General news: NOTE: The Health Check and calChecker services are moved to qcFlow on an instrument by instrument basis. The current pages will not be updated any longer once the move has been finished.
The links to KMOS, UVES, and ESPRESSO have been moved to a new section (qcFlow operational) at the lower part of the navigation bar.
VIRCAM news: On March 6th, 2023, VIRCAM has been decommissioned after 13 years of operations.

This plot

Trending plot for CirrusTest Parameter obtained from detector 10. (since 2018-10-01: for EXTNAME=AVG)

QC parameters is derived from the twilight flat raw flux sequence of detetcor #10. (Since 2018-10-01: for the average over 16 detectors)

Name:
Fits header: (not available),
QC1 DB: qc_twilight_expfitrms
Description:
Under photometric and clear conditions the sky brightness is (de)inreases during (dusk)dawn in a continuous manner. Thin or thick cirrus moving through the FOV disturb the continuous flux trend. The function flux(time)= A + B * exp ( - C * (D - time)) is fit to the raw flux sequence and the RMS of the fit is considered as a measure of the sky brightness continuity within the FOV. The CirrusTest parameter is the RMS of the exponential fit to fluxes retrieved from the twilight flat raw frames. It is a quality parameter of the master twilight flat. Twilight flat flux sequences with significant deviantions from flux(time) will be discarded.

Setup:
INS.FILT1.NAME = Ks, J, H, Y, Z, NB118

General information

Click on any of the plots to see a close-up version.

The latest date is indicated on top of the plot.

If configured,

  • data points belonging to the latest date are specially marked
  • statistical averages are indicated by a solid line, and thresholds by broken lines
  • outliers are marked by a red asterisk. They are defined as data points outside the threshold lines
  • "aliens" (= data points outside the plot Y limits) are marked by a red arrow ( or )
  • you can download the data for each parameter set if the 'Data downloads' link shows up
