PI: Mr. Haojing Yan Arizona State University CoI: Dr. Rogier A. Windhorst Arizona State University N ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 5. Abstract A fundamental cosmological question is when and how the universe was reionized. It is now generally believed that the reionization ended by z=6. There is evidence that QSO/AGN cannot provide enough photons to keep the universe ionized at that epoch. In Yan et al. (2003), we presented a first statistically significant sample of 6.0 Visit Requirements: PCS MODE FINE SCHED 30% On Hold Comments: Additional Comments: Exposures ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Exposure| Target |Instr | Oper. | Aper |Spectral|Central| Optional |Num| Time | Special Number | Name |Config| Mode |or FOV |Element |Waveln.| Parameters |Exp| | Requirements ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 1 ACSPAR01SUB NIC3 MULTIAC NIC3 F110W SAMP-SEQ=SPARS64,OFFSET=FOM, 1 DEF PATTERN 1 1 01 CUM NSAMP=10 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 2 ACSPAR01SUB NIC3 MULTIAC NIC3 F110W SAMP-SEQ=SPARS64,OFFSET=FOM, 1 DEF POS TARG 0.067, 0.067 01 CUM NSAMP=10 PATTERN 1 2 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 3 ACSPAR01SUB NIC3 MULTIAC NIC3 F110W SAMP-SEQ=SPARS64,OFFSET=FOM, 1 DEF POS TARG -0.067,-0.067 01 CUM NSAMP=10 PATTERN 1 3 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Sub Exposures ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Visit Id| Exp Id |Primary |Secondary |Iteration |CR-SPLIT |Orbit Num |Duration | |Pattern Pos |Pattern Pos |Num |Num | | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ 01 1 1 none none none 1 tbd 01 1 2 none none none 1 tbd 01 1 3 none none none 1 tbd 01 1 4 none none none 1 tbd 01 1 5 none none none 1 tbd 01 2 1 none none none 2 tbd 01 2 2 none none none 2 tbd 01 2 3 none none none 2 tbd 01 2 4 none none none 2 tbd 01 2 5 none none none 2 tbd 01 3 1 none none none 3 tbd 01 3 2 none none none 3 tbd 01 3 3 none none none 3 tbd 01 3 4 none none none 3 tbd 01 3 5 none none none 3 tbd 9780( 9) -
