After Your Observing Run
After Your Observing Run
End of Night R=
esponsibilities:
- Be sure to shut down the observing software as specifi=
ed in the instrument manual, leaving running=
items like lois and anything else called out in the manuals. Clean u=
p the observing computer desktop (
dct-obs1
/ dct-obs2
) to how you found it.
- DO NOT exit lois at the end of the night. T=
his action would disable monitoring of instrument temperatures.
- Fill out the LDT F=
eedback form (on t=
he observing computer desktop). This form provides information to the=
staff about the quality of the night and any issues that need to be follow=
ed up upon.
- Take your data with you. You may transfer over the inter=
net or via portable external hard drive (carrier pigeo=
ns not suppor=
ted at this time). The observer is responsible for ge=
tting their data from the LDT to their home institution and maintaining pro=
per backup copies for their use. Please note: Due to the remote location of LDT, bandwidth over t=
he microwave link to Flagstaff is limited. Only transfer files over t=
he internet during your assigned observing time or between local sunrise an=
d 11a MST. Do not transfer data during another observer's time, as th=
is causes undue lag for the VNC connections.
Later:
- When you publish results from your data taken at LDT, include the relev=
ant LDT (formerly DCT) Acknowledgment Text. Ther=
e are appropriate acknowledgments for both the facility and individual inst=
ruments. For manuscripts submitted to one of the AAS journals=
, please include the Facility Keyword: LDT.
- In the extreme case of catastrophic or accidental data loss, we may=
be able to retrieve your data from our backup. We do not, however, o=
perate an archive of searchable data for general use.
- Please let us know when you publish any results using data taken at the=
LDT. We keep an auto-generated list of publications as indexed by AD=
S. If you don't see yours show up it probably means that we need to adjust =
our default search keys. The list of publications can be found at LDT Scientifi=
c and Technical Publications.
