A grid of histograms indicating the available exposure time at a particular
Right Ascension and Declination for
FUSE Cycle 8 observations is available for proposers.
The grid is organized by declination along the y -axis and by Right
Ascension along the x-axis. Clicking upon the (RA,Dec) grid point
closest to your target coordinates will produce a histogram
plot estimating the exposure time and windows available for that
coordinate.
To maintain higher resolution in the histograms,
exposure time
windows of 30 ksec and longer are depicted graphically as 30 ksec windows .
However, in the caption at the top of the histogram the number of
windows > 30 ksec is given along with the total amount of time
occuring in windows > 30 ksec.
Three feasibility examples are provided for clarification of the
requirements, histogram useage, and the available observing time.
Right Ascension is listed in degrees.
