General Description
The scientific goal is to compare the Li abundance in stars of the same
Teff above and below the turn-off of the cluster. Since the stars below the TO are
much fainter we keep the fiber assigned to the same set of 80 stars for all the
15 OBs to reach the desired S/N ratio. There are 5 fiber configuration files. In
each, 16 MEDUSA fibers are assigned to subgiant stars (i.e. above the turn-off).
Each configuration has to be used for 3 different OBs. Remaining fibers are assigned
to sky positions. At the end of the sequence, one has 80 dwarfs and 80 subgiants
observed with comparable signal-to-noise. UVES fibers are assigned to RGB stars,
4 are always on the same stars at the base of the RGB, 2 are on stars which span
a range in RGB luminosity and 2 always to the sky.
The priorities are assigned in such a way that each fiber configuration should complete
the set of 3 OBs before starting the next fiber configuration.
Spectrograph configuration is the same for all OBs.

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 specify in your OBs the hour angle range for which your Target
Setup files are valid ?
Did you specify in your OBs the magnitudes of FACBs and Guide Star for
all your fields ?
Are the FACBs and Guide Star in the brightness ranges specified in the
FLAMES manual ?
Did you enter the expected signal to noise in your OBs ?
