Date: 2016 June 17 UT Observers: P. Garnavich, M. Fausnaugh, J. Zinn TO: David G. SA: Barry R. Moon phase: 3 days before Full Summary: No wind and photometric all night. Seeing was around 0.8 arcseconds for the first half of the night, and improved to 0.5 arcseconds near morning. Completed Programs (LUCI2): OSU_WASP103, UVa_BCD/HS2236+BDp144774 Calibrations: Evening darks, morning flats (lamps). *************************NOTE*********************************** MODS arcs and pixel flats were taken on June 07 UT, on one of the Director's nights. Following the SA's advice, we are recommending these for MODS calibrations during this run (sorry this was unclear from previous nights). Please contact us if additional MODS calibs are desired (can be taken tomorrow evening). Details (All times UT): ---------------------------------- Plan is LUCI2 all night---we are going after WASP103 02:02 -- Starting Darks. (Note that Darks inherited object name from last night, wise2345+31. Numbers are .0001 to .0040) 02:45 -- Opening. Skies are clear, no wind. 03:13 -- Acquiring WASP103. 3:45 -- Mask stars were not bright enough for alignment in sky image. Took anoth er exposure and used subtracted image for mask alignment. 04:00 -- Observing WASP103 Alignment is excellent. seeing is 0.8 arcseconds (GCS) and very steady 4k to 10k counts in the spectra, everything looks great. 06:07 -- Things continue without incident. Seeing is 0.6 arcseconds (GCS) RMS guiding errors are 0.09 arcseconds in X and Y 08:00 -- Seeing 0.65 arcseconds RMS guiding errors = 0.08 arcseconds (X), 0.10 arcseconds (Y) 10:04 -- Seeing 0.8 arcseconds RMS guiding errors = 0.10 arcseconds (X,y) 10:09 -- wavefront sensing stopped (shell RIPed). Have to allow the final nDIT to finish----these last few will have significantly larger FWHM (no longer collimating). 10:18 -- WASP103 finished, fixing up the active optics. 10:37 -- Acquiring UVa_BCD/HS2236 10:40 -- 18 degree twilight 10:51 -- Observing HS2236 Seeing 0.5 arcseconds 11:16 -- Acquiring BDp144774 11:27 -- Observing BDp144774 seeing 0.5 arcseconds 11:30 -- Closing 11:42 -- Running WASP103_flats Re-running flats, but with equal number of Darks (taken manually) Nevermind, we verified that the script was done correctly, 20 extra darks now exist, but after the flat lamp.
