Run80 data processing
Here we include the preliminary data reduction results of the re-commissioning NIKA2 run 80, as obtained at the telescope during this week (2026/03/24-31).
Focus difference between the three arrays
As of 2026/03/25 @01:25 UT.
The focus difference Ar1-Ar2 is roughly +1.00 mm.
The focus difference Ar3-Ar1 is roughly -0.05 mm.

Beam maps analysis
We have a new Ar3 and we need to characterize its geometry and its flat field. To this aim, on 2026/03/24 we took two beam maps focused on Ar1 (scans 20260324s169 and 177). The idea and hope is that the focus of Ar3 is roughly the same of that of Ar1, thanks to the March 10 intervention, and these beam maps will be good for our purpose.
We reduce the beam maps during the night between 2026/03/24 and 25.
Ar2 is out of focus and in order to be able to reduce it, we need to relax completely the constraints on its beam size and shape.
Ar1 is well on focus. The best beam map is 177. The other (169) has some problems at the lower edge for unknown reasons.
The Ar3 focus is decent. The array is missing Box S, as already known, and also several KIDs in Boxes M, N O (supposedly).
Below here you can see the geometry of the three Arrays as derived from the average of these two beam maps.
