Notes:

• We show the most critical QC parameters, derived from the day-time SINFONI_gen_tec_QuickHealthCheck template, processed by the SINFONI pipeline sinfo_rec_jitter recipe, measuring performance characteristics of the adaptive opotics module.
• Two data set are shown: QC parameter derived by the pipeline in Garching (QC) and QC parameters derived by the pipeline on Paranal (PSO). In addition, the average of the Garching data shown. In case no Garching data are available the average of the PSO data is given instead.
• The QC parameter definitions can be found on the qc psf page.
• The internal fiber (no atmosphere, corresponding to tau_o = infinity) is used with the setting S3_K, 0.025, loop CLOSED.

A) Strehl ratio (fiber, no atmosphere)

For daily health check, focus on:

Strehl ratio (median over several wavelength gridpoints) of the fiber image.

• The blue points are processed on Paranal ( = PSO)
• The black points are processed by QC Garching ( = QC)
• The last data point is marked
• The time range spans the last 2 months.

B) FWHM (fiber, no atmosphere)

For daily health check, focus on:

FWHM of the median collapsed fiber image (spatial x and y component)

• The blue points are processed on Paranal ( = PSO)
• The black points are processed by QC Garching ( = QC)
• The last data point is marked
• The time range spans the last 2 months.
