    Description: Electronic transition moments of seven C2 singlet and triplet band systems, which are in the 0.2 to 1.2 micron spectral region, have been measured. The measurements were made in emission behind incident shock waves in C2H2-argon mixtures. Narrow band-pass radiometers were used to obtain absolute measurements of shock-excited C2 radiation from which absolute electronic transition moments are derived by a synthetic spectrum analysis. New results are reported for the Ballik-Ramsay, Phillips, Swan, Deslandres-d'Azambuja, Fox-Herzberg, Mulliken, and Freymark systems.

    Description: Absolute transition-probability parameters are reported for seven band systems of the C2 molecule. These include all the known C2 band systems in the spectral region between 0.2 and 1.2 microns with the exception of the Messerle-Krauss system. To obtain the data, absolute intensities of selected spectral regions were measured behind the incident shock wave in a combustion-driven shock tube containing 85% Ar and 15% C2H2. These measurements were converted into electronic transition moments by a synthetic spectrum analysis. The electronic transition moments were then used to determine extensive tables of the transition-probability parameters for each of the band systems measured.

    Description: Intensity parameters for the vibration-rotation bands of ClO were calculated by evaluating matrix elements of the vibrational eigenfunctions using the theoretical dipole moment curve. These vibrational eigenfunctions are based on realistic Klein-Dunham potentials deduced from experimental values (Coxon et al, 1976) for certain vibrational energy levels. The data can be applied to the interpretation of remote or in situ experiments to deduce stratospheric ClO concentrations from vibration-rotation absorption spectra.

    Description: Decrease in stratospheric ozone absorption and increase in oxygen absorption with decreasing wavelength combine to produce a window of maximum atmospheric transmission near 210 nm. Since solar radiation in this spectral region dissociates molecular oxygen, the deep atmospheric penetration at this wavelength is of particular aeronomical interest. High resolution calculations of the transmittance down to 28.65 km were made for the 200-243-nm spectral range in this window region, in support of a stratospheric balloon flight from Fort Churchill in July 1974. The calculations were made by dividing the atmosphere into layers which were chosen so that each could be assumed homogeneous; optical depths were calculated separately for each of these layers and then summed to obtain the over-all transmittance of the atmosphere. Absorption by molecular oxygen (line and continuum) and by ozone was included, as well as extinction through Rayleigh scattering by air molecules. The calculated transmittances were combined with high altitude (above 100-km) rocket measurements of the sun-center spectrum and center-to-limb variations to give residual high resolution solar spectral flux for several altitudes and solar zenith angles.

    Description: The periodic spectroscopic events in Eta Carinae are now well established and occur near the periastron passage of two massive stars in a very eccentric orbit. Several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the variations of different spectral features, such as an eclipse by the wind-wind collision boundary, a shell ejection from the primary star or accretion of its wind onto the secondary. All of them have problems explaining all the observed phenomena. To better understand the nature of the cyclic events we performed a dense monitoring of Eta Carinae with 5 Southern telescopes during the 2009 low excitation event, resulting in a set of data of unprecedented quality and sampling. The intrinsic luminosity of the He II lambda-4686 emission line (L approx 310 solar L) just before periastron reveals the presence of a very luminous transient source of extreme UV radiation emitted in the wind-wind collision (WWC) region. Clumps in the primary's wind probably explain the flare-like behavior of both the X-ray and He II lambda-4686 light-curves. After a short-lived minimum, He II lambda-4686 emission rises again to a new maximum, when X-rays are still absent or very weak. We interpret this as a collapse of the WWC onto the "surface" of the secondary star, switching off the hard X-ray source and diminishing the WWC shock cone. The recovery from this state is controlled by the momentum balance between the secondary's wind and the clumps in the primary's wind.

    Description: The extensive computation time required for the numerical integration of the differential equations obtained in studies of the concentrations of pollutants emitted by gas turbine combustors, can be reduced significantly by assuming the heat releasing hydrocarbon reactions to be in local equilibrium. In determining the CO and NO concentrations produced in spray combustion, it is, therefore, tempting to use the same local equilibrium assumption in order to simplify the kinetic calculations. An investigation of the validity of the local equilibrium assumption is conducted by using a simple analytical model, and then by actually carrying out the kinetic and local equilibrium calculations for typical case.

    Description: A detailed qualitative analysis of the processes leading to the explosive ignition of a reactive liquid droplet that is suspended in a gas-phase oxidizer and subjected to the passage of a shock wave, is presented. The interval of time between shock wave passage and ignition is described by identifying a two-stage process which consists of a period of relative reactive dormancy that is followed by a chemical induction period leading to the thermal explosion of reactant that has been stripped from the liquid drop, vaporized, and mixed with the gas-phase oxidizer. The results of first-order calculations based on this model are presented and compared with experimental data for diethlcyclohexane drops in oxygen.

    Description: The paper is concerned with magnesium powder ignition caused by the interaction of powder with incident shock wave-induced flows. Experimentally observed ignition delays are correlated with predicted times for particle melting and the onset of thermal erosion, and a good agreement is found between experiment and theory. Ignition delays were measured as functions of particle screening, cloud concentration, incident shock strength, initial pressure, and oxygen concentration (diluted with nitrogen). An expression for the Nusselt number in the Reynolds number range 0-10,000 and the Mach number range 0-6 is proposed. The expression, when applied to predict particle behavior, provides results in agreement with experimental data for M/Re less than 0.5.

    Description: A research gas turbine combustor was operated under realistic conditions such that the influence of individual variables (in particular, fuel spray characteristics) on emissions could be determined. The special combustor allows independent control over drop size, fuel-air ratio, air inlet temperature, pressure, reference velocity, and residence time. Also, it lends itself to theoretical modeling and turbulent intensity measurements through use of laser velocimetry. Emission results for a range of operations are presented. A number of graphs show which show the variations of emissions levels with one variable at a time are included. In every case, the fuel is jet A, the pressure is atmospheric, and combustion is limited to a primary zone.

    Description: We investigated the local- and regional-scale thermodynamical and dynamical environments associated with intense convective systems in West Africa during 2003. We identified convective system cases from TRMM microwave imagery, classifying each case by the system minimum 85-GHz brightness temperature and by the estimated elapsed time of propagation from high terrain. The speed of the mid-level jet, the magnitude of the low-level shear, and the surface equivalent potential temperature (theta(sub e)) were greater for the intense cases compared to the non-intense cases, although the differences between the means tended to be small, less than 3K for surface theta(sub e). Hypothesis testing of a series of commonly used intensity prediction metrics resulted in significant results only for low-level metrics such as convective available potential energy and not for any of the mid- or upper-level metrics such as 700-hPa theta(sub e). None of the environmental variables or intensity metrics by themselves or in combination appeared to be reliable direct predictors of intensity. In the regional scale analysis, the majority of intense convective systems occurred in the surface baroclinic zone where surface theta(sub e) exceeded 344 K and the 700-hPa zonal wind speeds were less than -6/ms. Fewer intense cases compared to non-intense cases were associated with African easterly wave troughs. Fewer than 25% of our cases occurred in environments with detectable Saharan dust loads, and the results for intense and non-intense cases were similar. Our results for the regional analysis were consistent with the seasonal movement of the WAM and the intertropical front, regional differences in topography, and AEW energetics.
