Back to list of day to day logbook of observations
2015-10-12
Following not updated
 .Cryostat Temperature: 170mK cooling down slowly   Modulation frequency: 10kHz 1mm, 5kHz 2mm  Opacity is measured with the new taumeter at 225 GHz   Nasmyth offsets : 0, 0  Set Focus : we start at -2mm (not at all optimised, first task is try to improve on this!)  Quick description of the session: Test the Pako sequences and data flows.
