Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)

• 23h58m54s

General Description

• A deep narrow-band imaging of a blank field to try to detect
  faint Lyman continua (ionizing radiation) from High-z galaxies.
  We only use the OII+44 filter and point to just one field.
  We request one OB to be taken under photometric condition
  for reliable calibration, and for other OBs we accept
  clear condition.
  As it is described in the FORS User Manual, standard stars
  should be taken after the execution of science narrow-band
  imagings. In addition to these standard star data in FORS
  calibration plan, we add one OB for a standard star LTT4816.
  That OB (CAL_STD) should be executed just after the execution of
  
  PHOT_Lymancont.

Waiver Requests

• No Waiver Request was submitted

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• We request two OBs (PHOT_Lymancont and CAL_STD) to be taken under
  photometric condition. For other OBs (OB_Lymancont*)
  we accept clear or better conditions.
  Because target objects are very faint, we need
  dark night obs. (lunar illumination less than or equal to
  0.3).

Time-Critical Aspects

• none

Special Execution Requirements

• We request to run "CAL_STD" OB just after the execution of "PHOT_Lymancont",
  for reliable flux calibration.

Special Calibration Information

• As it is described in the FORS User Manual, standard stars
  should be taken after the execution of science narrow-band
  imagings. Because standard star observations in ESO calibration
  plan might not be executed just before or after our OBs,
  we add a "CAL_STD" OB which should be executed just
  after "PHOT_Lymancont" OB to confirm the reliablity of
  flux calibration.
