General Description
We seek long slit, medium resolution, high S/N, H and K band ISAAC spectroscopy
of young, massive stars within G23.96 (UCHII region) and W31 (giant HII region).
Two finding charts are provided for each OB, the first covering the full ISAAC field
and acquisition object (marked with a solid line), the second additionally marking
the slit position and secondary targets (marked with a dashed line), where appropriate.
Charts are for the K-band from 2MASS (G23.96, 2.5x2.5 arcmin) and CTIO/OSIRIS (W31,
1.8x1.8 arcmin).
Program may be executed in poor conditions (1.5 arcsec seeing at V, thin cirrus).
Telluric Solar-type standard stars have not been specified, but should be observed
close in airmass to the appropriate target with an identical configuration.

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 submitted OBs for standard stars, did you use the provided StandardStar
templates ?
If you are using a specific offset pattern or position angle, did you
check carefully the definition in the manual ?
If you are doing spectroscopy, did you draw the slit on the Finding Charts
?
Did you enter the magnitude of the brightest star in the field-of-view
in the 'Instrument Comments' field of each OB ?
If you use the MoveToPixel acquisition, have you given clear instructions
on the FC and in the OB comment section as to how the field should be centered ?
