P70-012: Deducing physical parameters of TDEs through spectroscopic lag studies
P.I.: Panos Charalampopoulos
This is a SoftToO program using ALFOSC (Classification 4h total,
follow-up of 2 TDEs, 6h each )
in Nordic Service or technical nights.
Requested setup:
- Grism #4
- Slit_1.0, Slit_1.3
Observing instructions:
When an observation is triggered, OBs will be made and submitted to the Queue:
- In a sequencer window type cd ~/scripts/70-012/
- Look for the most recent scripts with ls -lrt and execute them
- Remember to update the OBs and send the SoftToO report

ALHj300062 - ALHj300067, ALHj300105 - ALHj300109 |
Both targets showed clear spectral features in Quickspec. The rest of the targets were missed as there were many SoftToOs to observe from other programs as well. The standard star files ALHj300071 & ALHj300072, observed as part of another proposal, can be used for calibration because the setup is the same (Grism 4 and 1.0'' slit). |

Great night with excellent conditions. Low wind, humidity and good seeing.
We got some errors during the first execution of 20250108_too_bd33_spec_1_0 - Please consider
using only the latter execution of the ob (ALIa080217 - ALIa080221) |
