Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This program aims at getting spectra of good to high S/N of M dwarf binaries
and multiples at Z band (995nm)
to measue the magnetic field (via Zeeman broadening in FeH absorption featues) and
to measure vsini and
RV.
The position angle of the binaries / multiples have been computed to our best knowledge,
using archived
AO images for most of the targets. However, some targets show strong orbital motion
(up to 1 deg per
month!). Since it is crucial that both components fall in the slit, please check
whether the
given PA is still appropriate. Otherwise please correct the angle until the binary
components are
well aligned in the slit. Thanks!
Telluric standard stars are not needed. The region covered by this setting is free
of any telluric absorption lines.

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?
Do any OBs include wavelength or flatfield calibrations?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
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?
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?
