APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Sunday May 13, 2007 (MJD 54234) ---=== OBSERVING TEAM ===--- Swing: Viktor Malanushenko Observers: Elena Malanushenko, Dan Orawetz ---=== OBSERVING PLAN ===--- Science! ---=== OBSERVING SUMMARY ===--- IClear and almost photometric for whole night. We did spectroscopy and finished 6 plates: four chunk (2599,2663, 2748, and 2753) and two seguefaint (2569 and 2195). ---=== OBSERVING LOG ===--- Afternoon: ---------- Afternoon checkout went smoothly. No problems to report. Spectro focus has been adjusted to night temperature T=+8.5C with cartridge #8. 01:00Z - Began ventilation. Doors and louvers opened, fans on. Cartridge #2 has been mounted. Night: ----- 02:05Z - Enclosure off 02:30Z. Cartridge 2, plate 2569, seguefaint with priority 4. Previous observed signal is 33.8 in r1 camera. FSonGTF, T=11C, seeing 1.4" 03:03Z preCalibs 03:12 Z Science with 1200 sec exposure 03:34 Z with 1200sec 03: 57 Z with 800 sec The expiration time for this plate is 03:59Z and we observe the plate 15 min after expiration time. 04:14 Z postCalibs The plate is DONE with tonight's s/n=17.6 and total 51.4. 04:23 Z Cartridge 3 plate 2599, chunk FSonGTF, T=10.5C, seeing 1.3" We had problem to adjust the scale for this cart yesterday. Today it works good without any problem. 04:28 Z preCalibs 04:36 Z Science with 1200 sec exposure 04:54 Z with 900 sec 5:12Z - 900 sec 5:30Z 700 sec The plate is DONE with s/n=15.2 5:50Z Cartridge 4 Plate 2663, chunk FSonGTF, T=10.6, seeing 1.3" 06:00Z preCalibs 6:06Z Science with 900 sec 6:24 Z with 900 6:42 Z with 750 The plate is DONE with s/n=15.3 7:02Z Cartridge 5 plate 2748, chunk FSonGTF, T=10.7C, seeing 1.5" 7:06 Z preCalib 7:13Z Science with 900 sec 7:31Z with 900 sec 7:48Z with 750 sec The plate is DONE with s/n=14.7 8:09Z Cartridge 6 plate 2753, chunk FSonGTF, T=12C, seeing 1.2" 8:16Z preCalib 8:23 Z Science with 900 sec 8:41 Z with 900 sec 8:59 with 1000 sec. PostCal is recommended but we replaced the cartridge by that time. The plate is DONE with s/n=14.9. 9:24Z Cartridge 8 plate 2195 segueFaint . The plate has previous signal 31.9. 9:24 Z preCalib. 9:35Z Science with 90 sec exposure 9:53Z - 900 sec 10:11Z - 900 sec 10:29 postCalibration.
