General Description

• A spectroscopic observation of AB Dor B. One exposure is taken without
   the N2O gas cell, followed by a dithering sequence with the cell. The telluric standard
   OB should preferrably be executed directly after the science OB. For a telluric
   star, we choose Hip 27534, a B6 star. The SNR should be higher than 100 (this has
   been confirmed in the CRIRES ETC).
  
  Both the components of AB Dor B (they can be distinguished in the second finding
   chart) should be placed within the slit. Due to the coarse pixel scale of CRIRES,
   we expect that this will be difficult to distinguish during operations. However,
   from our knowledge of the orbit we beleive that the expected P.A. is sufficiently
   well known, and will change sufficiently little during September, that the quoted
   P.A. of 285 degrees should work in any case (as long as the observations are indeed
   carried out in September).

Do the README file and the instrument comments of the telluric stars
 OBs include the required S/N/pixel of the spectrum of the telluric star, its spectral
 type and allowed spectral range?

• YES

Do any OBs include wavelength or flatfield calibrations?

• NO

If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
 files to your OBs?

• N/A

If the slit viewer guide star is different from the target, are the RA
 and DEC offsets accurate to within 0.05 arcsec and do they take into account the
 relative proper motion between the two objects?

• N/A

If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first for objects
 at similar RA, did you make use of the User Priority field in the OBs?

• N/A
