This will line_10: allow for refinement of the dispersion curve which was line_11: effectively determined from very few lines. This level of line_12: calibration would then allow for reduction of objective line_13: prism observations and subsequent scientific comparison of line_14: FOC results with ground-based and IUE spectra which should line_15: which should be free of systematic errors. ! ! end of abstract general_form_proposers: lname: HACK fname: WARREN inst: SPACE TELESCOPE SCIENCE INSTITUTE country: USA ! ! end of general_form_proposers block general_form_text: question: 3 section: 1 line_1: Important characteristics of the objective prisms are the dimensions and line_2: displacements of the dispersed images on the FOC detectors. The following line_3: table lists the anticipated lengths and average offsets: line_5: length mean offset line_6: FUV/96 lambda 1200-lambda 6000 2.5 arcsec 4.8 arcsec line_7: NUV/96 lambda 1850-lambda 6000 8.0 arcsec 1.6 arcsec line_9: The objective prisms will be used as low dispersion line_10: spectrographs to provide spectra of a wavelength standard. line_12: The observations will use the 256X1024 format so that line_13: the NUVOP spectra are not cut off at either the UV or red line_14: end. Thus, the stars must be well centered in the line_15: X-direction. The direct images will be offset by the same line_16: amount as the prism images so that the star's absolute line_17: position can be precisely known allowing for accurate line_18: zero-point for the wavelength calculations of the spectra. ! !end of general form text general_form_address: lname: HACK fname: WARREN category: PI inst: SPACE TELESCOPE SCIENCE INSTITUTE ! ! end of general_form_address records fixed_targets: targnum: 1 name_1: SAND-3 descr_1: A,102 pos_1: RA=16H 06M 28.328S +/- 1", pos_2: DEC=-35D 45' 13.59" +/- 1" equinox: 2000 fluxnum_1: 1 fluxval_1: B=14 ! ! end of fixed targets !
