Countdown to AOS Commissioning
Over the last year, the AOS Commissioning Team has worked on brainstorming and detailing the different tests and validations that will be needed to commission the Active Optics System (AOS). This involves validating the Wavefront Estimation Pipelines (WEP), the alignments and basic controls of the system, the Look-Up Tables (LUTs), and the Closed-Loop Control. This session will work as an open discussion session. After a short introduction of the AOS On-sky Commissioning status, we will open a discussion session on what are (1) Visualization tools, (2) Datasets, (3) Data analysis, (4) Possibilities of testing in AuxTel.
Attendees are welcome to review the AOS Commissioning Test List (available to staff through Confluence). Discussion is encouraged to strengthen the plan as we approach the first photon milestone!
Agenda:
1. What is the Active Optics System and what is the latest status?
2. Brief ts_imsim update
3. AOS Test discussion

The National Science Foundation (NSF) and the US Department of Energy (DOE) will support Rubin Observatory in its operations phase to carry out the Legacy Survey of Space and Time. They will also provide support for scientific research with the data. During operations, NSF funding is managed by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy (AURA) under a cooperative agreement with NSF, and DOE funding is managed by SLAC National Accelerator Laboratory (SLAC), under contract by DOE. Rubin Observatory is operated by NSF's National Optical-Infrared Astronomy Research Laboratory (NOIRLab) and SLAC.
NSF is an independent federal agency created by Congress in 1950 to promote the progress of science. NSF supports basic research and people to create knowledge that transforms the future.
We are privileged to conduct research on Cerro Pachón in Chile, and acknowledge the Indigenous communities in Chile as the natural protectors of these lands.
