This line_7: is a UV specific problem that requires ST collecting area. A positive line_8: detection will produce a point on the rotation curve far into the galaxy halo, line_9: as well as crude information on the physical conditions of the halo gas. Each line_10: spectrum will also contain information on the gas distribution of our galaxy. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: BEAVER fname: EDWARD inst: UC, SAN DIEGO country: USA ! lname: BURBIDGE fname: E.

Scale from 19 mag and line_2: fnu~1/nu. Expose 14000S H13, 1800S H19, 720S H27.

The lines will be associated with galactic or extragalactic line_3: absorbers at given redshifts. Any residual unidentified lines shortward of line_4: the QSO Ly-ALPHA emission line are candidates for Lyman forest absorption. ! question: 8 section: 1 line_1: This program constitutes a scientific investigation that cannot be considered line_2: viable until 7 of the 10 targets have been observed. None of the data in this line_3: program should be made public until 1 year after the program becomes viable as line_4: a whole. ! question: 9 section: 1 line_1: All GTO/FOS programs; SV/SAO observations of 3C273. Program GTO/FOS 1043 is line_2: related. ! question: 10 section: 1 line_1: The computer facilities and research assistance for this work have been funded line_2: entirely by grants. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: BOHLIN fname: RALPH category: PI inst: SPACE TELESCOPE SCIENCE INSTITUTE addr_1: HOMEWOOD CAMPUS city: BALTIMORE state: MD zip: 21218 country: USA phone: (301) 338-4804 ! ! end of general_form_address records fixed_targets: targnum: 1 name_1: PKS1103-006 descr_1: E,314,H,515,911 pos_1: RA=11H 6M 31.75S +/- 0.3", pos_2: DEC=-0D 52' 53.4" +/- 0.3", pos_3: PLATE-ID=04I7 equinox: 2000 rv_or_z: Z=0.43 fluxnum_1: 1 fluxval_1: V=16.5 ! ! end of fixed targets !
