    Description: The axial flow and heating of an argon plasma in a pinched plasma column of a pulsed, linear z-pinch device was experimentally examined with a unique pressure sensing instrument capable of resolving mass flow properties. Transient axial pressure profiles identify periods of intense flow and heating. Mechanisms generating such effects are considered.

    Description: Models for fundamental physical interactions allow for the existence of stable or nearly stable elementary particles much heavier than the proton. Stellar spectra were searched for a positively charged superheavy particle, X(+), which, with a bound electron, should appear as apparently superheavy neutral hydrogen in the interstellar medium. An upper limit for the abundance of X relative to normal hydrogen in the line of sight toward the bright star gamma Cassiopeiae is 2 x 10 to the -8th.

    Description: IUE observations toward 10 stars have shown that zinc is not depleted in the interstellar medium by more than a factor of two, suggesting that its abundance may serve as a tracer of the true metallicity in the gas. A result pertinent to the history of nucleosynthesis in the solar neighborhood is that the local interstellar medium has abundances that appear to be homogeneous to within a factor of two, when integrated over paths of about 500 pc.

    Description: Results are presented from a high-resolution, ultraviolet study of interstellar gas situated away from the plane of the Milky Way Galaxy, using the nuclei of Seyfert galaxies Mkn 509 and F9 as background probes. In these directions, low-velocity, galactic gas were detected as well as two extragalactic clouds, one probably associated with the Magellanic Stream and the other with Mkn 509. These data were combined with results from other lines of sight to show that the ultraviolet species extend about 10 kpc from the plane, assuming the high-latitude gas corotates with the galactic disk. Complimentary observations of the optical Ca II and Na I species suggests that these do not extend as far - perhaps 2 to 3 kpc from the plane. Further, the exceedingly complex velocity structure found only in Magellanic Cloud directions suggests that these sight-lines are not typical of high-latitude gas in general.

    Description: While no completely definitie picture of the local interstellar medium can be presented yet, some general conclusions can be drawn. New UV results are collated with published results to help state the physical properties of the gas. A morphological view of the local medium is given.

    Description: The transient flow generated by a pulsed, megawatt-level, gas-fed arc with an applied magnetic nozzle has been examined with a new design piezoelectric pressure transducer. Sensor thermal conduction and accelerations have been examined and eliminated in the 500 microsec period of plasma flow. Existence of a large magnitude cold gas pressure front of 20 microsec duration has been reconfirmed and its relationship to the following plasma flow of about 200 microsec duration has been examined for the first time. At a point 30 cm from the arc source, initially near vacuum conditions (typically with an arc current of 11.2 kA and 1 tesla applied magnetic field), a pressure pulse of unionized gas with a magnitude of 10,000 N/sq m is followed by plasma flows with nearly constant impact pressure of 1000 N/sq m. Pressure and number density in this plasma region are seen to decrease with applied magnetic field strength.

    Description: A multitude of absorption lines seen shortward of QSO Ly-alpha emission, that cannot be traced to heavy element absorption systems, are assumed to be Ly-alpha lines arising in intervening clouds. Studies of these Ly-alpha clouds, typically done at 1 A or lower resolution, have shown N(H1) approximately equal to 10(exp 13) - 10(exp 17) sq cm and b approximately equal to 35 km/s. Sargent et al 1980, on the basis of a flat pair velocity correlation function (PVCF), argued that these clouds are intergalactic. But Crotts 1989 showed that the strong Ly-alpha lines are spatially clustered. High resolution studies of Webb 1987 and Rauch et al 1992 also report some evidence for weak clustering, but overall such high resolution studies have been rare. A study of the Ly-alpha forest of Q1331 + 170 over x(sub abs) = 1.60 - 2.19 based on 18 km/s resolution data at S/N approximately equal to 15, with metal-line deblending incorporated.

    Description: The evidence that gas exists in the halo of the Galaxy is examined. The likely properties of halo gas intervening between QSOs and the Galaxy are extracted from observations of the galactic halo. The available data discussed include 21-cm observations, optical absorption lines, ultraviolet lines, and X-ray observations. The possible existence of a cosmic ray halo is assessed, and the relationship of galactic size to the extent of the halo is examined. The main physical constraints on the gas in the halo are detailed, including the radiation field, particle density, temperature, mass in the halo gas, and abundances. Models for the gas in the halo are summarized. It appears that the distribution of gas in the galactic halo is an expanded disk not more than 10 kpc thick. At low column densities, the Galaxy could extend out to several times the Holmberg radius. The disk may be photoionized on the outside by the QSO background radiation.

    Description: The line of sight to Beta CM a was probed by Copernicus observations. This particular line of sight is remarkable for the low mean densities. The density was found to be bar N sub H approximately .002/cu cm. Two separate regions were distinguished: (1) A local nearby HI region extends over a few parsecs from the Sun with a density of the order of 0.1/cu cm and a temperature of 11000 to 12500 K; (2) An HII region lies somewhere beyond the HI region and is spread over about 60pc. Its total hydrogen mean density is of the same order as the HI region, i.e., of approximately 0.1 cu cm and it contains only elements in low ionization state. All the ata are coherent with the picture of a cloud in ionization equilibrium at T approximately 23000 deg K.
