Beam study using Saturn observation

  • Warning:

  • Saturn is extended (about 20 arcsec) so we expect the main beam to be very large.
  • Saturn is so bright that it saturates at the center.

  • The contours shown correspond to 1/10, 1/100, 1/1000 and 1/10000 of the maximum of the map (which is not well calibrated)
