Scientific paper

This document summarizes the NICMOS Calibration Plan for Cycle 12. (CPC12). The plan complements the SMOV3b, the Cycle 10 (interim), and the Cycle 11 calibration programs. These previous programs have shown that the instrument is very stable, which has motivated a reduction in the frequency of the monitoring programs for CPC12. Because this stable behavior, systematic errors in the calibration become more important. For this reason CPC12 includes two programs aimed at reducing such errors: the photometric and spectroscopic recalibrations. The CPC12 also includes an outsourced calibration to enable coronagraphic + polarimetric observations.
