 ====== PlayGround ====== ====== PlayGround ======
- 
- 
-===== To Do Lists ===== 
- 
-here is space for many ToDO lists 
- 
- 
-   
-==== Wiki ==== 
- 
-  * keep [[en:praktikum:orga|Orga-page]] up to date 
-  * complete the [[en:ost:telescope:setup| telescope setup]]  
-  * ** extend [[en:ost:ccds:astrofotografie|Astro photography]] (german: [[de:ost:ccds:astrofotografie|Astrofotografie]]) (Stub) page **  
-    * Which settings for planet, sun and deep-sky observations? 
-  * **extend [[en:ost:spektrograph:grunddaten|spectrograph]] (german:[[de:ost:spektrograph:grunddaten|spectrograph]] page (Stub) ** 
-    * Short user manual 
-  * extend [[en:ost:telescope:probleme|troubleshooting-page]] (german: [[de:ost:telescope:probleme|troubleshooting-page]]  
-  * set up a weather webcam -> students should learn to observe the weather 
-  * extend [[en:etc:literatur|bibliography-page]] 
-  * improve [[en:praktikum:gdl]]? 
-  * update and translate our [[de:etc:jabber|Jabber-Server]] page  
-  * adjust Wiki such that it is fully responsive  
-  * **record the setup of the new instruments** 
-    * BACHES 
-    * Canon 
-    * ST-i 
-  * create a small physics lexicon with all important facts about the observations. In particular for N1, so that students can't find exotic elements where they argue then "but..., but Xe has a transition there" 
-  * translate [[de:praktikum:versuche_intern|Interne Seite zu den Beobachtungen]]  
-  * <del>translate and extend [[en:ost:telescope:c8_bedienung|Seite zum C8]]</del> 
-  * fill the "To be continued" (german: "Kommt noch") spots in the Wiki with content 
- 
- 
- 
-==== Telescope/Instruments ==== 
- 
-  * [[en:ost:telescope:probleme| fix tracking error / Mirror flop?]] (see autoguide speed and follow obj )

-    * <del>switch A-PEC and Dual tracking on</del> 
-      * **new training of A-PEC**  -> detailed test series 
-      * make Backlash Adjustment  
-      * A-PEC seems to reduce the problem (see [[en:ost:telescope:probleme#Tracking error|here]]) but one of the axis still seems to have a backlash 
-  * **Clean Schmidt-Plate!** - How? -> Maybe wait for next telescope 
-  * complete [[en:ost:telescope:probleme| list of problems]] (german:[[de:ost:telescope:probleme| Fehlerliste]])

-  * <del>test ST-i camera with both spectrographs</del> -> **Documentation!** 
-  * enhance collimation of the C14 see e.g. [[en:ost:telescope:setup#C 14 Tubus|here]] 
-  * train fine focus? 
-  * test the new filters of the STF-8300 in comparison to the old filters of the ST-8   
-    * use Baader 2" UHC-S/ L-Booster filter for C6? -> filters are ready to test 
-  * check old power adapter 
-  * paint inner gate white 
-  * test UHC-S filters with the ST-7 -> Documentation 
-  * <del>clean oculars with Optic Wonder </del>  -> last cleaning may 2018 
-  * make pinholes 
-  * tinker sun finder for C8  
- 
- 
- 
-=== Groundhog Day === 
- 
-  * bake drying granulate of the STF8300M (once a year) -> next replacement: December 2018 
-  * bake drying granulate of the ST-8 (once a year) -> next replacement: Januar 2020 
-  * bake drying granulate of the ST-7 (once a year) -> next replacement: Januar 2020 
-  * check drying granulate in the telescope -- **last** replacement: 07.01.2019 
-  * clean dome ([[en:ost:cleanup|see]]) -> next cleaning: summer 2019 
-  * **In autumn, reduce the worm's contact pressure on the worm wheel of the right ascension drive to avoid the "ship horn" ([[en:ost:telescope:probleme#geraeusch_aehnlich_dem_eines_schiffshorns|see]]). In spring, increase the pressure again such that the right ascension axis can't be moved by hand.** 
- 
- 
-==== Telescope computer ==== 
- 
-  * install Linux on the old laptop to test alternative softwares (e.g. this [[http://indilib.org/devices/ccds/sbig-ccd.html|here]]) in comparison to the existing installation  
-  * SBIG: update driver and software  
- 
- 
- 
-==== General things ==== 
- 
-  * extend observation lists in the svn  
-  * revise presentation key points 
-  * create mails for presentations -> Copy&Paste 
-  * **translate svn:** 
-    * correspondingly adjust structure 
-    * hints night observation 
-    * hints solar observation 
-    * <del>short interview for S1 and S2</del> 
-    * e-mail templates 
-    * OST manual -> obsolete because of Wiki? (rh) 
-  * clean up organisation in the svn -> partially done (rh) 
-  * add HIP and SAO numbers to the list of binary stars in the svn, because for example the CGE-Pro understands only SAO 
-  * fill backup with observational data for students in svn 
-  * **Inventory of the OST and lab room 2.009 -> [[http://polaris.astro.physik.uni-potsdam.de/wiki/doku.php?id=ost:inventar|Inventory]]** 
-  * fill darkarchive continuously with new data 
-  * acquire a raspberry pi as weather cam and for weather information? 
-  * finish bashscript for slot remindation

-  * update the telefone list in the dome 
-  * add pictures to gallery 
-  * update QR-Code/install NFC-tag for our gallery on the stairs to the telescope 
-  * create a better/more modern first page for our server 
- 
-  
-==== Lab course/Observations/Data processing ==== 
- 
-  * standardise expectation horizons 
-  * extend exspectation horizons for interviews (only for internal use) 
-  * N1-instructions: replace spectrum examples 
-  * improve N1  
-    * optimise DADOS analysis -> maybe not necessary anymore because DADOS is used with the ST-8 now which is more insensitive with respect to Fringes -> apparently this is only partially correct 
-    * optimise BACHES analysis  
-      * improve normalization 
-      * <del>implement different possibilities for flatfield corrections</del>  
-        * <del>Flatfielding via 1D-flatfield functions</del> 
-      * enable read in of FITS files also in the pipeline  
-  * Adjust ''n2_add_images.pro'' such that it can react to two different exposure times of the Images. (different darkframe directories) 
-  * improve C7   
-    * fill archive data  
-    * construct analysis with ''nightfall''   
-  * develop alternative master observations   
-    * rotation velocity of Jupiter using BACHES 
-    * spectroscopic binaries [[http://www.baader-planetarium.de/dados/kundenreferenz/dados_kundenreferenz.htm|Measurement of radial velocity]](german link)? 
-  * possible additional bachelor observations: 
-    * develop bachelor observation regarding a new telescope alignment 
-    * develop bachelor observation regarding the rotational velocity of Jupiter 
-    * develop bachelor observation regarding the calibration lamp for the spectrographs konzipieren -> is this still useful since we have BACHES? 
-    * additional solar observation from C2 covering solar activity 
-      * C2 should be enhanced -> If activities on the sun are visible then observe, if not use archive data 
-      * Do we have a formula for the intensity profile of a sun spot? -- account for influence of the filter 
- 
- 
-==== Lab computer ==== 
-  * create a new version of the [[en:software:howto_virtualbox_ubuntu|The laboratory course computer for your home (a12 to go)]] and then update the wiki page (with the whole VirtualBox-thing etc.) 
- 
- 
- 
-==== Polaris ==== 
-  * <del>set up a[[http://prosody.im/|Jabber server]] on polaris for fast communication? ->[[http://www.igniterealtime.org/projects/openfire/|Openfire]] Jabber Server</del> 
-    * document the new Jabber server  
-  * memory script can't work anymore due to the forwarding of the individual slot pages 
- 
- 
-==== Wishlist ==== 
-  * two wodden chairs for the dome: The metal chairs are so terribly cold in winter -> < 50 Euro 
-  * All-Sky Kamera 340 from SBIG: source: Baader Planetarium -> 2240 Euro [[http://www.sbig.com/products/cameras/specialty/the-allsky-340-camera|klick]] 
-  * Seeing-Monitor KAF-0402ME: source: Baader Planetarium -> 2910 Euro [[https://www.sbig.com/products/cameras/specialty/seeing-monitor|klick]] 
-  * weather station -> Which one? 
-    * or Raspberry Pi Starter Kit (~70€) with [[http://airpi.es/|AirPi]] (~80€) ([[http://myscope.net/airpi-wetterstation-mit-raspberry-pi/|for example]]) with [[http://www.raspberrypi.org/products/pi-noir-camera/|IR-camera]] ([[http://www.exp-tech.de/raspberry-pi-noir-camera-board-infrared-sensitive-camera|~30€]]) and fish-eye ([[https://www.modmypi.com/nwazet-pi-camera-box-bundle-plus|e.g. this Case]]) (30€) ([[http://astronomy.stackexchange.com/questions/6408/sky-glow-calculations|here]]), 26 Pin GPIO Male to Female Ribbon Cable (~4€)  
-    * buyable for 200-250€, has to be set up, but it shouldn"t be a big deal. With that we would have an All-Sky-camera, Seeing-Monitor and an ultra-mega-super-duper weather station in one thing! 
- 
-

-  * <del>memory update für a12</del> 
-    * <del>1TB for the Backup</del>

-  * HD 54879 (spectrum with the DADOS + STF8300) 
-  * BD+53 2790 (spectrum with the DADOS) 
-  * take videos with the DSLR? 
-  * NGC 7129 
-  * Xi Persei with the BACHES 
-  * ...
