General Description

We plan to obtain spectropolarimetry of SN2006aj. The target should be
 around magnitude V=20 and should be easily visible in the acquisition images.

Waiver Requests

Waiver request for having 01:22 long OBs was submitted on 15.09.

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

The OBs can be executed under not very stringent constraints (THN, seeing
 1.2, FLI<=0.5).

Time-Critical Aspects

Observations should be executed as soon as possible.

Note that we have submitted two OBs for spectropolarimetry. Ideally they should
 be executed
one right after the other, which would also save some acquisition time.
If this is not possible, execution on two different nights (as close in time as
 possible) is
also acceptable.

Special Execution Requirements

Special Calibration Information

Note that we have supplied a special OB to observe a specphot standard
 star with the
polarization optics inserted and only one HWP angle. We have chosen LTT2415, which
 has the right spectrum and the appropriate coordinates to be observed towards the
 end of the night.
It would be preferable to have it observed right after the SN, but obsrevations
 during morning twilight are also acceptable (provided the sky is still dark).
