General Description
This is a short and relatively easy deep mapping programme to look for
faint evolved galaxies in the fields of 2 radio galaxies at z=4.1 and z=5.2. The
Hawk-I data will be used to select the candidate sources based on their near-IR
colours.
Please try to finish one object and one band per object before starting a new band
or a new object. The user priorities reflect this too.
We would like to minimise any problems with cross-talk from bright stars in the
field, as these cross talk closely resembles the faint objects we want to study.
The crosstalk can be minimised by choosing the appropriate bias voltages on the
Hawk-I detectors, and by lowering the readspeed of the detector. Although these
modes are not officially offered during period 83, we would be willing to accept
being a test project to test these modes.

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 ?
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 ?
