General Description
pre imaging run.
Each OB give us the field of view corresponding to the field of the Trans-Neptunians
objects
at the beginning of the nights of the run B and C, except for the "PRE_fieldori"
OB that is
a field of a cluster of well know stars which will serve as very precise astrometric
calibrators
for our astrometric science field (run B).
"PRE_field1999tc" and "PRE_fieldori" OBs must be performed before the run B (10/14/2005)
"PRE_fieldaw197a", before 12/23/2005; "PRE_fieldaw197b", before 01/05/2006 and "PRE_fieldaw197c",
before 02/27/2006 in the aim to detect all the sources of the field and find, without
ambiguity,
our science targets. If the run C is performed during the first opportunity (12/23/2005),
the
other fields ("PRE_fieldaw197b" and "PRE_fieldaw197c") aren't required.
Waiver Requests
076.C-0801A.01.WAV APPROVED:
"Your waiver request to be allowed to saturate the detector by a factor 2
was granted, provided that you use the minimum DIT."
brightest objects in our field of view are:
for PRE-fielaw197a, mV:11.4
for PRE-fielaw197b, mV:10.5
for PRE-fielaw197d, mV:10.8
for PRE-fiel1999tc, mV:11.3
for PRE-fieldori, mV:5.1

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 ?
If you have PSF reference star OBs, do the names of those OBs begin with
PSF_ ?
If there are Finding Charts attached to your OBs, is the field-of-view
of at least one of these charts 2' x 2' (with clearly labelled field orientation)
?
Have you clearly marked and labelled your wavefront reference objects
R1, R2, R3, ... (as specified in the NAOS Preparation Software) on your Finding
Charts ?
Have you specified the magnitude of the brightest object in the field-of-view
for each OB ?
Are there objects in any of your fields (including standard stars) which
are brighter than the limits specified in the User Manual and on NACO web Pages
?
If the previous answer is yes, have you given a list of OBs and a justification
for the brightness limit violation in the general description field ?
