P69-501: Establishing the accuracy of asteroseismic mass, radius, and age estimates of giant stars using
eclipsing binaries
P.I.: Karsten Brogaard
This is a Monitoring program using FIES.
Instrument setup
Afternoon instructions
- Run afternoon calibrations: fies-calibs -fib 4
Observing instructions
- On the Queue page, make sure the OB-generated observing script is written to disk, or else 'compile'
- Go to directory: cd ~/obs/scripts/69-501/ and do ls -lrt
- Start the requested OB generated script

Target observed successfully with clear skies. We had to CTRL-C the program during acquisition
multiple times because the telescope for unknown reasons moved to the wrong star when
placing the target on the fiber. Hence the many entries below! |

Clear skies, subarcsec seeing. The program had been marked as failed during the afternoon, however there was no problem observing it during the night |

There was calima, but the sky was clear. The seeing was around 2 arcsec.
First try had an error during the EasyThAr part, but as it was the first thing that happened during the
OB (after guiding and acquisition) we just restarted the OB and everything went smooth from there. |

Setting the observation as failed as it had to be stopped halfway because the telescope was shut
down due to high humidity. Nonetheless, the data of the 30min exposure may still be worth looking at. |

The observation was done through thin clouds, which by the end of the observation became denser,
causing the guide star to be lost during the last few minutes of the exposure, ending the observation a bit
sooner. Although I have set the observation as complete, please check if the data is of use.
Several ctrl c's as there were several attempts to carry out the observation thwarted by the clouds. |
