Night Center: 00:33
Handover: 00:23 (take into account extreme changes between focal stations)
ISA: D. Thompson (Remote Room)
- Complete LUCI-2/AGW-2 On-Sky Checks - high priority - J. Hill/D. Thompson - 1-2 hours
- See UT-2020-01-30 Wiki page for gory details
- Files located on:
- RM507-5/4: /home/observer/share/Service_Observing/Eng_Jan_2020/LUCI2_AGW_Checkout
- OBS-N: /home/lbto/Service_Observing/Eng_Jan_2020/LUCI2_AGW_Checkout
- RM507-5/4: /home/observer/share/Service_Observing/Eng_Jan_2020/LUCI2_AGW_Checkout
- Verify daytime cable fix did not incur other issues - check off-axis guiding at various distances in the patrol field
- Verify S-H spots are centered - adjust if needed
- Measure Center of Rotation - adjust if needed
- LUCI Detector Rotator Center (2 opposing PAs, 2 pairs if time)
- Verify Rotator ZP with Astrometric Masks - tolerates up to 1.2" seeing
- INAF mask had 3 stars - only 1 was properly centered, updated mask was done wrong and did not work on-sky (PI used wrong version of LMS)
- Rotator offset gave two different answers depending on machine used
- RM507-5: Angle = -0.0479 err RA =0.073 err Dec = 0.123
- OBS-4: Angle = -0.00072 Err RA = 0.073 and Err Dec = 0.134
- Amended mask run by D. Thompson Angle = 0.09366, err RA=0.076 err Dec=0.051 - done offline UT 03-Feb-2020
- Current Rotator ZP is 177.05 (this value was confirmed as the one used in 2019B - large offsets seemed to work for telluric)
- Take Confirmatory Transform Data - Stone Field - up to 1.5" seeing on DIMM
- Send an Active preset to Stone D or Stone E, collimate
- Then run transform_collect as in instructions
- Config for LUCI-2
- lists are located here on OBS-N: /home/lbto/idl/wfsc/transform/lists
- use:
- Stone_D_LUCI_PA0_short.list
- Stone_Em135_0.list ( don't have to complete full list)
- AO / IRTC Work - AO on-sky data collection tasks - pending release of IRTC (computer issues) and confirmation from AO group they need/want time - IN Parallel with LUCI-2/AGW-2 work above - D. Miller
- Switch to MODS for D-time - Rollover from Previous Night Plans
- Files are located here: /home/lbto/Service_Observing/Eng_Jan_2020
- Each PI has their own sub-folder, each folder has a README and finder charts
- All scripts have been generated from the OT, but original OT files are in each directory
- There is a common MODS calibrations folder - includes the Spectro-photometric Standard G191B2b - up for all of first half
- There are 4 pdf files that show visibility for the targets over the next two nights
- Spectrophotometric Standard: G191b2b - Dual Grating Only
- If IRTC work cannot be done:
- M33-7 - MODS-Bino visible until 10pm - M. Edwards
- 01 33 35.50 +30 39 29.0
- if seeing < 0.8" 1.5 hours (thin cirrus OK) - 0.8" slit
- if seeing > 0.8" 2.5 hours (thin cirrus OK) - 1.0" slit
- M33-7 - MODS-Bino visible until 10pm - M. Edwards
- Once IRTC attempt is completed - OR - if IRTC not done (continue from M33-7):
- V392 - visible through handover - M. Wagner (preferred until 9:30)
- 06:09:57.453 12:12:25.15
- Seeing < 1.5" - thin cirrus acceptable
- 0.8" slit
- 0.75 hour
- NGC 2403-5 - visible through handover - M. Edwards
- 07 36 54.30 +65 36 07.5
- if seeing < 0.8" 1.5 hours (thin cirrus OK) - 0.8" slit
- if seeing > 0.8" 2.5 hours (thin cirrus OK) - 1" slit
- V2860 Ori - visible through handover - M. Wagner
- 06:09:57.453 12:12:25.15
- Seeing < 1.5" - thin cirrus acceptable
- 0.8" slit
- 0.75 hour
- V959 Mon- visible through handover M. Wagner
- 06:39:38.61 05:49:26.74
- Seeing < 1.5" - thin cirrus acceptable
- 0.8" slit
- 0.75 hour
- V435 CMa - low declination target - 9pm-handover - never rises above 35 elevation - M. Wagner
- 07:13:45.84 -21:12:31.3
- Seeing < 1.5" - thin cirrus acceptable
- 0.8" slit
- 0.75 hour
- V392 - visible through handover - M. Wagner (preferred until 9:30)
