Ford SPACE TELESCOPE SCIENCE INST USA (301) 338-4803 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7. Abstract Narrow band [O III] 5007A, nearby offband, and UV continuum PC images will be used to resolve the narrow and broad line regions. These data will test the ability to resolve the narrow regions of Seyfert 1 galaxies in the vicinity of a bright unresolved nucleus. Small aperture FOS spectra of the nucleus will be used to determine how well the emission from the broad line region can be separated from the narrow line region given the degraded spatial resolution. The spectra will be compared to published ground-based (optical) and IUE (ultraviolet) spectrophhotometry of the nucleus. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8.
