General Description

• - This is a simple imaging run of the debris disk star HD130819 in the
   Q band only, using Q2 filter.
  - The finding chart shows a K-band (2 MASS) FOV where to find our object. Note that
   there is another star in the filed, bright in K and possibly in N, which should
   not be confused with the science target.
  - HD130819 is K~4.3 and and Q~0.7 Jy

Waiver Requests

• - We have submitted on 05/08/09 a waiver for the addition of the target
   HD130819 in the Q band
  The waiver was accepted on the same date.
  The waiver was initially given so that the OB is part of the run(D).
  Because of view modifications in the choice of submitted targets, run(D) is not
   submitted anymore and HD130819 has been placed in run(F), which initial target HD35650
   is not observed anymore
  
  - Futhermore, we had an accepted waiver request 384.C-1115F.01.WAV for OB longer
   than one hour

Critical Observing Condition Constraints

• For this imaging run, we necessitate high angular resolution:
  1) Thus we need to be close to diffracion-limit, which occurs with a seeing of 1"
   in the optical.
  2) Since we image faint structure, we necessitate optimal atmospheric conditions
   (photometric) in order to have minimum flux losses.

Time-Critical Aspects

• - Since we necessitate to be close to the diffraction limit, we requested
   observations at low airmass. We would like to have the observations within 1.1 airmass
   at periods indicated in Time intervals.
  
  It is important that this time-critical aspect can be respected.

Special Calibration Information

• - For HD130819, we request the observation of the standard star HD123123,
   part of the calibration plan (List of 81 stars from Cohen et al.), immediately BEFORE
   the science OB. We did not submit a specific calibration OB since this is part of
   the calibration plan. Brightness is Q~5.4 Jy.
  
  - Furthermore, we request the observation of the reference star HD138547 (NOT part
   of the CP) immediatley AFTER the science OB. Brightness is Q~5.8 Jy. We submitted
   a specific calibration OB for HD138547.
