Seeing measurements at OAUNI on 2016 and 2017 campaigns
Abstract
We present seeing measurements at OAUNI site gathered on 2016 and 2017 campaigns using V and R broadband filters. In order to quantify the seeing we used the full-width-at-half-maximum from stellar profiles on photometric sequences during the observational windows of our supernovae program. A typical median seeing of 1” .8 was found on 2016 and a worst value of 2” .0 on 2017. The last one was probably affected by anomalous conditions related to the 2017 extreme climatic event. The monthly first quartile analysis indicates that best seeing conditions can be achieved at a level of 1” .5. In general, our results indicate a reasonable sky quality for the OAUNI site.
