Yes, 1 minute cadence, full disk Magnetograms and Dopplergrams with 96 minute synoptic Magnetograms and Continuum images ca be used to your study. So we welcome this support of MDI for our campaign. Of course, HR would be much better, but we completely understand MDI limitations for that period. Nevertheless, we are happy to have continuum images with 96 minute cadence. They are essential for co-alignment of MDI magnetograms with our other data.

This would be very nice and helpful. So preferentially we ask, as a default, for the mode hr_ve_fe_me - FOV 620"x310" with high rate for the 7-13:30UT time. This you can use for your weekly plan for week 32. Only in case of real need we would ask to switch to FD for some days but guessing the solar activity this option will not be very frequent... > I'll be in touch each Thursday with a new weekly plan for the upcoming week.

Until that time please keep HR as default (if possible). We wil see how high rate times will fall to our 'preffered time' next week. (This Sunday is optimal). One simple question: which data will be available outside "High Rate Cam Times" given in the "current-week"? None? Or just lower cadence? We are full of expectations how our 2007 camapaign will be. Last year we have got few nice data sets by DOT+CDS+MDI+TRACE+RHESSI coordinated observations (http://www.astro.sk/~choc/open/06_dot/plan.txt). Work is in progress on these data for refereed publications (first presentations on workshops were already given). So we expect the same or even more this year. Also due to this we are very happy that it was possible to change FD for HR for this weekend.

We apologize for making some additional work to you but due to new AR appearing on the East we would like to ask you for some changes of the MDI plan for week 32, if it is possible. Namely: Tue 7/8 : change the plan for FD FOV : MAG 1min cadence, INT at least 96min cadence (AR 1-966 will be still out of the MDI HR FOV....) Wed 8/8 : keep the plan for HR FOV (as planned) but please position center of the FOV at (x,y)=(-10,-180) keeping it of dimensions 1024x512. MAG 1min cadence, INT at least 96min cadence. We know from your previous emails that: >Right now, SOHO is upside down (roll angle 180 degrees). >The MDI HR FOV right now, extends 432 arcseconds south of disk center >and 188 arcseconds north of disk center, 320 arcseconds east of disk >center and 300 arcseconds west of disk center. >Most MDI HR campaigns can be positioned anywhere within the HR FOV. The reason is clear - AR 10966 is to far to south to be seen in the MDI HR 1024x512 FOV centered at the disk center. For next days (Thu 9/8, Fri 10/8) we will stay with HR FOV, for the weekend we will decide later. Dear Sarah, would it be possible to perform these changes in the MDI plan for week 32?

So to repeat the basics: FD for the whole week 33, high rate in our 'prime time' only on Saturday. We hope that on the other days of the week 33 some magnetograms will be still possible to get as this type of data is important for our projects. What are the limitations for MDI for week 34 and 35? Will be some FD mags available during this period?
