General Description

We propose to observe Herbig stars to find if they have companions. This
 will increase our sample of target to do spectroscopy afterwards and verify if the
 system is indeed multiple. The bigger picture of this study is to understand the
 formation of intermediate mass stars et if possible draw conclusions on low and
 high mass formation as well. 
This is an starightforward observation where we need to resolve binaries.
The stars are bright enough to be used as reference. Therefore, I didn't specify
 the reference on my finding charts.

I set priorities for the observations depending on the execution time length. Some
 are too long but I left them just in case.
Finally, I specified the brightest star of each FoV in the comment of each OB.
