Target of Opportunity Request Form

Important information
On Tuesday, July 29th, from 06:30 to 08:00 MEST (i.e. Garching time) the email system will undergo maintenance. Altough we do not expect interruption of service, we recommend that you confirm triggers submitted during this period by checking the confirmation mail sent by the system.

Introduction

This page is to trigger OPC-approved Target of Opportunity observations (OPC/TOO) only. Therefore, use this page only if you have an approved program ID.

This form is designed to make sure that we receive the information we need to perform your observations, as opposed to what we guess that the observation you want might be, as it was too often the case in the past.

Please also refer to the Policies for Target of Opportunity Observations

SCIENCE OBS TO BE EXECUTED

First column: exact name of the OBs, as checked in the Repository in the order in which they should ideally be executed. There is no need to repeat the strategy associated to an OB: this should be done in the Phase II REAME file. Second column: approx. duration of the OB.

CALIBRATION REQUIREMENTS

Indicate if your program needs only the Standard Calibrations (as defined in the Phase II instructions). If not, the additional calibration OBs must been submitted during the Phase II.
