Notes. The main targeted species and features with the chosen filters are given in the first and third column. (1)The wavelength of the transition or pivot wavelength of the filter for NIRCam broad band filters. (2)Continuum filter. (3)B: Bar (on-target observations) and north of the Bar. (4)S/R: minimum signal-to-noise ratio measured at the template positions (HII, atomic and molecular regions) in the Bar and covered by the NIRSpec field. (5)M43 (NGC 1982): NIRCam parallel observations. (6)This filter contains an H2 line at 3.23 µm but is largely dominated by the 3.3 µm AIB. (7)A “×” indicates that the observation has failed because of FGS loss.
