Catalog of observations with LOFAR CS1

All Measurement Set observations (not pulsar observations or RFI observations) appear on the storage cluster lifs001 to lifs012 in files /data/Lyyyy_nnnnn where:

A recent list of all observations on the off-line storage systems can be made with a script called lofstorman on listfen. Once they are nominated to be archived, you'll find them in directory /data/archive of lifs001 till lifs012. After 4 weeks the data will be moved to GRID archive storage to free up space for new data. Ask Teun Grit or Adriaan Renting to retrieve older data if you have no DutchGrid access yourself.

Data labeled as “grid” is already stored at the DutchGrid at Sara, Amsterdam. There it will be kept on disk for a while, where after it will be taped. You need to be a registered grid user to fetch data from the grid. More information about accessing GRID resources can be found on the GRID User Interface page. You may want to view the Lofar VO contents list on the grid

For more information about the status of the CS1 system have a look at the LOFAR log environment and the presentations presented at the LOFAR Status Meeting.

L2006_00417 24Oct06 4 listfen:/cephome/data 16(1) 2, 60 MHz 160 WRONG This measurement set contains 16 correlated antennas four each from CS10 and CS8 and CS1 and CS16. First succesfull test with 16 antennas. TBD
105 20okt06 1 listfen:/cephome/data 12(1) 8, 60 MHz 160 WRONG This measurement set contains 12 correlated antennas four each from CS10 and CS8 and CS1, where the timing on CS1 is about 3 sec. off. First succesfull test with 12 antennas. TBD
80 11okt06 0.1 listfen:/cephome/data 8(1) 8, 60 MHz 160 WRONG This measurement is basically the same as 60, but with more valid data. Redo of test 60, or something like that. TBD
60 6okt06 0.1 listfen:/cephome/data 8(1) 8, 60 MHz 160 WRONG This measurement set contains 8 correlated antennas four each from CS10 and CS8, it's the first one where timing, antenna positions, etc. are correct, so it could be understood by the regular AIPS++ toolset. First succesfull test with 8 antennas. TBD

Classification of the UVW coordinates stored in the measurement:
  • AIPS: Correct UVW coordinates, AIPS(++) convention.
  • FLIP_U: Correct UVW coordinates, U component sign-flipped w.r.t. AIPS(++) convention
  • FLIP_V: Correct UVW coordinates, V component sign-flipped w.r.t. AIPS(++) convention
  • FLIP_W: Correct UVW coordinates, W component sign-flipped w.r.t. AIPS(++) convention
  • WRONG: Incorrect UVW coordinates, e.g. due to wrong station positions
  • TDB: To be determined
