    Precise determination of the distances of galaxies (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: The use of the Space Telescope in the determination of the distances of galaxies is examined. The Space Telescope can check the local extragalactic distance scale to within 10-15 percent. The determination of relative distances of cosmic standard candles, viz. brightest M-supergiants and SNe I in E galaxies, is discussed. The M-supergiants map the velocity field out to v sub o approx. 3000 km s(-1) thus providing a firm basis for the determination of H sub o (global) from local distances, and the possibility to derive precise distances of all nearby field galaxies from their recession velocities. Photometry of the SNe I out to z = 0.5 leads to a direct determination of q sub o via the Hubble diagram, and the form of their light curves offers a fundamental test on the nature of redshifts. Other calculations are discussed.

    Requirements for predictions and real-time monitoring for the study of travelling interplanetary phenomena (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: Physical processes within quiescent as well as disturbed flows of solar wind plasma, energetic particles, and magnetic and electric fields from the Sun are considered. Specifically, travelling interplanetary phenomena to be studied during the years of the solar maximum of solar cycle 21 are covered. It is noted that predictions, while needed for long range, logistical planning, is secondary to the requirements of synoptic real time monitoring over a wide range of particle energies and spectral bandwidths.

    The central regions of active galaxies and quasars (1979)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2006-01-16
    Description: Theories describing the central regions of nonthermal extragalactic sources (radio galaxies, Seyfert nuclei, quasars, etc.) are examined in the light of the experimental possibilities afforded by the Space Telescope. In particular, the theory which proposes the accretion of stars or gas onto a black hole as the explanation of the central engine is discussed. Planned observations directed towards the problem of the mass, size, and structure of the central engine, and the phenomenological questions regarding the general environment of the central engine are outlined.

    Interstellar C2 molecules toward Zeta Persei (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: A search for absorption by interstellar C2 molecules, conducted at the (2-0) Phillips band near 8760 A, is reported for three stars. No interstellar absorption is seen in the spectra of 20 Tau and Epsilon Aur, at upper limits of approximately 5 mA and 1 mA, respectively. Toward Zeta Per, however, the R(0), Q(2), and Q(4) lines are detected, and a useful upper limit on the Q(6) line is obtained. The resulting column density, 1.4 x 10 to the 13th to 2.0 x 10 to the 13th per sq cm, and the excitation temperature, T = (78 plus or minus 25) K, show acceptable agreement with an existing theoretical model of the absorbing cloud.

    Galaxies and gamma-ray astronomy (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The nature of the high-energy spectra of several types of active galaxies and their contribution to the measured diffuse gamma-ray emission between 1 and 150 MeV are considered, using X-ray spectra of active galaxies and SAS 2 data regarding the intensity upper limits to the gamma-ray emission above 35 MeV. It is found that a substantial increase in slope of the photon energy spectrum must occur in the low energy gamma-ray region for Seyfert galaxies, BL Lac objects, and emission line galaxies; the power-law spectra observed in the X-ray range must steepen substantially between 50 keV and 50 MeV. In addition, a cosmological integration shows that Seyfert galaxies, BL Lac objects, and quasars may account for most of the 1-150 MeV diffuse background, even without significant evolution.

    Magnetic Cepheids (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: The role of a magnetic field in the pulsational behavior of classical Cepheids has been studied by computing linearized models of pulsating stellar envelopes pervaded by a well-tangled magnetic field. It is found that the 'pulsational' masses of Cepheids that are implied by the theoretical values of the quantities Q(0), P(1)/P(0), and (possibly) P(2)/P(0) can be brought into line with the large 'evolutionary' masses, if the pressure due to the postulated magnetic field is assumed to be comparable to the thermodynamic pressure everywhere in the pulsating layers. The field strengths that are required - several hundred gauss at the surface and several ten thousand gauss at the base - are quite reasonable from the point of view of the observed magnetic fields in Cepheids. The influence of the magnetic field on the location of the blue edge of the instability strip in the H-R diagram is estimated to be very slight.

    HEAO 1 observations of the X-ray pulsar 4U 1626-67 (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: Results are reported for an observation of the 7-s pulsar 4U 1626-67 with the A-2 experiment on HEAO 1. The phase-averaged X-ray spectrum between 0.7 and 60 keV is complex, as are the constituent spectra, which change radically as a function of pulse phase. Included in this spectral change is the sudden appearance and subsequent decay of a continuum or emission feature with a mean energy of 19 keV, which contains about one-half the power in this spectral range. Pulse-timing results include a new determination of the pulse period and a factor of 8 reduction in the upper limit for the light travel time for orbital periods between 1 and 7 hours. These findings are discussed and compared with the general nature of pulsar spectra.
