Prospects for astrometry with the Hubble Space Telescope     

W. H. Jefferys  G. F. Benedict  P. D. Hemenway  P. J. Shelus  R. L. Duncombe 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1985,37(3):299-305

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

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

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   

Going underground: in search of Carboniferous coal forests     

Howard J. Falcon-Lang  William A. DiMichele  Scott Elrick  & W. John Nelson 《Geology Today》2009,25(5):181-184

The development of coal forests during the Carboniferous is one of the best-known episodes in the history of life. Although often reconstructed as steamy tropical rainforests, these ancient ecosystems were a far cry from anything we might encounter in the Amazon today. Bizarre giant club-mosses, horsetails and tree ferns were the dominant plants, not flowering trees as in modern rainforests. At their height, coal forests stretched all the way from Kansas to Kazakhstan, spanning the entire breadth of tropical Pangaea. Most of what we know of their biodiversity and ecology has been quite literally mined out of the ground through two centuries of hard labour. Without coal mining, our knowledge would be greatly impoverished. Over the past few years, we've been exploring underground coal mines in the United States, where entire forested landscapes have been preserved intact over huge areas. Never before have geologists had the opportunity to walk out through mile upon mile of fossilized forest. In this feature article, we describe some of our recent explorations and attempt to shed new light on these old fossils.  相似文献
