P70-014: Probing the Geometry of Fast Extragalactic Transients

P.I.: Thomas Killestein

This is a ToO/SoftToO program using ALFOSC.

Instrument setup

  • ALFOSC

  • Lin-Pol-imaging: Calcite + FAPOL half-wave-plate

  • Spectro-long-slit: Grism#4

Morning instructions

  • Run calibrations: alfosc-calibs ALHmddnnnn

Observing instructions

  • On the Queue page, make sure the OB-generated observing script is written to disk, or else 'compile'

  • Go to directory: cd ~/obs/scripts/70-014/ and do ls -lrt

  • Start the requested OB generated script

Proposal Date Time Type Targets Files Comments Status
70-014 2024-10-01 00:28 SoftToO AT2024wpp ALHj010247 - ALHj010267 Not the best weather, but the target was observed successfully. Data was shared with proposal ID 70-018, as they had the same target in their schedule. Standard observation is not included in the time spent as it is shared with three programs. Observed
70-014 2024-10-04 00:45 SoftToO SP1550+330, AT2024wpp ALHj040079 - ALHj040085, ALHj040140 - ALHj040160 Shared standard from other proposal. Shared science data with 70-018 Observed
70-014 2024-10-07 00:48 SoftToO Feige110, AT2024wpp, GOTO0650 ALHj070259 - ALHj070263, ALHj070283 - ALHj070295, ALHj070343 - ALHj070347 Observed in clear skies with seeing around 1.0" Observed
70-014 2024-10-10 01:40 SoftToO AT2024wpp, HD19445 ALHj100120 - ALHj100127, ALHj100129 - ALHj100133, ALHj100140 - ALHj100143 Clear skies and subarcsec seeing. Observed
70-014 2024-10-14 00:00 SoftToO No observations due to bad weather Failed
70-014 2024-10-18 00:32 SoftToO AT2024wpp, HD19445 ALHj180175 - ALHj180182 ; ALHj180203 - ALHj180206 Target observed with clear skies and seeing around 1.7 arcsec, and shared with 68-501, 70-018. Observed

 

The above information is collected from the ToO/Mon reports that have been created by the observer.
