To:sot_shift from: Dan Schwartz date: 02 Jul 10, 10:00 EDT Subject: SOT shift report 2010-07-02 L3998 -------- See http://asc.harvard.edu/acis/SOT_reports/sot-shift.html, or /proj/web-cxc/htdocs/acis/SOT_reports/Jul_02_2010_L3998.txt. Shift L3998. Start at 183:12:00 GMT = 08:00am 02 Jul EDT End 10:00am 02 Jul SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 183.) PLAN ---- Continue running load JUN2810A. Finish this load with obsid 11026, an ACIS-S observation of the globular cluster Terzan 3 to test formation of X-ray binaries in low density cores. Then start interrupt load JUL0210A with the ToO obsid 11105, an ACIS-S observation of the short GRB100628 as part of an effort for unbiased identifications of the host galaxies. Then do obsid 11792, an ACIS-I observation of CAMPBE to try to identify the counterparts to the unknown class of "radio transients." NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day. No DSN issues. Ops DSN server (OPSIM1) failed leading to extremely slow command track response. Seems like a network issue. Worked around using OPSIM2 as DNS server. Currently working to get both machines back to normal configuration. The remaining segment of JUL0210A products was uplinked, on-board loads good until 185:23:01. The JUL0510B products, rerun to be in continuity with the interrupt load, were released yesterday. Reviews are all good, expect Flight Director sign-off this morning. Sun is very quiet. X-ray and proton monitors at background levels.
