abstract:

    line_1:        The central object of NGC 3603 has spectroscopic characteristics very
    line_2:        similar to R136a. In this program HRS G140L spectra will be obtained of the
    line_3:        two UV brightest components of the central object. The goal is to determine
    line_4:        the nature of the central objects of giant H II regions.

  question:        3
    section:       1
    line_1:        HRS G140L spectra will be obtained of the two UV brightest components to
    line_2:        the central object. An early acquisition image will be required. This image
    line_3:        will be used to identify the positions of the two UV brightest components. The
    line_4:        data (exposures 1-6) should be obtained in Cycle 2 (19-30 months).

!

  question:        4
    section:       1
    line_1:        This program requires ST sub arc second imagery and its UV spectroscopic
    line_2:        capabilities.

!

  question:        7
    section:       1
    line_1:        Data will be reduced in Madison using the MADRAF VAX. HRS team software
    line_2:        will be available.

!

  question:        10
    section:       1
    line_1:        The data reduction facility.

!

  question:        12
    section:       1
    line_1:        The total requested time of 120 min (2 hrs) assumes 100 min of scanning time
    line_2:        and 20 min of target acquisition overhead.

!

  question:        13
    section:       1
    line_1:        HRS G140L spectra will be obtained of the two UV brightest components of the
    line_2:        central object of NGC 3603. The goal is to gain new insights about the central
    line_3:        stars of giant H II regions.
