Scientific paper

We define a core set of capabilities for STIS which should be developed and supported for Cycle 7. This core set enables the overwhelming majority of scientific uses of STIS while providing a great simplification to the interface to the GO, to the needed ground systems, including TRANS, PDB, and command development, to the calibration and PDB table requirements, and to the calibration software. Perhaps more importantly, by focusing our efforts on this core set, we assure that we will provide robust support for the capabilities of STIS which are needed to conduct >95% of the science. At the same time, all of the capabilities of STIS which are supported by the hardware and flight and ground software and for which the necessary PDB files are produced by the IDT can be made available as Engineering Only modes. They can subsequently be developed and brought on for GO use in subsequent cycles if there is scientific need.
