Cycle 8 CVZ Tables

(from Appendix G of the

Cycle 8 Call for Proposals)

 

The tables in this Appendix will be useful for proposing observations that can take advantage of CVZ observing (see section 14.1). Included are three tables for each of northern and southern declinations for the 12-month period June 01, 1999 - June 01, 2000 (1999.152:01:00:00 - 2000.151:22:00:00):

1. the maximum duration in orbits of any single CVZ window;

2. the total duration in orbits of all CVZ opportunities for targets at the specified RA and Declination; and

3. the total number of CVZ windows.

Proposers should be aware that near the "wings" of the CVZ area (i.e., where there is only one CVZ window), the actual availability of CVZ observing will depend in detail on the geometry of the HST orbit during Cycle 8.
