PASP Associate Editor for Instrumentation

For the past 10 years Dr. J. B. Oke has served the PASP and the community as the Associate Editor for Instrumentation. For personal reasons he has asked to step down, and in consultation with him we sought a new PASP Associate Editor for Instrumentation. We are delighted to announce that the ASP Board of Directors has endorsed the appointment of two extremely wellqualified astronomers to share the responsibility of this position. They are Dr. Daniel Fabricant of the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Dr. Harland Epps of UCO/Lick Observatory, University of California, Santa Cruz. Both have been involved in numerous instrumentation projects and have also been regular contributors to the PASP. The transition to the new Associate Editors for Instrumentation will begin immediately. Dr. Oke has agreed to continue to handle the manuscripts he is now working with, but all new instrumentation papers will be transferred to the new editors. Authors should continue to submit their astronomical instrumentation papers to the PASP ftp site in Victoria (see the instructions at http://pasp.phys.uvic.ca). Similarly, any hardcopy manuscripts should be sent to the main office in Victoria:
