Tables (from 2026/03/24 ~15:00 LT to 2025/03/31 ~10:30:00 LT)

We wish to do the following:

start in total power: point, focus (!), point, calib_1scan, beam maps (at least 2)
analyze focus difference between Ar1 and Ar2
analyze beam maps and produce DAFs RPPs for the new Ar3. Install the new RPPs for Ar3
analyze the focus difference between Ar1 and Ar3
perform many focus sequences to have some statistics
polarimetry beam maps
more total power beam maps
out of focus total power beam maps
total power deep field (HLS 091828), to derive the new, final NEFD of NIKA2 TP
? maybe polarimetry deep field (3C286, M87, 3C353, ...?) to derived IQU NEFD of NIKA2-Pol
084-25 polarimetry
140-25, 146-25 polarimetry
196-25 total power
test long subscans with our favorite, total power
C/2025 R3 Panstarrs, polarimetry
deep field 03h32m31.75s −27d46m51.5s, total power
test Sgr A* polarimetry calib_1scan
... other wishes ...
