6. Abstract

Recently, our team has reported the detection of ~ 30 Halley- sized objects in the
Kuiper belt using HST/WFPC2 observations taken during Cycle 4. Our results represent
the first reported detections of objects the size of typical short- period comets in
their native reservoir. In addition to demonstrating that such objects are indeed
present in the Kuiper belt, we have proved that the HST/WFPC2 can be used to study
these objects. Here we are proposing to push the observations to heretofore
unprecedented levels by observing an ecliptic WPFC2 field, for a total integration
time of 35 orbits, in order to advance both studies of the population size
distribution, and the physical properties of cometary nuclei in the Kuiper belt.
These observations will allow us to study, for the first time, the physical
properties of objects with radii between ~ 2.5 and ~ 10 km in their native
environment. With a single deep WFPC2 data set, we will be able to determine the
size distribution and colors of these objects. We may even be able to determine the
lightcurves for some of our brightest objects. In all, we estimate that we should
detect and study ~ 200 new Kuiper belt objects.

  Observations Description
  ------------------------

     Our Cycle 4 observations have shown that Halley-sized objects do indeed
     populate the Kuiper belt, and that WFPC2/HST is capable of observing them. We
     are proposing to perform an ambitious set of WFPC2 observations in order to
     study the physical characteristics of these bodies. We propose a single set of
     WFPC2 observations that will collect a total of 35 orbits of integration time
     on one field in the Kuiper belt. Our objectives are to measure the size
     distribution and perhaps lightcurves of Kuiper belt objects with radii smaller
     than ~ 10, km. A 2.5 km Kuiper belt object at 30 au from the Sun, with an
     albedo of 0.04, will have a magnitude of V=30.0 when observed at quadrature.
     This object observed with a single 25hr exposure will have a signal-to-noise
     ratio (S/N) of 3.6 in the ``Wide V'' filter (F606W). Individual 20, min
     integrations (discussed below) summed to the 25 hr total will result in a
     slightly lower S/N of 2.7 due to increased readnoise. Although S/N=2 objects
     are not detectable as individuals, they are detectable as a group by using the
     statistical methods developed for our Cycle 4 observations (cf. Cochran et al.
     1995). Thus, we chose a total integration time of 25 hours in order to provide
     us with a reasonable sampling of objects of this size. As discussed in the
     previous section, the known Kuiper belt objects tend to be red in color,
     similar to a K star. Because of this red color, the same 2.5 km object with a
     heliocentric distance of 30 au will have a S/N=3.7 in a single 25 hr
     integration through the ``Wide R'' filter (F702W). Thus, we could use either
     the F606W or the F702W filter without much difference in overall sensitivity.
     We choose to use both the F606W filter and F702W filters on alternate orbits
     since the signal/noise will be approximate the same in each and the use of both
     may yield important color information about these objects. Recall that in the
     first paper analyzing our Cycle 4 data, we found approximately 30 objects with
     drift rates in the range 0.73 to 1.16 arcsec/hr. (Such drift rates are
     consistent with, but not restricted to, the motion of objects near perihelion
     in 2:3 Neptune mean motion resonances with eccentricities from 0.1 to 0.3). By
     restricting our proposed ultra-deep survey to roughly the same range of drift
     rates, we anticipate discovering roughly 200 objects in the same relatively
     small range of distances. However, there is one major modification that is
     needed to accommodate the 25 hr integration time. In order to ensure that we
     can recover objects from exposure to exposure, all of the frames must be taken
     within a 3-5 day period. In this length of time, most of the objects will move
     an angular distance which is larger than the field of view. However, if we
     track the telescope so that the center of the field follows a hypothetical
     comet moving with a drift rate of 0.95 arcsec/hr, then the largest differential
     drift rate for our sample will be 0.22 arcsec/hr. This procedure has two
     important features: 1) the individual exposure time can be increased from 10
     minutes to 20 minutes, since the light from the images in the proposed range of
     drift rates will remain on one pixel during each exposure and 2) over a one-
     week period a differential drift of 0.22 arcsec/hr with respect to the guiding
     center will produce a total differential motion of 37 arcsec, comfortably less
     than the 70 arcsec field of view. There should be no spacecraft roll between
     individual frames. We compute that 25 hours of total integration requires 35
     orbits of the spacecraft. This number was arrived at by packing two exposures
     of either 20 or 21 minutes (first or subsequent orbit of the available 8 orbits
     outside the SAA avoidance) per orbit with 5 minutes of overhead for the two
     exposures. In addition, there is either 8 or 6 minutes for guide star
     acquisition or reacquisition each orbit. This completely fills the 53 minute
     visibility window for a planetary object of our chosen declination. In summary,
     we are proposing to observe a single ecliptic WPFC2 field for a total
     integration time of 25 hours in order to study cometary nuclei in the Kuiper
     belt. These observations will allow us to study, for the first time, the
     physical properties of objects with radii between ~2.5 and ~10, km in their
     native environment. With a single deep WFPC2 data set we will be able to
     determine the size distribution and colors of these objects. In addition, we
     hope to be able to determine the lightcurves for some of our brightest objects.
     In all, we estimate that we should detect and study ~200 new Kuiper belt
     objects.
