Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
Observations of the inner dust disk of 4 Herbig Ae stars, of which 1 is
a UX Orionis variable star. In the first place, we intend to determine the disk
inclination. Second, we will try to derive the spatial extent of the inner rim:
the vertical scale from the more edge-on system (which the UXOR is expected to be),
the radial extent from the less-inclined systems (i.e. the other targets). Three
simultaneous visibilities AND closure phase measurement are needed to meet these
science goals.
Waiver Requests
Critical Observing Condition Constraints
Time-Critical Aspects
Targets HD250550, HD35929, HD37806 and their calibrator stars are observable
throughout the entire P78. HD95881 and its calibrator are only observable during
the last months of P78.
This is indicated in the respective OBs.

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 ?
Did you indicate for each science star OB the corresponding calibrator
star OB (and vice versa) in the 'Instrument Comments' field ?
Did you check that your chosen calibrator is bright enough for the instrument
mode used ?
If you use calibrator stars which are not in the CalVin database, did
you specify their characteristics in the README file and in the OBs ?
