    Notes: Conclusions We have attempted to model “bumps” in the light and radial velocity curves of the Beta Cephei star BW Vulpeculae. Two mechanisms, a resonance phenomena and non-linear pulsations, were investigated. The resonance condition was clearly not fulfilled, the calculated period ratio being approximately 0.60, where a value of 0.50 ± 0.03 is required for resonance. In the non-linear calculation, the bump appears, with the correct phase, but was found at an amplitude that is too large. Further, the light curve does not show any bump-like feature. The cause of the bump is the large spurious boost given the star's velocity field by the solution methods. The calculated periods of the stellar models are shorter than those of previous calculations, enhancing the possibility that these stars pulsate in a radial fundamental mode.

    Description: From a thorough modeling of the altitude profile of meteoritic ionization in the Martian atmosphere we deduce that a persistent layer of magnesium ions should exist around an altitude of 70 km. Based on current estimates of the meteoroid mass flux density, a peak ion density of about 10(exp 4) ions/cm is predicted. Allowing for the uncertainties in all of the model parameters, this value is probably within an order of magnitude of the correct density. Of these parameters, the peak density is most sensitive to the meteoroid mass flux density which directly determines the ablated line density into a source function for Mg. Unlike the terrestrial case, where the metallic ion production is dominated by charge-exchange of the deposited neutral Mg with the ambient ions, Mg+ in the Martian atmosphere is produced predominantly by photoionization. The low ultraviolet absorption of the Martian atmosphere makes Mars an excellent laboratory in which to study meteoric ablation. Resonance lines not seen in the spectra of terrestrial meteors may be visible to a surface observatory in the Martian highlands.

    Description: While supergranules, a component of solar convection, have been well studied through the use of Dopplergrams, other datasets also exhibit these features. Quiet Sun magnetograms show local magnetic field elements distributed around the boundaries of supergranule cells, notably clustering at the common apex points of adjacent cells, while more solid cellular features are seen near active regions. Ca II K images are notable for exhibiting the chromospheric network representing a cellular distribution of local magnetic field lines across the solar disk that coincides with supergranulation boundaries. Measurements at 304 A further above the solar surface also show a similar pattern to the chromospheric network, but the boundaries are more nebulous in nature. While previous observations of these different solar features were obtained with a variety of instruments, SDO provides a single platform, from which the relevant data products at a high cadence and high-definition image quality are delivered. The images may also be cross-referenced due to their coincidental time of observation. We present images of these different solar features from HMI & AIA and use them to make composite images of supergranules at different atmospheric layers in which they manifest. We also compare each data product to equivalent data from previous observations, for example HMI magnetograms with those from MDI.

    Description: Throughout much of the terrestrial thermosphere and ionosphere, the motions of the neutral and ionized constituents are closely coupled and relative velocities are small, of the order of 100 m/s or less. This is particularly true at midlatitudes to low latitudes where typical velocities in the neutral gas due to tidal forcing are only 20-50 m/s. However, the solar wind-magnetosphere interaction drives a large-scale convection pattern in the polar ionosphere. When the rapid adjustment of the plasma to changes in the solar wind is combined with the slower response of the more massive neutral gas, large relative velocities on the order of 1 km/s can exist for substantial lengths of time. This will be more common during periods of high geomagnetic activity, as a result of the greater number of magnetic substorms and other particle precipitation events. When a significant relative velocity is present, the calculation of interaction parameters of the two gases passing through each other, such as collision frequency, must include that velocity. These effects are usually neglected when interpreting wind and ion drift observations. We show how the collision frequency is affected by a directed velocity between any two gases interacting with a power law or exponential potential energy curved. The directed velocity increases the collision frequency at all temperatures for most ion-neutral interactions. For certain power law potentials, such as the charge quadrupole, the collision frequency is decreased. We present an analytic solution for the high-speed collision integral using the resonance charge exchange cross section.

    Description: The Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) was launched on February 11,2010 into partly cloudy skies over Cape Canaveral, Florida. SDO moved into a 28 degree inclined geosynchronous orbit over the longitude of the ground station in New Mexico. SDO is the first Space Weather Mission in NASA's Living With a Star Program. SDO's main goal is to understand and predict those solar variations that influence life on Earth and our technological systems. The SDO science investigations will determine how the Sun's magnetic field is generated and structured, how this stored magnetic energy is released into the heliosphere as the solar wind, energetic particles, and variations in the solar irradiance. The SDO mission consists of three scientific investigations (AIA, EVE, and HMI), a spacecraft bus, and a dedicated Ka-band ground station to handle the 150 Mbps data flow. SDO continues a long tradition of NASA missions providing calibrated solar spectral irradiance data, in this case using multiple measurements of the irradiance and rocket underflights of the spacecraft. The other instruments on SDO will be used to explain and develop predictive models of the solar spectral irradiance in the extreme ultraviolet. Science teams at LMSAL, LASP, and Stanford are responsible for processing, analyzing, distributing, and archiving the science data. We will talk about the building of SDO, its launch, and the data and science it will provide to NASA.

    Description: Among the processes governing the energy balance in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (mlt), the quenching of CO2(N2) vibrational levels by collisions with oxygen atoms plays an important role. However, the k(CO2-O) values measured in the lab and retrieved from atmospheric measurements vary from 1.5 x 10(exp -12) cubic centimeters per second through 9.0 x 10(exp -12) cubic centimeters per second that requires further studying. In this work we used synergistic data from a ground based lidar and a satellite infrared radiometer to estimate K(CO2-O). We used the night- and daytime temperatures between 80 and 110 km measured by the colorado state university narrow-band sodium (Na) lidar located at fort collins, colorado (41N, 255E) as ground truth of the saber/timed nearly simultaneous (plus or minus 10 minutes) and common volume (within plus or minus 1 degree in latitude, plus or minus 2 degrees in longitude) observations. For each altitude in 80-110 km interval we estimate an "optimal" value of K(CO2-O) needed to minimize the discrepancy between the simulated 15 mm CO2 radiance and that measured by the saber/timed instrument. The K(CO2-O) obtained in this way varies in altitude from 3.5 x 10(exp -12) cubic centimeters per second at 80 km to 5.2 x 10(exp -12) cubic centimeters pers second for altitudes above 95 km. We discuss this variation of the rate constant and its impact on temperature retrievals from 15 mm radiance measurements and on the energy budget of mlt.
