General Description
The aime of this project is to determine the stellar projected rotational
velocity and the surface chemical abundances of a statistically significant number
of hot horizontal branch (HB) stars in the globular cluster NGC~6752. Using
the multiobject capabilities and the resolution of UVES+FLAMES, we can reveal the
presence of anomalous fast HB rotators and perform a detailed study of stellar rotation
as a function of other physical properties (position of the star on the HB, surface
chemical abundances).
In this way, we propose to shed more light on the origin of fast rotation among
HB
stars and, in particular, to clarify any connection with
dynamical or evolutionary effects.
Six stars, standars of stellar rotation are also included in the proposal.

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 ?
