Agenda:

1. Current issues and limitations with line/cube cleaning

• Status of pipeline processing of cubes 
  
• News on QA: 
  
  • ?
    
  • Thomas on CO?
    
  • Anyone else?
    
  • Melanie: SiO cube and spw1
    
    • no beam issue
      
    • divergence and blanked channels in CLASS: needs revision 
      

• Previous QA reports: 
  
  • Fabrice on W43-MM2
    
    • https://drive.google.com/file/d/1WsqEGN626VtuSqXrJyeMSF1NVvLBqtUq/view
      
  • Melisse on G337:
    
    • B3-spw0 and B6-spw1: clean not deep enough → thresholds updated in imaging_parameters.py
      
  • Friedrich on G327 in B3?
    
    • no big issues
      
    • fits do not have the beamsize?
      
  • Melanie on W33: started with B6, no big issues together with Tapas on N2H+, Melanie on SiO
    

For anyone doing QA: only look at cubes generated from November onwards, only zoomed  N2H+ and SiO  + fullcubes B3 spw 0 and B6 spw 1.

1. Status of on-going projects

• Antoine: Melanie (PhD) on shocks :
  
• Manuel+Estrella 
  
• LAB: 
  
  • Melisse on G337: building spectral line density maps to search for (faint) hot cores towards G337.
    
  • Nathalie/Fabrice W43-MM2: 
    

• Anyone else?
  
• Friedrich: G327
  

Someone in the Koln group is working on the G327 field, looking for hot cores.

A script to download a bunch of cubes at once using Globus in command line is in:
https://github.com/ALMA-IMF/private-work/tree/master/misc
(Note: to access to /private-work you need to be added by Adam)

1. Status of data processing tools (ADMIT, IMAGER)
   • Status of tests with IMAGER
     
   • Status of the update of the linelist for ADMIT ? 
     
   • Adam: Linelist  on github + google doc
     

    https://github.com/ALMA-IMF/hotcores <- place to put line lists, code related to hot cores, etc.  This is private, so you must request access (give Adam your username)
