Scientific paper

This is a proposal to study the morphology of distant galaxies, a field that has lagged far behind what has been learned from spectroscopic work. The targeted galaxies all have been extensively observed from the ground. Nearly all are in the redshift range 0.24-0.65. Ground-based data include broad-baseline 4-color photometry and, in nearly all cases, redshifts. The targets include a rich X-ray cluster that is surprisingly deficient in blue galaxies, and three other fields that each have numerous galaxies that have been richly observed from the ground. Each field will be observed with the WFC, while a parallel observation observes a similarly well-studied galaxy with the FOC at greater resolving power. These observations will take the first crucial step toward investigating the morphology of the rich sample of medium-redshift galaxies in the Koo-Kron redshift surveys.
