Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This is a simple spectroscopic observation of a relatively bright (V=15.26)
sdB star. To minimise slit losses for this very blue target it would help if the
rotator could be (re-)set to the parallactic angle at the beginning of each of the
three exposures specified in the OB. In order to achieve our science objective,
we require a high (minimum ~160, ideally 200-250 at the central wavelength) S/N
ratio. This should be achievable within the time allocated if the constraints on
the observing conditions are met; the observing constraints may be violated slightly
if this is compensated for by a longer exposure time and the minimum S/N specified
is nevertheless reached.

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 ?
