Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)

• 6

General Description

• This is a Target of Opportunity/Rapid Response Mode programme to locate/follow
   up short-duration gamma ray bursts. As such these observations are time critical:
   selected OBs should be executed as soon as possible after they are triggered by
   us.
  
  Note: we may need to repeat a given OB to achieve long (>1hr total) execution
   times. We are aware this is only possible for ToOs, not RRMs. Thus we have made
   as many copies of each RRM OB as we are likely to need.

Waiver Requests

• No Waiver Request was submitted

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• none

Time-Critical Aspects

• As a Target of Opportunity/Rapid Response Mode programme these observations
   are time critical: selected OBs should be executed as soon as possible after they
   are triggered by us.
