In case of a ToO request:
What am I required to do?
The NOT-OPC has given an override status to the FRB rapid response
program. Time allocated to this programme is maximum 2 hours per
for the first night "hard" ToO and Follow-up soft ToO
during Nordic service or Technical nights for two targets,
altogether 14 hours of telescope time.
Any "Nordic" observer at the NOT must be willing to carry out the observations
for the "Hard" ToO.
Authority to interrupt ongoing integrations is approved by the OPC
(See also
Rules for Target-Of-Opportunity programmes).
The observer will be acknowledged in any paper based on these observations
and be offered co-authorship of resulting papers.
What information will I get?
The FRB team will send an email to the observer with full instructions on what
to observe and
how to carry out the observations. It will consist of:
- The FRB coordinates and an error radius + finding charts.
- When the observations should be performed.
- What kind of observations should be carried out.
