| CAID: MIPS-313 | Title: 70um Narrow-Field Illum. Corr. | |
| System: MIPS | Principal: aalonso | Deputy: dfrayer |
| Objective: | Determine the illumination correction for the 70um narrow-field mode. |
| Description: | A 70um narrow-field photometry cluster-target AOR is specified with 3 second DCEs and 6 pointings in a rectangular pattern for a region of sky free of bright 70um point-sources. This observation will require about 18.5 minutes of observing time. |
| Day: 65.5666666666657 | Suggested Order: P500 | ||
| Must be preceded by these activities (list by CAID): | |||
| Place in Schedule: MIPS CE, CSMM, stim operation nominal. CTA and MIPS temperatures stable and within range. At 9K the CTA background falls below about 1% of the medium sky background, so the CTA contribution can then be neglected. | |||
| Priority: Necessary | |||
Conditions | |||
| Maximum telescope temperature: | 12 K | ||
| Minimum telescope temperature: | 5.5 K | ||
| Should activity be repeated if focus changes? | No Repeat if focus changes by 0 mm | ||
| Maximum absolute pointing uncertainty: | 3 arcsec (1 sigma radial) | ||
| Maximum precision offset uncertainty: | 1 arcsec (1 sigma radial) | ||
| Observatory configuration: | standard | ||
| Go/No Go criteria: | |||
Duration: 19 minutes
| | Real time downlink:
 
No | | |||
| Data Volume (uncompressed): 179.5 Mbits | |||
| List Blocks, AORs, SERs, IERs, or unique sequences required (uplink): | |||
| List Analysis tools required (downlink): standard pipeline | |||
| Estimate of data turn around: 24 hours | |||
| Description: Ilumination corrections at each CSMM position for the 70um narrow-field photometry AOT are constructed via median filtering and compared to look for changes in illumination vs. CSMM position. | |||
| Can proceed in parallel with other activity: No | |||
| Must outcome be confirmed before next activity: No | |||
| Method of Confirmation: data analysis | |||
| Success criteria: High S/N Cs are produced and do not exhibit residuals from sources. | |||
| Contingency plan: Re-observe at alternate field, observe for longer (10 second DCE) to increase S/N ratio. | |||
