    Description: VLBI measurements of time delay and delay rate at 2.29 and 8.42 GHz on baselines of 10,000 km have been used to determine the positions of the milliarcsecond nuclei in 17 extragalactic radio sources with estimated accuracies of 0.1 to 0.3 arcsec. The observed sources are part of an all-sky VLBI catalog of milliarcsecond radio sources. In addition, slightly improved positions are presented for 101 sources originally reported by Morabito et al. (1983). Arcsecond positions have now been determined for 836 sources.

    Description: The 5.2 to 8.0 micron spectra are presented for two planetary nebulae nuclei Hen1044 (He2-113) and CPD-56 8032. The unidentified infrared (UIR) emission bands at 6.2 microns, 6.9 microns, 7.7 microns are present in the spectra of Hen1044 and in CPD-56 8032, and the 8.6 micron band is present in the long wavelength shoulder of the 7.7 micron band in the spectrum of CPD-56 8032. The 8 to 13 micron spectra of these two stars by Aitken et. al. clearly show the presence of the 8.6 micron band in He2-113 while weakly resolving this feature in the spectra of CPD-56 8032. In their spectra the 11.3 micron band is also clearly detected in both objects. The 6.2 micron and 7.7 micron bands are characteristic of the infrared active C-C stretching modes in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs); the 3.3 micron, 8.6 micron, and 11.3 micron bands are respectively assigned to the in-plane stretching mode, the in-plane bending mode, and the out-of-plane bending mode of the aromatic CH bond. The weak 6.9 micron emission feature is attributed to the UIR spectrum by Bregman et. al. The IRAS LRS spectra of He2-113 (IRAS 14562-5406) and CPD-56 8032 (IRAS 17047-5650) are presented. Cohen et. al. identify the broad plateau from 11.3 to 13.0 microns in the spectrum of He2-113 with increased hydrogenation of PAHs. This broad plateau is not seen in the LRS spectrum of CPD-56 8032. Also, He2-113 has greater infrared excess emission in the 17-22 micron region than does CPD-56 8032.

    Description: A large scale 13CO map (containing 33,000 spectra) of the giant molecular cloud located in the southern part of Orion is presented which contains the Orion Nebula, NGC1977, and the LI641 dark cloud complex. The overall structure of the cloud is filamentary, with individual features having a length up to 40 times their width. This morphology may result from the effects of star formation in the region or embedded magnetic fields in the cloud. We suggest a simple picture for the evolution of the Orion-A cloud and the formation of the major filament. A rotating proto-cloud (counter rotating with respect to the galaxy) contians a b-field aligned with the galaxtic plane. The northern protion of this cloud collapsed first, perhaps triggered by the pressure of the Ori I OB association. The magnetic field combined with the anisotropic pressure produced by the OB-association breaks the symmetry of the pancake instability, a filament rather than a disc is produced. The growth of instabilities in the filament formed sub-condensations which are recent sites of star formation.

    Description: Spectrophotometry from 5 to 9 microns (resolution = 0.02) of comet Halley was obtained from the Kuiper Airborne Observatory on 1985 Dec. 12.1 and 1986 April 8.6 and 10.5 UT. Two spectral features are apparent in all the observations, one from 5.24 to 5.6 microns, and the silicate emission feature which has an onset between 7 and 8 microns. There is no evidence for the 7.5 microns feature observed by the Vega 1 spacecraft; the large difference between the areal coverage viewed from the spacecraft and the airplane may explain the discrepancy. Color temperatures significantly higher than a blackbody indicate that small particles are abundant in the coma. Significant spatial and temporal variations in the spectrum show trends similar to those observed from the ground.

    Description: The unidentified infrared (UIR) features are a group of emission bands observed in a variety of objects, which can be characterized as having moderate density gas (densities from 1000 to 1,000,000/cu.cm.) and a nearby ultraviolet source. The origin of the features is still uncertain, but the current evidence points to Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) as the source of the UIR features. Problems with identifying PAHs as the source of the UIR features are discussed.

    Description: Composition and flow parameter of cold heavy ions from the PICCA instrument on Giotto within a cometocentric distance of 50,000 km are presented. A distinct boundary at about 27,000 km, where the flow parameters changed abruptly, is identified and its physical significance is discussed. Radial profiles of heavy ion groups and abundance ratios are given.

    Description: The nearby radio galaxy M87 (Virgo A) is studied with the Einstein X-ray Observatory and the VLA to investigate possible inverse Compton X-ray emission from the 'radio halo'. An asymmetrical X-ray structure is superposed on the dominant symmetrical emission due to the hot interstellar gas, consisting of broad ridges extending about 0.5-5 arcmin E and SW of the nucleus. The radio halo also has prominent structures to the E and SW, probably due to bent jets seen in projection. But comparison of the X-ray and radio maps show the features are not entirely coincident. An inverse Compton origin of the X-ray emission implies the magnetic field of the halo varies between 3 and 8 times below equipartition levels of 2-5 microG. The principal alternative explanation for the asymmetrical X-ray component is that the outflowing jets compress the interstellar medium, causing a local enhancement of thermal X-ray emission.

    Description: The identification of a fifth serendipitous Einstein source with a new BL Lac object in a very luminous galaxy is reported. The resolved component is well fitted by an exponential disk with scale length 18 kpc and absolute magnitude of roughly -24.2. A redshift of 0.237 is derived from stellar absorption features. No emission lines are seen in the 3200-9000 A wavelength range. Decomposition of the optical spectrum into a standard galaxy plus a power law yields a spectral index of 0.5 + or - 0.5, significantly flatter than in the average BL Lac object. Linear polarization of the nonstellar component is about 6 percent in the 4500-7000 A wavelength range. The X-ray flux in the 0.3-3.5 keV band is 1.16 x 10 to the -11th ergs/sq cm/s, corresponding to a luminosity of 3.5 x 10 to the 45th ergs/s . The radio flux density is 85.6 mJy at 20 cm and 54.5 mJy at 6 cm.

    Description: X-ray spectroscopic observations obtained with the Einstein objective grating spectrometer (OGS) and monitor proportional counter (MPC) instruments of three Galactic bulge sources, the globular cluster burst source 1820-30, the burster Serpens X-1, and the GX 9+9 are presented. Joint spectral fits to the OGS and MPC data are consistent for all three sources with either a thermal bremsstrahlung model with temperature ranging from 6 to 10 keV or with a two-component blackbody model, where one component may be associated with the neutron star and one with the accretion disk. The spectra of Serpens X-1 and 1820-30 harden with increases in intensity. The implications of the results for recent models of low-mass X-ray binaries are discussed.

    Description: Cygnus X-2 was observed during 13 separate pointings in the course of 1 yr by the Einstein monitor proportional counter. During one of these pointings the objective grating spectrometer was also used. It is found that the data from these observations are well fitted by single-component thermal bremsstrahlung models with temperatures ranging from 4-12 keV; however, two-component models, where one component is a blackbody, are not excluded. The X-ray light curve appears to be correlated with the 9.843 day optical period, possibly implying a partial eclipse of the X-ray source. During the high states there are irregular dips of up to 30 percent in intensity that last for 300-700 s. The high spectra resolution grating data were taken during one of the high states when these dips occurred, and it is possible to distinguish variable variable emission and absorption features due to Fe, O, and Ne. The picture of Cygnus X-2 is consistent with an intrinsic thermal source surrounded by a hot accretion disk corona. This model can be used to explain the high and low X-ray states, the variability within the states, and the intensity dips which occur in the high states.
