Sequencer Site SIRTF IOC Activity c. 2002

CAID: MIPS-280 Title: Super Resolution of Proto-stellar Region
 
System: MIPS Principal: krs Deputy: alberto
Objective:  
Verify scientific validity of MIPS Photometry
pipeline products.
Source could be SVS-13 in HH 7-11 region.
Possible ECO.
 
Description:
Acquire normal photometry observations of an
outflow region using the MIPS Photometry AOT 		
in the Large Field mode.		
	3s @ 24 microns (15cycles), 3s @ 70 and 160
microns (15 cycles each), 	
	large field, fine scale @ 70 microns. 	
		
Can be the same as:	Evaluate fully supported 
AOTs
(MIPS Photometry/SR)
		
 
Day:   78.1770833333358 Suggested Order:   R800
 
Must be preceded by these activities (list by CAID):   MIPS-320
 
Place in Schedule:   After aperture door open After CTA/instrument cool down and all other instrument testing is complete. For 160um, the backgrd radiance must be less than 5.4E-13 W/cm2/sr (< 6 - 7 K). After Photometry AOT functionality testing is complete. Can be concurrent with other AOT/instrument tests.

Outcome


Estimate of data turn around:   0 hours
 
Description: Fully calibrated MIPS Photometry data products in three bands.
 
Can proceed in parallel with other activity: No
 
Must outcome be confirmed before next activity: No
 
Method of Confirmation:   Data analysis
 
 
Success criteria:
 
Contingency plan:  Revisit pipeline and/or AOT design depending on the nature of failure.

Additional Comments:
Required Conditions: CTA and instrument at nominal operating temperature for 160 micron band (mirror at 6 K). Note: This region has very bright IR sources -- this test can investigate how much of an impact there will be in an AOR.
