Please feel free to add your own preference. This will be discussed in a teleconf at a later date.

1. Planets

  • Mars, Venus for photometric calibration (primary calibrators)

2. Usual bright quasars

  • for image quality and linearity checks

3. List of bright ultracompact HII regions

  • for photometric calibration checks (secondary calibrators)

4. Extended emission from

  • Herschel new sources
  • Archeops bright cores
  • bright galaxies M87 (again), M82, others
  • less bright NGC1068 22mJy at 1.3mm rising to 36 at 3mm
  • --> Need fast speed scanning to reduce 1/f residual noise

5. Faint quasars in the 10 mJy range at 1mm (use Omont's list):

  • test detectability in faint source mode: e.g.
  • J075618.14+410408.6 z= 5.09 20.15 1.3 mm 5.5 ± 0.5 Wang et al 2008, ApJ, 135, 1201
  • J092721.82+200123.7 z= 5.77 19.87g 1.3 mm 5.0 ± 0.8 mJy 3.5 mm: 0.12 ± 0.03 mJy
  • IRAS F10214+4724 = SDSS J102434.56+470909.5 1.3mm: 10 mJy
  • H1413+517 14h15m46.240s +11d29m43.40s z=2.558 1.3mm 18+-2 mJy

6 Cluster of galaxies: RXJ1347-1145, A665, A2163 and CL0016+16

  • If sensitivity allows demonstrate the ability to map clusters (one of the main scientific goals of this camera).
