Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
This is a monitoring program we have carried since July 2007. The observations
have been obtained at one month interval during 2 ESO periods. Therefore, this
first set of runs (for P81) in FORS (one run for FORS1, one run for FORS2) should
be observed close to the last week of April.
The object is slightly elongated, please put the slit at the center.
Some of the brightest emission lines might be saturated, this is ok since we are
interested in the continuum.
This are the first pair of OBs for P81 (out of a total of 5 pairs). Since the object
might be evolving, we would like to assess our setup before submitting the remaining
OBs. Therefore, we request access to the data as soon as it is obtained (In previous
observations, data have been uploaded to the ESO ToO's ftp, and then given instructions
on how to retrieve it)
Waiver Requests
Critical Observing Condition Constraints
Time-Critical Aspects
Since this is a monitoring program, please execute the observations during
the last week of April.
Runs 81.D-0402(A) and 81.D-0402(F) are the first pair of observations for this period,
they should ideally be observed less than a week apart.

Is this a Pre-imaging run ?
Pre-imaging Requirements
Source(s) of Pre-imaging
Pre-imaging sources not listed above
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 ?
If you have prepared your finding charts with tools other than FIMS,
do they comply with the specifications on the FORS1 Phase 2 web page ?
