Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
FLAMES-UVES/GIRAFFE spectroscopy in two open clusters, Coma (Melotte 111)
and IC 2602.
In both clusters, two fields are chosen which are to be observed twice, one field
in IC2602 should be observed three times. Fibre allocations differ between the two
(or three) observations in each field. The strategy is to get UVES and GIRAFFE spectra
in up to 16 targets per field (with two exposures, the 8 UVES fibres being allocated
to different targets which are observed with GIRAFFE in the second exposure).
Additional GIRAFFE fibres are allocated to other targets in the field.
Preferably, observations in the same field should be executed after each other during
the same night.
The OBs have the following name convention:
Coma_2_1 means:
Observation in Coma, second field, first exposure.
Coma_2_1 and Coma_2_2 should be executed close to each other (first and second exposure
in the second Coma field).
The allocations are valid from April 01, 2006 through October 01, 2006.

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 ?
Did you specify in your OBs the hour angle range for which your Target
Setup files are valid ?
Did you specify in your OBs the magnitudes of FACBs and Guide Star for
all your fields ?
Are the FACBs and Guide Star in the brightness ranges specified in the
FLAMES manual ?
Did you enter the expected signal to noise in your OBs ?
