To:sot_shift from: Dan Schwartz date: 03 Feb 10, 10:00 EST Subject: SOT shift report 2010-02-03 L3849 -------- See http://asc.harvard.edu/acis/SOT_reports/sot-shift.html, or /proj/web-cxc/htdocs/acis/SOT_reports/Feb_03_2010_L3849.txt. Shift L3849. Start at 034:13:00 GMT = 08:00am 03 Feb EST End 10:00am 03 Feb SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 034.) PLAN ---- Continue running load FEB0110B. Finish obsid 12063, an ACIS-S observation of the Magellanic cloud supernova remnant SNR E0519-69.0, to study expansion of ejecta and shocks in conjunction with HST observations. Then do obsid 11068, an ACIS-I observation of GS0836-429 to obtain a precise position and thence an optical or IR counterpart. Then ACIS-I obsid's 11631, 11629, 11637, as part of the survey of low redshift galaxy groups to measure AGN content and study the relation of the AGN to the environment. NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- ACIS focal plane is warm, -118.9, coming out of perigee, but we are observing with ACIS-S so not a gain issue. From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day. No issues. One stored command sequence uplinked, on-board loads good untio 038:05:15. Pre-approved CAP 425H for the EIA sequencer self-test was run successfully yesterday. Load review for FEB0810A will be held at 2pm today. ACE solar protons are at background level, the sun is expected to be extremely quite for the next few days. OFLS 11.7.5 passed benchmark testing, is ready to be turned over to FOT/MP for testing.
