    Description: A new class of X-ray-luminous 'yellow' stellar objects which contributes significantly to the stellar log N-log S distribution, but which cannot be reconciled with normal G and K main-sequence stars. This identification results from a new analysis of the stellar content of three samples of X-ray-selected X-ray sources observed with the Einstein Observatory, namely the 'Medium Sensitivity Survey', the 'High Sensitivity Survey', and the 'Hyades Region Survey'. In this paper, both X-ray and optical properties of the stellar samples in these surveys are reported. The actual stellar content of the surveys is compared with predictions based on current knowledge of stellar X-ray luminosity functions and the stellar composition and spatial distribution in the Galaxy. It is shown that a plausible identification for the excess population of 'yellow' stars is with the active, RS CVn-like binaries.

    Description: Observations of the low-mass binary X-ray source Cyg X-2 taken over a five-year period using instruments on OSO 8, HEAO 1, and Einstein are presented. Irregular changes in intensity of up to 60 percent on time scales ranging from minutes to days are seen. The source appears to have long-term low-luminosity states during which dips lasting about three days occur. When these long dips occur, they always appear at the same phase in the optically determined 9.8-day orbital period. There are three distinct types of short-term dips distinguished by differing correlations between spectral hardness and intensity.

    Description: During observations of SN 1987A 286 days after the supernova explosion using a JPL high-resolution gamma-ray spectrometer, a line feature was found in the net supernova spectrum at an energy of 1240.8 + or - 1.7 keV, with an intrinsic width of 8.2 + or - 3.4 keV FWHM, and a net flux of 0.0021 + or - 0.0007 photons/sq cm per s. This feature is interpreted as the 1238 keV line from the decay of Co-56 in the supernova remnant. The blueshift and intrinsic broadening of the 1238 keV line are consistent with models incorporating mixing of the radioactive cobalt in the expanding eject.

    Description: IRAS 09104 + 4109 is the most luminous object yet discovered by means of the IRAS survey. It is identified with a cD galaxy having a strong emission-line spectrum at a redshift of 0.442 and emits 6 x 10 to the 12th solar luminosities/sq h, 99 percent of which emerges at infrared wavelengths. One component of a double radio source is coincident with the center of the galaxy. The high luminosity of this source may be related to an interaction with one or more members of the rich cluster in which it lies. There is a secondary peak in the emission-line image of the galaxy. Emission lines from both regions are broad but narrower than those characteristic of the only other objects known to have such high luminosities, such as Seyfert 1's and QSOs. It is suggested that the strong infrared excess of IRAS 09104 + 4109 is produced by dust obscuring a broad line region.

    Description: The paper reports the results of an extensive X-ray study of the Hyades region and improves on previous studies by using refined X-ray source detection algorithms and the complete set of Einstein Observatory IPC exposures covering the Hyades cluster region (a total of 63 1 x 1 deg images). Maximum likelihood integral X-ray luminosity functions were computed for the Hyades stars for given color index (B-V) ranges. The present results agree substantially with a previous survey about the ubiquity of the stellar activity in the Hyades cluster, especially among solar-type stars. The result of Stern et al. (1981) that stellar X-ray emission is dependent on stellar age is confrimed.

    Description: The spectral properties of CO in various ices are presented. Included are peak positions, FWHMs, band profiles, and integrated absorbances of the CO fundamental at 2137/cm in different ices under various conditions. The results reveal that good quality moderate-resolution spectra of the interstellar CO feature can be used to unravel the composition, temperature, and thermal history of interstellar and cometary ices containing CO.

    Description: A catalog describing the characteristics of all the interplanetary type III storms observed at kilometric wavelengths by the radio astronomy experiment on the ISEE-3 spacecraft between September 1978 and October 1982 is presented. Three-dimensional trajectories have been determined for about one-third of these storms using radio techniques. Solar coordinate and solar wind parameters derived from the trajectories are also tabulated. A statistical summary of the data is included.

    Description: The highly polarized, quiescent quasar OI 287 has been observed with high resolution at 2 cm and 6 cm in an effort to determine the origin of some of the object's peculiar properties. The results seem to rule out the classification of OI 287 as a blazar. Extrapolation of the radio core spectrum to midinfrared wavelengths fails to predict the infrared flux by at least an order of magnitude. This supports the conclusion that the infrared emission and the radio emission do not originate in the same synchrotron-emitting component. The high optical polarization could be related to possible broad absorption lines in the unobserved UV regime, or it could be caused by reflection into the line of sight by scattering agents distributed in a thin disk.

    Description: The process of axion emission from SN 1987A by nucleon-nucleon axion bremsstrahlung is investigated based on neutrino observations. The results indicate that the axion luminosity must be less than about 10 to the 53rd erg/s if: (1) axions couple very weakly (with an axion mass of less than about 0.75 x 10 to the -3rd); or (2) axions couple strongly enough to be trapped and radiated from an axion sphere with T sub a of less than about 8 MeV (with an axion mass of greater than about 2.2 eV). Axion trapping is found to occur for axion masses of greater than about 0.016 eV.

    Description: This paper presents new measurements of the microwave flux of Ceres obtained at wavelengths between 3.3 mm and 20 cm using the 12 m Kitt Peak antenna and the Very Large Array. These new measurements are combined with previous measurements to confirm a substantial decrease in flux density at centimeter wavelengths compared to millimeter wavelength. Using a statistical technique adapted from terrestrial microwave remote sensing, this spectrum has been compared with that of various candidate materials and models for the subsurface structure of Ceres. It is concluded that Ceres is largely covered with a 3-cm-thick layer whose dielectric properties resemble dry terrestrial clay. This layer may have formed by micrometeorite impact on hydrothermally altered basic or ultrabasic rock or on carbonaceous chondrite material.
