    Description: From observations of infrared lines, oxygen and nitrogen abundances of the prototype field horizontal-branch stars HD 109995 and HD 161817, the somewhat similar star HD 64488, and the sharp-lined Population I A stars Theta Leo and HR 6559 have been obtained, as well as carbon abundances of HD 161817 and Theta Leo. The results for HD 161817 may be in accord with the predictions of Sweigart and Mengel (1979) for dredge-up during the previous red-giant stage if the non-LTE effects for the O I lines have been properly accounted for, and those for the C I and N I lines are small. This star and HD 109995 are apparently both oxygen and nitrogen poor to the same degree although their iron abundances differ by 0.3 dex.

    Description: The behavior of the two-point galaxy correlation function in volume-limited subsamples of three complete redshift surveys is investigated. The correlation length is shown to scale approximately as the square root of the distance limit in both the CfA and Southern Sky catalogs, but to be independent of the distance limit in the IRAS sample. This effect is found to be due to factors such as the large positive density fluctuations in the foreground of the optically selected catalogs biasing the correlation length estimate downward, and the brightest galaxies appearing to be more strongly clustered than the mean.

    Description: The detection of high-velocity H I in absorption against the nuclear continuum source in the giant elliptical galaxy NGC 315 is reported. The absorption line is found to be highly blueshifted in the reference frame of the galaxy with a projected velocity toward the galaxy of 490 km/s. The absorption line is very strong (244 + or - 4 mJy), consisting of two components with very narrow velocity widths of 2.5 km/s (FWHM) each and peak optical depths of 0.9 and 0.2. The kinetic temperature must be 150 K if the line widths are due entirely to thermal broadening, while the neutral gas column densities implied are 2-5 x 10 to the 20th hydrogen atoms/sq cm. No OH in absorption was detected in these clouds to a limiting peak optical depth of 0.04, although this result is consistent with either a galactic or extragalactic origin of the clouds. It is suggested that these clouds may have condensed out of a large unobserved galactic halo of gas, or they may reside in or have been captured from the intracluster medium.

    Description: A new model for scaling the outcome of catastrophic collisions from laboratory scale experiments was developed and applied to large bodies where gravitational binding is dominant. This algorithm includes a pressure dependent impact strength which predicts that large asteroids behave as intrinsically strong objects due to compressive loading of overburden throughout their interiors. For small bodies, where the gravitational loading is negligible, this model assumes that the impact strength is independent of size. There was considerable discussion of scaling laws for disruption when these results were presented to one authors colleagues. The pressure strengthening impact strength model was viewed as physically quite plausible; however, it was argued that the impact strength should decrease with increasing size in the size range where gravitational compression is negligible.

    Description: Research on a variety of dynamical processes relevant to the formation of planets, satellites and ring systems is discussed. The main focus is on studies of accretionary formation of early protoplanets using a numerical model, structures and evolution of ring systems and individual bodies within planetary rings, and theories of lunar origin.

    Description: The strongest lines of FeH in the visible spectrum fall in the domain of TiO and ZrO bands. Analysis exists for TiO, but nothing is yet available for the weak but important ZrO lines. Using plate measurements and microphotometer tracings, high dispersion spectra of the following cool stars have been searched for FeH lines: Beta Peg, Mu UMa, Alpha Her, Omicron Cet, Chi Cyg, HR 105, HR 8714, R And, R Cyg, R Cam, T Sgr, R CMi, Cy Cyg, and RU Cam. The strongest FeH lines are unimpressive in R Cyg, where the strong infrared bands of FeH have already been identified. Identification of the blue-green FeH lines in other spectra must be considered inconclusive until a rotational analysis of the FeH spectrum is available.

    Description: The results of a campaign of monitoring HZ Her with the IUE satellite are presented. The spectrum and light variation outside of eclipse are consistent with the Milgrom and Salpeter model for emission from the X-ray heated photosphere of the primary. Near eclipse there is UV flux in excess of the prediction of the heated photosphere model, which shows significant 35 day variations and is consistent with an origin in a precessing disk, as described by Gerend and Boynton. The spectrum shows the strong emission lines of N V and C IV, which generally vary in the sense of the continuum. The N V/C IV ratio is greater than 2 near orbital phase 0.5 and approaches unity near eclipse. It is suggested that these emission lines are optically thick and arise from both the heated photosphere and the accretion disk.

    Description: Lines of the first multiplet of niobium are strong in R And and HR 1105. These lines are also present in other S stars: HR 8714, R Cam, V Cnc, R CMi, and T Sgr. They are also visible in the M stars, Beta-Peg and Mu-UMa. An approximation to the abundance ratio, Nb/Fe, has been deduced from pairs of lines having nearly equal intensity. In R And, the ratio is about 200 times the solar value. It is hoped that good plates will soon be obtained for the near infrared region, so that the significant Nb/Rb abundance ratio may be determined.

    Description: Incontrovertible evidence for neutral H2O as an abundant volatile species in any comet contained in near-infrared airborne spectra of Comet Halley is discussed. The airborne spectra are compared with previous infrared studies of comets and with other investigations of comet Halley. The airborne measurements establish criteria for evaluating the spectroscopic sensitivities of future studies of comets with remote infrared methods.

    Description: A search for gaseous neutral CH4 was conducted in the coma of comet Halley on March 20, 1986 using a Fourier transform spectrometer on the Kuiper Airborne Observatory. In the field-of-view (24,000 km) the CH4 rotational temperature is equal to the kinetic temperature of the coma molecules due to collisions in most of the region and is frozen in at the outer edge. The spectrum of the nu3 band is due to fluorescence with the R(3) to R(5) lines being most suitable for Earth-based observations. Measured upper (3 delta) limits of 4 times 10 to the minus 19th power W/sqcm for these lines lead to a (7 delta) upper limit of 4 times 10 to the 28th power CH4 molecules per second. This value corresponds to 4% of the water vapor production rate at the time of observation.
