To:sot_shift from: Dan Schwartz date: 16 Sep 2011, 10:00 EDT Subject: SOT shift report 2011-09-16 L4439 -------- See http://asc.harvard.edu/acis/SOT_reports/sot-shift.html, or /proj/web-cxc-dmz/htdocs/acis/SOT_reports/Sep_16_2011_L4439.txt Shift L4439. Start at 259:12:00 GMT = 08:00am 16 Sep EDT End 10:00am 16 Sep SOT Lead DAS (Times will be given in GMT on day 259.) PLAN ---- Continue running load SEP1211B. Finish OBSID 13392, an ACIS-I observation of the outskirts of the cluster of galaxies A133, to investigate the transition to the smooth, relaxed state of the gas and galaxies in the core. Then do OBSID 12150, an ACIS-I GTO observation of the gamma-ray pulsar PSR J1028-5819 to test models of pulsar and pulsar wind nebula emission. Then continue the A 133 program with OBSID'S 13451 and 13518. Then into perigee passage and the end of the SEP1211 schedule. NOTES/ISSUES/PROBLEMS --------------------- From the 9am status meeting: Three supports over the past day. No issues. One stored command sequence uplinked to start the SEP1911A schedule, on-board loads good until 262:06:17. Backup OCC demo was successful yesterday. CAP review at 3pm today on 1165# for the generic Long Duration ACIS CTI runs. ACE soft protons are increasing very slowly and slightly. A CME from Sept 14 may hit today. We should keep watch, but I don't expect an SCS-107 threat. Quick look data: OBSID Target Instr.
