SQLite Data 

Modern Version of the Baseline Cadence A candidate replacement simulation for the current Baseline Cadence (opsim3.61) produced with the latest version (v3.2.1) of the Operations Simulation (OpSim) code. The following adjustments have been made: includes Science Council approved Deep Drilling fields; Wide-Fast-Deep (WFD) design specification for areal coverage (18,000 deg) & WFD "boosted visits" = 75, 105, 240, 240, 210, 210 for u, g, r, i, z, & y filters where g, r, i and z visits are collected in pairs separated by about 30 minutes; includes revised scheduled downtime as well as random downtime; minAlt = 20 deg; MinDistance2Moon = 30 deg. Note that SRD design visits = 56, 80, 184, 184, 160, 160 for u, g, r, i, z, & y filters.
1

ops2_1098

SQLite Data  

Uniform cadence (WFD), which asks for visits in pairs, and no other proposal.
2

ops2_1093

SQLite Data  

Only uniform cadence (WFD), but does not require pairs of visits.
3

kraken_1033

SQLite Data  

As the baseline cadence (Setup 0), but does not require pairs of visits.
4

enigma_1271

SQLite Data  

enigma_1266

SQLite Data  

As the baseline cadence, but requests 3 visits per Wide-Fast-Deep field chosen instead of 2 visits, using the same window function for both 1-2 visits and 2-3 visits.


As the baseline cadence, but requests 4 visits per Wide-Fast-Deep field.

5

kraken_1034

SQLite Data 

As the baseline cadence, except that the u-band exposure time is 60 sec instead of 30 sec.; Nvisit for the u-band remains the same.
6

kraken_1035

SQLite Data 

As the baseline cadence, except that the u-band exposure time is 60 sec instead of 30 sec;  Nvisit for the u-band is decreased by a factor of 2.
7

kraken_1036

SQLite Data 

As the baseline cadence, except for a shorter visit exposure time: 20 sec instead of 30 sec. Deep drilling proposal has visits based on 30sec exposure due to code issues.
8

kraken_1037

SQLite Data 

As the baseline cadence, except for a longer visit exposure time: 60 sec instead of 30 sec.
9

ops2_1092

SQLite Data 

Pan-STARRS-like Cadence This is the uniform cadence, and no other proposal, keeping pairs of visits, but increase the area to include everything with Dec <+15 deg (about 27,400 deg2), and keeping the default airmass limit of 1.5.
10

kraken_1038

SQLite Data 

As the baseline cadence, except for the more relaxed airmass limit of 2.0 instead of 1.5.
11

ops2_1096

SQLite Data  

As Setup1 (uniform cadence with no other proposal), except for the more relaxed airmass limit of 2.0 instead of 1.5.
12

ops2_1097

SQLite Data  

As Setup 1 (uniform cadence with no other proposal), except for the more stringent airmass limit of 1.3 instead of 1.5.
