Goals of the run : NIKA2 polarization run preparation notes
The document below in attached aims at giving the guidelines for the next commissioning phase of NIKA2 concerning the polarization channel. It is based on the experience we gained with NIKA and lists technical tests to be done and observational sources, which will be of interest for both the instrumental polarization characterization and the calibration of angle and degree of polarization.
Schedule of the run
June Telescope Schedule 24h/day Observations.
Staff of the run: table of the nights spent at the observatory for the NIKA2 collaboration members participating to the run (T = Tuesday, S = Saturday, 1 = night scheduled at the telescope, g = night in Granada office).
