Notes : Commissioning Time observations will be carried out by
the comissioning team. Open time allocations will not.
The specific run dates given indicate observing windows,
within which the allocation may be used.
NB: In rare cases, survey photography may still take priority in photometric
conditions with excellent seeing, in accordance with the advice of
the Schmidt Telescope Panel.
The balance of 6dF time is allocated to the 6dF Galaxy
Redshift Survey/Additional Targets
The 6dF Additional Target programs approved for incorporation into the
main 6dF redshift survey are :

Since 6dF will not be offered in service mode (except if commissioning
time was awarded) applicants/associates are required to attend the
telescope to assist with the 6dF run. Following initial training by UKST
staff, they should be available on site for at least
one full day before the start of their run. Observers who are prepared
to stay on beyond the end of their scheduled run may benefit from the
opportunity to complete 6dF observations prevented by weather conditions
during their scheduled slot, subject to approval by the
Astronomer-in-Charge.
Observers may book accommodation at Siding Spring Lodge by sending an
e-mail message to : mdn@mso.anu.edu.au
copied to : rlm@aaocbn.aao.gov.au
and to : cpc@aaocbn.aao.gov.au
Observers are referred to the AAO's home page (www.aao.gov.au) for
additional information.
