this is a sollicited proposal to use isocam.s cvf filters as a follow up of several observations already performed using only isocam discrete filters. the main justification for using the cvf to repeat a number of already existing filter observations is to facilitate the understanding of the photometry obtained with isocam.s discrete filters by being able to assess the relative contribution of pahs, h2, and continuum emission within the bandpass of the filters. a small consortium led by diego cesarsky was organized, including some ten astronomers from france, germany, italy, holland and the usa to define the r^ant supplementary observations and to carry out the data reduction; the list is presented below as participating co-is. each co-i may invite a student or colleague of his/her to join the isocam cvf consortium. when applicable, the pi of the proposal that led to these observations will be invited to join the consortium. the iso products will be made available to the general community one month after their reception by the consortium pi. the data will be made available in the ftp area to be created and advertised in the orsay iso centre web page (url http://iscam1.station.fr)

Mission Description
The Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) was the worlds first true orbiting infrared observatory. Equipped with four highly-sophisticated and versatile scientific instruments, it was launched by Ariane in November 1995 and provided astronomers world-wide with a facility of unprecedented sensitivity and capabilities for a detailed exploration of the Universe at infrared wavelengths.
