MUSE GTOdefinition process Lyon, 21 octobre 2008 Toulouse, 18 mars 2009 MUSE will operate in seeing-limited mode the first year of GTO
GTO guideline Lyon, 21 octobre 2008 Toulouse, 18 mars 2009 • GTO = 250 nights – maximum 20 per semester • Used in a collaborative effort on a limited number of projects • Does not exclude dedicated projects using a small fraction of GTO • Inputs phase on-going • Merging/priorities at next ST meeting (Lyon, 4-5 June)
