had quite a short work day due to imprs seminar and imprs evening.
I communicated with stefano through couple of emails regarding some questions..
one hour spent on writing up detector settings.
then started working on the stellar locus problem. Aim is to understand the locus of the stellar sources in j-k. Also, I need to check firmly the colors and with musyc since this part. so, I will do a quick revision of this checks again completely ( a quick re-do of work to confirm my plots) for Stefano.

Finish before monday or burst!!!!

Aim: to complete the data section
details: image quality and its variations, source detections (size/stellarity), flux calibrations precision, image depth with 5sigma limits

work done today: few hours for information collection on the above topics. still some questions remains for which i am contacting stefano. Remaining time today has been spent on writing the above information into the draft.

I have been working on to complete the draft. The small things are quite a lot and it takes most of my time.

sorry will update tomorrow noon.

I had spent today working on producing plots of auto magnitude validation, and write up.. I am still working on that now. Started today very late, by 2 pm. I took 4 hours break in the evening and worked on this till now (5am)..

Started working at 10.30am today.
Had spent first 1 hour reading updates/ Astroph /news.
Starting working on my report. spent around 3 hours writing couple of paragraphs on J-K color plots.
--left home at 17.30
-- started working again at 21.00
4 hours on writing construction of synthetic magnitudes, why used, alternatives, equations.
few hours checking plots on synthetic magnitudes. I am planning to include color normalized by error plot in the paper. So tomorrow, I got to use some time shaping this plot in journal format including overplotting for multiple bins.
Also, I am planning to write remaining part of the paper which is validating total fluxes. I need to check first whether this is required from the Auto-Aper plot and If so, the method for validation (as given in Taylor et al)

Started working after couple of days of bad health. Today I worked on the draft section, which I am still clinging on too :( (slow as usual )
I had to work on few sections before I conclude this in the paper. The sections, as mentioned by Stefano and HW, are
1. Compare Euclids/2mass J-K color locus of stars and check the stellar sequence in the J-K HAWKI color, as well as the calibration of J-K stars.

2. For a large galaxy, compare with Auto magnitude of SEx and a large APER. Plot the distribution of Auto mag - Aper Mag.

Will give the update about all the three above process tomorrow. I started my work today at 10.30 and worked will 4.30 when one of the indian colleague dislocated his shoulder bone while playing football at the institute and I had to take him to the hospital. I am trying to resume work now for couple of hours.

I am back to Blogging.. I am at the moment writing up the draft on photometry. I will keep posted in this blog details about the draft like which section am I working on etc. in the future.. This is just to start with!
