SCIENCE OBSERVATIONS
UT 0012 - Spec Std: L745a - Gm11/13/16 all with 1 arcsec slit (15m)
UT: 0025 - Phot Std: RU152 - UBVRi (7m)
UT: 0028 - OGLE-2012-SN-006 - UBVRI (35m)
UT: 0104 - PSNJ06161835-2122329 - 5 x 10s in R to check astrometry (10m)
UT: 0126 - PSNJ06161835-2122329 - spectra Gm13 1 arcsec slit (25m)
SNID - classification possibly a Type II?
UT: 0201 - LSQ13fn - 2x30mins in each of Gm13 and Gm16 (2hr 15m)
UT: 0300 - cirrus cloud building from south. probably photometric till this point - not after.
UT: 0400 - cirrus continues to build - so decided to skip the Photo std obs.
UT: 0420 - Spec Std: L745a - Gm11/13/16 all with 1 arcsec slit (increased exp time to 240s) (25m)
UT: 0445 PSN J10011200 0019423 - followup - Gm11 / Gm16 (3h 10m)
(SNID on this confirms a SN Ia at epoch of ~20)
UT: 0630 - cirrus cloud cleared - looks photometric again. Seeing ~0.7 arcsec
UT: 0800 - PSNJ12393328+1525520 - classification Gm13 (15m)
SNID - possibly a Type II - but featureless.
UT: 0820 - SSS130221:133330-194457 - classification Gm13 (40m)
SNID - looks like this is an AGN
UT: 0855 - Phot Std: PG1323 UBVRi (5m)
UT: 0905 - Spec Std: EG274 gm11 gm13 gm16 (15m)
