General Description

This is a simple high resolution spectroscopy program for bright HB stars.
While some of the objects are flux standards themselves, the standard
calibration plan as specified by ESO for FEROS is sufficient. Given the
brightness of the objects (the target stars are the brightest objects in
the circle drawn at the centre of each finder chart) and the low constraints,
it is an ideal FILLER PROGRAM!

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

The OBs from this program can be executed under almost any
ambient conditions. Exposure times within the OBs have been
calculated for a seeing of 2", making sure that no saturation
will occur even at seeing <0.8" (i.e. no slit losses due to seeing)
However since all estimations were made using the FEROS ETC rather than
experience, we would like the observer to check for saturation effects
in conditions of good seeing. We can tolerate thin cirrus; thick cirrus
will probably result in a too big drop of S/N.

Time-Critical Aspects

In General no time critical aspects. Please note that two stars are north
of +20 Degrees. OBs belonging to the same target do not need to be observed
on the same night.
