TEMPLATE FOR 5 JUNE 2006

-----------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTES FOR OBSERVING
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

There are three targets for this night (5 June 2006):  An eclipse by U Sco
centered on 00:46 UT, an eclipse by CI Aql centered on 04:23 UT, and
Nereid monitoring for the remainder of the night.  Given the eclipse
times, the times of observation *must* go exactly as follows:

	UT 23:00 to UT 03:00	U Sco	I-band 300-s	JDmid=2453892.532
	UT 03:00 to UT 05:20	CI Aql	V-band	60-s	JDmid=2453892.683
	UT 05:20 to UT 10:20	Nereid	V-band 900-s	no eclipse

For each of these three targets, the idea is to sit on them and take 
repeated exposures in the same filter as fast as possible. 

Take the observations through any conditions, as I'll be doing 
differential photometry with respect to nearby stars.  Even a sporatic 
light curve through holes in clouds can return an eclipse time of some 
use.

The finder chart for U Sco and CI Aql can be found from the Downes &
Shara catalog at
http://icarus.stsci.edu/~downes/cvcat/Forms/varcat_query.html Enter
the name of the target (U Sco) in the box at upper left labelled "GCVS
Name", click the "Submit" box on the upper right, then click on the
name on the left.  There is no finder chart for Nereid, so you'll just
have to go by the coordinates given.

I would like the coordinates to be placed slightly off-center (say, by
a tenth of the FOV size) so that the target and comparison stars fall
on the same quadrant, as a measure of convenience.  At the start of
the observations on each target, move to the target, take a focus (if
needed), check the center from the finder chart (so U Sco and CI Aql
does not fall on a bad column or join line), then start the sequence
with the 'MORE' command.  And stop when the time is up.  This program
should be very easy.

NOTES FOR CALIBRATION FIELDS
-----------------------------------------------------------------------

No calibration, the photometry will be all differential with respect to 
nearby stars.

1- Take 11 dome flats for each filter and 11 zeros
