[alma-config] telecon this Wednesday

[Leonia Kogan]

I have designed the 14km configuration minimizing sidelobes with the 
topography constraint. The configuration has a donut type (width 0.25)
Sidelobes of snapshot is ~0.06.  Without topography constraint it was 0.056.
The plots of the configuration with UV coverage, of beam and configuration 
on the terrain are available at PS format

ALMA Configuration Group Telecon 

Date:  14 June 2000.

Time:  11:00am EDT.

Phone: (804)296-7082 (CV SoundStation Conference phone)

Past minutes, etc on http://www.alma.nrao.edu/development/config/index.html.

Agenda:

1. The updated project book chapter 
(http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~myun/mma/config/chap15.pdf) has been sent to D. 
Emerson.

2. Simulation Image Library.  The first 4 FITS model images for 
imaging simulations are now available at 
http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~myun/mma/imaging/sil.html.
Some of these images are better suited for only high or low resolution
imaging while others may be generally suitable.  We should
revisit the simulation strategy decided at the Tucson meeting.  

3. Updates on strawperson configurations.  The strawperson
configurations are now available at the ALMA Configuration Group Page, 
(http://www.alma.nrao.edu/development/config/index.html).
Are we missing any critical information here?  Does anyone have other 
competing configuration ideas that need to be listed separately?

4. Effect of Pointing Error has been investigated by K. Morita.
See his report at http://www.tuc.nrao.edu/~kmorita/CONFIG/PERR1.html.

Does anyone have any new progress to report?  I will update the
agenda page (http://www.aoc.nrao.edu/~myun/mma/14jun2000.html) as 
new items are suggested for discussion.
