  • Request of support from instrument branches.
25min3. Updates on TSO WG tasks for Fiscal Year 2020

Pipeline readiness & preparation for TSOEveryone
  • How tickets get prioritized for different instruments is not clear right now (e.g., white-light wavelength range ticket assigned as critical for NIRCam but "only" high for MIRI). Might be good to clarify with DMS how this is worked out. It appears DMS internally have their discussions on this. 

  • Nikolay explains that this is critical for them because the full wavelength range gives rise to just larger errors in the white-light lightcurves, which is not useful for both commissioning and science.

  • Nikolay is working with Everett Schlawin on trying to get the best precision out of simulated data. This has led them to define parameter reference files to enable column-by-column background subtraction. This has to be customized for NIRCam, because currently there is only one to NIRISS.

  • Sarah mentions that we should use the DMS notebook validation testing scheme to share results. Details are here: INS Validation Testing Preparation Meeting. There's a small form on this page that you can use to add yourself to the INS testers list (& be kept up to date).

  • NIRSpec started to run their CV3 data through the pipeline. Rectification step is not performed by default for NIRSpec, so that would have to be fixed apparently. Also details about flat fields, etc. Maria Peña-Guerrero is person in NIRSpec for the DMS notebooks.

Instrument & cross-instrument TSO tasksEveryone
30min

4. TSO activities per instrument team

5minNIRISS activities/updates

Nestor Espinoza

  • Implementing a trace and extraction algorithm.
5minNIRCam activities/updates

Brian Brooks Nikolay Nikolov

  • Mainly pipeline testing (see above). Also looking at the ticket prioritization — with Bryan and Brian, Nikolay has a list of tickets.
5minNIRSpec activities/updatesTony Keyes
  • Spent most of time on ticket prioritization. Has a detailed list of these — in particular, spectral rectification currently not done on NIRSpec/BOTS, so trying to get that working. 
5minMIRI activities/updates

Sarah Kendrew

  • This week the Normal OPS is happening (general DMS system testing). Plan to run TSO tests for MIRI with it — Sarah has been asked to produce simulated data for this run, so will be working on that.

5. Exoplanet consulting expert involvement on TSO WG tasks 

TSO simulated data & noise limitations
44 hours allocated to the expert.

JWST time stamps for TSO
20 hours allocated to the expert.

JWST TSO QL tool

20 hours allocated to the expert.

  • JWST TSO QL tool will follow established practices from the transiting exoplanet field (see guidelines).

Synergies with between TSO and Coronographic WGs

Had meeting with Julien Girard on this. Idea is to work on understanding how to use TSO + Coronography. He'll be sending simulated data on this.


6. Overview of DMS TSO-related tasks
