General Comments. ( Brief data summary and scan listing )
The X band user experiment EM085 was performed on 15 March 2010. The experiment used 11 stations with a recording data rate of 1024 Mbps (16 x 16 MHz, 2bit sampling, RCP only). Ef, Wb, and Mc are used as the reference station in the pipelining data reduction.

The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was ERI = 0.94 . ERI* = 0.94 . (Ef=1, Wb=1, Mc=0.66, On=1, Hh=1, Ys=1, Bd=1, Zc=1, Sv=1, Ur=1, Sh=1).

Plots of the autocorrelations
Comments.
Each scan plotted separately, all stations.

plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against time
Comments.
Full-experiment for Ef-* baselines, no calibration applied.

Plots of the uncalibrated amplitude and phase against frequency channel
Comments.
Scalar averaged Ef-* baselines, each scan plotted separately. No calibration applied yet.

The uncalibrated amplitude and phase of the crosshand correlations against frequency channel (not available)
Comments.

TSYS against time
Comments.
TY1 table, each IF/pol on a separate plot.

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.
Gain amplitude from CL2 table.

Fringe-fit phase solutions (including Parallactic Angle correction).
Comments.
FRING_PHAS CL3 station phase solutions -- CL3 = CL2+SN2, thus also includes the initial amplitude/parallactic angle calibration from CL2 and the fringe solutions from SN2.

Fringe-fit delay solutions
Comments.
SN2 station delay solutions for the fringed sources, each IF/pol on a separate plot.

Fringe-fit rate solutions
Comments.
SN2 station rate solutions.

Telescope bandpasses
Comments.
Bandpass table 1.

Calibrated amplitude and phase against time (a priori amplitude calibration and fringe-fit solutions applied).
Comments.
Full-experiment for Ef-* baselines, calibrated with CL3.

Calibrated amplitude and phase against frequency channel
Comments.
Ef-* baselines calibrated with CL3 and BP1. The amp and phase plots self-scale, not necessarily going down to 0 in the case of the amps.

As above, but for the post-SPLIT table SN2.

Telescope sensitivities (the total AMP gain applied during both a priori and self calibration; the square of this number gives the antenna noise (SEFD) in Jy).
