Scientific paper

The purpose is to measure the absolute sensitivity of the NUVMAMA imaging modes with the the CN182, CN270, MGII, and CIII filters. Justification: On orbit measurements of spectrophotometric standards suggest a 10-15% drop in imaging sensitivity in the NUV relative to pre-launch estimates. This measurment is based on observations of a single star in the MGII and CIII filters, and of a different standard with the F25ND3 filter. We wish to confirm the sensitivity change and measure its wavelength dependence by observing spectrophotometric standard with the NUV narrrow and intermediate-band filters. Two different stars are required for the different bandwidths because of the bright-object limitations of the MAMA detector.
