Hi Hien,



We would like to request the August 27 half night for NGS AO engineering in support of advanced NGWFC functionality and upgrades to the AO operations software. The tests that we would like to do during that time are:



Centroid gain estimation 

Control loop optimization

Advanced control law testing

Archiver/autoretrieval of parameters

Plate scale testing

DTCLP testing

PSF/Strehl as a function of wavelength

Find STRAP focus

Determine the reason for the LBWFS focus shift



This request assumes that October 18 is also an NGS AO engineering night and that Nov 1 is an LGS AO engineering half night.



Thanks a lot!

Marcos
