Notes. From left to right, column names indicate: the pointing field name; the field center coordinates; observing date and starting time of the scientific exposure; the exposure time in seconds; the starting airmass; the average DIMM seeing during the exposure in arcsec; the ESO OB fulfillment grades (a full description is reported in the notes below); the number of slits/observed objects per mask. For each field, the mask design remained identical in each OB. The total number of slits (83) is reported in the last row of the table. (⋆)ESO OB fulfillment Grades: (A) Fully within constraints – OB completed; (B) Mostly within constraints, some constraint is 10% violated – OB completed; (C) Out of constraints – OB must be repeated:

(a)

airmass out of constraints – OB repeated;

(b)

at 02:57 seeing increased to > 1.0” during execution – OB aborted.

(c)

Although classified as completed, the OB did not have visible stellar continua, and was therefore discarded and not reduced.
