General Description

• The program's goal is to obtain high resolution imaging of E+A galaxies
   in B & R filters. The galaxies are relatively small in size (~15" diameter)
   since the redshifts are z~=0.1. However, we are also interested in the sourrounding
   regions (~60" diameter), to look for low SB (B=~25.5 mag/sq.") tidal tails or other
   signs for recent mergers.
  
  The targets should in general be located close to the center of CCD #46. For targets
   without close bright stars this is achieved by a RA offset of -100" and rotator=0.0.
   The exposure times for the B filter is 100s, 525s, 525s and for the R filter 30s,
   130s, 130s.
  
  The following targets have relatively bright stars in the FoV and we aim to put
   the bright stars outside the FoV of CCD#46 in order to avoid bad saturation and
   bleeding. This is generally achieved by a rotation of +-90 degrees around the bright
   star position so that the star falls on chip #45 or in the gap between the CCDs.
  
  List of OBs with bright star problem:
  E+A_1, E+A_7, E+A_9, E+A_10 
  
  The targets are circled on the finding charts. The position of the SUSI2 FoV is
   only schematically indicated when a rotation is applied.
  
  All OBs have total execution times of 30min.
