| 1 | == P3.18 Large spatial scale instrument and telescope flat field == |
| 2 | • **Phase** : 3 |
| 3 | • **Status** : Draft |
| 4 | • **Category** : Nighttime testing (functionality and operability) (C4) |
| 5 | • **Recurrence** : before every night observations (valid for all observing modes). 2/day for CI (BB filter only). |
| 6 | • **Duration** : 1 hour(s) |
| 7 | **Description** |
| 8 | • Flat field taken during twilight |
| 9 | **Prerequisites** |
| 10 | • Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side. |
| 11 | • Atmospheric conditions: AO working conditions. |
| 12 | • Bad pixel map, Background or Dark. |
| 13 | **Procedure** |
| 14 | • This calibration is performed by sky observation combined with pointing scan in order to record a flat (that include telescope large scale transmission variations) on the detector. |
| 15 | • Single integration times for a given setup, using various flux level with natural light with no coronagraph. |
| 16 | **Success criteria** |
| 17 | • Width of flux distribution: 3.10-2 |
| 18 | **Notes** |
| 19 | • Same as activity 7.5 in AD4 |
| 20 | **LBTO support** |
| 21 | • Support from LBTI/LBTO? |
| 22 | **Associated SHARK-NIR personnel** |
| 23 | • JF, LM, MdP |
| 24 | **Date performed and by whom** |
