    Etching of moldavities under natural conditions (1983)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: The hypothesis that a part of the lechatellierites which originated by etching from a basic moldavite mass became broken off after deposition of moldavite in the sedimentation layer is advanced. Those found close to the original moldavite were measured for statistical averaging of length. The average length of lechatelierite fibers per cubic mm of moldavite mass volume was determined by measurement under a microscope in toluene. The data were used to calculate the depth of the moldavite layer that had to be etched to produce the corresponding amount of lechatelierite fragments. The calculations from five "fields" of moldavite surface, where layers of fixed lechatelierite fragments were preserved, produced values of 2.0, 3.1, 3.5, 3.9 and 4.5. Due to inadvertent loss of some fragments the determined values are somewhat lower than those found in references. The difference may be explained by the fact that the depth of the layer is only that caused by etching after moldavite deposition.

    The Tunguska event - No cometary signature in evidence (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: It is suggested that existing data on the 1908 Tunguska fall precludes an interpretation of the object as an either active or extinct comet fragment. Because a fireball of the Tunguska mass is not efficiently decelerated by the earth's atmosphere, it would at an entry velocity of about 30 km/sec have had to resist aerodynamic pressures greater than one billon dyn/sq cm before disintegrating. The inherently extremely fragile cometary material could not have survived a load of this magnitude. The data on Type II fireballs with prominent terminal flares are extrapolated, to estimate Tunguska's critical dynamic pressure at the same time of explosion as being of the order of 200 million dyn/sq cm, and its preexplosion velocity as about 10 km/sec, thereby ruling out a comet-like orbit. The Tunguska object is most consistently described as a small Apollo-type asteroid, 90-190 m across.

    Control - Demands mushroom as station grows (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The NASA space station, which is presently in the planning stage, is to be composed of both rigid and nonrigid modules, rotating elements, and flexible appendages subjected to environmental disturbances from the earth's atmospheric gravity gradient, and magnetic field, as well as solar radiation and self-generated disturbances. Control functions, which will originally include attitude control, docking and berthing control, and system monitoring and management, will with evolving mission objectives come to encompass such control functions as articulation control, autonomous navigation, space traffic control, and large space structure control. Attention is given to the advancements in modular, distributed, and adaptive control methods, as well as system identification and hardware fault tolerance techniques, which will be required.

    Lightning generation in planetary atmospheres (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The possibilities of lightning generation on other planets are considered, and the basic conditions that exist in terrestrial clouds during lightning discharges and the various theories of charge separation are reviewed. The properties of terrestrial clouds that produce lightning, the properties of lightning itself, and the fairweather field are first reviewed. The general requirements and the different proposed charging mechanisms for electrification of terrestrial clouds are discussed. The mechanisms of electrical breakdown and whistler production are considered, and recent observations of extraterrestrial lightning and of clouds on other planetary bodies are summarized. Circumstances likely to account for lightning activity on Jupiter and Venus and for electrical activity on Mars and in the rings of Saturn are discussed.

    Rubber-toughened polyfunctional epoxies - Brominated vs nonbrominated formulated for graphite composites (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: A new, commercially available, trifunctional epoxy resin (tris-(hydroxyphenyl)-methane triglycidyl ether) was modified with synthetic rubber to increase the impact resistance of epoxy/graphite composites. These composites were reinforced with commercially available satin-weave carbon cloth using two formulations of epoxies (brominated and nonbrominated) containing various amounts of carboxy-terminated butadience acrylonitrile (CTBN) rubber that had been prereacted with epoxy resin. The impact resistance was determined by measuring the interlaminar shear strength of the composites after impact. The mechanical properties, such as flexural strength and modulus at room temperature and at 93 C, were also determined. Measurements were taken of the flammability and glass transition temperature (Tg); and a thermal-gravimetric analysis was made.

    The structure and phase of cloud tops as observed by polarization lidar (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: High-resolution observations of the structure of cloud tops have been obtained with polarization lidar operated from a high altitude aircraft. Case studies of measurements acquired from cumuliform cloud systems are presented, two from September 1979 observations in the area of Florida and adjacent waters and a third during the May 1981 CCOPE experiment in southeast Montana. Accurate cloud top height structure and relative density of hydrometers are obtained from the lidar return signal intensity. Correlation between the signal return intensity and active updrafts was noted. Thin cirrus overlying developing turrets was observed in some cases. Typical values of the observed backscatter cross section were 0.1-5 (km/sr) for cumulonimbus tops. The depolarization ratio of the lidar signals was a function of the thermodynamic phase of cloud top areas. An increase of the cloud top depolarization with decreasing temperature was found for temperatures above and below -40 C.

    Polyfunctional epoxies - Different molecular weights of brominated polymeric additives as flame retardants in graphite composites (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The imparting of flame retardancy to graphite-reinforced composites without incurring mechanical property deterioration is investigated for the case of an experimental, trifunctional epoxy resin incorporating brominated polymeric additives (BPAs) of the diglycidyl type. Such mechanical properties as flexural strength and modulus, and short beam shear strength, were measured in dry and in hot/wet conditions, and the glass transition temperature, flammability, and water absorption were measured and compared with nonbromilated systems. Another comparison was made with a tetrafunctional epoxy system. The results obtained are explained in terms of differences in the polymeric backbone length of the bromine carrier polymer. BPAs are found to be a reliable bromine source for fire inhibition in carbon-reinforced composites without compromise of mechanical properties.

    Purely coronal flare-like variations (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Quasiperiodic X-ray, UV, microwave, and metric-wave variations after a solar flare on November 6, 1980 are reported and analyzed, based on observational data from SMM (HXRBS, UVSP, HXIS), GOES-2, the 100-m radiotelescope at Bonn, and the Nancay radioheliograph. The maxima of the 13 brightenings observed are listed and characterized; a comparison is made with a 'normal' flare at 17:26 UT on the same day. The HXIS and UVSP data are discussed in terms of the physical properties, X-ray flux, O V flux, and H-alpha flux. The variations are found to be mainly thermal and purely coronal, with no chromospheric (H-alpha) participation (in contrast to the 17:26 flare). Since strong X-ray emissions were observed which should have involved the chromosphere through magnetic-field-line heat conduction, it is proposed that the variations wre produced ina coronal plasmoid magnetically separate from the chromosphere. A mechanism for the evolution of such a plasmoid from the upper loops of a giant X-ray arch is discussed. An iterative HXIS-image-deconvolution process is presented in an appendix.
