C. Research Experience for Undergraduates (REU) Program.

In December 1986 the National Science Foundation (NSF) announced a new programto attract talented students into research careers in the fields of mathematics, science and engineering. NOAO was invited to submit proposals both as an REU participation site and also as a supplement to a current program supporting researchexperience for minority students. Competitive proposals were submitted and basedupon the merits of the proposals awards were made. NOAO is very pleased to participate in the REU program. Our past experience in working with students-boththrough the minority program and through the summer research assistantprogram-coupled with this year's experience in working with students under theREU program testifies to the continued need for support of such programs.Currently there are twelve students participating in NOAO's REU site program.Eleven of the students are engaged in 12-week summer research programs either atNOAO's facility in Tucson or in Sacramento Peak. The twelfth student is working inTucson on a year-long project. Because of the delay in receiving the approval forthe supplemental program for minorities we were not able to advertise and activelyrecruit students for participation in that program for the summer. However, wewere able to attract one minority student from the University of Arizona for 12weeks this summer. In addition we have been in contact with the University ofArizona Minority Office regarding recruitment of minority students for participationin the REU program during the Fall 1987 semester. Through this method of reaching out to local minorities we expect to extend the REU program benefits to an additional five students.

The thirteen students currently involved in research with NOAO scientists are working on a variety of projects. As an illustration of how well this program is workingwe would like to briefly outline the projects and the benefits both the students andthe advisors are gaining from these interactions.

(1) Renate Kupke; W. Livingston, advisor; Tucson; Fourier Tach Spectrometer,Observations and Reductions (one year project).

This project is operating on a campaign basis-12 hours a day. Renate is takinga half-day observation. In addition she is learning to observe with the McMathtelescope and helping with the reduction of those observations.

(2) Tracy Hodge; D. Backman, advisor; Tucson; Analysis of Infrared Spectroscopyand Photometry of Epsilon Aurigae.

Tracy is receiving her first exposure to new astronomical data and the stepsleading from definition of an experimental problem to production of ascientific paper. She has participated in a 4-m observing run on Kitt Peak.Through her participation in the completion of a project which has beengranted long-term observing status at Kitt Peak for high-resolution (FTS)infrared spectroscopy of the binary star epsilon Aurigae she will also participate in the preparation of a review article on the subject of that same star.

(3) Marlisa MacLeod; S. Keil, advisor; Sacramento Peak; Energy Transport in SolarMagnetic Regions.

Marlisa is learning to handle large data bases, use an interactive graphiclanguage, write fortran subroutines for finding spectral parameters, how to useFourier techniques to filter and smooth data, and is being exposed to forefrontsolar research. The data she reduces will be incorporated into our program todetermine how magnetic fields alter the normal flow of energy through thesolar atmosphere and to understand how the solar atmosphere is heated.

(4) Gregory Leonard; M. Giampapa, advisor; Tucson; Heating of the Chromosphereof a dMe Flare Star.

Gregory is benefiting from an introduction to advanced techniques for theanalysis of spectroscopic data as obtained with a modern spectrograph anddetector system. The advanced techniques involve the Fourier analysis of atime series of spectra of a dMe flare star. Through Gregory's assistance inreducing and analyzing the numerous spectra resulting from this particularexperiment this project will be completed at least four months earlier thanwithout his participation.

(5) Kenneth La ; J. Harvey, advisor; Tucson; Solar Rotation and Large Scale MotionsDeduced from Daily Motion of Small Magnetic Features.

Through his active participation in this project Kenneth is gaining an appreciation of the complexities of a full-scale research project. He is learning newtechniques of data reduction as well as being exposed to different computingtools and the operation of a modern astronomical telescope and its instrumentation. With Kenneth's assistance we will be able to make substantial progresson this research problem.

(6) Amy Barton; T. Kinman, advisor; Tucson; Identification of UCG and ZwickyGalaxies in Selected Fields.

Amy's participation in this project will gain her familiarity with the major starcatalogs and how these may be used to derive positions of the programobjects. She will be using the Grant two-coordinate comparator in conjunctionwith our Vax computer system to make these measurements. The actual measurements are being made on our glass copies of the Palomar survey. This combination of measuring machine and survey plates is only found in very fewobservatories in the world. Amy will also be writing a number of Fortran programs that will sort the data that she has measured and put the results into auseful format. She has already visited Kitt Peak for two nights and haswatched a number of astronomers observing.

(7) Walter Bennet; K. Hinkle, advisor; Tucson; Instrumentation for FourierTransform Spectroscopy.

Walter is getting a detailed introduction into the design and fabrication ofinstruments for large optical telescopes. This includes cryogenic and highvacuum equipment as well as optical components. He has made a number ofparts and assembled the optics for an experiment with GaAs detectors that weplan to undertake in August.

(8) David Williams; R. Altrock, advisor; Sacramento Peak; Analysis of Coronal Transients.

David is gaining familiarity with solar physics from a hands-on perspective andis getting a real education in solar physics data bases, image processing anddisplay, and computer operation, as well as the specific subject of coronal transients. David's efforts in data reduction and the early analysis portion of thisresearch project will lead to the production of a research paper authored byDavid and his advisor.

(9) Mary Hrovat; D. Neidig, advisor; Sacramento Peak; Measurements of the Spectrum and energetics of the 25 April 1984 White Light Flare.Mary is gaining an introduction to recent literature, analysis techniques andmajor scientific questions on the topic of solar flares. She also is gaining firsthand experience in working with computers and a microdensitometer, as wellas direct, working-level interaction with the personnel and activities of a majorastronomical observatory. Through Mary's participation in this project she and

her advisor will co-author resulting scientific publications.

(10) David Borthwick; M. Belton, advisor; Tucson; Modelling the Rotation of theNucleus of p/Halley.

Through the new programming techniques that David learns a program topredict the brightness of p/Halley, as a function of time will be gained. In theprocess David will learn how to conduct a scientific research program, and beexposed to an area of astronomy currently emphasized in the national spaceprogram. David's program will be used by his advisor in conjunction withobservational results to establish a rotational ephemeris for p/Halley.

(11) Kevin Strobel; P. Massey and J. Barnes, advisors; Tucson; SpectrophotometricStandard Stars.

Kevin is learning the ins-and-outs of data reduction and analysis by reducingIRS and IIDS data on these standard stars. In addition this project allows Kevinto become familiar with the physical basis for the magnitude system. Throughthis project we will gain information on good fluxes to use for doing spectrophotometry.

(12) Gwendolyn Sweeney; C. Pilachowski, advisor; Tucson; Experiments in ImageQuality Control (minority program).

Gwendolyn is participating in several projects in adaptive optics. She isinvolved in a program to measure seeing on Kitt Peak, and in several projectsto develop new interferometric instruments at NOAO.

This chapter discusses the major new projects (i.e. the development oftechnology for the next generation of telescopes--NTT-and GONG), the baseinstrumentation program and the new projects and instrumentation Initiativeswhich NOAO will be conducting in FY 1987. Within the base and Initiativesprograms we include new focal plane instrumentation, innovative ways to conductexperimental and observational astronomy, major improvements to existingfacilities, and development of computer-based capabilities. Not included aresmall telescope-improvement projects which are budgeted directly underOperations and Maintenance and carried out to the extent possible by a supportgroup whose primary responsbility is for maintenance of the existing telescopesand observing equipment.

We distinguish, then, six areas under this program category of major facilitiesand instrumentation, each one of which may be carried out within NOAO or incoordination with an external group:

• Major New Projects - principally new telescopes.Continuing work directed towards the provision of unique,powerful new capabilities for U.S. optical astronomy must berecognized as an essential central element of NOAO andmust be constantly present in its program.

• User Instrumentation - designed and constructed to providethe best possible capabilities for the user community incombination with the reliability and general user-friendlinessappropriate for national facilities.

C. Major Facilities Maintenance

The budget cuts of the past few years, combined with the reprogramming of fundstoward major initiatives such as the development of technology for the next generation of telescopes and the construction of the GONG network, have left us withsome serious maintenance problems that must be corrected. Two such items wereserious enough that we chose to reprogram monies originally earmarked for initiatives to operations and maintenance to address these problems.

(1) Frequency Converter (CTIO).One of the important early decisions of the AURA Board with respect to CTIO wasthe decision to have all electrical power on the mountain be 60 Hz. Originally, thisrequirement was not an inconvenience since all mountain power was provided by adiesel generator which could be run at either 50 or 60 Hz. However, the tremendous increase in the cost of fuel during the last decade caused CTIO to eventuallytie into the Chilean national network (ENDESA), saving roughly $100,000 per year.ENDESA now provides the mountain with a 50 Hz high voltage line which must bestepped-down via a frequency converter, i.e., a continually operating motor whichtakes the incoming voltage and gives out voltage at 60 Hz. The present converterwas purchased in 1976, and has a maximum output of 300 kilowatts.Because of the heavy increase in power demands in the past few years from morecomputers, refrigeration units, cryogenic pumps, etc., CTIO is operating daily nearthe capacity of the present converter. During the month of March 1987 the frequency converter overloaded twice and shutdown. These shutdowns are never"gentle", inasmuch as insulation burns and bushings score. Each time it has beennecessary to run off the emergency generator for a few days-which is adequate butexpensive-and we have been fortunate in being able to fix the converter. Thefailures in the present converter have already impacted the mountain operations tothe extent that it has been necessary to suspend much of the telescope seeingimprovements program, which involved cooling oil and using fans to circulate airthrough the domes, because of their power requirements. In addition there is considerable concern that any subsequent shutdown will cause severe damage to theconverter. Because of the urgency in this matter we have purchased a new frequency converter capable of 500 KW output. By the end of FY 1987 this problemshould be resolved.

(2) Roof (Tucson Offices).The roof on the older part of the headquarters building in Tucson is now 14 yearsold. Despite several attempts to patch the roof, many new leaks developed duringheavy winter rains this year. Acoustic ceiling tile and walls were damagedthroughout the building, and leaks into the computer room were so extensive thatwe were forced to shut down the computing system temporarily.We have concluded that the most cost effective solution is to remove the existingroofing and replace it down to, but not including, the metal deck. Damage is extensive, including fractures, bubbles, and overall deterioration of materials; anyattempt to make repairs would be a waste of funds and manpower. The roofingmaterials are saturated with water; the insulation has been compacted to such anextent that it no longer serves as an effective insulator. We are presently installinga roofing system that will consist of an insulation board, which will provide an R-19value, covered with a monolithic sheet of modified bitumen membrane which,because of its elastic properties, will be less likely to be damaged by traffic andbuilding movement caused by the extremes of Tucson temperatures. A protective

layer of white coating will then be applied to reflect the Sun, thus lowering the rooftemperature during the summer and further preventing breakdown. The system hasa ten-year guarantee and a life expectancy of 15 to 20 years.

USAF: Sacramento Peak SupportUnder a Memorandum of Understanding between the United States Air Force(USAF) and the National Science Foundation (NSF), the USAF provides fundingto support a group of USAF employees who are physically located at SacramentoPeak and who support programs/projects which are of special interest to theUSAF.

USAF: Solar Optical Observing Network (SOON)The Solar Optical Observing Network (SOON) is a USAF-funded project for thefabrication and installation of five solar telescopes located worldwide. The finalSOON telescope was installed in Europe in FY 1986 under the direction of R.Dunn. Spare parts will be fabricated and delivered to the USAF this year tocomplete the project.

USAF: Adaptive OpticsThe USAF has provided NSO with funding to initiate development of a secondgeneration adaptive mirror. The work includes development of a phase detectorsystem, development of an interferometer to measure fringes from the activemirror surface, and development of an improved mirror control system with arange several times that of the first generation mirrors.

USAF: Multilayer UV Mirror ResearchThe USAF has asked M. Giampapa to expand his OSD funded subcontract withLockheed Space and Missile Company for multilayer mirror research. The USAFprogram studies soft x-ray spectral regions and selects those wavelengths whichwill provide the best diagnostics for solar active regions. Funding also providesfor the design, fabrication, and testing of normal incidence mirrors in theselected spectral regions.

NASA: FTS Program for Upper Atmospheric ResearchJ. Brault is participating in this project as principal investigator. Primaryactivities are upper atmospheric studies utilizing the FTS at the McMathtelescope.

NASA: Infrared Astronomy Satellite (IRAS)F. Gillett's participation on the Science Team of the IRAS will continue. In FY1987 he will participate in the processing of data obtained by the satellite,analyze the data in collaboration with a number of other scientists and preparethe results for publication.

NASA: Project GalileoM. Belton is participating in Project Galileo as the team leader for the SolidState Imaging System. Funding will be used to support Dr. Belton's travel toteam and project meetings, the cost of consultants to the team, and thedevelopment of a "Home Institution Image Processing System (HUPS) to beinstalled at the NOAO Tucson offices.

NASA: Tuneable Wide Field Lvot FilterR. Dunn and R. Smartt are principal investigators of this proposal submitted toNASA. During FY 1987 they will oversee the design and fabrication of atuneable wide field Lyot filter.

The USAF hasalso provided funds for the installation of an active optics system at SacramentoPeak. The systems will be used to obtain diffraction-limited images of solaratmospheric dynamics and activity.

NASA: Vacuum Telescope SupportNSO has provided the solar physics community with full-disk, high resolutionmagnetograms and He 10830 spectroheliograms for a number of years using theVacuum Telescope for synoptic observations. Since 1979, NASA (a primary userof this data) has been providing funding to assist in the operational support andimprovement of the telescope.

NASA: NASA/RMT - MIT/ETC ProjectsB. Teegarden of NASA, in collaboration with G. Ricker of Massachusetts Instituteof Technology (MIT), will be operating the Rapidly Moving Telescope (RMT) andthe Explosive Transient Camera (ETC) on Kitt Peak for at least the next fiveyears. NASA funding is for support provided by KPNO operations personnel.

NASA: Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph (STIS)NASA has provided funds to support S. Wolff and R. Green for theirparticipation in the STIS Instrumentation Definition Team. In addition, NOAOwill support the STIS instrument by testing CCD images and serving as technicalliaison between the manufacturer, the STIS team, and NASA. Finally, NOAO willprovide technical and scientific assistance in choosing the final flight packageddevice(s).
