OF ASTRONOMY ! end of coverpage abstract: line_1: The M31 spectra, taken with the slit along the major axis, will total 2 line_2: hours and will produce enough counts to get both the rotation curve and line_3: the velocity dispersion as a function of position along the slit, with line_4: 1-pixel resolution at the center and resolution degraded to several line_5: pixels farther out. The M32 spectra will also total 2 hours and will line_6: give a high-resolution rotation curve along the major axis. line_7: (The slit is probably too wide to get the velocity dispersion.) line_8: The NGC205 spectrum will get the rotation of the sharp nucleus. line_10: This program can be done only after the spherical aberration is line_11: corrected. line_13: Parallel exposures with the PC will be used to derive line_14: color-magnitude arrays of two M31 globular clusters and an outer field line_15: in NGC 205. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: KING fname: IVAN title: PROF. mi: R. inst: UNIV.

This cannot be line_2: achieved in the present condition of the optics/ ! question: 5 section: 0 line_1: Exposure times are based on known surface brightnesses and line_2: calculations of counts per pixel. ! question: 6 section: 1 line_1: Note that all FOC exposures have parallel WFC exposures (so that line_2: the true efficiency of HST usage is much higher than indicated by line_3: the percentage on the cover page). ! question: 6 section: 2 line_1: It is assumed that PSF's will be available without the need to add line_2: observations to this program to secure them. (Yes, PSF's will line_3: still be needed, on account of the diffraction pattern.) ! question: 7 section: 0 line_1: At Berkeley we have a VMS cluster and a Sun cluster. I have a line_2: Microvax II GPX and a Sun IPC with a gigabyte disk. For software line_3: we have been using Vista, DAOPHOT, and IRAF/STSDAS. Although it is line_4: an unhappy fact that no one has yet arrived at the ideal method of line_5: doing stellar photometry on HST images, I am doing at least as well line_6: as anyone else and am in contact with most of those who are making line_7: efforts in this direction. line_9: My collaborators on the FOC IDT have access to all the resources of line_10: the Institute in general, and of the FOC group in particular. line_11: Crane has all sorts of resources at ESO. ! question: 9 section: 1 line_1: SAO-3121, MORPHOLOGY OF FAINT GALAXIES - PART II line_2: GTO-1277, IMAGING OF M31-GROUP GALAXIES line_3: GTO-1278, SPECTROSCOPY OF THE CENTERS OF M31, M32, AND NGC 205 line_4: GTO-1279, STRUCTURE OF GLOBULAR CLUSTERS line_5: GTO-1280, COLLAPSED CORES OF GLOBULAR CLUSTERS line_6: GTO-1281, THE FAINT POPULATION IN BAADE'S WINDOW line_7: GTO-1282, IMAGING OF HIGH-REDSHIFT FIELD GALAXIES AND CLUSTERS line_8: GTO-3217, (continuation of 1280) line_9: GTO-3218, (continuation of 1279) line_10: GTO-3219, (continuation of 1277) line_11: GTO-3325, (continuation of 1279, 3218) line_12: 1277 is closely related to this program. ! question: 9 section: 2 line_1: 3121 produced a report that I am told was quite useful to the Cycle line_2: 1 Re-TAC, and also the publication below. line_4: Otherwise all I have gotten up to now is a pair of exposures on the line_5: center of Omega Centauri, which are in the early stages of line_6: reduction; the center of M32 and of the collapsed-core line_7: globular cluster NGC7099, also under reduction. line_9: In Cycle 1 I have put all of 1281 and all of the 1279 exposures on line_10: NGC6624. ! question: 9 section: 3 line_1: "The Current Ability of HST to Reveal Morphological Structure in line_2: Medium-Redshift Galaxies", King, I.R., et al.
