Scientific paper

This program has 2 main goals: 1} to verify that the desired wavelength has been correctly placed over the corresponding ramp filter aperture; 2} to measure the throughput at a few selected wavelengths as a function of position within the ramp filter monochomatic FOV. These measurements will be carried out by imaging a known and well observed {both HST and ground-based} planetary nebula {PN} in several key emission lines - [OII] 3727, [OIII] 5007, H-alpha+[NII] and/or [SII] 6717, 6731. These 3 {4} emission lines fall onto three separate middle ramp segments - FR388N, FR505N, and FR656N - and will allow intercomparison between the ACS ramp filters and fixed bandpass narrow-band filters F502N {[OIII] 5007} and F658N {H-alpha + [NII]} for both the WFC and HRC detectors.
