Unfortunately this map was made quite out of focus in y,z, i.e. the derived numbers are representative only for out of focus data (RZ, Nov 26)

Back to the NIKA2 run 2 main page

  • Good weather (opacity of ~0.1) but still a lot of wind --> No observations

  • We reduced beam maps and updated geometries (skydip coefficients and kid selection)
  • We made an analysis on the Uranus beammap (20151124s171) to characterize the beam.
    • --> total beam profile and primary beam gaussian fit.

      --> integrated total beam and primary beam to compute the secondary beam fraction.

Unfortunately this map was made quite out of focus in y,z, i.e. the derived numbers are representative only for out of focus data (RZ, Nov 26)

  • NIKA2 is cold again. Arrival at the telescope of AB, JMP, BC, FR.
  • Installation of the new AMC card. New settings from Olivier to allow booting of 8 cards on CRATE 3, afterall we dichted one card because of sync problems
  • Some trouble to find the first resonances, but wizard Alain came and saved the day
  • Some nice skydips tau~0.3, but nice fit
  • First geometry on the sky, without a proper refkid at 1mm we can not use the cross for pointing and focus, so back to lissajous
  • First focus on 3C84, followed by geometry
  • Quick picture on the geometry:
