    The excitation and distribution of CO (J = 6-5) emission in the Orion Nebula (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Observations of the 691-GHz (J = 6-5) transition of CO in the BN/KL region of Orion obtained in February 1981, at the IR Telescope Facility at Mauna Kea are reported. The system employs a heterodyne receiver with an overall noise temperature of 3900 K DSB at 432 microns, 64 5-MHz IF-filter-bank channels, and a chopping secondary with 120-arcsec excursion, and has 35-arcsec resolution. Sample data are presented graphically and analyzed using a rate equation and a kinetic model. A 35 x 45-arcsec core with hot broad plateau emission (antenna temperature 180 + or - 36 K) surrounded by an area of strong narrow-line 120-K emission is found. It is suggested that the plateau emission originates in a wide thin sheet after a shock wave, with H2 density at least 10 to the 6th/cu cm and gas kinetic temperature greater than 500 K.

    Magnetospheres and winds of the helium strong stars: Dependence on rotation (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: Large aperture, low resolution spectra of 24 stars of types 05, 04, and 03 were obtained, and from these the energy distribution between 1200 and 3200 angstrom was derived in absolute units. The energies were combined with energies deduced from uvby and UBV photometry and corrected for interstellar extinction. Angular diameters and effective temperatures are also derived. The effective temperatures range from 24800K to 63000K. There is no correlation between effective temperature and spectral type or luminosity class for the early 0 stars. The size of the expected errors are also studied.

    Distribution of gas in the halo of the galaxy (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    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.

    On the detection of other planetary systems by astrometric techniques (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: A quantitative method for astrometrically detecting perturbations induced in a star's motion by the presence of a planetary object is described. A periodogram is defined, wherein signals observed from a star show exactly periodic variations, which can be extracted from observational data using purely statistical methods. A detection threshold is defined for the frequency of occurrence of some detectable signal, e.g., the Nyquist frequency. Possible effects of a stellar orbital eccentricity and multiple companions are discussed, noting that assumption of a circular orbit assures the spectral purity of the signal described. The periodogram technique was applied to 12 yr of astrometric data from the U.S. Naval Observatory for three stars with low mass stellar companions. Periodic perturbations were confirmed. A comparison of the accuracy of different astrometric systems shows that the detection accuracy of a system is determined by the measurement accuracy and the number of observations, although the detection efficiency can be maximized by minimizing the number of data points for the case when observational errors are proportional to the square root of the number of data points. It is suggested that a space-based astrometric telescope is best suited to take advantage of the method.

    IUE observations of lines of sight with peculiar ultraviolet extinction (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: Low resolution IUE data were used to derive UV extinction curves for a group of stars known to have peculiar extinction parameters from ANS data. The resulting curves have a wide range of appearances. Although the ratio E(BUMP)/E(B-V) differs by a factor of three in the extreme cases, the wavelength of maximum absorption does not appear to change. No evidence for new fine structure in UV extinction was found. The structure near 62 micrometers in the existing mean extinction curves appears to be the result of luminosity mismatch errors. The new extinction curves have shapes that separate into two distinct classes; those associated with clear field extinction and those associated with extinction in dense nebular environments. The range of variation in the curves is so large, the common practice of ironing out the bump can produce enormous errors in the resultant UV energy distributions when E(B-V) 0.3.

    Coordinated observations of Markarian 501 at ultraviolet, X-ray, optical, and radio wavelengths (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The results of multifrequency observations of MrK 501 = B2 1652+39 are presented here. It is a BL Lac object embedded in a giant elliptical galaxy obtained during the period August 1980 - March 1981. It is argued that MrK 501 varies sufficiently slowly at ultraviolet, optical and radio wavelengths on time scales of months that the data are representative of a spectrum obtained at a single epoch. The importance of MrK 501 derives mostly from its association of a quasar-like object with a galaxy whose absorption-line redshift (z = 0.034) unambiguously determines its distance. This implies that physical conditions within this local quasar can be discussed without the confusion introduced by distance uncertainties.

    Description: The results of multifrequency observations of MrK 180 = 1133+704, a BL Lac object embedded in a giant elliptical galaxy are presented. The importance of MrK 180 derives mostly from its association of a quasar-like object with a galaxy whose absorption line redshift (z = 0.046) unambiguously determines its distance. This implies that physical conditions within this local quasar can be discussed without the confusion introduced by distance uncertainties.

    Einstein observations of the 1978 November 19 gamma ray burst source field (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: It is pointed out that several years after the discovery of cosmic gamma ray bursts (GRB) their sources have not yet been identified, although searches have been conducted in optical, X-ray, and radio wavelengths. The three smallest error boxes are now related to the events of Mar. 5, 1979, Apr. 6, 1979, and Nov. 19, 1978. X-ray observations, with the Imaging Proportional Counter (IPC) of the Einstein Observatory, were made for all three locations. A description is presented of the results of the 8200 second IPC observation of the Nov. 19, 1978 GRB, made on July 1 and 2, 1980. Three sources were detected. However, two of them were outside the GRB error box. The third source is located well inside the burst error box.
