UKIRT SERVICE

Every semester PATT allocates about 9 nights of its time to the UKIRT
Service Programme. Applications for observing (including infrequent
monitoring, targets of opportunity, pilot or feasibility studies,
completion of PATT-approved programmes, and self-contained science
programmes) requiring 3 hours or less of telescope time (including
overheads) should be sent to the Service Programme.
