    A search for primeval galaxies (1991)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: We are conducting a search for emission-line objects at large redshifts, ostensibly young and forming galaxies. Our method is to search for strong line emission, in particular Ly-alpha, using two techniques: a direct, narrow-band imaging search using a Fabry-Perot interferometer; and a serendipitous long-slit spectroscopic search. Assuming that none of the faint candidates found so far are actually primeval galaxies, we can set the strongest limits to date on the surface density of Ly-alpha-luminous primeval galaxies on the sky. Some of the faint emission line galaxies detected in our survey at z roughly 0.5 - 1 may be representative of the faint blue galaxy population detected in deep continuum imaging surveys.

    SAS 2 observations of the earth albedo gamma radiation above 35 MeV (1981)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-18
    Description: The earth albedo gamma radiation above 35 MeV in the equatorial region is investigated using observations from the second Small Astronomy Satellite. The zenith angle distribution of the gamma radiation has a peak toward the horizon which is about an order of magnitude more intense than the radiation coming from the nadir, and nearly two orders of magnitude more intense than the gamma radiation from most parts of the sky. The gamma radiation originating from the western horizon is a factor of four more intense than the radiation from the eastern horizon and a factor of three more intense than that from the northern and southern directions. This reflects the geomagnetic effects on the incident cosmic rays whose interactions produce the albedo gamma rays. The variation of the upcoming gamma ray intensity with vertical cutoff rigidity is consistent with the empirical relationship found by Gur'yan et al. (1979).

    Spectrophotometry of Epsilon Aur, 3295-8880 A (1985)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-06-07
    Description: Spectrophotometric scans were obtained at 8 A resolution from 3295 to 8880 A on twenty nights before, during, and after the recent eclipse of epsilon Aurigae, beginning with a pre-eclipse observation on 5 March 1982 U.T. The observations were reduced to absolute flux using the standard stars 109 Vir or xi(2) Ceti. The data confirm that the eclipse is essentially gray over the entire visible spectrum, as others have noted from broadband photometry. High resolution echellograms (450 to 6700 A) made through mid-eclipse and the scans show changes in the equivalent widths of H alpha, Na D, and O I as large as a factor of two.

    Photoelectric photometry of asteroid 69 Hesperia (1985)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: UBV photometric observations of the M asteroid 69 Hesperia, obtained using single-channel photometers on the 31-in. and 42-in. reflectors at Lowell Observatory and on the 24-in. reflector at Mauna Kea Observatory during the apparition of August-November 1977, are reported. The data are presented in tables and graphs and analyzed. Findings presented include minimal temporal or phase-angle-dependent light-curve fluctuations, evidence for large-scale albedo variegation of a few percent, synodic rotation period 5.65537 + or - 0.00064 h, zero-phase color indices B-V = 0.68 mag and U-B = 0.24 mag, B-V phase reddening 0.003 mag/deg, and absolute zero-phase primary maximum magnitude V = 7.04.

    The albedo of Uranus (1983)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: New absolute spectrophotometry of Uranus between 3295 A and 7676 A obtained at spectral resolutions of 4 A and 8 A during its 1981 apparition is reported and compared with previous observations by Younkin (1970) recorded during the 1961-1963 apparitions. Geometric albedos are calculated, and Bond albedos are estimated for both sets of data. An increase in brightness of about 14% and a color change occurred during the interval between the epochs of observation, consistent with the high north-polar haze reported by Price and Franz (1979) and the change in aspect of the planet. An upper limit to the internal heat source is estimated from energy balance considerations.

    Time variation of Martian regional contrasts. (1973)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Observations of contrast changes in blue light on Mars in 1969 and 1971 are presented. Seasonal effects evidently can be evaluated from these data, although nonseasonal effects are also present. A diurnal variation is noted for certain features during both apparitions. This variation cannot be fully accounted for without considering meteorological effects. An example of a contrast reversal in ultraviolet light is presented. The suggestion is made that during the Martian season covered herein, variability of the bright areas controlled the apparent contrasts observed.

    A new look at the Martian 'violet haze' problem. II - 'Blue clearing' in 1969. (1973)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: The 1969 apparition of Mars has been extensively observed by the International Planetary Patrol Program. Using this material, the distribution of blue clearing in phase angle has been examined for four Martian bright area-dark area pairs. Arabia-Syrtis Major showed a smooth variation with a maximum at opposition. Zephyria-Mare Cimmerium showed a similar behavior except for a period around 20 deg before opposition. Memnonia-Mare Sirenum showed a rather steady decline from 20 deg before opposition to 30 deg after opposition, except for an increase around 11 deg after opposition. Xanthe-Nilokeras showed a rather erratic behavior.

    Identification and mapping of coal refuse banks and other targets in the anthracite region (1973)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: ERTS-1 MSS data covering parts of Pennsylvania's southern and eastern middle anthracite coal fields were studied to determine how well accumulations of coal refuse could be identified and mapped by computer analysis and processing. Spectral signatures of coal refuse targets were similar to water, but had higher reflectances in all channels. Relative reflectances were in the order 4 5 or = 6 7. Although no underflight photography was at hand to judge mapping success, correlation was made, with 1:24,000 scale U.S.G.S. maps dated 1947 and 1948. Coal refuse targets correlated well with existing maps.

    A new look at the Martian 'violet haze' problem. I - Syrtis Major-Arabia, 1969. (1972)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Photographic and photoelectric data obtained in 1969 have been combined to provide a relatively accurate and complete description of the so-called blue clearing phenomenon on Mars. The dark feature Syrtis Major and its surroundings are the subject of the present study. A series of comparison images of Mars in blue light was assembled to form a scale of blue clearing. The scale steps represent about the smallest readily recognizable difference in apparent contrast. The relationship between the scale number and the brightness of Syrtis Major as compared to its surroundings has been established microphotometrically. International Planetary Patrol Program photographs in blue light having Syrtis Major near the center of the disk were compared to the scale and assigned a value. The results indicate that the blue clearing of Syrtis Major was strongly dependent upon phase angle in 1969, reaching a maximum at opposition. Syrtis Major displayed a diurnal variation of blue clearing near opposition. This variation disappeared away from opposition.

    Two X-ray pulsars: 2S 1145-619 and 1E 1145.1-6141 (1980)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Observations from the Einstein observatory reveal a previously unreported source, 1e1145.1-6141, within 15 arcmin of 2s1145-619 and of comparable intensity during July 1979. Periodicity analysis of the data shows a 290 + or - 2s period for the 2s source and a 298 + or - 4s period for the lE source, confirming the previous Ariel V report of two periods in this range from this region of the sky.
