Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)

• 11 hours

General Description

• This is a simple spectroscopic programme consisting of 
  ten OBs for eight different targets in Chamaeleon.
  
  Time constraints:
  ---> ob-chaha1-a and ob-chaha1-b should ideally be executed in the same night
  (or at least the next night).
  
  ---> similar, ob-chaha7-a and ob-chaha7-b should ideally be executed in the same
   night
  (or at least the next night).
  
  All other OBs can be executed independently in any 
  night between January and March 2006 whenever the 
  relaxed observing conditions are met.
  
  For the following five OBs, the total execution time exceeds one hour: 
  ob-chaha12  : 72 min
  ob-chaha1-a : 79 min 
  ob-chaha1-b : 79 min 
  ob-chaha7-a : 95 min
  ob-chaha7-b : 96 min 
  
  A waiver request (WaiverID:  076.C-0847A.01) was approved 
  on August 4.

Waiver Requests

• WaiverID:  076.C-0847A.01
  
  A waiver request was approved on August 4
  to exceed the maximum duration of one hour and submit 
  OBs with longer total time. 
  As stated in the answer from ESO:
  "waiver would be granted for separate OBs of 
  up to 6000s exp. time + overhead"
  
  The following OBs are affected (the total execution time is given in 
  parantheses) and all stay within the time limit stated in the answer from ESO:
  
  ob-chaha12  : 72 min 
  ob-chaha1-a : 79 min  
  ob-chaha1-b : 79 min 
  ob-chaha7-a : 95 min
  ob-chaha7-b : 96 min

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• All OBs can be executed under a seeing of 2" and bright time.
  Thin cirrus clouds (inducing absorption up to 0.2 mag) may be present. 
  The airmass should be below 2.

Time-Critical Aspects

• Time constraints:
  ---> ob-chaha1-a and ob-chaha1-b should ideally be executed in the same night
  (or at least the next night).
  
  ---> similar, ob-chaha7-a and ob-chaha7-b should ideally be executed in the same
   night
  (or at least the next night).
  
  All other OBs can be executed independently.
