General Description
AIM:
This part of the program aims at determining the external portion of the velocity
dispersion profile of the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6388.
Together with run A of the same program, this will allows us to determine the entire
cluster velocity dispersion profile, which is needed to (possibly) confirm the existence
of an intermediate-mass black hole in the centre of the system.
To this purpose, we aim at measuring the radial velocity of about 400 individual
stars with V<17, all over the radial extension of the cluster, particularly sampling
the region between 40 and 200 arcsec from the centre.
The obervations are organised in 4 OBs of less than 1 hour each.

Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed
on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?
If this is a pre-imaging run, did you select PRE-IMAGING for the Observing
Category for each Observing Template ?
Do all your finding charts comply with both the general and instrument-specific
Phase 2 Web Pages ?
If you submitted OBs for standard stars, did you specify the magnitude
and spectral type of all standard stars in the OBs ?
Have you included OBs for any calibrations that you need but which are
not part of the Calibration Plan ?
If you are observing Moving Targets, have you attached suitable ephemeris
files to your OBs?
If you have preferences which OBs should be executed first, did you make
use of the User Priority field in the OBs ?
If this is a run that requires coordinated observations with other facilities,
did you give proper instructions in the Time-Critical Aspects Section ?
Did you specify in your OBs the hour angle range for which your Target
Setup files are valid ?
Did you specify in your OBs the magnitudes of FACBs and Guide Star for
all your fields ?
Are the FACBs and Guide Star in the brightness ranges specified in the
FLAMES manual ?
Did you enter the expected signal to noise in your OBs ?
