The observations were made with the 152 cm telescope, in July 1997. The spectrograph used was Aurelie (see Gillet et al. 1994) with a Thomson 7832 double bar detector, with 2048 photodiodes ($750\times 13~\mu$). The grating used had 300 grooves/mm, blazed at 6000 Å. The original dispersion is 33 Å/mm, with a resolution of 1.3 Å, equivalent to 65 km s^-1 at 6000 Å.

Calibrations were made with a tungsten lamp for flat field and in wavelength by means of a hollow cathod of thorium and argon for the blue and the red and thorium-neon for the near infrared.
