Subject: 2.5m obslog 20110611 (MJD 55724) From: snedden@apo.nmsu.edu Date: Sun, 12 Jun 2011 11:43:22 +0000 (UTC) APACHE POINT OBSERVATORY SDSS 2.5M OBSERVING LOG Saturday June 11, 2011 (MJD 55724) ---- Observing Team ---- Dmitry Bizyaev Steph Snedden APOGEE-er Matt Shetrone ---- Observing Plan ---- APOGEE commissioning with MARVELS co-observing when possible. Start training observers on APOGEE instrument control. ---- Observing Summary ---- A clear but smoky night with overall good seeing. The mirrors will probably need a CO_2 cleaning again very soon. Observed the following: Cartridge 1, plate 4822B - APG_VOD3_redrill - APG+MARV MARVELS Fibers 33,34 missing spectra. Cartridge 3, plate 4823A - APGS_N5466_redrill - APG+MARV MARVELS missing spectra in fibers 45/46, 107/108, MARVELS fibers 49/50, 117/118 have very weak spectra. Cartridge 7, plate 4817A - APGS_M107 redrill - APG+MARV Cartridge 5, plate 4931A - APOGEE only Cartridge 6, plate 4939A - APG_030-04 - APG+MARV Cartridge 9, plate 4940A - APG_090-04 - APG + MARV Started in twilight, so only observed APOGEE Details of the exposures are in the log body. ---- Observing Log ---- Afternoon: --------- 00:55Z - ThAr lamp on BOSS bias and dark taken on cartridge 4. Guider dark taken. Dmitry got the APOGEE scripts from the wiki and ran the nightly calibration set. 01:29Z - Ventilation started, doors opened. Telescope checkout was without problems. Cartridge 1 mounted 02:14Z - opened enclosure. Night: ----- 03:04Z - Cartridge 1, plate 4822B - APG_VOD3_redrill - APG+MARV --------------------------------------------------------------- Used spiralPattern in bright twilight to find guide stars. Will put back the calib offsets on the next plate. Started both APOGEE and MARVELS exposures at 10 degree twilight.
