Title: |
|
MIPS Off-axis Glints |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Objective: |
|
Search for scattered light and glints from stars out of the field-of-view. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
This tests the sky observing paths rather than contamination of MIPS darks (see othe scattered light proposal for that). |

Description: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
including flow / state diagram |
|
|
Using an extremely bright source like IRC+10216 or equivalent, take 4 scans |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
beginning ~5" outside the field of view and extending to 3 degrees away. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Use the medium scan mode (40-second per point). |
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Place in Schedule: |
|
|
After aperture door is opened. |
|

|

|
|
(relative to water shed events) |

Required Conditions: |
|
|
Telescope must be fully cold at 5.5K. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Basic MIPS functionality must have been confirmed. |

description |
|
|
Any operational constraints about bright objects just outside the field-of-view will be understood. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
can proceed in parallel with other activity |
|
|
|
|
no, requires dedicated pointing. |
|
|
|
|
must outcome be confirmed before next event / test /activity |
|
|
|
|
no |
|
|
|
|
method of confirmation (sensor TLM, data analysis, etc.) |
|
|
|
|
data analysis |
|
|
|
|
estimate of data turn around if required for confirmation |
|
|
|
|
N/A |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Unique or included in planned AOT? |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Uses the scan map AOT. |

Contingency Plan: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"What if..." |
|
|
|
|
If test fails it should be repeated. |
