Sets and C^n; Quivers and A-D-E; Triality; Generalized Supersymmetry; and D4-D5-E6
The relation between Geisteswissenschaft and Naturwissenschaft has been
discussed by Munster in hep-th/9305104. The plan of this paper is to begin with
the empty set; use it to form sets and quivers (sets of points plus sets of
arrows between pairs of points); and then use them to make complex vector
spaces and to get the A-D-E Coxeter-Dynkin diagrams. The Dn Spin(2n) Lie
algebras have spinor representations to describe fermions. D4 Spin(8) triality
gives automorphisms among its vector and two half-spinor representations. D5
Spin(10) contains both Spin(8) and the complexification of the vector
representation of Spin(8). E6 contains both Spin(10) and the two half-spinor
representations of Spin(10), and therefore contains the adjoint representation
of Spin(8) and the complexifications of the vector and the two half-spinor
representations of Spin(8). E6 is the basis for construction of a fundamental
model of physics that is consistent with experiment (see hep-th/9302030,
hep-ph/9301210).Comment: 1+22 pages, THEP-93-5, LaTe
Gamma Ray Bursts and CETI
Gamma ray burst sources are isotropically distributed. They could be located at distances AU. (Katz \cite{JK92}) \\ GRB signals have many narrow peaks that are unresolved at the millisecond time resolution of existing observations. \cite{JK87} \\ CETI could use stars as gravitational lenses for interstellar gamma ray laser beam communication. \\ Much better time resolution of GRB signals could rule out (or confirm?) the speculative hypothesis that GRB = CETI

Airloads research study. Volume 2: Airload coefficients derived from wind tunnel data
The development of B-1 aircraft rigid wind tunnel data for use in subsequent tasks of the Airloads Research Study is described. Data from the Rockwell International external structural loads data bank were used to generate coefficients of rigid airload shear, bending moment, and torsion at specific component reference stations or both symmetric and asymmetric loadings. Component stations include the movable wing, horizontal and vertical stabilizers, and forward and aft fuselages. The coefficient data cover a Mach number range from 0.7 to 2.2 for a wing sweep position of 67.5 degree
Airloads research study. Volume 1: Flight test loads acquisition
The acquisition of B-1 aircraft flight loads data for use in subsequent tasks of the Airloads Research Study is described. The basic intent is to utilize data acquired during B-1 aircraft tests, analyze these data beyond the scope of Air Force requirements, and prepare research reports that will add to the technology base for future large flexible aircraft. Flight test data obtained during the airloads survey program included condition-describing parameters, surface pressures, strain gage outputs, and loads derived from pressure and strain gauges. Descriptions of the instrumentation, data processing, and flight load survey program are included. Data from windup-turn and steady yaw maneuvers cover a Mach number range from 0.7 to 2.0 for a wing sweep position of 67.5 deg
