L. Trafton/HRS line_3: will obtain a similar exposure of Io at the other orbital elongation. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: CALDWELL fname: JOHN mi: J. inst: YORK UNIVERSITY country: CANADA ! ! end of general_form_proposers block general_form_text: question: 3 section: 1 line_1: Additional exposures will be made in latter cycles. ! question: 4 section: 1 line_1: ST is required to do spectroscopy below 3000 A, where SO_2 has strong features. line_2: ST will improve significantly upon the S/N and spectral resolution achieved by line_3: previous satellite UV studies. ! question: 5 section: 1 line_1: The proposed observations must be made for both Io at both orbital elongations line_2: (including HRS/Trafton). Because each satellite has synchronous rotation with line_3: Jupiter, this insures that two independent hemispheres will be covered for each line_4: satellite. Previous studies of several kinds strongly suggest that there are line_5: significant hemispherical variations on Io. The orbital phase of Ganymede, (to line_6: be used as a calibrator) is not important. ! question: 6 section: 1 line_1: It is imperative to get a precise calibration, using the same instrument for line_2: the target and calibrator so that instrumental effects will not interfere with line_3: analysis. Since all the Galilean satellites are nearly the same size, Ganymede line_4: is ideal calibrator. If there is any variability in the solar spectrum at high line_5: resolution, contemporaneous observations of Ganymede will provide the best line_6: possible temporal calibration. ! question: 7 section: 1 line_1: Io spectra will be reduced to albedos using Ganymede comparison spectra. line_2: Absorption features will be matched to laboratory SO_2 spectra obtained at line_3: essentially the same resolution as the ST data. Because of the thinness of line_4: the atmosphere of Io, it is probable that sophisticated radiative transfer line_5: techniques will not be required, but that will only be determined after line_6: initial data reduction. ! question: 8 section: 1 line_1: Io will be observed at one orbital elongation under this proposal with the HRS line_2: G200M grating. L.M. Trafton of the HRS team will make an identical observation line_3: of Io at the OTHER elongation, and we will combine our data for analysis. His line_4: program is entitled "SO_2 on Io" and line 2 therein is the relevant exposure. ! question: 10 section: 1 line_1: We have a dedicated Sun 4/280 computer for data analysis. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: CALDWELL fname: JOHN mi: J. title: DR. category: PI inst: YORK UNIVERSITY addr_1: PHYSICS DEPARTMENT addr_2: 4700 KEELE STREET city: NORTH YORK state: ON zip: M3J1P3 country: CANADA ! ! end of general_form_address records !
