BETWEENs are shifted to match TESS Sector 59 and should be considered preliminary -197348200 ----- Attempting Submission 1 (Thu Jul 29 17:16:28 GMT 2021) ----- ----- Attempting Submission 2 (Fri Jul 30 20:28:05 GMT 2021) ----- ----- Attempting Submission 3 (Thu Jul 28 13:32:19 GMT 2022) ----- Warnings about FP-POS use are expected and can be ignored The Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI) Director has decided to devote up to 1000 orbits of Director's Discretionary time in observing Cycles 27-29 to a new Hubble Ultraviolet Legacy program focused on star formation and associated stellar physics. This new program, ULLYSES (UV Legacy Library of Young Stars as Essential Standards), will provide a UV spectroscopic reference sample of young (< 10 Myr) high- and low-mass stars. It will target ~165 OB stars in the Magellanic Clouds and lower metallicity galaxies in the Local Group, and ~67 T Tauri stars and brown dwarfs in the Milky Way. In addition, ULLYSES will monitor 4 typical T Tauri stars over different rotational phases through at least three rotation periods, and over timescales of months to years. The resulting library will provide template spectra of massive stars at metallicities substantially below the well studied, while the low mass sample will cover a wide range of ages, accretion rates, and masses, including objects down to well below 0.5 M_sun. The legacy of this large UV dataset on the first 10 Myr of stellar evolution will be enhanced by complementary datasets obtained by the scientific community. In addition to the core goals of the program related to stellar astrophysics of low and high mass stars, this data will also enable exciting science in the fields of ISM, CGM, jets, and exoplanets. ULLYSES will be modeled after the Frontier Fields program: all data obtained will be non-proprietary. The implementation team at STScI is developing high-level science data products and a sophisticated database and website for disseminating data from the ULLYSES program and ancillary datasets for the ULLYSES target sample from space and ground-based facilities. Observations use COS NUV + FUV and all visits are single orbit with SCHED=100. This target will be observed by TESS in Sector 59, which runs from 2022-Nov-26 to 2022-Dec-23. For the purpose of coordinated observations, this version sets the BETWEEN for all visits to be from 2022-Nov-26 to 2022-Dec-23. The target should be scheduled as early in this window as possible. This window will be refined when more detailed information about the timing of TESS observations is available. The rotation period of the target is 6.1 days = 92.2 orbits. We want to schedule 4 visits/period over three consecutive rotation periods, but we don't care about zero point shifts in the whole pattern. Ideal visit spacing would be 23.1 orbits. If we allow windows that are multiples of 23.1 +/- 4.1 orbits after visit 1 the required AFTER BY orbit values are as follows Visit 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 Start 19.0 42.0 65.1 88.2 111.2 134.3 157.4 180.4 203.5 226.6 249.6 End 27.2 50.2 73.3 96.4 119.4 142.5 165.6 188.6 211.7 234.8 257.8 The windows could be widened a bit if needed to facilitate scheduling. If possible, we would like to schedule visits during the period from roughly 0h to 16h UT every day when the target will be visible from LCOGT telescopes. More precise windows can be provided, and these can be enforced manually instead of as rigid BETWEENs. 0 false SUPPORTED STAR PRE-MAIN SEQUENCE STAR T TAURI STAR NO tstatus; V-GM-AUR ; P/COS approved for submission; S/ins not started; P/JRD 21/07/21; S/xx DD/MM/YY tcheck; APT/SIMBAD target names: ; V-GM-AUR ...
