Agenda
CASA/JIVE VLBI Coordination Meeting
2019 June 28 @ 1400UTC
Logistics
Future Meeting dates (usually last Wed of the month):
2019 Jul 31?
(George has conflict)
2019 Aug 28?
2019 Sep 25?
General Admin
CASA 5.6/6.0
CASA 5.6 Confluence page
Feature freeze: 2019 Jun 07
Currently in validation/bug-fixing period, release branch in next few weeks
Public
CASA 5.6/6.0 release by end of July
ALMA/EVLA pipeline release by Oct 1.
EHT-related article planned for next newsletter, expected ~alongside CASA 5.6 pipeline release
Probably a contribution from Michael Janssen, via Ilse
(Mark) EHT polarization workshop
In Bonn, in July; EHT members only. Mark may adapt some ad hoc resolved-calibrator polarization-calibration scripts as tasks.
(Mark) Summer student at JIVE investigating scpetral line VLBI with CASA
Jay Blanchard now in Socorro, cultivating interest in CASA VLBI (also SRDP)
Some discussion of fringefit in recent local CASA User group meetings
(Ryan) CASA Next Generation Infrastructure
Trade studies ongoing...
Other admin?
Development/Features
(Mark) Requirements collation
ConsolidatedRequirements
....Any news? Janssen contribution?
VLBI Integration branch: CAS-12325
Any issues?
Items for CASA 5.6/6.0 development
(George) CASA 6 VLBI task interface verification
(Mark) fringefit task: coordinating with Bob Garwood. OK?
(Mark) fringefit unittest using real data: Status?
(George) Calibration changes ~relevant to VLBI:
CAS-6747: Relative frequency interpolation for channel-dependent calibration
CAS-11552: Updates to multiband delay solves in gaincal for heterogeneous spws
SolveDataBuffer
::centroidFreq / SDList::aggregateCentroidFreq. (cf SDBList::centrodFreq added for fringefit)
(George) Look into correlation-dependent flagging issue (CAS-695)
No progress, unfortunately. Defer to 5.7.
(Des) Dispersive term
(Des) CAS-12493: Extended fringefit
CalTable
for dispersive term support
PR #995 pending. Awaiting final validation?
(User warning since not backward compatible?)
(Des) Work on actual solve ongoing for CASA 5.7, including user control and an FFT-based option for estimating the dispersive term.
(Des) CAS-12480: fringefit performance/stability issues traced to neglecting some terms in fit accumulations; now on track to validate for 5.6
PR #984 merged June 4
(Des) CAS-xxxxx? fringefit weighting control implemented
Status?
(Des) CAS-12501 Iteration control (niter) for fringefit
PR #994 merged June 26
(Des) Baseline stacking
(Des) Wide bandwidth
(George) perscan interpolation option? (5.7)
(George) consider overlapping solution intervals? (5.7)
(Walter) Advanced VLBA Amplitude calibration a la Walker memo from a few years ago
Bandpass normalization flexibility: voltage vs. power
Verification/Validation/Documentation
(Jay) Testing of fringe fitting with a model... status?
(George) Confer with Kumar on improving warnings for convolved model images or with wrong units
TBD
(Mark/George) Status of recent casacore changes?
SIGMA/WEIGHT storage manager fix
FITSIDI Single-band case
AOB?
