    Description: A preliminary analysis of magnetometer data from Apollo 15 subsatellite is concluded. Remanent magnetization is a characteristic property of the moon, and the distribution is such that a complex pattern is produced. A mapping of the distribution is feasible with the present experiment. Lunar induction fields produced by transients in interplanetary magnetic field are detectable at satellite orbit. Magnetometer data will provide estimates of the latitude and longitude dependences of interior conductivity. The plasma void extends to some altitude below the satellite orbit and probably the lunar surface. Solar wind near the limbs is usually strongly disturbed.

    Description: Twenty-three transient interplanetary shocks observed near earth during 1978-1982, and mostly reported in the literature, have also been identified at the Pioneer Venus Orbiter spacecraft. There seems to be a fairly consistent trend for lower shock speeds, farther from the sun. Shock normals obtained using the Pioneer Venus data correspond well with published values from near earth. By referring to the portion of the Pioneer Venus plasma data used here from locations at longitudes within 37 deg of earth, it is found that shocks are weaker at earth, compared with those closer to the sun.

    Description: Magnetic field measurements made with the Apollo 15 subsatellite established the existence of remanent magnetization over much of the Moon's surface. The major features of the structure of the measured remanent field are apparently associated with large craters, the most apparent detected to date being that in the vicinity of the Van de Graaff crater. A preliminary contour map of relative magnetic intensity was produced for a limited region of the Moon. A high resolution plot of the Van de Graaff region was constructed from vector data in an attempt to locate the source of the largest feature observed.

    Description: Consideration is given to: the mass loading of planetary magnetospheres by rocky satellites; the effects of electrostatic forces on the vertical structure of planetary rings; and dust motion in Jupiter's tilted magnetic field. Other topics include: IRAS observations of cometary dust; dust environment models for Comet P/Halley; plasma processes and solar wind interaction; and cometary interplanetary field enhancements in the solar wind. Consideration is also given to: the impact of dust grains on fast fly-by spacecraft; EUV observations of Comet Halley; and the thermal model and thermo-mechanical stresses in cometary nuclei.

    Description: The magnetic field observed by the VEGA spacecraft seems to be disturbed by the comet over a wide frequency band, and over an extended range surrounding the comet. The level of magnetic fluctuations seems higher than that of the solar wind at least as low as -0.3 mHz and as far as -10 Mkm. The observed fluctuation level near water group ion cyclotron frequency does not show a clear dependence on the distance from the comet when the spacecraft is far from the comet, but in the cometary magnetosheath the fluctuation level decreases with the decreasing distance from the comet near both proton and water group ion cyclotron frequency.

    Description: High resolution VEGA magnetic field and plasma data in Halley's magnetosphere reveal out-of-phase oscillations of the type expected to be driven by the mirror mode instability. The spacecraft passes through these structures in about 20 s. The magnetic energy density drops about 6.5 x 15 exp 9 ergs/cu cm in a typical event. The thickness of these regions is about a water-group ion gyro diameter. While such enhancements should be invisible against the comet when viewed perpendicular to the wavefronts, they could be visible as rays when viewed tangential to the wavefronts.

    Description: The Naval Research Laboratory's magnetohydrodynamic simulation code is used to simulate the solar wind interction with comet Halley for two different outgassing rates and several different solar wind states. The magnetic field is more strongly draped for fast solar wind conditions than slow. For higher mass loading rates, the tail becomes wider and contains more magnetic flux. The visual appearance of the comet differs for the case in which the interplanetary magnetic field lies in the plane of the sky from the case when it lies along the line of sight. The ion tail appears shorter in the latter case. Thus variation in the IMF direction can cause significant changes in the appearance of comets. The comet also creates a large momentum flux deficit in the solar wind with a narrow enhanced region within it corresponding to the ion tail.

    Description: This is the eighth in a series of volumes pertaining to the Polar Region Outer Magnetosphere International Study (PROMIS). This volume contains 24 hour stack plots of 1-minute average, H and D component, ground magnetograms for the period March 10 through June 16, 1986. Nine midlatitude ground stations were selected from the UCLA magnetogram data base that was constructed from all available digitized magnetogram stations. The primary purpose of this publication is to allow users to define universal times and onset longitudes of magnetospheric substorms.

    Description: It is noted that, while the Pioneer Venus orbiter detected an unusual IMF and solar wind plasma disturbance on Feb. 11, 1982, the Venera 13 and 14 spacecraft were conducting IMF measurements 6 million miles away which exhibit very weak disturbances several hours after the peak of the Pioneer Venus event. It is speculated that, if the event had been a solar-initiated disturbance, it should have been detected in virtually unaltered form by Venera 13 and 14; whose data therefore furnish further evidence for the cometary nature of this event.

    Description: In February, 1982, an unusual enhancement of the IMF was observed by the Pioneer Venus orbiter at 0.72 AU. The three discontinuities within this large disturbance, previously suggested to be due to the possible passage of a comet, are examined in view of the alternative possibility of their representing the first observation to date of a cometary shock. It is noted that number density, temperature, and velocity changes, as well as the magnetic structure of the discontinuities, are consistent with this hypothesis.
