How to Propose for NEID time
Targets are separated into groups, if applicable. The groups correspond to targets that you wish to observe in different manners. You might require different priority levels for these groups. If applicable, the same target could be placed into more than one group. Begin each group with a short description. The purpose of this file is to help queue organizers understand the scheduling demands for your program, not to explain your scientific rationale and other details that should go into your proposal form. Don't assume that the TAC will read this file.
The file should list each target as a row of comma-separated values (CSV) with this format:
- TargetName,RA,Dec,magnitude
- TargetName should be a unique, standard, easily-recognized name.
- RA should be either decimal degrees of right ascension or a sexagesimal value in hours, minutes and seconds of right ascension.
- Dec should be either decimal degrees or sexagesimal degrees, minutes and seconds.
- Magnitude should normally be a standard, optical broadband magnitude such as V. Red stars may be described better with a redder filter like SDSS i, or G$_{RP}$. State the filter being used.
- Sexagesimal fields may be separated by either a space or colon (e.g., "DD MM SS.S" or "DD:MM:SS.S"), but be consistent.
Example target list follows below
