Dear Dr. Riegel:
Enclosed are 10 copies of Revision I to NOAO's FY-1988 Program Plan incorporatingthe changes requested in Mr. Asrael's letter dated April 11, 1988. The revised Planalso includes $150,000 additional funds and $50,000 reprogrammed funds for theSteward Observatory Mirror Laboratory in accordance with Mr. Tuttle's letter datedApril 20, 1988 and $16,798 NASA carryover funds which were transferred to the NSFcontract as approved by Mr. Asrael's letter dated January 27, 1988. The revisionconsists of the following pages:
NEW- Section III.C, Research Experience for Undergraduates, pp. 35a-35b
REVISED-Funding Schedule for Major Projects and Instrumentation, pp. 36a-36b
NEW - Section VI, Non-NSF Projects, pp. 76a-76c
REVISED-Appendix 4, FY-1987 User Statistics
REVISED-Appendix 5, Budget Tables
The revised Plan reflects the following actions which were necessary to achieve thereduction in FY-1988 funds:
GONG - hardware acquisitions deferred andprogram stretched out $1,000,000
Computer acquisitions - eliminated 186,000
Distributed Array - funded with carryover only 121,000
Gratings Operations and Research - eliminated 56,000
Facilities maintenance - eliminated 140,000
Non-payroll accounts - reduced by 5% 311,000
Operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc. (AURA) under contract with the National Science Foundation
Dr. Kurt RiegelPage 2May 20, 1988
Staffing - four vacant positions deleted 284,000
Steward Mirror Lab - funding reduced (net ofadded funding mentioned above) 100,000
Salary increases - deferred 352,000
The balance of the reduction was taken in the Director's Reserve, essentiallyexhausting that account.
If funding permits, we will pay employees a bonus near the end of the fiscal yearapproximately equivalent to what the pay increase would have been. As a result weexpect to finish FY-1988 with very little carryover funds. Prompt receipt of FY-1989 funding will beessential if we are to continue operations without interruption.
Sincerely,

C. Research Experience for Undergraduates.
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 REUparticipation 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 toparticipate in the REU program. Our past experience in working with students-both through 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 eight students participating in NOAO's REU site program. Sevenof the students are engaged in 12 to 15-week summer research programs either atNOAO's facility in Tucson or at Sacramento Peak. The eighth student has beenextended on her original one-year project by one month.
Funding was not renewed for the minority student program but we were able toextend the three students through the summer of 1988 by using surplus funds fromthis program.
The eight students currently involved in research with NOAO scientists are workingon a variety of projects. As an illustration of how well this program continues towork we would like to briefly outline the projects and the benefits both thestudents and the advisors are gaining from these interactions.
(1) Thien Trang Thi Dang; C. Neese, advisor. Ms. Dang will be involved in a studyof the kinematic and abundance properties of the galactic halo. Spectra, onphotographic plates, will be scanned and digitized prior to the measurement ofradial velocities. These new data will be combined with the advisor's previousinformation for a different part of the Galaxy.
(2) Amar Suryakant Gandhi; M. Belton, advisor. Mr. Gandhi will be working on thereduction of data on the light curve of Halley's Comet and analyzing this datafor the nuclear rotation period.
(3) Kjirsten Grove; P. Massey, advisor. Ms. Grove will be using the PDSmicrodensitometer to scan plates of Wolf-Rayet stars classified as composite"WC + WN" type, plus reducing CCD spectra of the same systems. These datawill hopefully tell us whether these are WC + WN binaries, or single stars withanomalous properties.
(4) Renate Kupke; F. Hill, advisor. Ms. Kupke will continue to analyze the GONGsite survey data. During her year with NOAO she has developed software tocorrect the data for clock errors and to indicate instrumental problems. Shealso will continue to enter new data into the site survey database.
(5) Kimberly Dawn Leka; D. Haber, advisor. Ms. Leka's project will be to helpdigitize 15 days of full-disk images taken with the UBF on the Vacuum TowerTelescope during April of 1985. She will use the fast microdensitometer,convert film densities into intensities on the red and blue side of the 5576 Aspectral line, and then convert these intensities into radial velocities.
35 a
(6) Michael Smutko; R. Smartt, advisor. Mr. Smutko will work with R. Smartt on aproject to investigate events as recorded in the solar emission corona.Specifically, under conditions when a flare occurs at the limb of the Sun, theassociated post-flare coronal loops are found to interact at localized points thatresult in transient brightenings. The time history of such events and theirgeneral morphological characteristics will be studied, as recordedphotographically in the emission of the 5303 A line (FeXIV) and the lowertemperature 6374 A line (FeX), and also in Ha, in an attempt to understand thecomplex physical processes involved.
(7) Peter Tamblyn; L. November, advisor. Mr. Tamblyn will be working with L.November and S. Keil on the reduction and analysis of Sacramento Peak VacuumTower observations that were coordinated with the Space Lab 2 Shuttle SolarOptical and Ultraviolet Polarimeter (SOUP) run in August 1985. The SOUPobservations permitted us to measure for the first time the horizontal flowscaused by the large-scale solar convection. The ground-based experimentprovides both Doppler velocity images and filtergrams in a number of lines fromthe Vacuum Tower Universal Birefringent Filter as well as magnetograms takenwith the Echelle Spectrograph. The ground-based data complement the SOUPexperiment well and give us our first opportunity to study the three-dimensional convective flows and their relationship with the solar magneticstructures.
(8) Teresa Wilson; K. Hinkle, advisor. Ms. Wilson will measure the velocities anddepths of the CO first and second overtone lines of the spectrum of twosymbiotic stars, R Aqr and CH Cyg, on approximately a bimonthly basis. Fromthese measurements the student will assist the advisor in monitoring the motionof the photospheres of the cool star in these symbiotic systems. The main goalis for Ms. Wilson to produce two short papers from the observations of thesetwo stars.
Students participating in NSF's minority-student research program are: NumaLoCascio, H. Jones-advisor; Margarita Pereyda, M. Belton-advisor; and LourdesRamirez, J. Harvey-advisor.
(1) Mr. LoCascio is involved in two activities. The first is to copy and cataloguetapes of all NSO/Tucson full-disk magnetograms for distribution to theNASA/Goddard Data Analysis Center for the Solar Maximum Mission inaccordance with the cooperative agreement between AURA and NASA/GSFC. Heis also processing a large backlog of time-sequences of magnetograms of solaractive regions. This involves spatially registering each of the magnetogramimages, placing them on a common display scale, and recording the result onoptical disk for subsequent video display and review.
(2) Ms. Pereyda has, and is continuing to work on the development of a book on"Time Variable Phenomena in the Jovian System."
(3) Ms. Ramirez has been working on the reduction of data obtained with theVacuum Solar Telescope on Kitt Peak. She has been responsible for standardreduction of daily observations of magnetic fields and 10830 Aspectroheliograms, reduction of special observations in support of NASA rocketflights and solar observing runs on the VLA, and for converting seven-tracktape archived observations to nine-track format.
