== P3.19 Atmospheric calibration == - **Phase** : 3 - **Status** : Draft - **Category** : Nighttime testing (functionality and operability) (C5) + Nighttime calibration (C6) - **Recurrence** : once at commissioning and then for each LSS observation. - **Duration** : 2 hours **Description** - Atmospheric calibration to remove telluric atmospheric features from the stellar spectrum. **Prerequisites** - Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side. - Atmospheric conditions: AO working conditions. - Bad pixel map, Background or Dark, Flat-field, wavelength calibration. **Procedure** - Observe the spectrum of a featureless (standard) star at a similar airmass to that of the science target. **Templates** - SHARKNIR_lss_cal_RemoveTelluric **Success criteria** - Better than 10% for average residuals from telluric removal. **Notes** - Same as activity 7.4 in AD4 **LBTO support** - AO support **Date performed and by whom**
