APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Monday May 29, 2006 (MJD 53885) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Olena Malanushenko John Barentine Shannon Watters Mike Harvanek (swing) ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Blind you with Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- The sky was marginally photometric at the beginning of the night but we didn't have any imaging strips available so we started the night with spectroscopy. We finished 3 plates (2160, 1802, 1707). The sky remained photometric and the seeing ~1.4 so we switched to imaging at 07:10Z and partially observed strip 1188 S from mu=286 to mu=328 (including ramps). Integrated dust count for the night was 29,580. We don't need the mirror cleaned. ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Spectrograph collimation was checked but not adjusted. The collimation is currently set for a temperature of approximately 10 - 11 degrees C. No problems to report. Night: ------ 03:25Z Cart 5, plt 2160, tile 1556, chunk112. No GSOGTF; used FK5 in fiber 10 with offsetADR (A: 3, D: -3.5). Best focus around -180. Plate finished (exposures: 900, 900, 1050). 04:34Z Cart 2, plt 1802, tile 1316, chunk94. No GSOGTF; used FK5 in fiber 10. Finding the best focus was difficult. Plate finished (exsposures: 900, 900, 900). 05:46Z Cart 1, plt 1707, tile 1221, chunk87. GSOGTF. Plate finished (exposures: 900, 900, 940). 07:10Z Switched to imaging. 07:30Z Strip 1188 S; Run 6182. Skippy happy at frame 10. In focus at frame 22. Seeing is ~1.2. 07:40Z - Ramp started at mu=286, frame 32. 07:48Z - Science started at mu=288, frame 45, RA: 307.72 degrees. 10:18Z - Science ended at mu=325.7, frame 297, RA: 343.072 degrees. 10:28Z - Ramp ended at mu=328.2, frame 313 , RA: 344.47 degrees. (10 minutes after twilight) We didn't have time to finish the strip so ~22 degrees are left. The seeingRun labeled Frames 279 through 289 (mu=324.5 to 234.5) as acceptable seeing. The rest of the science frames were in good seeing. 10:35Z On telescope bias, Run 6183, 30 frames. We closed at 11:05Z. endNight finished happily. ---=== IMAGING RUN SUMMARY ===--- Run Time Stripe Lambda Last Flavor Comments Start End Begin End Frame
