ARC 3.5M SCHEDULE FOR 3rd QUARTER 2009 S.Hawley, R.McMillan 6/7/09 NOTES: ***PLEASE READ*** Except in cases where strong science drivers dictate otherwise (a minority of cases), observing time has again been scheduled in half night blocks. There are 92 nights, or 184 half nights, in 3Q2009. Engineering (EN01) time in July consists of 7 nights, or 14 half nights, all bright. Summer shutdown (EN02) is scheduled for 4 weeks in mid Aug-mid Sept and consists of 56 half nights (26B, 9G, 21D). Engineering time thus takes 70 half nights in Q3. DD time consists of 6 half nights, divided as 4B, 2D. Computing 184 - 70 - 6 leaves 108 half nights for allocation by the institutions, which break down as 48B, 17G and 43D. In addition to scheduled engineering time, science observations may be pre-empted, sometimes on short notice, for urgent engineering tasks. Such tasks include both work that is required to safeguard observatory personnel or facilities and that allows "hot pursuit" of some significant problem. During this quarter, science observations directly after summer shutdown are at greater risk. Observers will be notified if their programs are affected. Please see links off of the APO home page (http://www.apo.nmsu.edu/) for a web based interactive version of this schedule. There are 4 half-nights of OPEN time and 2 half nights of DD time (DD04) in the 6/7/09 version of the Q3 schedule. ----- EN Note: No science observations scheduled during EN time. ----- EN01 = EN01 Klae X W Routine periodic engineering time.
