- png file	- advanced studies: QC1 browser \| QC1 plotter telluric standard star monitoring has been implemented beginning 2009-05-01. The intent is to monitor the MINIMUM flux of the STD to insure that it has an adequate S/N. Flux on the peak should be around 500 counts which corresponds to ~ 15 ADU/pixel within a 3 sigma aperture for the 25mas scale with AO.

This plot

These are the trending plots for the SINFONI QC parameters derived from the telluric STD stars.

Telluric standard star monitoring has been implemented beginning 2009-05-01.

The intent is to monitor the MINIMUM flux of the STD star to insure that it has an adequate S/N.

Flux levels should be above 5 ADU/pixel within a 3 sigma aperture.

Find more information about SINFONI STD calibration data here.

Other QC parameters are also trended here.

General information

Click on any of the plots to see a close-up version.

The latest date is indicated on top of the plot.

If configured,

data points belonging to the latest date are specially marked
statistical averages are indicated by a solid line, and thresholds by broken lines
outliers are marked by a red asterisk. They are defined as data points outside the threshold lines
"aliens" (= data points outside the plot Y limits) are marked by a red arrow (↑ or ↓)
you can download the data for each parameter set if the 'Data downloads' link shows up
