Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
* This programme consists of 6 identical OBs and has the aim of obtaining
UVES spectra
of the detached eclipsing binary V20 in the old open cluster NGC 6791 in order
to
determine the radial velocities of the components of the binary system.
* In "Time-Critical Aspects" I have provided a list of possible observing dates
for
each of the 6 OBs, since there was not enough space in the window for defining
the
OBs. Explanation of how to prioritize exposures is also given.
* Each OB consists of : 1) aquisition
2) 1x4000s exposures
3) an attached ThAr spectrum for accurate WL calib.
For Each OB there is also a list of possible execution dates (Time-Critical Aspects).
Once an OB is excecuted the remaining dates for that OB become invalid.
* Total execution time per OB is 103min. Thus a waiver has been submitted - and
approved.
* To maximize S/N we use 2x2 binning and 50kHz readout
* Finding Chart: All OBs use the same finding chart, since there is only one object
for this programme.
*****************************************************************************************
SHOULD you have any suggestions of other ways to improve the S/N of the observations
please do not hesitate to contact me!! This is a very faint target and we need
the best
flux we can get.

Critical Observing Condition Constraints
Time-Critical Aspects
We provide a list below of suitable observing dates for each of the 6
OBs for this run.
All OBs have the same priority, but once an OB is executed, all possible dates
belonging to
it are "banned".
Each possible observing date is marked by 3 lines starting with S % E, indicating
the first possible starting time, approximate meridian crossing time and the
latest an exposure should end.

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 need secondary guiding, are there suitable objects within 30 arcsec
from your target ?
