|

| 23 | \begin{verbatim}
|
|---|
| 24 | email Nicola Galante: \\
|
|---|
| 25 | \\
|
|---|
| 26 | I calculated duty-cycle with a Sun zenith angle greater
|
|---|
| 27 | than 105 deg, which means that Sun must be at least 15 deg below
|
|---|
| 28 | horizon, and not with an angle of 115 deg. I tried this calculation also
|
|---|
| 29 | with a limit of 108 deg, because a lot of people assume that the
|
|---|
| 30 | astronomical sunset is when the Sun is 18 deg below horizon. Using this
|
|---|
| 31 | assumption the calculated duty-cycle decreases of about 4\%(from 1.225 to
|
|---|
| 32 | 1.18 srad per year or from 9.75\% to 9.36\% vs 4pi srad per year). Anyway
|
|---|
| 33 | the definition of astronomical sunset influence the main cut on duty-cycle.
|
|---|
| 34 | About wind I can say that the data I used were provided by NOT, which is
|
|---|
| 35 | situated in a place more windy than where MAGIC is growing up. I made
|
|---|
| 36 | the calculation also with other upper limits to wind's speed then the
|
|---|
| 37 | usual 10 m/s, and we can gain quite a lot of duty-cycle (even about
|
|---|
| 38 | 1.5\%more vs 4pi srad per year) so it should be interesting to test the
|
|---|
| 39 | telescope during some windy or foggy days.

|
|---|
| 46 | If some significance is seen, observe the same position next night to get some OFF-data.
