General Description

• MXU spectroscopy of low-luminosity intermediate-redshift disk galaxies
   in the FORS Deep Field. 2 MXU setups. MXU slits are aligned with the disks' apparent
   major axes to extract rotation curves. Since the target galaxies are very faint
   (I~22..23), 3 brighter stars (I~20.5) are included in each MXU setup for the through-slit
   acq image.
  
  13 exposures per mask of ~2475 sec each -> 2 x 12.5 = 25 hrs total execution
   time including overhead.
  
  The 26 science OBs are named 
  sciMXU_sublsp45_01n, ..., sciMXU_sublsp45_13n (1st MXU setup, Priority 1)
  sciMXU_sublsm45_01n, ..., sciMXU_sublsm45_13n (2nd MXU setup, Priority 2)
  
  Since we do not have special calibration requirements, no calibration OBs were submitted.
  
  Two finding charts are assigned to each of the two MXU setups:
  081.B-0107A.001.jpg (full FOV of OBs sciMXU_sublsp45_xxn with xx = 01,02,...,13)
   
  081.B-0107A.002.jpg (magnification of OBs sciMXU_sublsp45_xxn)
  081.B-0107A.003.jpg (full FOV of OBs sciMXU_sublsm45_xxn)
  081.B-0107A.004.jpg (magnification of OBs sciMXU_sublsm45_xxn)
  
  Please note:
  We need ~9.5 hrs net integration time per setup, i.e. 13 MXU exposures of 2475sec
   each per setup, to reach our scientific goals. Please make sure that _all_ 13 exposures
   of one set
  are taken before exposures of the other setup are started (the user priority is
   set accordingly).

Special Execution Requirements

• We need 9.5hrs net integration time per setup, i.e. 13 MXU exposures of
   ~2475sec per setup, to reach our scientific goals. Please make sure that _all_ 13
   exposures of one of the two MXU setups are taken before exposures of the other setup
   are started (the user priority is set accordingly).
