General Description

Unfortunately, little is known about broad absorption line quasars rest-frame
 optical and IR spectral properties. To unveil the nature of BALQSO in these energetic
 range, we proposed LBQS 2212-1759 (z=2.217) for XSHOOTER simultaneous high resolution
 broad-band observations. To achieve our scientific objectives we aim for a SNR>10
 in the continuum over the whole rest-frame UV-Optical-NIR range, to be able to characterize
 properly the emission lines and absorption features. Following the example in page
 30 from the X-shooter User Manual and output from the ETC, we need:
1 cycle of ABBA with: 1 exposure of 700s in UVB, 2 exposures of 320s in VIS and
 3 exposures of 245s in NIR. The total exposure (including overheads) is 3582s.
