Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
All these observations are H band low resolution spectroscopic observations
of T dwarfs.
All position angles for acquisition are centered on the reference and the angle
to get the target into the slit is positive from north to east.
One object, CFBDS025053+162050 is a the faint component of a close binary (3.7")
and needs to be observed in the best part of the seeing we've been allocated (from
0.6" to 0.8"). We thus request to observe this one when the seeing is close to 0.6"
to minimize flux contamination from the main component. Once the target centered
it is best if the reference star is kept out of the slit.
We have an accepted target change from phase 1. here are the new targets:

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 submitted OBs for standard stars, did you use the provided StandardStar
templates ?
If you are using a specific offset pattern or position angle, did you
check carefully the definition in the manual ?
If you are doing spectroscopy, did you draw the slit on the Finding Charts
?
Did you enter the magnitude of the brightest star in the field-of-view
in the 'Instrument Comments' field of each OB ?
If you use the MoveToPixel acquisition, have you given clear instructions
on the FC and in the OB comment section as to how the field should be centered ?
