P68-012: Probing the strongly variable inner surroundings of UX Orionis stars

PI: A. A. Djupvik

Daytime calibrations:

fies.fies-calibs -fib 1 in the evening before the observations.

ToO and SoftToO triggers

Observing mode: FIES fiber 1 + short ALFOSC/StanCam V exposure

The OB generator will be used to request all observations.

For the observer:

Go to the directory
  cd ~/scripts/68-012
List the available scripts
  ls -lrt
and execute the OB generated scripts for the appropriate date.

Remember to fill in the tracking reports of either ToO or SoftToO observations.

The photometry was done after the FIES spectrum as requested, but we had to handle a water leak alarm between the two observations, so they were separated with about 5 minutes. Observed

68-012 2024-02-17 00:00 SoftToO BFOri FIHb170134 Wind speed & direction prevented successful observation of requested targets. Data might still be of use but no time will be charged Failed

68-012 2024-03-10 00:26 SoftToO CQTau ALHc100123, FIHc100095 - FIHc100095 Target was observed in clear skies with sub arcsecond seeing. Target was observed with ALFOSC just before FIES as requested. Observed
68-012 2024-03-14 00:27 SoftToO CQTau FIHc140001 - FIHc140001, ALHc140133 Clear skies and a seeing of around 0.5 arcsec. The first time we tried to do the alfosc image it did not guide properly, so ignore the - ALHc140132 file. The fies spectrum and the alfosc image was right after one another. Observed
68-012 2024-03-17 00:26 SoftToO BFOri FIHc170094 - FIHc170094, ALHc170061 - ALHc170061 Target observed with clear skies and seeing around 1 arcsec. Observed
