Scientific paper

This document describes the NICMOS calibration activities for cycle 10 which will execute after the completion of the SMOV3b program and before the start of the routine Cycle 11 calibration program. These activities cover a period of approximately 5 months and pursue the following objectives: i) enable calibration of the imaging mode for the three cameras and all the spectral elements, ii) complete the calibrations of the spectroscopic mode, iii) monitor during this period key aspects of the instrument (optics stability, detectors properties, scientific capability), and iv) to perform special calibrations (i.e. ‘gain test’; accum-darks to support post-SAA observations) which were not implemented in the SMOV3b program .
