Estimated Total Execution Time (hours, including overheads)
General Description
We aim to obtain the spectra for a large sample of stars in the sigma_Ori
region to derive the mass loss rate from the optical forbidden lines.
Two GIRAFFE set-ups are used, namely, HR13 and HR15N.
Our sample includes about 25 objects in the mass interval 0.1-0.05 Msun with I magnitudes
< 17.
A few fibres will be allocated to early type stars to be used for telluric correction.
Two fields are requested to cover the region.
2 OBs for field are needed with the setup HR15 (4 OBs in total)
4 OBs on the field Giraffe1 are needed with HR13 setup
3 OBs on the field Giraffe3 are needed with HR13 setup
FOR A TOTAL OF 11 OBs

Critical Observing Condition Constraints
The OBs:
Giraffe3-15-1-P84
Giraffe3-15-2-P84
Giraffe3-13-1-P84
Giraffe3-13-2-P84
Giraffe1-13-1-P84
Giraffe1-13-2-P84
Giraffe1-15-1-P84
Giraffe1-15-2-P84
have higher priority ('1').
The OBs:
Giraffe3-13-3-P84
Giraffe1-13-3-P84
Giraffe1-13-4-P84
have priority '2'
Please, finish all priority '1' OBs before moving to the priority '2' OBs.
Time-Critical Aspects
Special Execution Requirements
Special Calibration Information
ToO Information
ToO Activators List
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 ?
