Scientific paper

We propose deep far-UV imaging of the Hubble Deep Field {HDF} with the ACS-SBC . Previously, we surveyed 1/5 of the HDF in the UV and now propose to complete the area. Near- and far-UV number counts suggest that there is a large population of UV- bright starbursts at moderate redshifts {z<0.6}, and our proposed observations will investigate their nature. We will measure the star formation properties of these galaxies and their morphologies in the UV, optical, and near-IR. This catalog of starbursts will also be important to the astronomical community after Cycle 11 in interpreting planned SIRTF observations of the field. We will also set strict limits on the flux escaping in intermediate redshift {1
