General Description

Deep integration of a gravitationally lensed z=3 galaxy in the H and K
 band. "Core" and "Arc" correspond to the 14" long low-surface brightness part and
 the high surface-brightness knot at the southern tip, respectively. Two pointings
 are required to cover the full extent of the arc ("arc only" and "arc+core"). The
 regions are shown in the finding chart. 

Total observing time is 4 hrs for the "arc only" in the K band (4 OBs) and 2 hours
 of the "arc+core" and "arc only" in the H band (2 OBs each), respectively. Highest
 priority is the "arc only" in K (OB e0657_arc_K). 2nd priority is the e0657_arc_and_core_H,
 3rd priority is e0657_arc_H. Priorities are also given in the OBs. 

Beware, this is target is very faint! We do not expect strong continuum emission,
 and line emission will probably not be obvious in the single OBs. Foreground objects
 (see finding chart) will show up in some of the frames, depending on the dither
 position. K-band magnitudes are 13.3 and 13.9 mag for the foreground galaxy and
 star, respectively. ECT gives 10000 to 12000 e- for these settings and DIT,hence
 no saturation. Coordinates of the acquisition star are from USNO (ID U0300_02558282),
 with K=13.5 (2Mass).

Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are not part of the Calibration Plan ?

```
N/A
```

If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris files to your OBs?

```
N/A
```

If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?

```
N/A
```

Did you indicate the magnitude of the brightest object in the field in each SINFONI OB?

N/A
```

If you are using the AO: Did you indicate for every OB the magnitude of the guide star, and its distance to the target (if any)?

```
N/A
```

If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you use the provided StandardStar templates?

```
N/A
```

If you are using a specific offset pattern or position angle: did you check carefully the definition in the manual?

Did you make really sure that none of your OBs ever saturates the detector?

If you are using the AO: did you enter the correct Strehl Ratio (on-axis, K-band) AND the seeing value in the constraint set?
