Scientific paper

R136 is the bright central object of the 30 Doradus nebula in the LMC. It contains an unusually tight grouping of very massive and luminous O and Wolf-Rayet type stars. The brightest recognizeable component, called R136A1, may be an unresolved group of several stars, or may be a single object with a mass of order 800 Mo. Detailed studies of the individual components have been hampered by a lack of sufficient spatial resolution. The High Resolution Spectrograph will be used to obtain detailed ultraviolet spatial and spectral information about the five or so brightest discrete components. The goal of the program is to study the spectral morphology, stellar wind characteristics, ultraviolet luminosities and ultimately the masses included in this unusual and interesting object. redlined for phase 2, 7/19/88, dce updated for cycle 1 phase 2 9/21/89 revised lines 1-7 for cycle zero 11/15/90
