General Description

NACO/SDI observations of 5 nearby, Solar-type stars.

=================================================================================================================
All target stars are bright enough to serve as their AO reference.

Three stars are observed using two SDI observation templates. 
Two of the stars are observed using three SDI observation templates.

Each of these templates observes the target at 4 different rotation angles.
==================================================================================================================

During the observations, please check:
1. The inner ~0.1" of the targets should be saturated; please, adjust DIT accordingly.
2. After each template, please, re-center the object in the SDI mask.

====================================================================================================================
BRIGHTEST SOURCES IN THE FOV:
- In each field of view the target star is the brightest object. 
The brightnesses are as follow:
HD 105       V = 7.5 mag    H = 6.2 mag
HD 107146    V = 7.1 mag    H = 5.6 mag
HD 202917    V = 8.7 mag    H = 7.0 mag
HD 209253    V = 6.6 mag    H = 5.4 mag
HD 377       V = 7.6 mag    H = 6.2 mag

Special Calibration Information

CALIBRATION:

We ask for a single SDI twilight flat field exposure - we could not find the corresponding
 template. 
If possible, we ask for a daytime flat for each night an object was observed.

Should this OB be changed, please, contact me: apai@as.arizona.edu

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 ?
