High-level Summary
Community Interactions, Meetings and Workshops
DM supported the ComCam on sky review August 13 and 14, a few tier one recommendations were added to the glass review list to ensure we are safe to bring M1M3 in the dome and operate ComCam.
Trys McCann went to Chile as the final “DM support at the summit” traveler before ComCam on sky.
Technical Progress
A response was drafted to potential recommendations from the DM Standards Review and some quotes were requested for door locks on the summit - this will require some iteration as we get the final report.
Released rubin-env 9 including releasing containers based on AlmaLinux 9.
A single-image version of the Solar System processing pipeline, which enables detection and masking of satellite glint trails was implemented. The Alert Production pipeline was refactored to preload catalogs from the APDB in Prompt Processing before the image arrives.
The global astrometric fitting task, gbdesAstrometricFit, now supports fitting and accounting for Differential Chromatic Refraction (DCR). Recent updates enabled passing the colors from the global photometric fit to associate them with matched sources and feed them into the fitter.
New versions of Auxtel Observatory Operations Data Service (OODS) and ComCam OODS have been deployed. HTCondorhas been deployed at base and summit is ready for Batch Production Service (BPS) job testing.
Al lot of support was given to camera to get integrated on the summit - not there yet but moving along.
