APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Wednesday November 28, 2007 (MJD 54433) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Elena Malanushenko (day) Dmitry Bizyaev (observer) Dan Oravetz (observer) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- SN Science! SEGUE Spectroscopy. And fighting with leftovers from Thanksgiving in refrigerator (Mark's order). ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- SN stripe 82 N imaged from 133 to -123 lambdas (includig ramps). Signal was obtained on plate 2807. A message was sent to Brian Yanny with question if it has been done yet. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- All equipment are checked and work properly. Spectro collimation is set for ~3.2C. Diskspace is 216 G on /data and 97 G on /file. Ventilation is started at 23:15Z. Night: ------ 00:10Z imager mounted run 7201 - on-telescope bias run 7202 - SN science, THETAF = 0.0194 degrees, 69.67 arcsec muErr: -10.0", nuErr: -10.0" , see imaging details --- 10:02Z imager off, cartridge 9 plate 2807 mounted Fiducial corrections were high in AZ when telescope moved. We applied corrections few times. 2 times telescope didn't want to move at all: the axes were "Halted", whereas axis stop/axis init/track to_a_close_point didn't change this status. We attempted to move the telescope to cross more fiducials, after third attempt telescope moved we accepted the large correction, then it moved fine with proper semaphores and good small fiducials correction values. See values of fid. crossing in the "problems" section. 10:18Z gotofild again, no g.stars, no FK5. Spiral pattern applied. FK5 found well after this.
