SOHO Daily Meeting Minutes for Monday 19 May 2003
ANNOUNCEMENTS
-------------
* There is a chance there will be a (non-science) roll maneuver during the
next two weeks, to diagnose the High Gain Antenna anomaly. See note under
AOB for details.
* Current RHESSI default target is AR10362. When selecting this
target to maximize coordination w/others, use campaign number 6850.
* SPWG on Friday in the EOF after the Daily & Weekly meetings
The draft minutes will be sent out later today.

Daily Meeting for Tuesday, May 20
Visitors:
---------
Welcome to L. Teriaca from Lindau, leader of the JOP "Ulysses
quadrature", D. Banerjee from Leuven and L. Dame from Service
d'Aeronomie, leaders of JOP 163.
N. Cornilleau and P. Canu, from the CLUSTER consortium, joined
us also today as well as B. Schmieder (Meudon), A. Berlicki
(Meudon), and N. Labrosse (Aberystwyth).
Announcement:
-------------
Due to a slit soft problem, programs of the last week-end
as well as Ulysses quadrature observations on Monday 19, were
interrupted. This is a consequence of the fact that SUMER was left,
at the end of the last flare campaign, not in the nominal state.
A reinitialisation procedure has been carried out this afternoon,
during the commanding time.
JOP 163 : D. Banerjee asks for a TRACE support in MDI HighRes
fov, on quiet sun.

AOB

* Since early May, encoder readings from the High Gain Antenna E-W (Z axis)
drive have been anomalous, with three lost pulses and two pulses somewhat
out of phase. The last pulse (on Saturday), however, was in phase. It is
possible that the Program[me] Office may ask for a spacecraft roll in the
next two weeks to determine the true pointing of the HGA, in order to confirm
whether the anomaly occurred in real antenna motion or in an encoder. Such a
roll would need to be scheduled on too short notice to allow detailed science
planning, and could in in any case result in a brief disruption of science
operations. We would also like to avoid any substantive mechanism movements
during the roll.
