APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Thursday July 17, 2008 (MJD 54665) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Kaike Pan (observer) Dmitry Bizyaev (observer) Dan Oravetz (swing) Ben Weaver (NYU) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The night was cloudy and rainy at the beginning. We got a chance to open enclosure from ~ 5 to 9 Z. We finished cartridges 7 (pl. 3009, single), 9 (3011, single), & 6 (3012, single). Starange behavior of weather page at the morning (see log). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: --------- sdsshost2.apo.nmsu.edu % df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on /dev/sda3 142G 104G 32G 77% / /dev/sda1 99M 30M 64M 33% /boot /dev/sdb1 917G 663G 208G 77% /data sdssfiles1:/data1/data 1.5T 770G 624G 56% /files MONX3 still hangs during the start up. Fritz is aware of this problem. All systems checked and working properly. Night: ----- Clouds and accidental rain at the evening and in the first part of night. 05:01Z enclosure off, started ventilation, opened doors and louvers. 05:10Z cart. 7 is on , plate 3009 GSalmostOGTF, but fk5 used to be sure focus loop precal 05:46Z science 7: chain of 5 exposures 06:03Z science 12: chain of 5 exposures 06:23Z postcal --- 06:31Z cart. 9 plate 3011 mounted GSOGTF, focus loop precal 06:56Z science 7 : chain of 5 exposures 07:11Z science 12: chain of 5 exposures 07:29Z science 15 - because we have some clouds in field, we do additional 3x15 sec exposures. postcal --- 07:45Z cart.6 plate 3012 mounted GSOGTF precal 08:07Z science 7: chain of 5 exposures 08:22Z science 12: chain of 5 exposures postcal -- 08:53Z cart. 8 plate 3015 mounted (dual) fk5 used, the star is in the middle of its fiber. Guide stars are faint. Suddenly, humidity jumps up over 85%. We closed the telescope at 09:08Z. In about 40 min the weather information for 3.5m and 2.5m got very much different, humidity was 72% and 86%, respectively. We noticed nevertheless that the due point difference for 2.5m is changing any way but once per several minutes, and is below the 3C limit. It was pretty wet close to the enclosure, so we decided not to open. The humidity warning cleared off at ~10:22Z. 10:17Z endNight rejoiced. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame ------------------------------------------------------------------------- 7636 00:37Z 01:00Z 100 O 14.64 20.34 52 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): QA Procedures Done (y/n): UT Exp Time flavor comment (S/N)^2 totals ========================================== b1 r1 b2 r2 ----- sequence 54074, plate -9999 ------- 00:39 54074 0.0 bias ----- sequence 54075, plate 3015 ------- 01:10 54075 10.0 flat 01:13 54076 2.0 arc 01:19 54077 2.0 arc 01:22 54078 2.0 arc ----- sequence 54079, plate -9999 ------- 01:45 54079 0.0 bias ----- sequence 54080, plate 3009 ------- 05:42 54080 10.0 flat 05:44 54081 2.0 arc 05:49 54082 8.0 target 05:52 54083 8.0 target 05:56 54084 8.0 target 05:59 54085 7.0 target 06:02 54086 8.0 target 06:05 54087 13.0 target 06:09 54088 13.0 target 06:12 54089 12.0 target 06:16 54090 13.0 target 06:19 54091 13.0 target 06:23 54092 13.0 target 06:26 54093 10.0 flat 06:28 54094 2.0 arc ----- sequence 54095, plate 3011 ------- 06:50 54095 10.0 flat 06:53 54096 2.0 arc 06:58 54097 8.0 target 07:01 54098 8.0 target 07:04 54099 8.0 target 07:07 54100 8.0 target 07:10 54101 8.0 target 07:13 54102 13.0 target 07:18 54103 13.0 target 07:21 54104 13.0 target 07:24 54105 13.0 target 07:27 54106 13.0 target 07:31 54107 16.0 target 07:34 54108 16.0 target 07:37 54109 16.0 target 07:40 54110 10.0 flat 07:43 54111 2.0 arc ----- sequence 54112, plate 3012 ------- 08:03 54112 10.0 flat 08:05 54113 2.0 arc 08:09 54114 8.0 target 08:12 54115 8.0 target 08:15 54116 8.0 target 08:18 54117 8.0 target 08:21 54118 7.0 target 08:24 54119 13.0 target 08:28 54120 12.0 target 08:31 54121 13.0 target 08:34 54122 13.0 target 08:37 54123 13.0 target 08:41 54124 10.0 flat 08:43 54125 2.0 arc ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE I ===--- Time Instrument Az Alt Rot Scale pos offset pos offset pos offset ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 05:52Z 7 3009 171.88 0.0041 52.33 0.0027 -20.04 -0.0061 1.000230 06:56Z 9 3011 75.77 0.0032 54.81 0.0042 239.40 0.0201 1.000300 08:07Z 6 3012 74.96 0.0032 59.33 0.0042 240.20 0.0201 1.000300 ---=== TELESCOPE OFFSETS AND SCALE II ===--- ---=== FOCUS LOG ===--- setmir piston Temp Wind Time Inst scale M1 M2 Foc Az Alt (C) MPH Dir filt fwhm ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 05:52Z 7 3009 1.00023 -2271 -766 -60 172 52.3 14.7 1 98 -- 1.3" 06:56Z 9 3011 1.00030 -2963 -1426 -140 76 54.9 14.7 1 98 -- 1.2" 08:07Z 6 3012 1.00030 -2963 -1358 -60 75 59.3 15.3 1 273 -- 1.1" ---=== WEATHER LOG ===--- Wind Time Temp F Dewp F MPH Direction Dust DIMM Sky 00:42Z 57 45 19 60 (ENE) 500 - clouds 01:14Z 60 42 15 44 (NE) 253 - clouds 01:44Z 60 41 21 35 (NE) 329 - clouds 01:52Z 59 43 22 39 (NE) 266 - '' 02:22Z 61 41 21 54 (NE) 278 - '' 02:52Z 64 39 11 25 (NNE) 285 - '' 03:22Z 63 40 1 344 (NNW) 294 - '' 03:53Z 60 42 1 182 (S) 307 - '' 04:24Z 59 43 3 124 (SE) 271 - '' 04:55Z 60 42 4 118 (ESE) 322 - less clouds 05:25Z 58 47 6 114 (ESE) 603 - '' 05:56Z 58 46 0 84 (E) 970 - '' 06:27Z 59 44 1 250 (WSW) 499 - '' 06:58Z 58 47 4 185 (S) 794 - '' 07:29Z 57 49 2 148 (SSE) 952 - '' 08:00Z 57 49 0 147 (SSE) 1026 - '' 08:30Z 59 46 1 261 (W) 853 - '' 09:01Z 56 50 2 107 (ESE) 1039 - '' 09:32Z 56 52 1 123 (ESE) 1063 - '' 10:03Z 57 50 0 124 (SE) 986 - '' ---=== TELESCOPE STATUS ===--- 04:58z - Began ventilation.
