4.6 Disk: Jets investigated with long-slit spectra

  • Phase : 4
  • Status : Draft
  • Category : Science verification / Early science (C8)
  • Recurrence : once after the completion of nighttime testing and performance check
  • Duration : 0.5 night(s)

Description

  • Disk: Jets investigated with long-slit spectra

Prerequisites

  • Authorize SHARK-NIR on the SX side.
  • Atmospheric conditions: CLEAR
  • Bad pixel map, Background or Dark, Flat-field, distortion map
  • Cloud Cover : no clouds
  • Astronomical Seeing : 0.8" or better
  • Sky Background : Any
  • Water Vapor : low
  • Timing Windows : no major limitation as the observation will be done in filed stabilized mode
  • Observing Targets : TBD (same than in Section 4.10)
  • Observing Filters : LSS observing mode, no filter
  • Detector Mode, DIT: according to the target brightness
  • Daytime Calibration Data required: dark/background, flat
  • Nighttime Calibration Data required: none

Procedure

  • We observe for more than 1 hour the star with the LSS observing mode.
  • We alternate the position of the slits from the position of the jet to outside the companion position to be able to create a library of images to be used to subtract the speckles.
  • An observation of the star without a coronagraphic mask is also requested to allow a proper flux calibration.
  • Also, we need observation of a standard star to properly reduce the telluric lines.
  • The observation is performed in field stabilized mode.
