APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday October 6, 2007 (MJD 54380) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Shannon Watters Kaike Pan ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- A wonderful astronomical night: Photometric sky and good seeing condition. we finished segue bright plates: 2621, 2624, and 2805. and one segue faint plates: 2323. Got decent signals on other two segue faint plates: 2822 (S/N*2 at 18) and 2826 (S/N*2 at 37). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All systems checked and working. Spectrograph focus set for ~11.5C. Night: ----- 01:30Z cart 7 plt 2621. FK 5 used to find the field. 01:45Z precalib 01:55Z start 15min science exposure. The plate was DONE with three exposures of a total 3100s integration time. 03:10Z Cart 8, plt 2323 (segue fiant). SOGTF. The plate was DONE with 6 exposures of a total 7600s integration time. 06:05Z cart 6, plt 2624. SOGTF. The plate was DONE with one 1200s exposure combined with signal obtained on mjd 54333. 06:45Z cart 4, plt 2822 (segue faint) SOGTF. got two 25 min exposures on this plate. The plate was not done yet. 08:00Z cart 2, plate 2805. SOGTF. The plate was DONE with three exposure of a total integration time of 2800s. 09:25Z cart 1, plt 2826. FK5 used for the field. Because temperature was droping and that cartridge 1 requires 2000 steps lower than other cartridges on SP1. We moved piston by -2000 on SP1 after the first exposure. we obtained lowest S/N*2 of 37 with a total exposure time of 7200s. 12:15Z we did a force fill on spectro 12:20Z endNight finished. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7028 22:39Z 22:43Z 100 O 64.14 65.13 1 ignore 7029 22:44Z 23:04Z 100 O 65.44 70.41 41 ignore ---=== IMAGING RUN DETAILS ===--- ---=== SKIPPY RESULTS ===--- Run Frame nFrames stars muErr muRms nuErr nuRms rot az el --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---=== LTMATCH RESULTS ===--- Run Field nFields alt az nGood rowMean rowSig colMean colSig rot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ---=== SPECTROSCOPY DATA SUMMARY ===--- Summary Checked (y/n): Yes QA Procedures Done (y/n): Yes UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 46547, plate -9999 ------- 22:42 46547 0.0 bias ----- sequence 46548, plate 2621 ------- 22:52 46548 10.0 flat 22:54 46549 2.0 arc 22:57 46550 3.0 arc 23:00 46551 3.0 arc ----- sequence 46552, plate -9999 ------- 23:25 46552 0.0 bias ----- sequence 46552, plate 2621 ------- 23:36 46553 2.0 arc 23:39 46554 2.0 arc 00:18 46555 10.0 flat 00:21 46556 2.0 arc ----- sequence 46557, plate -9999 ------- 01:14 46557 0.0 bias ----- sequence 46558, plate 2621 ------- 18.1 10.1 16.8 16.3 01:50 46558 10.0 flat 01:52 46559 2.0 arc 02:12 46560 901.0 target 02:37 46561 1201.0 target 02:57 46562 1003.0 target 03:00 46563 10.0 flat 03:03 46564 2.0 arc ----- sequence 46565, plate 2323 ------- 79.2 50.1 85.1 57.4 03:16 46565 10.0 flat 03:19 46566 2.0 arc 03:37 46567 900.0 target 04:05 46568 1502.0 target 04:33 46569 1500.0 target 04:36 46570 10.0 flat 04:39 46571 2.0 arc 05:10 46572 1500.0 target 05:38 46573 1500.0 target 05:53 46574 701.0 target 05:55 46575 10.0 flat 05:58 46576 2.0 arc ----- sequence 46577, plate 2624 ------- 2.7 3.7 12.8 6.6 06:10 46577 10.0 flat 06:13 46578 2.0 arc 06:36 46579 1200.0 target ----- sequence 46580, plate 2822 ------- 31.7 17.5 32.4 21.7 06:48 46580 10.0 flat 06:51 46581 2.0 arc 07:20 46582 1501.0 target 07:47 46583 1501.0 target 07:51 46584 10.0 flat 07:53 46585 2.0 arc ----- sequence 46586, plate 2805 ------- 16.0 -- 21.3 -- 08:08 46586 10.0 flat 08:11 46587 2.0 arc 08:29 46588 900.0 target 08:47 46589 900.0 target 09:07 46590 1002.0 target 09:10 46591 10.0 flat 09:12 46592 2.0 arc ----- sequence 46593, plate 2826 ------- 09:27 46593 10.0 flat 09:30 46594 2.0 arc 09:59 46595 1500.0 target 10:30 46596 1501.0 target 10:58 46597 1500.0 target 11:01 46598 10.0 flat 11:04 46599 2.0 arc 11:32 46600 1501.0 target 11:55 46601 1200.0 target 11:58 46602 10.0 flat 12:00 46603 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 02:00Z 7 2621 98.80 0.0029 54.02 0.0052 255.51 0.0149 1.000420 04:00Z 8 2323 7.08 0.0022 63.44 0.0038 185.94 0.0321 1.000370 06:19Z 6 2624 -5.64 0.0016 52.30 0.0038 175.22 0.0234 1.000240 06:54Z 4 2822 -56.58 0.0015 76.90 0.0016 129.24 0.0485 1.000100 08:14Z 2 2805 55.24 0.0022 50.63 0.0038 224.08 0.0403 1.000160 09:37Z 1 2826 23.06 0.0048 61.97 0.0021 199.38 0.0349 1.000210 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01:15Z 7 0 1.00000 0 1258 0 121 30.0 12.3 14 254 02:21Z 7 2621 1.00042 -4148 -2477 -200 97 58.5 11.5 15 264 -- 1.5 04:00Z 8 2323 1.00039 -3851 -2168 -125 7 63.4 10.9 16 269 -- 1.4 06:19Z 6 2624 1.00024 -2370 -938 -150 -6 52.3 9.9 16 294 -- 1.4 06:54Z 4 2822 1.00010 -988 179 -125 -57 76.9 9.6 11 270 -- 1.2 08:14Z 2 2805 1.00016 -1580 -229 -100 55 50.7 8.9 10 279 -- 1.5 09:38Z 1 2826 1.00021 -2074 -644 -75 23 62.0 7.7 14 288 -- 2.0 ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 22:23Z 60 42 15 258 (WSW) 842 -
