Maybe see you there....

New Memo on inference of phase coefficients

I've just posted the completed version of the first memo on the
inference of phase correction coefficients. This the link to the memo:

http://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/~bn204/publications/2009/ALMAMemo587.pdf

All of the software and data is available for download from here:

A note on using 183 GHz Water Vapour Radiometers to correct total power observations

I've posted a short note on using 183 GHz Radiometers to correct for
the atmospheric emission fluctuations that can limit total power
observations. The note is available at:

http://www.mrao.cam.ac.uk/~bn204/publications/2009/tpower-v01.pdf

The attached graph is a summary of how well the correction would is
expected to work -- see the article for the detail.
