The Hubble Space Telescope (HST), a large optical telescope having an aperture of 2.4 meters and a length of 8.8 meters, is being developed by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. This telescope will be placed into earth orbit by the space shuttle. Astrometric observations with the HST are made using a Fine Guidance Sensor which is capable of measuring the position of one object relative to another with an accuracy of ±0.002 arcseconds. The astrometric user of HST will be provided with an Astrometric Data Reduction Software package (ADRS). The variety of astrometric problems to be investigated with HST is discussed.  相似文献

Geochemical survey of thermal system in Northeast China and their geothermometric characters     

MohammedHazaea HUKe MohammedMattash CHENBing M.O.AI-JabaliAref MohammedAbdussalam 《东北亚地学研究》2004,7(2):181-184

The chemical composition of several thermal springs around Changbaishan area has been investigated. Cenozoic basaltic rocks are widely distributed in Northeast China and geothermal characteristics have been described. About one hundred hot springs exist around Changhaishan Volcano at the border between China and D.P.R.Korea with high temperature about 82~C. The pH values of the spring water range from 6.9 to 7.1 and the total flow rate is about 4.8 L/sec. The chemical composition of the thermal springs is sodium carbonate; the high-mineral contents of thermal water are believed to have medicinal properties. Bathhouses are already built along the hot springs to take the advantage of the supposed healing properties. The high quality of those hot springs is believed to be utilitized for mineral water. The chemical equilibrium temperatures were estimated at about 160℃ based on the Na-K-Ca geochemical thermometer.  相似文献   

Modes to replace transitional asymptotic ray fields in a vertically inhomogeneous earth model     

E. Niver  A. Kamel  L. B. Felsen 《Geophysical Journal International》1985,80(2):289-312

Summary. Asymptotic ray theory (ART) fails in transition regions near critically reflected, bottom glancing or caustic-forming rays in a vertically inhomogeneous layered earth. These deficiencies are repaired here by replacing the transitional ray fields with guided modes plus truncation remainders. Exact ray-mode equivalences and their high-frequency asymptotic approximations are formulated, and their validity and efficiency are verified by numerical comparisons for SH motion in a two-layer earth model comprised of an inhomogeneous sediment above an homogeneous semi-infinite bedrock.  相似文献   

Self-similar solutions for the blast wave problem in radiative gasdynamics,I     

J. B. Singh  K. S. Singh 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1985,111(1):79-85

Similarity solutions, describing the flow of a perfect gas behind spherical shock waves, are investigated including the radiation heat flux. The shock is assumed to be propagating in a medium at rest. Shock radius varies exponentially with time and density is inversely proportional to fifth power of the shock radius immediately ahead of the shock front.  相似文献

Friedmann cosmology with a cosmological constant in the modified Brans-Dicke theory     

A. Banerjee  N. Banerjee 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1985,114(1):165-174

Homogenous isotropic cosmologies in the presence of a cosmological constant A are studied in the modified Brans-Dicke theory. A class of exact solutions are obtained in Dicke's revised units for empty space as well as for the models filled with dust or radiation. Behaviour of these models near the singularity are discussed.  相似文献   

Oceanic Engineering: The making of an IEEE Society     

Coggeshall  I. 《Oceanic Engineering, IEEE Journal of》1985,10(2):63-83

In connection with the celebration of the centennial of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (UEEE) in 1984, the history of electrical engineering in relation to the world's oceans is traced, with emphasis on the 20-year period from the 1960's to the present. Note is taken of the breadth of the cross-disciplinary interests involved, as exemplified by the active participation of a score of IEEE Societies and Professional Groups, how they organized to cooperate, the periodic meetings and annual conferences they sponsored, the publications they undertook, the tokens of recognition they adopted, and how they adapted to changes in emphasis to reflect shifts in the areas of technology served. Finally, an assessment is made of the future of the recently organized IEEE Oceanic Engineering Society.  相似文献
