Observational settings/limits

ComaCluster-Center, ComaCluster-OFF1, ComaCluster-OFF2
Min Zenith [deg] = 0 

Max Zenith [deg] = 50 

Night Sky Background = Both 

Wobbles = ON 

Observational strategy

The strategy, each observing night (80 consecutive minutes), is as follow:

• OFF-1 region for 20 minutes (1 run), during which the relative movement of the sky is 5 deg (AZ1, ZD1 → AZ2, ZD2)
• ON region for 20+20 minutes (2 runs), during which the relative sky movement is 10 deg (AZ1, ZD1 → AZ2, ZD2 → AZ3, ZD3).
• OFF-2 region for 20 minutes (1 run, AZ2, ZD2 → AZ3, ZD3).

Instructions for shifters

Observations in ON mode. Please report any hotspot in RTA / skymaps.
