Dynamical Confirmation of a Stellar-mass Black Hole in the Globular Cluster M62 Using radio, X-ray, and optical observations, we have discovered the first candidate black holes in Milky Way globular clusters. The existence of stellar-mass black holes in globular clusters would have broad implications: (a) globular clusters would become important hunting grounds for stellar-mass black holes, of which few are still known; (b) black holes in globular clusters would offer good tests of the physics of low-luminosity accretion; (c) globular clusters might offer a less biased view of the black hole mass function than the field; and (d) the prospects for detecting gravitational wave sources such as black hole--black hole binaries would be improved. The black hole candidate in the Milky Way globular cluster M62 is the first with a bright red giant secondary. We propose multi-epoch STIS spectroscopy of this star to obtain the first dynamical confirmation of a black hole in a globular cluster. The goal of the observations is to measure the radial velocity variations of the red giant secondary to a candidate stellar-mass black hole in the globular cluster M62. In each of 10 visits, there will be one orbit of STIS spectroscopy using the G430L grating (in one of the 10 visits, there will be an additional orbit of spectroscopy using the G750L grating for the purpose of obtaining a broadband spectrum of the object to examine the morphology of the H-alpha emission line and to model the contribution of the accretion disk to the spectrum). Since the target object has V~18.1 and is not the brightest star within the STIS acquistion box, we will first acquire a bright red giant about 8" away and then do an offset to the main target, after which we will peakup using the 52x0.1E1 aperture. The orientation angle is restricted because of the presence of nearby stars, but we do not requre that all observations be taken at the same orientation. Each G430L orbit will be CR-SPLIT into two exposures. Since we desire the best possible wavelength calibration, we have added a GO-WAVECAL during occultation so that the G430L observations are bracketed by arcs. For the single orbit with the G750L grating, we use 3 CR-SPLIT exposures rather than two given the shorter overheads and so longer total exposure time, and also added a fringe flat.
