SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Wednesday 4 December 2002
ANNOUNCEMENTS
-------------
* Current RHESSI default target is AR 10208
* If this evening's TDRS launch slips, it will probably
impact SOHO's NRT on Thursday and Friday.
* If the forecasted snow materializes overnight, there probably will
not be a SOC in the EOF on Thursday. If you need to get hold of a SOC
they can be reached at home or paged. Due to this and the TDRS launch,
we recommend uploading as much as possible today.
* Solar science seminar by Ken Phillips on "Looking for
the Coronal Heating Mechanism during Solar Eclipses"
on Wednesday 4 December at 3:30pm in the EAF.
* Reminder to instrument teams: Please send updated contact
lists to the SOCs. Phone numbers have changed for some,
and the holiday vacation dates should be noted as well.

INSTRUMENT STATUS
-----------------
CDS: Nominal. Eclipse support in the south polar then engineering after
the submode change. Tomorrow: engineering, spectral atlas study,
ICAL, line width study in north polar coronal hole plumes.
SUMER: Nominal. Eclipse support, then powering down detector A and
closing the door.
UVCS: Nominal. Eclipse streamer study early today, after 20 UT UVCS
will have coronal hole observations followed by mini-synoptic.
Tomorrow: coronal hole and mini-synoptic.
LASCO: Nominal. C2/C3 synoptics, eclipse support for 4 expeditions
between 5 and 11 UT (contact planner@lasco13 for more details).
JOP159 support.
EIT: Nominal. 195 CME watch (half resolution) and synoptics, eclipse
support for 4 expeditions between 5 and 11 UT. Switching to full
resolution CME watch after the submode change. JOP159 support.
MDI: Nominal. Full disk cropped magnetograms and dopplergrams.
TRACE: Nominal. Eclipse observations; currently in safehold.
