Subject: E2E 20050607 Shift-B Science Report.


The transition from Shift-A to Shift-B occurred during the analysis of the 
Best Focus II data. The results are detailed in the Shift-A report and on 
the analysis webpage.

Most of Shift-B was spent on Section 7 - FOV Optimized Focus Position. The 
BF position determined from the Best Focus II sub-test earlier in the day 
was used to estimate the location of the OF position.

BF = -850 focus-steps = -515 um
OF estimated = -1462 focus-steps = -798 um

The FOV OF procedure then called for us to make 1D radial scans in 
pitch/yaw at several focus positions around the estimated OF. Each radial 
scan was 10 images from 6 to 15 arc-min off-axis. The focus positions 
scanned were -515 um, -615 um, -715 um, and -815 um. The results are 
presented on the analysis webpage. To summarize, the results are confusing 
as to whether we have bracketed the OF position yet. We expect the morning 
shift to continue this sub-test.

Data was taken to test the VLI, but no analysis has been performed yet. 
The Test Conductor has requested that the morning shift begin by 
performing analysis on this VLI data.

(The analysis team has communicated more details about procedures for both 
the VLI and OF analysis.)
