Agenda:

1. Status of “Spikes” in all modes
2. Update on OGP calibration measurements
3. Baselines
4. High-Resolution mode
5. "Top Hat" efforts
6. Potential integration time inconsistencies when mapping (Cleared?)
7. Test Time

Meeting notes:

1. Status of “Spikes” in all modes
   • Most 'heavy lifting' happening at UCB & collaborators
2. Update on OGP calibration measurements
   • Dependent on above
   • Could use astronomical sources for "O" and "P" in Python
     • Requires changes by Paul - John will request
     • Scientist w/signal processing background needed for details (Anish or Dan W.)
     • Meet w/UCB at 2pm?
3. Baselines
   • temporal stability and high-frequency ripples (possible cabling issue?)
   • bring Steve W. and Galen into discussions
4. High-Resolution mode
   • (13*/14/18*/19) fixes (* are newly identified issues)
   • Version #149 out with DMS for testing
     • Tests of version #149 are a now higher priority - It did not look good on SRBS platform - Joe to send results to Randy
5. "Top Hat" efforts
   • Source not yet identified
     • difficulties reliably creating conditions have made it difficult to perform causal analysis
     • Ask [Richard] during observer support meeting today if Team can be notified when problem occurs during observation so that diagnostics can be tried
6. Potential integration time inconsistencies when mapping
   • resolved with existing procedures - recommend an oversampling procedure for certain maps
   • Anish drafting MR to capture observer's desire - team recommends specifications be specific
7. Test Time
   • Wednesday
     • 08:00 - 8:30 [Mello]
     • Motion after 12pm
   • Thursday
8. Other
