Meeting Notes

  • Unknown User (aguyonnet) gave two presentations
    • Comparing SNFactory & MERRA-2 atmospheric parameters
      • PWV is somewhat correlated
      • Nothing else is.
      • Agreement is not bad though.
    • Next steps:
      • More work to do on the aerosols from MERRA.
      • Immediate question is: can we extract aerosols from the MERRA data.
      • That will be the main focus of Unknown User (aguyonnet)'s work until ~Christmas.
  • Merlin Fisher-Levine
    • Working on DM-15756.
      • Almost ready to close it.
      • Discovered interesting effects in background subtraction.
  • Andrés Alejandro Plazas Malagón
    • Gave an overview of what his current activities are (ie, constructing Sensor Characterization and ISR).
    • Had some discussions with Jim Chiang.
    • Will be at Caltech meeting next week ("Image Sensors for Precision Astronomy", formerly known as "Precision Astronomy with Fully Depleted CCDs"); will (probably) miss this meeting.
      • But will tell us about it the following week.
