Thanks

The editor thanks Sylvia Baggett and Peter McCullough for major contributions in the areas of the UVIS post-flash and spatial scanning modes, respectively, and John Biretta, Matthew Bourque, Susana Deustua, Janice Lee, Knox Long, and Nor Pirzkal for providing information and suggestions for improvements to support the editing of this edition. Contributions to earlier editions were made by past and present members of the Science IPT and by ECF scientists Martin Kümmel, Harald Kuntschner, and Jeremy Brett.

The contributions of Susan Rose (Senior Technical Editor) to the editing and production of this Instrument Handbook, as always, are greatly appreciated.
