20040124 report

CW Inclinometry shows no further changes


Inclinometry was done as follows :

    Datasets  El Dirn     HST     mean leg temperatures   Humidity
                          start     start   middle   end       %
 (  20040116  90  cw      04:45     -0.8     -0.7   -0.6      25 )
    20040124  90  cw      14:21      0.6      1.1    1.4      90

All data channels of the inclinometry data are OK. The resulting model is compared below with the previous one :

  • 2" changes such as seen previously are absent this time.
  • The differences in (F1,F2,F3) between these two CW models are described by the rms scatters of (0.39", 0.33", 0.24") cf. (1.05", 0.29", 0.52") and (0.80", 0.80", 0.93") in the previous two comparisons.
  • The new CW model was merged with the (CW-CCW) template to create a hybrid track model, which was installed at HST 10:20 on 26 Jan 2004.
  • Records of the symmetry and strain gauge data have been updated; there is little change in these characteristics.
