This award will support collaborative research between                          Profs. Raynor L. Duncombe and Paul D. Hemenway, of the                          University of Texas in Austin, and Dr. Jean                                     Kovalevsky, of the Centre d' Etudes et de Recherches                            Geodynamiques et Astronomiques (C.E.R.G.A.), Grasse,                            France, in the area of astronomical calibration.  In                            particular, observations of minor planet positions and                          dynamics are to be made, with the intent of uncovering                          systematic errors in the body of knowledge of star                              positions and motions called the Fundamental System.                            These measurements are to be undertaken in conjunction                          with the imminent launch of the European Space                                  Agency's High Precision Parallax Collecting Satellite,                          the position and orientation of which cannot be                                 established by measurements from the satellite itself.                                                                                                          The measurement program to be pursued represents an                             effective coordination of an observational program of                           minor planet dynamics with international efforts to                             form a universal reference coordinate system.                                   Observations of the minor planets will be made at                               C.E.R.G.A. and at Austin, with the latter observations                          providing reference positions for the former                                    observations.  The award will also provide support for                          travel to HIPPARCOS working group meetings, to assure                           effective coordination with the project as a whole.
