WEEKLY MEETING MINUTES January 12 - 18 1. Announcements ----------------- None. 2. Operations Constraints ------------------------- * DSN schedule: Continuous contact; however there are several down-link only (telemetry only; no commanding), contacts (DSS-45): Tuesday 21:30 - 00:35 UT (5:30 pm - 7:35 pm local GSFC time) Sunday 21:30 - 00:35 UT (5:30 pm - 7:35 pm local GSFC time) Also, yesterday SOC was informed of several gaps in the prime MDI continuous contact due to various launches. Daniel Muhonen commented that these gaps are trying to be filled at JPL, MDI has received listing of the gaps and are evaluating the potential impact. * Submode Switches: Will be in Submode #6 all week. 3. Coordinated Observations ---------------------------- Planned observations include: M Jan 12 (W03) JOP077 (#4025) UVCS/CDS/LASCO/EIT, Time Evolution of Streamers.

KPNO will be able to contribute IR spectroscopic data from Jan 13-16. Sac Peak and Big Bear will also participate. JOP077 -- UVCS will be observing at 1.6 solar radii the first few days then progress outward to farther radii. On the 17th and 18th, they will run a similar program over coronal hole regions. CDS will support and move along several positions on the streamer axis. EIT -- Line ratio CME watch continues during working hours when not supporting JOP063. Their CME watch images are enough support to contribute to JOP077. Joe Gurman will be out of town for a few days next week, on: Tuesday & Wednesday: Kevin Schenk will be planner Thursday: Jeff Newmark LASCO -- Synoptic in Submode #6. Will perform C1 observations in FeXIV, doppler scans Monday - Wednesday. Perhaps take some red line polar plume sequences... will discuss timing of these with EIT. MDI -- In continuous contact.
