1.1 Completed GHRS/2 5731 (The Nature of Gaseous Loops in the Milky Way
Halo)

The High Resolution Spectrograph (Side Two) was used to make
observations of B class star HD121800. This star is in the line of sight of a
loop of gas in the halo of the Milky Way galaxy. A wavelength calibration
image was also taken. The observations were completed as scheduled, and no
anomalies were reported.

1.2 Completed WF/PC-2 5476 (Continuum Snapshots of 3CR Radio Galaxies)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot images of radio galaxy 3C220.1
as part of a continuum survey and to study the galaxy's morphology. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.3 Completed Four Sets of FOS/BL 5444 (A UV Spectral Library of Metal-
Poor Massive Stars)

The FOS (Blue Side) was used for a snapshot program to obtain
ultraviolet spectra of AV396, NS191-67, NS85-67 and NS69-67, all metal-poor
stars in the LMC. It will be useful for stellar atmosphere and stellar
evolution studies. FOS observations 102 and 103 were lost due to a guide star
acquisition failure at 028/1001Z.

1.4 Completed WF/PC-2 5408 (Star Cluster and CNO Abundance in Blue Compact
Galaxies)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the star formation
regions within the low metallicity blue compact galaxy SBS0335-05 to be used
to determine the size, color, and luminosity of imbedded star clusters. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.5 Completed Four Sets of WF/PC-2 5479 (Subarcsecond Structure in Nearby
AGNs)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make snapshot observations of the nearby
active galactic nuclei of IC4329A, NGC-4990, IR1249-131 and MARK372 to study
the interactions between the central engine, the stars, and the interstellar
matter in the AGN. The observations were executed as scheduled, and no
anomalies were noted.

1.6 Completed FOS/RD 5512 (Cores of Early Type Galaxies: Part II)

The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to obtain rotational
profiles and velocity dispersions around the core of galaxy NGC-5757. The

1.7 Completed WF/PC-2 5560 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Calibration: Internal Monitor.
1)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make several internal bias, K-Spot, and flat
calibration observations to monitor the CCD camera electronics, the optical
alignment, and to check for contamination. The observations were completed as
planned, and no anomalies were noted.

1.8 Completed FOS/RD 5441 (The Inner Regions of Quasars: Cycle 4)

The Faint Object Spectrograph (Red Side) was used to make
spectrographic observations of the variable quasar NRAO140. The observations
will be correlated with radio and X-Ray data for this object. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies have been reported.

1.9 Completed WF/PC-2 5629 (WF/PC-2 Cycle 4 Photometric Calibration
Monitor 1C: 4-Chip STD in F170W)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make photometric calibration observations of
the ultraviolet standard star GRW+70D582. The observations were executed as
scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.10 Complete WF/PC-02 5439 (The Calibration of White Dwarf Distance Scale
for Globular Clusters)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of white dwarf WD1327-083 to
help use the cooling sequence of the white dwarf to determine distances. The
observations were executed as planned, and no problems were reported.

1.11 Completed FOS/BL 5314 (The Red Edge of the ZZ Ceti Instability Strip)

The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make ultraviolet
observations of the variable white dwarf, ZZ Ceti class star WD0104-464 to
study its theoretical instability strip. The location of this strip is
uncertain. There was a binary target acquisition failure at 028/0338Z. The
data showed a maximum of only 13 counts in all diodes, with a peak of only
two counts per diode. HSTAR 5108 was written.

1.12 Completed WF/PC-2 5746 (High Spatial Resolution Imaging and
Polarization of AGNs)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make high resolution polarized images of the
AGN within MARK573 to provide information about the central source which is
hidden behind obscuring matter. The observations were completed as planned,
and no problems were reported.

1.13 Completed WF/PC-2 5397 (Determination of the Extragalactic Distance
Scale: Cycle 4 High)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make images of galaxy NGC-3621 to be used in
measuring the periods of Cepheid variable stars within this galaxy. The
observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were noted.

1.14 Completed FOS/BL 5716 (Spectroscopic Observations of Exposed White
Dwarfs )

The Faint Object Spectrograph (Blue Side) was used to make
observations of the "exposed" white dwarf VW-HYI which is a member of a dwarf
nova binary pair, and which is not hidden by an optically thick accretion
disk during the quiescent phase of the dwarf nova's light curve. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were reported.

1.15 Completed Two Sets of FOS/BL 5349 (The UV Interstellar Extinction in
M-31 and M-33)

observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.16 Completed Two Sets of WF/PC-2 5446 (The Nuclei of Nearby S0 and
Spiral Galaxies: A PC Snapshot Imaging)

The WF/PC-2 was used to make observations of the core region of
galaxies NGC-1437A and NGC-4900 to provide statistics on the nuclear cusps,
stellar condensations, and inner stellar disks and dust lanes. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no anomalies were noted.

1.17 Completed FGS 5686 (Ultra High Resolution Studies of AGNs with the
FGS: Cycle 4 Carryover)

The FGS#3 was used in the TRANS mode to make astrometric observations
of AGN NGC-4151 which is known to have a milliarcsec structure in their
nuclei at radio wavelengths. If any structure is found, more observations
will be made to look for signs of suberluminal motion. The observations were
completed as planned, and no problems were reported.

1.18 Completed WF/PC-2 5370 (HST Medium-Deep Survey: Cycle 4 High, High

The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
to make high galactic latitude observations as part of a medium-deep sky
survey. The observations were completed as planned, and no problems were

Radio Jets and Hot Spots)

The Faint Object Camera (f/96 ) was used to make observations of
optical emissions from the jet and hot spots of galaxies NGC-5506. The
observations were completed as planned, and no anomalies were reported.

1.20 Completed Three Sets of WF/PC-2 5091 (GTO High Latitude Parallel
Program: Cycle 4)

The WF/PC-2 was used in parallel with the prime science observations
to make high galactic latitude observations greater than +/-30 degrees. The
observations were executed as scheduled, and no problems were reported.

1.21 Completed Two Sets of GHRS/2 5443 (A Study of Galactic Gas-Phase
Abundance Gradients: Cycle 4 High)

The High Resolution Spectrograph was used to make observations of star
HD151990 at three different wavelengths using the Echelle gratings to help
measure galactic gas-phase abundance. The observations were completed as
planned, and no anomalies were reported.
