O.K.!

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

Special Remarks:
Please watch out for the scattered light from the very bright 5.6 mag star in the field (see README).

Abstract for MTS:
IPOL B-band observations of z=0.4 AGN. There is a bright star in the field. The position angle has been chosen in order to cover this bright star with one of the PMOS slitlets.

Following a problem with the identification of the right target, the PI selected R-band filter in the acquisition (the target has a red spectrum). Please note that there are MULITPLE finding charts attached and on the I-band image taken with FORS2 the target is clearly visible. In case of problems due to scattered light of the bright star, try playing with cuts in display - this enables one to see the target in the acquisition.
Unforutnately blind offset is NOT an option, because there is no way to set offsets different from y axis offsets in IPOL templates. :(
