NIKA, January 23th, 2014 / S4

Back to list of day to day logbook of observations

2014-01-23

  • We use both the manual log below and the tapas database that automatically fills scans table with the scan informations.
  • So please login with the t21 acount and its usual password (durc***9) to the TAPAS database.

  • Yesterday's scan are all in TAPAS (inserted by hand), but the auto fill problem is still there, so in real time we only see the Lissajous. So we keep a manual log below, but in a simplified table with the comments and only the most useful scan info.

Programm for today:

  • Focus and Beam maps (standard + Lissajou). Centered on the refence detector: #494 of the 2mm array (#5 of the 1mm array is very close to it).
  • Pointing session
  • Skydip
  • Mount polariser, take OTF and Skydip with it (Andrea has left, last day of Nicols, so necessary to test polar scripts today).

Remark for NIKA staff: Good data are on RAW_X9

Remark for Robert: we have a little bug with the IMBFITS production; those which are not there for now are indicated in the comments, and we will remove these comments when imbfits are produced
