Earlier exposures of the WF in the crowded cluster NGC 1850 line_4: revealed unexpected variations in the PSF over the field. It is now desired line_5: to repeat this observation in the PC for similar information. The data are line_6: needed to understand and remove the optical aberrations of the line_7: PC from data taken to characterize the aberrations of the OTA. As the results line_8: may have a large bearing on strategy to measure the OTA aberrations, they line_9: should be carried out as soon as possible. Only one series of exposures line_10: in a single filter and a single pointing is required. No additional PSF line_11: observations are needed. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: fname: WF/PC IDT inst: VARIOUS country: USA ! ! end of general_form_proposers block general_form_text: question: 3 section: 1 line_1: A series of PC exposures is taken in filter line_2: F555W in a crowded field to look at variations in the PSF line_3: over the field. ! question: 4 section: 1 line_1: OTA-instrument calibration. ! question: 5 section: 1 line_1: The secondary mirror position and focus are not critical, but if possible it line_2: it would be neatest to use the same values as on Day 228, when the first line_3: series with the WF was taken, at focus position -10 microns. ! question: 6 section: 1 line_1: Avoid the SAA for all exposures. ! question: 7 section: 1 line_1: These data will be analyzed at the WF/PC data analysis facilities line_2: and made available to the Optical Advisory Panel on the status line_3: of the OTA aberrations. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: WESTPHAL fname: JAMES mi: A. category: PI inst: CALTECH ! lname: FABER fname: SANDRA category: CON inst: WFPC TEAM addr_1: BOWIE STATE UNIVERSITY addr_2: 14000 JERICHO PARK ROAD city: BOWIE state: MD zip: 20715 country: USA phone: 301-464-9624 ! lname: LIGHT fname: ROBERT category: CON inst: WFPC TEAM addr_1: BOWIE STATE UNIVERSITY addr_2: 14000 JERICHO PARK ROAD city: BOWIE state: MD zip: 20715 country: USA phone: 301-464-9624 ! lname: GUNN fname: JAMES mi: E. category: CON inst: PRINCETON UNIVERSITY addr_1: ASTROPHYSICAL SCIENCE addr_2: PEYTON HALL city: PRINCETON state: NJ zip: 08540 country: USA phone: 609-452-3802 ! lname: DANIELSON fname: G.
