Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
We try to image gas emission lines from an edge-on circumstellar disk.
The center of the ARGUS array will be located on the disk just 3.1 arcsec outside
the primary star, which is _very_ bright (V=3.86; see proposal for cartoon). With
the 1:1.66 lens, the ARGUS width is 4.2 arcsec, so the distance between the star
and the ARGUS edge should be 1 arcsec.
The guide star we picked is fairly close to the center, as we are not interested
in targets outside the ARGUS array.
We have placed the ARGUS sky fibers on fixed coordinates for all OBs, which correspond
to empty sky except in two cases, which are put on background stars with B = 10
and 12 mag.
The four OBs of this run correspond to two positions, one on each side of the disk.
Each position is covered by two OBs, which have ARGUS position angles differing
by 180 degrees.
All coordinates come from UCAC2 and have been computed for epoch 2009.0 (equinox
J2000) taking into account proper motion, and should be good to 0.1 arcsec.

Do all your OBs comply with the instrument-specific requirements listed
on the instrument-specific Phase 2 web page ?
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 ?
