Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)

• 12:32:59

General Description

• Photometry and spectroscopy of moving target (check the ephemeris and
   ADD MOTION VELOCITY).  Each science goal is given with a calibrator which must be
   performed just after the science OB at the same airmass. We inform that we request
   simultaneous observations between the FORS (176.C-0036(N)), ISAAC (178.C-0036(O))
   and SINFONI (178.C-0036(K)) runs for each object. Simultaneous is acceptable within
   a slot (see Time-Critical Aspects). The observation with FORS can confirm the good
   ephemeris of the science target, which is, in general, in the center of FOV. For
   each object we have one photometric and one spectroscopic observation (with respectively
   one photometric and one or several spectroscopic OBs for calibration) in the case
   of FORS and ISAAC runs. For SINFONI (176.C-0036(JK)), we have 1 spectroscopic OB
   for each science target (with a choice of calibrators OBs). Each analog star can
   be used after the observation of each target. We request to the astronomer to choose
   the calibrator with the nearest airmass. The objects, in general too faint, are
   not visible after the pre-acquisition.

Waiver Requests

• No Waiver Request was submitted

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• Observe at the lowest airmass (look the constraint set)

Time-Critical Aspects

• The objects must be observed at small airmass between may 11 and 15, june
   5 and 11 and july 3 and 8 (only available period with UT1 (ISAAC), UT2(FORS1) and
   UT4(SINFONI) simultaneously).
  
  Observations cannot be executed for the following targets on the following dates
   (because of too bright targets in the FOV).

Special Execution Requirements

• We require simultaneous FORS, ISAAC and SINFONI observations. Particularly,
   we require to have similar airmass between our science target and the calibration
   target. We give one or several analog stars. Each solar analog can be used after
   the observation of each target. We request to the astronomer to choose the calibrator
   with the nearest airmass.
