HST Quarterly Review Page 1 Space Telescope Science Institute 12 February 2004 SI Status: COS STScI Support of COS Thermal-Vacuum Testing COS Thermal-Vacuum Testing at Ball All vacuum testing completed in late October Additonal post-TV OSM-motion characterization under N 2 purge completed in Nov SI open-shutter light-leak test performed; results well below limits STScI Thermal-Vac participation Closely coordinated STScI support activities with IDT STScI COS Instrument Scientists provided onsite support for SI operation, data-taking, and analysis in all phases of Thermal-Vacuum testing Keyes, Sembach, Leitherer, Friedman, and Bohlin stood multiple-day shifts as data analysts Hartig provided frequent onsite optical alignment support STScI provided OPUS processing, conversion to FITS, and HDA-archival of all COS Thermal-Vacuum and N 2 purge data Processed approximately 3300 datasets through to archive Also calibrated all science datasets with development version of STSDAS calcos -Minor keyword updates identified Supported COS pre-ship review and GSFC review of OSM-motion data analysis Optic Select Mechanism settles by more than 1 resel per 3600 sec following some large moves; agreed testing and operational fix to be explored
