Holography map Sep 7 2001 panel fitted errors

Panel fitted surface errors (Sep 7 2001)



Panel fitted surface errors

Image of the total surface errors fitted to individual panels (Sep 7 2001). The measurement was made between 00:00 and 02:00 hours. Rms of the total surface errors, from holography, is 40 microns. The dish was readjusted on September 5 2001 based on set 490. However because of some panels with large deviations the fit obtained by the RxH2 software was not good. Some of these deviating panels could not be moved because of broken motors. Note however that the above map does not include systematic errors from the holography system itself, or from imperfections of the panels such as surface roughness and scalloping.
