Focus and thermal checks for March 2005

FE No.of data fit Temp range
-- ---------- ---------------------------- -----------
S 23 del = (-1.88 +- 1.04)*T_diff -0.7 to +0.7
(-0.87 +- 0.28)*T_mean 4 to 8
A 61 del = (-1.81 +- 1.08)*T_diff -0.6 to +0.6
(+0.04 +- 0.14)*T_mean 2 to 10
B 166 del = (-0.18 +- 0.56)*T_diff -0.2 to +1.3
(+0.16 +- 0.09)*T_mean -2 to 10
W 43 del = (+2.30 +- 1.73)*T_diff -0.6 to +0.4
(+0.44 +- 0.13)*T_mean 0 to 11
Only the SCUBA and RxW relationships with T_mean are significant
(>3sigma, and only just, and based on rather few data). Overall there's
nothing significant and consistent across the FEs to justify
changing the value of mean_temp_slope.
The
RxA and
RxB data show no concerns about the
applicability of the current pointing model
(that from 15 December 2004).

Temp range
-----------
Notes : 1 : RxA_Z = (+0.018 +- 0.007)*T_leg 0 to 10
2 : RxB_Z = (+0.022 +- 0.004)*T_leg -2 to 10
3 : RxW_C_Z = (+0.017 +- 0.004)*T_leg 0 to 12
The elevation dependencies seen last time
have apparently been corrected successfully, but
the Z dependency upon leg temperature is too significant to ignore.
The SMU parameter DZT_COEFF has
therefore been
changed (back) from 0.050 to
0.070 (mm/deg; it had this value between Oct 2003 and Aug 2004). There
may some minor impact upon the zero-points of these
relations : to be adjusted next time if necessary.
