Fringes
Station | Code | Fringes | Plots | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|
Ef | B | yes | Fringe overview of all baselines (all of C182A) including this antenna in LL (left for each baseline) and RR (right for each baseline). c182a_SBD_RfAnt_Ef_LLRR_AllSrc.pdf Same for all antennas below unless otherwise noted. | |
On | X | yes | ||
Ys | Y | yes | An amplifier burned out just before the beginning of the session, fixed during the fringe test, but after that the antenna consistently produces fringes only to RCP, while in its typical configuration in should have LCP only, duplicated to both channels. But in this session it appears to have RCP only. | |
Mh | Z | yes | Swapped polarizations, fixed in correlation, data is not affected. | |
Pv | P | yes | ||
GLT: Gl | g | yes | The GLT was observing in an unknown polarization configuration, linear or some elliptic instead of the circular due to a polarizer misalignment. Unless there is a way to recontruct the proper circular polarization, this station must be flagged or used only for the total power measurement. | |
VLBA: Br | b | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. | |
VLBA: Fd | f | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. | |
VLBA: Kp | k | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. | |
VLBA: La | l | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. | |
VLBA: Mk | m | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. Very few fringes | |
VLBA: Nl | n | no | All the data for this part of the session is missing, probably recorded on a different Mk5 module and lost in transit. All attempts to track down the fate of this portion of the data failed. | |
VLBA: Ov | o | yes | All VLBA antennas suffer from the same problem, diminishing the effective observing time in many scans by 30-50%. | |
VLBA: Pt | p | no | All Pt data for this whole session lost due to a malfunctioning Mk5 module. We attempted to save it, but the data has proven to be unrecoverable. The antenna was included into the production correlation of the first part of this experiment, but this should be ignored and all the baselines for this antenna must be flagged.. | |
KVN: Kt | t | yes | very few real fringes (although fourfit finds a false fringe for many baselines) | |
KVN: Ku | u | yes | very few real fringes (although fourfit finds a false fringe for many baselines) | |
KVN: Ky | y | yes | very few real fringes (although fourfit finds a false fringe for many baselines) |
Notes
All VLBA antennas are affected by the same problem (probably originating in the control software) during the whole session: for a significant portion of scans the recording starts several seconds or even few minutes late compared with the schedule. This results in effective reduction of observing time by a factor of 30-50%.
For some reason fourfit finds a fringe for every baseline including a KVN antenna. We are stiil looking how to avoid this problem. Meanwhile in the overview tables above the value of single-band delay is used to tell the difference between the considerably fewer real fringes and false positives.
