Structure of Saturn's rings: Optical and dynamical considerations

The photometric phase curves of Saturn's rings are considered, as well as a conflict between dynamical and photometric models of the rings. The dependence of ring brightness on angular separation of the earth and sun as viewed from Saturn is discussed. The nonlinear brightness surge is interpreted. Some quantitative calculations were carried out for bodies in and near the asteroidal belt. Predicted density profiles of the ring obtained with Mimas in an eccentric orbit and in a circular orbit are also included

Mixing of Xi_c and Xi_c' Baryons

The mixing angle between the Xi_c and Xi_c' baryons is shown to be small, with a negligible shift in the Xi_c masses.Comment: One missprint corrected. The numerator of Eq. (12) should read {2[(Sigma_c^{*++}-Sigma_c^{++})-(Xi_c^{*+}-Xi_c^{'+})]} The correct equation was used in the calculation so no other change is mad

Orbit improvement of the satellites of the outer planets

Data reduced from 127 plates showing Jupiter's and Saturn's satellites in the interval 1972 to 1974 are available on computer cards in the form of (O-C) residuals. Initial orbit calculations and several later orbit improvements for Jupiter XIII (Leda) culminated in an extended ephemeris for Leda to the year 2000. The possible existence of several small satellites just outside Saturns rings was predicted. De Sitter's incomplete theory for the motion of the Galilean satellites was reviewed and an outline for a revised, complete theory was developed. Observations of nearly 100 relative positions of the Galilean satellite with a mean accuracy of about 100 km (0.03 arc sec) were used to improve Sampson's theory for these satellites. Results were published on (1) a long term upper limit to Jupiter's orbital eccentricity; (2) deviation of an accurate modern value of the ellipticity of Uranus from balloon-borne images and consequent evaluation of the planet's rotation rate; and (3) identification of features in Saturn's rings as produced by heretofore undetected tesseral harmonics of Saturn's gravitational field

Lindelof spaces which are indestructible, productive, or D

We discuss relationships in Lindelof spaces among the properties "indestructible", "productive", "D", and related properties

Unsteady transition measurements on a pitching three-dimensional wing

Boundary layer transition measurements were made during an experimental study of the aerodynamics of a rectangular wing undergoing unsteady pitching motions. The wing was tested at chordwise Mach numbers between 0.2 and 0.6, at sweep angles of 0, 15, and 30 deg, and for steady state, sinusoidal, and constant pitch rate motions. The model was scaled to represent a full size helicopter rotor blade, with chord Reynolds numbers between 2 and 6 x 10(exp 6). Sixteen surface hot-film gages were located along three spanwise stations: 0.08, 0.27, and 0.70 chords from the wing tip. Qualitative heat transfer information was obtained to identify the unsteady motion of the point of transition to turbulence. In combination with simultaneous measurements of the unsteady surface pressure distributions, the results illustrate the effects of compressibility, sweep, pitch rate, and proximity to the wing tip on the transition and relaminarization locations

Airfoil stall penetration at constant pitch rate and high Reynolds number

The model wing consists of a set of fiberglass panels mounted on a steel spar that spans the 8 ft test section of the UTRC Large Subsonic Wind Tunnel. The first use of this system was to measure surface pressures and flow conditions for a series of constant pitch rate ramps and sinusoidal oscillations a Mach number range, a Reynolds number range, and a pitch angle range. It is concluded that an increased pitch rate causes stall events to be delayed, strengthening of the stall vortex, increase in vortex propagation, and increase in unsteady airloads. The Mach number range causes a supersonic zone near the leading edge, stall vortex to be weaker, and a reduction of unsteady airloads

Ku-band multiple beam antenna

The frequency reuse capability is demonstrated for a Ku-band multiple beam antenna which provides contiguous low sidelobe spot beams for point-to-point communications between any two points within the continental United States (CONUS), or regional coverage beams for direct broadcast systems. A spot beam antenna in the 14/21 GHz band which provides contiguous overlapping beams covering CONUS and two discrete beams covering Hawaii and Alaska were designed, developed, and tested. Two reflector antennas are required for providing contiguous coverage of CONUS. Each is comprised of one offset parabolic reflector, one flat polarization diplexer, and two separate planar array feeds. This antenna system provides contiguous spot beam coverage of CONUS, utilizing 15 beams. Also designed, developed and demonstrated was a shaped contoured beam antenna system which provides contiguous four time zone coverage of CONUS from a single offset parabolic reflector incorporating one flat polarization diplexer and two separate planar array feeds. The beams which illuminate the eastern time zone and the mountain time zone are horizontally polarized, while the beams which illuminate the central time zone and the pacific time zone are vertically polarized. Frequency reuse is achieved by amplitude and polarization isolation

Perkembangan Interpretasi “Ke Belakang Tabir” (Ibr. 6:19, 20) Di Dalam Gereja Masehi Advent Hari Ketujuh

In the study of the heavenly sanctuary and Christ's ministry in it, theinterpretation of the phrase “within the veil” (Heb. 6:19-20) and its implicationshave become one of crucial contentious theological issues among interpreterswithin the Seventh-day Adventist (SDA) Church. In the 160 year history of theSDA Church, there have been crucial theological debates on the interpretation ofthe phrase. Many SDA Church administrators, ministers, and scholars haveagreed and disagreed with one another on the interpretation of the phrase and itsimplications. The debate over the interpretation of the phrase "within the veil"among Adventist scholars has resulted in the proposition of differentinterpretations among Adventist theologians. The main question this studyseeks to answer is, How have the various interpretations of the phrase “withinthe veil” (Heb. 6:19-20) been developed within the SDA Church history? What,then, are the implications of each different interpretation in the study of theheavenly sanctuary and Christ's intercessory ministry in the heavenly sanctuary
