Abstract Multicolor photometry and spectroscopic redshifts are available for a complete sample of faint galaxies in the southern cluster Abell 370 at a redshift of z=0.37. Strong evidence has been found for residual star formation in the red cluster galaxies. This may reflect general evolution in the cluster ellipticals, or it could represent the final transition from infalling gas-rich systems to present-day lenticular galaxies. FOC will be used to extend the spectral energy distributions for cluster members into the far-UV providing direct measures of the proportions of young and evolved stars in a carefully selected sample of red members complete to K=17.0. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 8.

Scientific Justification. Multicolor photometry and spectroscopic redshifts are available for a complete sample of faint galaxies in the southern cluster Abell 370 at a redshift of z=0.37. Strong evidence has been found for residual star formation in the red cluster galaxies. This may reflect general evolution in the cluster ellipticals, or it could represent the final transition from infalling gas-rich systems to present-day lenticular galaxies. FOC will be used to extend the spectral energy distributions for cluster members into the far-UV providing direct measures of the proportions of young and evolved stars in a carefully selected sample of red members complete to K=17.0. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3. Description of proposed observations. we aim to obtain a single exposure of each of selected early-type cluster member through the four filters F220W,F275W,F342W,F430W ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 4. Justification of need for HST observations. UV astronomy cannot be performed from ground-based observatories. no UV facilities other than HST are adequate for faint galaxies. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 7. Data reduction and analysis plans. will use IRAF/STSDAS on workstations ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 9. Description of previous HST work. GTO program 1246 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 11.
