For each search, we should have for different follow-up possibilities
available, to be chosen via TOO.
#1 : Low-redshift, no grism needed.
4 orbits in z, spaced as Rachel did
3 orbits in J, spaced as Rachel did
(save 3 J orbits for final ref)
TOTAL = 10 orbits
WORST CASE z=1.3 (usually we do better!)
ds = 0.09
dt = 2.5
dmbcorr = 0.15
d(R-I) = 0.038
==> For a galaxy with a very good photo-z
#2 : Low-redshift, grism needed
4 orbits in z, spaced as Rachel did
3 orbits in J, spaced as Rachel did
(save 3 J for final reference)
7 orbits grism
TOTAL = 17 orbits
Worst case as #1
#3 : High-redshift, no grism needed
8 orbits in z, spaced as Rachel did
3 orbits in J, spaced as Rachel did
(save 3 J for final referenced)
TOTAL = 14 orbits
WORST CASE z=1.5
ds = 0.08
dt = 2.2
dmbcorr = 0.14
d(R-I) = 0.046
===> For a galaxy with a very good photo-z
#4 : High-redshift, grism needed
8 orbits in z, spaced yadda yadda
3 orbits in J
(save 3 J for final reference)
11 orbits grism
TOTAL = 25 orbits
Worst case as in #3.
