Working and use of 152 cm

Involved people at OAB: Zitelli, Bernabei, De Blasi, Gualandi, Mezzini, Muzi, Salomoni, Bregoli, Ciattaglia, Innocenti, Marchesini.

The 152cm telescope G.Cassini is available about 350 nights/year. About half of this time is really useful for observations, due to weather conditions. The statistics of this last years is given in table 2. Time is allocated every 6 months, starting in January and July, avoiding excessive fragmentation of observing time, which would be compatible with the typical weather condition of the site. The resident staff is composed by 6 technicians.

See par.8.6 to have an updated situation of the Loiano computer facility. It is possible to have a prereduction of the observations with a PC in a local network with the Pc for the observations. MIDAS and IRAF packages are available.
