GAL05

Proposal

Proposal: GAL05: Search for Very High Energy pulsed emission from PSR J2021+3651
PI: Alvaro Mas-Aguilar (alvmas@ucm.es)

  Source: PSR J2021+3651

    RA (J2000) 305.2725000 deg 

    DEC (J2000) 36.8512500 deg 

Observational settings/limits

   Min zenith = 0 deg 
   Max zenith = 30 deg (priority under 20 deg)
   NSB: Dark (never moon conditions)
   Wobbles: Standard 
   Total time requested: 50 hrs

The weather conditions should be good since we want to reduce the energy threshold down to 15-20 GeV. Therefore:

- Transmission > 0.8 - If LIDAR is not working or there are doubts about the correct working on the LIDAR (e.g LIDAR profile or overall values do not seem reasonable based on the images from the AllSKyCamera), you can check that the rates are correct and that there are not too many clouds in the direction of the source to make a decision on the conditions to observe.
