General Description

NIR NB multi-wavelength imaging of Milky Way nuclear star cluster in order
 to examine its structure, measure extinction, classify the stellar population, and
 search for young stars.

Please note the large offset (670 W, 380 N) required in order to obtain a good sky
 backgroudn estimate on an empty field.

There are a few stars with K-magnitudes brighter than 8. Please see granted waiver
 request.

For OBs with user priority higher than 10, the user priority is indicated in the
 "user comments" field.

Waiver Requests

Waiver Request: 081.B-0099B.01

Please be informed that your waiver request to observe ISAAC
fields that contain stars brighter than the allowed limit was 
granted. However, please note that the DIT should not exceed 5s.
Also note the waiver is granted under the restrictions that
the OBs must be executed at the end of the night or just before an 
instrument change, in order to avoid any effect on subsequent 
ISAAC observations.

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

Seeing should be below 0.6" in order to minimize source confusion in the
 dense cluster
