Special Remarks:
Run A should be executed in October 2009. More time critical aspects in the README

Abstract for MTS:

NACO L27 observations aiming at deriving the orbital motion of the planetary mass companion around beta Pic (BPIC).

Both BPIC and the PSF star (HR 2435) are very bright, K=3.5 and K=4.2, respectively. Please, read the README file carefully.

Change of instrument might be needed after the execution of the pair Science+PSF until remnants are gone

Time Critical

Science OB has to be executed prior to the PSF star
Science OB must start between LST 04h17-05h17
Science OB must have a total execution time (counting from the moment you press "START"on BOB) of 44-45min
In order to account for variations in the time spent doing the acquisition, additional templates were added to the OB. The night astronomer must stop the OB when the execution time reaches 44-45min and move to the PSF OB.

Saturation

The first template takes images with the ND_long in. In those frames, BPIC should be kept within the linear regime. Adjust DITs if necessary
In the following templates, the ND filter is taken out and the core will saturate. Saturation should be retstrict to 4-5pixel in the core of PSF. Adjust DITs if necessary.
Comments applies for the Science and PSF OBs
