• 1.68

General Description

• NTT SOFI lond slit low resolution blue and red grism (JH and HK) spectral
   observations are required for our target, which is a very red brown dwarf (Rc-Ks
   = 7.1).
  
  NOTE that we require A0V telluric standards to be taken before and after each set
   of JH & HK spectral observations.
  
  Also, we require Nasmyth halogen lamp flats.
  
  The execution time for this 079.C-0919(A) part is given as 41 minutes over the alloted
   one hour. However, the time allocation for the 079.C-0919(B) part is under used
   by 25 minutes, leaving 6 minutes longer than the alloted time for both parts of
   the proposal. However, the DIT and NDIT's defined for the HK SOFI spectroscopy of
   this target were conservatively chosen for better temporal sky line variation correction
   which may not be optimal, and may therefore be modified at the time of the observations
   by the more experienced NTT support astronomer.

Special Calibration Information

• A0V telluric standards (or as close to A0V as possible) are required be
   taken before and after each set of JH & HHK SOFI spectral observations. Also,
   we require Nasmyth halogen lamp flats.
