15.5 Paper Products

After the data from an observation have been received and processed through the STScI pipeline, hardcopy products (paper products) are generated which summarize the data obtained. The paper products are sent to the observer together with the data to provide a first look at the observations and their quality. Here we briefly describe the NICMOS paper products.

Paper products typically summarize the set of exposures that constitute a visit in the Phase II proposal. The set of exposures can be either individual datasets or associations. Paper products are produced by accessing the appropriate keywords in the dataset headers or in the association tables.

A given page of the NICMOS paper products falls into one of two categories: visit-level page or exposure-level page. The content of the pages is as follows:

Visit-Level Pages

Cover Page: contains the proposal ID, the visit number, the PI's last name, and the proposal title.
Explanatory Notes: a set of notes explaining the information contained in the paper products.
Target List: a table listing the targets of the observations being summarized (Figure 15.4).
Observation Summary: a table summarizing the proposal information for each exposure in the present set, including processing and data quality flags (Figure 15.4).
Optional Parameters: a table listing the optional parameters, other than the Pattern related parameters, used in the observations (Figure 15.4).
Observing Pattern Strategy: a table listing the observing pattern used for each exposure in the set (Figure 15.5).

Exposure-level Pages

Exposure Plots: a graphical representation of the data contained in each exposure, including the final calibrated science image and, in case of associations, successive pages containing a cartoon of the observing pattern plus the on-target and background individual images (Figure 15.6, Figure 15.7, and Figure 15.8).
Data Quality Summary: a summary of the spacecraft performance, pipeline processing status, and calibration data quality for each exposure.
Calibration Reference File Summary: a summary of the calibration processing switches and reference files used to process each exposure (Figure 15.9).
