A request-oriented information selection program

General purpose information retrieval program written entirely in FORTRAN 4 was developed and can be used with any file of fixed format documents. This program is easily used by noncomputer personnel and provides flexibility in search requests and output format

System for computing operational probability equations

SCOPE system computes an expression relating the probability of system success to the probabilities of success of its components. It is especially designed for complex system reliability studies

PWA of 3pi Final States and a Search for the pi1(1600)

Partial wave analyses (PWA) of the 3pi systems in the reactions pi- p --> pi+ pi- pi- p (the ``charged'' mode) and pi- p --> pi- pi0 pi0 p (the ``neutral'' mode) with an 18.3 GeV/c pion beam were performed using high statistics data from the E852 experiment. Conventional signals, such as the a1(1260), the a2(1320), and the pi2(1670), were found to be remarkably stable to the choice of waves included in the fit. In contrast, possible evidence for the pi1(1600) in the JPC = 1-+ exotic wave amplitude disappears when additional decay modes of conventional mesons (especially those of the pi2(1670)) are included in the PWA fit.Comment: Hadron05 Proceedings, 5 pages, 4 figure

Thrust reverser for a long duct fan engine

A bypass duct outer cowl includes a fixed cascade disposed between axially spaced fixed cowl portions and a translatable cowl sleeve and blocker doors movably disposed on the respective radially outer and inner sides of the cascade. Actuation and linkage structure located entirely within the outer cowl provides for selectively moving the cowl sleeve rearwardly and rotating the blocker doors to a position across the bypass duct to cause the fan airflow to pass through the cascade in a thrust reversing manner
