4 June 1997 EOF-MEDOC SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes Notes: B. Cougrand, Jean-Claude Vial, L. Allen Announcements ------------- A new operations page has been put on the SOHO WWW. The new format intends to provide a quick and efficient way of getting information about Operations. Effort has been made to maintain the same links but as with any optimization, some things have been changed. Some updating of your bookmarks may be necessary. The new Operations page was primarily the work of Bobby Doney with contributions by George Dimitoglou and Piet Martens. Other new information on the Operations page includes a "SOHO Events" page, created with information from Helmut Schweitzer with links to SOC "as-run" e-mails and monthly OCD listings from the FOT. FOT Briefing ------------ S/C Status is Nominal with the exception of Receiver #1 Anomaly Summary: 155/0701 -- LIPWA = 2.81, Yellow Delta Limit 155/0803 -- CDS watchdog triggered Accomplished Activities: RSL, VIRGO, CELIAS, VC2 time-tagged commands Planned Activities: RSL, VIRGO, CELIAS (2130), VC2 time-tagged commands 1 JUL/00:00 -- Leap Second Update Ground System Anomaly Summary: 154/1407 -- TM Dropout; Transmitter down at D24, (4 minutes loss, unrecoverable) STATUS OF SUN: ------------- Solar activity still predicted at very low level. The prominence (S42) expected and targeted for today by SUMER and CDS is OK. LASCO saw a faint series of CMEs from South Pole going westward, 12-15 hours in duration. LASCO FeX image shows dramatic feature in southwest. TODAY GBOs and INSTRUMENT STATUS: -------------------------------- - La Palma reports no observation due to bad weather. - Joint VLA observations, JOP12 and JOP17 successful. Good reference spectra in hot loops at South West limb (SUMER) Good straylight measurements with CDS CDS recovered from their watchdog error nominally, however, some of the JOP033 data was lost. EIT and LASCO doing some software testing today INSTRUMENT PLANS FOR JUNE 5: ---------------------------- CDS 0:00 - 6:30 : Synoptic meridian image 6:45 - 8:30 : JOP 12, Prominence SW (S42, W) with SUMER 8:30 - 12:00 : JOP 17, Filament NW 3 FOVs FOV1 (N30, W36) FOV2 (N26, W48) FOV3 (N11, W45) with SUMER 12:00 - 14:15 : JOP 33: 8048 Active Region study (Part S30, W14) 14:15 - 15:15 : Engineering 15:30 - 19:30 : Filament study with VLA (N11, W52) with SUMER 20:00 - 23:30 : Stray-Light study EIT Supports:: 07:30 - 12:00 : Full disk at 304 12:00 - 14:00 : JOP 33 AR 8048 centered (S30, W14) SUMER 0:00 - 6:30 : Trans-limb Spectral Atlas 6:30 - 11:00 : JOP 12 Prominence Study SW (S43, W) 11:00 - 12:00 : JOP 17 Filament NW (N11, W45) 12:00 - 15:00 : Lyman series Chromospheric Observations (P.

Jean-Claude says he has not heard much response concerning the Interplanetary Scintillation studies with EISCAT. Andrzej Fludra expects this will be in the CDS report which will be received tomorrow.
