Major Instrument Modes: ISAAC SW LR spectroscopy

RA Range: 2.2

Constraint set (Typical seeing, Transparency,Airmass, FLI, Moon distance): 0.6 2CLR 1.5 1.0 40


Pre-imaging run? No! Chilean run? No! Special calibrations? No!
Time critical? No! ToO? No! Carry-over run? No!


Special Remarks:


 
 
  Low resolution spectroscopy of the companion to a bright star. 
The original proposal included LW observations that have been dropped
because of a wrong assessment of its feasibility. The original transparency 
constraint has been relaxed to 2CLR. 

  Due to the proximity to the primary, good seeing is a strong
requirement for this program. Acquisition is done by offsetting from
the primary. Slit orientation chosen so as to optimize the disentangling
between the spectrum of the secondary and the glare of the primary. 

  User provided a telluric calibration star which supersedes the calibration
plan. The OBs for the calibration violate the 1-min per position rule.
Admitted, being a standard. NOTE: the standard for the K-band
observation needs to be done only once; when the science target is observed 
for a second time at that wavelength, the calibration plan will
suffice.

  No time constraints, observations in the diferent wavelength settings
can be done on different nights.
