Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This project aims to take optical spectra of candidates binaries brown
dwarfs.Some are obvious, some other not.All the first step of this project was done
with SOFI:images were taken at 2 or 3 differents epochs to look for movements around
known brown dwarfs.So all the finding charts provided are SOFI images in J or K.
Most of the time, the acquisition is done with the RotToSlit template to put the
2 targets when visible inside the slit.The components are identified as A and B
(or C in one case).
For some candidates the 2 components are not visible because too close, and so I
have represented the slit to give the orientation.In those cases the acquisition
is done with MoveToSlit and the rotator angle is set to the correct value.
The time exposure for the acquisition could be adjusted to see the two components.
We do not ask for special calibration. We need standard star (with the same set
up than our stars), bias, flat and arcs.
BUT as we have more time than needed (because change in the target list) we request
MORE standard stars. We want to have at least 4 standard stars for each night of
observation (if the OBs are not done in the same time). The execution time is around
8h50.

Is this a Pre-imaging run ?
Pre-imaging Requirements
Source(s) of Pre-imaging
Pre-imaging sources not listed above
Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed
on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?
If this is a pre-imaging run, did you select PRE-IMAGING for the Observing
Category for each Observing Template ?
Do all your finding charts comply with both the general and instrument-specific
Phase 2 Web Pages ?
If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you specify the magnitude
and spectral type of all standard stars in the OBs ?
Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are
not part of the Calibration Plan ?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make
use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?
If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities,
did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
