Details

01:55 Calibration -some darks with LUCI 1 & 2

• luci1.20170417.0078-0082 , luci2.20170417.0007-0011 darks for Piconcelli program

02:39 we start the acquisition of Ricci A1 target.

• luci1.20170417.0083-0086 ==luci2.20170417.0012-0015
• the PI required to put the target at -80'' for the center of the slit, the TO have to do the offset manually.
• 03:07 error doing the manually offset to center in X the source.
• there are problems to do offset async from the software, the TO do it manually
• at this position is not possible to do the observation, the TO moves the source up of 1 arcsec.

03:27 we start to the acquisition of the scientific data

• luci1.20170417.0087-0095 , luci2.20170417.0016-0024
