EUROPE-122 (EUROPEAN Geodetic VLBI Network session No.122) 2013 Mar 20-21 doy 079-080 Institute for Geodesy and GeoInformation of the University of Bonn, Germany Nominal start time: 2013-079-1800 UT Nominal end time: 2013-080-1800 UT Duration: 24 hrs Correlator: BONN PARTICIPATING STATIONS ====================== Bd BADARY Sm CRIMEA Eb EFLSBERG Mc MEDICINA Nt NOTO Ny NYALES20 Wz WETTZELL Zc ZELENCHK Purpose ======= The purpose of this experiment is to determine station coordinates and their evolution in the southern part of the European geodetic VLBI network with the highest precision possible. Schedule ======== The schedule was optimized for local sky coverage. Scans are scheduled to have scan length purely according to SNR limits. The sky coverage for all stations were optimized. The minimum SNR on all baselines is at X band and at S band set to 25.

There are no observation for ZELENCHK and BADARY from 079-19:00 to 21:00 and from 080-16:00 to 18:00, because of domestic observations. =========================================================== First observations Source Start DURATIONS name yyddd-hhmmss Bd Sm Eb Mc Nt Ny Wz Zc 0059+581 13079-180000| 15 15 15 15 15 15 15| 1324+224 13079-194234| 208 15 208 157 181 139 | Last observations 0657+172 13080-155129| 70 129 15 121 104 129 83 42| 0119+115 13080-155650| 74 66 50 74 50 26| 0748+126 13080-175656| 41 36 22 41 28 | =========================================================== Average number of obs. per baseline per source(normalized by up-time) = 3.7 Min = 0.0 Max = 54.5 (Baseline Sm-Ny on CTA26 ) RMS = 7.3 Total time: 1438 minutes ( 24.0 hours).
