Implications of the Sample Rate on Large Space Telescopes
D. J. Fixsen, R. H. Cornett
The frequency at which a large space telescope's (e.g. NGST's) detector chips are read, or the sample rate, is tightly coupled to many hardware and operational aspects of the teles…
A Comparison of Ultraviolet, Optical, and X-Ray Imagery of Selected Fields in the Cygnus Loop
Charles W. Danforth, Robert H. Cornett, N. A. Levenson +2
During the Astro-1 and Astro-2 Space Shuttle missions in 1990 and 1995, far ultraviolet (FUV) images of five 40' diameter fields around the rim of the Cygnus Loop supernova remnant…
STIS Coronagraphic Observations of Beta Pictoris
Sara R. Heap, Don J. Lindler, Thierry M. Lanz +4
We present new coronagraphic images of Beta Pictoris obtained with the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS) in September 1997. The high-resolution images (0.1") clearly dete…
Ultraviolet Imaging of the z=0.23 Cluster Abell 2246
Robert H. Cornett, Ben Dorman, Eric P. Smith +8
We present deep ultraviolet observations of a field containing the cluster Abell 2246 (z=0.225) which provide far-ultraviolet (FUV) images of some of the faintest galaxies yet obse…
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope: Instrument and Data Characteristics
Theodore P. Stecher, Robert H. Cornett, Michael R. Greason +16
The Ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (UIT) was flown as part of the Astro observatory on the Space Shuttle Columbia in December 1990 and again on the Space Shuttle Endeavor in March 1…
Ultraviolet Signatures of Tidal Interaction in the Giant Spiral Galaxy, M101
William H. Waller, Ralph C. Bohlin, Robert H. Cornett +10
We present new evidence for tidal interactions having occurred in the disk of M101 in the last 10^8 - 10^9 years. Recent imaging of the far-ultraviolet emission from M101 by the Sh…
