(
Brief data summary
and
scan listing
)
ES081C, C-band e-VLBI experiment on 2017 October 10 Participating telescopes were Jodrell Bank, Effelsberg, Onsala, Noto, Medicina, Torun, Westerbork, Yebes, Tianma, Irbene, and Hart.
The target Mrk841 was phase-referenced to J1504+1029. The target Mrk564 was phase-referenced to J2242+2955. The target Mrk335 was phase-referenced to J0004+2019. The target Mrk359 was phase-referenced to J0139+1753.
The EVN reliability indicator (ERI) for this experiment was
ERI = . ERI* = .
(Mc=0, rest of EVN stations=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. A 1.5 minute plot-averaging was used.
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
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.
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. 0812+367 was used for bandpass calibration.
Calibrated amplitude and phase against time
(a
priori amplitude calibration and fringe-fit solutions applied).
Comments.
Full-experiment for Mc-* baselines, calibrated with CL3. The 1.5-min plot-averaging still applied.
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.
