Scientific paper

This proposal is used to determine and monitor the optimal focus and tilt settings for all three NICMOS cameras after the first NIC3 observing campaign. This proposal is built to run a NIC3 sweep every 28 days, and run NIC1 or NIC2 sweeps alternately, every 56 days, with the non-prime camera in parallel for free. This proposal will begin execution 2 weeks following the execution of the last visit of proposal 7608 {i.e. Feb 16, 1998}, and should run through the remaining cryogen lifetime. There are enough visits in this proposal {1 every 28 days} to run through Feb 1999. Objectives: a} Cover sufficient region of PAM focus space to insure the optimal locations are included b} Allow sufficient time {7-10 days} to analyze data and uplink changes when required c} reduce the number of PAM cycles by 75 cycles/month over the current NICMOS focus monitor {7608}.
