    Observations of the J = 10 manifold of the pure rotational band of phosphine on Saturn (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: Saturn was observed in the vicinity of the J = 10 manifold of the pure rotational band of phosphine on 1984 July 10 and 12 from NASA's Kuiper Airborne Observatory with the facility far-infrared cooled grating spectrometer. On each night observations of the full disk plus rings were made at 4 to 6 discrete wavelengths which selectively sampled the manifold and the adjacent continuum. The previously reported detection of this manifold is confirmed. After subtraction of the flux due to the rings, the data are compared with disk-averaged models of Saturn. It is found that PH3 must be strongly depleted above the thermal inversion (approx. 70 mbar). The best fitting models consistent with other observational constraints indicate that PH3 is significantly depleted at even deeper atmospheric levels (or = 500 mbar), implying an eddy diffusion coefficient for Saturn of 10 to the 4 cm sq/sec.

    Voyager 2 radio science observations of the Uranian system Atmosphere, rings, and satellites (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The results of preliminary analyses of radio occultation data obtained by Voyager 2 as it passed Uranus are described. The occultations took place between 2-7 deg S latitude and yielded atmospheric temperature profiles between pressure levels of 10-900 mbar, an altitude range of 100 km. The mole fractions of hydrogen and helium in the tropopause were estimated, in conjunction with IR data, to about 0.85 and 0.10-0.20, respectively. Radio signal intensity data indicated the presence of a cloud deck of CH4 ice at a pressure level of 1300 mbar and a temperature of 81 K, implying a CH4 mole fraction of 0.02 at very low altitudes. The ionosphere extended upward, in two levels, to more than 10,000 km altitude. The ring system was different than the one around Saturn and possessed cylindrical substructures. The radio data also permitted mass density estimates for the five major moons, i.e., about 1.40 gr/cu cm, a value which rules out cometary origins.

    Apollo 16 regolith breccias - Characterization and evidence for early formation in mega-regolith (1986)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: The Apollo 16 regolith breccias were characterized in terms of petrography, grain-size distribution, porosity, major and trace element composition, noble gas contents, and ferromagnetic resonance properties. Significant variation was found with respect to density and porosity; the more dense breccias displayed substantial shock damage. The breccias resembled the soils in grain-size distribution and in petrological components, though many were found to be compositionally different from the Apollo 16 soils in that a mafic component was lacking. Nearly all breccias showed evidence of irradiation at the lunar surface, and analyses of disaggregated breccias indicated that this irradiation occurred before compaction. The concentration of surface irradiation parameters were far less than those of lunar soils or breccias of other Apollo missions. Observations with respect to the argon isotope ratio and Xe presence have led to the possibility that breccia-surface irradiation occurred as early as four billion years ago, and that most Apollo 16 regolith breccias were not formed from any known Apollo 16 soil.

    Comparison of petrology, grain sizes and surface maturity parameters for Apollo 15 regolith breccias and soils (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-19
    Description: A total of 28 Apollo 15 regolith breccias were analyzed for their petrographic and textural properties and for the surface exposure indices solar noble gases and I (sub s)/Fe 0. Similarities and differences in compositional components and irradiation history were examined between regolith breccias and local, present day soils.

    Six-color photometry of Iapetus, Titan, Rhea, Dione and Tethys (1974)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Six-color photometric observations made during Saturn's 1972/73 opposition enable us to separate the solar phase and orbital phase contributions to the observed light variations of Iapetus, Titan, Rhea, Dione and Tethys. Titan shows no orbital variations, but has phase coefficients which range from negligible values in the infrared to 0.014 mag/deg in the ultraviolet. Rhea has a bright leading side, a light curve amplitude of about 0.2 mag, and surprisingly large phase coefficients. Combined with other available information, the observations suggest a very porous, texturally complex surface layer. Dione has a leading side which is a few tenths of a magnitude brighter than the trailing side, but the light curve amplitude has little wavelength dependence and the phase coefficients are significantly smaller than those of Rhea, suggesting a less intricate surface texture. The leading side of Tethys is probably a few tenths of a magnitude brighter than the trailing side. Our Iapetus observations generally supplement the earlier work by Millis.

    Electrostatic waves in the magnetosphere of Uranus (1987)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: Observations of electrostatic waves in the magnetosphere of Uranus are discussed with attention focused on the Bernstein emissions. The most intense Bernstein waves were observed near the magnetic equator of the planet, even though the tilt of the Uranian magnetic moment is very large relative to the rotational axis. In addition to the Bernstein modes, a number of highly sporadic emissions were detected in the vicinity of the Miranda L shell.

    Apollo 15 regolith breccias - Window to a KREEP regolith (1989)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-13
    Description: The characteristics of 28 regolith breccias returned from the Apollo 15 site have been compared with those of Apollo 15 soils, Apollo 15 rock types, and Apollo 16 regolith breccias. The results suggest that KREEP basalts are not exotic to the site, and that the site is underlain by KREEP basalts which were converted to a KREEP-rich regolith full of small KREEP basalt fragments and KREEP composition glass. A possible implication of the present model is that agglutinate production was not significant in the time interval from 3.9-3.3 Gy.
