    A study of HII regions in spiral galaxies using multiobject spectroscopy (1990)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: Multiobject spectroscopy results of HII regions in nearby late-type spiral galaxies are given. Results include excitation measurements, log ((O III)/H beta), for 81 regions in M 101, 30 regions in NGC 2403, and 13 regions in M 51. Researchers conclude that late-type spirals can be classified into two distinct populations, examine possible causes of this division, and derive metallicity gradients for these galaxies. M 51 appears to have an anomalously shallow abundance gradient.

    The dynamics of Abell 2634 (1993)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: We have amassed a large sample of velocity data for the cluster of galaxies Abell 2634 which contains the wide-angle tail (WAT) radio source 3C 465. Robust indicators of location and scale and their confidence intervals are used to determine if the cD galaxy, containing the WAT, has a significant peculiar motion. We find a cD peculiar radial velocity of 219 plus or minus 98 km s(exp -1). Further dynamical analyses, including substructure and normality tests, suggest that A 2634 is an unrelaxed cluster whose radio source structure may be bent by the turbulent gas of a recent cluster-subcluster merger.

    Manufacture of large glass honeycomb mirrors (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The problem of making very large glass mirrors for astronomical telescopes is examined, and the advantages of honeycomb mirrors made of borosilicate glass are discussed. Thermal gradients in the glass that degrade the figure of thick borosilicate mirrors during use can be largely eliminated in a honeycomb structure by internal ventilation (in air) or careful control of the radiation environment (in space). It is expected that ground-based telescopes with honeycomb mirrors will give better images than those with solid mirrors. Materials, techniques, and the experience that has been gained making trial mirrors and test castings as part of a program to develop 8-10-m-diameter lightweight mirrors are discussed.

    Optical matching for fiber optic spectroscopy (1984)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: Single silica fibers of the type developed for communications are useful in the design of astronomical spectrographs. They can be used to couple light from many objects over a wide field to a single spectrograph, or to eliminate wavelength errors from image motion and gravitational flexure. For many applications it will be advantageous to use small lenses to make the most efficient coupling into and out of a fiber. If the telescope pupil is imaged on the fiber core, an efficient coupling can be made that preserves image size over a certain range. This method is demonstrated by a laboratory test using sapphire spheres as coupling lenses.

    Honeycomb mirrors of borosilicate glass - Current results and plans for 7-8m diameter (1982)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The making of large astronomical mirrors with borosilicate glass honeycomb structure is discussed. Particular attention is given to a single casting technique for making borosilicate honeycomb mirror blanks up to 7 meters in diameter. Current work on the development of this technique involves the casting of blanks 60 cm in diameter which have the full thickness (33 cm), cell size (15 cm), and faceplate thickness (2.5 cm) needed for a 1.8-m mirror.
