General Description

High resolution spectroscopy of supernovae.
Acquisition: point using coordinates in OBs.

Notes about finding charts, acquisition:

The finding charts have been created using pre-explosion images i.e. the supernova
 (target)
is indicated with an arrow pointing to a circle.
Secondly, the goal of the programme is to identify narrow lines in the spectra of
 the targets. Many of these supernovae are old and may not necessarily show up in
 the slit viewer images as their *broadband* emission may be too faint. This does
 not mean that the narrow lines are not present or cannot be observed.

The suggested strategy is to point and integrate. Given the 1" pointing accuracy
 of the VLT together with the wide (3") slit, one can be reasonably confident that
 the target has landed in the slit.
