    ML006A Correlation Report

    General information

    Current Status

    Correlation finished, data is ready to be released.

    Fringes

    Station Code Fringes Plots Comments
    Ef B yes

    Fringe overview of all baselines (all of C181A) including Ef in LL (left for each baseline) and RR (right for each baseline). Legend: white - scheduled, but no data, blue - no fringe, red-green - fringes of different quality. D -- fourfit error, in this case due to mixing upper and lower subbands in the KVN compatibility mode, no real problem with the data.

    ______________________________________________________________

    		 Observed in linear polarization, converted to circular polarization in post-correlation uning PolConvert. For technical reasons the atmospheric correction was applied twice -- both in original ALMA data and during the correlation. Although a special procedure was developed to compensate for this, we found that its application leads to other difficulties, in particular to abnormally high fringe rate jumps, so in the final production run the double atmospheric correction was left as is.

    Notes

    There were problems with some diagnostic plots of this experiment due to yet poorly understood errors of fourfit and other HOPS components. But this does not change the quality of the final correlation products.

    GLT participated in this session for the first time as a test, and serious problems were detected when analysing its data. Be very carerful when using them.
