Preliminary definition of a lunar landing and launch facility (Complex 39L)
A preliminary definition of a lunar landing and launch facility has been formulated. A permanently manned lunar base and a baseline lunar module are assumed. The major features of the facility are specified and major design areas are described
The hard X-ray burst spectrometer event listing 1980, 1981 and 1982
A comprehensive reference for the hard X-ray bursts detected with the Hard X-Ray Burst Spectrometer on the Solar Maximum Mission for the time of launch on February 14, 1980 to March 1983 is provided. Over 6300 X-ray events were detected in the energy range from 30 to approx 500 keV with the vast majority being solar flares. The listing includes the start time, peak time, duration and peak rate of each event
Results of a study of the stability of cointegrating relations comprised of broad monetary aggregates
There is strong evidence of a stable “money demand” relationship for MZM and M2 through the 1990s. Though the M2 relationship breaks down somewhere around 1990, evidence has been accumulating that the disturbance is well characterized as a permanent upward shift in M2 velocity that began around 1990 and was largely over by 1994. This paper’s results support the hypothesis that households permanently reallocated a portion of their wealth from time deposits to mutual funds. This reallocation may have been induced by depository restructuring, but it could also be explained by appropriately measured opportunity cost.Demand for money
Slowly decaying classical fields, unitarity, and gauge invariance
In classical external gauge fields that fall off less fast than the inverse
of the evolution parameter (time) of the system the implementability of a
unitary perturbative scattering operator (-matrix) is not guaranteed,
although the field goes to zero. The importance of this point is exposed for
the counter-example of low-dimensionally expanding systems. The issues of gauge
invariance and of the interpretation of the evolution at intermediate times are
also intricately linked to that point.Comment: 8 pages, no figure
Sliding Density-Wave in Sr_{14}Cu_{24}O_{41} Ladder Compounds
We used transport and Raman scattering measurements to identify the
insulating state of self-doped spin 1/2 two-leg ladders of Sr_{14}Cu_{24}O_{41}
as a weakly pinned, sliding density wave with non-linear conductivity and a
giant dielectric response that persists to remarkably high temperatures
