Brief data summary
and
scan listing

EK037, 22 GHz VLBI experiment on 2016 June 8th. Participating telescopes were Ef, Jb, On, Mc, Nt, Sr, Tr, Ys, Mh, Ku, Ky, Kt, Sv, Zc, Bd. You can find information on individual stations at: http://www.evlbi.org/user_guide/EVNstatus.txt.
The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was
ERI = . ERI* = .
Plots of the autocorrelations
Comments.
Huge RFI in IF 3 of Mh RCP, be sure to flag it. Also RFI in Zc, Ys, Mc, Jb. In general, it seems like there should be a lot of careful flagging of RFI in this experiment.
Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase
against time
Comments.
Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase
against frequency channel
Comments.
Strong calibrator (J2202+4216) detected on all baselines, see pages 755 to 758.
The uncalibrated amplitude and phase of the crosshand
correlations against frequency channel
Comments.
TSYS against time
Comments.
Telescope sensitivities
from the a priori TSYS and Gain
curves (the square of this number gives the antenna noise (SEFD) in Jy - the
smaller the better).
Comments.
Fringe-fit phase solutions
(including Parallactic
Angle correction).
Comments.
Fringe-fit delay solutions
Comments.
It seems like only the bright calibrator was detected with FRING. You should use a low SNR cutoff for the reference sorce or use inverse phase referencing.
Fringe-fit rate solutions
Comments.
Telescope bandpasses
Comments.
Most antennas are good, but Mh seems affected by the RFI seen in POSSM_AUTOCORR
Calibrated amplitude and phase against time

priori amplitude calibration and fringe-fit solutions applied).
