abstract:

    line_1:        Observations of Nova Cyg 1992 will be made in an attempt
    line_2:        to explore the physical conditions near the the white
    line_3:        dwarf in the system.  The observations will be made in
    line_4:        a wide bandpass UV filter (F140LP) to provide the best
    line_5:        signal-to-noise possible.

  question:        3
    section:       1
    line_1:        The target will be observered for one orbit at a sample
    line_2:        time of 0.1 seconds through the F140lp filter on UV2.  The
    line_3:        short wavelength of this observation will allow the inner
    line_4:        regions of the nova to be probed.

!

  question:        4
    section:       1
    line_1:        ST is required to observe the ulta-violet light curve of
    line_2:        the nova.  Without uv observations light from the outer
    line_3:        portions of the nova dominate the observations.

!

  question:        13
    section:       1
    line_1:        The light curve will be examined for variability, which is
    line_2:        a diagnostic of mechanisms operating close to the White Dwarf.
