CRDS-52 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2011 July 19 (DOY 200) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crds52.skd Nominal Start: 17:30 U.T. on 2011 July 19 (DOY 200) first observation at 17:30 U.T. on 2052-474 Hh-Hb-Ke-Yg Duration: 24 hours Nominal Stop: 17:30 U.T. on 2011 July 20 (DOY 201) last observation at 17:19 U.T. on 1935-692 Hh-Hb-Ke-Yg Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of obs Occupation Code HARTRAO J 112 HOBART12 112 KATH12M 80 YARRA12M 105 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 112 Total number of scans in the schedule: 562 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. Schedule ======== This is a new schedule generated by Alan Fey using sked. Correlation =========== This experiment will be correlated at the WACO Correlator. Tapes should be shipped to Washington, DC as soon after the experiment as practical. Special procedures ================== None Summary ======= The following listing is a summary of the observations in this schedule. Average number of obs. per baseline per source(normalized by up-time) = 6.3 Min = 1.6 Max = 16.0 (Baseline Hh-Ke on 1624-617) RMS = 3.3 Total time: 1440 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
