From shawhan_p@ligo.caltech.edu Thu Nov 11 14:40:13 2004 Date: Thu, 11 Nov 2004 11:40:04 -0800 From: Peter Shawhan To: Keith Riles Cc: stochastic@ligo.caltech.edu, Gaby Subject: S3 data quality flags for periods with stochastic injections Hi Keith, Gaby pointed out that we should probably have a data quality flag to mark the time interval during S3 when the stochastic hardware injection was on; this would make it easier for the Stochastic Group to ensure that these times are excluded from their analyses, for instance. Here are the time intervals, annotated with segment numbers: H1: 752232759 752236725 3966 H1-41 752242398 752245222 2824 H1-42 H2: 752228006 752229393 1387 H2-50 752229924 752245250 15326 H2-51 L1: 752227926 752227935 9 L1-23 752228035 752228624 589 L1-24 752228676 752229514 838 L1-25 752229523 752230547 1024 L1-26 752232937 752243713 10776 L1-27 I would suggest a data quality flag called INJECTION_STOCHASTIC, or maybe something shorter, if you prefer.
