=> updated among few other things with (v3..v5) the correct project name for this run: t21, and warning about the need for the correct project name for NCS, some typos, (v6) information about topology, backend choice, scanning speed.

Here is a collection of Pako scripts to gain time and have a reference on the observations we will do (to use them rename the files without the .txt, 2nd version updated with slower mapping speed to minimize tracking errors, 3rd version include pako line continuation sign (-)):

[[attachment:OTF_pointing.pako]] => OTFMAP 80''x 60'' in 16 subscan x 8 s = 2.1+0.3 ~= 3 min (10"/s) with 2.6 samples (subscan step) per convolved 1mm HPBW (for pointing & focus)

[[attachment:OTF_geometry.pako]] => OTFMAP 240''x 220'' in 56 subscan x 16 s = 15+3 ~= 18 min (15"/s) with 2.6 samples (subscan step) per convolved 1mm HPBW (for the array geometry = pixels map in sky)

[[attachment:OTF_ps.pako]] => OTFMAP 140''x 90'' in 19 subscan x 14 s = 4+1 ~= 5 min (10"/s) with 2 sample (subscan step) per convolved 1mm HPBW (for point source observations)

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
  • 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&Cox + Herschel 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

  • 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:

  • Main target MS0451, 04h54m11.0s, -03d00'53", z=0.55, y0=3E-4, rc=60" seen by ; Bolocam, ACT, CARMA
  • other targets include
    • RXJ1347-1145 (maybe too close to the sun), A665, A2163 and CL0016+16
    If sensitivity allows demonstrate the ability to map clusters (one of the main scientific goals of this camera).
