Footnotes
The format for support codes is ....
F						First night support will be provided.
Y						Full support will be provided.
N						No support will be provided at the telescope. The contact astronomer is provided in parentheses.
S						Service mode or Director's time observations which will be carried out by AAO astronomers.
A						An AAO astronomer is on the proposal and will provide their own support.
When more than one support astronomers initials appear, the first named astronomer is always the principal contact.
!						Program changes from previous schedule.
A						VPH must be delivered to site one month before run. Backup program is A033
B						To be used for UHRF service if aluminizing is completed.
C						Mount detector three days in advance and allow dark current and walls to fade.
D						To be used for payback of any IRIS2 program affected by >3hrs combined override from A002+A021, else ATAC Service
N						Runs require Nod and Shuffle
Over-ride Programs: see notes for conditions
6x3hrs						A002 Price,SCHMIDT,Axelrod	IRIS2	S
3hrs+5x2hrs						A021 Palazzi, TINNEY, Pian, Nicastro, Masetti et al	RGO,SPIRAL,IRIS2,UCLES	S

Schedule Notes
General Notes

Dates : Australian public holidays are indicated as shaded week-days.. Dark, Grey and Bright time is indicated by the 'D/G/B' column.

NB: Important information for some proposals is given in the footnotes at the base of the schedule.

! : Exclamation marks indicate changes from the previous version of the schedule.

Proposal : Likely observers names are indicated in upper case.

Support

The initials indicate which member of AAO staff is assigned to support each program

If the astronomer's name appears in parentheses then is not expected the astronomer will be present at the telescope, though the astronomer will be responsible for any other support required.
In the case of 2dF, two support astronomers will often be listed. The FIRST name given is that of the primary support astronomer. The primary support astronomer should be the principal contact for all matter relating to this proposal, and is responsible for coordinating the provision of position files etc. The primary support astronomer is responsible for co-ordinating service observing.
Support astronomers may be contacted at Email@aaoepp.aao.gov.au, where Email is the e-mail username in the following table.

	Email	Name		Email	Name
BJB	bjb	Brian Boyle	LK	lkedzior	Lucyna Kedziora-Chudczer
CGT	cgt	Chris Tinney	RAS	ras	Ray Stathakis
FGW	fgw	Fred Watson	RDC	rdc	Russell Cannon
EAC	ecorbett	Elizabeth Corbett	SMC	scroom	Scott Croom
SDR	sdr	Stuart Ryder	TJB	tjb	Terry Bridges
JBH	jbh	Joss Hawthorn	GFL	gfl	Geraint Lewis

Service & 2dF Observing

PATT will not usually pay T&S for proposals from UK astronomers allocated only one night, or UK astronomers allocated time on 2dF. It is therefore assumed that such awards will be carried out in service mode by the nominated support astronomer. If proposers are able to travel to the telescope using other funding, they should inform the relevant support astronomer and the Scheduler (sched@aaoepp.aao.gov.au) as soon as possible.

ATAC programs are required to send at least one, and not more than two, observers for their 2dF runs. PIs should inform the AAO through the usual travel channels of the proposed observers well in advance of their runs.

Half-nights, Quarter-nights etc.

Such nights are defined by appropriate fraction of the time between evening and morning astronomical twilight.

Over-ride Programs

Standard over-ride conditions (http://www.aao.gov.au/local/www/sll/applications/override.html) apply. Additional conditions include;

A002 – 6x3hrs over-ride, with the following constraints;

1. The over-ride can only be invoked for IRIS2.

2. Any single program can be over-ridden for a total of 3x1hr or 2x1.5hr per GRB.

3. This program has priority over A021

A021 – 1x3hrs (ToO) + 5x2hrs over-ride awarded with the following constraints;

The over-ride may be invoked only for spectroscopy on the following AAT facilities; RGO Spectrograph, Spiral B, UCLES & IRIS2 (Spectroscopic only).
In the event that A021 is triggered immediately subsequent to A002, such that any observing program loses more than 3 hours total to overrides, best efforts will be made to pay back the affected programs on the night of 31 July 2002.
