CRF-S5 (Southern Hemisphere Astrometry) 2005 March 16 (DOY 75) Notes prepared by Alan Fey, U.S. Naval Observatory Schedule name: crfs5.skd Nominal Start: 18:00 U.T. on 2005 March 16 (DOY 75) first observation at 18:00 U.T. on 1034-374 Hh-Pa Nominal Stop: 18:00 U.T. on 2005 March 17 (DOY 76) last observation at 17:57 U.T. on 1245-454 Hh-Pa Correlator: WACO at Washington, DC Station Codes # of tapes # of scans Occupation Code HARTRAO J 0.8 226 PARKES P 3.3 226 Total number of observations (delay measurements): 226 Total number of scans in the schedule: 226 Purpose ======= Astrometric observations to strenghten the ICRF in the Southern Hemisphere. There are 32 new sources; the remainder are ICRF Defining or Candidate sources. 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) = 42.2 Min = 25.3 Max = 68.9 (Baseline Hh-Pa on 0524-485) RMS = 11.3 Total time: 1441 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
