Electromechanical rotary actuator operates over wide temperature range
Electromechanical rotary actuator, which operates over wide temperature range, contains a spring stop which has been calculated to limit internal deceleration loads to a magnitude equal to stall torque. Cryogenic capability is obtained by using dry lubricant on the gears and no lubrication on the bearings

The DMSP/MFR total ozone and radiance data base
This report describes the entries in sufficient detail so that the data base might be useful to others. The characteristics of the MFR sensor are briefly discussed and a complete index to the data base tapes is given
Virtual Meson Cloud of the Nucleon and Intrinsic Strangeness and Charm
We have applied the Meson Cloud Model (MCM) to calculate the charm and
strange antiquark distribution in the nucleon. The resulting distribution, in
the case of charm, is very similar to the intrinsic charm momentum distribution
in the nucleon. This seems to corroborate the hypothesis that the intrinsic
charm is in the cloud and, at the same time, explains why other calculations
with the MCM involving strange quark distributions fail in reproducing the low
x region data. From the intrinsic strange distribution in the nucleon we have
extracted the strangeness radius of the nucleon, which is in agreement with
other meson cloud calculations.Comment: 9 pages RevTex, 4 figure
Visible and near infrared observation on the Global Aerosol Backscatter Experiment (GLOBE)
The Global Aerosol Backscatter Experiment (GLOBE) was intended to provide data on prevailing values of atmospheric backscatter cross-section. The primary intent was predicting the performance of spaceborne lidar systems, most notably the Laser Atmospheric Wind Sounder (LAWS) for the Earth Observing System (EOS). The second and related goal was to understand the source and characteristics of atmospheric aerosol particles. From the GLOBE flights, extensive data was obtained on the structure of clouds and the marine planetary boundary layer. A notable result for all observations is the consistency of the large increases in the aerosol scattering ratio for the marine boundary layer. Other results are noted
Parents' involvement in child care: do parental and work identities matter?
The current study draws on identity theory to explore mothers' and fathers' involvement in childcare. It examined the relationships between the salience and centrality of individuals’ parental and work-related identities and the extent to which they are involved in various forms of childcare. A sample of 148 couples with at least one child aged 6 years or younger completed extensive questionnaires. As hypothesized, the salience and centrality of parental identities were positively related to mothers' and fathers' involvement in childcare. Moreover, maternal identity salience was negatively related to fathers' hours of childcare and share of childcare tasks. Finally, work hours mediated the negative relationships between the centrality of work identities and time invested in childcare, and gender moderated this mediation effect. That is, the more central a mother's work identity, the more hours she worked for pay and the fewer hours she invested in childcare. These findings shed light on the role of parental identities in guiding behavioral choices, and attest to the importance of distinguishing between identity salience and centrality as two components of self-structure
