USD review status:
O.K.!

Pre-Imaging? Special-Calibration? Time-Critical? ToO/GTO/Large program? Carry-Over?

Special Remarks:
After each science OB there must be a PSF calibration OB observed. There is a separate PSF calibration OB defined for each science OB.

Abstract for MTS:
IFU spectroscopy of AGN host galaxies. To calibrate the spatial PSF, which the user needs to do to subtract of the AGN component, a set of PSF calibration stars in separate OBs have been produced. These PSF calibration stars must be observed directly after the science OBs: this has been allowed via a waiver. The relation between science and calibration OBs is as follow science OB PSF cal OB IFU_MS1138.1+0400_1 IFU_CSI+06-11429_CAL_1 IFU_MS1138.1+0400_2 IFU_CSI+06-11429_CAL_2 IFU_MS1158.6-0323_1 IFU_HD106174_CAL_1 IFU_MS1158.6-0323_2 IFU_HD106174_CAL_2 IFU_MS1408.1+2617_1 IFU_CSI+19-14114_CAL_1 IFU_MS1408.1+2617_2 IFU_CSI+19-14114_CAL_2 IFU_MS1408.1+2617_3 IFU_CSI+19-14114_CAL_3 IFU_MS2144.9-2012_1 IFU_HD208446_CAL_1 IFU_MS2144.9-2012_2 IFU_HD208446_CAL_2 The first observation of each such PSF star is placed in all 4 quadrants, subsequent observations are only placed in one quadrant. The OBs for MS1158.6-0323 contain an offset sky exposure (offset by 30" in RA) between the two object exposures, which are at the same location. This is due to the source almost completely filling the IFU field of view. The offset sky is shorter than the "on target" observations, as the target is bright and not sky limited. The first observation of each such PSF star is placed in all 4 quadrants, subsequent observations are only placed in one quadrant.
