Connection Details


Action Items

AssignedTaskOpenedDue/Completed
Holdaway/Wilson Produce a first-cut at a "Primary Beam" calibration section. 2004-07-302004-08-12
Calibration Subgroup Leads Coordinate review and revision of their assigned sections by 2004-08-12 telecon. Note that target date for completion of the Calibration Plan is 2004-10-01. 2004-07-302004-08-12
Mangum Works with NRAO Computing to implement an externally-accessible Wiki. If this option will not develop within the next month or so, explore use of the existing ESO Wiki. Richer suggests building Calibration Wiki within an ALMA Science IPT Wiki. DONE: See https://wikio.nrao.edu/bin/view/Main/JeffMangum. 2004-07-152004-08-12
Mangum Will seek guidance from ALMA Management on the question of ACA operation. In the meantime, group discussions should consider ACA-related issues within the context of specific calibration categories. DONE: See the "AlmaLinks" link at https://wikio.nrao.edu/bin/view/Main/JeffMangum. 2004-07-152004-08-12
All Consider whether "Total Power" calibration can be incorporated within other calibration categories (use the current content of the Calibration Plan as a guide). 2004-07-152004-08-12
All Consider whether "Primary Beam" calibration should be added to the list of calibration categories and Calibration Plan sections. 2004-07-152004-08-12
All Review/update Calibration Plan sections. 2004-07-152004-08-12
Completed Action Items
Gibson/Welch Send preprint of Icarus paper on 28.5 GHz absolute calibration to the group. 2004-07-152004-07-30


Agenda

NOTE:

  1. Calibration Plan

    The Calibration Plan needs to be finished. In order to accomplish this, it will be necessary to have small groups concentrate on specific sections of the plan. The group agreed to the following breakdown. "Volunteers" for review and update of each section, with a suggested "lead volunteer" denoted in bold, are indicated:



  2. Amplitude Calibration Subsystem Development Reports



  3. Date of next phone meeting
    The next ALMA Calibration Group telecon will be 2004, September 9th 15:00 UT.
