For this purpose exposures line_3: have to be taken with different ST roll angles, spaced as closely as possible line_4: in time. line_8: the rolled exposure can only be taken one orbit after the unrolled exposure. line_9: This time line should allow the determination of the direction of the rotation line_10: and of the pole axis, plus a confirmation of the potometric rotation period. line_11: One of the priority 1 objects shall be observed during cycle 1. ! question: 4 section: 1 line_1: The FOC at f/96 provides the required resolution. ! question: 5 section: 1 line_1: Asteroids have to be observed close to opposition. The scheduling of the line_2: observations is therefore closely tied to the ST launch date and to the line_3: availability of the moving target acquisition mode. We expect to work closely line_4: with the schedulers at the ST ScI. ! question: 7 section: 1 line_1: Quick-look data analysis will be carried out at the STScI immediately following line_2: the observations. line_4: Final data analysis will be carried out at the European Coordinating Facility, line_5: and at the computer installations of the home institutions of the other line_6: proposers. ! question: 10 section: 1 line_1: Our institutions will supply the following resources: line_3: Salary, travel, data analysis facilities, research support, administrative line_4: support, office space. ! question: 13 section: 1 line_1: The purpose of this investigation is to determine physical properties of line_2: selected asteroids: diameters, shapes, surface structure, spin axis line_3: orientation, rotation, and possible binary nature. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: ALBRECHT fname: RUDOLF category: PI inst: ST-ECF addr_1: ESO addr_2: KARL SCHWARZSCHILD STR. 2 addr_3: D-8046 city: GARCHING/MUNICH country: GERMANY, WEST phone: 49-89-320-06-287 telex: 52828222 EOD ! ! end of general_form_address records !
