General Description

• These ISAAC OBs are aimed at getting a spectrum of a GRB afterglow in
   the J+H band,
  in particular the red part of Ly alpha, or (if the afterglow is too faint) to
  map the SED with narrow-band filter imaging.
  
  It will be triggered only if the redshift of the GRB is larger than about 5, and
  the brightness of the afterglow is brighter than 18th (for spectroscopy) or
  22nd (for imaging) magnitude, respectively.

Waiver Requests

• 081.A-0135C.01.WAV - OBs longer than 1 hour (1:16 execution time) were
   granted.

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• None - these OBs should be executed as soon as possible after the alert.

Time-Critical Aspects

• Since the afterglow will fade rapidly, immediate execution after
  triggering is important.
