Operations CXO Status Report

Friday 11 October 2019 9.00am EDT

During the last week Chandra completed the observing schedule as planned.

A real-time procedure was executed Oct 8 to perform a diagnostic dump of the Control Processing Electronics (CPE). An additional real-time procedure was executed Oct 9 to perform full-frame dark current readouts of the Aspect Camera Assembly CCD.

The schedule of targets for the next week is shown below and includes an observation of EXO 1846-031, which is a follow-up to a Target of Opportunity which was accepted on Aug 1 and is coordinated with VLA, NICER, NUSTAR, and Gemini, and observations of AT2019pev, which was accepted as a Target of Opportunity on Oct 2.
