V.; Ivankin, M. A.; Kolesnikov, O. M.; Lavrukhin, G. N.; Merekin, D. V.; Oct. 2003; 3 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432570; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Results of investigations of the mechanism of appearance and destruction of separation zones in supersonic gas flows are presented. Methods for controlling separation phenomena were developed to increase the operation efficiency of ducts combustors inlets and outlets of high-speed aircrafts. The trends of investigations were: 1) Study of deceleration flows in ducts of various shapes with pseudoshock; 2) Development of non-traditional manners of spatial implementation of combustion in supersonic flows; 3) Computational analysis of optimum methods of energy supply in internal flows with separation zones; 4) Control of separation phenomena for increasing efficiency of power plant outlets. The following major results were obtained: For 1st trend: Features of the structure of the non-steady separation in the ducts with deceleration of the supersonic flow in the pseudoshock were determined. Methods for controlling the pseudoshock were developed. Conditions for forming separation zones under interference of various shear layers (vortex jet) generated ahead of the entrance and in ducts with the pseudoshock were studied. For 2nd trend: For the first time in the world practice the gasdynamic stabilizers of combustion were developed. Their principle of operation was based on artificial generation of free-hanging separation zones in the supersonic flow. Successful experimental try-out of some schemes of gasdynamic stabilizers was carried out at the TsAGI’s hypersonic test rig T-131 at M=2.5 - 2.6. They permitted to obtain self-ignition and stable combustion of hydrogen: DTIC Aircraft Engines; Augmentation

It was show that the surface pulsed-periodical discharge results to ignition beforehand mixed supersonic propane-air fuel in the aerodynamic channel. In experimental conditions the combustion front speed reaches value of v(sub c)=40-45 m/s that well coordinates to the data which was got at investigation of burning into the fire-resistant channel. The kinetical model is working out for finding-out of influence of different channels on ignition of combustible mixtures in supersonic flow. The preliminary calculations demonstrate that at low initial gas temperature the induction time of H2-O2 mixture decreases on some orders of magnitude at taking into account of dissociation active radicals and charged particles.

While conventional analysis tools are insufficient for calculating the aerodynamics of an oblique wing, a suitable method has been determined for use with the USAF Missile DATCOM code. Comparisons made between wind tunnel results and Missile DATCOM calculations show that Missile DATCOM can produce a reasonable approximation of the aerodynamics of a wing at oblique deployment angles.

20050173428 Army Research Lab., Hampton, VA USA Multibody Dynamics Simulation And Experimental Investigation of a Model-Scale Tiltrotor Singleton, Jeffrey D.; Shen, Jinwei; Piatak, David J.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432851; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The objective of this investigation is to develop a multibody analytical simulation model to predict the dynamic response, aeroelastic stability, and blade loading of a soft-inplane tiltrotor wind-tunnel model and correlate that with experimental data. A Joint Vertical Aircraft Task Force is currently developing requirements to meet Army and Navy needs for a heavy lift transport rotorcraft that is expected to include, at a minimum, a 20-ton payload lift capability. Development of soft-inplane tiltrotor technology is beneficial for providing viable lightweight hub design options for this future application. Experimental testing, either in flight testing or with a wind tunnel test article, is becoming prohibitively expensive. Advanced simulation and modeling of these complex tiltrotor hub configurations using multibody dynamics codes may prove to be an alternative to such expensive experimental verifications in the future. The use of multibody dynamics codes to predict and reduce the risk of encountering aeromechanical instabilities and adverse loading situations for a soft-inplane tiltrotor hub design is detailed in this investigation. Comprehensive rotorcraft-based multibody analyses enable simulation and modeling of the rotor system to a high level of detail such that complex mechanics and nonlinear e ects associated with control system geometry and joint free-play may be considered. The influence of these and other nonlinear e ects on the aeromechanical behavior of the tiltrotor model is examined. A parametric study of the design parameters which influence the aeromechanics of the soft-inplane rotor system is also included in this investigation.

K.; Korabelnikov, A. V.; Fedotov, A. V.; Oct. 2003; 12 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432960; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Thermal protection of heat-stressed surfaces of a hypersonic flight vehicle (HFV) flying in dense layers of atmosphere with hypersonic velocities (M greater than or equal 7) is now one of the most actual problems 1,2. In HFV developed under the ‘Ajax’ concept it is supposed that in the most heat- stressed parts of a skin and engine the chemical catalytic reactors will be placed in which the high endothermic processes of decomposition of initial hydrocarbon fuel with the help of steam and carbon dioxide reforming of methane and its liquid homologues have to be implemented 3. Such organization of the process of thermochemical conversion of hydrocarbons onboard a flight vehicle (FV) will enable 4: - to increase a portion of useful usage of a FV power resource at the expense of a chemical recuperation of heat losses connected as with aerodynamic heating of a skin under the hypersonic flight conditions and power plant operation; - to increase cooling capability of fuel by means of physical-chemical transformations (heating vaporization endothermic reactions) of initial components; - to provide an active thermal protection (ATP) of heat-stressed parts of construction using not only heat removal by means of convection and radiation but also its absorption in a catalytic reaction run directly on the protected surface; - to influence positively on the conditions of a FV airflow-around at the expense of a skin construction cooling; - to obtain in reaction a synthesis gas (mixture of H2 and CO) which will be directed to the combustion chamber for improvement of a fuel combustion characteristics.

The approach is to harvest prior and on-going developments that address the technology needs identified by emergent in-theatre requirements and users of the RSP. The component technologies are evaluated on a transition platform to identify the best features of the different approaches which are then integrated and optimized to work in harmony in a complete solution. The result is an enabling mechanism that continuously capitalizes on state-of-the-art results from the research environment to create a standardized solution that can be easily transitioned to ongoing development programs. This paper focuses on particular research areas, specifically collision avoidance, simultaneous localization and mapping (SLAM), and target-following and describes the results of their combined integration and optimization over the past 12 months.

20050173347 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Lexington, MA USA Information Theoretic Comparison of MIMO Wireless Communication Receivers in the Presence of Interference Bliss, Daniel W.; Forsythe, Keith W.; Dec. 2004; 30 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432690; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Multiple-input multiple-output (MI MO) wireless communication provides a number of advantages over traditional single-input single-output (SISO) approaches including increased data rates for a given total transmit power and improved robustness to interference. Many of these advantages depend strongly upon the details of the receiver implementation. For practical communication systems a competition between communication performance and computational complexity exists. To reduce computation complexity suboptimal receivers are commonly employed. In this paper the details of a variety of receivers are incorporated into the effects of the channel so that information-theoretic performance bounds can be exploited to evaluate receiver approaches. The performance of these receivers is investigated for a range of environments. Two classes of environments are considered: first channel complexity characterized by the shape of the narrowband channel-matrix singular-value distribution and second external interference Receiver approaches include minimum-mean-squared error minimum interference and multichannel multiuser detection (MCMUD) given various assumed limitations on channel and interference estimation Receiver performance implications are also demonstrated using experimental data.

20050173377 Telcordia Technologies, Inc., Red Bank, NJ USA Iterative Detection for Multi-User MIMO Systems Liberti, Joseph; Martin, Carol C.; Mar. 2004; 25 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432744; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Multi-input multi-output (MIMO) systems can serve as the building blocks for spectrally efficient mobile multi-user tactical wireless systems; however, care must be taken to translate high per- spectral efficiency into high network throughput. Mobile tactical networks generally have several features that complicate achievement of high multi-user MIMO spectral efficiency, including non-centralized, infrastructure-free operation and operation when all nodes are mobile, as well as requirements to minimize probability of interception and susceptibility to jamming. The paper presents results from both simulations and an extensive over-the-air measurement campaign, which illustrate the key features needed for spectrally efficient multi-user MIMO systems. High MIMO network throughput can be achieved by combining efficient MAC (taking into account MIMO signal processing resources) and transmitter stream control, as well as high performance MIMO signal

3 processing and waveforms that minimize per-link signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR) requirements leading to effective spectral reuse. Iterative detection schemes provide such high spectral efficiency at low SINRs, achieving performance that approaches the Shannon bound, and provide scalable complexity. These methods are also well suited to operation in multi-user environments, supporting both interference- mitigation and joint detection approaches. The paper provides analysis and experimental results for waveforms and receiver signal processing for Space-Time Bit Interleaved Coded Modulation using multi- carrier waveforms. Results and parameter trades are presented for variations of this approach using List Sphere Detection and Soft-Symbol Cancellation as well as structures based on convolutional codes and turbo codes.

The use of unmanned systems, particularly UAVs, in the campaign in Afghanistan and in Iraqi Freedom operations demonstrated beyond any doubt the effectiveness and viability of unmanned systems in !SR as well as weapons delivery missions. As a result, in future military scenarios, large numbers of unmanned ground, air, underwater, and surface vehicles will work together, coordinated by an ever smaller number of human operators. In order to be operationally efficient, effective and useful, these robots must have competent physical and sensing abilities, must be able to perform complex tasks semi-autonomously, must be able to coordinate with each other, and must ultimately be observable and controllable in a useful and intuitive fashion by human operators. Under the Naval Automation and Information Management Technology Program (NAlMT), The Institute for Human and Machine Cognition (IHMC) of the University of West Florida has conducted advanced research on unmanned systems in the areas of (1) unmanned underwater vehicle mobility, (2) human-agent teamwork and agile computing and (3) mixed initiative human control.

20050169564 North Carolina State Univ., Raleigh, NC, USA Distributed Actuation and Sensing on an Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle Barnwell, William Garrard; UAV Flight Control Using Distributed Actuation and Sensing; 2003; 120 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): NAG1-01069; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A06, Hardcopy An array of effectors and sensors has been designed, tested and implemented on a Blended Wing Body Uninhabited Aerial Vehicle (UAV). The UAV is modified to serve as a flying, controls research, testbed. This effector/sensor array provides for the dynamic vehicle testing of controller designs and the study of decentralized control techniques. Each wing of the UAV is equipped with 12 distributed effectors that comprise a segmented array of independently actuated, contoured control surfaces. A single pressure sensor is installed near the base of each effector to provide a measure of deflections of the effectors. The UAV wings were tested in the North Carolina State University Subsonic Wind Tunnel and the pressure distribution that result from the deflections of the effectors are characterized. The results of the experiments are used to develop a simple, but

4 accurate, prediction method, such that for any arrangement of the effector array the corresponding pressure distribution can be determined. Numerical analysis using the panel code CMARC verifies this prediction method.

20050170033 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, McDonnell-Douglas Helicopter Co., USA, Lucas Western, Inc., USA, Illinois Univ., Chicago, IL, USA Face Gear Technology for Aerospace Power Transmission Progresses [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The use of face gears in an advanced rotorcraft transmission design was first proposed by the McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Company during their contracted effort with the U.S. Army under the Advanced Rotorcraft Transmission (ART) program. Face gears would be used to turn the corner between the horizontal gas turbine engine and the vertical output rotor shaft--a function currently done by spiral bevel gears. This novel gearing arrangement would substantially lower the drive system weight partly because a face gear mesh would be used to split the input power between two output gears. However, the use of face gears and their ability to operate successfully at the speeds and loads required for an aerospace environment was unknown. Therefore a proof-of-concept phase with an existing test stand at the NASA Lewis Research Center was pursued. Hardware was designed that could be tested in Lewis’ Spiral Bevel Gear Test Rig. The initial testing indicated that the face gear mesh was a feasible design that could be used at high speeds and load. Surface pitting fatigue was the typical failure mode, and that could lead to tooth fracture. An interim project was conducted to see if slight modifications to the gear tooth geometry or an alternative heat treating process could overcome the surface fatigue problems. From the initial and interim tests, it was apparent that for the surface fatigue problems to be overcome the manufacturing process used for this component would have to be developed to the level used for spiral bevel gears. The current state of the art for face gear manufacturing required using less than optimal gear materials and manufacturing techniques because the surface of the tooth form does not receive final finishing after heat treatment as it does for spiral bevel gears. This resulted in less than desirable surface hardness and manufacturing tolerances. An Advanced Research and Projects Agency (ARPA) Technology Reinvestment Project has been funded to investigate the effects of manufacturing process improvements on the operating characteristics of face gears. The program is being conducted with McDonnell Douglas Helicopter Co., Lucas Western Inc., the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a NASA/U.S. Army team. The goal of the project is develop the grinding process, experimentally verify the improvement in face gear fatigue life, and conduct a full-scale helicopter transmission test. The theory and methodology to grind face gears has been completed, and manufacture of the test hardware is ongoing. Experimental verification on test hardware is scheduled to begin in fiscal 1996.

20050170431 General Electric Co., USA First Test of Fan Active Noise Control (ANC) Completed [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy With the advent of ultrahigh-bypass engines, the space available for passive acoustic treatment is becoming more limited, whereas noise regulations are becoming more stringent. Active noise control (ANC) holds promise as a solution to this problem. It uses secondary (added) noise sources to reduce or eliminate the offending noise radiation. The first active noise control test on the low-speed fan test bed was a General Electric Company system designed to control either the exhaust or inlet fan tone. This system consists of a ‘ring source,’ an induct array of error microphones, and a control computer. Fan tone noise propagates in a duct in the form of spinning waves. These waves are detected by the microphone array, and the computer identifies their spinning structure. The computer then controls the ‘ring source’ to generate waves that have the same spinning structure and amplitude, but 180 out of phase with the fan noise. This computer generated tone cancels the fan tone before it radiates from the duct and is heard in the far field. The ‘ring source’ used in these tests is a cylindrical array of 16 flat-plate acoustic radiators that are driven by thin piezoceramic sheets bonded to their back surfaces. The resulting source can produce spinning waves up to mode 7 at levels high enough to cancel the fan tone. The control software is flexible enough to work on spinning mode orders from -6 to 6. In this test, the fan was configured to produce a tone of order 6. The complete modal (spinning and radial) structure of the tones was measured with two builtin sets of rotating microphone rakes. These rakes provide a measurement of the system performance independent from the control system error microphones. In addition, the far-field noise was measured with a semicircular array of 28 microphones. This test represents the first in a series of tests that

5 demonstrate different active noise control concepts, each on a progressively more complicated modal structure. The tests are in preparation for a demonstration on a flight-type engine. Author Active Control; Aerodynamic Noise; Fan Blades; Aeroacoustics; Turbofan Engines

So I start with the basic physics of an airplane that can get those requirements, and that pretty much sizes an airplane... Then I look at the functionality... And then I try a lot of different configurations to meet that, and then justify one at a time, throwing them out... Typically I’ll have several different configurations... But I like to experiment, certainly. I like to see if there are other ways to provide the utility.

20050171017 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, Department of the Army, USA High-Temperature Magnetic Bearings for Gas Turbine Engines Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Magnetic bearings are the subject of a new NASA Lewis Research Center and U.S. Army thrust with significant industry participation, and coordination with other Government agencies. The NASA/Army emphasis is on high-temperature applications for future gas turbine engines. Magnetic bearings could increase the reliability and reduce the weight of these engines by eliminating the lubrication system. They could also increase the DN (diameter of the bearing times rpm) limit on engine speed and allow active vibration cancellation systems to be used--resulting in a more efficient, ‘more electric’ engine. Finally, the Integrated High-Performance Turbine Engine Technology (IHPTET) Program, a joint Department of Defense/ industry program, identified a need for a hightemperature (as high as 1200 F) magnetic bearing that could be demonstrated in a phase III engine. This magnetic bearing is similar to an electric motor. It has a laminated rotor and stator made of cobalt steel. Wound around the stator are a series of electrical wire coils that form a series of electric magnets around the circumference. The magnets exert a force on the rotor. A probe senses the position of the rotor, and a feedback controller keeps it in the center of the cavity. The engine rotor, bearings, and case form a flexible structure that contains a large number of modes. The bearing feedback controller, which could cause some of these modes to become unstable, could be adapted to varying flight conditions to minimize seal clearances and monitor the health of the system. Cobalt steel has a point greater than 1700 F, and copper wire has a melting point beyond that. Therefore, practical limitations associated with the maximum magnetic field strength in the cobalt steel and the stress in the rotating components limit the temperature to about 1200 F. The objective of this effort is to determine the limits in temperature and speed of a magnetic bearing operating in an engine. Our approach is to use our in-house experience in magnets, mechanical components, high-temperature materials, and surface lubrication to build and test a magnetic bearing in both a rig and an engine. Testing will be done at Lewis or through cooperative programs in industrial facilities. Derived from text Gas Turbine Engines; Magnetic Bearings; High Temperature; Engine Design

20050172103 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, MacNeal-Schwendler Corp., USA MSC/NASTRAN DMAP Alter Used for Closed-Form Static Analysis With Inertia Relief and Displacement-Dependent Loads Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 1 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: Other Sources; Abstract Only Solving for the displacements of free-free coupled systems acted upon by static loads is a common task in the aerospace industry. Often, these problems are solved by static analysis with inertia relief. This technique allows for a free-free static analysis by balancing the applied loads with the inertia loads generated by the applied loads. For some engineering applications, the displacements of the free-free coupled system induce additional static loads. Hence, the applied loads are equal to the original loads plus the displacement-dependent loads. A launch vehicle being acted upon by an aerodynamic

6 loading can have such applied loads. The final displacements of such systems are commonly determined with iterative solution techniques. Unfortunately, these techniques can be time consuming and labor intensive. Because the coupled system equations for free-free systems with displacement-dependent loads can be written in closed form, it is advantageous to solve for the displacements in this manner. Implementing closed-form equations in static analysis with inertia relief is analogous to implementing transfer functions in dynamic analysis. An MSC/NASTRAN (MacNeal-Schwendler Corporation/NASA Structural Analysis) DMAP (Direct Matrix Abstraction Program) Alter was used to include displacement-dependent loads in static analysis with inertia relief. It efficiently solved a common aerospace problem that typically has been solved with an iterative technique. Author Displacement; Inertia; Nastran; Static Loads; NASA Programs

20050172129 NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, Edwards, CA, USA Deflection-Based Structural Loads Estimation From the Active Aeroelastic Wing F/A-18 Aircraft Lizotte, Andrew M.; Lokos, William A.; May 2005; 27 pp.; In English; 46th AIAA/ASME/ASCE/AHS/ASC Structures, Structural Dynamics and Materials Conference, 18-21 Apr. 2005, Austin, TX, USA Contract(s)/Grant(s): WU 723-56-00-SE-PR Report No.(s): NASA/TM-2005-212871; H-2598; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Traditional techniques in structural load measurement entail the correlation of a known load with strain-gage output from the individual components of a structure or machine. The use of strain gages has proved successful and is considered the standard approach for load measurement. However, remotely measuring aerodynamic loads using deflection measurement systems to determine aeroelastic deformation as a substitute to strain gages may yield lower testing costs while improving aircraft performance through reduced instrumentation weight. This technique was examined using a reliable strain and structural deformation measurement system. The objective of this study was to explore the utility of a deflection-based load estimation, using the active aeroelastic wing F/A-18 aircraft. Calibration data from ground tests performed on the aircraft were used to derive left wing-root and wing-fold bending-moment and torque load equations based on strain gages, however, for this study, point deflections were used to derive deflection-based load equations. Comparisons between the strain-gage and deflection-based methods are presented. Flight data from the phase-1 active aeroelastic wing flight program were used to validate the deflection-based load estimation method. Flight validation revealed a strong bending-moment correlation and slightly weaker torque correlation. Development of current techniques, and future studies are discussed.

20050173137 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA How Will the Indian Military’s Upgrade and Modernization of Its ISR, Precision Strike, and Missile Defense Affect the Stability in Asia? Dewan, Jay P.; Mar. 2005; 89 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432223; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) India has made a concerted effort to upgrade its ISR, precision strike, and missile defense capabilities as it competes with China and Pakistan for regional power. The Phalcon Airborne Warning and Control System, Su-30MKI fighter-bomber aircraft, and S-300PMU surface-to-air missile system are some examples of the new capabilities India is acquiring. I argue that if India continues its military modernization, Pakistan will become more insecure. The increase in the conventional military capabilities gap will likely upset the existing balance of power in South Asia, leading to a regional arms race, lowering the nuclear threshold, and increasing instability in the region. The strategic stability/ tactical instability paradox that exists between two nuclear countries may lead them to engage in ‘small’ wars. India’s increasing military capabilities may encourage

7 it to conduct a preventive strike against Pakistan. In such a climate, a regional arms race eventually may lead Pakistan to establish a ‘hair-trigger’ nuclear posture. India’s effort to achieve a significantly superior conventional military force over Pakistan paradoxically may reduce Indian security by causing greater instability, and possibly lead to nuclear war. Regional stability is enhanced to the extent that there is a rough conventional military balance between India and Pakistan.

20050173269 Army Natick Soldier Center, Natick, MA USA The Pathfinder Raven Small Mawn, Andrew; Tokumaru, Phillip; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432526; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This paper provides an overview of the development of the Pathfinder Raven Small Unmanned Air Vehicle (SUAV) by the U.S. Army Natick Soldier Center and AeroVironment, Inc. The concept for this SUAV system was initially explored during the Military Operations in Urban Terrain (MOUT) Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration (ACTD) and brought to fruition during the Pathfinder ACTD. The spiral development process, the associated operational requirements and guiding principles used to quantify vehicle performance, physical characteristics, and methods of operation, are taken from the conceptual design stage to the current production aircraft. The Pathfinder Raven aircraft has undergone numerous design refinements and improvements in its evolution from concept to production. The current production Pathfinder Raven SUAV meets or exceeds the initial design objectives that could be boiled down to ‘do what a Pointer UAV does at half the size, cost, and weight.’ The production Pathfinder Raven SUAV is currently being used by U.S. Army and USA Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) forces in combat operations worldwide in the global war on terrorism.

Civil service and military managers involved in the management, support, and oversight of the EA-6B Improved Capability (ICAP) III Program should read this report because it discusses acquisition issues that must be addressed before the EA-6B ICAP III Program progresses further through the acquisition process. The Services use the airborne electronic attack capability to suppress and degrade an opposing force’s air defense and communication systems with airborne electronic jamming before offensive airborne strikes. The Navy’s EA-6B Prowler (EA-6B) is the only DoD platform that provides the Services with an airborne electronic attack capability and must be able to suppress and degrade current and future threats through 2015. The EA-6B ICAP III Program will provide the EA-6B aircraft with upgraded selective-reactive jamming and threat emitter geo-location capabilities. In June 2003, the Assistant Secretary of the Navy (Research, Development, and Acquisition) approved the program for low-rate initial production. The Program Manager for the EA-6B (the Program Manager) subsequently awarded the prime contractor, Northrop Grumman Integrated Systems, Bethpage, New York, a firm-fixedprice modification to the development contract for low-rate initial production of 10 ICAP III system kits for $102 million. The Navy plans to acquire 35 ICAP III system kits for installation on 35 EA-6B aircraft. As of June 2004, the ICAP III Program costs consisted of an estimated $335 million in research, development, test and evaluation funds, $458

8 million in procurement funds, and $109 million in operations and support funds for a total program cost of $902 million. DTIC Costs; Electronic Aircraft; Jamming; Telecommunication

20050173318 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Enhancement of the Daytime Goes-Based Aircraft Icing Potential Algorithm Using MODIS Alexander, Jeremy B.; Mar. 2005; 106 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432621; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In this thesis, a fuzzy logic algorithm is developed for the detection of potential aircraft icing conditions using the Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS). The fuzzy MODIS algorithm is developed in a manner similar to the cloud mask currently used to process MODIS imagery. The MODIS icing potential detection algorithm uses thresholds for 8 channels in a series of 12 tests to determine the probability of icing conditions being present within a cloud. The MODIS algorithm results were compared to results of the GOES icing potential detection algorithm run on MODIS imagery for 4 cases. When compared to positive and icing pilot reports for the cases, the MODIS algorithm identified regions where icing was encountered more effectively than the GOES algorithm. Furthermore, the use of fuzzy thresholds on MODIS rather than the hard thresholds of the GOES algorithm allowed for less restrictive coverage of potential icing conditions, making the MODIS algorithm more reasonable in assessing all cloud regions for icing potential. The results found here are preliminary, as further statistical analysis with a larger validation dataset would be more effective. Algorithm details are provided in the appendix for reference.

20050173409 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Determining the Fine Structure of the Entrainment Zone in Cloud-Topped Boundary Layers Horner, Michael S.; Mar. 2005; 93 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432817; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The objective of this thesis is to obtain a better understanding of cloud-top entrainment through an in-depth analysis of

9 entrainment-zone structure. In situ aircraft measurements taken during the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment (ASTEX) were used for this purpose. Using data collected from multiple cloud-top penetrations, the presence of an interfacial layer in-between the top of the cloud mixed-layer and the base of the free atmosphere is identified and consequently defined as the entrainment zone. The depth of the entrainment zone is on the order of tens of meters, where turbulence and sometimes cloud droplets are detectable. Inhomogeneous mixing was found to occur within the entrainment zone. Parcels of inversion-layer air and boundary-layer air are identified within the entrainment zone. Analyses suggest that turbulence intensity and cloud amount in the entrainment zone vary depending on the distribution of entrainment mixing fraction. Furthermore, continuous mixing in the entrainment zone appears to dissipate the upper-cloud layer. However, continuous dissipation of the upper-cloud layer has not been observed. Further study is needed to determine the interaction between boundary-layer dynamics.

UAVs can be lost or significantly damaged during the exploration process. Although employing multiple UAVs can increase the chance of success,

10 their efficiency depends on the collaboration strategies used. We present a cooperative exploration strategy for UAVs controlled by autonomous agents. The agents are sharing information, coordinate their short-term goals and path choices, while each agent uses state of the art algorithms for its individual path planning and obstacle avoidance. The overall goals are to minimize the exploration time, avoid damage by sharing information about threats, and be robust to the failures of individual UAVs. Extensive simulation results prove the validity of the approach and provide ways to determine the optimal number of UAVs for different exploration tasks.

With the long-promised arrival of the plasma display allowing ‘hang-on-the-wall?’ television, the display community has moved on to the promise of fully conformable displays, known as flexible displays. This touted new class of displays is not actually unique in itself but is actually an assortment of novel subclasses of existing display technologies. These technologies include liquid crystal, light emitting diode (LED) and electrophoresis. Flexible displays based on these technologies are advertised as thinner (almost paper thin), lighter weight, stronger (extremely rugged and durable), cheaper, super efficient and conformable, as compared to current rigid, mounted displays. Currently, organic LED (OLED) and electrophoretic displays are examples of flexible displays that have entered the commercial market. The aviation community may find these displays highly desirable for cockpit applications. However, care must taken to ensure that good human factors engineering principles are adhered to in such applications. DTIC Cockpits; Display Devices

20050169930 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Effect of Tabs on a Rectangular Nozzle Studied [2005]; 3 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy In a continuing research program, jets from nozzles of different geometries are being investigated with the aim of increasing mixing and spreading in those flows. Flow fields from nozzles with elliptic, rectangular, and other more complex cross-sectional shapes are being studied in comparison to circular nozzles over a wide Mach number range. As noted by previous researchers, noncircular jets usually spread faster than circular jets. Another technique being investigated to increase jet spreading even further for a given nozzle is the use of ‘tabs’ to generate vortices. A typical tab is a triangular-shaped protrusion placed at the nozzle exit, with the base of the triangle touching the nozzle wall and the apex leaning downstream at 45 to the stream direction. This geometry was determined by a parametric study to produce the optimum effect for a given area blockage. The tabs can increase jet spreading significantly. The underlying mechanism traces to a pair of counter-rotating

11 streamwise vortices originating from each tab. These vortex pairs persist in the flow; and with the appropriate number and strength, they can increase spreading. Author Nozzle Geometry; Nozzle Design; Supersonic Nozzles; Rectangles; Nozzle Flow; Jet Flow

20050173306 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Lexington, MA USA Small Polarimetric Adaptive Array for Airborne GPS Jammer Suppression Blejer, Dennis; Ngai, Eugene C.; Phuong, Tri T.; Mar. 2004; 6 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432593; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) MIT Lincoln Laboratory has designed, built, tested, and analyzed a small polarimetric adaptive array for airborne GPS jammer suppression. The array has 7 channels and is configured as a square array. The array consists of a right-hand circularly polarized (RHCP) reference element and 3 dual-linearly polarized elements. The rationale for the design was to create a 7-channel array with 1 RHCP reference element that had acceptable levels of mutual coupling and fit within a 7 inch by 7 inch footprint. The approach taken was to convert 3 of the 4 elements of a 4-element RHCP array to 3 dual-linearly polarized elements. This modification actually simplifies the construction of the array by eliminating 3 hybrid couplers. This modification results in up to 6 degrees of freedom for the polarimetric array. The concept of using dual-polarized elements in an adaptive array was considered by R.T. Compton, Jr. and presented in his text, Adaptive Antennas. He showed that using dual-polarized elements allows a polarization null to be directed towards an interfering source while receiving a desired signal that is co-linear with the interferer and the receiver, provided the desired signal and the interfering signal have somewhat different polarizations. He also showed that using an array with different element patterns can have better performance than an array of isotropic elements under certain conditions. This paper will concentrate on the measured performance of the small polarimetric adaptive array. The complex element patterns of the array were measured on a small ground plane in an MIT Lincoln Laboratory indoor chamber, and a few azimuthal patterns were measured with the array on a Falcon 20 aircraft in the Patuxent River Chamber.

Since the IRT already has the special water spray system required for aircraft icing experiments, no special visualization seeding material is required. The system has been used to visualize the changes in tip and leading edge vortices caused by ice accretion. Because the IRT’s icing spray is used as part of the visualization technique, changes in the flow patterns about a wing can be observed and measured during the ice accretion process.

Throughout the world, U.S. aerospace power and thus, the U.S. Air Force (USAF) plays a critical, and often primary, role in securing U.S. interests, in promoting American values, and in protecting human rights. While the USAF has had significant success in employing aerospace power in the recent past, emerging trends in international relations, in technology, and in our own domestic society will create a wide variety of new challenges and new opportunities for U.S. aerospace power. Meeting these challenges and exploiting these opportunities will require careful planning, wise investments, and thoughtful training, as well as difficult cultural adaptations within the USAF. This book identifies many of these challenges and opportunities in a wide variety of issue areas and assesses the degree to which the USAF is prepared to meet them. While the work was carried out under the auspices of the Strategy and Doctrine program of RAND’s Project AIR FORCE, which is sponsored by the U.S. Air Force, this volume draws on the expertise of researchers from across RAND in a variety of related disciplines. The primary audience of this work consists of Air Force leaders and planners, but it should be of interest to others concerned about national security issues.

20050173391 National War Coll., Washington, DC USA Mahan’s Elements of Sea Power Applied to the Development of Space Power France, Martin E.; Jan. 2000; 15 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432784; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) As of today, no definitive work on space power theory, comparable to the writings of Clausewitz, Mahan, Mitchell (and others in their respective fields), is recognized by military theorists. Though most preliminary space power writing in the USA has centered on space as a logical extension of air power theory (if for no other apparent reason than the organizational location of most space forces within the U.S. Air Force), such treatment is akin to early Army characterizations of aircraft as a tool of the artillery or signal corps, restricted to supporting ground operations. While space is certainly a unique operational setting that has yet to be fully exploited, it shares many characteristics with the sea as an arena for commerce, transport, observation and conflict. In fact, because of the distances involved, the importance of constantly safeguarding the free flow of global commerce (e.g. information) in both peace and war, and the more or less permanent basing of key civil and military assets in orbit, space power, missions and responsibilities have many analogs to the sea. Therefore, one would do well to consider first the earlier work of sea power theorists, specifically A.T. Mahan, when attempting to develop a theory of space power and to develop strategies for space control. DTIC Seas; Space Missions

Usually one can treat the problem by using two approaches. The first one is to use complicated 2D fluid dynamics codes with poor kinetics, second one is to use ID nozzle codes emphasizing the role of chemical kinetics in affecting the whole fluid-chemical problem. The second approach has been used by our group to characterize simple gases such as H2, N2, 02 and their mixtures. The peculiarity of our approach is to describe each vibrational level of the molecule as a new species thus avoiding the concept of vibrational temperature. This approach could be in principle extended to polyatomic molecules even though in this case the state tot state kinetics becomes a difficult problem. These concepts will be developed in the present proposal which deals with the characterization of the kinetics of NH3 through nozzles of different geometries. Our proposal consists of different steps including: 1) development of a realistic kinetics for ammonia decomposition, 2) development of a realistic macroscopic model for vibrational deactivation of polyatomic molecules, 3) evaluation of the dependence of rates on vibrational temperature 4) insertion of points 1-3 in the nozzle equations and 5) examination of results for different nozzle geometries.

20050173192 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Aerosol Scattering Phase Function Retrieval From Polar Orbiting Satellites Wunder, Daniel P.; Mar. 2005; 97 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432338; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The retrieval of an aerosol scattering phase function using a multi-satellite technique is proposed. A total of 33 phase functions were derived from 18 smoke cases and 15 dust cases. Each case was interrogated using four to nine satellite passes over the aerosol in a two to four hour time frame. The radiance values for the Red and Near-Infrared (NIR) channels were combined with backscattering angles to determine the shape of the scattering phase function. The radiance values were input into the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) aerosol model to determine optical depths and sample phase functions. A comparison was made between the actual phase functions retrieved and the NPS model phase functions. It was found that the phase functions for the smoke cases more closely matched the model phase functions than in the dust cases. Some conclusions could be drawn about the actual aerosol size and density distribution based on how well it matched the model phase function. Further analysis is necessary to define the exact size and number of the aerosol particles. Fully understanding the aerosol composition is crucial in determining its effects on military sensors and impacts to operations.

The model has been found to accurately reproduce the lifetimes observed from available accelerated GEO tests, and is also consistent with the existing orbital performance data. The model has been used to predict how properly designed and operated nickel-hydrogen battery lifetimes should depend on the operating environments

15 and charge control methods typically used in GEO operation. Lifetime is found to be strongly dependent on DOD (particularly at high operating DOD levels), amount of overcharge, trickle-charge rate, and operating temperature. In addition, the model finds a strong coupling between these wear-controlling parameters. The model suggests that with an optimized charge control system and optimized operating conditions, properly designed nickel-hydrogen batteries are capable of reliably providing over 30 years of GEO operation at a DOD of 70-75%. The results also indicate that careful optimization of charge control, operating temperature, and the maximum required DOD are needed to guarantee reliable operation beyond 10 years.

20050173262 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Fuel Optimal Low Thrust Trajectories for an Asteroid Sample Return Mission Rust, Jack W.; Mar. 2005; 75 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432514; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This thesis explores how an Asteroid Sample Return Mission might make use of solar electric propulsion to send a spacecraft on a journey to the asteroid 1989ML and back. It examines different trajectories that can be used to get an asteroid sample return or similar spacecraft to an interplanetary destination and back in the most fuel-efficient manner. While current plans call for keeping such a spacecraft on the asteroid performing science experiments for approximately 90 days, it is prudent to inquire how lengthening or shortening this time period may affect mission fuel requirements. Using optimal control methods, various mission scenarios have been modeled and simulated. The results suggest that the amount of time that the spacecraft may spend on the asteroid surface can be approximated as a linear function of the available fuel mass. Furthermore, It can be shown that as maximum available thrust is decreased, the radial component of the optimal thrust vector becomes more pronounced.

Semi-active control has advantages over active and passive control methods, since it provides almost as much capability as active control while requiring much less power. Its main disadvantage is its inherent nonlinearity, greatly complicating engineering design. The purpose of this research is to extend semi-active control vibration isolation tools and methods considering space launch and on-orbit systems.

The design goal is to minimize a performance objective of the system, while guaranteeing stability and proper performance for a range of uncertain plants. The performance objective is to minimize the translational response of the centrifuge rotor due to a fixed worst-case rotor imbalance. The robustness constraints are posed with respect to parametric uncertainty in the plant. The proposed approach to control design allows for both of these objectives to be handled within the framework of constrained optimization. The resulting controller achieves acceptable performance and robustness characteristics. DTIC Approach Control; Balancing; Centrifuges; International Space Station; Optimization; Rotary Wings

16 20050173461 Air Force Inst. of Tech., Wright-Patterson AFB, OH USA Impact of a Military Reusable Launch Vehicle on Dominant Maneuver and Focused Logistics Williams, Nanette M.; Jun. 2000; 58 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432917; AFIT/GMO/ENS/00E-13; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This study analyzes the role of a next-generation reusable launch vehicle (RLV) as a potential defense mobility platform for the future. RLV prototypes offer rapid transportation anywhere on the globe within one hour, with a significant cost reduction from today’s $10,000 per pound to $1,000 per pound of cargo through space. Unfortunately, extremely complex and time-consuming infrastructure and ground handling requirements hinder the usefulness of the RLV in a military environment. Joint Vision 2020 (JV2020) outlines operational concepts that mold warfighting capabilities to achieve full spectrum dominance in the future. Two of the operational concepts, dominant maneuver and focused logistics, shape mobility requirements and are used to evaluate the need for a military RLV. This project seeks to answer the question: ‘Could the next-generation RLV be a viable tool to support JV2020’s operational concepts of dominant maneuver and focused logistics?’ Based on this analysis, current RLV prototypes do not meet the majority of criteria established by JV2020’s dominant maneuver and focused logistics. However, if a military RLV were designed and produced specifically for defense transportation, it could potentially overcome the reliability and flexibility obstacles and become a key enabler toward full spectrum dominance.

As part of the continuing effort to advance the state-of-the-art in satellite communications and remote sensing systems, Lewis developed a low-cost, modular, programmable, and reconfigurable all-digital encoder-modulator (DEM) for medium- to high-data-rate radiofrequency communication links. The DEM is particularly well suited to high-data-rate downlinks to ground terminals or direct data downlinks from near-Earth science platforms. It can support data rates up to 250 megabits per second (Mbps) and several modulation schemes, including the traditional binary phase-shift keying (BPSK) and quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK) modes, as well as higher order schemes such as 8 phase-shift keying (8PSK) and 16 quadrature amplitude modulation (16QAM). The DEM architecture also can precompensate for channel disturbances and alleviate amplitude degradations caused by nonlinear transponder characteristics.

NASA has identified the development of an autonomously operating spacecraft as a necessity for an expanded program of missions exploring the Solar System. The versatile ASE spacecraft command and control, image formation, and science processing software was uploaded to the Earth Observer 1 (EO-1) spacecraft in early 2004 and has been undergoing onboard testing since May 2004 for the near real-time detection of surface modification related to transient geological and hydrological processes such as volcanism [4], ice formation and retreat [5], and flooding [6]. Space autonomy technology developed as part of ASE creates the new capability to autonomously detect, assess, react to, and monitor dynamic events such as flooding. Part of the challenge has been the difficulty to observe flooding in real time at sufficient temporal resolutions; more importantly, it is the large spatial extent of most drainage networks coupled with the size of the data sets necessary to be downlinked from satellites that make it difficult to monitor flooding from space. Below is a description of the algorithms (referred to as ASE Flood water Classifiers) used in tandem with the Hyperion spectrometer instrument on EO-1 to identify flooding and some of the test results.

20050169740 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Advanced Power Regulator Developed for Spacecraft [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The majority of new satellites generate electrical power using photovoltaic solar arrays and store energy in batteries for use during eclipse periods. Careful regulation of battery charging during insolation can greatly increase the expected lifetime of the satellite. The battery charge regulator is usually custom designed for each satellite and its specific mission. Economic competition in the small satellite market requires battery charge regulators that are lightweight, efficient, inexpensive, and modular enough to be used in a wide variety of satellites. A new battery charge regulator topology has been developed at the

19 NASA Lewis Research Center to address these needs. The new regulator topology uses industry-standard dc-dc converters and a unique interconnection to provide size, weight, efficiency, fault tolerance, and modularity benefits over existing systems. A transformer-isolated buck converter is connected such that the high input line is connected in series with the output. This ‘bypass connection’ biases the converter’s output onto the solar array voltage. Because of this biasing, the converter only processes the fraction of power necessary to charge the battery above the solar array voltage. Likewise, the same converter hookup can be used to regulate the battery output to the spacecraft power bus with similar fractional power processing. The advantages of this scheme are: 1) Because only a fraction of the power is processed through the dc-dc converter, the single- stage conversion efficiency is 94 to 98 percent; 2) Costly, high-efficiency dc-dc converters are not necessary for high end-to-end system efficiency; 3) The system is highly fault tolerant because the bypass connection will still deliver power if the dc-dc converter fails; and 4) The converters can easily be connected in parallel, allowing higher power systems to be built from a common building block. This new technology will be spaceflight tested in the Photovoltaic Regulator Kit Experiment (PRKE) on TRW’s Small Spacecraft Technology Initiative (SSTI) satellite scheduled for launch in 1996. This experiment uses commercial dc-dc converters (28 to 15 Vdc) and additional control circuitry to regulate current to a battery load. The 60-W, 87- percent efficiency converters can control 180 W of power at an efficiency of 94 percent in the new configuration. The power density of the Photovoltaic Regulator Kit Experiment is about 200 W/kg. Author Power Effõciency; Regulators; Small Satellite Technology; Electric Power

Even with the walls actively cooled by the fuel, the hot gases can deteriorate the walls severely and limit any possibility for reusing the combustion chamber. For many years, the NASA Lewis Research Center has performed subscale investigations of potential improved cooling concepts to extend the life and reliability of the combustion chamber. Results from previous subscale tests have shown that, by increasing the coolant channel height-to-width aspect ratio, the rocket combustion chamber hot gas side wall temperature can be reduced by as much as 28 percent, without an increase in the coolant pressure drop. Recently, a series of experiments were completed in Lewis’ Rocket Engine Test Facility (RETF) to validate the benefits of high aspect ratio cooling channels with a high-pressure, contoured rocket combustion chamber.

20 The Army is developing hypergolic, liquid and gelled bipropellants for a small, selectable-thrust, liquid rocket engine (LRE) that can power tactical missiles for both current and future combat systems. The use of gel propellants brings the advantages of selectable thrust and the promise of small engine size but also introduces new challenges in combustion control. One of these challenges is the efficient mixing of gelled oxidizer and fuel to obtain maximum performance from the LRE combustor without increasing the size of the engine. The Army’s impinging stream vortex engine, ISVE, offers an efficient alternative to increasing the combustion chamber volume of a LRE and has already generated excellent performance test data. Since the ISVE is a new concept, analytical models that relate engine performance to engine design parameters are just beginning to emerge. In order to fully exploit the performance that have been realized for the ISVE, it is desirable to understand the underlying flow physics of the engine. This paper describes the Army s effort to use multidimensional, multiphase computational fluid dynamics, combined with high-performance computers to generate simulations of the ISVE that reveal combustion patterns as well as predict chamber pressure and thrust levels for the engine. The goal is to utilize this computational tool to optimize the ISVE performance for a host of strategic Army missions. DTIC Liquid Propellant Rocket Engines; Missiles; Rocket Engines

In this portion of study we have focused on producing YSZ films on porous LSM substrates. When using the polymer precursor there are a number of obstacles to overcome in order to form dense electrolyte layers on porous substrates (cathode or anode). Probably the most difficult problems are: (1) Extreme penetration of the polymer into the substrate must be prevented. (2) Shrinkage cracking must be avoided. (3) Film thickness in the 1 to 5(micro)m range must be achieved. We have demonstrated that cracking due to shrinkage involved during the elimination of solvents and organic matter and densification of the remaining oxide is not a problem as long as the resulting oxide film is \h (approx) 0.15 (micro)m in thickness. We have also shown that we can make thicker films by making multiple depositions if the substrate is smooth (roughness (le) 0.1 (micro)m) and contains no surface pores \g 0.2 (micro)m.

21 The chemical state and distribution of Cu-rich clusters were determined in four different silicon-based materials with varying contamination pathways and degrees of oxygen concentration, including as-grown multicrystalline silicon. In all four samples, Cu3Si was the only chemical state observed. Cu3Si clusters were observed at structural defects within all four materials; XBIC measurements revealed that the presence of Cu3Si corresponds to increased recombination activity. Oxidized Cu compounds are not likely to form in silicon. The +1 eV edge shift in the -XAS absorption spectrum of Cu3Si relative to Cu metal is believed to be an indication of a degree of covalent bonding between Cu atoms and their silicon neighbors.

It assesses the current status of commercially available modules, most of which use silicon wafers or ribbons. My analysis will show that the choice of Si wafers or substrates, once deemed to be the most important aspect, ended up making only negligible differences for commercial products, as long as cells are prepared by diffusion and screen printing. I will also address the prospects and requirements for both next generation thin-film modules and super-high (\g20%) efficient commercial crystalline Si cells. It is shown that traditional recombination loss analyses provide a poor tool for understanding limitations of cell and module performance, because those analytical schemes ignore dominating interactions between different loss mechanisms (e.g., of surface and bulk recombination).

U.; 2004; 48 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834065; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge This project has three main goals: Thin Films Studies, Preparation of Graded Porous Substrates and Basic Electrical Characterization and Testing of Planar Single Cells. During this time period substantial progress has been made in developing low temperature deposition techniques to produce dense, nanocrystalline yttrium-stabilized zirconia films on both dense oxide and polymer substrates. Progress has been made in the preparation and characterization of thin electrolytes and porous LSM substrates. Both of these tasks are essentially on or ahead of schedule. In our proposal, we suggested that the ZrO(sub 2)/Sc system needed to be considered as a candidate as a thin electrolyte. This was because microcrystalline ZrO(sub 2)/Sc has a significantly higher ionic conductivity than YSZ, particularly at the lower temperatures. As a result, some 0.5 micron thick film of ZrO(sub 2)/16% Sc on an alumina substrate (grain size 20nm) was prepared and the electrical conductivity measured as a function of temperature and oxygen activity.

The surface chemistry of interstellar diamonds has been studied to much lesser extent, in spite of the fact that, due to the small size of diamond grains (2-4 nm) and their large surface to volume ratio, the surface species can represent a substantial part of grain material. Information about surface chemistry of diamond grains is important for the following reasons. First, the possibility exists that at least some extraterrestrial surface features of nanodiamonds may have survived [3]. If so, diamond grains with different history may reveal different surface chemistry. Second, surface species on diamond nanograins may be responsible for some of the IR absorption features observed in spectra of the interstellar medium [4,5] and it is necessary to know the relation between surface chemistry and optical properties of nanodiamonds.

The heat capacities of the Tm-based compounds are in general larger than the corresponding Er-based materials. Many of them have heat capacities which are significantly larger than those of the low temperature (\h15 K) prototype cryocooler regenerator materials HoCu(sub 2), Er(sub 3)Ni and ErNi.

This thesis borrows the ideas and techniques suggested for identifying air threats in the Air Defense Laboratory (ADL) and employ them to identify asymmetric maritime threats in port and waterways. Each surface track is monitored by a compound multi-agent system that comprise of the several intent models, each containing a nested multi-agent system. The attributes that define intent models of friendly, neutral, unknown and potentially hostile surface contacts are obtained from movement and communication protocols defined by the Vessel Traffic

23 Information System (VTIS), maritime navigation rules and cues for surface warfare threat assessment. The underlying cognitive mechanism of the models is conceptual blending. The study includes a simulation of a mock VTS for the port of Singapore and surrounding waterways to test the ability of the models to compress data and information regarding multiple simulated surface contacts into integration networks and then determine the surface contacts’ intent through the expansion of the integration networks.

Our goal is to assess the accuracy of DFT when applied to organic molecular crystals (such as energetic materials) as scientists are beginning to include this methodology in energetic materials research without knowledge of the limitations of the method. Intramolecular distances, simple angles, and band gaps are converged at plane wave cutoff energies of 430 to 495 eV. Cell parameters were determined over a range of values from 280 eV to 700 or 800 eV, depending upon the system. Lattice vectors, however, display large errors in the range of 0.2 to 1.0, and a very slow convergence on basis set size. We hypothesize the error in the lattice vectors is due to a lack of van der Waals forces in current DFT functionals. This deficiency will have unforeseen consequences on all crystal calculations for organic molecules, and therefore caution should be employed whenever interpreting results obtained from the current DFT functionals available in solid state codes. To properly describe the electronic structure of these types of crystals, these results suggest the need for new methods involving DFT to be developed which include accurate dispersion forces.

S.; Murtaza, G.; IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, Volume 1; [1999], pp. 674-677; In English; See also 20050169565; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Over the years, optical fibre sensors have been developed for many application areas. One potentially interesting application for this type of sensor is in the detection of radio frequency electric fields. By constructing such a sensor from totally dielectric materials, it may be used as an antenna for receiving radio frequency transmissions without distorting or disturbing the field lines since there are no metallic components to reflect or transmit radio frequency energy. This type of antenna has the potential of wide bandwidth and high sensitivity. In addition, it offers other advantages over conventional

24 antennae such as intrinsic safety in hazardous environments as well as geometrical flexibility which enables its use in smart structure systems. It has been shown that the optical phase shift of light propagating in a singlemode optical fibre coated with a piezoelectric plastic jacket can be modulated by an applied voltage. Piezoelectric polymers such as Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) have been shown to respond to frequencies approaching 20GHz. Such an electric field sensing device consists of a singlemode (silica) optical fibre coated with a transversely poled jacket that is placed between parallel plate electrodes. Application of a voltage to create an electric field between the metal electrodes induces strains in the piezoelectric jacket due to the converse piezoelectric effect. The strains in the jacket are directly transmitted to the glass fibre. The strain-induced changes in refractive index and length of the fibre produce a phase shift of the lightwave propagating in the fibre core which provides a measure of the applied electrical field. An alternative to the conventional pVDF coated circular fibre as the sensing element is a PVDF coated D-fibre. Optical D-fibres have a D-shaped cross-section. Main advantage of D-fibre, as shown, is the closeness of the guiding region to the flat surface of the fibre, thus making it particularly attractive for sensing applications. Most of the work with conventional circular singlemode optical fibre electric field sensors employing piezoelectric polymer coatings has remained focused on theoretical and experimental characterisation of these devices which can be expensive and time consuming. However, an assessment of the response of the device can be made by using commercially available finite element analysis (FEA) software, with the obvious time and expense benefits. Utilising the finite element method also allows initial test simulations to be performed to study the device structure in order to achieve an optimized design prior to fabrication. Whilst mathematical modelling has proved a valuable tool for studying the response of electric field sensors based on conventional circularly symmetric optical fibres, the complex geometrical structure of the D-fibre does not allow the development of a straight-forward analytical model. FEA provides a suitable alternative in characterizing the response of the D-fibre sensor. This work describes, for the first time, the novel approach of using FEA to simulate the response of a optical D-fibre antenna. A wide frequency response from 100Hz to 50MHz of the phase shift induced in a D-shaped optical fibre jacketed with a transversely polarized piezoelectric material is presented.

20050169926 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA DMBZ Polyimides Provide an Alternative to PMR-15 for High-Temperature Applications [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy PMR-15, a high-temperature polyimide developed in the mid-1970’s at the NASA Lewis Research Center, offers the combination of ease of processing, low cost, and good stability and performance at temperatures up to 288 C (500 F). This material is widely regarded as one of the leading high-temperature matrix resins for polymer-matrix-composite aircraft engine components. PMR-15 is widely used in both military and civilian aircraft engines. The current worldwide market for PMR-15 is on the order of 50,000 lb, with a total sales of around $5 to $10 million. However, PMR-15 is made from methylene dianiline (MDA), a known animal mutagen and a suspected human mutagen. Recent concerns about the safety of workers involved in the manufacture and repair of PMR-15 components have led to the implementation of costly protective measures to limit worker exposure and ensure workplace safety. In some cases, because of safety and economic concerns, airlines have eliminated PMR-15 components from engines in their fleets. Current efforts at Lewis are focused on developing suitable replacements for PMR-15 that do not contain mutagenic constituents and have processability, stability, and mechanical properties comparable to that of PMR-15. A recent development from these efforts is a new class of thermosetting polyimides based on 2,2’-dimethylbenzidine (DMBZ). Autoclave processing developed for PMR-15 composites was used to prepare low-void-content T650-35 carbon-fiber-reinforced laminates from DMBZ-15 polyimides. The glass transition temperatures of these laminates were about 50 C higher than those of the T650- 35/PMR-15 composites (400 versus 348 C). In addition, DMBZ-15 polyimide composites aged for 1000 hr in air at 288 C (500 F) had weight losses close to those of comparable PMR-15 laminates (0.9 versus 0.7 percent). The elevated (288 C) and room temperature mechanical properties of T650-35-reinforced DMBZ-15 polyimide and PMR-15 laminates were comparable. Standard Ames tests are being conducted on this diamine to assess its mutagenicity.

20050170432 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Fully Associative, Nonisothermal, Potential-Based Unified Viscoplastic Model for Titanium-Based Matrices [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy A number of titanium matrix composite (TMC) systems are currently being investigated for high-temperature air frame and propulsion system applications. As a result, numerous computational methodologies for predicting both deformation and

25 life for this class of materials are under development. An integral part of these methodologies is an accurate and computationally efficient constitutive model for the metallic matrix constituent. Furthermore, because these systems are designed to operate at elevated temperatures, the required constitutive models must account for both time-dependent and time-independent deformations. To accomplish this, the NASA Lewis Research Center is employing a recently developed, complete, potential-based framework. This framework, which utilizes internal state variables, was put forth for the derivation of reversible and irreversible constitutive equations. The framework, and consequently the resulting constitutive model, is termed complete because the existence of the total (integrated) form of the Gibbs complementary free energy and complementary dissipation potentials are assumed a priori. The specific forms selected here for both the Gibbs and complementary dissipation potentials result in a fully associative, multiaxial, nonisothermal, unified viscoplastic model with nonlinear kinematic hardening. This model constitutes one of many models in the Generalized Viscoplasticity with Potential Structure (GVIPS) class of inelastic constitutive equations.

Analytical models that predict the effective behavior of composites are used not only by engineers in performing structural analysis of large-scale composite components but also by material scientists in developing new material systems. For an analytical model to fulfill these two distinct functions, it must be based on a micromechanics approach that uses physically based deformation and life constitutive models, and it must allow one to generate the average (macro) response of a composite material given the properties of the individual constituents and their geometric arrangement. Only then can such a model be used by a material scientist to investigate the effect of different deformation mechanisms on the overall response of the composite and, thereby, identify the appropriate constituents for a given application. However, if a micromechanical model is to be used in a large-scale structural analysis it must be (1) computationally efficient, (2) able to generate accurate displacement and stress fields at both the macro and micro level, and (3) compatible with the finite element method. In addition, new advancements in processing and fabrication techniques now make it possible to engineer the architectures of these advanced composite systems. Full utilization of these emerging manufacturing capabilities require the development of a computationally efficient micromechanics analysis tool that can accurately predict the effect of microstructural details on the internal and macroscopic behavior of composites. Computational efficiency is required because (1) a large number of parameters must be varied in the course of engineering (or designing) composite materials and (2) the optimization of a material’s microstructure requires that the micromechanics model be integrated with optimization algorithms. From this perspective, analytical approaches that produce closed-form expressions which describe the effect of a material’s internal architecture on the overall material behavior are preferable to numerical methods such as the finite element or finite difference schemes.

Under proper consolidation conditions the SAM and SAM matrix composites were expected to exhibit shear localization under high strain rate conditions, the preferred failure mechanism in kinetic energy penetrator material. The results for amorphous Vitreloy 106a powder show that essentially full density can be achieved after one ECAE pass at temperatures of Tg and higher. Significant particle-to-particle bonding is evident from optical microscopy, Vickers microhardness indentations, mechanical testing and SEM analysis. Retention of amorphous character in the consolidate is demonstrated by XRD, DSC and shear banding. Effective consolidation is a result of the combined action of compaction and simple shear caused by the ECAE process. The results demonstrate that ECAE is a viable processing method for producing bulk amorphous metal () and BAM matrix crystalline metal particulate composites. 14.

In previous years, a small number of proof-of-concept studies based on endocrine-disrupting modes of action were initiated; and general framework for a larger program was established. The framework laid out three general objectives for the program: (1) improving the linkages in the source-outcome paradigm; (2) providing tools for screening and prioritization of chemicals under regulatory review; and (3) enhancing quantitative risk assessment. The CompTox Program is now moving from primarily from a planning phase to an implementation phase. In FY04 the endocrine disruptor proof-of-concept projects advanced through completion of the development of an estrogen reporter cell line to complement the androgen receptor cell line developed previously, refinement of QSAR models for receptor binding, and development of an in vitro cell based assay for steroidogenesis. Three cell-based assays are scheduled for scale-up production against a larger set of chemicals in FY05. Ten existing intramural research projects received funding to apply genomic, metabonomic, or computational tools in an effort to quickly expand the program beyond the endocrine-disruptor domain.

This demand for information about chemistry at extreme conditions comes from many fields. The study of atmospheric chemistry requires knowledge of unusual species that are formed when molecules are exposed to ultraviolet radiation. Studying of energetic materials requires knowledge of the thermochemical and structural properties of a myriad of chemical species under a wide range of temperatures. Basic scientific

28 understanding of the very nature of a chemical requires detailed information. Studying these problems computationally requires multiple capabilities. The methodology used must provide both high accuracy and computational efficiency. Studying extreme chemistry also suffers from all the challenges of studying chemistry under non-extreme conditions. Therefore, either a new method must be developed or an old method must be applied in an innovative way. The method we have chosen to use is path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) for the nuclear degrees of freedom and ab initio electronic structure methods for the electronic degrees of freedom. PIMC and ab initio electronic structure are methods of treating the quantum nature of particles. These methods have been chosen, because an accurate treatment requires treating both the electrons and the nuclei as quantum particles.

N.; Martin, M. C.; Mckinney, W. R.; 2004; 38 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834624; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge Synchrotron radiation-based Fourier transform infrared (SR-FTIR) spectromicroscopy is a newly emerging bioanalytical and imaging tool. This unique technique provides mid-infrared (IR) spectra, hence chemical information, with high signal-to-noise at spatial resolutions as fine as 3 to 10 microns. Thus it enables researchers to locate, identify, and track specific chemical events within an individual living mammalian cell. Mid-IR photons are too low in energy (0.05 - 0.5 eV) to either break bonds or to cause ionization. In this review, we show that the synchrotron IR beam has no detectable effects on the short- and long-term viability, reproductive integrity, cell-cycle progression, and mitochondrial metabolism in living human cells, and produces only minimal sample heating (lesser than 0.5 degrees C). We will then present several examples demonstrating the application potentials of SR-FTIR spectromicroscopy in biomedical research. These will include monitoring living cells progressing through the cell cycle, including death, and cells reacting to dilute concentrations of toxins.

S.; 2004; 16 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834610; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge In our first explorations we chose to use a tetradentate macrocyclic ligand, tetra(2-carbamoylethyl)-1,4,8,11- tetraazacyclotetradecane (4cyclam), to provide strong metal ion binding, with four appended arms that terminate in amide functions to provide hydrogen bonding with corresponding groups in the polymer. Nickel(II) ion was chosen for these studies because of the kinetic inertness of the square planar complexes it forms with tetraazamacrocycles. Because covalent interactions tend to involve slow kinetics we use those that are non-covalent for the affinity between the MIP and the imprinting metal complex. The immediate issue is ‘can non-covalent interactions be strong enough to produce the proposed new methodology’. The literature indicates that imprinting using, for example, hydrogen bonding supports only 10 to 15%, certainly less than 20%, re-binding capacity. An equally compelling issue is the relationship of the combined advantages of selective complex formation and selective binding of the complex to the polymer. NTIS Hydrogen Bonds; Covalence; Amides

The 2-D imager operates with a scan mirror, forming image scenes over time intervals of 10-20 minutes. Sensor calibration was conducted in the laboratory, and the system response to Sulfur Dioxide (SO2) gas was determined. The absorption profile for SO2 was measured, and curves of growth were constructed as a function of gas concentration. Test measurements were performed at the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), from the roof of Spanagel Hall. Field observations were conducted at a coal-burning factory site at Concord, CA with the purpose of quantifying the presence of SO2. The Concord field measurement showed traces of SO2, with further analysis still required.

20050173166 Edgewood Chemical Biological Center, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD USA Toxicity of a Hydrogen Peroxide-Based Decontamination Solution (Decon Green) in Water and Soil Extracts Haley, Mark V.; Kurnas, Carl W.; Checkai, Ronald T.; Turley, Steven D.; Osborn, Michelle A.; , Dennis T.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432275; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The U.S. Army has developed a hydrogen peroxide-based decontaminating solution, Decon Green (DG). The components

30 of the decon solution are less hazardous to the end-user and the environment than standard decon solutions that are in the current inventory. Toxicity studies were conducted as direct amendments of DG into water, and into soil. Aquatic organisms were exposed directly to water amended with DG. Soils amended with DG were subjected to an Adapted Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure (ATCLP) in order to produce exposure solutions. In addition, we performed corresponding toxicity investigations using DG solution tat was allowed to age. Overall, Vibrio fischeri was less sensitive to DG than D. magna and C. dubia by approximately one order of magnitude. Provisional data indicate that 5-min EC50 for Vibrio fischeri was 200 ppm (vol/vol), and the 48-hr EC50 for D. magna and C. dubia were 26 and 25 ppm (vol/vol), respectively; IC50 for C. dubia exposed to DG directly amended into water was 28 ppm (vol/vol), while IC50 for C. dubia exposed to extracts of soils amended with GD was 2400 ppm (mass/mass; in soil). Based on acute aquatic toxicity, DG was substantially less toxic to these organisms than traditional decontamination solutions. DTIC Decontamination; Hydrogen Peroxide; Soils; Toxicity; Water

Emissions samples were collected from the furnace exhaust system on a small arms deactivation furnace at Tooele Army Depot, Tooele, Utah. The samples collected were analyzed using standard U.S. Environmental Protection Agency methods and other laboratory chemical and physical methods to obtain particulate size distribution and to identify lead and cadmium species. Results show that lead is a major component of the particulate matter while antimony is a distant seconds. Lead oxides and carbonates are the dominant species. Cadmium is not a major component in the emissions for the two munitions deactivated. The results showed that nearly 45-58% of the particulate emissions are of particulate matter PM2.5.

20050173241 Army Center for Environmental Health Research, Fort Detrick, MD USA A Residual Chlorine Removal Method to Allow Drinking Water Monitoring by Biological Early Warning Systems VAN DER Schalie, Willian H.; Trader, David E.; Widder, Mark W.; Shedd, Tommy R.; Brennan, Linda M.; Mar. 2005; 30 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432455; TR-0501; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Aquatic biomonitors can provide continuous, real-time monitoring for toxicity in source water supplies, but they cannot be used to directly monitor chlorinated drinking waters because of aquatic organism sensitivity to residual chlorine. The threshold for a toxicity alarm by a biomonitor using bluegills (Lepomis macrochirus) was between 0.015 and 0.066 mg/L total residual chlorine (TRC). A portable dechlorinator that injected 6 mg/L sodium bisulfite into water containing 1.5 to 2.0 mg/L TRC was effective in removing TRC-related toxicity during a nine month evaluation at a water treatment plant. Three biomonitor alarms that occurred were not caused by dechlorinator malfunctions. In one-hour laboratory exposures to sodium bisulfite alone, the biomonitor did not respond until concentrations exceeded 48 mg/L. This study demonstrated the feasibility of using a biomonitor in conjunction with a portable dechlorinator for continuous monitoring of chlorinated drinking waters. Future studies should evaluate dechlorinator suitability in waters with total organic carbon levels exceeding 2 mg/L or that have been disinfected with chloramines.

20050173295 Innovative Scientific Solutions, Inc., Dayton, OH USA Ionization Rates and Charge Production in Hydrocarbon Fuels Jiao, C. Q.; DeJoseph Jr, C. A.; Garscadden, A.; Oct. 2003; 9 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432572; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In fuel air mixtures the electron energy distribution function (EEDF) is dominated by the effects of the nitrogen momentum transfer and inelastic collisions. However the ionization potential of the hydrocarbons, n-octane and n-decane, are about 11.7 eV and 10.2 eV respectively whereas the nitrogen ionization potential is 15.5eV. Therefore the total ionization rate at higher fuel ratios can be dominated by ionization of the fuel. On the other hand in vitiated air, nitric oxide is produced and it has an even lower ionization potential. If NO (ionization potential 9.25 eV) is present in small quantities, it will also be an important source of ionization even though the EEDF is still controlled by nitrogen. The charge transfer rates also lead to ionization of the lowest ionization potential species. Charged-particle collisions contribute to the ignition process by producing radicals, cracking the fuel molecules, and increasing the gas temperature through heat released from exothermic reactions. This paper presents our studies using Fourier-transform mass spectrometry (FTMS) on the fuel compounds, n-octane and decane and nitromethane. We have measured their electron impact ionization and gas-phase ion-molecule reactions. Calibration using argon allowed absolute ionization cross-sections and charge exchange rates of cracked ions with the parent molecules to be obtained. Ion-molecule reactions proceed much more rapidly than neutral radical-molecule reactions and therefore will be important at sufficient ionization fraction in the breakdown and expansion phases of the spark ignition process. The power into the plasma is given by the product of the voltage (time) and current (time) and it is important to measure accurately the phase between these two parameters in order to quantify the energy input.

20050173416 Army Construction Engineering Research Lab., Champaign, IL USA Solubility and Phase Behavior of CL20 and RDX in Supercritical Carbon Dioxide Boddu, Veera M.; Toghiani, Rebecca K.; Damavarapu, Reddy; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432831; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) CL20, a high-energy explosive compound, is a polyazapolycyclic caged polynitramine (2,4,6,8,10,12- Hexanitro- 2,4,5,8,10,12-hexaazaisowurtzitane). The combustion and detonation characteristics of CL20 can be improved if it is formed into nanoparticles of uniform size. A new, promising process for particulation of materials utilizes environmentally benign compressed gases as either solvents or anti-solvents. Predictive models are required to describe the solubility and phase behavior of supercritical solutions of CL20 and supercritical carbon dioxide and for process simulation and development. Here, the solubility of CL20 in supercritical carbon dioxide was evaluated using the Peng-Robinson cubic equation of state. Critical properties, vapor pressure, and other required thermodynamic properties were estimated using a variety of available estimation techniques. A Fortran program to predict the solubility of CL20 was developed during the course of this project. The program was validated using available literature data for the solubility of naphthalene and of biphenyl in supercritical carbon dioxide. The applicability of the estimation techniques employed for the critical properties for CL20 was established using these same techniques to estimate the critical properties of comparable compounds, including RDX and HMX. Solubility data for RDX in supercritical carbon dioxide reported in the literature were also used to establish the validity of the estimation approach. Solubility was predicted over the temperature range of 305.15 to 368.15 K and over the pressure range of 74 to 150 atm. In general, as the temperature increases, the solubility decreases, while as the pressure increases, the solubility increases. DTIC Carbon Dioxide; Explosives; Hmx; RDX; Solubility

I.; Mar. 2005; 20 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432856; ARL-TR-3443; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) A series of computer studies showing the effect of cyanide (CN) on the electrophysiology of cardiac tissue is presented. A mathematical model of the electrophysiology of cardiac tissue, with initial and boundary conditions based on experimental data from studies using CN as metabolic blockers from the literature, was used to simulate changes in the electrical activity of the heart. Emphasis was on the modulation of ion concentrations in the cells, changes in current magnitudes, and the activation of currents that are dormant under normal circumstances. These calculations showed for the first time: (1) disturbance of the energy homeostasis and ion concentrations in cardiac tissue due to CN results in the reversal of the direction from the normal and change in magnitudes of cellular membrane currents. These, in turn, change the morphology of the action potential and the electrocardiogram (ECG). This is the initial step leading to ventricular fibrillation, the usual endpoint in the effect of CN on the heart. (2) CN causes cell swelling and hemorrhaging in cardiac tissue. Cell swelling activates chloride membrane currents affecting homeostasis of the tissue. These effects were shown to be important for the electrical state of the CN-affected tissue and were included for the first time in a model of CN-affected cardiac tissue. (3) The calculations reproduced aspects of the changes in an ECG of a subject under the effect of a lethal dose of CN. (4) The obtained results

33 suggest and define the characteristics required of a pharmacological intervention needed to overcome or reverse CN poisoning, of vital importance for development of therapeutics for force protection. Primarily, such intervention needs to reduce the calcium overload of the cardiac cell, restore the depolarizing sodium current, and alleviate the accumulation of potassium ions exterior to the cell.

This code minimizes Gibbs energy using reaction variables, in contrast to other major codes like BRL-Blake, BRCBagheera and NASA-CEA that use composition variables such as mole numbers. The CERV code has significant advantages in handling compressible condensed species with phase transitions and computing non-ideal mixture compositions accurately and efficiently. Computations are done robustly, without convergence failures from matrix inversions or iterative procedures, for problems with reaction products consisting of hundreds of gaseous, liquid and solid species.

D.; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432912; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) ARL has recently made discoveries in the area of interior ballistic propellant combustion product interactions with a gun tube bore. These discoveries were based on two hypotheses. The first was that the products could and are dynamically nitriding the bore of the gun, thus creating a nitride coating which inhibits the dissociation of CO and subsequently reducing the amount of carbon uptake. The second was that the combustion products richer in nitrogen have a lower temperature upon expansion in our experimental fixture as well as in a gun barrel. This is due to Joule and or Joule-Thomson cooling effects. Both of these hypotheses were proven and validated through numerical and experimental methods. Higher nitrogen containing combustion products have definitively been shown to have relatively lower erosivity with respect to those having lower nitrogen content. These results have revolutionized the gun propellant development community in that for the first time there is guidance for erosivity control through propellant chemical constituent formulation.

34 A model, including detailed gas phase chemistry previously applied to nitrate ester and nitramine solid propellants and their major ingredients, has been successfully applied to the pure energetic ingredient nitroguanidine and to M30, a triple base propellant which contains nitroguanidine. This is the first modeling of either based on a detailed gas phase mechanism. Computed burning rates are in reasonable agreement with experiment. Predicted flame structures indicate the unusual result that no dark zone forms even at low pressure (0.5 MPa), are in agreement with experiment; detailed chemical analysis conclusively indicates the lack of a dark zone is due to rapid gas phase reactions of NH and NH2 species with NO. Our expansion of the universe of ingredients successfully modeled with our approach bodes well for its use in formulation science and its transfer, as reduced versions, into interior ballistics weapons development codes.

Miosis was defined as at least a 50% reduction in pupil diameter relative to baseline measurements. Contrary to Haber’s Rule, median effective dosages (ECT(sub 50)’s) increased with increasing exposure durations (i.e., the CT for 50% of the exposed population to show miosis was not constant over time). Ordinal regression was used to develop an empirical toxic load model for predicting VX vapor induced miosis by defining the relationship between C and T with a VX specific, toxic load exponent (n) in the equation: C(exp n)xT=k. Female rats were more sensitive than male rats to the miotic effects of VX vapor. Statistically significant acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibition was detected at the higher concentrations of each exposure time. A VX-G analog assay successfully used rat blood plasma as a biomarker for VX exposure. A general relationship between increasing dose (CT) and increasing amounts of VX-G in the plasma was found.

In the 21st century, the world faces the critical challenge of providing abundant, cheap electricity to meet the needs of a growing global population while at the same time preserving environmental values. Most studies of this issue conclude that a robust portfolio of generation technologies and fuels should be developed to assure that the USA will have adequate electricity supplies in a variety of possible future scenarios. The use of coal for electricity generation poses a unique set of challenges. On the one hand, coal is plentiful and available at low cost in much of the world, notably in the U.S., China, and India. Countries with large coal reserves will want to develop them to foster economic growth and energy security. On the other hand, traditional methods of coal combustion emit pollutants and CO(sub 2) at high levels relative to other generation options. Maintaining coal as a generation option in the 21st century will require methods for addressing these environmental issues. This project has established a government/industry consortium to undertake a five-year effort to evaluate and develop of advanced materials that allow the use of advanced steam cycles in coal-based power plants. These advanced cycles, with steam temperatures up to 760 C, will increase the efficiency of coal-fired boilers from an average of 35% efficiency (current domestic fleet) to 47% (HHV). This efficiency increase will enable coal-fired power plants to generate electricity at competitive rates (irrespective of fuel costs) while reducing CO(sub 2) and

35 other fuel-related emissions by as much as 29%. Success in achieving these objectives will support a number of broader goals. First, from a national prospective, the program will identify advanced materials that will make it possible to maintain a cost-competitive, environmentally acceptable coal-based electric generation option. High sulfur coals will specifically benefit in this respect by having these advanced materials evaluated in high-sulfur coal firing conditions and from the significant reductions in waste generation inherent in the increased operational efficiency. Second, from a national prospective, the results of this program will enable domestic boiler manufacturers to successfully compete in world markets for building high-efficiency coal-fired power plants.

20050169941 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Fatigue Behavior and Deformation Mechanisms in Inconel 718 Superalloy Investigated [2005]; 3 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The nickel-base superalloy Inconel 718 (IN 718) is used as a structural material for a variety of components in the space shuttle main engine (SSME) and accounts for more than half of the total weight of this engine. IN 718 is the bill-of-material for the pressure vessels of nickel-hydrogen batteries for the space station. In the case of the space shuttle main engine, structural components are typically subjected to startup and shutdown load transients and occasional overloads in addition to high-frequency vibratory loads from routine operation. The nickel-hydrogen battery cells are prooftested before service and are subjected to fluctuating pressure loads during operation. In both of these applications, the structural material is subjected to a monotonic load initially, which is subsequently followed by fatigue. To assess the life of these structural components, it is necessary to determine the influence of a prior monotonic load on the subsequent fatigue life of the superalloy. An insight into the underlying deformation and damage mechanisms is also required to properly account for the interaction between the prior monotonic load and the subsequent fatigue loading. An experimental investigation was conducted to establish the effect of prior monotonic straining on the subsequent fatigue behavior of wrought, double-aged, IN 718 at room temperature. First, monotonic strain tests and fully-reversed, strain-controlled fatigue tests were conducted on uniform-gage-section IN 718 specimens. Next, fully reversed fatigue tests were conducted under strain control on specimens that were monotonically strained in tension. Results from this investigation indicated that prior monotonic straining reduced the fatigue resistance of the superalloy particularly at the lowest strain range. Some of the tested specimens were sectioned and examined by transmission electron microscopy to reveal typical microstructures as well as the active deformation and damage mechanisms under each of the loading conditions. In monotonically strained specimens, deformation during the subsequent fatigue loading was mainly confined to the deformation bands initiated during the prior monotonic straining. This can cause dislocations to move more readily along the previously activated deformation bands and to pile up near grain boundaries, eventually making the grain boundaries susceptible to fatigue crack initiation. The mechanisms inferred from the microstructural investigation were extremely valuable in interpreting the influence of prior monotonic straining on the subsequent fatigue life of Inconel 718 superalloy.

L.; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 337-346; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Historically, the semiconductor industry has made chip speed the focus of its high performance CMOS logic development strategy. For the wires and insulators used in the back-end-of-the-line (BEOL), this has driven the industry to use damascene tungsten chemical-mechanical polish (CMP) local interconnects and vias; SiO2-based intermetal dielectric CMP planarization;

37 high-aspect ratio aluminum wiring; high density plasma, ozone/TEOS, or advanced spin-on glass SiO2 intermetal dielectrics; high density plasma reactive ion etching; and excimer-laser DUV lithography. To achieve 0.25-micron CMOS performance objectives, the aluminum wire and tungsten via aspect ratios have increased by about a factor of two as compared to 0.50-micron CMOS. This aggressive reverse scaling of BEOL dimensions increases the defect and yield issues associated with the industry standard subtractive-aluminum etch process. We believe that, if substractive-aluminum wiring is used, the additional scaling required to meet the performance targets of sub-0.25-micron CMOS logic will result in significantly lower yields and increased manufacturing costs. Instead of attempting to drive subtractive-aluminum wiring beyond it’s reasonable limits, IBM has chosen to employ an additive-copper dual-damascene wiring process for its high performance sub-0.25- micron CMOS logic technologies. In this paper, we discuss defect density, resistance variability, and capacitance variability for 0.25-micron and 0.18-micron CMOS generation subtractive-aluminum and damascene copper wiring.

In this report, we examine the distribution of trace elements between the different solid components that largely make up the rocks. High concentrations of several trace elements throughout the deposit have raised concern about their introduction into the environment via weathering and the degree to which mining and the disposal of mined waste rock from this deposit might be accelerating that process. The question addressed here is how might the partitioning of trace elements between these solid host components influence the introduction of trace elements into ground water, surface water, and eventually biota, via weathering.

20050172089 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Microalloying Improves the Low-Cycle Fatigue Behavior of Powder-Extruded NiAl Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy There is considerable interest in developing new structural materials in which high use temperatures and strength, coupled with low density, are the minimum requirements. The goal for these new materials is to provide operation well beyond the working range of conventional superalloys. Of the many intermetallics under consideration, NiAl is one of the few systems that has emerged as a promising candidate for further development. This is because of a number of property advantages-- including low density, high melting temperature, high thermal conductivity, and excellent environmental resistance. However, binary NiAl lacks strength and creep resistance at elevated temperatures. Also, its poor high-temperature strength results in worse-than-predicted low-cycle fatigue (LCF) lives at low strain ranges at 727 C (1341 F) because of accelerated creep damage mechanisms that result in significant intergranular cracking. One approach for improving these properties involves microalloying NiAl with either Zr or N. As an integral part of this alloy-development program at the NASA Lewis Research Center, the low-cycle fatigue behavior of Zr- and N-doped nickel aluminides produced by extrusion of prealloyed powders was investigated and compared with similarly processed binary NiAl.

20050173393 Army Research Lab., Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD USA Numerical Simulation of Adiabatic Shear Bands in Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Due to Fragment Impact Fermen-Coker, Muege; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432790; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Current distributions of continuum mechanics codes used by the Army do not have the capability to model failure associated with plastic shear localizations in ballistic applications, such as plugging failure of targets due to ballistic impact by blunt-nosed projectiles. This paper discusses the development and validation of a computational capability to accurately model highly localized deformations in complex projectile-target interactions germane to survivability and lethality technologies for the Army’s Future Combat Systems. Onset and propagation of adiabatic shear bands are investigated both experimentally and computationally by studying the ballistic impact of 20-mm steel fragments against Ti-6Al-4V plates. Numerical simulations are carried out using a three-dimensional localization model being developed for CTH, an Eulerian wave propagation code. A failure criterion that uses homogenous material response and scaling laws to estimate the plastic strain at which stress collapse due to adiabatic shear should occur, for rate dependent, work-hardening, thermally softening materials, has been implemented into CTH, and is used as a nucleation criterion. Numerical results provided good agreement with experimental observations. 1.

Since the shape memory effect (SME) and pseudoelasticity exist in both NiTi and NiMnGa, constitutive models for SMAs can serve as a basis for MSMA behavioral modeling. The quasi-static model for NiMnGa was characterized by nine material parameters identified by conducting a series of uniaxial compression tests in a constant field environment. These model parameters include free strain, Young’s modulus, fundamental critical stresses, fundamental threshold fields, and stress-influence coefficients. These test data were used to assemble a critical stress profile that is useful for determining model parameters and for understanding the dependence of critical stresses on magnetic fields. Once implemented, the analytical model shows good correlation with test data for all modes of NiMnGa quasi-static behavior, capturing both the magnetic shape memory effect and pseudoelasticity. Furthermore, the model is also capable of predicting partial pseudoelasticity, minor hysteretic loops and stress-strain behaviors. To correct for the effects of magnetic saturation, a series of stress influence functions were developed from the critical stress profile. Although requiring further refinement, the model’s results are encouraging, indicating that the model is a useful analytical tool for predicting NiMnGa actuator behavior.

39 Thermal infrared laboratory spectra of experimentally shocked bytownite feldspars were combined with standard mineral libraries to deconvolve the spectra of experimentally shocked basaltic rocks to determine the accuracy with which pressures can be estimated in shocked basalts. High shock pressures cause disorder in the mineral lattice of plagioclase feldspars (whereas pyroxene and olivine spectra are more resilient). This affects thermal infrared absorption bands owing to an increase in diaplectic glass content, particularly at shock pressures above approx. 20-25 GPa. Our results indicate that average shock pressures derived from spectral deconvolutions are relatively good, with 10-15 GPa deviations at intermediate pressures and by approx. 5 GPa at other pressures. Samples. Emission spectra of experimentally shocked anorthosite (bytownite, An79) were described. Emission spectra of experimentally shocked basalt (Grand Falls, AZ) are shown. Grand Falls basalts are fine-grained with approx. 25% pyroxene, approx. 20% olivine, and approx. 40-50% feldspar.

The attendance list for Reynolds personnel is attached. there was an initial presentation which gave a brief history and the current status of pin wire coating at Reynolds. There was a presentation by Lori Primus on the requirements and issues for the coating. There was a presentation by Jim of LANL on the chemistry and to some extent process development done to date. There was a long session covering what steps should be taken in the short term and, to a lesser extent, the long term. The coating currently being used is a blend of two polymers, polyethersulfone and polyparabanic acid (PPA) and some TiO2 filler. This system was accepted and put into production when the pin wire coating was outsourced to another company in 1974. When that company no longer was interested, the wire coating was brought in-house to Reynolds. At that time polyparabanic acid was actually a commercial product available from Exxon under the trade name Tradlon. However, it appears that the material used at Reynolds was synthesized locally. Also, it appears that a single large batch was synthesized in that time period and used up to 1997 when the supply ran out. The reason for the inclusion of TiO2 is not known although it does act as a rheological thickener. However, a more controlled thickening can be obtained with materials such as fumed silica. This material would have less likelihood of causing point imperfections in the coatings. Also, the mixing technique being used for all stages of the process is a relatively low shear ball mill process and the author recommends a high shear process such as a three roll paint mill, at least for the final mixing. Since solvent is added to the powder at Reynolds, it may be that they need to have the paint mill there. NTIS Coating; Silicon Dioxide; Wire

By optimizing composition of a cleaning solution, it was found that buffered hydrofluoric acid (BHF) which consists of both the low HF concentration (about 0.1wt%) and the high NH4F concentration

40 (about 40wt%) and also contains both surfactant (40-80ppm) and hydrogen peroxide (approx. 5wt%) was the most effective for the cleaning. It was found that this cleaning solution can simultaneously remove the side wall protecting deposition films which adhere on the side wall inside contact hole, and the damaged layer which is formed on the Si substrate surface during RIE, and the native oxide film which grows on the Si surface at the contact hole bottom during the resist mask removal after RIE. Moreover, it was found that during the cleaning, the enlargement amount of 0.4 micron contact hole can be kept within 200 angstroms, and the microroughness generation at the Si surface of the contact hole bottom can be prevented. It was confirmed that this cleaning solution is very effective for the decrease of contact resistance and the increase of yield in the process of manufacturing semiconductor devices.

S.; 2004; 14 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-833243; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge The objective of this program is to design, synthesize, and evaluate high-efficiency, high-capacity sorbent materials capable of selectively sequestering actinides from complex aqueous mixtures. One of the central goals of this project is to understand the fundamental interfacial science required to develop novel mesoporous materials coated with organized monolayers of rationally designed ligands, custom-tailored for binding specific actinide cations. This capability addresses waste management by separation of actinides, a central concern of high-level waste (HLW) management at several DOE sites. PNNL has developed self-assembled monolayers on mesoporous supports (SAMMS) as a superior method of mercury and heavy metal sequestration. SAMMS has proven to be orders of magnitude faster and more effective than existing mercury-scavenging methods. This project builds on the SAMMS concept and extends the interfacial chemistry of monolayer-coated mesoporous materials to study the requirements of selective binding of actinides. The need exists in the management of DOE’s HLW to be able to selectively and completely remove the actinides so that HLW volume can be minimized and the nonradioactive components can be segregated and disposed of as low-level waste (LLW). In addition, the short-term risk assessment for tank closure requires a complete and accurate accounting of actinide speciation. These needs dictate the development of selective and efficient separation of actinides from complex waste streams so as to minimize HLW volume, reduce waste management costs, and enhance long-term stability of the HLW form.

Therefore, any repair material must be able to cure quickly and be easy to use. There are a large number of proprietary cementitious rapid repair materials for both asphalt and concrete pavements. Three types of cementitious materials were used to make acceptable expedient repairs to an asphalt roadway. Trafficking showed that these materials were not flexible enough to provide durable repairs to flexible pavements in hot weather. There are a number of proprietary asphalt based repair materials. These materials can generally be trafficked immediately after placement with some displacement, depending upon the loads. These products will gain more stability with time and with cooler temperatures. Repair materials using cut-back asphalts generally provide the best combination of workability and long-term storage under adverse conditions, particularly freezing temperatures. This study evaluated the asphalt repair materials for workability, strength using Marshall stability and triaxial testing, and durability in regards to cohesion and adhesion properties. The majority of repair materials use an open-graded mixture and the Marshall stability test is not appropriate for this type of gradation. The proprietary cold mixtures were all easier to apply and work with than the conventional cold mix. The products that advertised placement into wet holes all preformed well and provided equal performance in both wet and dry holes for the traffic and evaluation period used.

R.; Cummins, T. K.; Davis, J. L.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A433009; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Concrete masonry units (CMU), commonly referred to as concrete blocks, are the most common construction material utilized throughout the USA and the world for exterior walls of conventional structures. While masonry provides adequate strength for conventional design loads, it does not meet the minimum design standards mandated for blast protection of new and renovated government facilities. One of the most dangerous aspects of blast response is debris hazard, defined as high-velocity fragments originating from walls, windows, light fixtures, equipment, and furniture. Retrofits for conventional structures have evolved over the years from blast hardening through the addition of mass using concrete or steel, to the application of lighter, more resilient and ductile materials. Research at ERDC has focused on the use of elastomeric materials to mitigate debris hazards resulting from blast events. A series of sub-scale and full-scale experiments was conducted by ERDC to investigate the potential benefit of elastomeric retrofit systems when applied to hollow, unreinforced, CMU walls subjected to an explosive event. This study discusses both the 1/4-scale static and dynamic experiments and the full-scale dynamic CMU wall experiments conducted over the past few years. The CMU wall response to static loading was characterized by resistance functions, and normalized pressure and impulse diagrams were used to characterize the dynamic loading.

43 The Thermal Energy Storage (TES) experiments are designed to provide data to help researchers understand the long-duration microgravity behavior of thermal energy storage fluoride salts that undergo repeated melting and freezing. Such data, which have never been obtained before, have direct application to space-based solar dynamic power systems. These power systems will store solar energy in a thermal energy salt, such as lithium fluoride (LiF) or a eutectic of lithium fluoride/calcium difluoride (LiF-CaF2) (which melts at a lower temperature). The energy will be stored as the latent heat of fusion when the salt is melted by absorbing solar thermal energy. The stored energy will then be extracted during the shade portion of the orbit, enabling the solar dynamic power system to provide constant electrical power over the entire orbit. Analytical computer codes have been developed to predict the performance of a spacebased solar dynamic power system. However, the analytical predictions must be verified experimentally before the analytical results can be used for future space power design applications. Four TES flight experiments will be used to obtain the needed experimental data. This article focuses on the flight results from the first experiment, TES-1, in comparison to the predicted results from the Thermal Energy Storage Simulation (TESSIM) analytical computer code.

This experiment is part of series of studies focused on the smolder characteristics of porous, combustible materials in a microgravity environment. Smoldering is a nonflaming form of combustion that takes place in the interior of combustible materials. Common examples of smoldering are nonflaming embers, charcoal briquettes, and cigarettes. The objective of the study is to provide a better understanding of the controlling mechanisms of smoldering, both in microgravity and Earth gravity. As with other forms of combustion, gravity affects the availability of air and the transport of heat, and therefore, the rate of combustion. Results of the microgravity experiments will be compared with identical experiments carried out in Earth’s gravity. They also will be used to verify present theories of smoldering combustion and will provide new insights into the process of smoldering combustion, enhancing our fundamental understanding of this frequently encountered combustion process and guiding improvement in fire safety practices.

The idea of quasi-optical devices is to avoid transmission lines by using free space transmission, moreover, the amount of power to be handled by one device can be reduced by spreading tile power over an array of many identical low power devices. For the work presented here the extension of tile Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method known as Lumped Element (LE)-FDTD is used. LE-FDTD allows the incorporation of lumped element models inclt2ding passive, active and non-linear devices directly into the FDTD grid. Furthermore the implemented code allows plane wave excitation using the total-field/scattered-field transform and radiation pattern determination of the scattered field. These powerful features make the LE-FDTD method ideal for the analysis and design of quasi-optical structures. The paper begins with a passive validation of the method using a single dipole without a ground-plane, which is

44 fed by a double strip line. Input impedance, return loss and radiation patl,erns are shown. The following sections present the analysis of a dual frequency crossed dipole structure under plane wave excitation including lumped nonlinear devices. This crossed dipole structure was previously reported by D. Steup et al. The main idea of this approach is to achieve orthogonal polarized radiation at the two frequencies and the possibility to tune the antenna at the different frequencies almost independently.

Several rows of one-dimensional gratings are placed along the cylinder axis, each with a slightly differing period, thus allowing for quasi-continuous scanning of the main beam in the E-plane of the antenna. For typical applications, precise control over the scanning behavior and overall radiation characteristics (e.g. beamwidth) is crucial, and as such an analysis tool capable of predicting the performance of the antenna would prove highly beneficial. To this end, we have developed an accurate, analytical formulation for the total radiated fields of the structure based on an eigenmode expansion. Using u cylindrical modal spectrum representation in which a fictitious axial leaky-wave current is impressed on the cylinder surface allows us to model the surface periodicity without the need for a time-consuming full-wave analysis. Several salient features of the antenna’s radiative properties concerning the various geometrical parameters involved will be presented in what follows.

An initial tropical test site study was necessitated by the closure at the end of 1999 of all U.S. Army tropical testing and training facilities, which had been located in the Republic of Panama. In the process of searching for a replacement for the lost tropical testing facilities, the Army and its natural environment testing activity, Yuma Proving Ground (YPG), developed a better scientific understanding of how geographic analysis could enhance the Army’s ability to test and train in a natural environmental setting. A list of 14 criteria was developed that characterizes any site as to its ability to support all testing missions. This list was initially employed to screen Hawaii and Puerto Rico for areas that could support components of the tropical testing mission. A similar approach was taken in analyzing current Army

One of the limitations associated with such networks stems from the challenging indoor propagation environment, which leads to multipath signals with significant temporal and angular spreading. This multipath results in intersymbol interference (ISI) that can seriously reduce the achievable transmission data rate.

Their low profile is an important characteristic, especially for aircraft, missile and spacecraft applications, because they can be flush-mounted on the surface of airborne vehicles without affecting the vehicle’s aerodynamic profile. In this paper, the coupling of cavity-backed slot antennas is analyzed by using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method and the finite element method (FEM). Also, parametric studies are performed to examine the dependence of coupling on the frequency of operation and the separation between the apertures.

The transmission loss in a parallel plate waveguide is generally small m comparison with other feed lines like a microstrip line. A parallel plate waveguide is a kind of closed waveguides without a radiation loss so that it can take a much larger height to reduce a conductor loss than open waveguides. The radiating part is a slot array that can be easily etched on the upper plate. There are various ways to excite a plane TEM wave in parallel plates. Feed circuits using a born and/or a reflector are simple but need a relatively large area. We introduced a novel single-layer structure of a post-wall waveguide is shown. The post-wall waveguide is an array of metalized via-holes with a narrow spacing in a grounded dielectric substrate. Parallel plate slot arrays fed by the post-wall waveguide can be easily made at low cost by conventional PCB (printed circuit board) fabrication techniques such as via-holing, metal-plating and etching. We confirmed that the excitation of a plane TEM wave in the parallel plates of a 40GHz-model antenna by measuring uniform diving of coupling windows of the post-wall waveguide. In this paper, we realize at first uniform field distribution over almost of the aperture in a 76GHz-model antenna. The result indicates that this antenna itself has a potential to achieve high gain of about 30dB with high efficiency of about 55%. Author Models; Waveguides; Parallel Plates; Slots; Antenna Arrays

Since it is desired to simultaneously control both the achievable gain as well as to reduce grating lobe levels, an adaptive cost function is used in the process of the GA optimization. To determine the scattered field of the lens antenna an analytic technique is used based on the dyadic Green’s function of the multi-layered spherical shell. It will he shown that the radiation performance of the uniform Luneburg lens is significantly improved by designing a non-uniform lens with low number of shells. The antenna gain is increased and the grating lobes are suppressed considerably. Many useful engineering design guidelines have been established for the optimum design of the lens.

Often, these radiating structures are electrically large, necessitating efficient and accurate computational techniques. A common method is the method of moments (MoM) using integral equation formulations. These MoM techniques have limited material handling capabilities since they are not efficient when inhomogeneous materials are present. The finite element method (FEM) is characterized by flexible material handling capabilities and is often preferred for problems involving complex structures and inhomogeneous materials. When using the FEM for open region radiation problems, the mesh must be truncated mesh with an appropriate absorbing boundary condition. Further, the FEM formulation must be accurate and free of spurious solutions. A perfectly matched layer (PML) is a mesh truncation which presents several computational advantages. For example, PML is available in cylindrical coordinates, resulting in a computationally efficient domain for almost any geometry. Further, PML can be used without altering the sparsity of the FEM matrix. Finally, when using PML, reflection errors can be systematically controlled. For a more accurate mesh truncation, one needs only to increase the thickness of the PML region. A mixed edge-node formulation allows for an accurate representation of the fields in the FEM domain. This formulation uses edge-based vector basis functions for the field component transverse to phi and nodal-based scalar basis functions for the phi component. This mixed representation automatically satisfies the boundary conditions at material discontinuities and sharp conductor edges and hence is free of spurious modes.

Applications have been in ground-based and air-borne direction finding and in electronic support measures (ESM) systems. In recent years they increasingly gain interest in the field of communications. The increasing number of radio services such as communication services, satellite navigation services and analog and digital broadcasting services causes a need for a higher number of antennas over wider

51 frequency ranges. Especially for mobile systems in cars, planes or even ships this increasing number of antennas is not desired. Therefore spiral antennas are promising candidates for use in mobile systems with broadband coverage of multiple services. The remaining drawback for the integration of spiral antennas in mobile communication systems is the directive radiation pattern with the main beam orthogonal to the spiral plane. In mobile communication systems the antenna must have an omnidirectional coverage for terrestrial services. Measures to transform the radiation pattern of the spiral with a ground-plane or similar means into an omnidirectional pattern usually result in a degradation in bandwidth, because the frequency- independent characteristics of the structure are removed.

The previous paper [1] reported that changing the phase shift and the number of turns of wire in the central portion enables vertical pattern fan beams to be formed which give desired gains. The present paper reports the results of consideration on the basic characteristics of two types of directivity, one which forms an enclosing shape shown in Fig.1(a)and the other which forms

Traditionally monopole and helix antennas have been used in the handsets [1] and lately planar antennas like patches or PIFAs have gained increasing interest [2]. The basic problem in the development of handset antennas is to obtain fairly large impedance bandwidth (8 - 15 %) combined with small size and possibly also with directivity. In some proposals this has been solved trivially at the expense of radiation efficiency by adding resistive loading to the antenna. The decrease of efficiency mainly due to conduction losses is also a general problem in the miniaturization of RF resonators used in filters and small antennas. Furthermore, it is known that waveguide resonators like dielectric resonators have typically relatively low conduction losses. Thus the half-volume dielectric resonator antenna (DRA) presented in [3] is an interesting candidate for a small antenna of mobile handsets. In this paper the properties of half-volume DRAs are studied as a function of permittivity (E(sub r)’ = 2...70). In addition to the normal characterization of impedance and radiation properties special emphasis is put also on the behavior of radiation efficiency of the antenna.

These requirements for special DR configurations make the CP operation of DR antennas more difficult. This is because it is relatively uneasy to form a DR with special configurations and almost impossible to make slight geometrical modifications of the constructed DR, due to its hardness in nature, to compensate the manufacturing tolerances or the fabrication errors. In this paper we demonstrate that, two near-degenerate resonant modes is mainly controlled by adjusting the two arm-lengths of the coupling cross-aperture. To verify the proposed CP design method, the case of design a circular disk DR antenna is described and details of the experimental results of the resulting CP radiation are presented.

Recent developments in the millimeter-wave (MMW) technology have made MMW radars a viable approach for these applications. Hence, an accurate characterization of the MMW polarimetric radar backscattering of clutter is an essential component in designing the optimal sensor and developing detection algorithms, For a number of proposed applications, such as vehicle collision avoidance, the MMW radar will be operated at near grazing incidence. To date, few data sets, if any, that characterize MMW radar response of clutter at near grazing incidence are available in the open literature. In this paper, we will examine only the MMW polarimetric response of tree trunks at near grazing incidence. A tree trunk possesses a strong MMW backscatter response, in part, due to its substantial vertical extent above ground. Although, several scattering mechanisms contribute to the the backscatter resp.onse of a tree trunk above ground, only the direct backscatter component of the trunk is considered. In the

53 following sections, a Geometric-Optics model for predicting the MMW backscatter response of tree trunks and rough dielectric cylinders is proposed first, then compared to the measurements performed at 95 GHz. Author Mathematical Models; Backscattering; Millimeter Waves; Frequencies

This paper presents visualization examples for frequency domain codes. Visualization quantities for antenna and scattering examples include geometry, currents, near fields, radiation images, and far field patterns that can be animated in time and space. As computational capabilities grow, we are generating larger and larger output data sets that require our evaluation, review and understanding. It is no longer sufficient to just view the final RCS or antenna patterns for comparison to measured data. EM modeling can provide rich insights into the physical processes by which these devices operate. Our understanding can be greatly enhanced if we would visualize the information available to us from our computational models. This type of data in principle could be measured, but this is seldom done. EM prediction codes, however, inherently have this information contained within the solution. Visualization tools can take advantage of this information to provide greater user insights. Visualization of the output of computational EM models is increasingly required to: Validate the solution and input geometry; Increase our understanding of the EM behavior of the device or article under test (computation); and Provide physical insights required for design iterations.

Several feeding techniques have been proposed in the literature. One approach is the aperture coupling technique, which, however, may introduce a relatively high-backlobe radiation. Another approach is that the DRA is fed directly on top of a microstrip feedline. But the existence of an air-gap between the DRA and dielectric substrate introduces difficulty in implementation. Also as shown here, the impedance matching may be difficult with this method for low-permittivity DRAs. Author Resonators; Dielectrics; Antennas; Backlobes; Feed Systems

Typically, a dual-band antenna is required to operate at both 800 MHz AMPS and 1900 MHz PCS in the U.S., or 900 MHz GSM and 1800 MHz GSM bands in Europe. A tri-band antenna is required to operate at GSM900, GSM1800 (DCS) and GSM1900 (PCS) bands. In this paper, a multi-band antenna having a single feed is presented. The multi-band antenna is a fixed type that contains a uniform helix wire for the low band and a short whip for the high band. The resonance frequencies of the antenna can easily be adjusted by changing the length of the coil and the whip such that they coincide with the cellular bands in frequency and bandwidth. The multi-band fixed antenna has also been analyzed using a Finite-Difference Time-Domain (FDTD) method [1].

Different attempts have been made to increase the bandwidth of microstrip antennas, including the use of thicker substrates, of parasitic elements and of impedance-matching networks. Although the bandwidth may be increased for the reception of one polarisation, the results achieved in prior art are not sufficient for DTH (Direct-To-Home) satellite reception. A dual polarised antenna is required from 10.70GHz to 12.75 GHz (relative bandwidth 17.5%). Extensive research in our department led to a special kind of broadband proximity-coupled and dual polarised antenna. This two-layers configuration is characterized by a simple structure. Based on this antenna, two novel microstrip antennas were developed which additionally guarantee beam forming and increase gain. These improved antennas are suitable in antenna arrays to reduce the number of elements and to simplify the feeding network. Another more often used DTH reception unit is a combination of a parabolic reflector, a feedhorn and a LNB (Low Noise Block Converter). As illustrated in, it is preferable to avoid the transition loss from hollow waveguide, i.e. the feedhorn, to planar waveguide technology, i.e. the LNB, by replacing the feedhorn with a single microstrip antenna. An improvement of beam forming hence is very important for the illumination of the reflector. Therefore, the two novel antenna elements are the main issue of this contribution.

Due to the large quantities of spacecraft forming the LEO constellation, the design of such an array requires a low cost approach. The array operates from 12.95 to 14.50 GHz and is designed to have an active match of better than 25 dB across the band. The array is fed by a compact reactive waveguide beamforming network, which dictates the need for well-matched radiating elements. To provide beam zooming capability, the element excitations are controlled to generate different orbit location dependent beams. Circular polarization is achieved by means of a meander-linpolarizer. Design and test of this antenna are discussed in the following sections. Author Waveguides; Circular Polarization; Arrays; Low Earth Orbits; Satellite Communication

Recently, a dual-band (GSM and DCS) antenna design using three elements with one feed point was proposed. For the elements not clad by plastic, the radiation patterns were shown to be basically omnidirectional (though maximum radiation directions were not in the horizontal plane), and the antenna was tunable by adjusting the length of the wire elements. In this paper, we report FDTD modeling results for a practical situation wherein the wire elements are formed in a plastic rod. Our modeling study indicates a large shift of the antenna’s radiation pattern in the elevation plane. This shift likely negates the usefulness of the design.

The radar system was mounted in the cargo bay with no need to fold, or in any other way reduce the size of the antennas for launch. Weight and size were not limited for the L-Band, C-Band, and X-Band radar systems of the SIR-C radar imaging mission; the set of antennas weighed 10,500 kg, the L-Band antenna having the major share of the weight. This paper treats designing an L-Band antenna functionally similar to that used for SIR-C, but at a fraction of the cost and at a weight in the order of 250 kg. Further, the antenna must be folded to fit into the small payload shroud of low cost booster rocket systems. Over 31 square meters of antenna area is required. This low weight, foldable, electronic scanning antenna is for the proposed LightSAR radar system which is to be placed in Earth orbit on a small, dedicated space craft at the lowest possible cost for an efficient L-Band radar imaging system. This LightSAR spacecraft radar is to be continuously available for at least five operational years, and have the ability to map or repeat-map any area on earth within a few days of any request. A microstrip patch array, with microstrip transmission lines heavily employed in the aperture and in the corporate feed network, was chosen as the low cost approach for this active dual-polarization, 80 MHz (6.4%) bandwidth antenna design.

To avoid the grating-lobes through a wide range of scanning angle, the element spacing in the array should be less than about lambda/2. In order to arrange all of the phase shifters in the phased array antenna on a single plane, each phase shifter should be as compact as possible. The digital phase shifter, composed of cascaded several bit elements (180 deg, 90 deg, 45 deg, 22.5 deg, ...), is widely used for phased array application. For the elements smaller than 90 deg bit, the loaded-line phase shifters are generally used because of low insertion loss and simplicity. However, using the loaded-line phase shifter, 180 deg phase shift cannot be obtained in principle. Thus, for the element of 180 deg bit, the switched-line phase shifter is widely used, though it has disadvantage of its large size and large phase shift deviation within a bandwidth. In this paper, we propose 180 deg/alpha deg Combined Phase Shifter, which consists of 180 deg switched-line section and arbitrary angle (alpha deg) loaded-line section. This proposed phase shifter operates as a 2-bit phase shifter, and has both physical and electrical advantages, i.e., its compact size and small phase shift deviation. This paper presents basic configuration of the proposed phase shifter, and also presents an example of characteristics in the case of alpha deg = 45 deg calculated by Method of Moment.

A generalized technique to study microstrip lines should be able to account for anisotropy in the substrate. Anisotropy may occur naturally in the substrate or may be artificially induced to improve system performance In this paper, we use the finite difference formulation to model the microstrip line. The wave equation involving the transverse field components is discretized resulting in a sparse eigenvalue problem A spatial interpolation scheme is used to evaluate the contribution from the off-diagonal terms in the permittivity and permeability tensors. It is shown that the two-term interpolation scheme performs just as well as the more common four-term scheme. Direct spectral decomposition of the matrix is expensive for complicated waveguiding structures with large matrices. However, by exploiting the sparsity of the matrices, it is possible to solve for the eigenpairs much more efficiently. This is accomplished using the bi-Lanczos algorithm.

In order to account for all reflections and diffractions from the airframe, as well as those from a stratified ground, a full-wave analysis should be used. Since the exact Green’s function for a stratified ground is available, the radiation problem of a helicopter above the ground reduces to a problem of finding the total equivalent source in the presence of the ground. Furthermore, if the observation points are

57 confined only in the upper hemisphere, then the asymptotic solution for the radiated field due to the source can be obtained by using the Reflection Coefficient Method (RCM) or Norton’s approximation. In this paper, HF antennas, such as a 14-ft towel-bar and a 24-ft inverted-L on the AH-64 (Apache) full-scale helicopter, are analyzed in the presence of a stratified ground. In particular, the ground influence on the radiation pattern is investigated using the Finite Element Method (FEM) in conjunction with Norton’s approximation. Therefore, the radiated field contains not only the space wave but also the surface wave which is important for a short observation distance. The lossy ground is defined by its relative permittivity and electric conductivity. Derived from text High Frequencies; Antenna Design; Airframes; Stratification; AH-64 Helicopter

Most of related designs only using an inset-microstripline feed for achieving linear polarization operation have been reported. Here, we will first demonstrate novel design of inset-microstripline-fed circularly-polarized microstrip antenna from corner-truncated patch with an inserted slit. A 50 Ohm matching microstripline is introduced and directly inset to the modified square microstrip antenna for circular polarization (CP) operation. And, by using much more slits inserted at the comer-truncated patch boundary, these inserted slits can result in meandering of the excited fundamental-mode patch surface current path, which effectively lowers the resonant frequency of the modified square patch, similar to the design using four inserted slits of different lengths at the boundary of a square patch. Results have been obtained that a compact CP operation for the modified design can be achieved by using an inset microstripline feed. Details of design of inset-microstripline-fed microstrip antennas are discussed in the Symposium. Author Microstrip Antennas; Planar Structures; Circular Polarization

It is found that, for both regular-size and compact CP operations, the related designs of microstrip antennas are largely on square and circular patches. Relatively very few designs for achieving CP operation using triangular microstrip antennas are available in the open literature. This motivates the present study of novel designs of both regular-size and compact CP operations of triangular microstrip antennas. For the present, the typical designs of circularly polarized triangular microstrip antennas that have been reported are the designs using a nearly equilateral-triangular patch or an equilateral- triangular patch with a slit inserted at the patch edge. In this article, we first demonstrate another promising regular-size CP design of triangular microstrip antennas with an embedded narrow horizontal slot. And, it is then shown that, by using a cross slot of unequal slot lengths in place of the embedded horizontal slot, the circularly polarized radiation of the slotted triangular microstrip antenna can occur at a lower operating frequency. Details of the proposed CP designs of slotted triangular microstrip antennas are described, and experimental results of the CP performance are presented and discussed.

This paper presents the radiation properties of a new type of CP-DRA element together with the design technique of DRA array composed of a pair of CP-DRAs. In order to evaluate the performance, some DRA elements and its arrays were fabricated and tested at X-band. The 3-dB axial-ratio bandwidth obtained from this new type of DRA array was about 20% at X-band, and it had an extremely broadband performance compared to that of an usual array antenna. Therefore, the DRA array proposed here is considered to be an effective model as a broadband circularly polarized array. Author Antenna Arrays; Resonators; Circular Polarization

This paper presents an array of four coupled oscillators using linearly polarized elements to generate circular polarization (CP). An array to generate CP with linearly polarized elements has been extensively described. The array consists in four patch elements with 0 deg, 90 deg, 180 deg, 270 deg arrangement both for angular orientation and feed phase. This array has shown good CP quality for a wide axial ratio bandwidth. The coupling circuit is designed so that a 0 deg, 90 deg, 180 deg, 270 deg arrangement for the oscillator phases is obtained. Since stable steady-state operation can not be achieved for this phase arrangement with classical mutual coupling, the oscillators are phase-locked in a loop by unidirectional coupling provided by amplifiers.

In these designs, a modification element for achieving a compact circular polarization (CP) operation is introduced by using a cross-slot cut in the circular microstrip patch center or two pairs of narrow slots inset at the boundary of the square microstrip patch. It can be noted that these CP designs are used by a cross slot or two pairs narrow slot of owing unequal length to split the antenna’s fundamental mode into two near-degenerate resonant modes with equal amplitude and 90 deg. phase difference. In practical application, this makes it possible to be less freedom degree of fabrication. It is inconvenient to carry out post-manufacturing free-tuning in such designs to compensate for the possible fabrication errors and substrate material tolerances. Here, we demonstrate two configuration to perform the small CP operation with much relaxed manufacturing tolerances. One is a peripheral-cuts circular microstrip antenna with a equal arm-length cross slot, and the other is a comer-truncated square microstrip antenna with four equal arm-length bent slots. With the peripheral cuts or truncated corners in the microstrip patch, it can be splitted antenna’s fundamental mode into two near degenerate orthogonal modes with quadrature phases. Also with a equal arm-length cross slot or four equal ann-length bent slots embedded in the microstrip patch, the proposed microstfip antenna is expected to lengthen their two near degenerate orthogonal modes as compared to the peripheral-cuts circular microstrip antenna or corner-truncated square microstrip antenna. Typical results of the proposed design for the small CP antennas will be discussed in the Symposium. Author Microstrip Antennas; Polarized Radiation; Design Analysis; Void Ratio

59 microstrip structures are widely utilized in the conformal antenna system constructed in aircraft and missiles. The analysis in does not allow the presence of the superstrate. The structures considered in are restricted to the case where conducting strips are printed on the surface of the single-layered substrate. Broadside-coupled microstrip structures cannot be tackled in. Also, the outer shielding conductors are not considered in beth and. In this research, we will extend the mode-matching technique developed in to handle the structure that consists of a multilayered background medium, optional inner and/or outer shielding conductors, and indents or cavities on the shielding conductors. The indents are usually due to undesired surface imperfection in the fabrication process, whereas the cavities can be used to provide additional degrees of freedom in designing a transmission-lin.e system.

Since it operates in a transmission-type arrangement, a long return cable is required. Several methods were then developed to eliminate the return cable by using the radar cross section (RCS) measurement method. The advantages of this method are described. A measurement method based on RCS measurement concept and antenna scattering matrix is developed. It can not only measure the antenna gain, but also derive the structural scattering characteristics and antenna input impedance from the measurement. However, it requires a complicated polarimetric calibration procedure for the measurement system. In this paper, a novel method is proposed to combine the concepts of three-antenna method and RCS measurement method to measure the antenna gain and its structural scattering characteristics without involving the reference antenna or polarimetric calibration. In this method, the measurement arrangement including the transmitting and receiving antennas is considered as a two-port network with reference planes at the input port for each antenna as shown. By connecting three different known terminators at the receiving antenna port and measure the reflection coefficients at the transmitting antenna port, the scattering parameters of this two-port network can be derived. They are shown to be related to the product of two antennas’ gain. Therefore one can follow the three-antenna method to find the gain of each antenna. In addition, the structural scattering characteristics of each antenna can be solved. Derived from text Antenna Gain; Reflectance; S Matrix Theory; Antenna Design

Chirp modulation has also been considered for multi-user applications. New forms of multi-user chirp modulation (M-CM) signals that are characterized by the same power as well as the same bandwidth have been introduced recently by the authors. In this paper, we investigate the combination of frequency-hopping (FH) spread-spectrum techniques with M-CM to produce a multiple-access technique that is characterized by good performance in dispersive and fading propagation media. The considered frequency-hopped chirp modulation (FH-CM) is investigated in details and its performance is shown to highly outperform that of M-CM.

60 three-parameter (3-P) model for elliptical (or circular) aperture antennas. This model is very useful for the design of aperture type antennas such as reflector antennas, lenses, and large planar arrays. In application, the challenge is how to find those parameters to give the optimal aperture distribution so as to achieve the desired radiation characteristics of aperture antennas. For example, one may desire high directivity, low sidelobe level (SLL), high beam efficiency, and low spillover for a shaped reflector antenna. In order to make the best use of the 3-P model for optimal design of aperture distribution, the Emperor-Selective based genetic algorithm (EMS-GA) is used to find the three parameters. Genetic Algorithms (GAs) are scholastic optimization technique based on the concept of biological genetics and natural selection and they have a very wide application in optimization of engineering problems. However, the standard GAs, which based on randomized-mating and binary-crossover, suffer from one major drawback and they are usually unable to move the search to areas outside the space of the initial population. In our GA, the more effective Emperor-Selective (EMS) mating scheme and floating number interpolating and extrapolating linear crossover are used for fast solutions. Simulations show that only a few generations may be used to achieve satisfactory results. Author Apertures; Distribution Functions; Genetic Algorithms; Design Analysis

Tile radar cross sections associated with the larger scale surface are reduced by a factor equal to the square of tile characteristic function of the smaller scale surface (that rides upon the larger scale surface). The Bragg scatter contributions front the small scale surface are modulated by the slopo_ of the large scale surface. The back scatter cross sections are obtained by regarding the rough surface as an ensemble of patches of random rough surfaces with arbitrary orientations. It. is shown that the full wave solutions are stationary over a wide range of patch sizes. The patches are characterized by tile spectral wavenumber that separates the large scale surface from the small scale surface. The mean square heights and slopc_ of the large (and small) scale surfaces depend on the choice of patch sizes. Author Backscattering; Mean Square Values; Radar Cross Sections

This system mostly uses rod antennas at the base stations because of their easy installation and low cost; they are usually placed on top of public telephone boxes and utility poles, at the top of towers installed on telephone offices, and on the ceiling of underground shopping area or in buildings, and so on. Obviously antenna heights and installation conditions differ widely. Street microcells are formed in urban areas because most antennas arc surrounded by buildings. Some antennas may be sited on towers and not all sites have the same surroundings, so the base station antennas must offer a wide variety of radiation patterns. Based on a consideration of the propagation characteristics and the installation condition, we have developed several base station antennas. This paper introduces the design concepts and experimental results of these microcell base station antennas for PHS. The fabricated rod antennas are tested in a real propagation environment in an urban area. The trials confirm the validity of our design method and the usefulness of the antennas.

But it is an accepted fact that electrically smaller antennas have narrower bandwidths and poorer efficiencies than their larger counterparts. This would incur significant power losses and reduce the general efficiency of the receiver as well as increasing equipment costs. Today more efficient matching techniques are available. For example, for a center fed patch antenna, post pins which were are usually used around the feed pin for matching purpose. This study was proceeded by experimentally way mainly till now. In design of small antennas, optimization of parameters by using numerical simulation is necessary. In early works, numerical simulation by using wire-mesh method and diakoptic theory has been used. Because it is very difficult to deal with the patch structure and wire element simultaneously, numerical analysis of matching technique by using same analysis method haven’t been reported yet. In this paper, we calculated the center fed patch antenna which has two post pins by using FDTD method. To improve the computation efficiency, the FDTD analysis by using non-uniform mesh is used during the simulation. By changing the structure of matching element, examination of matching technique of low profile antenna is carried out in this paper.

The enhanced equations, derived by considering the singular nature of electromagnetic fields at sharp metal edges, properly model the patch with less number of FDTD cells. The same inclined patch antenna is modelled using two existing techniques as well, namely staircase and split-cell models, for comparison with enhanced equations. The resonance frequencies and the frequency response of the patch are computed using these three techniques, and are compared with a very accurate reference, which is obtained by analyzing a similar patch but kept parallel to a much finer grid. It is found that the enhanced equations give extremely accurate results consistently, without any

62 noticeable computing overhead. For example, the accuracy of the first resonance frequency using the enhanced equations is 1.1%, and that using the staircase and split-cell models is 7.1% and 3.5%, respectively. The enhanced equations are very stable, and are time-stepped at the maximum Courant limit in all simulations without any problems.

As is well known, conventional MoM techniques lead to fully populated interaction matrices. This aspect limits the electrical size of the problem that can be solved on a given computer with limited memory. Recently introduced fast methods, such as the adaptive integral method (AIM) and fast multipole method (FMM), provide for reduced memory and CPU requirements. In this paper we consider the implementation of FMM to MoM matrices associated with 2nd order curvilinear elements. Particular emphasis is given on the convergence properties and accuracy of FMM acceleration schemes. It is demonstrated that preconditioning is often essential when dealing with FMM matrices generated from curvilinear element implementations. Also, choices of lower order multipole expansions can lead to much faster speeds but lower accuracy. Author Radar Cross Sections; Multipoles; Method of Moments

The system was designed to have minimum intrusion inside the aircraft and no protrusion outside the aircraft so that the radome is flush to the fuselage. The main drivers of this antenna design include low cost, minimum height, and high efficiencies for both K-band (20.2 -21.2 GHz) and Q-band (43.5 - 45.5 GHz). The approach Raytheon chose was a 20 inch wide 9.5 inch high elliptical offset dual-shaped Gregorian reflector with a compact concentric feed as shown. The main challenge of such an elliptical aperture design is optimizing the antenna efficiency. Shaping approaches reported by P-S. Kildal offer an excellent solution to this problem. These approaches were used to synthesize the main reflector and subreflector and to analyze the antenna performance. After a thorough tradeoff study, a reflector configuration meeting the design driving factors as shown was chosen. This figure includes front and side views with ray tracing lines to indicate the energy spread. Despite blockage by the feed and the subreflector, this configuration offers the maximum effective antenna aperture under the height constrain. In synthesizing the reflector surfaces, a -15 dB taper was chosen at the subreflector edge to minimize the spillover loss. To maximize the illumination efficiency, a -3 dB edge taper on the antenna aperture was chosen. Since circular polarization is required for both K- and Q-bands, a compact concentric feed with symmetric feed patterns was selected. The Q-band feed in the center has a dielectric launching rod, and the feed horn is a multi-mode horn with a 1.05 inch diameter. A septum polarizer is used to generate circular polarization for Q-band and dielectric vanes are used in the K-band coaxial waveguide. Typical measured feed patterns are shown.

The normal approach involves the inherent frequency selection characteristics of the periodic structure of the corrugated horn. Interesting design problems occur in the coupling junction at which frequency selection/separation takes place, to ensure complete lossless decoupling between

63 operational frequency bands. More importantly though, maintaining stringent low sidelobe envelope and polarization discrimination performance consistent with modern satellite communication requirements, have a dramatic effect on the nature of the design of the horn and the frequency selective coupling junctions. A number of computational design routines have been developed for these junction designs, and refined to offer compliant antenna performance. Typical examples of such designs are: 2/8 GHz, 4/7/12 GHz, 2/4 GHz, 11/14/18 GHz, 4/12 GHz, 12/20 GHz, all involving adjustable and/or switchable CP/LP polarization configurations in one form or another.

The reason for the recurring interest stems from the fact that multiple frequency-scaled coaxial waveguides can be conveiently nested in the inner conductor of an original coaxial waveguide. With this scheme, several antennas (cups) can be concentrically located in the same area as the largest coaxial waveguide to accommodate a wide frequency band. However, due to frequency limitations, practical nesting of coaxial waveguide cups has generally been limited to multifrequency applications. For wideband operation, the ratio of the outer-to-inner coaxial waveguide conductor radii must be relatively small, resulting in high reflection coefficients and significant cross-polarized radiation (cx-pol). Also, mutual coupling between the dicent coaxial waveguide cups adversely affects performance. Several methods using irises and dielectrics have been employed to handle these limitations, but have seen limited success. A simple alternative method to reduce these difficulties involves extending the center conductor of the coaxial waveguide past the aperture. This extension of the center conductor reduces the reflection coefficient of the coaxial waveguides The mode over a large bandwidth, as well as the mutual coupling between the nested coaxial waveguide cups.

The nine systems are divided into

64 the following types of transmission: in-band on-channel (IBOC), in-band adjacent-channel (IBAC), and new bands. The laboratory testing was conducted by the Consumer Electronics Group of the Electronic Industries Association. Subjective assessments of the audio recordings for each of the nine systems was conducted by the Communications Research Center in Ottawa, Canada, under contract to the Electronic Industries Association. The Communications Research Center has the only CCIR-qualified (Consultative Committee for International Radio) audio testing facility in North America. The main goals of the U.S. testing process are to (1) provide technical data to the Federal Communication Commission (FCC) so that it can establish a standard for digital audio receivers and transmitters and (2) provide the receiver and transmitter industries with the proper standards upon which to build their equipment. In addition, the data will be forwarded to the International Telecommunications Union to help in the establishment of international standards for digital audio receivers and transmitters, thus allowing U.S. manufacturers to compete in the world market.

However, the gravity field of the rim of the Moon was not clearly investigated like the nearside. Over the rim of the Moon, the gravity force from the Moon acts mainly in the direction perpendicular to line of sight (LOS). So we can t estimate the gravity field precisely only by Doppler measurements which is sensitive to the direction of LOS. In order to solve this problem, we apply very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) technique in VRAD (the differential VLBI radio sources) mission of Japanese lunar explorer SELENE (SELenological and ENgineering Explorer) in addition to a conventional 2-way and newly applied 4-way Doppler measurements. By measuring the difference of arriving time of the same wave front of a radio signal from the spacecraft (s/c) at two or more separated antennas, VLBI can precisely determine the position and the velocity of the s/c in the direction perpendicular to LOS.

In this technique, the incident signal from a spacecraft-borne transmitter is directed to the specular point on a planet, and the signal scattered by the surface is received on the Earth. At microwave frequencies typical planetary surfaces scatter electromagnetic waves quasi-specularly, which means that the mirror-like reflection component dominates the scattered signal. In this case, the polarization state of the received echo depends only on the electromagnetic properties (dielectric permittivity and magnetic permeability) of the surface material (according to Fresnel s equations), thus providing unambiguous constraints on these parameters.

This research aimed through field studies to see how the BA firefighters and the BA leader communicate with each other. It also aimed to investigate if some answers to what defines ‘good communication’ during BA rescue operations could be found. Through a qualitative analysis of the communication patterns of two pairs of BA firefighters the impact on the communication made by common ground establishment, team knowledge and similar phenomena, such as experience of working together, has been investigated. The results illustrate communicative problems which can occur during a rescue operation and shed light on the gravity of an agreement on what information should be mediated by the BA firefighters.

Also, a stimulated recall interview was conducted with 2 of the firemen that had participated in one of the exercises. The different data collection methods all indicated that well- developed mental models or a high degree of pre-task knowledge affected performance in a positive way. Moreover, a multiple regression analysis showed that both pre-task knowledge and team processes significantly can predict performance. The results of the analysis of team situation awareness in relation to performance were fairly ambiguous.

As all services have specific demands on packet delays and packet losses in order to be fully functional, there is a need for a quality-of-service (QoS) mechanism in the network. In this report the authors examine the possibility of providing a QoS mechanism in ad hoc networks by using priority queues. The study includes two different queuing schemes, namely fixed priority queuing and weighted fair queuing. The performance of the two queuing schemes is evaluated and compared with respect to their ability to provide differentiation in network delay, i.e. provide high-priority traffic with lower delays than

66 low-priority traffic. The study is mainly done by simulations, but for fixed priority queuing the authors also derive an analytical approximation of the network delay. NTIS Communication Networks; Information Systems; Military Technology

GPR uses electromagnetic waves, in the radio frequency range, to investigate shallow subsurfaces. The wave is produced by a transmit antenna, scattering on layers of varying impedance, then recorded by a receive antenna. Since metal objects can greatly influence the quality of the GPR data, Oklahoma State University’s GPR (the Pulse EKKO 100) is designed with a minimal amount of metal. The Pulse EKKO 100 comes with a PVC support system for the antennae instead of a metal support system. Another way to reduce noise in the data is to use fiber optic cable, instead of copper cable. The cable is required to send the transmit signal, send the receive signal, and to retrieve the data. Fiber optic cable greatly reduces noise, but is expensive and fragile. Some of the basic components of a Pulse EKKO 100 are shown. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

20050171019 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Implications of ACTS Technology on the Requirements of Rain Attenuation Modeling for Communication System Specification and Analysis at the Ka-Band and Beyond Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 1 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: Other Sources; Abstract Only With the advent of the use of the Ka-band for space communications, coupled with the introduction of digital modulation techniques as well as multiple-beam methodology for satellites, the NASA Lewis Research Center has deemed it necessary to reassess the plethora of rain attenuation prediction models in use (computer models that predict the attenuation of signals by rain). The Advanced Communication Technology Satellite (ACTS) project, undertaken by NASA in 1983, offered such challenges to rain attenuation prediction modeling. An examination of the work done in this area shows that, up to 1983, no such single modeling formalism existed that could fulfill the requirements of the ACTS specifications. Not even the work done by the NASA Propagation Experimenters Group had envisioned such requirements, so no dynamic Ka-band data existed from which one could draw conclusions. In response to this need, Lewis developed the ACTS Rain Attenuation Prediction Model. A detailed discussion of the derivation of the model’s basic relations can be found in reference 1. The model as well as its software implementation won the Space Act Award for 1992. In addition to the review of the model, a recommendation is given in reference 2 for a new evaluation of the performance of satellite communication systems, in particular, for those to be operating within the Ka-band and above. These systems will necessarily employ some type of dynamic rain-fade mitigation procedure. Author ACTS; Rain; Attenuation; Mathematical Models; Extremely High Frequencies; Satellite Communication

20050172130 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Highly Efficient Amplifier for Ka-Band Communications Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: Other Sources; Abstract Only An amplifier developed under a Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract will have applications for both satellite and terrestrial communications. This power amplifier uses an innovative series bias arrangement of active devices to achieve over 40-percent efficiency at Ka-band frequencies with an output power of 0.66 W. The amplifier is fabricated on a 2.0- by 3.8-square millimeter chip through the use of Monolithic Microwave Integrated Circuit (MMIC) technology, and it uses state-of-the-art, Pseudomorphic High-Electron-Mobility Transistor (PHEMT) devices. Although the performance of the MMIC chip depends on these high-performance devices, the real innovations here are a unique series bias scheme, which results in a high-voltage chip supply, and careful design of the on-chip planar output stage combiner. This design concept has ramifications beyond the chip itself because it opens up the possibility of operation directly from a satellite power bus (usually 28 V) without a dc-dc converter. This will dramatically increase the overall system efficiency. Conventional microwave power

67 amplifier designs utilize many devices all connected in parallel from the bias supply. This results in a low-bias voltage, typically 5 V, and a high bias current. With this configuration, substantial I(sup 2) R losses (current squared times resistance) may arise in the system bias-distribution network. By placing the devices in a series bias configuration, the total current is reduced, leading to reduced distribution losses. Careful design of the on-chip planar output stage power combiner is also important in minimizing losses. Using these concepts, a two-stage amplifier was designed for operation at 33 GHz and fabricated in a standard MMIC foundry process with 0.20-m PHEMT devices. Using a 20-V bias supply, the amplifier achieved efficiencies of over 40 percent with an output power of 0.66 W and a 16-dB gain over a 2-GHz bandwidth centered at 33 GHz. With a 28-V bias, a power level of 1.1 W was achieved with a 12-dB gain and a 36-percent efficiency. This represents the best reported combination of power and efficiency at this frequency. In addition to delivering excellent power and gain, this Ka-band MMIC power amplifier has an efficiency that is 10 percent greater than existing designs. The unique design offers an excellent match for spacecraft applications since the amplifier supply voltage is closely matched to the typical value of spacecraft bus voltage. These amplifiers may be used alone in applications of 1 W or less, or several may be combined or used in an array to produce moderate power, Ka-band transmitters with minimal power combining and less thermal stress owing to the combination of excellent efficiency and power output. The higher voltage operation of this design may also save mass and power because the dc-dc power converter is replaced with a simpler voltage regulator.

The unattended aspect requires the network to self-organize and adapt to dynamic changes. A wireless, unattended ground sensor network was prototyped using commercial off-the-shelf technology and three to four networked nodes. Device and network performance were measured under indoor and outdoor scenarios. The measured communication range of a node varied between three and nineteen meters depending on the scenario. The sensors evaluated were an acoustic sensor, a magnetic sensor, and an acceleration sensor. The measured sensing range varied by the type of sensor. Node discovery durations observed were between forty seconds and over five minutes. Node density calculations indicated that the prototype was scalable to five hundred nodes. This thesis substantiated the feasibility of interconnecting, self-organizing sensor nodes in military applications. Tests and evaluations demonstrated that the network was capable of dynamic adaptation to failure and degradation. DTIC Communication Networks; Evaluation; Performance Tests; Telecommunication

Currently, USNORTHCOM does not have an apportioned or assigned command and control structure for the conduct of special operations. This thesis analyzes three courses of action to fulfill this requirement: use the current USNORTHCOM battle staff command structure including the integration of the Standing Joint Force Headquarters-North; rely on the newly formed US Special Operations Command’s Joint Task Force Structures; and establish a Theater Special Operations Command North assigned to USNORTHCOM. Through the conduct of analysis and research this thesis recommends that The Joint Staff direct the reorganization required to establish a Theater Special Operations Command North to exercise command and control of special operations forces conducting operations in the USNORTHCOM AOR.

In the 1990s, very few would have bet on the efficiency of the Italian Army in the new peace missions, but the decision to send troops outside the national borders has improved the image of the Institution. Today it is perceived useful, gaining the attention of the mass media. The Italian Army has succeeded in deleting the negative image when compared to other more organized and efficient armies. Today, in fact, it has the image of a modern armed force, professionally well prepared, efficient and reflective of the best values of the nation. The journey that led our Army to enjoy the widest appreciation for its work was favored by the non intrusive approach of our soldiers and by their capability of positive interaction with the local populations. In this sense, the empathetic characteristic of the Italian emerged on all occasions. The Italian servicemen revealed very special talents and characteristics, including the capability of socializing, of entering into relations with others, of integrating within the operations without being ‘cumbersome’. On the contrary, they were a precious support in the little and great difficulties suffered by people emerging from conflict or humanitarian disaster. This new image is also the outcome of fundamental changes in the way the institution approaches public affairs. DTIC Human Beings; International Relations; Males; Military Operations

This success comes at a cost for Americans as growing international criticisms of U.S. policy and anti-Americanism increases dramatically from other countries around the globe. In addition to this criticism during this time of unrivaled power, America has seen a drastic increase in attacks against its citizens in foreign countries, such as the Marine barracks bombing in Beirut, the Khobar tower attack, and the attack on the USS Cole. While terrorist attacks within the U.S. have been limited in nature comparatively, the attacks of September 11, 2001, have reawakened U.S. citizens to the inherent dangers of today s global environment, and the effects of anti-Americanism. Current U.S. policy is best stated by President Bush in the 2002 National Security Strategy: Freedom is the non-negotiable demand of human dignity, the birthright of every person-in every civilization. Does this policy of globalization increase or decrease anti- American sentiments at home and abroad? This research paper will study the history of anti- Americanism, its causes, and current policies, and offer recommendations to defeat anti-Americanism and limit its adverse effects.

CLF ships are very expensive to build and equip and our budget is limited we need to make sure the ships we buy and the way we integrate these with our CLF fleet can continue to provide the flexible support our Navy requires. We introduce a decision support tool using a global sea route and resupply base model, and a daily time resolution optimization of CLF ship activities to support any complete, worldwide scenario. Our result is an optimal, face-valid daily operational logistics plan a schedule of evolutions for each available CLF ship. We discover exactly how to use CLF ships to support a notional, but particularly relevant, preemptive combat scenario with follow-on humanitarian assistance missions. Finally, we study how changing CLF ship numbers and missions can enhance operational effectiveness.

20050173337 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Performance Analysis of Management Techniques for SONET/SDH telecommunications Networks Ng, Hwee P.; Mar. 2005; 77 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432669; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The performance of network management tools for SONET/SDH networks subject to the load conditions is studied and discussed in this thesis. Specifically, a SONET network which consists of four CISCO ONS 15454s, managed by a CISCO transport Manager, is set up in the Advanced Network Laboratory of the Naval Postgraduate School. To simulate a realistic data transfer environment for the analysis, Smartbits Avalanche software is deployed to simulate multiple client-server scenarios in the SONET network. Traffic from the management channel is then captured using a packet sniffer. Queuing analysis on the captured data is performed with particular emphasis on properties of self-similarity. In particular, the Hurst parameter which determines the captured traffic’s degree of self-similarity is estimated using the Variance-Index plot technique. Link utilization is also derived from the computation of first-order statistics of the captured traffic distribution. The study shows that less management data was exchanged when the SONET network was fully loaded. In addition, it is recommended that CTM 4.6 be used to manage not more than 1552 NEs for safe operation. The results presented in this thesis will aid network planners to optimize the management of their SONET/SDH networks.

The samples of the spectrum of the received signal are used

71 in the digital receiver to estimate the transmitted symbols through a matched filter operation in the discrete frequency domain. The proposed receiver is aimed at the reception of high information rates in a multicarrier signal with very large bandwidth. Thus, the receiver architecture provides a solution to some of the challenging problems found in the implementation of conventional wideband multicarrier receivers based on time-domain ADC, and it is directly applicable to multicarrier ultra-wideband communication receivers. Additional advantages of the proposed receiver include the possibility of optimally allocating the available number of bits for the A/D conversion across the frequency domain samples, narrowband interference suppression based on the MMSE solution that can be directly carried out in the frequency domain, and inherent robustness to frequency offset which makes it an attractive solution when compared with traditional multicarrier receivers.

However, antenna size reduction is done at the expense of gain and bandwidth. This follows from the fact that an antenna is used to transform a free wave into a radiated wave. One understands easily that an antenna can perform this transformation only with a poor efficiency when its size is much smaller than the wavelength. If the loss of gain ca_ be, to some extent, compensated by amplification, this is obviously not the case for the bandwidth.

74 Tapered slot antennas are simple planar structures with broadband characteristics that are typically used in arrays for radar applications, mobile satellite communications, and phased arrays. Many groups have studied tapered slot antennas using approaches that are either dominantly theoretical in nature or approaches that are more experimental in nature. Most published work has been limited to the linearly tapered slot and Vivaldi antennas. Very little has been published on the dual exponentially tapered slot antenna (DETSA), originally referred to as a wide band bunny-ear element [1]. Presented here is a performance characterization for the DETSA. It has been found that careful design of the DETSA can give improved directivity and half power beamwidth (HPBW) performance over the Vivaldi. Also presented is a method for def’ming the DETSA dimensions in terms of ratios so design features of different DETSAs can be quantified and their performance compared.

Its potential of being wideband and widescan makes it a prime candidate for high performance phased arrays. Parameter studies performed on single-polarized TSA arrays [2], [3] indicate that such a high performance array may be possible. More recently,Wunsch [4] presented a full-wave Moment Method (MoM) analysis program that is capable of analyzing dual-polarized infinite TSA arrays. The code has been extended here to include frequency interpolation [5] of the impedance matrix to reduce computation lime to an acceptable level so that a parameter study of dual-polarized TSA arrays can be performed. In this paper, the effects of the slotline cavity portion of the element is shown to have a significant impact on the low frequency performance of a dual-polarized TSA array and to affect also the mid-band and high frequency performance.

20050169593 Lockheed Martin Missiles and Space, Sunnyvale, CA, USA Relative Accuracy of Several Low-Dispersion Finite-Difference Time-Domain Schemes Shlager, Kurt L.; Schneider, John B.; IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, Volume 1; [1999], pp. 168-171; In English; See also 20050169565; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources For electrically large problems, the numerical dispersion inherent in the classical Yee finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) algorithm can introduce significant errors. Over the past ten years there have been several FDTD schemes published with the goal of reducing dispersion errors. In this paper, a comparison of the 2-D dispersion error of several of these low-dispersion schemes is made. The accuracy of each FDTD scheme is compared via direct evaluation of the dispersion relation governing the algorithm. (In addition, numerical experiments were performed to verify the derived dispersion relations.) The algorithms compared include Krumpholz and Katehi’s MRTD scheme, Hadi and Piket-May’s M24 scheme, Cole’s Non-Standard scheme, Forgy isotropic scheme, Nehrbass, Jetvic and Lee’s (NJL) reduced dispersion scheme, and Turkel’s Ty implicit scheme. The dispersion characteristics are typically derived by assuming a time harmonic plane-wave solution in an isotropic, homogeneous, linear, and lossless medium. The FDTD dispersion relation can be expressed in terms of the dispersion error per wavelength (lambda). This error is a function of the angle of propagation, the number of cells per wavelength, and the Courant number, which is given bys=cDelta t/delta. Because of space limitations, neither the FDTD algorithms nor their dispersion relations are presented here; instead, some ‘typical’ dispersion results are presented. All results are obtained assuming a uniform grid with spatial increments Delta z = Delta y = delta. Each scheme is evaluated at the Courant number which minimizes the dispersion for that algorithm at a resolution of 10 cells/lambda.

Although resonator method and waveguide method are widely used for microwave measurement[1],they require to cut sample for fitting inner walls, take a lot of labor and it is difficult to have accurate measurements especially on higher frequencies because of occurrence of errors by the cause of gap between the wall and the sample. On the other hand, effective method of nondestructive measurement to determine the complex permittivity of dielectrics from the reflected wave by contacting the flanged rectangular waveguide to dielectric sheet have been investigated in recent years[2][3][4]. In these investigations, the exact solution of reflection coefficient has been obtained by means of the spectral domain analysis, and gives good agreement with experimental results[4].

In these devices, there are always discontinuity for the constituent dielectrics in both shape and materials. Among them, the chiral medium is particularly receiving much interest because the chirality admittance provides one additional parameter that could make the practical designs more flexible. Traditionally, most of the investigations are based on the mode or field matching method with a particular class of geon_etries. Recently three-dimensional discontinuities in chiro-waveguides was first analysed in [1]. However, it has been recognized that for a method to be useful as a good design tool, it must be capable of efficiently handling three-dimensional discontinuities with general configurations. Among the available techniques, the finite-element method (FEM) has been considered to be simplest in formulation and most flexible in modelling arbitrary shaped, inhomogeneously dielectric-filled discontinuity.

76 The application of the ray-tracing technique to site-specific radio propagation models has been widely used recently. This technique can provide relatively fast and accurate prediction of pico and microcell radio coverage and channel impulse response. However, some other parameters such as fast fading statistics can be of great interest when designing a mobile radio system. Here we present a new method, which uses a ray-tracing technique [1] to obtain the fast fading statistics starting from the Doppler power spectral density. The method appears to be more efficient and accurate that the methods used up till now. Author Fading; Ray Tracing; Radio Frequencies; Radio Transmission

The properties of the RAM depend on the frequency and for wide-band absorption, a proper composite selection of these materials is necessary. This paper focuses on the design of a wide-band multilayered RAM coating for planar, cylindrical, and spherical conducting structures such that the RCS is reduced considerably. The method is based on the Genetic Algorithm (GA) optimization technique integrated with the modal solution of Maxwell’s equations in a multilayered geometry. It is shown that by a proper design of materials and their thickness, the RCS is reduced significantly in a wide frequency bandwidth. Additionally, it is observed that the application of optimized coating for planar structure can reduce the RCS of a cylindrical or spherical structure efficiently.

Thus, those circuits are enclosed in some kind of envelope or shield, in order to reduce the amplitude of the perturbations produced by them. Nevertheless, the external envelopes must sometimes be slotted, in order to connect the covered circuit to the exterior world (the expansion slots in PC’s are a very

77 common example). Unfortunately, these slots will radiate some electromagnetic perturbations, but an accurate design can keep them under critic values. As it will be shown below, traditional models based on aperture antennas can fail when some effects (like edge effects) are not negligible, so a numerical approach is needed. The problem of slotted screens has been studied in the past from the point of view of electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) using different numerical techniques. The authors presented a hybrid procedure based on the Finite Element Method (FEM) and the Modal Analysis that was successfully applied to the study of EMS problems in slotted envelopes. In this work, that procedure has been adapted for solving the electromagnetic interference (EMI) problem. Derived from text Electric Current; Finite Element Method; Perturbation; Slots

The grounded monopoles as well as other similar wire antennas are simple, and relatively inexpensive to manufacture. Their geometry though, is such that makes them protrusive and this is a real disadvantage in this industry, especially for indoor applications. Furthermore, the omnidirectional coverage might not be optimal for many situations, where asymmetrical patterns might be more appropriate. This paper proposes a number of non-protrusive antenna elements with an additional benefit: beam shaping. Derived from text Antenna Components; Omnidirectional Antennas; Asymmetry; Monopoles

A periodic array of conducting patch or aperture elements is often referred to as a frequency selective surface (FSS), or a dichroic filter. Such arrays are frequently analyzed via the Method of Moments utilizing a periodic Green’s function [1,2]. This method, however, is typically restricted to handling thin screens embedded in homogeneous dielectric layers. For more complex elements, the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method [3] appears to be an effective tool because of its ability to handle arbitrarily-shaped and inhomogeneous structures. For a normally-incident plane wave, it is relatively simple to truncate the FDTD computational domain in the transverse planes by using simple periodic boundary conditions [4-8]. However, the phase-shift or delay type of boundary conditions, that are required for the oblique incidence case, are considerably more difficult to implement. We propose to obviate this difficulty by employing the FDTD in the context of a waveguide simulator approach.

The IML is designed for objects that are smooth on the scale of the wavelength, and relies on a transformation that numerically sparsifies the MOM matrix. This is achieved by using basis functions that radiate strongly in preferred directions. In this paper, a hybrid IML-FMM technique is presented. The IML is used to sparsify the FMM far-field transformation matrices to further speed up the MOM matrix-vector multiplication. Although the proposed method does not decrease the rate of scaling of the computational cost, it does significantly reduce the actual cost associated with the solution of many practical 2D scattering problems. Furthermore, a windowed translation operator is also used, yielding an efficient O(N(sup 4/3)) FMM code for analyzing scattering from 2D perfect electrically conducting (PEC) surfaces.

In the low microwave frequency range, however, their size may be too large for practical applications. Several techniques have been proposed to reduce the size of the conventional half-wave patch. One approach uses expensive and heavy high dielectric constant material [1]. Another approach uses either a shorting wall [2] or a shorting pin [3]. The shorting wall leads to the quarterwave patch while a shorting pin near the feed can reduce the size even further. However, in both cases, the cross polarization level are quite high. Recently, a small folded patch antenna has been proposed [4]. Although the cross-polarization is quite low, the bandwidth is only 2.03% and the height of the patch is too high. In this paper, a new small two-layer microstrip patch is proposed. Author Miniaturization; Cross Polarization; Microstrip Antennas; Patch Antennas; Permittivity; Bandwidth

The antenna consists of a straight radiating element toploaded with a helical radiating element. The antennatop-loading reduces antenna physical length without decreasing its electrical length. In this way, although physically shorter, the antenna still produces low SAR values. A novel matching circuit with two contacts is placed within a mobile phone. One contact provides matching of the high input impedance of the antenna in extended position, while the lower input impedance of the antenna in retracted position is matched using the second contact. A detailed explanation of the matching circuit operation is given in the paper. The input impedance bandwidth (VSWR 2:1) of around 200 MHz, covering both AMPS and GSM frequency bands is achieved. A special attention is paid to reducing the antenna weight. A careful choice of materials used in the antenna fabrication and the development of appropriate production techniques enable a light antenna with the weight of about 1.5 g to be manufactured.

The two factors (3) and (4) are particularly considered here. The significance of the use of magnetic current in parallel to the ground plane is the effective use of its image. So far the planar inverted F antenna (PIFA) has been used in many handsets, as it matches the needs (1), (2) and (3), mentioned above [1]. However, in practical use, some gain degradation has been observed when an operator holds the handset. This is caused by the variation in the current distributions on the ground plane, which is produced by the excitation of the PIFA element. By being excited by the PIFA, the ground plane actually acts as a part of the antennas and contributes to improvement of the antenna performance, particularly when the antenna element is very small. It should be noticed that the currents on the ground plane increase antennas system gain, but instead the gain decreases when the currents are varied by the body effect sometimes seriously.

The higher order mode excitation of DRA is considered, so that the control of directional patterns can flexibly be achieved. The analysis is conducted in the receiving mode when the DRA is placed on the infinite ground plane. The electromagnetic fields inside the hemisphere DRA excited by an incident plane wave are calculated using the rigorous solution of the corresponding boundary value problem. It is shown the possibility of controlling the DRA’s radiation pattern with variation of its permittivity/permeability.

This is the first known measurement of the backscatter from snow at these frequencies and angles that are accompanied by extensive ground truth, including snow depth, air temperature, snow wetness and snow wet density. Measurement techniques for both the radar data and ground truth are described. Comparisons between the observations and ground truth are presented and correlated with our expectations for backscatter from snow derived from previous measurements of snow at higher angles of depression. For example, dry snow at 95 GHz exhibits sufficient extinction that the material underlying the snow is not observed with as little as 4 cm of snow cover. Comparison of diurnal measurements of the backscatter to simultaneous measurements of snow wetness 2 cm down into the snow pack show very strong hysteresis, indicating the sensitivity of the W-band radar to moisture is confined to a region very close to the top of the snow pack.

Collisions between plasma particles leads to the strong absorption of electromagnetic waves in many cases [1]. Meantime it is revealed that strong absorption exert great influence on the statistical characteristics of the waves in a chaotically inhomogeneous media and in the fn’st place on the angular distribution of power of scattered waves. In recent publications there were found that in asymmetric problem the influence mentioned above becomes more essential [2,3]. Evolution of wave statistical characteristics in the magnetized-collisional turbulent plasma is investigated by means of calculation of wave intensity angular moments on

81 the basis of the radiation transfer equation in this paper. This approach allows us to describe great enough distortions of an angular spectrum caused both by multiple scattering and absorption.

This behavior has been interpreted in the context of a mu-material which has an effective mu(sub r) greater than 1. Such artificial magnetic materials could be combined with dielectrics for potential use in creating low-backscatter coatings at radar frequencies. FinallyGAMMA it was also demonstrated in this paper how a GA can be used to determine the optimal hairpin inclusion geometry.

In these frequency ranges the use of guiding structures can be quite inefficient and single high power sources are difficult to produce. One possible solution to these problems is the use of quasi-optical circuits [1]. One of the problems of quasi-optical circuits is the difficulty of their design. This arises from the fact that they often have many active devices embedded in radiating structures and hence pose great problems for conventional circuit simulators. Quasi-optical circuits thus require a global simulation tool that can simulate all parts of the circuit, including active, passive and radiating elements. A promising method is the Lumped Element Finite Difference Time Domain [LF-FDTD)method [2], [3]. This approach allows for the incorporation of lumped element models including passive, active and non-linear devices directly into the traditional FDTD grid structure [4], [5]. The method is used in this paper to investigate the analysis and design of quasi-optical multipliers using diodes mounted in slot antennas. The conventional approach to slot multiplier design is to place the diode centrally in the slot, however, using LE-FDTD the diode can be offset in the slot to add an extra degree of freedom to the design process. It is felt that by placing the diode towards the end of the slot, in the low impedance region of the slot, improvements in performance may be possible.

Therefore, their antennas were required to be right-hand circularly polarized with a hemispherical coverage. The extension of the use of global positioning systems (GPS) with cellular phones, has introduced new antenna requirements, which are more challenging. Antennas for portable GPS/cellular phones are required to be small in size and light in weight. Furthermore, portable GPS/cellular phones are usually used in urban areas and probably inside buildings or vehicles. Thus, they suffer from multipath reflections, which result in rotation of polarization. Therefore, their antennas have to be sensitive to two perpendicular polarized waves rather than being vertically or right-hand circularly polarized. Moreover, portable GPS/cellular phones are randomly orientated by their operators. Hence, their radiation patterns should be quasi-isotropic. However, GPS/cellular phones always operate while they are hand-held beside the human head. Thus, their antennas are required to fulfill such requirements beside the human body as well as in free space. Furthermore, the effect of the human body on the antenna and also the effect of the antenna on the human body should be as small as possible.

This paper proposes a dual mode LPCBSA (DM-LPCBSA) which constitutes a variation on the LPCBSA that enables monopulse direction finding while maintaining the above advantages of the LPCBSA. The basic idea underlying the DM-LPCBSA is similar to that for the dual mode log-periodic dipole array proposed in [2]: two LPCBSAs are combined together into a superstructure that can operate in sum and different modes. This DM-LPCBSA antenna is highly suitable for wide-band target identification purposes. Derived from text Planar Structures; Circuits; Direction Finding; Broadband; Slots

Figure 1 presents the structure of an alternating-phase single-layer slotted waveguide array, where all the radiating waveguides are excited in the same amplitude but with opposite phase between the adjacent waveguides by T-junctions. This antenna is suitable for mass-production because it consists of a slot-plate and a groove feed structure. Electrical contact between the slot-plate and the groove feed structure except the periphery of the antenna can be omitted. The authors have already confirmed this principle experimentally [2]. This paper estimates the change in a guided wavelength of the co- and alternating-phase single-layer waveguides due to a small gap between the slot-plate and the narrow walls on the groove feed structure, in order to show how tolerate the latter is against the gap. This paper also confirms a high-gain performance of 35.5dBi with 67% efficiency of the alternating-phase fed array at 25GHz band experimentally, with the new design of a tilted main beam in the backfire direction. The design is used by a slot analysis including the mutual coupling effects. Derived from text Millimeter Waves; Microstrip Transmission Lines; High Gain; Slots; Frequencies

Frequently cited advantages of genetic algorithms compared to deterministic optimization methods include ease of implementation, low risk of converging to local minima, and the ability to search a large portion of the solution space simultaneously. Another fundamental advantage is the possibility to optimize non-differentiable functions on discrete solution spaces, such as a set of discrete material parameters. The majority of the antenna related work on GA has dealt with array pattern synthesis, thin wire antennas and FSS/absorber design. The application of GA to reflector design has received little or no attention. In this paper we investigate the application of GA to the design of a cylindrical reflector for an aperture coupled patch element. Our goal is a certain radiation pattern defined for both polarizations. The element and the reflector together form a sector antenna. The design of such antennas is of considerable interest since sector antennas with a half-power azimuth beamwidth in the range of 30 deg. -120 deg. constitute the majority of the base station antennas used in mobile communication systems today. Since base station antennas normally consist of linear arrays in order to focus the radiation to the horizontal plane, we will only regard the azimuth pattern in this paper. Recent years have seen a growing interest in polarization diversity and we will focus on the design of dual plus or minus 45 degrees polarized antennas. The key aspect of such antennas for good diversity performance has been shown to be equal response to vertical and horizontal field components, i.e. similar radiation patterns in the two polarizations.

The approach is to place dielectric loading inside the square waveguide to separate the cutoff frequencies of the TE(sub l0) and TE(sub 20) modes. The TE(sub 11) and TM(sub 11) modes are suppressed using mode filters. This novel approach referred to as the crossed septum dielectric loaded waveguide (CSW) extends the usable bandwidth of a square waveguide from 1.414:1 to 2.2:1. The resulting structure is a candidate radiating element for a high power, dual polarized phased array that offers graceful degradation over this extended frequency range.

These solvers have much higher computational efficiency than traditional approaches. However, for wide-band, wide-angle RCS calculations, the solver has to be executed repeatedly for each angle or frequency, which results in large computational expenses. A number of interpolation and extrapolation approaches have been developed to generate the RCS curve with as sparse a data sampling as possible. In this paper, we address the interpolation problem in frequency and angle using a model-based approach. Our approach is the adaptive feature extraction (AFE) algorithm. It has been used recently by us to eliminate the aliasing effect and construct ISAR image from unevenly undersampled measurement data. Unlike standard interpolation algorithms which suffers from the Nyquist sampling limitation, AFE can overcome the Nyquist sampling criterion by using uneven sampling. The essential idea of the adaptive algorithm is to search and extract out individual scattering features one at a time in an iterative fashion. When applied to the present problem, the interference between different scattering features can be avoided. After all the main features are extracted, the current and the RCS on a denser grid of sampling can be interpolated by summing the contributions from all the extracted scattering features. The AFE algorithm is

20050169661 Texas Univ., Austin, TX, USA Frequency Extrapolation and Model-Based Parameterization of Antenna-Platform Radiation from CEM Data Su, Tao; Wang, Yuan-Xun; Ling, Hao; IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, Volume 1; [1999], pp. 446-449; In English; See also 20050169565 Contract(s)/Grant(s): N00014-98-1-0178; F49620-96-1-0025; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources The numerical characterization of antenna radiation in the presence of a large, complex platform is usually very time consuming. The problem is further compounded when the radiation pattern is desired over a broad frequency band. In this paper, we present a frequency extrapolation technique for the antenna radiation problem to obtain the radiated field over a wide band of frequencies from a limited set of frequency calculations. Our approach is similar to our previous work on radar signature extrapolation. Given a CAD model of the platform, the induced current on the surface is first computed using a computational electromagnetics (CEM) simulator at a set of low frequencies. A time-of-arrival model is then applied to each current element and the superresolution algorithm ESPRIT is used to calculate the model coefficients. The frequency response of the current is extrapolated based on this model and the radiated field is obtained over a wide band of frequencies. The CEM simulator used in our work is the multi-level fast multipole solver FISC. As a follow-up to the frequency extrapolation algorithm, we also set out to extract a sparse point-radiator model of the antenna radiation pattern in the presence of the platform. We assume the total radiation over some extended frequency and aspect window can be approximated by the radiation from a set of radiation centers. The location and amplitude of the radiation centers are determined by using a matching pursuit algorithm. To speed up the parameterization time, we estimate the location of the radiation centers by utilizing a Fourier-based ASAR (Antenna Synthetic Aperture Radar) algorithm we have developed previously. The resulting sparse point-radiation center model can be used for real-time reconstruction of complex radiation patterns. In addition, it can be used to pinpoint cause-and-effect in antenna-platform interaction.

For surfaces where these currents cannot be easily calculated, it is useful to have a technique for surface current measurement that doesn’t require modification of the object. Last year, we described a measurement system for this purpose and simulated its performance using the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method. In this system, the magnetic field is measured on a planar surface a distance s in front of the object supporting the currents. These measurements are back propagated using a plane wave spectrum approach to obtain an estimate of the current. Parametric studies were performed to determine the effects of spacing s, sampling density, scan area, probe size, and signal to noise ratio (SNR) on the performance of the system. Only preliminary measurements were available at that time. Since then, more extensive measurements have been performed using an improved probe design, namely, a shielded loop with two feed points. This paper presents the results of the new measurements as well as details of a novel, local backpropagation approach.

85 the development of a FDTD model for a Vee dipole antenna [1]. When the arms of the dipole were modeled using a staircase of electric field components set to zero, the signal propagated along the arms at a velocity slower than the velocity of light. Further study determined that this staircase, meant to model a straight wire passing at an oblique angle through the FDTD grid, actually modeled a wire bent in a fashion similar to the staircase.

In the case of microstrip lines the wave attenuation is caused by the conductor loss, the substrate loss, and the radiation loss. The conductor loss is due to the finite conductivity of the strip material and is related to the skin depth of the conductor. As well, the current density near the edges of the microstrip is much higher and this also contributes to the wave attenuation. In the conductor loss calculations are based on the incremental inductance rule. The change in strip inductance due to the skin depth is used in this method for calculating the series resistance in the microstrip model, necessary for the evaluation of the attenuation constant. In this paper, we present a model for lossy microstrip lines based on the quasi-stationary field theory of the microwave planar structures. The first order two-dimensional equations derived from this theory can be written for time-harmonic fields in the form.

86 When FEM is used for studying 3-D problems, a large number of unknowns are involved, requiting large amounts of CPU time and memory for solving the system of equations. The application of techniques based on the segmentation concept has the advantage of reducing a complex problem into several easier problems. The segmentation technique can be implemented connecting the multimode and multiport matrices of the regions in which the global problem is divided. Basically, the multimode matrix of a multiport circuit can be obtained as a Generalized Admittance Matrix (GAM) or its dual a Generalized Impedance Matrix (GIM), or as a Generalized Scattering Matrix (GSM). Several attempts have bedn made for computing these matrices. An integral expression that extends to the volume of the circuit is proposed for the calculation of each of the coefficients of the GAM is presented. A formulation that yields the GSM by means of a matrix inversion that depends on the number of the modes is given. In this paper, it is introduced a method of analysis of passive microwave circuits based on 3-D FEM and the segmentation technique. Each one of the regions in which a global problem is divided is studied by using a formulation that leads to a system of equations with a symmetric sparse matrix which is independent of the number of modes used. Because of this, it is possible to increase or decrease this number at a negligible computational cost and to obtain efficiently the GAM from the resolution of a lower triangnlar system, without the need to calculate the field distribution in an intermediate step. The regions are minimized by using the segmentation teeimique and including sections ofwavegnide analytically, since their GAM or GSM are known. The connection of the regions is achieved by linking GAMs, or GSMs obtained from the GAMs. In order to increase the capability of segmentation, cylindrical ports couneeted by means of radial waveguides are included. The work has been also extended to inhomogeneous ports by using 2-D FEM to calculate numerical modes, but in this case, the efficiency decreases.

We apply this boundary condition to calculate the reflection coefficient of H- and E-polarized plane waves incident on a rough perfectly conducting surface. The reflection coefficients obtained here are compared to results in the literature, which demonstrate the accuracy of the effective boundary condition. We also specialize our result to obtain an effective boundary condition for a flat perfectly conducting plane with a thin cover layer. Author Boundary Conditions; Surface Roughness; Electromagnetism

87 Modal interaction phenomena on guided-wave structures are investigated using the theory of critical and singular points. It is demonstrated that two distinct regimes of modal behavior exist in the vicinity of the mode coupling region, which arise due to the presence of frequency-plane branch points of the dispersion function. These branch point singularities are intimately associated with the Morse point, which is a regular point of the dispersion function. It is further noted that which of the two regimes governs modal behavior depends on the path of frequency variation, or on the presence of loss for time-haxmonic problems.

Dual-depth corrugated waveguides have also been used when the feed is operated at two separate frequency bands [2]. In order to reduces losses and breakdown in high power microwave applications, the corrugation profile is continuous [3] rather than involving step discontinuities. A state-variable approach was used by Bromborsky and Ruth to determine the propagation constants of TM0(,) modes in a sinusoidally corrugated circular waveguide [3]. This approach, however, requires basis functions which are both continuous and differentiable at least once over the period of the structure. Its applicability to multiple abrupt discontinuities has not been demonstrated. On the other hand, the expansion in space harmonics as described in [1], is extremely complicated when the unit cell contains more than one depth [2]. In addition to leading to complex matrices, it requires solving a non-linear determinant equation for the propagation constants. The disadvantage of a determinant formulation of periodic structures are well described by Davies [4].

Q.; Chan, C. H.; Tsang, L.; Li, Q.; IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, Volume 1; [1999], pp. 522-525; In English; See also 20050169565 Contract(s)/Grant(s): RGCHK-9040372; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources With the advent of modern computers and development of efficient algorithms, Monte-Carlo simulations of two- dimensional random rough surfaces are now feasible. The most commonly used numerical method is the integral equation approach that results in an iterative solution to a matrix equation of a large order. Major efforts have been invested on speeding up the matrix-vector multiplication of the iterative solution. Over the years, we have systematically developed the sparse-matrix canonical grid method (SMCG) for analyzing 2D random rough surfaces. The same method has also been extended to treat densely packed microstrip interconnects. The key to the success of SMCG is that the majority portion of the matrix-vector multiplication can be computed efficiently using the fast Fourier transform algorithm (FFT). This is achieved through a Taylor series expansion of the Green’s function. More recently, a physic-based two-grid method (PBTG) is developed to treat lossy dielectric rough surfaces with high permittivity. Approaching the random surface from the upper air region, a coarse sampling of 8 to 10 points per linear wavelength is sufficient. In contrast, a dense sampling of 16 to higher number of sample points is necessary when approaching the surface from the lower lossy medium with high permittivity. The advantage of PBTG is that it has the same accuracy as a single dense sampling and yet has the CPU time comparable to that of a single coarse sampling. The PBTG method in conjunction with the SMCG has been successfully implemented to study scattering by one-dimensional lossy dielectric rough surfaces with high permittivity. To extend the combined PBTG-SMCG method to two-dimensional surfaces, the number of unknowns increases rapidly, as there are six unknowns associated with each surface sampling points. We then turn our attention to implement the combined PBTG-SMCG on a cost-effective parallel-computing platform, namely, the Beowulf system.

The method constitutes a hybridization of the multilevel fast multipole algorithm (MLFMA) [1] and the steepest descent path (SDP) method. The SDFMM has been successfully used to analyze scattering from three-dimensional quasi-planar structures [2]. Both the memory requirements and the computational cost of the SDFMM are of O(N) as opposed to O(N(sup 2)) for the conventional MOM technique using an iterative solver.

Today, there are over 2.6 million mobile phones roaming in the cosmopolitan city of 6.8 million inhabitants, one of the highest rates of penetration in the world. About a quarter of these mobile phones are PCS whose share of the market is rapidly increasing. To provide reliable services to choosey users in Hung Kong, most of the PCS vendors imported turn key systems. In the fiscal year of 1997, Hong Kong imported US$ 7.741 billion of telecommunications equipment while only exported a meager US$341 million. The topography in Hong Kong is very unfriendly to mobile communications due to tall buildings, narrow streets, the busy harbor, the mountainous terrain and the scattered islands. Modifications to the imported systems are sometimes unavoidable. Local mobile phone industry is more a service provider than a product manufacturer. Majority of the front line research on antennas for PCS and other wireless communications services is conducted in local universities. Both the Wireless Communications Research Center of the City University of Hong Kong and the Center for Wireless Information Technology of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology have strong research programs on antenna research for PCS and other wireless communications frequency bands. In this paper, we present some of our recent work on antennas size reduction and bandwidth broadening.

The main base station antennas of Japanese PDC system are macro cellular and its covering area is 1.5 km to 3 km in radius.

The services for these places are given by micro cellular or booster system. The coverage area is 200 m to 1 km. The base station antennas for this purpose should have special characteristics, for example, bi-directional radiation pattern, multi-frequency use, and polarization diversity.

The effects of lightning can be roughly distinguished as direct and indirect. The direct effects axe closely related to the points where the lightning arc enters and exits the aircraft. Examples of different effects include melting of the aircraft skin, puncture of nonconducting externally mounted parts and sparks in the fuel system. The indirect effects [1] have to do with the magnetic and electric fields coupled to the interior of the aircraft. These can cause temporary upset or even permanent damage to the electronic equipment of the aircraft. The mechanisms through which this coupling can happen are resistive voltage drop on the airframe structure and through apertures, such as windows. Even with no apertures, the lightning current flowing in the metal wall of the airframe produces a non zero magnetic field at the interior. This field together with the resistive voltage drop form the diffusion mechanism. In this paper the lightning current on a structure is modeled using FDTD. Then the diffusion mechanism described for simple cylindrical structures and simulation results are shown. Finally, results on a Blackhawk helicopter structure excited with a lightning pulse are presented.

The conventional approaches focus on statistical methods, ray tracing methods and geometrical optics (GO) methods. The statistical methods need a lot of measured data to predict the propagation characteristics inside buildings. Moreover, statistical models can not relate wave propagation characteristics to the exact locations of the transmitter and receiver. They can provide only a collection of possible channel profiles. The ray tracing and GO techniques may be two reasonable algorithms for the studies of wave propagation inside buildings but they are very difficult to give the detail descriptions of electromagnetic field distributions in specified areas. Furthermore, in many of the practical applications the computational time with the ray tracing or GO techniques grows exponentially with the increase in the complexity of the buildings. Using numerically exact analysis methods such as finite-difference in time-domain (FDTD) and method of moments (MoM), one can carry out direct solutions of Maxwell equations. In particular, the FDTD method is very suitable to deal with this type of problem because it simultaneously provides a complete solution for EM fields at all points in preselected regions. This is very important when signal coverage throughout a given area is to be determined. On the other hand, the disadvantage of the FDTD method is that its memory requirements and computational time increase with the increase in the frequency of operation and the size of the area of interest. Recenfly an effective material property technique was proposed to replace the periodic concrete walls analytically with effective dielectric walls. The application of this technique allows the cell size in the FDTD simulation, which was restricted to the geometrical complexity of the original periodic concrete walls, to increase tremendously, and therefore reduces the memory requirement and computational time. In this paper, the accuracy and efficiency of this effective material property technique are validated to test the wave attenuation in the frequency range of UHF. Two models for FDTD simulations are employed and compared. In the first model, the periodic concrete block wall consisting of air and cement is directly divided into many cells with equal size. In the second model, the periodic concrete wall is replaced with an equivalent solid wall, which occupies with the same volmne, using the effective material property technique. With the aid of effective material property technique, the cell number and computational time in the FDTD simulations are greatly reduced. The simulation results of EM fields and power density distributions for these two different models are presented. Measurements of power density distributions are also finished in an anechoic chamber, and will also be compared with those obtained from theoretical studies.

While the MoM is powerful, it has limitations that restrict its utility. In particular, for N unknowns, the required memory (RAM) is of order O(N(sup 2)), while the computational complexity depends on whether a direct (LU-decomposition) or iterative (conjugate gradient CG) solver is applied, the former requiring O(N(sup 3)) operations and the latter O(N(sup 2)) operations per iteration. To counter these limitations, there has been significant interest in the fast multipole method (FMM) [2-5]. The simplest two-level implementation [2,3] has complexity O(N(sup 3/2)) in RAM and CPU, while a multi-level FMM [4,5] further reduces this to O(NlogN). While the FMM represents a promising tool, it has heretofore been applied primarily to free-space scattering [2-5], 2D analysis in layered media [6], or quasi-planar 3D problems in circuit and antenna design [7]. There are many important applications for which the free-space model or the quasi-planar approximation are not valid. For example, there has been significant interest in radar sensing of buried targets, such as mines or unexploded ordnance (UXO). Moreover, the soil must be included in the analysis of scattering from a target situated above and near the ground (e.g., vehicles). While mines are generally small, and therefore amenable to an MoM analysis, many targets of interest are not. It is therefore desirable to adapt the FMM to the problem of scattering from a target in the vicinity of a halfspace interface. Here we concentrate on an extension of the two-level FMM [2,3], while similar modifications are possible with the multi-level FMM [4,5].

They offer greater agility in controlling the radiation characteristics of the antenna. Their inherent anisotropy and non-reciprocal properties [1], permit variable frequency tuning [2], and antenna polarization diversity [3]. External biasing of the ferrite substrate also allows for beam steering [4] and pattern shape control [5], [6]. Ferrites may be most advantageous in the area of antenna arrays, specifically beam steering. Normally, beam steering is accomplished through mechanical means. In contrast, ferrites accomplish beam scanning by taking advantage of the ferrite substrate’s dependence on the applied bias field, Ho, and we will demonstrate this effect through measurements and calculations. By varying Ho, the radiation pattern of the array can be steered. In microstrip antenna array applications, a normally biased substrate significantly changes the phase of the microstrip feed lines. This change in the electrical lengths of the feed fines, is controlled by Ho, and enables scanning of the array beam. Ferrite arrays have been investigated and have been shown to demonstrate good beam steering capability as verified by experimental and calculated results [7], [8]. In this paper we considered a different method for array beam steering. Specifically, phase shifting was achieved by changing the bias field with a partially magnetized substrate underneath the feed lines.

The formulation has been recently extended to the analysis of infinite phased arrays by incorporating the Floquet’s theorem, which simplifies the problem to a single element in a unit cell of dimensions w(sub x) x w(sub y), as is shown in Fig. 1. In addition, using the Poisson sum formula [2] the admittance matrix of the exterior periodic region can be written as an infinite double summation of Floquet modes. For most cases considered in this paper, 80 modes are sufficient to achieve

92 convergence of the exterior problem. The interior of the cavity, which is loaded with magnetized ferrites, is treated using the FEM. The latter provides the versatility of analyzing other than planar type of metalizations on infinite substrates, which was a popular topic of past research [3,4]. It is also instructive to mention that the use of a metallic cavity to enclose the radiating element helps eliminate surface waves which are known to create blind spots as the array is scanned in space.

93 Momentary short-circuit arcs between a defective polyimide-insulated wire and another conductor may thermally char (pyrolize) the insulating material. The charred polyimide, being conductive, can sustain the short-circuit arc, which may propagate along the wire through continuous pyrolization of the polyimide insulation (arc tracking). If the arcing wire is part of a multiple-wire bundle, the polyimide insulation of other wires within the bundle may become thermally charred and start arc tracking also (flash over). Such arc tracking can lead to complete failure of an entire wire bundle, causing other critical spacecraft or aircraft failures. Unfortunately, all tested candidate wire insulations for aerospace vehicles were susceptible to arc tracking. Therefore, a test procedure was designed at the NASA Lewis Research Center to select the insulation type least susceptible to arc tracking. This test procedure addresses the following three areas of concern: (1) probability of initiation, (2) probability of reinitiation (restrike), and (3) extent of arc tracking damage (propagation rate). Item 2 (restrike probability) is an issue if power can be terminated from and reapplied to the arcing wire (by a switch, fuse, or resettable circuit breaker). The degree of damage from an arcing event (item 3) refers to how easily the arc chars nearby insulation and propagates along the wire pair. Ease of nearby insulation charring can be determined by measuring the rate of arc propagation. Insulation that chars easily will propagate the arc faster than insulation that does not char very easily. A popular polyimide insulated wire for aerospace vehicles, MIL-W-81381, was tested to determine a degree of damage from an arcing event (item 3) in the following three environments: (1) microgravity with air at 1-atm pressure, (2) 1g with air at 1 atm, and (3) 1g within a 10^-6 Torr vacuum. The microgravity 1-atm air was the harshest environment, with respect to the rate of damage of arc tracking, for the 20 AWG (American Wiring Gauge) MIL-W-81381 wire insulation type . The vacuum environment resulted in the least damage. Further testing is planned to determine if the environmental results are consistent between insulation types and to evaluate the other two parameters associated with arc tracking susceptibility.

This allows the manufacturing company to stay competitive with the semiconductor industry. This paper describes a continuous improvement process through the implementation of a scrubber post SOG etchback to remove TEOS backside etch. As the particle level of the backside of the wafer increase after SOG etchback, TEOS backside etch was done to clean the backside of the wafer to minimize focusing error in subsequent photolithography steps. The module involves resist coating the front side of the wafer, a buffer HF oxide etch followed by the resist ash and strip. Replacing the entire module with backside scrub offers significant saving in chemical cost, reduction in process cycle time and increased capacity of the sink, coater and the asher. Detailed descriptions of the old and new process and a comparison of particle and yield data will be presented. Overall improvement in the manufacturing process will be demonstrated by measures of cycle time, chemical cost, personnel efficiency, reduction in equipment purchases, and fab capacity.

This paper describes the early process transfer phase of a technology installation into a manufacturing. The effects of photolithography induced metal line end shortening foreshortening) can have a significant impact on the etched Ti/AlCu/Ti/TiN metal lines. This defect observed after metal etch is directly attributed to foreshortening of the photoresist lines. When a tungsten contact (interconnect) is not fully covered by a resist line during the metal etch and subsequent chromic phosphoric clean operation, attack of the Ti/AlCu/Ti metallurgy occurred. The metal defect resulted in test yield loss due to open metal line and high via resistance which impacted wafer final test yield. This defect was found to impact single metal to via interfaces within small via chain defect monitors which lead to serious reliability concerns due to the low level of detectability for this problem on products.

Several formulations of experimental copper slurries containing alumina abrasive particles were evaluated for their selectivity of copper to Ta, TaN and PETEOS film. The extent of copper dishing and oxide erosion of these slurries is investigated with various process parameters such as slurry flow rate, platen speed and wafer pressure. The amount of dishing and erosion is found to be largely dependent on process parameters as well as the slurry composition. It is shown that the extent of oxide erosion and copper dishing can be significantly reduced by using a two slurry copper polish process (one slurry to polish copper and another to polish barrier layers) in conjunction with an optical endpoint detection system.

The advantages of such a structure are investigated and appear consistent with low voltage / high performance applications. The main technological features associated to this incorporation are discussed (Ta2O5 densification and interfacial oxide, gate electrode and related features, etching, TiN behavior, etc.) and a full process flow with few modifications with respect to standard CMOS is presented. With this flow, real devices were processed and their electrical characteristics are shown. These results are close to current SiO2 MOS ones, and are therefore promising for sub-2.5nm equivalent SiO2 thickness gate dielectric. Author CMOS; Dielectrics; Tantalum Oxides; Gates (Circuits)

GraMMS consists of four main applications namely; Dynamic Dispatch, WIP Monitoring System (WMS), Equipment Management System (EMS), and Throughput Monitoring System (TMS). GraMMS [1] provides Motorola semiconductor wafer fabs with instant data-driven decision support and trend analysis as well as a short-interval scheduler via discrete-event simulation. The Dynamic Dispatch system is a combination of simulation and heuristics based on concepts from the Theory of Constraints. This competitive advantage increases output, decreases cycle time, and improves resource utilization.

Also, most of the work carried out in the area of wafer cleaning has been focused

97 on the low power 1C industry where the active area of the device lay in the top 1 or 2 microns of the wafer. However, in the discrete power device industry the use of lateral and vertical current flow, for high current density distribution, means that the entire substrate becomes part of the device active area. Therefore, metallic contamination even in the bulk of the silicon can severely degrade device performance. In this study a modified RCA wafer cleaning mixture with improved megasonic energy enhancement 3 and various rinsing techniques is investigated for use in high-volume power semiconductor device manufacturing. The effectiveness of the modified dilute SC-1/SC-2 procedure is demonstrated by various material, electrical and optical analysis techniques such as ELYMAT, TXRF, laser particle counter and Wright etching. The overall advanced aqueous wafer cleaning technique shows excellent contamination removal, cleaning efficiencies greater than or equal to 95% @ 0.15microns and a reduced cost of ownership.

Point-of-Use (POU) filtration of photoresists has been used to control particle contamination on the wafer surface during coating operations. The need for tighter filtration has led to the introduction of 0.05 micron as well as the traditional 0.10 micron membranes to control the contamination during the dispense of photoresists. With the introduction of tighter membranes for use in photoresist filtration, the enduser may have concerns that the photoresist may suffer some deleterious effects by undergoing filtration.

Cross section SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), tilted stage inspection SEM and AFM (Atomic Force Microscope) are common tools to get information of sidewall angles. However, sidewall angles are not routinely determined using in-line metrology tools like CD (Critical Dimension) SEM. In this study, we use CD SEM to measure feature edge widths (EW) in both FEM and STI wafers. The sidewall angle is estimated from known feature height (resist thickness or etched trench depth) with a linear slope assumption. A flared tip AFM (Veeco SXM) or a cross section SEM (X-SEM) is used as a reference to check CD SEM performance on sidewall angle measurements. We find that for sidewall angles less than 88deg, CD SEM measurements match reference tool measurements on sidewall angle well. The limitations of CD SEM on sidewall angle measurement are also discussed. Author Wafers; Exposure; Thickness; Metrology; Atomic Force Microscopy; Scanning Electron Microscopy

An undercutting (notching) of metal lines and underlayer-dependent oxide etch have been studied using a non-contact oxide charging monitor technique. It is shown that the dry etching process is strongly affected by plasma induced wafer charging and by underlying conducting films. The undercutting of metal lines occurs when the metal pattern is electrically connected to the substrate. Specially designed oxide monitor wafers with an underlayer of metal pattern were used for charging distribution studies. It was demonstrated that the connection of a metal underlayer to the silicon substrate causes strong accumulation of positive charges in the wafer center. Strong undercutting of metal lines occurred under

98 these conditions. The resulting pattern of plasma induced charge correlates to the undercutting pattern. Author Plasmas (Physics); Damage; Etching; Wafers; Electric Charge

Single and dual Cu damascene includes multiple use of CMP both for dielectric planarization and removal of the excessive field material. Therefore CMP performance is of extremely high importance for Cu technology. Orbital polishing is known as an effective CMP technique [1]. The advantages of this technique are high material removal uniformity (@3 mm EE), planarization efficiency, high throughput, small foot-print, low cost of ownership. This paper summarizes our experience in Cu-CMP R&D with IPEC’s Avantgaard 676&776 orbital planarizers.

In this approach, the facilities are divided into a number of bays that contain processing equipment. This process layout creates a large amount of material flows between bays. While there may be other, perhaps more efficient layout arrangement strategies, the semiconductor industry is reluctant to adopt these strategies since the bay configuration offers many advantages in terms of maintenance and operation of the physical equipment. In the near future, however, the layout problem of a 300mm semiconductor wafer fab may pay more attention to the material handling topic than these advantages due to 300mm wafer’s size, weight, and cost issues. The effect on cycle time and WIP level of wafer will need to be considered especially in the layout problem of a 300ram wafer lab. Adopting the idea of GT layout, this paper proposes a layer-based approach for solving the fab facility layout problem. This approach groups the equipment of continuous process layer in the same area or cell. The continuous layer groups consist of processing layers that their process steps are in sequence. The configuration of cells is sequentially determined by the major process flows, and the arrangement of the machines within each cell is a flow-line layout such that the whole process steps of a layer can be done within a cell. An

99 evaluation for the layer-based layout on a sample manufacturing environment is demonstrated. Results show the efficiency and effectiveness of our layer-based layout approach. Author Fabrication; Layouts; Semiconductors (Materials); Process Control (Industry)

It is often difficult to determine the effect of a manufacturing practice that is well established. Where there is no automated delivery, work-in-process (WIP) transfer between processing equipment consumes operator time, and the effect is not well understood. This work quantifies the time and distance that a set of production operators spent moving product or WIP. Those data were difficult to acquire, and were essential a establishing knowledge of present conditions so that improvement could be proposed. An example is provided of how difficult-to-obtain data can indeed be gathered. At times, off-the-shelf technology designed for another purpose can be useful in arriving at a solution. A bicycle cyclometer, capable of providing time, distance, and speed readings, was adapted to function on a five-inch caster. This caster was installed onto a common semiconductor wafer-box delivery cart. This paper describes the data-gathering experiment, in cooperation with production operators. Learning from this experiment, including installation of the cyclometer, actual data, and how it supported follow-on improvement is discussed.

Hewlett Packard’s Inkjet Supplies Business Unit has worked with a supplier to develop a first of its kind system that uses overhead rails and vehicles with hoisting mechanisms to perform direct-to-tool delivery of 200 mm podded wafers. The system is intended to increase factory throughput by providing ‘just in time’ delivery of material and improve safety by minimizing the amount of manual handling. The system also provides the benefit of a near zero footprint, leaving valuable floor space for process tools. While the system was built specifically for 200 mm material, most of this effort is directly applicable to 300 mm systems as well. The results of recent tests on the new system are very promising. Tool-to-tool delivery time was approximately 38 seconds, and pod placement accuracy was satisfactory regardless of pod load or vertical hoisting distance. Long term reliability tests indicated a mean cycles between interrupts (MCBI) for each vehicle of approximately 3,286 cycles (with a cycles being defined as a pod move from one tool to another). (The supplier’s current design goal is to achieve 12,000 MCBI.) All but one of the incidents encountered during reliability testing were recovered in roughly one minute or less. A third party failure mode analysis identified a small number of potential safety hazards, which the supplier is currently addressing. Our study also identified a number of issues that need to be addressed prior to implementation in a production facility. These include the need for improved vehicle maintenance procedures and better methods of identifying, troubleshooting and resolving system errors. In addition, further modeling and scenario testing may need to be performed to better estimate system benefits and potential integration issues for specific applications.

Currently a dielectric etch reactor must be capable of handling a range of dielectrics such as doped and undoped silica glass, silicon nitride, organic

100 anti-reflection layers and low k dielectric materials of a predominantly organic composition. Successful etch tools perform the ‘critical’ steps required for contact, self-aligned contact (SAC), via and dual damascene structures as well as the less critical steps such as spacer and passivation that are required by leading edge 0.25 micron generation devices as they enter volume production. Finally all the etches must be cost effective as measured with the standard metrics of Cost of Ownership (COO), and Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE). In this paper we will describe how these metrics have been used to generate several product improvement programs for an advanced dielectric reactor, the 4520XLE from Lam Research. Both process and productivity improvements will be shown for sub-0.3tam feature size devices. These improvements show promise of extending the applicability of the 4520XLE reactor to below 0.2 micron feature sizes.

In a paradigm shift, understanding the role of defects and how they affect yield will be as important. All the defects are not killer defects and having the ability to detect the important yield reducing defects in a particular step will be vital. In this paper, we have focused on the major issues related to defects and process integration (e.g. introduction of new materials, new processes, new tools etc.), new understanding of defects that can lead to the development of sub-100 nm silicon ICs. The defect reduction and yield improvement constraints will require process control techniques capable of handling large amount of defect dam. In deep sub-l00 nm realm, it will force us to look for process simplification to reduce complex manufacturing operations. Author Silicon; Nanotechnology; Electronics; Manufacturing; Dielectrics

This reliance will be required for reliability, cleanliness, performance, cost, and ergonomic considerations. Traditional interbay movement systems have achieved exceptional performance by carrying primarily single product lots. Multicapacity vehicles offer production facilities more advanced capabilities. They have the ability to mix lots during delivery or pickup, operating much the same as a postman. This paper investigates the relationship between vehicle carrying capacity and process tool batch size by experimenting with a simulation model of the diffusion process. Results indicate that vehicle capacity is the most significant factor impacting average delivery time.

Most of the practical uses of TOC are for bottlenecks with only one visit in the fabrication process such us the typical job shops linear lines. Applying TOC to constraints with multiple steps has demonstrated to be too complex to handle a semiconductor shop-floor. This restriction to constraints with only one visit limits TOC potential in semiconductor environments. First, most of the facilities used in semiconductor manufacturing have several visits in the process flow and, it is not easy to find a suitable facility with only one step. Second, typically several product families are manufactured in the same fab and share a great number of facilities. Third, the product’s lifecycle is very short, making it very difficult to keep the bottleneck always in the same facility. Fourth, the real constraint in this industry is capital, therefore, if you are able to choose a facility as your bottleneck, it should be the facility that requires the most capital.

Many complex challenges arise in fab consolidations. With transparent results to customers being the main objective, one intricate issue is the transfer of a technology. During the 4th quarter of 1996, Motorola Bipolar-3 (BP3) experienced a significant increase in Request For Product, particularly, MOSAIC 1 technology. The demand exceeded BP3’s capacity. Since Motorola Bipolar-2 (BP2) ran similar processes and had excess capacity, it was decided to qualify the MOSAIC 1 technology in BP2. Since these two manufacturing areas do not have identical equipment and processes, it was extremely difficult to transfer and match processes and technology between these two fabs. This paper depicts a systematic approach in transferring MOSAIC 1 technology from BP3 to BW2. Novel techniques were applied that can be the framework for future transfers, which include: developing and employing the concept of virtual flow, and thorough docun_ntation of the transfer. In addition, this paper provides a unique solution to the problems incurred with a particular device. The outcome, ahead of schedule, was a successful qualification of the device.

Four K/Ka-band experimental arrays were demonstrated between May 1994 and May 1995. Each array had GaAs MMIC devices at each radiating element for electronic beam steering and distributed power amplification. The 30-GHz transmit array used in uplinks to ACTS was developed by Lewis and Texas Instruments. The three 20-GHz receive arrays used in downlinks from ACTS were developed in cooperation with the Air Force Rome Laboratory, taking advantage of existing Air Force integrated-circuit, active-phased-array development contracts with the Boeing Company and Lockheed Martin Corporation. Four demonstrations, each related to an application of high interest to both commercial and Department of Defense organizations, were conducted. The location, type of link, and the data rate achieved for each of the applications is shown. In one demonstration-- an aeronautical terminal experiment called AERO-X--a duplex voice link between an aeronautical terminal on the Lewis Learjet and ACTS was achieved. Two others demonstrated duplex voice links (and in one case, interactive video links as well) between ACTS and an Army high-mobility, multipurpose wheeled vehicle (HMMWV, or ‘humvee’). In the fourth demonstration, the array was on a fixed mount and was electronically steered toward ACTS. Lewis served as project manager for all demonstrations and as overall system integrator. Lewis engineers developed the array system including a controller for open-loop tracking of ACTS during flight and HMMWV motion, as well as a laptop data display and recording system used in all demonstrations. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory supported the AERO-X program, providing elements of the ACTS Mobile Terminal. The successful performance of experimental, proof-of-concept MMIC K/Ka-band arrays developed with U.S. industry in field demonstrations with ACTS indicates that high density MMIC integration at 20 and 30 GHz is indeed feasible. The successful development and demonstration of the MMIC array systems was possible only because of significant intergovernmental and Government/ industry cooperation and the high level of teamwork within Lewis. The results provide a strong incentive for continuing the focused development of MMIC-array technology for satellite communications applications, with emphasis on packaging and cost issues, and for continuing the planning and conducting of other appropriate demonstrations or experiments of phased-array technology with ACTS.

20050173324 Brigham Young Univ., Provo, UT USA An Overview of Algorithms for Downlink Transmit Beamforming Swindlehurst, A. L.; Peel, Chris; Spencer, Quentin; Dec. 2004; 30 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432630; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Downlink beamforming refers to the problem of using an array of antennas at a particular node (e.g. a basestation) in a wireless network to communicate simultaneously with multiple co-channel users. The users in the network may have a single antenna and hence no ability for spatial discrimination or they may have multiple antennas and the ability to perform some type of interference suppression. The primary issue is how to balance the need for high received signal power for each user against the interference produced by the signal at other points in the network. In this presentation we describe several approaches to this problem: channel inversion regularized channel inversion channel block diagonalization coordinated transmit/receive beamforming and dirty-paper coding. While the basic idea behind these algorithms is the same namely the use of channel information at the transmitter to predict and then counteract the interference produced at each node in the network each of the algorithms is based on achieving a different performance objective. Typical performance criteria include zero-interference transmission minimum transmit power subject to a minimum signal-to-interference plus noise ratio at each receiver or maximum throughput subject to a given transmit power constraint We compare the various goals of the above algorithms and detail their respective advantages and disadvantages in terms of computational complexity required transmit power, network throughput, and assumed receiver capabilities. The results of several simulation studies are presented to quantify these comparisons. DTIC Algorithms; Beamforming; Downlinking

Their very high surface-to-volume ratio makes them ideal sensors in situations where the gaseous species adsorbing on their surface donate or extract charge, in turn affecting the nanowire’s conductivity. By reversing the process, nanowires configured as FETs potentially allow the surface chemistry, and hence the catalytic properties of the nanowire, to be tuned using the gate voltage as a kind of chemical-potential-setting parameter. An exciting goal is to use functionalized single-nanowire FETs or devices based on nanowire arrays as systems on whose surface not only the rate and extent of a catalytic reaction but also its selectivity can be varied entirely by varying the voltages applied to the device’s terminals.

The creation of this class of biosensors could specifically aid in the detection of hazardous bioagents and other toxins. Understanding the validity and sensitivity of these sensors should also help with determining the mechanisms of drug- and chemical- induced toxicity (Davila et al, 1998). The current systems have been validated using a wide-range of toxins including synthetic pesticides, common heavy metals, and widely studied drugs used in treating cardiac dysfunction. We have tested these various bioagents on two different systems - MEAs and FETs, and have found that they can be used for testing in a high throughput platform for toxicity evaluation.

However, many of the fundamental physical mechanisms responsible for radiation-induced degradation were not elucidated, which limits the ability to extend the hardening methods to future generations of technology. This MURI program combined recently developed atomic-scale computational techniques and physical-analysis tools with an engineering approach to analyzing radiation effects in electronics. The computational work focused on using density functional theory to understand problems such as the enhanced low dose rate sensitivity of irradiated bipolar junction transistors and the fundamental mechanisms responsible for interface-trap formation. Several experimental techniques, including second harmonic generation and cathodoluminescence spectroscopy, were adapted to analyzing radiation-induced defects. The radiation response of advanced technologies, including GaAs- and GaN-based transistors, vertical cavity surface emitting lasers, and ultrathin dielectrics, was evaluated experimentally. All of these technologies appear promising for use in future defense and space systems. DTIC Bipolar Transistors; Defects; Radiation Effects; Radiation Hardening; Semiconductors (Materials)

In our method for forming the superlattice pseudopotential, the critical assumption is that the heterointerface charges are redistributed, making each constituent layer in the superlattice as bulk-like as possible. Here, we demonstrate that our technique for forming the superlattice pseudopotential is fundamentally different from the atomistic pseudopotential approaches that use a superposition of atomic pseudopotentials to represent the superlattice. We then present several applications of our method to InAsGaSb Type-II superlattices and, where possible, we compare our results to those calculated with an effective mass method, as well as to atomistic EPM methods. In all of these comparisons, our method provides excellent agreement with the measured data. DTIC Pseudopotentials; Superlattices

In this final report we emphasize those aspects of the SESM construction where funding provided under this pilot project made a substantial difference in the planning and design phase of the development even if additional funds were required for the eventual realization such as: (1) Development and design of stiff cantilever allowing for stable SPM operation and control at sub nanometer sample - tip separations. (2) Broadband detection of the cantilever motion is fed into a computer cluster for real time analyzes; complex distributed software has been developed for that. (3) Satisfactory millimeter wave excitations have been achieved with the developed mm wave power amplifiers and strip-line resonators.

J.; McInerney, M. K.; Feickert, C. A.; Nielsen, P. H.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A433007; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Intense electromagnetic (EM) fields can disrupt, disable, damage, or destroy sensitive electronic equipment that is needed to perform critical functions such as those related to command, control, communications, computer, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR). EM shielding is used to protect equipment against such detrimental effects to promote the survivability of mission critical systems. Ferromagnetic materials can have a high magnetic permeability, which may be a significant advantage in shielding applications; however, the permeability varies with applied magnetic field intensity. An understanding of the performance of ferromagnetic shields under intense transient field conditions is needed to design a shield to attenuate fields to an acceptable level, to predict the performance of a given shield, or to determine the level of EM fields that would defeat a given shield and induce unacceptable EM field levels. This paper presents the results of an experimental investigation of the nonlinear response of thin-walled ferromagnetic shields to short-duration surface current pulses. The results provide an improved understanding of the performance of ferromagnetic shields under intense transient EM field conditions.

20050169928 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Drive Motor Improved for 8- by 6-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel/9- by 15-Foot Low-Speed Wind Tunnel Complex [2005]; 1 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: Other Sources; Abstract Only An operational change made recently in the drive motor system for the 8- by 6-Foot Supersonic Wind Tunnel (8x6 SWT)/9- by 15-Foot Low-Speed Wind Tunnel (9x15 LSWT) complex resulted in dramatic power savings and expanded operating range. The 8x6 SWT/9x15 LSWT complex offers a unique combination of wind tunnel conditions for both high- and low-speed testing. Prior to the work discussed in this article, the 8- by 6-ft test section offered airflows ranging from Mach 0.36 to 2.0. Subsonic testing was done in the 9-ft high, 15-ft wide test area in the return leg of the facility. The air speed in this test section can range from 0 to 175 mph (Mach 0.23). In the past, we varied the air speed by using a combination of the compressor speed and the position of the tunnel flow-control doors. When very slow speeds were required in the 9x15 LSWT, these large tunnel flow control doors might be very nearly full open, bleeding off large quantities of air, even with the drive system operating at its previous minimum speed of about 510 rpm. Power drawn during this mode of operation varied between 15 and 18 MW/hr, but clearly much of this power was not being used to provide air that would be used for testing in the test section. The air exiting these large doors represented wasted power. Early this year, the facility’s tunnel drive system was run on one motor instead of three to see if lower drive speeds could be achieved that would, in turn, result in large power savings because unnecessary air would not be blown out of the flow-control doors unnecessarily. In addition, if the drive could be run slower, then slower speeds would also be possible in the 8x6 SWT test section as an added benefit. Results of the first tests performed early last year showed that in fact the drive, when operating on only one motor, actually reached a steady-state speed of only 337 rpm and drew an amazingly small 6 MW/hr of electrical power. During daytime operation of the drive, this meant that it would be possible to save as much as 10 MW/hr, or nearly $600 per hour of operation, for many of the 9x15 LSWT’s testing regimes. An added benefit of this power-saving venture was that since the 8x6 SWT and 9x15 LSWT are indeed on a common loop, if the compressor is slowed down to benefit the 9x15 LSWT, then the air moving through the 8x6 SWT is also moving slower than ever before. In fact, testing has proven that the 8x6 SWT can now achieve Mach 0.25, whereas its previous lower limit was Mach 0.36. This added benefit has attracted additional customers Author Supersonic Wind Tunnels; Wind Tunnel Tests; Low Speed Wind Tunnels; Motors; Wind Tunnel Drives

20050169934 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, Allison Engine Co., Indianapolis, IN, USA Effect of Shrouded Stator Leakage Flows on Core Compressor Studied [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Efforts to improve core compressor technology have traditionally focused on improving the power stream aerodynamics. During core compressor design and numerical simulation, the effects of leakage flows have been modeled with relatively simple approximations. A combined experimental/numerical research program aimed at studying the effects of the leakage flow under core compressor shrouded stators was therefore undertaken to improve our ability to predict the effects of this leakage flow on power stream aerodynamics. The experimental effort involves detailed measurements in both the seal cavity and power stream in the 4-ft-diameter, four-stage NASA Low-Speed Compressor. The numerical simulation effort involves three-dimensional Navier- simulations of the Low-Speed Compressor (performed in-house at the NASA Lewis

108 Research Center) and simulations of a representative high-speed core exit stage (performed under contract by Allison Engine Company). The Low-Speed Compressor features shrouded stator seal cavities with a single labyrinth seal tooth. Measurements of the power stream aerodynamics have been made for a range of seal tooth clearances. In the initial series of tests, the seal tooth clearances were changed in all four stages. In a second series of tests, the seal clearance was changed in only the third stage. Results from both test series indicate that significant changes in the power stream aerodynamics occur with different seal leakage rates. For example, the change in total pressure loss across the third stator is shown in the figure for a range of seal tooth clearances. The measured results indicate that the power stream aerodynamics are influenced across the lower 40 percent of the blade span by the leakage flow. The measured results will be compared with computational fluid dynamics simulations in which the seal cavity is included in the computational domain. The results will also be used to develop a simple leakage flow model for future computational fluid dynamics simulations so that the actual seal cavity will not have to be included in the computational domain.

A Lockheed-Martin/Boeing aircraft with a Pratt & Whitney F119 engine was selected by the Air Force for the next advanced tactical fighter (ATF). As part of this program, the NASA Lewis Research Center entered into a cooperative test program with Pratt & Whitney along with the Air Force to study the performance for various advanced nozzle concepts for the F119 engine. The area of interest was to measure the internal performance (both thrust and flow coefficients) of nozzle flaps redesigned for low observability with minimal performance loss. The experimental program was successfully completed May 1995 in Lewis’ CE-22 facility. The models were tested over a wide range of geometric variations and nozzle pressure ratios. Results confirmed that the redesigned nozzle flaps had an insignificant effect on the thrust performance and that the resulting flow patterns should not be a problem in the cooling flow design. The results also agreed well with Pratt & Whitney’s computational fluid dynamics analysis. The data obtained from this test were added to the current data base to help validate other performance prediction methodology.

Through these research efforts, we hope to identify ways to improve suction, flow rate, and surface agitation characteristics of nozzles used in vacuum cleaner nozzles.

We also plan to evaluate alternative vacuum cleaner nozzle designs. The overall goal of this project is to quantify both velocity fields and particle trajectories throughout the vacuum cleaner nozzle to optimize its ‘cleanability’--its ability to disturb and remove embedded dirt and other particulates from carpeting or hard surfaces.

20050170433 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Fuzzy Logic Particle Tracking [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy A new all-electronic Particle Image Velocimetry technique that can efficiently map high speed gas flows has been developed in-house at the NASA Lewis Research Center. Particle Image Velocimetry is an optical technique for measuring the instantaneous two component velocity field across a planar region of a seeded flow field. A pulsed laser light sheet is used to illuminate the seed particles entrained in the flow field at two instances in time. One or more charged coupled device (CCD) cameras can be used to record the instantaneous positions of particles. Using the time between light sheet pulses and determining either the individual particle displacements or the average displacement of particles over a small subregion of the recorded image enables the calculation of the fluid velocity. Fuzzy logic minimizes the required operator intervention in identifying particles and computing velocity. Using two cameras that have the same view of the illumination plane yields two single exposure image frames. Two competing techniques that yield unambiguous velocity vector direction information have been widely used for reducing the single-exposure, multiple image frame data: (1) cross-correlation and (2) particle tracking. Correlation techniques yield averaged velocity estimates over subregions of the flow, whereas particle tracking techniques give individual particle velocity estimates. For the correlation technique, the correlation peak corresponding to the average displacement of particles across the subregion must be identified. Noise on the images and particle dropout result in misidentification of the true correlation peak. The subsequent velocity vector maps contain spurious vectors where the displacement peaks have been improperly identified. Typically these spurious vectors are replaced by a weighted average of the neighboring vectors, thereby decreasing the independence of the measurements. In this work, fuzzy logic techniques are used to determine the true correlation displacement peak even when it is not the maximum peak, hence maximizing the information recovery from the correlation operation, maintaining the number of independent measurements, and minimizing the number of spurious velocity vectors. Correlation peaks are correctly identified in both high and low seed density cases. The correlation velocity vector map can then be used as a guide for the particle-tracking operation. Again fuzzy logic techniques are used, this time to identify the correct particle image pairings between exposures to determine particle displacements, and thus the velocity. Combining these two techniques makes use of the higher spatial resolution available from the particle tracking. Particle tracking alone may not be possible in the high seed density images typically required for achieving good results from the correlation technique. This two-staged velocimetric technique can measure particle velocities with high spatial resolution over a broad range of seeding densities.

Since this production phaseout, the national supply of CFC-12 has depended upon the quantity of CFC-12 contained in stockpiles at the beginning of 1996, the quantity of CFC-12 reclaimed from existing air conditioning and refrigeration equipment, and illegal imports of CFC-12. The demand for CFC-12 is determined by the number of operating R-12 air conditioning and refrigeration systems that require refrigerant to replace R-12 lost through leakage and upon servicing (R-12 is the name for CFC-12 when it is used as a refrigerant).

The difference is that a Bunsen burner allows for (partial) premixing of the fuel and the air, whereas a diffusion flame is not premixed and gets its oxygen (principally) by diffusion from the atmosphere around the flame. Simple gas-jet diffusion flames are often used for combustion studies because they embody the mechanisms operating in accidental fires and in practical combustion systems. However, most practical combustion is turbulent (i.e., with random flow vortices), which enhances the fuel/air mixing. These turbulent flames are not well understood because their random and transient nature complicates analysis. Normal gravity studies of turbulence in gas-jet diffusion flames can be impeded by buoyancy-induced instabilities. These gravitycaused instabilities, which are evident in the flickering of a candle flame in normal gravity, interfere with the study of turbulent gas-jet diffusion flames. By conducting experiments in microgravity, where buoyant instabilities are avoided, we at the NASA Lewis Research Center hope to improve our understanding of turbulent combustion. Ultimately, this could lead to improvements in combustor design, yielding higher efficiency and lower pollutant emissions. Gas-jet diffusion flames are often researched as model flames, because they embody mechanisms operating in both accidental fires and practical combustion systems (see the first figure). In normal gravity laboratory research, buoyant air flows, which are often negligible in practical situations, dominate the heat and mass transfer processes. Microgravity research studies, however, are not constrained by buoyant air flows, and new, unique information on the behavior of gas-jet diffusion flames has been obtained.

20050172097 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Mixing and Transition Control Studied Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 1 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: Other Sources; Abstract Only Considerable progress in understanding nonlinear phenomena in both unbounded and wallbounded shear flow transition

111 has been made through the use of a combination of high- Reynolds-number asymptotic and numerical methods. The objective of this continuing work is to fully understand the nonlinear dynamics so that ultimately (1) an effective means of mixing and transition control can be developed and (2) the source terms in the aeroacoustic noise problem can be modeled more accurately. Two important aspects of the work are that (1) the disturbances evolve from strictly linear instability waves on weakly nonparallel mean flows so that the proper upstream conditions are applied in the nonlinear or wave-interaction streamwise region and (2) the asymptotic formulations lead to parabolic problems so that the question of proper out-flow boundary conditions--still a research issue for direct numerical simulations of convectively unstable shear flows--does not arise. Composite expansion techniques are used to obtain solutions that account for both mean-flow-evolution and nonlinear effects. A previously derived theory for the amplitude evolution of a two-dimensional instability wave in an incompressible mixing layer (which is in quantitative agreement with available experimental data for the first nonlinear saturation stage for a plane-jet shear layer, a circular-jet shear layer, and a mixing layer behind a splitter plate) have been extended to include a wave-interaction stage with a three-dimensional subharmonic. The ultimate wave interaction effects can either give rise to explosive growth or an equilibrium solution, both of which are intimately associated with the nonlinear self-interaction of the three dimensional component. The extended theory is being evaluated numerically. In contrast to the mixing-layer situation, earlier comparisons of theoretical predictions based on asymptotic methods and experiments in wall-bounded shear-flow transition have been somewhat lacking in one aspect or another. The current work strongly suggests that the main weakness is the underlying asymptotic representation of the linear ‘part’ of the problem and not the explicit modeling of the nonlinear/wave-interaction effects. Consequently, the long-wave-length/high-Reynolds-number asymptotic limit for the Blasius boundary-layer stability problem was reexamined, and a new dispersion relationship for the instability waves that is uniformly valid for both the upper- and lower branch regions to the required order of approximation was obtained. A comparison with numerical results, obtained by solving the Orr-Sommerfeld stability problem, shows that the asymptotic formula provides surprisingly good results, even for values of the frequency parameter usually encountered in experimental investigations. This is particularly evident in the dynamically important upper-branch region, where much of the nonlinear interactions in transition experiments are believed to take place. The result is important in that it can be used to greatly improve the accuracy of weakly nonlinear critical-layer-based theories, and a consistent nonlinear theory is currently under evaluation.

20050172100 Case Western Reserve Univ., Cleveland, OH, USA Molecular Dynamics Calculations Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The development of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics is very important in the history of physics, and it underlines the difficulty in dealing with systems involving many bodies, even if those bodies are identical. Macroscopic systems of atoms typically contain so many particles that it would be virtually impossible to follow the behavior of all of the particles involved. Therefore, the behavior of a complete system can only be described or predicted in statistical ways. Under a grant to the NASA Lewis Research Center, scientists at the Case Western Reserve University have been examining the use of modern computing techniques that may be able to investigate and find the behavior of complete systems that have a large number of particles by tracking each particle individually. This is the study of molecular dynamics. In contrast to Monte Carlo techniques, which incorporate uncertainty from the outset, molecular dynamics calculations are fully deterministic. Although it is still impossible to track, even on high-speed computers, each particle in a system of a trillion trillion particles, it has been found that such systems can be well simulated by calculating the trajectories of a few thousand particles. Modern computers and efficient computing strategies have been used to calculate the behavior of a few physical systems and are now being employed to study important problems such as supersonic flows in the laboratory and in space. In particular, an animated video (available in mpeg format--4.4 MB) was produced by Dr. M.J. Woo, now a National Research Council fellow at Lewis, and the G-VIS laboratory at Lewis. This video shows the behavior of supersonic shocks produced by pistons in enclosed cylinders by following exactly the behavior of thousands of particles. The major assumptions made were that the particles involved were hard spheres and that all collisions with the walls and with other particles were fully elastic. The animated video was voted one of two winning videos in a competition held at the meeting of the American Physical Society’s Division of Fluid Dynamics, held in Atlanta, Georgia, in November 1994. Of great interest was the result that in every shock there were a few high-speed precursor particles racing ahead of the shock, carrying information about its impending arrival. Most recently, Dr. Woo has been applying molecular dynamics techniques to the problem of determining the drag produced by the space station truss structure as it flies through the thin residual atmosphere of low-Earth orbit. This problem is made difficult by the complex structure of the truss and by the extreme supersonic nature of the flow. A fully filled section of the truss has already been examined, and drag predictions have been made. Molecular dynamics techniques promise to make realistic drag calculations

20050173087 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Interface Configuration Experiments (ICE) Explore the Effects of Microgravity on Fluids Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The Interface Configuration Experiment (ICE) is actually a series of experiments that explore the striking behavior of liquid-vapor interfaces (i.e., fluid surfaces) in a low gravity environment under which major shifts in liquid position can arise from small changes in container shape or contact angle. Although these experiments are designed to test current mathematical theory, there are numerous practical applications that could result from these studies. When designing fluid management systems for space-based operations, it is important to be able to predict the locations and configurations that fluids will assume in containers under low-gravity conditions. The increased ability to predict, and hence control, fluid interfaces is vital to systems and/or processes where capillary forces play a significant role both in space and on the Earth. Some of these applications are in general coating processes (paints, pesticides, printing, etc.), fluid transport in porous media (ground water flows, oil recovery, etc.), liquid propellant systems in space (liquid fuel and oxygen), capillary-pumped loops and heat pipes, and space-based life-support systems. In space, almost every fluid system is affected, if not dominated, by capillarity. Knowledge of the liquid-vapor interface behavior, and in particular the interface shape from which any analysis must begin, is required as a foundation to predict how these fluids will react in microgravity and on Earth. With such knowledge, system designs can be optimized, thereby decreasing costs and complexity, while increasing performance and reliability. ICE has increased, and will continue to increase this knowledge, as it probes the specific peculiarities of current theory upon which our current understanding of these effects is based. Several versions of ICE were conducted in NASA Lewis Research Center’s drop towers and on the space shuttle during the first and second USA Microgravity Laboratory missions (USML-1 and USML-2). Additional tests are planned for the space shuttle and for the Russian Mir space station. These studies will focus on interfacial problems concerning surface existence, uniqueness, configuration, stability, and flow characteristics.

Effective launch and recovery systems (LARS) are necessary for unmanned vehicles to efficiently conduct operations at sea. The Towed Body system is a LARS with a wide range of applications for unmanned vehicle operations. The Towed Body can be evaluated as a small vessel with horizontal and vertical control surfaces. Since it is being towed, the directional stability of the Towed Body requires unique consideration due to the presence of the towing force. This thesis examines the effect of varying the longitudinal location of the vertical control surfaces, as well as the effective aspect ratio, size, and number of vertical control surfaces. The results identify critical stability values for the various fin configurations. DTIC Boats; Ships; Stability Tests; Surface Vehicles; Towed Bodies

20050173290 Air Force Research Lab., Edwards AFB, CA USA Mixing Dynamics of Supercritical Droplets and Jets Talley, Douglas G.; Cohn, R. K.; Coy, E. B.; Chehroudi, B.; Davis, D. W.; Apr. 2005; 11 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): Proj-2308 Report No.(s): AD-A432567; AFRL-PR-ED-TR-2005-0023; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This report summarizes a research program to understand the mixing dynamics of supercritical droplets and jets. The research was motivated by the recognition that pressures in modern liquid rocket engine combustion chambers tend to be higher than the critical pressure of one or more of the propellants. Prior to the beginning of this research, combustion processes were largely modeled using low pressure, subcritical spray combustion concepts. At supercritical pressures, however, a distinct difference between ‘gaseous’ and ‘liquid’ phases no longer exists, surface tension and the enthalpy of vaporization vanish, and ‘gas’ phase density can approach that of the ‘liquid’ with correspondingly significantly enhanced aerodynamic forces relative to the ‘liquid.’ These and other effects are discussed in detail in the references contained in the report. Under such conditions, questions such as whether droplets can even exist or what ‘spray combustion’ would look like lacked even qualitative answers at the beginning. As a result of the research conducted under this program, most of the qualitative questions have now been answered, and significant progress has been made in determining quantitative mechanisms.

20050173292 Academy of Sciences (USSR), Saint Petersburg, USSR MHD Control of the Separation Phenomenon in a Supersonic Xenon Plasma Flow Bobashev, S. V.; Mende, N. P.; Sakharov, V. A.; Van Wie, D. M.; Oct. 2003; 25 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432569; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The flow separation phenomenon is encountered practically in all areas of technology related to liquid or gas flows. Generally, the separation leads to harmful consequences such as an increase of the body drag, a decrease of the wing lift, unsteady loads, and at high supersonic velocities causes emergence of narrow zones with intense heat fluxes toward the vehicle surface. The flow separation at supersonic velocities is associated with the interaction between shock waves and boundary layers. Shock-wave/boundary- layer interaction (SWBLI) has been a subject of many investigations over the past four decades aimed eventually at designing supersonic and hypersonic air intakes 1. There are some convenient physical models allowing the researcher to study SWBLI experimentally under simple conditions by means of a relatively simple visualization technique. One of such models is a supersonic flow inside an inner dihedral angle (compression corner). SWBLI may cause the flow separation in the vicinity of a compression corner. Improvement of understanding of the mechanism of the control of that interaction and prevention of the separation can pave the way for solving the problem of designing an air intake for operation over a wide range of the flight velocities. According to the AJAX concept 2, a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) approach to controlling a supersonic flow of an ionized gas seems very attractive and advantageous.

20050173442 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Interdicting a Force Deployment: Two-Sided Optimization of Asset Selection, Lift Scheduling, and Multi-Commodity Load Planning Koprowski, Peter M.; Mar. 2005; 76 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432887; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) A military deployment is visible and vulnerable. But, deployments are currently planned assuming they can be completed with surprise, or defended from any threat. JFAST, the current deployment planning and visualization tool of choice, uses heuristics of unknown reliability that yield deployment plans of unknown quality, and ignores vulnerability. We introduce LIFTER, an integer-linear program (ILP) that optimizes a time-phased force deployment (TPFDD) by day, by asset cycle, and by TPFDD line (individual shipment from an origin to a destination), and ATTACKER, also an ILP, representing a smart enemy’s resource-limited interdictions to maximally disrupt LIFTER’s subsequently re-optimized TPFDD plan. LIFTER activates transport assets from an allocation list, and yields a complete logistic plan that minimizes disruption represented by penalties for early, tardy, late, or dropped shipments, and for under-utilization of asset capacity. We use LIFTER to qualitatively assess JFAST heuristic plans. We also link both ILPs in a decomposition-based search for the best deployment plan around the worst-case interdiction, given that the actions of deployer and interdictor are transparent to both parties. We explain how JFAST could be embellished with its own version of ATTACKER. A key discovery here is a gauge of the value of intelligence, deception, and secrecy.

The Dewan parameterization was developed to convert standard radiosonde data into vertical profiles of Cr2, the refractive index structure constant, which is the critical parameter for describing optical turbulence. The Dewan parameterization provides useful vertical profiles of Cr2 in the upper troposphere and stratosphere, though there is certainly a need for improvement at these altitudes. The statistical relationships relating Dewan’s Y parameter to wind shear, which form the basis of the Dewan parameterization, are often not found in atmospheric measurement data, thus this is an area to explore in developing improved optical turbulence parameterization for the troposphere and stratosphere. Several modified-Dewan optical turbulence parameterization are developed and tested for the lower troposphere, the troposphere, the stratosphere and the combined tropospherelstratosphere.

The foundation of the approach is a new manufacturing process called MicroFluidic Tectonics that combines responsive hydrogel materials with novel liquid phase Microfluidic construction methods. The approach addresses several critical issues relevant to BC agent defense - simple device fabrication, just-in-time manufacturing, integration of all system functions through ‘in situ’ fabrication, simple operation, self-regulation of on chip flow, no electrical power, rapid and highly adaptable to changing needs. MicroFluidic Tectonics (microFT) processes capable of manufacturing elegant (operationally simple, but functionally complex) microfluidic systems in the field were developed. In addition, methods for the creation of novel BC sensing systems that directly couple micro scale detection to macro scale alerts were shown. The systems are capable of performing sample preparation steps and can detect host defense toxins. In addition, advanced concepts in truly three dimensional functional polymer structures and heterogeneous materials integration were demonstrated. Modeling and material characterization capabilities to not only understand hydrogels better but also to enable design of innovative applications based on hydrogels were also established. A representative assay was used to develop and test the systems including botulinum toxin detection. The MicroFluidic Tectonics platform has broad potential applications across all layers of BC detection, analysis and response as well as many non BC warfare applications such as environmental toxicology, clinical detection and diagnosis, chemical synthesis, etc. DTIC Biochemistry; Detection; Fluidics

In order to map the features we used the data of ESA s Mars Express High Resolution Stereo Camera (HRSC) [1]. As HRSC is a stereo camera the three-dimensional structure of small inner valley features can be resolved providing quantitative information on transport rates and mass balances. Although the age differences between the valley floors and the surroundings are large and therefore stand for low average erosion rates, the estimated discharges indicate higher erosion activities and therefore shorter periods for the valley formation, which may be caused by episodic flooding events.

Electronic excitations, or quasiparticles, are created when a superconductor absorbs an x-ray and are detected as an excess tunnel current through the junction. The number of quasiparticles created and the magnitude of the excess current is proportional to the energy of the absorbed x-ray. This is similar to existing semiconductor-based spectrometers that measure electron-hole pairs, but with 1000 times more excitations. The energy measurement therefore can be up to 30 times more precise with a superconducting detector than with a semiconductor detector. This work describes the development and testing of an STJ spectrometer design for x-ray fluorescence applications. First, the basic principles of the STJ spectrometer are explained. This is followed by detailed simulations of the variance in the number of quasiparticles produced by absorption of an x-ray. This variance is inherent in the detector and establishes an upper limit on the resolving power of the spectrometer. These simulations include effects due to the materials used in the spectrometer and to the multilayer structure of the device. Next, the spectrometer is characterized as functions of operating temperature, incident x-ray energy, and count rate. Many of these tests were performed with the spectrometer attached to a synchrotron radiation port. Finally, example x-ray fluorescence spectra of materials exposed to synchrotron radiation are presented. These

117 materials are of interest to semiconductor processing and structural biology, two fields that will benefit immediately from the improved resolving power of the STJ spectrometer.

The field of view of 5.7 degree square is covered by a CCD chip consisting of 1024x1024 pixels with the 12 bit dynamic range. AMICA has a filter set similar, but not identical to the Eight Color Asteroids Survey (ECAS), which is the standard system for the ground-based asteroid taxonomy. In addition, four polarizers are attached on the surface of the CCD. While the imaging performance is a critical factor to investigate the surface topography, contaminants may blur the images as MSI on Near/Shoemaker. The ground-based measurements of a integrating sphere provided us with the radiometric calibration coefficients, which convert the output DN of AMICA to the input radiance. The preflight radiometric calibration, however, were conducted under the much higher temperature compared with the inflight operational environments. With the absolute radiometric calibration, we can estimate the Hapke parameters of Itokawa, which could be associated with the regolith properties. In addition, the local variations of the color and iron absorptions can be directly compared with the previous studies on Eros. In this article, we present some preliminary results

Understanding the OE is a requirement for fitting photometric models which produce meaningful results about regolith texture. Previously we have reported measurements from the JPL long arm goniometer and we have shown that this instrument enables us to distinguish between two distinct processes which create the opposition surges, Shadow Hiding (SHOE) and Coherent Backscattering (CBOE). SHOE arises because, as phase angle approaches zero, shadows cast by regolith grains on other grains become invisible to the observer. CBOE results from constructive interference between rays traveling the same path but in opposite directions. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

20050173197 Naval Research Lab., Washington, DC USA Airborne UXO Surveys Using the MTADS Nelson, H. H.; McDonald, J. R.; Wright, David; Apr. 2005; 140 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432363; NRL/MR/6110--05-8874; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) An airborne version of the MTADS vehicular towed array has been developed and demonstrated with the support of ESTCP Project 200031. The system is ideally suited to localizing burial caches of ordnance and establishing areas that are uncontaminated but also retains the capability of detecting, locating, and identifying individual ordnance items the size of 2.75-in. rocket warheads and larger. The system deploys a linear array of 7 Cs-vapor magnetometers spaced at 1.5-m intervals in a forward-mounted boom on a Bell Long Ranger helicopter. Two GPS units mounted on the forward boom provide positioning and roll and yaw measurements. An inertial measurement unit and a 3-axis fluxgate gradiometer redundantly provide additional attitude measurements. Laser, radar, and acoustic altimeters provide altitude information. A pilot guidance display provides survey progress and platform information in real time. All sensor data are recorded in a data acquisition computer mounted in one of the helicopter rear seats. This report documents the performance of the Airborne MTADS at three ranges containing both live ordnance and inert, seeded ordnance.

During May 2002, we conducted simultaneous ship and aircraft surveys in a dynamic environment in the northern Gulf of Mexico (coastal waters near Mobile Bay, Alabama). Optical measurements included hyperspectral remote sensing reflectance, partitioned absorption coefficients (phytoplankton, detrital, and colored dissolved organic matter components), beam attenuation (c), backscattering coefficient, HPLC phytoplankton pigment concentrations, and organic/inorganic particle loads. Our objectives arc to: (I) develop new algorithms to estimate optical properties from hyperspectral ocean color imagery; (2) apply to high-resolution aircraft imagery to characterize the spatial optical variability in an environment impacted by high concentrations of dissolved and particulate materials; and (3) perform an optical water mass classification on the aircraft imagery. The new optical classification system

119 based on the partitioned absorption coefficients is used to distinguish water masses and track coastal features. DTIC Algorithms; High Resolution; Imagery; Near Infrared Radiation; Optical Properties; Slopes

The variety of animals that use haircell, a simple mechanical transducer, for critical tasks is astonishing. This projected aimed to: (1) Learn from the biological systems about haircell sensor design, materials, and performance, and the way multiple sensors are organized; (2) Develop artificial haircell sensors that are inspired by design, materials, and dimensions of biological counterparts using advanced microfabrication strategies; (3) Characterize the performance of artificial haircell sensors and validate the performance of individual sensors and groups of them for flow sensing applications. Apart from the objectives of gaining better performance in terms of combined sensitivity and robustness, the use of bioinspired haircell sensors have other benefits that are important for the military. Sensors are very important for military platforms such as remote wireless sensors and various mobile platforms. However, the cost of developing custom sensors is very high due to the high cost (millions of dollars) and long duration (several years) of sensor development. It is anticipate that the modualar sensor concept will significantly reduce the time it takes to develop a certain sensor and to enable low cost development efforts in the future.

20050173249 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Evolution of Boundary Layer Height in Response to Surface and Mesoscale Forcing Moore, Matthew J.; Mar. 2005; 75 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432473; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This thesis study focuses on understanding the dissipation processes of the stratocumulus deck after sunrise. This objective is met through careful analyses of observational data as well as model simulations. Measurements from the Marine Atmosphere Measurement Lab (MAML) of the Naval Postgraduate School (NPS) are used in this study. In particular, the half-hourly wind profiler/Radio Acoustic Sounding System (RASS) measurements were used to determine the boundary layer top and the evolution of the boundary layer mean thermodynamic properties during the cloud breakup period. Measurements from a laser ceilometer and the routine surface measurements are also used to detect the variation of cloud base height, the evolution of the cloud deck, and the onset of sea breeze. These measurements revealed the increase of the boundary layer depth after sunrise followed by a decrease of the boundary layer depth after the onset of the sea breeze, which points to the role of surface heating and sea breeze development in modulating cloud evolution. The effects of surface heating and sea breeze are further tested using a 1-dimensional mixed layer model modified for coastal land surfaces.

M.; Bock, Robert D.; Campbell, Ricardo; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432578; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Georgia Tech is in the second year of a Multi-University Research Initiative designed to study the impact of environmental processes on optical signatures. In particular, this program is conducting phenomenological studies on hyperspectral and polarimetric signatures of various target classes in the visible and infrared wavebands. Initial research studies have focused on landmines and the impact of various environmental factors and processes (e.g., subsurface processes) on the resultant spectral infrared signatures. A variety of approaches have been employed in this research to gain a better understanding of the impact of the environment on the spectral and polarimetric characteristics of soil and landmine signatures. These approaches include theoretical analyses, physics-based signature modeling, field measurements, and laboratory studies. We will present results from our research into the use of a physics-based, hyperspectral signature model

120 as an analysis tool for landmine-related phenomenology studies. Results from these studies will be presented that underscore the importance of incorporating the subsurface processes into the signature analyses and the impact of these processes on detection algorithm development. The results of these analyses have been propagated to algorithm developers to permit the creation of more robust processing techniques based on these physical analyses and models.

20050173305 Michigan Univ., Ann Arbor, MI USA Multiple Model Particle Filtering For Multi-Target Tracking Hero, Alfred; Kreucher, Chris; Kastella, Keith; Dec. 2004; 33 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432588; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This paper addresses the problem of tracking multiple moving targets by recursively estimating the joint multitarget probability density (JMPD). Estimation of the JMPD is done in a Bayesian framework and provides a method for tracking multiple targets which allow nonlinear target motion and measurement to state coupling as well as non-Gaussian target-state densities. We utilize an implementation of the JMPD method based on particle filtering (PF) techniques. The details of this method have been presented elsewhere 1. One feature of real targets is that they are poorly described by a single kinematic model Target behavior may change dramatically i.e. targets may stop moving or begin rapid acceleration. To address this fact we evaluate the use of the adaptive target tracking strategy known as the interacting multiple model (IMM) algorithm. The IMM uses multiple models for target behavior and adaptively determines which model(s) are the most appropriate at each time step based on sensor measurements. We demonstrate the applicability of the IMM to a PF-based multitarget tracker in two settings. First we consider the traditional application of tracking targets that switch between kinematic modes. The target motion used is field data recorded during a military battle simulation and includes multiple modes of target behavior. Our investigation is distinguished from prior efforts in that it is concerned with multiple targets and real target motion data and utilizes a PF implementation. Second we present a nontraditional reinterpretation of the multiple model filter as multiple models on the state of the filter rather than on the state of the target. We find that this strategy is able to automatically detect model violations and compensate by altering the filter model which results in improved target tracking.

20050173308 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Lexington, MA USA Adaptive Beamforming for SAR Ambiguity Rejection Benitz, Gerald; Dec. 2004; 25 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432610; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The Lincoln SPARTA program is developing next-generation phased arrays for enhanced radar performance and efficiency. One novel capability being explored is simultaneous operation of MTI (moving target indicator) and SAR (synthetic aperture radar) imaging two functions that are usually mutually exclusive. MTI scans large areas quickly using short integration (^10 msec) and low bandwidth (^10 MHz). SAR in contrast stares for seconds at each location and has high bandwidth (^600 MHz). Simultaneous operation requires multiple beams, frequency-division multiplexing, and synchronized pulsing. Also, MTI requires a higher PRF (pulse-repetition frequency) than SAR, and multiple PRFs for ambiguity resolution. Hence, it is desirable for SAR to function with MTI pulse scheduling. This presentation explores the use of adaptive beamforming to extend SAR performance to unfavorable PRFs. A low PRF implies that Doppler-ambiguous clutter is near the main lobe, while a high PRF implies that range-ambiguous clutter is near the main lobe. An image-domain, minimum-variance beamformer is presented which attenuates ambiguous clutter, adapting the beam uniquely at each location (pixel) in the image. A simulated SAR collection at high PRF using a 3-beam combiner demonstrates a practical, limited degree-of-freedom implementation.

121 The conventional approach to GMTI uses narrowband signals and a short coherent processing interval (CPI). In this talk, we examine some of the fundamental theoretical issues involved in GMTI with wideband signals and long CPIs (WL-GMTI). The possibility of wideband long CPI GMTI has received some attention in recent years and there are a number of potential benefits: 1) Improved minimum detectable velocity (MDV). 2) Detection of targets with zero radial velocity (but non-zero tangential velocity. 3) Better fit with dual-use SAR/GMTI architectures. 4) Less demanding array requirements (shorter and/or sparser arrays). 5) Greater robustness to clutter internal motion. The most convenient framework for WL-GMTI is a post-SAR architecture where each spatial channel is pre-processed with synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image processing. The post-SAR architecture is the natural generalization of post-Doppler STAP to the wideband long-CPI case. Exact steering vectors in the post-SAR framework are computed analytically for constant-velocity targets assuming a calibrated array. The steering vectors can be used with algorithms such as the GLRT or AMF to perform adaptive detection on the post-SAR data. We also derive a simple exact expression for SINR loss when the covariance is known exactly. The loss is a two-dimensional function of both target velocity components indicating the capability to detect both radial and non-radial target motion. The final section of this talk examines WL-GMTI performance bounds based on optimal Bayesian detection. In particular we study how detection performance varies as a function of the number of pixels that the moving target ‘smears’ over in the SAR image. There is a surprising improvement in detection performance when the clutter has strong non-Gaussian tails. In at least some cases, it appears that much of the performance can be achieved with a simple sub-optimal detector. DTIC Broadband; Moving Target Indicators; Synthetic Aperture Radar

20050173320 QinetiQ Ltd., London, UK A Novel Technique for Broadband Singular Value Decomposition McWhirter, John; Baxter, Paul D.; Dec. 2004; 22 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432624; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The singular value decomposition (SVD) is a very important tool for narrowband adaptive sensor array processing. The SVD decorrelates the signals received from an array of sensors by applying a unitary matrix of complex scalars which serve to modify the signals in phase and amplitude. Because the transformation is unitary the associated singular values represent the true energy associated with each of the decorrelated components so the signal and noise subspaces may sometimes be separated. In broadband applications or a situation in which narrowband signals have been convolutively mixed the received signals cannot be represented in terms of phase and amplitude. Instantaneous decorrelation using a unitary matrix is no longer sufficient to separate them. It is necessary to impose decorrelation not just at the same time instant for all signals but over a suitably chosen range of relative time delays. This is referred to as strong decorrelation. Implementing strong decorrelation involves the application of a matrix of suitably chosen FIR filters and if each filter is represented in terms of its z-transform this takes the form of a polynomial matrix. We generalize the SVD to broadband adaptive sensor arrays by requiring the strong decorrelation to be implemented using a paraunitary polynomial matrix A paraunitary polynomial matrix has several important (closely related) properties. 1. It represents a multi-channel all-pass filter. 2. It preserves the total signal energy. 3. It preserves the total energy at every frequency. In this paper we describe a novel technique for computing the required paraunitary matrix and show how the resulting broadband SVD algorithm can be applied in practice e.g. to identify broadband signal and noise subspaces or to separate a multi-channel broadband adaptive filtering problem into a set of independent single-channel problems.

20050173321 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Lexington, MA USA Threshold Region Performance Prediction for Adaptive Matched Field Processing Localization Lee, Nigel; Richmond, Christ D.; Mar. 2004; 11 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432626; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Matched field processing (MFP) provides a means of attaining the full gains available from the shallow-water acoustic channel in passive sonar signal processing. By modeling the full field structure of acoustic signals propagating in the ocean MFP offers the potential for both detection gain (through its better signal model) and localization gain (through its additional discrimination capability in range and depth) over traditional planewave processing. However, high spatial ambiguities and mismatch present formidable challenges in practice limiting the performance gains that are realistically achievable with MFP. Prediction of MFP localization performance is a challenging problem. MFP replica (steering) vectors can be highly ambiguous in range and depth resulting in significant non-local estimation errors at low signal-to-noise ratios (SNRs)-errors not modeled by traditional localization measures such as the Cramer-Rao bound. Recent work has demonstrated the accuracy of an

122 interval-error-based method referred to herein as the ‘method of interval errors’ (), in predicting mean- squared error localization performance well into the threshold region where non-local errors may dominate. This work uses the MIE to predict the mean-squared error accuracy of MFP range and depth estimates for two well-known approaches: (i) conventional beamforming (equivalent to maximum likelihood estimation for white noise) and (ii) Capon-MVDR adaptive beamforming. Simulation results will characterize localization performance as a function of SNR, for apertures and environments of interest. Particular attention will be given to the ‘threshold SNR’ (below which localization performance degrades rapidly due to global estimation errors) and to the minimum SNR required to achieve acceptable range/depth localization. Initial work will also be presented assessing the MIE’s potential to characterize localization performance in the presence of mismatch.

20050173328 Army Research Lab., Adelphi, MD USA Minimizing 1/f Noise in Magnetic Sensors with a MEMS Flux Concentrator Edelstein, A. S.; Fischer, Greg; Pulskamp, Jeff; Pedersen, Michael; Bernard, William; Cheng, Shu F.; Dec. 2004; 7 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432634; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) New approaches offer the promise of providing energy efficient, low cost, small, and highly sensitive magnetic sensors. However, the 1/f noise of these new types of sensors is a major obstacle. Many army applications, such as detecting moving targets, require sensitivity at low frequencies. This paper reports development of a device, the MEMS flux concentrator, invented at ARL, that minimizes the effect of 1/f noise in sensors. The device accomplishes this by shifting the operating frequency to higher frequencies where 1/f noise is much lower. This shift is accomplished by modulating the magnetic field before it reaches the sensor. In our device, the magnetic sensor, a GMR sensor, is placed between flux concentrators that have been deposited on MEMS flaps. The motion of the MEMS flaps modulates the field by a factor of 3 at frequencies from 8 to 15 kHz. The MEMS flux concentrator should increase the sensitivity of many magnetic sensors by two to three orders of magnitude. An equally important benefit is that, because it is a modulation technique, it eliminates the problem of dealing with the large DC bias of most magnetoresistive sensors.

Wire entanglements constitute a major obstacle to the mobility of Unmanned Ground Vehicle because of their widespread use and the difficulty to detect them. We pose the problem in term of finding thin structures organized in complex patterns. Such problem did not received as much attention as linear and planar structures segmentation. We are interested especially in the problems posed by repetitive and symmetric structures acquired with a laser range finder. The method relies on 3-D data projections along specific directions and 2-D histograms comparison. The sensitivity of the classification algorithm to the parameter settings is evaluated and a segmentation method proposed.

At Ka-Band and above, accurate representation of the target surfaces becomes a limiting factor in the electromagnetic simulation, since the resolution requirements are on the same order as fabrication tolerances. Even if accurate representation of test vehicles can be obtained, there may still be discrepancies in the modeled surface condition (i.e., surface texture and coatings) that could become important at high frequency. We measure waviness and roughness of various plates to know the parameter range for smooth aluminum and rolled homogenous armor (RHA). We also modify the plates by grit blasting to determine how parameters might change during surface preparation for painting. Using these roughness parameters and typical electrical characteristics for paint, we can estimate the effect of surface condition on RCS predictions at Ka-Band. For the painting process and surface roughness typical of ground vehicles, theory predicts only a small difference compared to smooth metal targets.

Two versions of ACDC (ACDC ‘Lite’ and ‘Medium’) were tested to

124 determine how well the system could aid analysts in detecting changes between newly collected sidescan sonar imagery and historical imagery. ACDC Lite enabled analysts to perform change detection significantly faster than manual methods (3.36 min. vs 2 hr) with identical results. ACDC medium improved analysts’ performance by matching one additional contact during change detection, in as little as 12.6 minutes. Follow-on work is suggested for further improving ACDC performance in support of mine countermeasures.

While airborne moving target indication and fire control radars have been around for a long period of time, it has been only the last decade when Ground Moving Target Indication (GMTI) data has been collected and used to prosecute mobile surface targets. This presentation addresses the use of GMTI data from providing intelligence information to the analysis and leads to the challenges associated with doing long-term track maintenance. The intelligence community has been expressing interest in GMTI data since 1999 when investments were made to develop the first exploitation capability that focused on products from Joint STARS GMTI data providing a web based capability to process and exploit Joint STARS data via a Network Centric Architecture. At the same time, DARPA and AFRL were pursuing the Long Term Track Maintenance challenge performing multi-platform command and control, horizontally fusing multiple sensors with weapons for a long-range precision fire control system. The focus of this presentation is to cover performance metrics. The metrics will be associated with operators-in-the- loop evaluations looking at intelligence and analysis for the find, fix, track, and assess portion of the weapon. The second set of metrics focus on long- term track maintenance evaluations. Track accuracy and persistence in time critical targeting, which address the track, target, and engage portion of the weapon chain.

E.; Dec. 2004; 17 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432965; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Homeland Security and the Veterinary Services Activity, Office Of The Surgeon General (VSA, OTSG) have identified food as potential instruments for covert acts of bioterrorism involving Chem/Bio agents. Therefore, VSA, OTSG has established the need to develop technologies that can be used in the presumptive screening of food to minimize the health effects on the warfighter. Currently, there are no deployable biological detection capabilities that are truly rapid when sample preparation is included in the detection process. The complexity of food matrices makes its very difficult to analyze directly by modern day PCR and immunoassays systems, no matter how sensitive, without first diluting and removing interfering substances inherent to the food products. The result is that the concentration of the biological agent introduced into the analyzer may be so dilute that the instrument cannot detect it even though its presences is at concentrations that can cause human illness or death. This is why the testing of bacterial agents from food usually requires a 24-hour enrichment step, which defeats the purpose of rapid detection built into these new biosensor type technologies. Also, biological toxins, as opposed to live agents, cannot be replicated by enrichment. Dilution of toxins from a food matrix may produce a false negative test delaying the actual identification of the toxin until after the effects have already occurred.

This study analyses the BRDF (Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function) impact and effectiveness of texture analysis on terrain classification within Fresno County area in state of California. QuickBird panchromatic (0.61 meter) and multispectral (2.44 meter) imagery collected in July 2003 are examined to determine the impact of adding multi-angles and filtered texture information to the standard MSI classification approaches. Four images were collected, with view angles from -64 to +64 , including a nadir view. Texture filter function and maximum likelihood classifier are used in this study. Both texture analysis and the results of classifications using multi-angle (BRDF) information are promising. Fine discrimination of similar soil classes was produced by the BRDF variations in the high-spatial resolution panchromatic image. Texture analysis results depended on the directionality of the gray level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) calculation. Combining the different modalities of analysis did not improve the overall classification, perhaps illustrating the consequences of the Hughes paradox (Hughes, 1968).

The other approach requires use of three physically distinct cameras with the same type of polarization filters mounted on three low-cost off-the-shelf cameras each with similar optics, running with certain geometric approximations due to the flat-earth assumption. There are pros and cons for each approach. Results for an actual deployment are presented.

126 Previous to 9-11, it was assumed that a combination of small-scale bench testing plus dimensional analysis would be sufficient to model fate and transport of chemical and biological (CB) contaminants in water systems. Water security is a life safety issue. Water supply systems on military installations and forward facilities are vulnerable to both conventional, industrial and military CB agent contamination by terrorists. The pre 9-11 generation of sensors could not directly detect many common CB agents, and the few sensors that could were very expensive. The pre 9-11 generation of water distribution simulations cannot correctly model CB agent uptake on the pipe walls of a distribution system. Therefore the outcome of an attack via CB agents in the water supply is not well understood. In the post 9-11 environment, the EPA, ECBC, and ERDC stakeholders concluded that the pre-existing fate and transport models should be updated to include results from meso-scale testing. The Water Security Research Test Loop (WSRTL) is designed to help update these models with meso-scale testing of fate and transport of CB agents. The WSRTL would also serve as a test-bed to facilitate new generations of sensor technology and water treatment technology.

J.; Jan. 2004; 74 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834031; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge The Linac Coherent Light Source (LCLS) undulator line will consist of 33 undulator segments separated by breaks of two different lengths. The undulator segments are 3.4-m-long permanent-magnet planar hybrid devices with a period length of 30 mm and a magnetic gap of approximately 6 mm. Focusing quadrupoles, in a FODO lattice, and electron-beam diagnostics will be located in the breaks between undulator segments. Every third break will be longer in order to also accommodate x-ray diagnostics. Thus, taking the alternating focusing and defocusing quadrupoles into account, the ‘super-period’ length before the undulator line repeats itself is six undulator segments. For additional details on the LCLS project and the undulator line, please refer to the conceptual design report (CDR). A full-length prototype undulator segment has been designed, manufactured and tested, and this document provides a comprehensive report of our experience with the prototype.

To achieve this, an intracavity Pound-Drever-Hall technique was used on a 10 GHz harmonically mode-locked semiconductor ring laser and obtained a simultaneous optical frequency comb stabilization within 3 MHz range and supermode phase noise suppression. Together with an additional phase-lock-loop, the timing jitter integrated from 10 Hz to 10 MHz (5 GHz) was 63.5 fs (161 fs). Approximately 25 fsec of the integrated noise is attributed to line noise, resulting in a net jitter of 38 fsec. This work represents, to our knowledge, the first stabilized modelocked diode laser using PDH that achieves both supermode elimination and optical frequency comb stabilization. The

127 resulting optical comb source may be useful for advanced RF imaging radar for optical sampling in ADC or in novel waveform generation (DAC’s). DTIC Frequencies; Laser Mode Locking; Semiconductor Diodes; Semiconductor Lasers; Vibration; Waveforms

The work presented concerns a bodyworn, cross-band UHF transponder used for physiological signaling within single-room environments. A modified image-based ray-tracing algorithm is used to calculate fading characteristics for a link under the worst case condition, when the direct path between the source and chest-mounted receiver is obstructed by the body itself. The approach adopted utilizes a FDTD-generated radiation pattern of a realistic adult-male body model, incorporating the directional gains into the three-dimensional indoor ray-tracing algorithm. A brief description of the biomedical transponder is followed by details of the computational technique; path loss and small area fading results are then presented for a 76 square meter area representing a hospital ward. The cumulative distribution function (CDF) results were found to be characteristically bi-modal and this novel feature is investigated in more detail.

20050170415 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, United Technologies Research Center, USA High-Temperature, Thin-Film Strain Gages Improved [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Conventional resistance strain gage technology uses ‘bonded’ strain gages. These foil or wire gages are bonded onto the surface of the test article with glue, ceramic cements, or flame-sprayed ceramics. These bonding agents can, in some instances, limit both the degree of strain transmission from the test structure to the gage and the maximum working temperature of the gage. Also, the bulky, bonded gage normally disrupts aerodynamic gas flow on the surface of the test structure because of its intrusive character. To respond to the urgent needs in aeronautic and aerospace research where stress and temperature gradients are high, aerodynamic effects need to be minimized, and higher operational temperatures are required, the NASA Lewis Research Center developed a thin film strain gage. This gage, a vacuum-deposited thin film formed directly on the surface of a test structure, operates at much higher temperatures than commercially available gages do and with minimal disruption of the aerodynamic flow. The gage uses an alloy, palladium-13 wt % chromium (hereafter, PdCr), which was developed by United Technologies Research Center under a NASA contract. PdCr is structurally stable and oxidation resistant up to at least 1100 C (2000 F); its temperature-induced resistance change is linear, repeatable, and not sensitive to the rates of heating and cooling. An early strain gage, which was made of 25-micrometer-diameter PdCr wire and demonstrated to be useable to 800 C, won an R&D 100 award in 1991. By further improving the purity of the material and by developing gage fabrication techniques that use sputter-deposition, photolithography patterning, and chemical etching, we have made an 8- to 10-m PdCr thin-film strain gage that can measure dynamic and static strain to at least 1100 C. For static strain measurements, a 5-m-thick Pt element serves as a temperature compensator to further minimize the temperature effect of the gage. These thin-film gages provide the advantage of minimally intrusive surface strain measurements and give highly repeatable readings with low drift at temperatures from ambient to 1100 C. This is a 300 C advance in operating temperature over the PdCr wire gage and a 500 C advance over commercially available gages made of other materials.

20050170453 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Gear Crack Propagation Investigation 1995; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Reduced weight is a major design goal in aircraft power transmissions. Some gear designs incorporate thin rims to help meet this goal. Thin rims, however, may lead to bending fatigue cracks. These cracks may propagate through a gear tooth or into the gear rim. A crack that propagates through a tooth would probably not be catastrophic, and ample warning of a failure could be possible. On the other hand, a crack that propagates through the rim would be catastrophic. Such cracks could lead to disengagement of a rotor or propeller from an engine, loss of an aircraft, and fatalities. To help create and validate tools for the gear designer, the NASA Lewis Research Center performed in-house analytical and experimental studies to investigate the effect of rim thickness on gear-tooth crack propagation. Our goal was to determine whether cracks grew through gear teeth (benign failure mode) or through gear rims (catastrophic failure mode) for various rim thicknesses. In addition, we investigated the effect of rim thickness on crack propagation life. A finite-element-based computer program simulated gear-tooth crack propagation. The analysis used principles of linear elastic fracture mechanics, and quarter-point, triangular elements were used at the crack tip to represent the stress singularity. The program had an automated crack propagation option in which cracks were grown numerically via an automated remeshing scheme. Crack-tip stress-intensity factors were estimated to determine crack-propagation direction. Also, various fatigue crack growth models were used to estimate crack-propagation life. Experiments were performed in Lewis’ Spur Gear Fatigue Rig to validate predicted crack propagation results. Gears with various backup ratios were tested to validate crack-path predictions. Also, test gears were installed with special crack-propagation gages in the tooth fillet region to measure bending-fatigue crack growth. From both predictions and tests, gears with backup ratios (rim thickness divided by tooth height) of 3.3 and 1.0 produced tooth fractures, whereas a backup ratio of 0.3 produced rim fractures. For a backup ratio of 0.5, the experiments produced rim fractures and the predictions produced both rim and tooth fractures, depending on the initial geometry of the crack. Good correlation between predicted and measured crack growth was achieved when the fatigue crack-closure concept was introduced into the analysis. As the gear rim

129 thickness decreased, the compressive cyclic stress in the gear-tooth fillet region increased. This retarded crack growth and increased the number of crack-propagation cycles to failure. Derived from text Crack Propagation; Gear Teeth; Aircraft Engines; Mechanical Engineering

20050170535 Middlesex General Industries, Inc., Woburn, MA, USA A Focus on Cycle Time-Vs-Tool Utilization ‘Paradox’ With Material Handling Methodology Horn, George W.; Podgorski, William A.; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 405-412; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Through large scale factory simulation, it is well established that the semiconductor manufacturing process is characterized by a fixed, non linear relationship between mean factory cycle time and over all average tool utilization. This relationship allows the selection of one of those parameters only, which then determines the other, for any specific factory. Although, on a local level, the relationship between cycle time and tool utilization is predicted through queuing theory, we find very much the same results for the entire, highly recursive, large scale factory. On this scale the relationship remains paradoxical as it still does not allow us to have short mean cycle times and high average tool utilization concurrent with each other. Net improvements in factory performance can be had only by jumping this relationship to a parallel curve, more favorable in the ‘cycle time vs. tool utilization’ domain. And, that requires fundamental system changes. Successful emphasis on such shifts currently focuses on methodologies locally synchronizing asset use. The perspective of this paper is different, in that it considers the aggregate factory, where local asset utilization is determined only by the random influence of the factory at large.

130 The Mie model is widely used to analyze light scattering from particulate aerosols. The Diesel Particle Scatterometer (DPS), for example, determines the size and optical properties of diesel exhaust particles that are characterized by measuring three angle-dependent elements of the Mueller scattering matrix. These elements are then fitted using Mie calculations with a Levenburg-Marquardt optimization program. This approach has achieved good fits for most experimental data. However, in many cases, the predicted real and imaginary parts of the index of refraction were less than that for solid carbon. To understand this result and explain the experimental data, we present an assessment of the Mie model by use of a light scattering model based on the coupled dipole approximation. The results indicate that the Mie calculation can be used to determine the largest dimension of irregularly shaped particles at sizes characteristic of Diesel soot and, for particles of known refractive index, tables can be constructed to determine the average porosity of the particles from the predicted index of refraction.

There are no known liquid lubricants that can lubricate above 300 C without significant decomposition. Solid lubricants could be considered, but problems caused by the higher friction coefficients and wear rates of the solid lubricant film make this an undesirable approach. An alternative method of lubrication is currently being investigated: vapor phase lubrication. In vapor phase lubrication, an organic liquid (in our studies a thioether was used) is vaporized into a flowing air stream that is directed to sliding surfaces where lubrication is needed. The organic vapor reacts at the concentrated contact sliding area generating a lubricous deposit. This deposit has been characterized as a thin polymeric film that can provide effective lubrication at temperatures greater than 400 C. Initial tribological studies were conducted at the NASA Lewis Research Center and Cleveland State University with a high-temperature friction and wear tribometer. A cast iron rod was loaded (a 4-kg mass was used to generate a contact pressure of 1.2 MPa) against a reciprocating, cast iron plate at 500 C. This system was then lubricated with the vapor phase of thioether. Author High Temperature Lubricants; Deposits; Wear; Vapor Phase Lubrication; Ethers

The procedure uses a Navier-stokes solver that admits chemical and vibrational nonequilibrium thermodynamics and high-pressure effects. The two-step optimization process is accomplished with a basic least-squares optimization (LSO) method. The first step of the design procedure begins with an existing inviscid irrotational method of characteristics (MOC) that is limited to thermally and calorically perfect gas (TCPG). MOC is used to design an inviscid contour, which is then corrected with a boundary layer displacement thickness from an integral momentum formulation. The deleterious effects of the TCPG assumption are ameliorated by using an effective specific-heat ratio an effective gas constant the TCPG computation yields the same exit Mach number and velocity as a quasi-one-dimensional computation based on

131 thermochemical equilibrium. The MOC based contour is then formally optimized using the LSO method, treating various MOC program input variables as formal design parameters. The objective function is the square deviation of flow properties from target values at the nozzle exit, excluding the boundary layer, and is computed with the Navier-Stokes solver. The flow properties chosen for the objective function are the velocity components and the static pressure and density. After the MOC contour is optimized, the second step of the optimization procedure commences. In the second step, the contour is further perturbed by adding a small correction distribution represented as a cubic spline fitted to a limited number of nodes along the contour. The correction values of the nozzle radius are the formal design parameters for the next application of LSO.

The control scheme based on send-ahead (SAHD) wafers with a fixed post-CMP target has low cost, but it neglects the process variations before and during STI CMP. An ‘interactive’ control method, based on extensive measurements, compensates for much of the variations coming in to STI CMP, and eliminates the problem of underpolishing. However, this method comes with a high cost for multiple measurement steps. This paper compares the fixed-target planarization to the interactive STI control methodology.

Scanlan, Brian; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 103-108; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Virtually all wafer fabrication lines now employ some form of defect inspection plan to identify killer defect types on its wafers and hence protect and predict die sort yields. The sample plans used vary greatly in terms of the number of lots inspected, number of wafers inspected, wafer coverage and sensitivity used. Although often viewed as a ‘non value added’ process step, typically defect inspection is now incorporated into the process flow at a number of points. However, as with all process steps, there is a cost associated with defect inspection and oversampling can often add more to the wafer manufacturing cost than the cost of yield loss that might otherwise have been recovered. It is imperative therefore, that the sampling methodology employed in the fab be cost effective i.e., that the benefits gained from it far outweigh the cost of the inspection. As a minimum, the plan must be capable of detecting excursions that will ultimately result in probe yield loss. In addition, the detection of these ‘excursions’ must be timely to ensure that the product at risk from the excursions is minimized. In summary, the plan must be consistent with the ‘acceptable’ excursion yield loss in the fab. This paper looks more closely at the plans used in two very different labs. on the same site. The first isa4inline, with greater than lu geometries. The second isa6inline with less than 0,5u geometries. The same overall structure governs both fabs and the equipment set in both areas is largely similar. However, the sampling strategy employed in the two areas is very different as each areas plan is tailored specifically to meet its needs, specifically in relation to its yield objectives. This paper describes in some detail the plans used in both areas, h also looks at bow ‘inspection sensitivity’ also has to be tailored to meet the needs of the plan. We will look at various defect types, and how some have to be ‘sieved’ out to ensure the data generated by the inspection is meaningful.

This exciting outcome is the effect of improved customer support and equipment performance by Japanese and American suppliers. One of the reasons for last year’s enhanced effort is the lack of growth in the equipment market. Although focusing on customer satisfaction is important under any circumstances, companies often increase their attention to customers as sales decrease. The potential pain of losing a customer is greater today than it was two years ago. increasing. For example, every year the top companies improve over last year’s score.

In the latest survey, European manufacturers still have the highest ratings and Japanese have the lowest, but the difference between them is only 0.40 points.

The tradeoff, however, is the limitation it places on the manufacturing system by restricting the number of servers where a given lot can be directed. Relaxing dedication and deployment allows for a lower cycle time through the process step, but this same relaxation may also drive the need for additional processing and measurements processing in the photolithography sector, thus encouraging longer overall cycle time for the sector. This paper analyzes the costs and benefits of dedication on the basis of overall photosector cycle time. The variables controlled by the decisions to dedicate include send-aheads, number of measurements, sample size, and skip-plan levels. Strict photolithography dedication drives fewer send-aheads, measurements, a smaller sample size and larger skip plans; a level is reached where the dedication is offset by additional waiting time for dedicated lots at specific photolithography tools. The same level of rework and process defects can be achieved at a lower overall sector cycle time by determining the minimum cycle time while maintaining the same operating procedures and quality controls. The solution, in this instance, depends on the number of technologies and part numbers being run through the photolithography sector, an effect that must be detailed and analyzed.

In particular in a high-cost environment like the semiconductor arena, the application of those, up to now, research techniques will offer an attractive alternative to the traditional approaches of yield enhancement. For increasing wafer diameters and more compact technologies where the effect of tiny defects produces fatal consequences, a yield enhancement strategy based on inspections will require the synergy of intelligent new tools that, on the

134 other hand, have a fraction of cost of the current inspection machines. This new strategy is used to classify and analyse in a systematic way all the production of a fab, providing new possibilities to improve yields without penalizing cycle time, cost and reaching inspections levels impossible to achieve without this new approach.

To reduce time and costs of defect size extraction procedures the paper presents a novel methodology to determine defect size distributions. For that, we use all measured defect extension values per inspected defect compared to known methodologies just using one size value per defect. Our approach enables a reduction of the sample of defects to be inspected in semiconductor manufacturing fabs. Nevertheless, the novel methodology will provide even better accuracy of defect size distributions. Author Defects; Size Distribution; Manufacturing; Process Control (Industry)

The benefits of using ISPM include real-time process monitoring, reduced tool qualification costs and improved product cycle time [1,2]. All of these improvements lead to increased manufacturing productivity and a lower operating cost [3]. This paper describes the production implementation of an in-situ particle monitor on an LPCVD vertical furnace. The furnace is a high-risk, critical process to monitor in real time because of the large number of wafers processed in each batch. Correlation between surface scanner counts, ISPM counts, test yield and process trending is discussed., along with sensor reliability and a future plan for statistical control.

One of the most important functions of wafer inspection is to capture process excursions and to identify the sources of yield-limiting (‘killer’) process defects. Wafer inspection has three stages: 1) defect detection, 2) review and classification of the defects , and 3) analysis of the defectivity trends throughout the process. This paper presents a new methodology for wafer inspection and defect classification by integrating a leading, production-proven wafer inspection system (KLA-Tencor’s AIT) with a leading, production-proven system for automatic defect classification (KLA-Tencor’s IMPACT ADC). The ADC (Automatic Defect Classification) system resides entirely within the skins of the inspector. Thus the integrated system takes a cassette of wafers in, and automatically produces all the information needed to analyze defectivity trends by type. Furthermore, adding this on-board ADC system does not increase the footprint of the inspection system. This is an important consideration in an industry where space on the production floor is very precious. In this paper, we present the results of extensive characterization of the combined inspection/ADC system, including case studies from semiconductor manufacturers. The reported results include: accuracy and purity of automatic defect classification compared to manual classification by a defect expert on various process layers; overall time-to-results compared to traditional inspection/classification strategies; and defect sizing based on high resolution defect images of ADC compared with SEM measurement. Key advantages of the combined inspection/ADC system were found to include high accuracy and consistency

The objective of this study was to examine the effect of varying parameters of the debris trajectory on the damage tolerance. Impacts at the upper and lower surface and the apex of the leading edge were examined. For each location, trajectory variances included both the alpha and beta directions. The results of the analysis indicated in all cases the beta sweep decreased the amount of damage to the panel. The increases in alpha resulted in a significant increase in damage to the RCC panel. In particular, for the lower surface, where the alpha can increase by 10 degrees, there was a nearly 40% increase in the impulse. As a result, it is recommended that for future analyses, a 10 degree offset in alpha from the nominal trajectory is included for impacts on the lower surface. It is also recommended to assume a straight aft, or zero beta, trajectory for a more conservative analysis. Author Impact Tests; Wing Panels; Leading Edges; Impact Damage; Trajectories

The program calls for a baseline system to be designed by the end of 1995, with subsequent testing of innovative concepts. Five metal candidate materials are currently being evaluated for the baseline system in the Structures Division’s Ballistic Impact Facility. This facility was developed to provide the EPM program with cost-efficient and timely impact test data. At the facility, material specimens are impacted at speeds up to 350 m/sec by projectiles of various sizes and shapes to assess the specimens’ ability to absorb energy and withstand impact. The tests can be conducted at either room or elevated temperatures. Posttest metallographic analysis is conducted to improve understanding of the failure modes. A dynamic finite element program is used to simulate the events and both guide the testing as well as aid in designing the fan-containment system.

Advanced ceramics are candidate materials for these elevated-temperature applications. As design protocols emerge for these material systems, designers must be aware of several innate features, including the degrading ability of ceramics to carry sustained load. Usually, time-dependent failure in ceramics occurs because of two different, delayedfailure mechanisms: slow crack growth and creep rupture. Slow crack growth initiates at a preexisting

136 flaw and continues until a critical crack length is reached, causing catastrophic failure. Creep rupture, on the other hand, occurs because of bulk damage in the material: void nucleation and coalescence that eventually leads to macrocracks which then propagate to failure. Successful application of advanced ceramics depends on proper characterization of material behavior and the use of an appropriate design methodology. The life of a ceramic component can be predicted with the NASA Lewis Research Center’s Ceramics Analysis and Reliability Evaluation of Structures (CARES) integrated design programs. CARES/CREEP determines the expected life of a component under creep conditions, and CARES/LIFE predicts the component life due to fast fracture and subcritical crack growth. The previously developed CARES/LIFE program has been used in numerous industrial and Government applications.

The increased temperature capabilities of these airfoils has allowed for a significant increase in the operating temperatures in turbine sections, resulting in superior propulsion performance and greater efficiencies. However, the previously developed methodologies for life-prediction models are based on experience with polycrystalline alloys and may not be applicable to single-crystal alloys under certain operating conditions. One of the main areas where behavior differences between single-crystal and polycrystalline alloys are readily apparent is subcritical fatigue crack growth (FCG). The NASA Lewis Research Center’s work in this area enables accurate prediction of the subcritical fatigue crack growth behavior in single-crystal, nickel-based superalloys at elevated temperatures.

In some instances, these aging structures fail to meet prevailing seismic engineering codes. In the USA alone, 30 percent of the Army’s structures use unreinforced masonry (URM) walls. As such, URM structures have inadequate plane lateral strength and are prone to failure during seismic events. Upgrading these structures to meet existing seismic codes often requires the use of new materials and systems such as fiber-reinforced-polymer (FRP) composites. The versatility and resilience of such advanced composites make them ideal candidate materials for reducing the cost of seismic rehabilitation of DOD facilities. Though many studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of FRP reinforcements as structural upgrades for masonry walls, little has been done to explain their impact on the building envelope. This study was undertaken to discover and define the combination of building envelope and hygrothermal conditions that might result in vapor liquefaction at the ceramic-epoxy interface, and subsequently debond or delaminate the applique. This research developed fundamental models and associated material parameters to predict thermal and moisture transport across dissimilar building materials specifically FRP composite appliques to concrete masonry units (CMUs) used for seismic upgrades.

137 1998). However, our firsthand experience demonstrates that successful communities are more likely to emerge when there is a systematic process for establishing, growing, and sustaining CoPs in a business setting; and viable CoPs in the workplace need structure, direction, and help to set a solid foundation for success. As expected, potential members and business leaders expect CoPs to support real business needs prior to investing their own time and organizational resources to support the communities. If CoPs are properly implemented, benefits to the organization are faster and better-informed decision-making and a workforce that has access to knowledge at the point of need.

The experimental work considered two similar structures: a field-improvised design observed to be in use in-theatre, and one developed by ERDC to meet specific warfighter requirements. Three objectives directed the experimental program, and included: 1. Comparison of the protection levels provided by the two structures to determine if ERDC modifications enhanced survivability, 2. Evaluation of the effects of a high-yield blast event on the bunkers, and 3. Validation of the ERDC modified bunker’s protection levels when exposed to an array of indirect fire threats. Research efforts conducted to achieve these objectives included numeric predictions of bunker performance, field experimentation to validate threat protection levels, and numeric simulations to determine the effects of structural modifications.

The structure is exposed through Tertiary and recent regional uplift, weathering and erosion. During Quaternary time the area was repeatedly covered by glaciers and consequently large parts of the crater structure is covered by moraine.

This is achieved by detecting x-rays and gamma rays emitted during muonic cascades in constituent atoms in the samples. Negative muons have identical properties to electrons except for a mass 207 times that of the electron. When they are captured by an atom they are free to rapidly cascade to the lowest muonic 1s groundstate unaffected by the exclusion principle that prevents decay of electrons. The innermost muonic states (n\h14) have a Bohr radius that is well inside the Bohr radius of the 1s electronic orbitals and so the muon is captured to an orbital that has a mean radius very close to the nucleus and is considerably affected by nuclear properties such as shape and size. Isotope shifts are significant. Transitions between muonic states result in the emission of characteristic x-rays and gamma rays that can be used to quantify elemental abundances. Isotope shifts for many elements are sufficiently large that different isotopes may be resolved and abundances may be quantified. For light atoms, after the mean muon lifetime of 2.2 s, the muon decays to an electron leaving the atom in its original state or, for heavier atoms there is a significant probability that the muon will be captured by the nucleus and be transformed. There is thus the potential for an (almost) non-destructive technique for isotopic and elemental analysis.

The two-layer emitters are comprised of an extremely thin ((approx)5-nm) intrinsic a-Si:H (a-Si:H(i)) layer topped with a slightly thicker phosphorus-doped a Si:H layer (a-Si:H(n)). Open-circuit voltages (V(sub oc)) above 620 mV are routinely achieved with a maximum of over 640 mV, indicating effective passivation of the crystalline silicon (c-Si) surface by the thin a Si: H(i/n) stack. We used real-time spectroscopic ellipsometry (RTSE) as an in-situ diagnostic tool to monitor film thickness and roughness in real-time and to observe silicon crystallinity by further ex-situ data analysis.

The performances of commercial cells and modules are now at levels that would have been very difficult to imagine just a few years back. At the same time, PV energy sales are expected reach 1 GW/yr in the near future, and there has been a rapid drop in the selling-price of PV modules. This is indeed astounding progress. However, this path has not been easy or free from obstacles and bottlenecks. There have been numerous difficulties and barriers in the science and technology of photovoltaics, as well as on the business end. For example, there have been times of insufficient funding, limited R&D resources for universities and laboratories, and a shortage of feedstock. Si-PV has overcome these hurdles and many other barriers. The PV industry has weaned itself away from the microelectronics technology, many new techniques of crystal growth and low-cost cell fabrication methods (suitable for PV) have been successfully applied, and mc-Si cells are nearing the efficiencies of CZ-Si wafers. On a more technical side, perhaps the most intriguing achievement is the development of the science and technology for making high-efficiency cells on low-quality material through gettering and impurity/defect passivation. Si-PV is continually on the path to lower costs and to be competitive with conventional sources of electric energy. Hopefully, this most significant barrier, of meeting the conventional energy cost, will be surmounted in the near future.

Since 1999, MSE has been working with NASA-LaRC to investigate the concept of a transport-size emissionless aircraft fueled with liquid hydrogen combined with other possible breakthrough technologies. The goal of the project is to significantly advance air transportation in the next decade and beyond. The power and propulsion (P/P) system currently being studied would be based on hydrogen fuel cells (HFCs) powering electric motors, which drive fans for propulsion. The liquid water reaction product is retained onboard the aircraft until a flight mission is completed. As of now, NASA-LaRC and MSE have identified P/P system components that,

142 according to the high-level analysis conducted to date, are light enough to make the emissionless aircraft concept feasible. Calculated maximum aircraft ranges (within a maximum weight constraint) and other performance predictions are included in this report.

These primary programmatic uses of the CMR Facility have not changed significantly since it was constructed. In 1998, a seismic fault was found to the west of the CMR Facility and projected to extend beneath two wings of the building. As part of the overall Risk Management Strategy for the CMR Facility, the Department of Energy (DOE) proposed to replace it by 2010 with what is called the CMR Facility Replacement (CMRR).

In an effort to lower the respirable dust exposure of these surface miners, the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) has been conducting research to address this problem in a practical and economically viable manner. This report focuses on two areas of research performed at the Pittsburgh Research Laboratory (PRL) to lower miners’ exposure to respirable dust at surface operations. The first area deals with enclosed cabs. A significant number of miners work in enclosed cabs at surface operations, including drill, dozer, loader, and scraper operators, as well as a vast array of different haulage vehicles and trucks. Secondly, this report discusses methods to lower dust levels at surface drills. The dust generated during surface drilling exposes the drill operator, drill helper, explosive crew, as well as any other individuals working in and around the drill to high respirable dust levels. The intent of the report is to provide mine operators with a number of techniques to lower the dust exposure of workers at surface operations. NTIS Control Surfaces; Dust; Dust Collectors

Specifically, we investigate the containment of hazardous airborne material obtainable under a range of ventilation configurations. The desirable ventilation configuration should ensure excellent containment of the hazardous material released from the workspace above the downdraft table. However, increased airflow raises operation costs, so the airflow should be as low as feasible without compromising containment. The airflow is modeled using Reynolds

145 Averaged Navier Stokes equations with a high Reynolds number k-epsilon turbulence model. CFD predictions are examined for several ventilation configurations.

In many circumstances a designer wishes to use intermittent ventilation, rather than constant ventilation, but there are no easy equivalencies available. This report develops a model of efficacy that allows one to calculate how much intermittent ventilation one needs to get the same indoor air quality as a the continuous value specified. We have found that there is a simple relationship between three dimensionless quantities: the temporal ventilation effectiveness (which we call the efficacy), the nominal turn-over and the under-ventilation fraction. This relationship allows the calculation of intermittent ventilation for a wide variety of parameters and conditions. We can use the relationship to define a critical time that separates the regime in which ventilation variations can be averaged over from the regime in which variable ventilation is of low effectiveness. We have found that ventilation load-shifting, temporary protection against poor outdoor air quality and dynamic ventilation strategies can be quite effective in low-density buildings such as single-family houses or office spaces.

The flow rate of the gas was 30 ml/sec, temperature was varied from 21 C to 73 C. Oxygen concentration ranged from 3 to 20% while SO(sub 2) concentration, from 500 to 2000 ppm. SO(sub 2) recovery was determined by analyzing SO(sub 2) concentration in the liquid samples taken from the bubblers. NTIS Desulfurizing; Flue Gases; Pollution Control

F.; Oct. 1999; 20 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834566; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge Simultaneous removal of SO(sub 2) and NO(sub x) using a regenerable solid sorbent will constitute an important improvement over the use of separate processes for the removal of these two pollutants from stack gases and possibly eliminate several shortcomings of the individual SO(sub 2) and NO(sub x) removal operations. The work done at PETC and the DOE-funded research of the investigators on the sulfation and regeneration of alumina-supported cerium oxide sorbents have shown that they can perform well at relatively high temperatures (823-900 K) as regenerable desulfurization sorbents. Survey of the recent literature shows that addition of copper oxide to ceria lowers the sulfation temperature of ceria down to 773 K, sulfated ceria-based sorbents can function as selective SCR catalysts even at elevated temperatures, SO(sub 2) can be directly reduced to sulfur by CO on CuO-ceria catalysts, and ceria-based catalysts may have a potential for selective catalytic reduction of NO(sub x) by methane.

20050172079 Mott Corp., Farmington, CT, USA Full Scale Regenerable HEPA Filter Design Using Sintered Metal Filter Elements Ramos, G.; Rubow, K.; Sekellick, R.; Nov. 27, 2002; 28 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834564; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge A Department of Energy funded contract involved the development of porous metal as a HEPA filter, and the subsequent design of a full-scale regenerable HEPA filtration system (RHFS). This RHFS could replace the glass fiber HEPA filters currently being used on the high level waste (HLW) tank ventilation system with a system that would be moisture tolerant, durable, and cleanable in place. The origins of the contract are a 1996 investigation at the Savannah River Technology Center (SRTC) regarding the use of porous metal as a HEPA filter material. This contract was divided into Phases I, IIA and IIB. Phase I of the contract evaluated simple filter cylinders in a simulated High Level Waste (HLW) environment and the ability to clean and regenerate the filter media after fouling. Upon the successful completion of Phase I, Phase IIA was conducted, which included lab scale prototype testing and design of a full-scale system. NTIS Air Filters; Particulates; Filtration; Metals

This work included procuring recrystallized SiC monoliths, developing membrane and cement materials, and defining a manufacturing process for the production of prototype full sizes HEPA filters. CeraMem has demonstrated that prototype full size filters can be manufactured by producing 9 full size filters that passed DOP aerosol testing at the Oak Ridge Filter Test Facility. One of these filters was supplied to the Savannah River Technical Center (SRTC) for process tests using simulated HLW tank waste. SRTC has reported that the filter was regenerable (with some increase in pressure drop) and that the filter retained its HEPA retention capability. CeraMem has also developed a Regenerable HEPA Filter System (RHFS) design and acceptance test plan that was reviewed by DOE personnel. The design and acceptance test plan form the basis of the system proposal for follow-on work in Phase IIB of this project. NTIS Filtration; Particulates

The impact feature was first identified by Sawatzky; Lerbekmo et. al. suggested a 200m impactor formed this structure. Located within the Western Canada Sedimentary Basin, in southern Alberta, this 15 km complex structure displays a prominent central uplift, annular synform, and rim uplift within Cretaceous and Lower Tertiary strata. Formed primarily in shaly sediments mineralogical evidence of has not been found, but shattercones occur at one subcrop locality near the center of the central uplift. Well and seismic data from the Eagle Butte area in southeastern Alberta were used to interpret the impact structure. Well locations were superimposed on a seismic grid spanning the crater. Synthetic seismograms were created from the identified formation tops, which were then used to interpret the 2D seismic profiles. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Results where acquired early 2005 using the prototype of 270 MHz antenna provided by GSSI and EXI. Sounding results show a variety of fractured terrains over large areas with distinguished curved features matching with the presence of breccias and shutter cones on the surface. Figure 1, present an example of the recently acquired profiles for a crater around 30 m, where we can clearly identify the curvature of the buried crater at 3 meter deep (in the central part of the figure) and the presence of fractures that appear as hyperbolic feature on the radar tomography (In Purple, in the bottom of the figure). The feature is filled with consecutive layer of sediments that appear as yellow horizontal lines. A nearly similar profile is obtained when surveying in the perpendicular direction to the first profile, hence confirming the shape of the impact. In the conference we will present a 3D reconstitution of such features and discuss the implications of such results for future subsurface explorations for arid planetary context where wind erosion and dust accumulation may hide the presence of similar feature such the case for Mars.

S.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains color illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document The idea that hand-size Australasian and other lost volatile elements as a result of vapor fractionation [1] recently suffered another blow (see [2-5]) when [6] reported that tektites contain isotopically normal potassium. If the melts were a) well stirred for b) long enough at high temperatures and c) low ambient pressures, then the lighter K isotopes should have evaporated preferentially, contrary to observation. Still, doubt remains. If all the conditions (a-c) listed above were not met, then isotopic (and elemental) fractionation could have been disguised by re-condensation or limited to areas not yet systematically investigated (flanges). Humayun and Koeberl [6] specifically left the door ajar for K isotope fractionation in microtektites, whose small sizes compared to those of normal tektites, might allow mixing or K diffusion throughout the melt volume. Although microtektites and the flanges on buttons contain isotopically normal Mg [4], Mg is fairly refractory and typically fractionates little in either cosmic spherules [7] or lunar fines [8], wherein more volatile elements such as K and S routinely do fractionate [7,9,10]. More positively, bottle-green Australasian microtektites, which have high Mg concentrations (3.48 Mg(wt%) 6.48), contain isotopically heavy Li and B [11]. Glass et al. [12] proposed that these objects formed by vapor fractionation of normal microtektites. Derived from text Potassium Isotopes; Fractionation; Tektites; Spherules; Evaporation; Vapors; Plumes;

H.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains color illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Using simple, qualitative heat balance models, this paper addresses textures and structures that will result from the evolution of volatile layers by accretion and by ablation. Such phenomena may have global implications that are not apparent when only flat or sloped surfaces are modeled. In general, structures such as mounds or depressions formed out of volatile materials will evolve in shape such that the growth or retreat of any particular surface will be maximized. It can be shown that the local radius of curvature is proportional to the growth or retreat rate. For example, icy surfaces will tend to form facets that face the dominant sun direction. Two such cases are evaluated: a) Features associated with condensation of volatiles, include cold-trapping and redistribution, such as the concentration of frost around the Viking 2 lander [1]. Here I will focus on textures that likely result from the formation of seasonal CO2 deposits. b) Features associated with sublimation of volatiles, such as those described by Ingersoll et. al. [2] result in textured surfaces that affect both the apparent emissivity and albedo. Similar calculations have been performed with respect to the ‘Swiss cheese’ features on the South Polar Cap [3]. Here, I evaluate the likely sublimation rates from optimal ice scarp structures and their implications for the long-term evolution of the polar caps and formation of layered terrain.

However, there have been very few studies that compare the results of measurements by ground-based field instruments such as the MER flight instrument, Mini-TES, with ground truth [4]. There is consensus in the planetary spectroscopy community [5] that studies are vitally needed to ‘test remote sensing interpretations against results from field research’ [4]. Here we interpret the results of spectroscopic measurements of a single outcrop using a Mini-TESlike instrument, compare it with energy dispersive X ray spectroscopy (EDXS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and backscattered electron (BSE) images of samples collected from the measured site (‘ground truth’), analyze the discrepancies

Unusually short cosmic ray exposure ages of approx.10(exp 5) to approx.10(exp 6) years have been determined from chromites in fossil meteorites found in marine limestone in southern Sweden [3]. These meteorites are thought to be fragments of a major asteroid disruption event about 480 Myr ago (L chondrite parent body break-up). Their exposure ages increase with higher position in the stratigraphic column and the difference between the lowest and highest exposure age matches the total sediment deposition time. This shows that relict chromite grains allow a reliable determination of cosmic-ray exposure ages of fossil meteorites.

The simplest analysis is based on the spin at which a loose particle would fly off of the equator of a spherical body [1]. A more elaborate analysis is for an ellipsoidal body consisting of a material with a Mohr-Coulomb or a Drucker-Prager model, which is appropriate for a granular material without cohesion [2], [3]. A new analysis of the limit spins for an ellipsoidal body with strength dispels that rubble-pile conclusion. Derived from text Asteroids; Ellipsoids; Centrifugal Force; Granular Materials

It has no surface outcrops and can be sampled only by drilling. The 85-km ‘invertedsombrero’ structure consists of a central crater and surrounding annular trough formed in a complex layered target of seawater, sediment, and rock. Since the structure was recognized over a decade ago, most drilling has been within the annular trough formed by collapse of sediments outside the transient cavity. The approx.38-km central crater, as delineated by recent geophysical surveys [1], includes a broad central uplift surrounded by an elliptical moat, a collapsed central-crater margin, and a raised rim. The central uplift has a minimum width of approx.12 km, is elongate to the northwest, and rises approx.500-800 m above the floor of the moat. In 2004, the USGS drilled and partially cored an 823-m scientific test hole in the northeast flank of the central uplift at Cape Charles, Va., providing the first core samples ever recovered from this part of the structure [2, 3]. Coring was reserved for the deepest breccias, and core recovery was about 50%. Well screens for water monitoring were installed at two levels [2].

Trace element data for Apollo 14 high-Al basalts (cf. [6]) suggest a complex origin that cannot be explained by simple fractional crystallization or by short-range unmixing. Initially 5 basalt groups were distinguished [2,3] on the basis of REE abundances. Using the terminology of [2], Group 1 basalts contain the highest REE abundances and Group 5 the lowest. A continuum of compositions [7,8] was defined between Groups 1 and 5, where the sample with the lowest incompatible trace element (ITE) abundances (14321,1422) represented the parental melt. This parent then experienced KREEP assimilation (and fractional crystallization - AFC) to form the compositional continuum.

Nickel and Co are two elements that are commonly used as a measure of melt fractionation, and their partitioning between olivine and melt is fairly well understood. Less clear is their partitioning into spinel, although [3] has explored Ni and Co systematics in experimental charges.

Coronae have varied topographical shapes; radial and concentric fracturing and compressional tectonic structures for their annulae are common, as well as massive volcanism [1-4]. Coronae are interpreted to be the result of updoming and fracturing on the surface due to interaction of hot mantle diapirs with the lithosphere and its subsequent gravitational relaxation [1-9]. According to the most detailed catalog [10] there are 514 coronae on Venus. Coronae have been classified into two types [10]: Type 1 - coronae that have annuli of concentric ridges and/or fractures, and type 2 that have similar characteristics to type 1 but lack a complete annulus of ridges/fractures. Few authors interpreted, that most coronae predate formation of regional volcanic plains with wrinkle ridges (PWR) [11,12], which have been argued to be usable as a general stratigraphic marker for Venus [13-16].

Many workers have studied this question (e.g. [1-4]) and most of them conclude that metal/silicate equilibration in a deep magma ocean covering the surface of the early Earth has produced the high Ni and Co concentrations in the Earth s mantle. In these models estimated pressures and temperatures at the bottom of the magma ocean vary from 24 to 59 GPa and from 2200 to \g4000K.

However, whether or not K also enters core-forming phases, has been debated for over three decades. Arguments favoring entry of K in the core are based on: (1) K-sulfide (with Fe, Ni, Cu, Na, and Cl; djerfisherite) found in highly reduced enstatite chondrites (or aubrites, enstatite achondrites); (2) demonstration that K, owing to an s-d electronic switch at high-pressure, exhibits transition- element like character, (3) solubility of measurable K in Fe-Ni-S liquids at high pressure, temperature conditions, and (4) models of cooling of the core that seem to require, besides convection, some form of radioactivity, and thus lending support to the experimental work. In this contribution, we assess the effect of sequestering K in the core, as it is perhaps an element that is a key to reconciling geochemistry, paleomagnetism, accretion, and thermal evolution models for the planet.

Of all geophysical methods used to study a planet’s structure, seismology is uniquely suited to determine many of the parameters that are critically important to understand the dynamic behaviour of the planet. For this reason seismology has played a leading role in the study of the internal structure of the Earth. The only other solar system body from which we have seismic observations pertinent to its interior properties is the Moon, thus giving us an opportunity to examine planetary formation in general without being tied to the Earth. Issues that, in principle, can be addressed geophysically and which hold the potential of providing constraints on lunar formation and evolution, include the question of whether the Moon has a metallic iron core, the depth of differentiation needed to produce the plagioclase rich highland crust, its bulk composition and the question whether it bears any generic relationship to that of the Earth’s mantle.

20050170620 Tokyo Univ., Japan EBSD Study of Amoeboid Olivine Aggregates with Low-Ca Pyroxenes in the Y-81020 CO3.0 Chondrite Komatsu, M.; Krot, A. N.; Miyamoto, M.; Keil, K.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 11; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050170551; Original contains black and white illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Amoeboid olivine aggregates (AOAs) are irregularly-shaped objects composed of fine-grained forsteritic olivine, minor Fe,Ni-metal, and a refractory component consisting of spinel, Al-diopside, anorthite, melilite. Although among other refractory inclusions, AOAs are mineralogically and chemically most similar to magnesian, olivine-rich (Type I) chondrules, they have lower contents of SiO2, Cr2O3, MnO, and Na2O, and generally lack low-Ca pyroxene. Recently, Krot et al. [1,2] reported that approx. 10% of AOAs in primitive carbonaceous chondrites contain low-Ca pyroxene (Fs(sub 1-3)Wo(sub 1-5). It is found in three major textural occurrences: (i) thin (\h15 microns) discontinuous layers around forsterite grains or along forsterite grain boundaries in AOA peripheries; (ii) 5-10-microns-thick haloes and subhedral grains around Fe,Ni-metal nodules in AOA peripheries, and (iii) shells of variable thickness (up to 70 microns), commonly with abundant tiny (3-5 micron) inclusions of Fe,Ni-metal grains, around AOAs. Forsterite grains in AOAs with low-Ca pyroxene have O-16-rich isotopic compositions (delta O-17 \h -20%). Low-Ca pyroxenes of the textural occurrences (i) and (ii) are O-16-rich (delta O-17 \h -20%), whereas those of (iii) are O-16-depleted (delta O-17 = -6% to -4%). Based on these observations, Krot et al. [1,2] concluded that AOAs are aggregates of solar nebular condensates formed in an O-16-rich gaseous reservoir, in the CAI-forming region(s). Solid or

157 incipiently melted forsterite in some AOAs reacted with gaseous SiO in the same nebular region to form low-Ca pyroxene. Some other AOAs accreted 16O-poor pyroxene- normative dust and experienced varying degrees of melting, most likely in chondrule-forming region(s). In order to understand the thermal history of AOAs with and without low-Ca pyroxenes, we performed the mineralogical and structural study of AOAs in the CO3.0 carbonaceous chondrite Yamato-81020, one of the most primitive CO chondrites [3], using electron back-scattering diffraction (EBSD) technique which can provide crystallographic information of micron-sized regions on the surface of a polished thin section.

T. Gehrels), 779; Atkinson et al. 2000, Report of the UK Task Force on Potentially Hazardous NEOs; Ward and Asphaug 2000, Icarus, 145, 64). A peculiarity of ocean impacts is the potential global effects of an impact that would otherwise be of only regional or local importance should it occur on land. This is, of course, due to the ability of waves to propagate globally, as seen by the terrible effects of the recent earthquake off the coast of Sumatra. The overall process of an impact tsunami is complex and falls into several distinct phases: 1) initial impact of the bolide into the ocean and formation of a transient cavity in the water, 2) collapse of the cavity and propagation of large waves from the impact center outward over deep water (typically several km in depth), 3) initial effects on wave amplitude as shallower water of the continental slope is reached (‘wave shoaling’), possible breaking of waves in relatively shallow water (less than 100 m depth), on continental shelves, and 5) final contact of waves with the shore and their progression onto dry land (‘run-up’ and ‘run-in’). Here we report on numerical calculations (and semi-analytic theory) covering phases 3 and 4.

20050170631 Brown Univ., Providence, RI, USA Permanent CO2 Deposits on Mars at Low Obliquity: The Role of Surface Topography Kreslavsky, M. A.; Head, J.

Changing parameters that control the insolation are obliquity theta, eccentricity epsilon, and, for epochs of large eccentricity, season of perihelion, which can be quantified as areocentric longitude of the Sun from the moving equinox at perihelion L(sub p). Among these three parameters, obliquity has the strongest impact on major climate characteristics. The obliquity of Mars oscillates quasi-periodically, varying up to approx. +/-10deg amplitude and a period of approx.0.12 Ma about a mean value, which, in turn, experiences wide variations at the approx.5 Ma time scale. These long-term variations are dynamically chaotic, hence they cannot be traced by calculation back in time farther than approx.10 Ma. Recent calculations [2] showed that it is probable that the typical obliquity in the Martian geological past was higher than the present. The same calculations showed that it is probable that the planet spent some part of its geological history at low obliquity (in comparison to the present approx.25deg). It cannot be excluded that there were geologically long (10s or even 100s Ma) periods when obliquity oscillated about values as low as 10deg-15deg. Fig. 1 presents an example of such possible oscillations from [2]. Due to the dynamically chaotic nature of the obliquity variations, only the geological record can reveal if there were such periods in the geological history of Mars.

The specimen has a thin, dark weathering varnish, but the interior is a very fresh, black, hard, vitreous-looking rock with small white to yellowish clasts. Minor calcite and barite are presumably a result of desert weathering. Optical and microprobe examinations reveal that it is a well consolidated, polymict breccia consisting of mineral and lithic clasts derived predominantly from mare basalts but with a smaller proportion (approx.20%) of highlands lithologies. The matrix consists mainly of comminuted minerals and clasts in a very fine grained, mostly crystalline and partly vitreous, material with common metal-dusted agglutinate fragments. Some clasts are of earlier regolith breccias. Oxygen isotope analyses of two whole rock fragments by laser fluorination gave delta O-18 = +5.83, +5.96, Delta O-17 = +3.06, +3.10, Delta O-17 = -0,03, -0.05 per mil, respectively.

The Gardnos impact crater is located in southern Norway. The target rocks consist mainly of granitic gneiss with minor amphibolite and quartzite. An unusual feature of the Gardnos impactites is that they are 5-10 times enriched in carbon compared to the target rocks. The carbon is probably derived from a carbon-rich target rock, the Alum shale, no longer present at the impact site. The age of impact is not well constrained, between 900 Ma (deformed pegmatites) and 400 Ma

159 (Caledonian Orogeny), but since the Cambrian Alum shale is the most likely source of carbon, the age of impact was probably between 550 Ma (Cambrian) and 400 Ma. The Gardnos impactites include lithic breccias and melt breccias (melt-matrix breccia and suevite). Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Results reported from the first two close flybys of Titan reveal few if any impact craters exposed at the surface[1], suggesting that geological or atmospheric processes, or both, have worked to prevent the formation of craters or to hide or erase them after formation. Here we quantify some of these processes and use them to constrain the age of Titan s surface: atmospheric and oceanic shielding, flooding by the ocean beneath a thin crust, viscous relaxation, and burial by sedimenting atmospheric aerosols.

Self-shielding due to the line-type absorption spectrum of CO yields product O with large, positive delta(sup 17) and delta(sup 18) values. Conversion of this O to H2O forms the 16O-depleted end member of a two-component mixing model for primitive materials in the solar system [2]. Model results for CO self-shielding in the parent molecular cloud [3] and in the surface region of the solar nebula [4] indicate that CO self-shielding is a viable mechanism, given a flux of far-ultraviolet (FUV) radiation significantly enhanced (approx. 10(exp 3) times) above local interstellar medium (ISM) values, consistent with a star-forming region.

The asteroid impact hypothesis has been bolstered by studies reporting the discovery of grains from Permian-Triassic boundary sections in Antarctica and Australia [1, 2]. Since the possible presence of shocked quartz in Permian-Triassic boundary sediments is a critical data point for these hypotheses, we have reexamined quartz grains from the Graphite Peak section, Antarctica. These grains were previously studied by optical microscopy and the orientation of planar features were measured using a detent spindle stage [1].

160 The OMEGA imaging spectrometer on board Mars Express has comprehensively covered the Northern high latitude regions of Mars in October and November 2004. At that time, the altitude of the spacecraft over the pole was approx. 4000 km and decreasing as the pericenter moved northward. The pixel resolution of OMEGA (1.25 mrad IFOV) ranged between 3 and 5 km for these global maps. With its spectral range (0.4 to 5 microns), S/N and resolution, OMEGA has been able to determine the geographic distribution and specific characteristics of surface ices and minerals. In particular, a major mineralogical unit has been associated with the western part of the Olympia Planitia dark dune deposits (125deg to 245deg longitude, latitude close to 80deg [1]) with a large content in calcium sulfates, most likely gypsum [2]. In late December, the altitude of the spacecraft over high latitudes had decreased, and it was possible to perform observations of specific regions with pixel sizes of approx. 1km. We focus here on the dark dune deposits, the results on surface water ice being presented in a companion abstract [3].

Some of these chondrites (HaH 237, QUE 94411) contain compositionally zoned metal grains with near-chondritic bulk compositions. Thermodynamic modeling of the zoning patterns in these grains suggests that they were formed by condensation in a region of the solar nebula with enhanced dust/gas ratios and a total pressure of 10(exp -4) bars at temperatures between 1400 - 1500 K [3]. If these predictions are correct than the metal grains would have been exposed to abundant H2 gas, which comprises the bulk of nebular systems. Since Fe-based alloys can absorb significant quantities of H, metal grains formed in the solar nebula should contain measurable abundances of H.

20050170979 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Cambridge, MA, USA Surface Generated Cracks on Europa Lee, Sunwoong; Pappalardo, Robert T.; Makris, Nicholas C.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 12; [2005]; 1 pp.; In English; See also 20050170942; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Among Europa s surface features, cycloidal cracks are probably the most important for proving the existence of a subsurface liquid ocean. This is because (1) it has been shown that some of the surface cracks with cycloidal geometries can form given a number of requirements, one of the crucial ones being the presence of a subsurface ocean, and (2) ridges on the cracks are likely due to upwelling of water from a subsurface ocean through conduits formed by surface cracks (Hoppa et al. 1999; Pappalardo et al. 1999; Greenberg 2002). It has been hypothesized that surface generate cracks due to diurnal tensile stress would reach roughly 100m below the surface, where gravitational overburden compressive stress balances the tensile stress (Crawford and Stevenson 1988; Hoppa et al. 1999; Lee et al. 2003). These shallow cracks, however, would not provide conduits for upwelling of water since Europa’s ice thickness is hypothesized to be at least several kilometers. Based on principles from fracture mechanics, we show that surface generated cracks induced by diurnal tensile stresses may reach the subsurface ocean if the ice shell thickness is on the order of several kilometers. It is shown that the stress intensity factor at the tip of a surface crack increases exponentially as the tip reaches near the bottom of the ice shell, negating the effect of overburden compressive pressure. The same mechanism would occur if Europa s upper brittle ice layer is mechanically decoupled from the ductile ice shell, and the cracks may penetrate through the brittle layer. These surface generated cracks may then provide paths for water or warm ductile ice to reach the surface of Europa s ice shell. This result has significant implications for astrobiology on Europa since these surface generated cracks may provide a rapid mechanism for transport of materials from the surface to the ocean and vice-versa.

However, since MAGELLAN it is widely accepted that Earth-like plate-tectonics is not operative at present on Venus. Therefore a lot of models have been published to explain this situation, though at present Earth and Venus are very similar in their bulk parameters and prior to MAGELLAN it was expected, that also on Venus plate-recycling could be active. For example a consideration only based on buoyancy arguments alone would have shown reasonable for plate-recycling still to be active on Venus [2]. On Earth the ratio between the two main forces is about 1:13, which means that trench pull is about 13 times as potent as ridge push and therefore forms the dominant driving force on Earth. In [3, 4] it has been suggested that the reason for the lack of plate-tectonics on Venus is to be found in the unsuitable balance of the driving forces.

Given the large thermal and chemical differences between the picritic melts and the lunar crust, it is inevitable that melt-rock reaction takes place during magma transport through the crust. Figure 1 illustrates the essential features of melt-rock reaction in the lunar crust. It involves both melting and dissolution. As hot olivine-bearing picritic magma (P in Fig.

162 1) travels through lunar crust, via large dikes, say, it losses heat to the wallrock, resulting in wallrock melting [1]. Addition of anorthite-rich components to the reacting magma lowers olivine liquidus temperature, which suppresses olivine crystallization and dissolves existing olivine in the picritic magma, provided the heat flux brought by the melt is sufficiently large to maintain the temperature above the olivine-anorthite cotectic atx=binFig. 1.

In most chondrites, chondrules typically have porphyritic textures, with phenocrysts of olivine and low-Ca pyroxene set in glassy or microcrystalline mesostases; the latter typically contain quench crystals of high-Ca pyroxene. These igneous textures are consistent with crystal-growth from a rapidly cooling (10-1000 K/hr ) silicate melt [3]. Chondrules are often surrounded by coarse-grained igneous rims and contain unmelted fragments of earlier generations of chondrules, suggesting that the chondrule-forming process was repetitive. Most chondrules contain relatively high contents of moderately volatile elements (Na, K, Mn, Cr); some contain primary sulfides [2,4]. Chondrules in unmetamorphosed chondrites are surrounded by fine-grained silicate rims which show no evidence for being melted. Based on these observations, it is generally believed that chondrules formed in cold (\h1000 K) dusty regions of the solar nebula during localized, brief, repetitive heating events with peak temperatures in the range of ~1800-2100 K resulting in incomplete melting of solid precursors accompanied by limited evaporation-recondensation Derived from text Melts (Crystal Growth); Chondrule; Crystal Growth; Silicates; Mineralogy; Evaporation

Treiman et al. [1] suggested an origin as diagenetic material, Chapman and Tanaka [2] and Hynek et al. [3] as ash-flow/fall tuffs, and Malin and Edgett [4] as possible lake beds. Edgett and Malin [5] also showed that such layers occur interbedded with lavas in the Valles Marineris walls, brought to the surface in the central peak of a crater. Beyer and McEwen [6] suggested that less competent layers are interbedded with competent basalts [7] in walls. Lucchitta [8] inferred that a small lobate outcrop of this layer elsewhere, associated with fault scarps, may be ash-flow tuff. The layer is similar in appearance to the lacustrine siliciclastic and evaporate deposits discovered by the MER rover in [9]. Does this layer have the same origin, or could it be the source of the material deposited there?

A striking feature of Coprates is the linear scarp at the floor joint, cutting spur and gully systems on the wall, thus leaving triangular facets. This scarp, especially prominent on the northern wall of Coprates Chasma, can be categorized as a tectonic faulting feature [1]. While the scarp is mostly intact throughout the Coprates system, major landslides stretching across the canyon floor were already found from VIKING images [2]. We looked at the new MEX-HRSC data to see evidence for smaller mass wasting events, too, in the 1 km range that would overlap the tectonic scarp. Hence, we would arrange a three level age estimation: events predating the

163 scarp, events associated or contemporating with the scarp, and events postdating the scarp. Furthermore, the presence of a fan-shaped apron would indicate the landslide to be younger in age or more resistant to fluvial or aeolian erosional processes that took place on the canyon floor.

The crater has no surface expression [1] and is defined by information derived from seismic data, well logs, and information from potential fields studies [2]. Several exploration drilled on the crater rim have encountered significant errors in depth prediction at the Slave Point level due to undetected high velocity areas creating apparent pull-ups, probably related to lateral variations in structure below the Cretaceous unconformity. Previous crater studies [3,4] have shown that an accurate velocity model is critical to characterize impact structures in depth, and can be derived with seismic techniques. Complementary refraction and reflection seismic studies have been completed to improve knowledge of the structural complexity at the rim of the Steen River crater.

164 nebula. This sorting mechanism has also been called upon to possibly explain the metal-silicate fractionation that occurred in the nebula. However, because of complexities surrounding the measurement of chondrule sizes and shapes, the exact nature of the chondrule sorting mechanism remains unproven. Sorting by mass and sorting by aerodynamic properties have both been proposed in the literature [1,2]. The testing of sorting mechanisms is fairly simple in concept because whatever mechanism sorted chondrules should also have acted on other nebular particles such as metal grains. Therefore, if the mass distribution of chondrules in a meteorite is similar to the mass distribution of metal grains, and if this is true for many meteorites, this is evidence that nebular particles were sorted by mass. Accordingly, similar distributions of chondrule and metal grain aerodynamic properties (a function of both shape and mass) are evidence for aerodynamic sorting of these particles. of metal grains in that study, chondrule size distributions were made from thin sections. Also, Type 4 meteorites were used previously, and the possible flattening of particles that can accompany thermal metamorphism, which changes the size distributions, made their results preliminary. We have acquired X-ray CT data for three Type 3.x meteorites in order to measure size and shape distributions of meteorites with the least amount of thermal metamorphism possible in an attempt to test nebular sorting hypotheses.

The non-equilibrium chemical and isotopic compositions of the carbonates preserved in the ALH84001 are direct evidence of ancient secondary minerals that have not undergone significant diagenesis or stabilization processes typical of long-lived aqueous systems on Earth. Thus secondary minerals and sediments on Mars may primarily record the characteristics of the aqueous environment in which they formed without being significantly overprinted by subsequent diagenetic processes during burial.

[1] we compared the spectral properties of the Lunar Soil Characterization Consortium (LSCC) suite of lunar soils [2,3] with their petrologic and chemical compositions to obtain quantitative data. Our initial work on Apollo 17 soils [4] suggested that useful compositional data could be elicited from high quality soil spectra. We are now able to expand upon those results with the full suite of LSCC soils that allows us to explore a much wider range of compositions and maturity states. The model is shown to be sensitive to pyroxene abundance and can evaluate the relative portion of high-Ca and low-Ca pyroxenes in the soils. In addition, the dataset has provided unexpected insights into the nature and causes of absorption bands in lunar soils. For example, it was found that two distinct absorption bands are required in the 1.2 m region of the spectrum. Neither of these bands can be attributed to plagioclase or agglutinates, but both appear to be largely due to pyroxene.

165 The nature of lava flows on Mars and in other planetary bodies is still controversial. Several lines of evidence suggest that different composition, flow behaviors, and erosional capabilities of the Martian and planetary lava are different from those of terrestrial lava flows and fields. On the other hand, several other processes and related deposits not linked to volcanic activity may provide similar morphologies, facies, and depositional patterns. The problem is clear when exotic lava flows with low viscosity and with probable turbulent behavior are observed. In this case, lava flows are quite similar to water flows in term of processes and deposits. The High Resolution Stereo Camera on board of Mars Express has imagined a dark flow features that appear to be deposited by a flow descending over a slop of an Interior Layered Deposits (ILD) Hebes Mensa in (Figures 1 and 2).

In the past it has been widely held that carbonates and evaporites decompose after pressure release due to high residual temperatures [e.g., 1]. However, recent work suggests that carbonates [e.g., 2 4] and evaporites [5] can also undergo shock melting. Current classifications of shock metamorphic stages are based almost entirely on features developed in dense, non-porous crystalline rocks [e.g., 6]. The only available shock classification scheme for sedimentary rocks is for Coconino sandstones from , Arizona [7,8] These studies revealed the dramatic effects of porosity, grain characteristics, and volatiles on the response of quartz to impact in sedimentary targets. For example, in crystalline rocks, quartz will typically be transformed to diaplectic glass at \g32.5\h50 GPa, with melting at \g50 60 GPa [9]. At Meteor Crater, however, diaplectic glass is present in rocks shocked to pressures as low as approx.5.5 GPa, with whole rock melting occurring at \g30 35 GPa [8]. In contrast to sandstones, very little is known about shock metamorphic effects in carbonates. This prompted the present study of calcite-bearing sandstones from the Haughton impact structure. By comparing the shock effects in calcite with known, calibrated effects in quartz, a better understanding of the response of calcite to impact has been made possible. In addition, a shock classification scheme for quartz in the Haughton sandstones has been compiled.

Simple polygonal craters are formed in the excavation stage, when the excavation flow utilizes fractures in the target, leading to more enhanced excavation along the fractures [4]. Thus, the fracture strikes are usually at an angle (often, but not always approx. 45deg, see [1]) to the straight segments of the crater wall. The Barringer (Meteor) crater is a good example [5]. Complex polygonal craters, however, are thought to have the straight rim segments parallel to fractures, because the walls slump along them in the modification stage [2,3,4,1]. Complex polygonal craters often tend to be hexagonal [1,2], like the Soderfjarden crater [6]. For a more thorough review on polygonal craters, see [1] and references therein. Our earlier study [1] from the greater Hellas region, Mars, indicated that data gained from the study of polygonal craters matches, yet significantly augments the structural data from other features like graben or wrinkle ridges. The strong point of polygonal craters compared to other indications of tectonism is that craters are usually ubiquitous on planetary surfaces, whereas e.g. graben are much more rare. The purpose of our current study is to find out what polygonal craters around the Argyre impact basin in the southern hemisphere of Mars can tell us about the structural evolution of the region. We are also refining our methodology to have a deeper insight into the formation of the polygonal shape and the factors possibly affecting it (target material, erosion, crater size etc.).

Three core-drillings were performed in August 2004 at different sites at the crater (Fig. 1). Six core-drillings have previously been performed at Lockne [5], hence the new drillings are numbered 7, 8, and 9.

The Joint Urban 2003 (JUT) project, a cooperative undertaking to study turbulent transport and diffusion in the atmospheric boundary layer conducted in Oklahoma City in the summer of 2003, afforded the Army Research Laboratory (ARL) the opportunity to leverage the capabilities of the Atmospheric Boundary Layer Exploitation (ABLE) suite of instruments to increase our understanding of this environment (Yee et al., 2004). In this paper, we focus on the near surface layer measurements of wind speed and air temperature fluctuations obtained from an array of twelve sonic anemometers on five towers set up outside the central business district (CBD) in surrounding industrial (urban) and semi-rural (suburban) areas. The anemometers sampled at a rate of 10 Hz. After quality control of these data, turbulent statistics of the three wind components and temperature were calculated using ten minute blocks of data (Garvey et al., 2004).

The result of this upgraded accuracy requirement is that fluctuations in angle-of-arrival (AOA) due to small-scale atmospheric turbulence become significant in the error budgets of command-guided weapons systems. In this paper we present a theory of AOA variations based on the incorporation of diffraction-limited Gaussian beam propagation into a geometrical optics formulation of AOA.

Responsible error mechanisms are described by

167 conceptual models that are related to known tropical cyclone motion processes being misrepresented in the dynamical models. Of the 162 (135) cases of large NOGAPS (GFDN) forecast errors, 39 were due to tropical influences with excessive direct cyclone - tropics (E-DCI) interaction occurring most frequently. For the 217 large-error cases due to midlatitude influences, the most frequent error mechanisms were E-DCI (midlatitude), excessive response to vertical wind shear, excessive midlatitude cyclogenesis (E-MCG), insufficient midlatitude cyclogenesis (I-MCG), excessive midlatitude cyclolysis (E-MCL) and excessive midlatitude anticyclogenesis (E-MAG), which accounted for 68% of all large errors occurring in both NOGAPS and GFDN. Characteristics and symptoms of the erroneous forecast tracks and model fields are documented and illustrative case studies are presented. Proper identification and removal of the track forecast displaying an error mechanism could form a selective consensus that will be more accurate than a non-selective consensus.

This effect has been modelled by various researchers (e.g. [1], [2]). The commonly used model of a depolarising medium has two orthogonal symmetry axes, and causes a different attenuation and phase shift for radio waves polarised along these two symmetry axes. The symmetry axes are canted from the local horizontal and vertical by a certain canting angle. The characterising parameters of a depolarising medium, be it a rainstorm or an ice cloud, are the differential attenuation alpha (dB), the differential phase shift beta (deg), and the canting angle phi (deg) of the symmetry axes. In propagation experiments with a dual polarised signal, all these characterising parameters can be calculated from the measured signals. However, a problem occurs when rain and ice crystals are present on the propagation path at the same time. The occurrence of this has been observed by e.g. Dintelmann et al. [3]. In this case, rain and ice both cause some depolarisation which can not easily be separated from the measurements. Since generally the two media do not have the same axes of symmetry, the assumption of a whole medium with two symmetry axes is no longer valid. As a consequence, the anisotropy and canting angle are not unambiguously defined, and can not as easily be calculated anymore. A solution to the problem can be found using the assumption that the two depolarising media are spatially separated. It may be expected that ice crystals usually are present in a higher atmospheric layer than a rainstorm.

Here the authors investigate how the initial growth (up to 48 hours) of synoptic disturbances is characterized by singular vectors and traditional normal-mode analysis. For this purpose the authors utilize both an analytical approach in a two-layer model and data from five winter months from the operational ensemble prediction system at the European Centre for Medium-range Weather Forecasts. In the analytic study the authors reduce the two-layer model so that for any given wave number, the stability only depends on the vertical wind shear and the static stability. The characteristics of the normal and singular modes in the simple model framework are hereafter compared with the results from the operational model. Here the authors also investigate the agreement between a baroclinicity index and areas highlighted by the SV-technique. The authors conclude that the SV-technique is a convenient mathematical procedure which (by construction) initially yields higher growth rates as compared to the normal modes, but it probably carries little information on how real cyclones evolve.

20050173147 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Evaluation of COAMPS Forecasting Performance of Along Coast Wind Events During Frontal Passages James, Carl S.; Mar. 2005; 77 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432237; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Performance of high resolution mesoscale models has been in a continuous state of refinement since their inception. Mesoscale models have become quite skillful in forecasting synoptic scale events such as mid-latitude cyclones. However, atmospheric forcing becomes a much more complicated process when faced with the challenge of forecasting near topography along the coastline. Phenomena such as gap flows, blocked flow winds and low level stratification become important to predictability at these scales. The problem is further complicated by the dynamics of a frontal passage event. The skill of mesoscale models in predicting these winds is not as well developed. This study examines several forecasts by the Coupled Ocean Atmospheric Mesoscale Prediction System (COAMPS) during frontal passage events for the Winter of 2003-2004. An attempt is made to characterize the predictability of the wind speed and direction both before and after frontal passage along the California coast. Synoptic forcing during this time is strong due to the effects of the mid-latitude cyclones propagate across the Pacific. The study’s results indicate that the wind field predictability is subject to several consistent errors associated with the passage of fronts over topography. These errors arise due to difficulty in the model capturing weak thermal advection events and topographic wind funneling. The deficiencies in model representation of topography contributes to these errors. DTIC Coasts; Forecasting; Temperate Regions; Wind Velocity

Sixteen independent sites were analyzed to determine TAWS background. Multispectral satellite data were processed to different spatial resolutions from 1m to 8km. The resultant imagery was further processed to determine TAWS background type. The TAWS background type was refined to include soil moisture characteristics. Soil moisture analyses were obtained using in situ measurements, the Air Force’s Agricultural-Meteorological (AGRMET) model and the Army’s Fast All-seasons Soil Strength (FASST) model. The analyzed imagery was compared to the current default 1 deg. latitude by 1 deg. of longitude database in TAWS. The use of the current default TAWS background database was shown to result in TAWS

169 ranges differing from the 1m standard range by 18-23%. The uncertainty was reduced to 5% when background resolution was improved to 8km in rural areas. By contrast, in urban regions the uncertainty was reduced to 14% when spatial resolution was reduced to 30m. These results suggest that the rural and urban designations are important to the definition of a background database. DTIC Computer Programs; Forecasting; Target Recognition; Targets

Performance in a temperate duty uniform was also compared with performance in cold weather clothing, and differences in walking gait associated with regular combat boots and with cold weather foot gear were investigated. Study participants, 13 Army enlisted men, were each testing in seven clothing conditions. A video-based motion analysis system and a force plate were used to capture the maximum range of motion in various planes of the body and gait kinematics and kinetics. A total of 104 dependent variables were measured directly or derived. Analyses of variance revealed that adding clothing layers interfered with bending at the waist and moving the upper arm at the shoulder. Compared with the temperate duty uniform, cold weather clothing changed walking patterns; participants leaned further forward and moved the arms less at the shoulders with the multilayered clothing.

20050173158 Army Cold Regions Research and Engineering Lab., Hanover, NH USA OS-02: The Impact of Climate and Extreme Weather Events on Military Operations Weatherly, J. W.; Hill, D. R.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432260; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The range of climate and extreme weather events, including high and low temperatures, drought and floods, high and damaging winds, and heavy or blowing snow have significant impacts on military operations. These impacts include increased risk to life and safety, injury, and a degrading effect on mission performance. The effects of snow are felt across a range of tasks from intelligence gathering by sensors to mobility of vehicles and personnel. A comprehensive review of the impacts of snow and weather on military operations is in progress, which will produce a geographic database of climate, extreme weather and snow impacts on military operations.

20050173177 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA A Case Study of Insitu-Aircraft Observations in a Waterspout Producing Cloud Baskin, Clayton M.; Mar. 2005; 55 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432302; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) An analysis of in-situ aircraft observations collected in the parent cloud of a waterspout is presented. Previous waterspout studies were confined mainly to photometric and model simulated data, no in-situ observations were made internal to the parent cloud. On 27 June 2002 the Cooperative Institute for Remotely Piloted Aircraft Studies (CIRPAS) UV-18A Twin Otter aircraft collected observations in a cloud that had developed in a cloud line, located approximately 15km south of Key West, and that formed a waterspout. This study attempts to analyze the waterspout formation process using these data and through a series of scale interactions, from the synoptic scale down to the individual cloud scale. Based upon the analyzed data a hypothetical formation process is developed. The background synoptic scale flow is shown to establish the necessary ambient shear as a key factor in the waterspout formation. The orientation of mesoscale convergent boundaries and thermodynamic processes, internal to the cloud, proved to be an essential factor in developing the vertical motion patterns necessary for

170 formation of an organized circulation in the shear region and to provide the tipping and stretching of the resultant vortex necessary to account for the waterspout formation. This is consistent with conclusions derived from previous studies. DTIC In Situ Measurement; Synoptic Meteorology; Thermodynamics

20050173179 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Accuracy of Western North Pacific Tropical Cyclone Intensity Guidance Blackerby, Jason S.; Mar. 2005; 127 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432310; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Consensus methods require that the techniques have no bias and have skill. The accuracy of six statistical and dynamical model tropical cyclone intensity guidance techniques was examined for western North Pacific tropical cyclones during the 2003 and 2004 seasons using the climatology and persistence technique called ST5D as a measure of skill. A framework of three phases: (i) initial intensification; (ii) maximum intensity with possible decay/reintensification cycles; and (iii) decay was used to examine the skill. During both the formation and intensification stages, only about 60% of the 24-36 h forecasts were within +/- 10 kt, and the predominant tendency was to under-forecast the intensity. None of the guidance techniques predicted rapid intensification well. All of the techniques tended to under-forecast maximum intensity and miss decay/ reintensification cycles. A few of the techniques provided useful guidance on the magnitude of the decay, although the timing of the decay was often missed. Whereas about 60-70% of the 12-h to 72-h forecasts by the various techniques during the decay phase were within +/- 10 kt, the strong bias was to not decay the cyclone rapidly enough. In general the techniques predict too narrow a range of intensity changes for both intensification and decay. DTIC Accuracy; Cyclones; Forecasting; Tropical Storms

20050173182 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Microwave Estimates of the Extratropical Transitions Process Stubblefield, Cedrick L.; Mar. 2005; 87 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432322; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Microwave satellite imagery is a valuable tool for the observation of mature tropical cyclones. This study examined the application of microwave data to the extratropical transition (ET) process. During ET a tropical cyclone (TC) moves into an area of large gradients in many atmospheric parameters. The data sparse regions in which these gradients exist make the examination of key physical mechanisms responsible for the ET process difficult. The Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) was used to investigate temperature and water vapor gradients. Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer was used to examine WV gradients and precipitation intensities. These observations were combined with diagnostic analysis of frontogenesis during the ET process of a TC that re-intensified as an extratropical cyclone and a TC that dissipated. Although the different outcomes of ET were related to differences in coupling between the decaying TC and the midlatitude environment, microwave data were useful for defining specific characteristics that either inhibited or enhanced the coupling midlatitude environment.

20050173185 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Forecasting the Onset and Intensity of Vertically Propagating Mountain Waves Over the Alps Coughlin, Joseph D.; Mar. 2005; 79 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432326; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Vertically propagating waves (VPWs) generated by prominent mountain ridges are a severe hazard to military aircraft operations. Properly forecasting the initiation and duration of such a phenomenon is critical, yet quite often missed by turbulence forecasters. A primary reason for poor forecast skill is vague VPW forecasting guidelines at the Air Force operational centers, focusing a majority of attention on the less severe, more common trapped lee wave response. The USA Air Forces in Europe Operational Weather Squadron (USAFE OWS) has requested a tool to aid in improving forecast ability of VPW events. Satellite analysis from October 2003 through March 2004 indicated an occurrence of six major VPW events to the lee of the Alps. Actual verification of turbulence in each VPW was unavailable due to the minimal pilot report (PIREP) database kept for military flights over Europe, therefore, a subjective assessment of turbulent conditions was determined depending on the resulting cloud signature. Using NCEP GFS model analysis and upstream upper air soundings during these

171 events, an average synoptic condition and critical weather parameters were created. These developed tools were then tested from October 2004 through March 2005 to prove their reliability. In a limited data set these tools identified all VPW events, with only a 25% false alarm rate. This is compared to a 6% forecast ability with 0% false alarm rate determined during the 2003-2004 winter season by USAFE OWS forecasters. These new rules should be valuable in that they will provide a much needed capability for synoptic scale turbulence forecasters to better determine hazardous aviation conditions associated with VPWs.

20050173202 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Meteorological Measurements With a MWR-05XP Phased Array Radar Sandifer, John B.; Mar. 2005; 97 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432370; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Scanning strategies for research and operational applications were developed for meteorological measurements with an experimental PAR, the MWR-05XP. A tornadic storm sampling strategy was developed with a 502.26 ms volumetric update and a resolution of 1.8 Azx2Elx150mrange. A sampling strategy for severe thunderstorm clusters was developed with a 10 second volumetric update and a resolution of 1.8 Azx2Elx300mrange. An operational weather scanning strategy was developed with an 81 second volumetric update and a resolution of 1.8 Azx2Elx150mrange. In general, for the acquisition of weather data, single frequency phased array radars offer only a slight sampling advantage over conventional scanning radars. This research verified that for meteorological sampling with the MWR-05XP, frequency diversity, coupled with electronic elevation scanning, offers a significant sampling advantage over conventional radars. The combination of electronic beam steering and frequency diversity produces a synergistic reduction in sampling time that increases the overall volumetric update rate. This research has also shown that, based on assumptions about the MWR-05XP operating parameters, it is possible to incorporate operational weather scanning into the radar’s multifunction capability.

20050173233 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA North Pacific Tropical Cyclones and Teleconnections Budzko, David C.; Mar. 2005; 70 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432435; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This thesis investigated the hypothesis that variations in tropical cyclone (TC) activity in the western North Pacific (WNP) may affect the teleconnection between the tropical WNP and North America. The teleconnection patterns of the 500 hPa geopotential height between a base point in the WNP (20 N 115 E) and a domain over North America (30 - 45 N, 70 -90 W) from 1951-2001 were examined. The 25 most active and the 25 least active TC years for two regions with the highest climatological average of TC activity, near the Philippines and Taiwan, respectively, were compared to determine if stronger teleconnection patterns occur during the more active years. For both regions, the correlation pattern is significant during active years and insignificant during inactive years, with the results based on TC activity in the Philippines region showing a larger difference. An analysis of 500 hPa mean winds showed weaker winds in the midlatitudes during active TC years when the teleconnection is stronger, which suggests that the teleconnection may consist mainly of and Weng’s (2000) zonally-elongated mode (Mode 1). Further cross correlations of the geopotential height and TC frequency parameters with the tropical eastern and western Pacific sea-surface temperatures (SST’s) showed a significant correlation between TC activity and tropical eastern Pacific SST’s, but the North America-WNP correlation is unlikely to be a result of a direct influence of SST’s on the two regions.

20050173339 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Validation of COAMPS (trademark)/Dust During UAE2 Sokol, Darren D.; Mar. 2005; 65 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432675; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Dust forecasting has become important to military operations over the past three decades. Rules of thumb have been the primary resource for forecasting dust. In recent years, algorithms for weather models have been created to produce

172 atmospheric dust concentration forecasts and are now coming into use operationally. The question becomes how good are the models and what causes errors in their forecasts? This study examines the accuracy of the U. S. Navy’s Coupled Ocean Atmospheric Mesoscale Model dust module during the United Arab Emirates Unified Aerosol Experiment. The study also attempts to determine what causes any error if present. The primary method to verify the model s aerial coverage accuracy is through equitable threat score. Case studies are then conducted to verify the scores and identify sources of any errors identified. Results indicate the model performs well with respect to sourcing dust plumes. Errors in modeled aerial coverage as compared to real world observations appear to be the result of an inability for the model to properly surface layer.

20050173413 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Analysis and Forecasts of 300 hPa Divergence Associated With Severe Convection Using ETA-212 and MM5 Model Data Lisko, Scott C.; Mar. 2005; 135 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432826; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This study investigates severe weather events occurring in the Midwest, Central, and Northeastern USA from May through September 2004. Severe weather events are pinpointed using tornado and hail reports and correlating them with NEXRAD radar data to determine maximum intensity of the event. Severe storms that occur within 30 minutes of a model forecast hour are catalogued for further investigation. Once these events are diagnosed, ETA-212 and MM5 model data is regridded, centered on the storm. Divergence values at 300 hPa are extracted from the model data for each storm event. These storms are then grouped in three ways: all storms, tornadic storms, and hail producing storms. The averaged maximum divergence values from the ETA-212 for each group are examined from the 0 hour analysis through the 21 hour forecast. From these averaged divergence values, a matrix of recommended divergence threshold values is derived. For the MM5 data, a subset of storms is examined. The MM5 and ETA-212 are run on an identical set of storms, and the divergence forecasts are compared. DTIC Convection; Divergence; Forecasting; Storms; Tornadoes

20050170417 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA, Cleveland Clinic Foundation, Cleveland, OH, USA Heart Pump Design for Cleveland Clinic Foundation [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Through a Lewis CommTech Program project with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation, the NASA Lewis Research Center is playing a key role in the design and development of a permanently implantable, artificial heart pump assist device. Known as the Innovative Ventricular Assist System (IVAS), this device will take on the pumping role of the damaged left ventricle of the heart. The key part of the IVAS is a nonpulsatile (continuous flow) artificial heart pump with centrifugal impeller blades, driven by an electric motor. Lewis is part of an industry and academia team, led by the Ohio Aerospace Institute (OAI), that is working with the Cleveland Clinic Foundation to make IVAS a reality. This device has the potential to save tens of thousands of lives each year, since 80 percent of heart attack victims suffer irreversible damage to the left ventricle, the part of the heart that does most of the pumping. Impeller blade design codes and flow-modeling analytical codes will be used in the project. These codes were developed at Lewis for the aerospace industry but will be applicable to the IVAS design project. The analytical codes, which currently simulate the flow through the compressor and pump systems, will be used to simulate the flow within the blood pump in the artificial heart assist device. The Interdisciplinary Technology Office heads up Lewis’ efforts in the IVAS project. With the aid of numerical modeling, the blood pump will address many design issues, including some fluid-dynamic design considerations that are unique to the properties of blood. Some of the issues that will be addressed in the design process include hemolysis, deposition, recirculation, pump efficiency, rotor thrust balance, and bearing lubrication. Optimum pumping system performance will be achieved by modeling all the interactions between the pump

173 components. The interactions can be multidisciplinary and, therefore, are influenced not only by the fluid dynamics of adjacent components but also by thermal and structural effects. Lewis-developed flow-modeling codes to be used in the pump simulations will include a one-dimensional code and an incompressible three-dimensional Navier-Stokes flow code. These codes will analyze the prototype pump designed by the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. With an improved understanding of the flow phenomena within the prototype pump, design changes to improve the performance of the pump system can be verified by computer prior to fabrication in order to reduce risks. The use of Lewis flow modeling codes during the design and development process will improve pump system performance and reduce the number of prototypes built in the development phase. The first phase of the IVAS project is to fully develop the prototype in a laboratory environment that uses a water/glycerin mixture as the surrogate fluid to simulate blood. A later phase of the project will include testing in animals for final validation. Lewis will be involved in the IVAS project for 3 to 5 years.

Among these resistance mechanisms is the P-gp 170 membrane-associated drug-efflux pump, for which the active agent, paclitaxel, is a substrate, and over-expression of the oncogene, HER-2/ neu. Both of these resistance mechanisms are widely associated with breast cancer. Strategies to address Taxol-resistance include its combination with other chemotherapeutic agents and dose-intensification. However, in recent randomized clinical trials, the latter has proven to be largely ineffective, with little meaningful clinical benefit at the price of severe toxicities. Therefore, new agents and strategies are urgently needed to address Taxol-resistant breast cancer. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Carcinogens; Mammary Glands

Cellulase stability in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids has been investigated and the beneficial effect on stability of neutralizing the gastric fluid (e.g., with antacid) was modeled. Cellulose conversion to soluble sugars by different cellulases under simulated gastric and intestinal conditions was also investigated. Up to 30% conversion of crystalline cellulose is possible under these conditions and over 90% of cellulose hydrolysis can be achieved with other cellulosic substrates. Further evaluation would require better in vitro and/or in vivo models of the GI tract. We provided a report on controlled-release formulation of enzymes and conclude that there is potential for targeted delivery of enzymes and other functional components (e.g. , peptides, probiotics, prebiotics, etc.) to the GI tract. There is potential for enhanced cellulose hydrolysis via a tailored enzyme mix and/or protein engineering to improve enzyme performance. There is also potential for generation of, or release of, ‘functional’ carbohydrates using enzyme treatment of food. DTIC Bioconversion; Biomass Energy Production; Enzymes; Feasibility Analysis

The Chi-square statistical analysis is used to determine the extent of the relationship. Results of the test revealed a statistical significance given a Chi-square value of 365.84, 90, 1 and a critical value of 6.63. The explanation for beneficiary selection of psychiatric specialists vice their primary care provider was found to be dependant on current rules not requiring a referral for mental health care coupled with no out of pocket expense for care. The application of best business practices is explored to reduce this trend. The implementation of ADHD clinical path guidelines, marketing strategies and utilization of current pharmacy programs are recommended.

20050173140 Duke Univ., Durham, NC USA Analysis of the Link Between Acquired Expression of a Master Switch Gene of Osteoblast Differentiation by Breast Cancer and Bone Metastasis Wang, Xiao-Fan; Aug. 2004; 10 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-03-1-0600 Report No.(s): AD-A432229; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy Bone metastasis of breast cancer is a major cause of death among breast cancer patients. However, we still know relatively little about why many breast cancers metastasize to the bone. To develop better treatments of bone -metastasis of breast cancer, we need to understand how breast cancer cells acquire the abilities to move to the bone, survive in the new environment, and flourish as metastatic tumors. We postulate that one potential mechanism by which breast cancer cells may acquire such abilities is their acquired expression of bone specific proteins that are known to be involved in mediating the activities of the bone-forming cells in the bone tissue, the - osteoblasts. In this study, we attempted to address the critical question of whether the expression of a master gene for the development of bone-forming osteoblast cells, CBFAl, by the breast cancer cells leads to bone metastasis in an established animal model system. To do this, we manipulated the expression of this gene in established human breast cancer cell lines and planned to -monitor the ability of those cancer cells to grow in the bone as metastases. A positive finding from such studies will pave the way for the development of potential therapeutic agents for the treatment of this horrifying disease.

20050173141 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Using Web-Based Interactive Multimedia to Supplement Traditional Teaching Methods: A Pilot Program for Medical Training of Non-Medical Personnel Gellman, Gregg W.; Mar. 2005; 166 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432230; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This thesis proposes that it is possible to create an adjunct to traditional instructor-led training that will reduce training time and costs and at the same time improve performance using commercial off-the shelf (COTS) software. Motivated by the lessons learned following the attack on the USS Cole on October 12, 2000 in which 17 sailors were killed and 42 were wounded, we created a simulator using readily available software in minimal time with zero funding and tested it against small sample sizes of eventual recipients of the training. The simulator, as part of a blended learning solution, was shown to be as

175 effective as traditional instructor-based learning but was conceived at a fraction of the cost and with a significant reduction in total training time. Both of these factors are increasingly being valued in today’s reality of increased operational tempo and reduced resources.

Expression of Ercal in diploid WT yeast leads to prolonged Gi arrest and lethality. We identified from a collection of ionizing radiation (IR) -sensitive yeast deletion strains or from a pool of 4%46 genetically tagged deletion strains, 34 that rescue Brcal-induced lethality. Two IR resistance genes that rescue Brcal-induced lethality are the transcription factors CCR4 and DHHl. These are checkpoint genes required for cell cycle progression in Gl and S phases following DNA damage. Consistent with a role in radiation resistance, Dhhlp and its highly conserved human ortholog DDX6 were found to physically interact with Brcal in yeast and human cells. Another transcription factor (YAF9) was IR sensitive and rescued Brcal-induced lethality when deleted. This deletion strain and 19 others were subsequently isolated from the deletion strain pool. Most of these deletions (75%) were IR sensitive and hypersensitive to the toxin zymocin which appears to induce DSB damage by inhibiting transcription. Furthermore, most (85%) of these genes are highly conserved suggesting that the hunan orthologs may interact with Brcal to maintain genomic stability and suppress the onset of breast cancer.

Scope: The design and%synthesis of 30 dual inhibitors are proposed. The inhibitors contain 4 different structural core. The synthesized inhibitors will be tested on their ability to inhibit the enzyme estrone sulfatase and also their abilities to inhibit the growth of breast cancer cells stimulated by estrone suffate. In addition, selected inhibitors will be tested in vivo using NMU-induced mammary tumors inrats: Major findings: All thirty of the proposed inhibitors have been synthesized. The inhibitors have been tested for their ability to inhibit estrone sulfatase activity of rat liver microsomes at 20 %M concentrations and in the presence of 20 %M of substrate estrone sulfate. All the inhibitors tested so far are more potent thanour lead compound Tamoxifen sulfamate. Raloxifene sulfamate (inhibitor 30) is still the most potent compound among the 30 inhibitors we have synthesized. It inhibits more than 95% of the sulfatase activity at 20 %M concentration. It is by far the most potent dual inhibitor we have ever obtained. We have selected inhibitor 30 as one of the compounds for in vivo study using NMU-induced mammary tumors in rats. We have synthesized 4 grims of the compound needed for the study. Unfortunately, ten percent of compound 30 degraded unexpectedly Which delay ourin vivo studies. The proposed in vivo study is delayed awaiting the synthesis 9f more compound 30. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Inhibitors; Mammary Glands

20050173145 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Agent-Based Simulation of Disease Spread Aboard Ship Gutierrez, Louis M.; Mar. 2005; 65 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432234; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Extreme examples like the Spanish Flu pandemic of 1918 make clear the devastating impact that communicable diseases can have on military readiness. It is highly desirable to have models and tools that can be used to evaluate the course of a disease over time. These tools can help assess the effectiveness of strategies employed to contain the outbreak such as

176 constraining movement, wearing protective gloves or masks, closing high traffic areas, etc. Armed with these tools, a medical practitioner can better assess the right course of action in a time critical situation. The primary difficulty with creating models and simulations for this purpose is that disease spread depends upon the details of human behavior and environmental variables which are not accounted for in current mathematical models. The likelihood that a particular individual will catch a given disease depends upon such specifics as where he works, whom he interacts with, where he sleeps, what he eats, his habits of personal hygiene, etc. It is hypothesized that a software disease simulation can combine agents that mimic human behavior, a ship specific environment, and disease specific attributes to more accurately model the spread of disease aboard ship than a mathematical model.

The aims have included (1) to evaluate a single-channel, dual wavelength, NIR, frequency-domain oximeter and the algorithms for obtaining tumor HbO2 against tumor PO2 measured by 19F magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), (2) to modify the single-channel system into a 3-channel NIR system, (3) to investigate heterogeneity of HbO2 in breast tumors using the 3-channel NIR system, and (4) to study the influence of three interventions on HbO2 and PO2 of the breast tumors. We have accomplished all of the proposed aims and compared the optical method with concurrent measurements of tumor oxygen tension using oxygen needle electrodes, fiber optic needle systems (FOXY), and 19F MRI. Overall, we conclude that NIR techniques could be a useful non-invasive monitoring tool for breast tumor oxygenation, which is a key to breast tumor therapy planning and tumor prognosis. Furthermore, the need for NIR imaging is obvious and is our current research development in order to fully characterize static and dynamic heterogeneity of breast tumor vasculature under therapeutic interventions.

20050173153 Army Medical Research Inst. of Infectious Diseases, Fort Detrick, MD USA Quorum Sensing: A Transcriptional Regulatory System Involved in the Pathogenicity of Burkholderia mallei Ulrich, Ricky L.; DeShazer, David; Hines, Harry B.; Jeddeloh, Jeffrey A.; Nov. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Contract(s)/Grant(s): Proj-02-4-5X-026 Report No.(s): AD-A432255; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Numerous gram-negative bacterial pathogens regulate virulence factor expression by using a cell density mechanism termed quorum sensing (QS). An in silico analysis of the Burkholderia mallei ATCC 23344 genome revealed that it encodes at least two luxI and four luxR homologues. Using mass spectrometry, we showed that wild-type B. mallei produces the signaling molecules N-octanoyl-homoserine lactone and N-decanoyl-homoserine lactone. To determine if QS is involved in the virulence of B. mallei, we generated mutations in each putative luxIR homologue and tested the pathogenicities of the derivative strains in aerosol BALB/c mouse and intraperitoneal hamster models. Disruption of the B. mallei QS alleles, especially in RJ16 (bmaII) and RJ17 (bmaI3), which are luxI mutants, significantly reduced virulence, as indicated by the survival of mice who were aerosolized with 10 to the 4th power CFU (10 50% lethal doses).

177 The purpose of this analysis was to examine the costs and benefits associated with continuance of ‘in-house’ radiation therapy services to eligible beneficiaries at Tripler Army Medical Center (TAMC), as opposed to purchasing services. In determining the optimal solution for TAMC, three models were developed and used to project, for FY04 through FY10, a financial analysis using historical data. The analysis indicated purchasing radiation therapy services, i.e., outsourcing this care would produce a cost avoidance of $442,683 to $604, 619, depending upon model comparison. However, the financial data alone is insufficient to determine the optimal solution. Qualitative factors were analyzed using a relative values decision matrix. Evaluation criteria consisted of cost, access, perceived quality, measurable quality, and political views. These criteria were ranked and weighted. A threats, opportunities, weaknesses, and strengths matrix was then used to establish the strategic direction. Based on the results of this analysis, it is recommended that TAMC continue to provide radiation therapy services in-house and enhance those services through purchase of intensity-modulated radiation therapy technology.

20050173170 Great Plains Regional Medical Command, Fort Sam Houston, TX USA A Feasibility Study on the Implementation of Teleophthalmology in the Medical Treatment Facilities in the Great Plains Regional Medical Command Dixon, Margaret L.; Jun. 2004; 99 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432280; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) With the ever increasing costs of health care today finding, testing, and, if found workable, utilizing a new technology is an absolute must. Teleophthalmology is just such a technology. This service will greatly benefit the present and growing diabetic population. One of the major complications of diabetes is diabetic retinopathy, which eventually causes blindness. The effects of diabetic retinopathy can be limited if early and effective treatment is provided. The key to early intervention is an annual eye exam. The compliance rate for annual eye exams for Great Plains Regional Medical Command is less than the 90% required to meet HEDIS as well as our own Clinical Practice Guideline metric. Teleophthalmology is a way to meet the needs of the patient for an eye exam without a second visit to the hospital. Utilizing a digital ophthalmic camera allows the patient’s pupils to be dilated, the films obtained and sent for review by an ophthalmologist during their routine primary care visit. This decreases the hassle factor for the patient, it frees up ophthalmology clinic visits held for routine diabetic eye exams, and best utilizes the limited number of ophthalmology providers available in the region.

20050173175 RAND Corp., Santa Monica, CA USA Determinants of Dispensing Location in the TRICARE Senior Pharmacy Program Malkin, Jesse D.; Joyce, Geoffrey; Pace, Jennifer; Croghan, Thomas; Jan. 2005; 94 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DASW01-C-01-0004 Report No.(s): AD-A432290; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A05, Hardcopy The MHS serves approximately 8.6 million eligible beneficiaries, including active-duty military personnel and their family members (dependents), retired military personnel and their dependents, and surviving dependents of deceased military personnel. TRICARE, the program that administers health care for the DoD, includes a pharmacy benefit that provides coverage for virtually all U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved prescription medications. Prior to fiscal year (FY) 2001, elderly military retirees and their dependents who wished to use their military benefits to fill a prescription could do so only at a MTF outpatient pharmacy; However, some drugs that were frequently prescribed by civilian providers were not always available at MTFs because of formulary restrictions. As of FY 2001, DoD introduced a new program for elderly military retirees and their dependents, entitled TRICARE Senior Rx (TSRx). TSRx beneficiaries can now fill their prescriptions at any of four points of service: (1) outpatient pharmacies at MTFs; (2) the TRICARE Mail Order Pharmacy (TMOP), 3 currently administered by Express Scripts Inc.; (3) retail pharmacies contracted by regional TRICARE contractors (referred to as ‘network’ pharmacies); and (4) non-network retail pharmacies. The TMOP dispenses drugs for chronic conditions. Although it cannot dispense a few drugs, such as atorvastatin, without proof of medical necessity the overwhelming majority of drugs for chronic conditions are available. Retail pharmacies have completely open formularies: TRICARE reimburses them for all prescriptions except those specifically excluded from TRICARE coverage.

178 20050173176 RAND Corp., Santa Monica, CA USA Pharmacy Use and Costs in Employer-Provided Health Plans. Insights for TRICARE Benefit Design from the Private Sector Joyce, Geoggrey; Malkin, Jesse D.; Pace, Jennifer; Jan. 2005; 94 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DASW01-C-01-0004 Report No.(s): AD-A432298; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A05, Hardcopy The military health system (MHS) has approximately 8.6 million eligible beneficiaries, including active-duty military personnel and their family members, retired military personnel and their family members, and surviving family members of deceased military personnel. In 2002, the Department of Defense (DoD) spent about $3 billion on outpatient pharmacy benefits. Like the private health care sector, the MHS has experienced a rapid growth in pharmaceutical expenditures. At the request of DoD, the RAND Corporation has undertaken two studies designed to help DoD shape their pharmacy benefit policy to control costs. The U.S. Congress has identified the TRICARE pharmacy benefit as an area for reform. Section 701 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2000 requires the Secretary of Defense to establish an effective, efficient, and integrated pharmacy benefits program. As part of a program redesign effort, which will result in the establishment of a Uniform Formulary (UF), the DoD is considering moving from a two-tiered copayment system to a three-tiered copayment system, which will increase the copayment for some classes and brands of medications. It is hoped that this move will give providers (acting in the interest of their patients) an incentive to prescribe lower-tier, less-costly options. To assist the DoD in assessing the potential implications of this policy change, RAND used an existing data resource to examine how beneficiaries with private drug coverage responded to similar changes in pharmacy benefits. The findings from this analysis, presented in this report, can inform the DoD of the potential costs and benefits of adopting the proposed Uniform Formulary.

Three critical processes or phases were used to assure validity in the initial design of this tool. After a thorough literature review, an initial template was developed with assistance from the Executive Officer (XO) and another instructor assisted in staffing this tool through the ATTC. The second phase was to have the Survey Administrator, AMEDD C&S, automate and modify the survey to comply with Center and School training feedback objectives and the Army Surgeon General’s Balanced Scorecard. Finally, the tool went through a second audit conducted by the ATTC and was piloted for content through the 801st FST at Fort Campbell. The objective of developing a solid instrument for the ATTC was completed during the course of this project. Ultimately, utilizing this tool to gather feedback will be essential to evaluate the Army’s current trauma training program and enhancing the quality of care we deliver on the battlefield.

20050173214 Delaware Univ., Newark, DE USA Mucin (MUC1) Expression and Function in Prostate Cancer Cells Carson, Daniel D.; Mar. 2004; 24 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-00-1-0525 Report No.(s): AD-A432401; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Mucin glycoproteins are highly expressed by many tumors, reduce normal cell-cell and cell-extracellular matrix adhesion and protect cancer cells from attack by the immune system. Mucin expression not only increases, but also changes from a restricted pattern of apical expression to a general distribution over the entire cell surface. In this regard, conversion of prostate epithelium from a highly-organized, growth-controlled phenotype to a highly proliferative, metastatic phenotype is associated with loss of cell polarity. Very few studies been performed on mucin expression by prostate cancer cells. MUC1 is a large molecular weight, type I transmembrane mucin glycoprotein expressed by normal and malignant prostate epithelium. High

179 level cell surface expression, reported immunosupressive activities of its released ectodomain, and antiadhesive properties all contribute to this mucin’s ability to protect and promote tumor cell growth and survival. Recent observations using human breast cancer cell lines indicate that MUC1 can associate with the intracellular signal transducing molecules, beta-catenin and GRB-2. Recent studies from the PI’s lab demonstrate that cytokines, including interferon-gamma, markedly stimulate MUC1 gene expression. Primary prostate tumors are often found in the vicinity of cytokine producing cells, and commonly metastasize to bone marrow, a rich source of these same cytokines.

20050173216 University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA USA Development of Quantum Dot Probes for Near-Infrared Fluorescence Imaging of Breast Cancer Angiogenesis Chen, Xiaoyuan; Sep. 2004; 23 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-03-1-0752 Report No.(s): AD-A432403; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy The overall objective of this proposal is to develop cyclic RGD peptide conjugated biocompatible quantum dot nanoparticles for near-infrared fluorescence imaging of breast cancer angiogenesis. The two hypotheses to be tested are that: 1) the integrin alpha(v)beta(3) antagonist, when conjugated with semiconductor nanocrystals, will not change the fluorescent properties of the QDs significantly; and 2) the QD-based breast cancer angiogenesis probes are specific enough to recognize the integrin receptor and bright enough for effective detection in preclinical animal models. Specific Aim 1: to prepare water-soluble QD-RGD conjugates and characterize the probes in vitro. Specific Aim 2: to assess the tumor targeting efficacy of QD-RGD in breast cancer model. Major Findings: Although biocompatible quantum dots in theory is superior to organic dyes for long-term, multi-target and highly sensitive imaging, however, the current surface coating techniques do not offer enough stability of QDs in biological medium. On the other hand, NIR fluorescent dyes labeled RGD peptides demonstrated highly sensitive and semi-quantitative NIR fluorescence images for tumor detection in preclinical xenograft models. This non-invasive optical imaging approach provides the opportunity for rapid and cost-effective studies before more costly radionuclide-based imaging studies.

To test if specific mutations of the tumor suppressor gene, p53, that occur in CaP cause disease progression, we generated cell lines from the human LNCaP cell line that stably express normal or mutant p53. Purpose: To test whether p53 mutations affect establishment/growth of experimentally-induced CaP in the bone. Score: LNCaP cell lines were tested in tissue culture for factors that alter normal bone remodeling and angiogenesis and were implanted in immuno-incompetent mice to analyze their ability to form tumors and to spread to the bone. Results/ Progress: p53-mutant CaP cells modulated osteoclastogenesis and affected osteoblast proliferation; different p53 mutations showed differentiation stage-dependent effects. Osteoblasts also stimulated the growth of p53 mutant CaP cells, suggesting that osteoblast-CaP interactions lead to new bone formation and allow CaP to establish in bone. When implanted in mice, some p53 mutant CaP cells inhibited angiogenesis, and were cytotoxic to bone marrow derived endothelial cells in vitro. We aim to identify the molecules responsible for these effects. Significance: Further studies will explain how specific mutations of p53 found in patients impact on progression, and could allow development of new therapeutic strategies.

180 My research is focused on the BRCA2 protein, whose mutations have been implicated in the development of breast, ovarian, male breast, prostate, pancreatic cancers and Fanconi anemia. It is intended to elucidate some of the biological functions of BRCA2 and/or regulation of its in vivo function through generation/utilization of new reagents and identification of new BRCA2 interacting proteins. During this second year of grant support, I was able to identify a completely novel protein, named CLB2 in this study, as a major physiological partner of BRCA2. I discovered that CLB2 is a chromatin bound protein and is required for BRCA2’s chromatin binding. In light of these findings, it is attempting to speculate that disruption of CLB2 function would lead to significant impairment of BRCA2’s tumor suppressor function realized at least in a large part through its DNA recombination/repair activity which presumably requires its docking to the chromatin.

Since previous members of the LIM only (LMO) gene family are oncogenes, we hypothesized that LMO4 may play roles in mammary gland development and cancer. We have now shown that expression of LMO4 correlates with proliferation, and in transgenic mice we shrewd that dominant-negative LMO4 inhibits lobuloalveolar development, demonstrating that LMO4 plays roles in proliferation and/or invasion of breast epithelial cells. Because these cellular features are associated with breast carcinogenesis and because LMO4 is overexpressed in a subset of breast cancers, our studies implicate LMO4 as a possible oncogene in breast cancer. In addition, we found that the LMO4 gene is activated by the Her2/Neu receptor in breast cancer cells, providing further linkage to breast cancer. In biochemical assays we showed that LMO4 may act by associating with the GATA3 transcription factor, also expressed in mammary epithelial cells. We have also created stable breast cancer cell lines in which we can induce expression of LMO4 and Clim2. With this method, we have identified several target genes of LMO4, one of which is Bone Morphogenic Protein 7 (BMP-7) , which can affect survival of breast cancer cells by regulating apoptosis. In summary, we have defined a role for a new gene, LMO4, in mammary epithelial cell proliferation in normal development and in breast cancer cells, DTIC Breast; Cancer; Functional Analysis; Mammary Glands; Proteins

SCOPE: To show that telomere erosion observed in prostatic epithelium may involve DNA damage response/repair pathways at the onset of preneoplasia (HPIN) and cancer in me n. MAJ0R FINDINGS: Our working hypothesis is that cells that undergo telomere loss as part of the normal aging process in the prostate are more susceptible to undergo chromosome end-fusion thus triggering genomic instability. Our initial progress showed that loss of telomere length occurred in preneoplastic HPIN lesions that were located close to small, localized microfoci of newly diagnosed prostate cancer. We have optimized whole genome and RNA amplification techniques and shown that there is high fidelity and reproducibility of dissected amplified PCR product. RESULTS: The first phase of gene expression profiling in HPIN, and cancer foci using repair/damage response array has been successfully performed. We are developing topographical maps of telomere bass, genomic instability and concomitant changes in gene expression. SIGNIFICANCE: These results will form the first direct link between telomere-dependent alteration, DNA repair and damage response signaling in prostate cancer.

However, we propose that methylation of the promoter of tumor suppressor genes, such as BRCA1, may also occur in the germ-line. Germ-line inheritance of this epigenetic silent state would therefore contribute to familial breast cancer. In this study we aimed to address if methylation of the tumor suppressor gene BRCA1 is inherited through the germ-line and is associated with the hereditary breast cancer. We developed a high-throughput sensitive real-time methylation assay that allowed us to screen for BRCA1 methylated DNA. We used this assay to screen for BRCA1 methylation from DNA isolated from archival blood and biopsy samples of women that have a family history of breast cancer but have no defined BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations.

In the 12 month period covered by this report, I have successfully generated HLA-A*0201-HER-2/neu369-377 complexes, and have isolated two scFv fragment clones that recognize this complex. In addition, I have started to analyze the expression levels of antigen processing machinery (APM) components, HLA class I antigens and beta2m in several breast carcinoma cell lines. This analysis takes advantage of the availability of a wide panel of mAb to these antigens that several investigators in our laboratory, including myself, have developed and characterized. Collectively, the results we have obtained strongly support our future analysis to correlate the expression levels of APM components, HLA class I antigens, beta2m and HER-2/neu with the levels of HLA-A*0201-HER- 2/neu369-377 complexes on breast carcinoma cells and lesions. The information derived from these studies is expected to contribute to our knowledge of the variables that influence the levels of HLA class I antigen-TAA derived peptide complex expression on breast carcinoma cells.

20050173232 Pittsburgh Univ., Pittsburgh, PA USA Hormonal Determinants of Mammographic Density Simpson, Jennifer K.; Modugno, Francesmary; Weissfeld, Joel L.; Kuller, Lewis; , Victor; Costantino, Joseph P.; Aug. 2004; 13 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-02-1-0553 Report No.(s): AD-A432434; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Hormone Replacement Therapy (HRT) has been shown to increase breast cancer risk as well as to increase breast density. Breast density, a reflection of the histologic composition of the breast, is one factor shown to affect mammographic sensitivity and specificity, and it is predictive of breast cancer risk. Thus, the use of HRT, through its effect on breast density, may compromise the well-established reduction in mortality gained by mammographic screening. However, not all women on HRT will experience an increase in breast density. We propose a novel hypothesis to explain in part the individual variability in breast density seen among women on HRT: differences in breast density are associated with differences in estrogen metabolism, and this association may be attenuated by individual factors such as body mass index and HRT regimen. Our work and the work of others provide compelling evidence to support this hypothesis. To date 50 cases and 180 healthy postmenopausal women have been enrolled in this study.

The specific aims were to analyze the relation of breast density and estrogen levels in urine and serum with the presence of variant alleles in CYP17, COMT, CYP1A1, CYP1A2, and CYP1B1, to describe ethnic differences in urinary excretion levels of estrogen, and to explore the association of breast density with estrogen levels. Mammograms for 328 women were assessed for breast density using a computer-assisted method. The genes were analyzed for polymorphisms using PCR/RFLP methods and estrogens and their metabolites were measured by radioimmunoassay. We found that women carrying the COMT and CYP1A2 variant alleles had lower mammographic densities than women carrying the common alleles. The CYP1A2 C allele was also significantly associated with lower serum estradiol levels and a lower 2OHE1/ 16alpha-OHE1 ratio. Total urinary hormone excretion, androgens, 2-OHE1, and the 2/16alpha-OHE1 ratio were significantly lower in women of Asian ancestry than in Caucasians, but breast density was higher among women of Asian ancestry due to their relatively small breast size. Estrogens and their metabolites measured in the urine of premenopausal women were not associated with mammographic densities. However, contrary to the initial hypothesis, the 2-OHE1/16alpha-OHE1 ratio was directly related with mammographic densities.

20050173236 Fox Chase Cancer Center, Philadelphia, PA USA Hierarchical Nonlinear Mixed Effect Modeling: Defining Post-radiation Therapy Relapse in Prostate Cancer Patients Hanlon, Alexandra L.; Jul. 2004; 107 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0056 Report No.(s): AD-A432448; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A06, Hardcopy The research accomplished and described here validates and extends a model to classify prostate cancer patients according to disease relapse following definitive radiation therapy. The original model was developed within a hierarchical nonlinear mixed effect modeling framework with likelihood based estimation incorporating the EM algorithm. The model was tested statistically using a subset of 35 patients with relatively homogenous tumor and treatment characteristics. The research described in this report successfully applied the methodology to a larger population of men (\g600 patients) representing all stages of disease via the modeling of covariates, including tumor differentiation, stage, and pre-treatment PSA. The success of the modeling was dependent upon a Bayesian framework with Markov chain Monte Carlo methodology for estimating mixture distribution parameters. Poor mixing and slow convergence were encountered and required various re- parameterizations and creative initialization techniques. The analysis includes an assessment of predictors of post-nadir rise, as salvage therapy strategies are often designed around the rate of increase in PSA levels post-nadir, as well as an analysis of predictors of initial decline and its relationship to outcome. The modeling was compared to biochemical classification using a clinical definition of relapse and also to clinical results as obtained from imaging and/or biopsy.

20050173237 California Univ., Berkeley, CA USA Non-Invasive Imaging of In Vivo Breast Cancer Tissue Utilizing Metabolically Incorporated Unnatural Sugars Bertozzi, Carolyn R.; Aug. 2004; 9 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-03-1-0548 Report No.(s): AD-A432449; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy Cancer cells have long been known to express glycosylation patterns that are different from those found on normal cells from the same tissue. Many tumor-specific carbohydrate antigens possess the monosaccharide sialic acid, and as a consequence, many tumor cells express high levels of sialic acid compared to normal cells. Thus, any agent that targets sialic acid specifically could be used for tumor targeting. Preliminary work on this project has shown that unnatural sialic acids can be introduced onto tumor cells metabolically by feeding the cells unnatural analogs of their biosynthetic precursors. The unnatural analogs can include reactive functional groups capable of covalent reaction with exogenous probes. For example, an azide-functionalized analog of Nacetylmannosamine is converted by tumor cells to the corresponding sialic acid, and the azide can be covalently reacted on the cell surface with triarylphosphine probes in vivo. The objective of this project is to

183 develop a novel breast cancer targeting method that exploits the selective chemical reactivity of unnatural sialic acids for delivery of imaging reagents. The immediate application is a new method for non-invasive detection and diagnosis of cancer. Longer-term applications include targeted anti-cancer drugs and vaccines.

Fortunately, this disease is no longer a ‘black box’ that can only be studied empirically. Recent advances in understanding of normal mammary development and carcinogenic processes have identified a number of specific genes and processes that are dysregulated in breast cancer. This means that research on breast cancer has finally advanced to the stage where a concentrated effort in translational research will yield great strides in detection, diagnosis, and treatment. The Molecular Medicine graduate training program at Yale was recently developed to address these issues. This program was developed to offer an interdisciplinary course of study that will foster an integrated view of disease, built upon a rigorous foundation of basic sciences. The emphasis on disease mechanisms and translational research is unique to Molecular Medicine, and distinguishes it from other pre-doctoral programs at Yale. The Predoctoral Training Program in Breast Cancer Research will recruit individuals interested in careers in breast cancer research to the Molecular Medicine Program, provide specialist training in breast cancer-specific areas, and integrate their training experience with scientists and clinicians investigating breast cancer at Yale.

Each trainee has made notable progress as evidenced by publications and presentations at national meetings. Significant strides have been made within the scope of the original specific aims in the following research areas: therapeutic approaches for breast cancer through regulation of oncogene and tumor suppressor gene expression, and control of signal transduction and apoptosis; use of animals to understand the biology of breast cancer and to provide models for preclinical therapeutic and preventive studies; and The basis biology of breast cancer. The goal of the training program is to further the successful training of fellows who will develop research programs of their own which continue to tackle problems of breast cancer. Overall, it is a very successful program as evident from the numerous publications in peer-reviewed journals (listed in APPENDIX 4).

Ipl1p is required for chromosome biorientation and the spindle checkpoint. Previous work done in the Biggins laboratory uncovered new functions for Ipl1p in spindle disassembly and spindle orientation. Ipl1p localizes to the spindle midzone during anaphase and tracks the plus ends of the depolymerizing spindle MTs. Cells lacking Kip3p, a MT destabilizing kinesin, are delayed in spindle breakdown similar to Ipl1 mutants. It is possible that Ipl1p regulates spindle breakdown by directly regulating Kip3 activity. We found that Kip3p

184 is phosphorylated by Ipl1p in vitro and is a phospho-protein in vivo. Mutating one of the Ipl1p consensus sites in Kip3p generates a spindle disassembly delay similar to ipl1 and kip3DELTA mutants. We are currently testing whether the Kip3p is phosphorylated by Ipl1p in vivo. In addition we have uncovered a new role for Ipl1p in spindle assembly that is independent of its other functions.

The study will identify areas of concern within the Gastroenterology (GI) clinic that result in the loss of Prime patients to the contractor, determine if those losses are appropriate, and recommend possible solutions and better business practices. The study analyzed data involving a five-step process that includes evaluating resource allocation and productivity, referral tracking and variation, provider profiling, appointment utilization / template management, and costs. Based on this study, the clinic should increase bookable hours for staff providers from six to seven hours. The clinic should also continue with the revised referral / disengagement process currently in place and continue to provide education and training to primary care providers. Through analysis of in-house and network costs, 13 procedures and diagnoses were identified that should be either performed in-house or referred to the network that result in a cost savings to the GI clinic of over $90,000. By referring these procedures to the network, access and capacity will be greatly improved. DTIC Cost Effectiveness; Diseases; Gastrointestinal System; Resources Management

The work during this reporting period included analysis of locomotor activity (LA) and autonomic control of heart rate (HR), as well as the metabolism of acetylcholine (ACh) and choline (Ch), at 2, 4 and 16 weeks after exposure to the ChE inhibitors. HR, derived from electrocardiogram, and LA were studied by radiotelemetry of animals in their home cages 24 hrs a day, during one week. ChE inhibitors decreased HR and enhanced HR variability 2 weeks post-treatment, but the effects did not persist until later times. No treatment-related changes in LA were found. The expected regional variations in ACh, ACh turnover, and D4Ch, similar to the distribution of other cholinergic markers, or related to characteristics of the blood-brain barrier were found, but ACh and Ch contents were altered only at two weeks post-treatment. No treatment-related effects were detected in ACh turnover. In conclusion, changes in the variables under study were mainly observed 2 weeks after treatment but failed to persist until later intervals. Thus, these experiments do not support the hypothesis that exposure to low levels of cholinesterase inhibitors could induce persistent or delayed effects in control of heart rate and locomotion or cholinergic metabolism.

185 War veterans’ health concerns. No widely accepted case definition for Gulf War illness exists and controversy persists about whether Gulf War veterans symptoms ‘should be considered primarily a part of a general phenomenon that occurs in every war or a consequence of events and exposures unique to the Gulf War’ (Steele, 2001, p. 406). In an effort to further elucidate the nature of ill-health among Gulf War veterans, we conducted a latent class analysis of symptoms reported in the Tenth Anniversary Gulf War Veterans Health Study, a national population-based survey of U.S. Gulf War veterans. Specifically, we sought to identify subgroups of Gulf War veterans with distinct patterns of symptoms and to determine if such subgroups could be distinguished with respect to Gulf War exposures and probable posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). Additionally, we sought to examine the functional consequences of specific patterns of ill-health and probable PTSD ten years after the Persian Gulf War.

The average level of OHI present in the sample analyzed was 31.9 percent. OHI was regressed upon predictor variables consisting of zip code, age group, beneficiary category, TRICARE Prime enrollment, average number of prescription drugs required per month, and percentage of time the MTF is used for prescription drug needs. Multiple linear regression results indicated a statistically significant relationship in the prediction of having OHI, with R2 = .192, F (13, 428) = 7.829, p \h.0001. Further hypothesis tests with hierarchical multiple regression analyses indicated that all predictor variables made substantive unique contributions to having OHI with the exceptions of the number of drugs per required per month and the zip code to the beneficiaries’ place of residence. The results of the OHI survey were used to conduct an abbreviated business case analysis. With complete OHI information, third party collections for filling civilian prescriptions alone could conservatively be increased from $3,490 to $403,146 annually.

The statistical analysis of the first 65 cases (including 8 cases of cancers and 57 cases of benign lesions) shows strong correlation between the total hemoglobin concentration and malignance. There is about two-fold increase in the total hemoglobin concentration for cancers compared with the typical values for benign lesions. This agrees with our hypothesis that optically available parameters can significantly improve the accuracy of breast cancer detection. To further improve the performance of optical imaging system, we are pursuing the time-resolved method. We have developed a time-resolved diffusive optical tomography system via a novel spread spectrum approach. A low power (%5 mW) laser diode modulated with pseudo-random bit sequences replaces the short pulse laser used in conventional time-resolved optical systems, while the time-resolved

187 transmittance is retrieved by correlating the detected signal with the stimulation sequence. Temporal point spread functions of diffusive light propagating through a turbid medium have been measured with remarkably low noise levels. 2-dimensional scanning imaging experiments were performed to demonstrate the great potential of this new imaging technique. Sub-nanosecond temporal resolution (approx. 0.9 ns) has been achieved. DTIC Cancer; Imaging Techniques; Ultrasonics

At the time of our most recent annual progress report, we had succeeded in opening additional research sites aimed at increasing participation by patients from underserved populations, and initiating new, investigator-initiated clinical trials. Over the last year of support, the clinical trials network continued to expand and additional breast cancer clinical trials were initiated. Due to a variety of challenges being faced at most academic institutions, over the last two years accrual to clinical trials of patients with cancers other than breast cancer within the UCLA-CORN has decreased. Due to the enhanced support provided through this proposal, we were able to sustain our annual growth in accrual to breast cancer studies. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Clinical Medicine; Mammary Glands

20050173275 Baylor Coll. of Medicine, Houston, TX USA Identification of Signaling Proteins the Modulate Androgen Receptor Activity Songyang, Zhou; Nov. 2004; 8 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0022 Report No.(s): AD-A432546; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy Androgens and the androgen receptor (AR) play a critical role in the development and progression of prostate cancers. The majority of prostate cancers initially respond to endocrine treatment (androgen dependent), but eventually become androgen independent that prove fatal. It appears that a functionally active AR may contribute to the progression of androgen-independent prostate cancers. Understanding the signaling pathways that regulate androgen-dependent and - independent activation of AR mediated transcription would provide valuable information for finding an ultimate cure for this disease. We have proposed to identify the signaling components that regulate AR activity using a novel retrovirus- mediated genetic system, and to understand the mechanism of how the identified factors control AR activity. To this end, we have established and optimized our retrovirus-mediated genetic screen approach. The retroviral vectors to be used have been improved which will allow high-efficiency mutagenesis and ease of manipulation and analysis. We have also made significant progress towards optimizing our screening strategies and establishing a suitable cell line for the genetic screen. With these tools in hand, we are in the process of performing the genome wide genetic screen to identify genes that are important for androgen receptor signaling and study how they may contribute to the progression of prostate cancers.

MMTV Her2/neu mice, which

188 spontaneously develop mammary tumors were treated with combinations of cytoxan, GM-CSF and surgery. Flow cytometry was used to evaluate blood (B), lymph nodal tissue (LN), and splenocytes (S) for evidence of monocyte differentiation to dendritic cells (DC). Both tumor naive mice and mice with spontaneous tumor growth were evaluated. With this study we were able to identify a subpopulation of monocytic cells with characteristics consistent with partial differentiation to dendritic cells using the cell surface markers CD11C, MHC II, CD86/CD40, CD80, and Ly6c. While this study was unable to demonstrate alteration of the cell surface markers of the monocytic cell populations in a manner consistent with dendritic cell differentiation using GM-CSF or cytoxan, this study suggests that the presence of tumor itself may alter the CD40 and MHC II level in the spleen and that the presence of tumor itself may lead to early differentiation of the dendritic cell population in the spleen.

In addition, it is generally accepted that the upregulation of endothelial cell adhesion molecules is involved in the formation of blood-borne metastasis. Among different adhesion molecules, evidence indicates that intracellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1) may play a critical role in breast cancer metastatic formation. Our studies have demonstrated that dietary fatty acids can exert highly specific effects on NF-kB activation and expression of adhesion molecules in human endothelial cells. In addition, we indicated that linoleic acid induces ICAM-1 and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) expression through the activation of NF-kB. More importantly, because the ability of cancer cells to interact with the endothelium appears to be a prerequisite for the potential of distant metastasis and because ICAM-1 and VCAM-1 are considered to be a crucial adhesion molecule in this process, the present study may have significant therapeutic implications in developing a novel strategy against cancer metastasis.

20050173278 Northwestern Univ., Evanston, IL USA Suppressive Role of Androgen-Response Gene Calreticulin in Prostate Cancer Wang, Zhou; Dec. 2004; 18 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0088 Report No.(s): AD-A432551; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Androgens are intimately associated with prostate cancer progression. One of the androgen-response genes encodes calreticulin, a highly conserved protein with demonstrated functions in intracellular Ca++ homeostasis, cell adhesion, chaperoning, and gene expression. Our studies showed that calreticulin overexpression is suppressive to tumor growth and metastasis of prostate cancer cells in orthotopic and subcutaneous xenograft tumor models and calreticulin expression is down-regulated in human prostate tumor specimens. Thus, down-regulation of calreticulin in clinical prostate cancer specimens is an important step in prostate cancer progression. Our observations argue that part of androgen-induced gene expression program, such as calreticulin, is inactivated in the progression of prostate cancer, which represents a new concept in prostate cancer biology. In the present study, we have shown that the proline-rich P-domain, which is thought to have lectin-like chaperoning activity, is responsible for the suppression of prostate tumor growth. Our results provide strong basis for further exploring the mechanism by which calreticulin suppresses prostate tumor progression. DTIC Cancer; Hormones; Males; Prostate Gland; Retarding; Suppressors

189 growth inhibitory and cell-differentiating actions in breast cancer cells. Based on our findings in vitro and in vivo, we hypothesized that 1 alpha(OH)D5 (D5), when administered to women with breast cancer, will induce differentiation of dedifferentiated cells and thereby prevent progression of malignancy. In 1999-2000, we completed preclinical studies in rats, showing that D5 has no serious toxicity; high doses led to a hypercalcemic effect, which was reversible. In vitro studies showed that D5 has no effect on normal breast epithelial cells but induces apoptosis in breast cancer and showed apoptotic effect in fibroadenomas. In 2000-2001, under GMP, we completed preclinical toxicity studies in dogs and completed synthesis of 1 alpha(OH)D5. In vitro studies suggested that D5 has no effect on normal breast tissues. In 2001-2002, in vitro studies showed D5 to have no effect of cell proliferation , cell death, or differentiation markers (casein) in nonmalignant breast epithelial cells. In 2002-2003, in vitro studies suggested a differential effect of D5 on ER+ vs. ER- cells and that D5’s action may be mediated, in part, by VDR. Clinical trial protocols were updated for both the UIC IRB and FDA. In 2003-2004, the clinical protocol was updated and approved by the UIC IRB, and Lutheran General Hospital was removed from the protocol. Currently, all of the preclinical toxicology and pharmacology studies have been completed and an ND application has been submitted to the FDA. The FDA has asked for some additional.

20050173283 Naval Health Research Center, San Diego, CA USA A Comparison of the Post-Deployment Hospitalization Experience of US military Personnel Following Service in the 1991 Gulf War, Southwest Asia After the Gulf War, and Bosnia Smith, Besa; Smith, Tyler C.; Ryan, Margaret A.; Gray, Gregory C.; Jul. 2004; 26 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432558; NHRC-04-25; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Much attention has been given to the impact of deployment upon the health of veterans from the first Gulf War. While differences in self-reported symptoms have been common, no specific exposures have been implicated. Some have suggested that stress from deployment is the chief cause for multi-symptom conditions among 1991 Gulf War veterans. We sought to examine the impact of large military deployments upon hospitalization experience. Hospitalization records from October 1,1988, through December 31,2000, were examined for all active-duty personnel deployed exclusively to the Gulf War, Southwest Asia, or Bosnia. Cox’s hazard modeling was used to model time until first post deployment hospitalization, separation from active duty, or December 31, 2000, whichever occurred first, while controlling for influential covariates and temporal changes. In comparison with Gulf War veterans (n = 455,465), personnel deployed to Southwest Asia after the Gulf War (n = 249,047) were at a slight increased risk of hospitalization (hazard ratio = 1.05; 95% confidence interval: 1.02,1. 08). However, personnel deployed to Bosnia (n = 44,341) were at decreased risk for any cause hospitalization (HR = 0.69; 95% CI: 0.66, 0.72). While these findings do not fully explain the complexity of post deployment health experiences, they do not support the theory of a unique illness in 1991 Gulf War veterans.

Androgen dependent LNCaP prostate cancer cells are sensitive to apoptosis induced by galectin-l, a human lectin that is abundant in prostate stroma. In contrast, androgen independent LNCaP, DU145 and PC-3 cells are resistant to galectin-l induced death and express galectin-l on the cell surface. Galectin-l binds to specific saccharide ligands on LNCaP cells to trigger cell death; susceptibility to galectin-1 requires 0-linked glycans on glycoproteins, while N-glycans are not required for galectin-l induced cell death. Galecti-l resistance in androgen independent LNCaP cells correlates with decreased expression of a specific glycosyltransferase, C2GnT, that creates 0-glycan ligands recognized by galectin-l. Blocking Oglycan elongation by expressing a competing glycosyltransferase, ST3Gal I, renders LNCaP cells resistant to galectin-l death. Galectin-1 resistant DU145 and PC-3 cells can kill adherent T cells via cell surface gal-1. Moreover, PC-3 cells secrete a factor that up-regulates gal-1 expression by endothelial cells, which then can kill adherent T cells. Thus, enhancing galectin-1 prostate cancer cell death may allow novel therapeutic approaches to manipulate tumor cell glycosylation to overcome tumor cell resistance to apoptosis and to prevent tumor evasion of the immune response.

The long-term goal of this program is to improve suicide prevention by identifying and modifying military-specific risk factors. The DONSIR significantly improves the capability of the DON to track and analyze data on completed suicides. It provides the DON with consistent data that can be compared across both the USN and the USMC. It establishes baselines for suicide rates and suicide event characteristics that can be used to track trends over time. It also evaluates military-specific correlates of suicide, which cannot be evaluated using civilian, academic literature. This is the fourth annual report on the DONSIR. This report presents findings from the first 4 years of data collected since the program was initiated in 1999 and summarizes the conclusions and recommendations that can be drawn based on the results to date.

Several published equations for estimating the standard resting metabolic rate (RMRS), defined as the metabolic rate in the morning after an overnight fast, with the subject at rest in a thermoneutral environment in a supine position, were also evaluated. A series of comparison data sets of individual data from results published in the literature, in which obese subjects and subjects younger than 18 and older than 55 yrs, were eliminated. A comparison between estimated RMRS and RMRS values from the comparison data set showed that equations developed by Mifflin and coworkers in 1990 fit the data the best. It was determined that once inherent differences in the subject populations used to develop and test the equations were considered, that the equations developed by differences in the subject populations used to develop and test the equations were considered, that the equations developed by Schofield (1985) for the World Health Organization, provided the best fit to the data. From linear regression analyses on the comparison data set, it was found that a combination of the estimated lean body mass (computed

Since fall of 2001, WRAMC was received soldiers injured in support of both Operation Enduring Freedom (GEE) in Afghanistan and Operation Iraqi Freedom (OIE), the two primary operations in the USA Global War on Terrorism (GWOT) This study was designed to review the composition of initial GWOT inpatient casualties received at WRAMC and to explore the costs associated with the care provided. These results will assist planners in understanding appropriate levels of resources needed to support future contingency operations. Cross-sectional data on primary diagnosis-related group (DRG) and DRG ‘cost’ were collected for 372 GWOT inpatients admitted to WRAMC in FY03.

20050173342 Moncrief Army Community Hospital, Fort Jackson, SC USA Analysis of Patient Cycle Times at the Urgent Care Clinic at Moncrief Army Community Hospital Chavez, Jose L.; Jun. 2004; 53 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432681; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This study evaluated the patient processing system at the Urgent Care Clinic at Moncrief Army Community Hospital, Fort Jackson, SC to assess its timeliness and efficiency. Analysis of patient cycle times at two separate time intervals made it possible to identify the different time periods and assess the patient’s access to care. A questionnaire was used to evaluate the effects of changes in this process. Although overall wait and access to care improved (p \h .05), no significant improvement in overall satisfaction was found between the two time intervals. Written patient comments indicated a greater concern for personal treatment experienced rather than access time to receive care. This study underscores the difficulties in identifying and meeting patient satisfaction and demand. DTIC Clinical Medicine; Hospitals; Medical Services; Patients

The goal of this research is to identify genes important in breast cancer due to their association with amplified centrosomes, We determined that centrosomes are amplified prior to invasion and amplification is maintained during progression. We identified candidate genes for further investigation. Last year, we 1) measured chromosomal instability in tumors for which we have gene expression and centrosome amplification data, 2) analyzed the relationships between lymph node and estrogen receptor status, chromosomal instability and centrosome amplification, and 3) developed a collaborative study to look at centrosome amplification, chromosomal instability, and gene expression in a rat model of estrogen-induced mammary cancer. During this last reporting period we 1) demonstrated that expression of Aurora-A, a centrosome-associated kinase, correlates to Nottingham Prognostic Index in human breast tumors, 2) demonstrated that estrogen exposure leads to centrosome amplification and aurora-A over-expression prior to invasion in a rat mammary tumor model, and 3) developed a collaboration to study the effects of cyclin D1 overexpression in a mouse model and demonstrated that cyclin D1 induces centrosome amplification and aneuploidy.

20050173360 Academy of Health Sciences (Army), Fort Sam Houston, TX USA Graduate Management Project: Optimizing Cardiology and Radiology Services at Evans Army Community Hospital Geolingo, Harld J.; Jan. 2004; 85 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432710; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) During fiscal years 2003 and 2004, Evans Army Community Hospital (EACH), Port Carson, Colorado, diligently prepared itself to meet the operating challenges under the new TRICARE contracts. As part of EACH’s preparation efforts, this study provides an optimization analysis of cardiology and radiology services, utilizing the business case analysis process. The results of this study indicate that a recapture opportunity exist by providing in-house non-invasive echocardiograph services, which would yield a 36-month return on investment (ROI) of $210,000. Additionally, the potential for an 80 percent reduction in radiology purchased care can be realized, provided EACH procures a magnetic resonance imaging device, sustains current staffing levels, and institutes strict referral management under the new TRICARE contracts. Furthermore, diagnostic and therapeutic cardiology product lines possessed no recapture opportunity, as recapture efforts would yield an annual net loss exceeding $500,000. The primary cost savings effort under these cardiology product lines would be to negotiate a discounted reimbursement rate with the Veteran’s Administration (VA) . Engaging in these optimizing efforts will increase EACH’s ability to operate within budgetary limits, and more importantly provide the best health care delivery opt ions to all beneficiaries to whom EACH serves.

The open access appointment system, based upon a methodology of doing today’s work today, will allow Keller Army Community Hospital to address this core aspect of patient satisfaction. Purpose: The purpose of this study was to provide a framework for open access implementation within a small Army Community Hospital while concurrently examining the effect a phased implementation approach had on physician satisfaction, provider continuity, and appointment availability. Methods: This study is both a qualitative and quantitative, exploratory, descriptive, cross-sectional study of the requirements needed to implement an open access system and the effect a phased implementation has on clinical practices. Results: The requirements for implementing an open access system center around controlling appointing practices within the facility, effective template management, and effective space utilization. Mean levels of provider satisfaction increased and both provider continuity and appointment wait time improved at statistically significant rates (p\h.01 for each).

193 Conclusions: This study indicates that open access bas benefited KACH, its staff members, and its beneficiary population. DTIC Hospitals; Management Systems; Medical Services

20050173364 Academy of Health Sciences (Army), Fort Sam Houston, TX USA Forecasting Medical Materiel Requirements for Contingency Operations Moroney, Daniel J.; Apr. 2004; 110 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432719; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This qualitative study addresses the issue of poor forecasting accuracy for medical materiel requirements in preparation of contingency operations. Using examples from recent operations, to include Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom, this paper identifies how planners forecast requirements, highlights roadblocks to successful forecasting, and describes tools, models, and procedures for forecasting supplies, both internal and external to the Department of Defense. The study concludes that effective forecasting of supplies is accomplished through a collaborative team approach between clinicians, planners, and logisticians. Additionally, planners and logisticians must look beyond authorizations in sets, kits, and outfits when planning for patient treatment within a theater of operations. Among the various tools discussed, those that base medical materiel requirements on a time-phased patient driven scenario show the most promise including the Naval Health Research Center’s Estimating Supplies Program and Resupply Validation Program and the Army Medical Research and Materiel Command’s Joint Medical Materiel Modeling.

20050173366 Academy of Health Sciences (Army), Fort Sam Houston, TX USA Analyzing the Requirement for a Deployed Warrior Medical Management Center Table of Distribution and Allowances at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center Probus, Mark C.; Feb. 2004; 58 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432724; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This study identified personnel, equipment, facilities, evacuation, time, and patient acuity variables within the Department of Defense Central and European Commands as they pertained to the development of a Separate Table of Distribution and Allowances organization designed to medically manage evacuees during war. Three separate analyses were conducted to gather the results. A qualitative historical analysis of the existing Deployed Warrior Medical Management Center at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center revealed the need for various operational cells for the management of inpatients versus outpatients. A Chi-Square statistical test using a cross tabulation table with an alpha probability set at p(underscored) = .01 was predictive of the type of patient diagnosis (identified by 1CD9 Codes) during the first 180 days of Operation Iraqi Freedom. A total cost analysis identified patterns of financial expense, which suggested that evacuation for treatment at Landstuhl Regional Medical Center was more costly than treatment in the Central Command Theater of operations. The results of these three separate analyses support the need for a separate Table of Distribution and Allowances organization under Landstuhl Regional Medical Center dedicated to the management of evacuees during times of war and provide a template for further evaluation and planning for such an organization.

20050173370 Academy of Health Sciences (Army), Fort Sam Houston, TX USA An Analysis of Transitional Doctor of Physical Therapy Degrees for the Department of Defense Stang, J. M.; Jan. 2004; 52 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432730; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The purpose of this study was to survey DoD physical therapists for their opinions of tDPT programs and compare the costs of several courses of action (COAs). The majority of DoD therapists are credentialed at the graduate level. However, the American Physical Therapy Association vision states that by 2020 physical therapy will be provided by therapists who are doctors of physical therapy. A survey of DoD therapists was conducted to describe the attitudes, opinions, and resources available within the population. Descriptive statistics were computed for the sample. The results were used to create three COAs that were analyzed for cost and feasibility. Two-hundred and two DoD surveys were returned for a response rate of 49%. Sixty four percent of respondents were considering enrolling in a tDPT program and were willing to pay an average of $7,398. Time and cost were the two most frequent factors involved in selecting a tDPT program. Several options were identified as cost effective. This study represents a critical first step in the DoD to describe its physical therapist population. It was used to develop and assess various COAs designed to meet the APTA’s vision and sustain the DoD’s competitive advantage. DTIC Defense Program; Therapy

There have been substantial efforts to improve the nation’s bioterrorism preparedness. Better planning, equipment, training, surveillance, and pharmaceutical caches have elevated the nation s readiness for biological attacks. In order to effectively meet the challenges created by a bioterrorism attack, its first lines of defense, the first responders, must be rapidly prophylaxed to allow the continuance of their mission. Many states and localities have tackled the gigantic undertaking of mass prophylaxis plans to provide chemoprophylaxis to civilians should the need arise. Many cities have developed and tested their plans to provide general public mass prophylaxis. It is assumed, or briefly mentioned, that the mass prophylaxis of first responders will occur, but few plans have been developed. The primary objective of this research is to develop, test, and make recommendations for a straightforward, adaptable mass prophylaxis plan to meet the prophylactic requirements of local first responders in the event of a biological attack.

In 10 swine CCI parameters of velocity and dwell time were varied to achieve a consistent injury (3.5 m/sec, 400 m/sec, respectively). In 13 swine depth of depression was varied from 9 to 12 mm. Physiological data including heart rate (HR), mean arterial blood pressure (MAP), intracranial pressure (ICP), and cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) were collected for 10 hours after injury. Following injury, ICP and HR increased above baseline values in all swine with a more pronounced elevation in animals impacted to a depth of depression of 12 mm. An 11 mm depth of depression was found to most closely mimic pathological features of human TBI with edema, infiltration of inflammatory cells, pericapillary hemorrhage, and petechial

195 hemorrhages in the white matter. Injury to a depth of depression of 12 mm resulted in cortical laceration obscuring these features. Immunohistological staining with Neu-N, MAP-2, and Fluoro Jade B revealed evidence of degenerating neurons, axonal disruption, and impending cell death. These results indicate that the swine model of CCI results in a defined and reproducible injury with pathological features similar to human TBI. DTIC Biodynamics; Impact Tests

We describe a methodology to examine respiratory samples that simultaneously identifies broad groups of bacteria. The process uses electrospray ionization mass spectrometry and base composition analysis of broad-range PCK amplification products. The base composition analyses from a small set of broad-range primer pairs are used to ‘triangulate’ the identity of pathogenic organisms present in the sample. Once a species has been identified, the rapid recursive use of species-specific primers to housekeeping genes allows strain-typing. This strategy was used to examine samples from military recruits sickened in a recent Group A streptococcal (GAS) pneumonia outbreak (MMWK 52, 6, p106-109, 2003). The strain-typing results were essentially identical to those obtained using classic emm typing and Multi Locus Sequence Typing. This method allows real-time evaluation of patient samples and will make possible more rapid and appropriate treatment of patients in an ongoing epidemic, regardless of the etiology, in a time frame not previously achievable.

The study examined data from a 22-month period (January 2002 through October 2003) . Two multiple variant regression analyses were performed using average monthly pharmacy waiting room time and average monthly prescription errors as dependent variables and categories of personnel as independent variables. The results of both regression analyses presented strong evidence that the decrease in pharmacy staff over the 22-month period contributed to both the increase in waiting room time for patients and the increase in prescription errors. The correlations between the dependent and independent variables in the regression analyses were statistically significant. Finally, the paper compared and contrasted the bank teller concept, which is the current business practice used in the Eisenhower Pharmacy, and other concepts. The use of automation and a system that would mandate call-in prescription refills were the primary recommendations that resulted from the comparisons. These two methods will most likely allow the pharmacy to maintain acceptable wait time and produce acceptable levels of prescription errors despite fluctuations in personnel.

20050173383 Academy of Health Sciences (Army), Fort Sam Houston, TX USA Development of a Provider Profiling Tool for Reappointment , Melissa A.; Jul. 2004; 62 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432761; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A04, Hardcopy Provider profiling is simply measuring a process and/or outcome and comparing it to some defined norm. Profiling has many uses: utilization management, cost-effectiveness review, meeting access standards, patient satisfaction, outcomes assessment, population health, etc. Unfortunately, providers have had a very negative reaction to profiling, a tool that can help them improve outcomes and make their practices more efficient. This paper will explore the reasons for the negative reactions,

196 the keys to a successful profiling system, and the various attributes of good measures. The purpose of this project is to develop a tool that will aid in meeting the profiling requirements established by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations and to use the tool for ongoing quality improvement. This paper examines the existing profiling system of a small, rural Army hospital and describes the development of a new database. Given that many Army hospitals are struggling with the development of an adequate profiling system, this database may prove useful in developing the groundwork to those facilities.

Military treatment facilities will be required to develop comprehensive business plans that fully document their accountability and responsibility in providing care for enrolled beneficiaries. Wilford Hall Medical Center is located in the San Antonio multiple-service-area-market within the newly designated South region. Within San Antonio, the Air Force operates Wilford Hall Medical Center, Randolph Clinic, and Brooks City-Base Clinic and the Army operates BAMC Medical Center, as well as several smaller troop medical clinics. Wilford Hall has been designated as the multi-market manager and, as such, will be expected to formulate one consolidated business plan for the San Antonio market area. This study seeks to create a service-area profile specific to the 59th Medical Wing, Wilford Hall to assist with developing a picture of how resources are presently used to meet the needs of the population. It contains a structural proposal to go forth to manage this market area. Demographic information for beneficiaries accessing care at Wilford Hall Medical Center was gathered utilizing data gleaned from the TRICARE Operations Center and customized queries from the Composite Health Care System. Results from a recent data envelopment analysis study were summarized to reveal trends in efficiency levels for Wilford Hall Medical Center. The paper concludes with the observation that current market management efforts are not sufficiently bold or far-reaching. Through the focused efforts of a revised Bexar County Community Health Collaborative, San Antonio could become an ideal community for delivering medical care in a cost effective way, on time and on target, with the goals that were set forth in healthier communities.

20050173389 Minnesota Univ., Minneapolis, MN USA An Efficient Docking Algorithm Using Conserved Residue Information to Study Protein-Protein Interactions Duan, Yuhua; Reddy, Boojala V.; Kaznessis, Yiannis N.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAAD10-01-2-0014 Report No.(s): AD-A432780; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Many protein-protein docking algorithms generate numerous possible complex structures with only a few of them resembling the native structure. The major challenge is choosing the near-native structures from the generated set. Recently it has been observed that the density of conserved residue positions is higher at the interface regions of interacting protein surfaces, except for antibody-antigen complexes, where a very low number of conserved positions is observed at the interface regions. In the present study we have used this observation to identify putative interacting regions on the surface of interacting partners. We studies 59 protein complexes, used previously as a benchmark dataset for docking investigations. We computed conservation indices of residue positions on the surfaces of interacting proteins using available homologous sequences of interacting proteins using available homologous sequences and used this information to filter out from 55% to 88% of generated docked models, retaining near-native structures for further evaluation. We used a reverse filter of conservation score to filter out the majority of non-native antigen-antibody complex structures. For each docked model in the filtered subsets, we relaxed the conformation of the side chains by minimizing the energy with CHARMM. We then calculated the binding free energy using a generalized Born method and solvent accessible surface area calculations. Using the free energy along with conservation information and other descriptors used in the literature for ranking docking solutions, such as shape complementarity and pair-potentials, we developed a global ranking procedure that significantly improves the docking results by giving top ranks to the near-native complex structures.

We have made the following progress during the past year: (1) We have developed models in SCID mice of four different non-angiogenic human breast cancers, and have shown that the time to the switch to the angiogenic phenotype is predictable and reproducible for each different breast cancer type. The same is true for the percentage of tumors that become angiogenic. (2) Two angiogenesis-based biomarkers have been developed to detect the angiogenic switch when these tumors are still at a microscopic size of 1 mm(sub 3) or less. The most sensitive and accurate biomarker is the ‘platelet angiogenic profile,’ which determines and quantifies the angiogenic regulatory proteins being elaborated by a tumor. A second biomarker is a rise in circulating precursor endothelial cells exiting from the bone marrow and stimulated by a tumor that is undergoing the angiogenic switch. Our translational goal is to treat human breast cancer, both primary and recurrent, with non-toxic angiogenesis inhibitors guided by biomarkers before tumors can be anatomically located.

We hypothesize that, due to the stringency of telomerase repression in humans, attaining these defects may be rate-limiting in human carcinogenesis. Our goal is to define the minimum number of genetic and epigenetic changes that permit telomerase reactivation and immortal transformation of finite lifespan HMEC, in a manner that models changes observed in breast cancers in vivo. Thus far, we have been able to obtain immortalized HMEC using a combination of two oncogenes (c-myc and ZNF217) with pathological relevance to human breast cancer. Although CGH analyses of some of these immortal lines did not show any detectable large-scale changes in gene copy numbers, these lines have all undergone clonal selection, suggesting that unknown stochastic changes, in addition to over-expression of c-myc and ZNF217, might be necessary for immortalization. We are currently working to identify these stochastic changes. Better understanding of the underlying molecular changes involved in telomerase reactivation may provide novel prevention strategies and/or targets for therapeutic intervention in breast cancer pathogenesis.

The experiments also demonstrated the difficulty of maintaining hypoxic seawater. Using a gas mixture it was possible to displace dissolved oxygen in natural seawater. However, aerobic respiration and corrosion reactions consumed oxygen and produced totally anaerobic conditions within the first days of hypoxia. When gaskets and seals failed oxygen was inadvertently introduced. The impact on corrosion depended on the amount of dissolved oxygen in the system at the time of the inadvertent oxygen introduction. Steels exposed to cycles of hypoxic seawater and oxygenated atmosphere had the highest corrosion rate and severity. DTIC Ballast (Mass); Corrosion; Deoxygenation; Sea Water; Tanks (Containers)

The activity of RBC-AChE and BChE can be used as potential biomarkers of suppressed and/or heightened function in the central and peripheral nervous systems. For instance, the toxicity of pesticides is well documented in humans. Therefore, blood cholinesterase (ChE) activity can be exploited as a tool for confirming exposure to these agents and possible treatments. Yet it is the OP CWAs that are some of the most potent and irreversible inhibitors that can produce excessive accumulation of acetylcholine, and a cholinergic crisis in man leading to paralysis and ultimately death. Current assays for measurement of erythrocytebound acetylcholinesterase (RBC-AChE) and serum butyrylcholinesterase (BChE, pseudocholinesterase) require several labor-intensive processing steps, suffer from wide statistical variation, and inter-laboratory comparison is often difficult. Techniques currently used include the Ellman and microEllman microtiter method, radiometric, amperometric, and delta (delta) pH (modified Michel protocol) used by the U.S. Army’s Cholinesterase Reference Laboratories (CRL). Such methods determine only the serum BChE or RBC-AChE, and require the use of specific ChE inhibitors or sample processing such as centrifugation.

J.; Apr. 2005; 13 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432862; USAMRIID-RPP-04-442; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Viruses exploit a variety of cellular components to complete their life cycles, and it has become increasingly clear that use of host cell microtubules is a vital part of the infection process for many viruses. A variety of viral proteins have been identified that interact with microtubules, either directly or via a microtubule-associated motor protein. Here, we report that Ebola virus associates with microtubules via the matrix protein VP40. When transfected into mammalian cells, a fraction of VP40 colocalized with microtubule bundles and VP40 coimmunoprecipitated with tubulin. The degree of colocalization and microtubule bundling in cells was markedly intensified by truncation of the C terminus to a length of 317 amino acids. Further truncation to 308 or fewer amino acids abolished the association with microtubules. Both the full-length and the 317-amino-acid truncation mutant stabilized microtubules against depolymerization with nocodazole. Direct physical interaction between purified VP40 and tubulin proteins was demonstrated in vitro. A region of moderate homology to the tubulin binding motif of the microtubule-associated protein MAP2 was identified in VP40. Deleting this region resulted in loss of microtubule stabilization against drug-induced depolymerization. The presence of VP40-associated microtubules in cells continuously treated with nocodazole suggested that VP40 promotes tubulin polymerization. Using an in vitro polymerization assay, we demonstrated that VP40 directly enhances tubulin polymerization without any cellular mediators. These results suggest that microtubules may play an important role in the Ebola virus life cycle and potentially provide a novel target for therapeutic intervention against this highly pathogenic virus.

200 20050173467 Johns Hopkins Univ., Baltimore, MD USA Identification of Widely Applicable Tumor-Associated Antigens for Breast Cancer Immunotherapy Bai, Jining; Oct. 2004; 10 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0280 Report No.(s): AD-A432926; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy This study is a feasibility study of a novel immunotherapeutic strategy for the treatment of breast cancer. The rationale is based upon recent findings that genes belonging to the pp32 family are differentially and alternatively expressed in most human breast cancers. In general, benign breast tissues express pp32, a tumor suppressor, whereas breast cancers express tumorigenic family members, including pp32r1 and pp32r2. Since pp32r1 and pp32r2 are expressed in nearly all breast cancers, but not in normal adult tissues, they may reasonably serve as targets for antigen-specific immunotherapy. The purpose of this study is to identify tumor-associated antigens (TAA) in pp32r1 and pp32r2, then test their suitability in vitro as immunotherapeutic targets in breast cancer. Currently, the animal study is underway. If successful, the results may translate into eventual clinical trials of peptide vaccines or adoptive T cell therapy.

As of July 31, 2004, 163 patients have contacted the Registry and 135 have completed their interviews. Tissue blocks have been obtained from 110 patients and frozen surgical specimens have been collected from 10. Five laboratories were sent biospecimens and results continue to be obtained. Data on the first 50 patients were presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Conference in December 2003 and initial evaluation of the questionnaire data will be presented at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Conference in December 2004. The clinical data include the observation that approximately one third of IBC patients are initially diagnosed as having mastitis and are treated with up to five months of antibiotics before the diagnosis of cancer is made. Less than 25% of patients have a discrete mass identified on initial mammography. Laboratory data thus far (45 patients) indicate that the tumors from all patients express significant amounts of BP-1, a homeobox gene associated with breast cancer aggressiveness. In addition, tumors from a higher percentage of IBC patients express gene sequences resembling mouse mammary tumor virus than non-IBC breast cancer patients.

20050173491 Harvard Medical School, Boston, MA USA Characterization of Two Novel Oncogenic Pathways Collaborting With Loss of p53 or Activated Neu in Mouse Models of Breast Cancer Lu, Jianrong; Leder, Philip; Sep. 2004; 12 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-02-1-0402 Report No.(s): AD-A432969; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Cancer is a complex multistep disease and progresses through successive accumulation of genetic mutations. Loss of tumor suppressor gene p53 and activation of oncogene Neu/ErB2 are among the most frequent genetic alterations in human breast cancer. We performed a retroviral insertional mutagenesis screen to identify genes that may contribute to mammary tumor formation in conjunction with deregulated p53 or Neu. Multiple proviral insertions from independent tumors were identified to be located within introns of the F-box gene Fbw4, suggesting that the structural alteration at this locus may provide selective growth advantage. The viral integrations result in marked overexpression of a novel, naturally occurring Fbw4 short isoform, which is also spontaneously enriched in several mouse and human breast cancer cell lines but not in non-transformed mammary epithelial cells, thus appears to be associated with malignant transformation. Overexpression of this short isoform in the normal mouse mammary epithelial cell leads to anchorage-independent growth in soft agar. Taken together, these observations indicate that aberrant expression of the short Fbw4 isoform observed in MMTV-induced tumors and spontaneous breast cancer cell lines may contribute to mammary tumorigenesis.

Current dogma dictates that early, adequate fluid resuscitation is crucial to reduce the mortality and morbidity associated with hemorrhagic shock. Yet, despite much research in the field and years of resuscitating thousands of patients, the optimal fluid and resuscitation strategy for the treatment of hemorrhagic hypovolemia remains unknown. However, with future combat strategies focused around the Future Force Warrior, greater dispersal of troops and fighting in urban settings and on non-linear battlefields, the likelihood of longer evacuation times for combat casualties is anticipated. As a consequence of these conditions and the logistic limitations of weight and cube, fluid resuscitation research within the Army’s Combat Casualty Care Research Program has focused to investigate limited- or small-volume fluid resuscitation strategies. including permissive hypotension, in far-forward areas for the treatment of severe hemorrhage. The ultimate goals are to improve battlefield survival and to reduce or prevent early and late deleterious sequelae in the injured soldier. For the military the concept of hypotensive resuscitation, or fluid resuscitation to a blood pressure below pre-hemorrhage levels. currently seems to be a rational approach to compensate for the limited amount of fluid available on the battlefield to treat casualties, and to minimize the chance for rebleeding from penetrating injuries. In addition. studies in experimental animals have suggested that hypotensive resuscitation may improve survival from an uncontrolled hemorrhage (Capone et al. 1995; Stern et al. 2001).

While in vitro synergistic interaction was demonstrated specifically in human prostate cancer cell lines containing a functional androgen receptor, we encountered difficulty in demonstrating such synergism in vivo for the reason that severe toxicity was noted when VEGF was delivered as an Ad-CMV-TK vector. For this reason, we explored the other possible synergistic interaction between squalamine and castration. Results and Discussion: Squalamine is highly synergistic to castration-induced endothelial destruction when applied at the time of castration. We noted VEGF receptor, flt-1 and integrin profile (e.g. alpha 6 Beta 4) can predict squalamine response. Prostate cancer cells lacking the expression of these markers may be less responsive to the synergistic interaction between squalamine and castration. We are currently assessing the possible interaction between squalamine and VEGF and squalamine and androgen status of the cell culture and in animals subjected to castration to evaluate if synergism may exist particularly against the growth of endothelial cells.

Therefore, the development of a potent antiangiogenic gene therapy strategy for brain cancer represents an attractive alternative to existing therapeutic interventions and circumvents the existing pitfalls associated with direct recombinant antiangiogenic protein delivery. Several potent inhibitors of the angiogenic process are known. Amongst them, angiostatin, is a cleavage product of human plasminogen

202 encompassing the first four N-terminal kringle structures. Of particular interest is the fifth kringle (KS) of plasminogen that has been found to enhance the angiostatic potency of angiostatin. We propose that the KS domain may serve as a potent angiostatic agent on its own and that it may act as a usefully therapeutic transgene within a cancer gene therapy strategy. To test this hypothesis, we have developed a KS expressing retroviral vector and have characterized the angiostatic activity of the de novo produced KS peptide in vitro and tested its efficacy in vivo using an orthotopic brain cancer model. Upon intracerebral implantation of lO% U87-GFP (n=S) and U87-KS-GFP (n=S) glioma cells in nude mice, hematoxylin and eosin-stained brain timue sections reveal that U87-K-GFP-implanted mice possess significantly reduced tumor volumes as compared to the mock implanted mice 32 days post-implantation. This evidence suggests that soluble KS peptide holds promise as an attractive anti- angiogenic therapeutic agent within a cancer gene therapy setting.

Although gene targeting has been achieved in somatic human cells using transfected targeting vectors, the efficiency of this process is very low necessitating the isolation and analysis of many thousands of cell clones before a targeted allele can be identified. Such approaches are impractical with normal human breast cells. We tested if the adoption of a different delivery method, needle microinjection, resulted in more efficient homologous recombination such that targeted clones could be identified after screening fewer colonies. Although we obtained antibiotic resistant clones, we have been unable to identify any clones with targeted alleles. We conclude that our idea was incorrect and that this approach will not be practically feasible without further modification. DTIC Breast

Eighty athymic Fischer 344 mice will be purchased at 21 days and at 26 days of age, MDA-MB-231 carcinoma cells (3x10EXP 6 cells prepared from donor tumors) will be subcutaneously implanted into the right flank of all animals. At 40 days of age, animals will be randomly assigned to one of four groups: (i) exercise alone (n=20), (ii) doxorubicin alone (n=20), (iii) exercise plus doxorubicin (n=20), and (iv) control (n=20). Animals assigned to doxorubicin alone and exercise plus doxorubicin will receive intravenous injections of doxorubicin at 5mg/kg every 7 days. The exercise group will be progressively trained to run at 22m/min at 0% grade for 45 minutes 5 days/week for 8 weeks. Forty eight hours after the final exercise session, all experimental animals will be sacrificed via carbon dioxide anesthetization and cervical dislocation. The primary tumor will be surgically removed, weighed and histologically processed. The primary outcome will be tumor volume measured in two dimensions. Secondary outcomes will be tumor growth delay calculated as the number of days for each individual animal tumor to reach 1000 cubic mm compared with the control group.

203 into breast tumor lines with higher efficiency than smaller polymers of cationic amino acids. In addition, we have demonstrated that PTD-Sma34 worked in conjunction with Ad.TRAIL gene transfer to induce breast tumor apoptosis. We also have demonstrated that membrane bound TRAIL worked more effectively than soluble (secreted) TRAIL to induce breast cancer apoptosis. Moreover, we have demonstrated that co-administration of Ad.TRAlL with PTD-Smac34 resulted in not only enhanced adenoviral transduction of the tumors, but resulted in a stronger apoptotic effect. Finally, we have initiated studies to identify breast cancer specific tumor lines by screening a peptide phage display library both in cell culture as well as in nude mice bearing xenografts. Initial results in prostate tumors has demonstrated the feasibility of this approach and suggests breast tumor specific internalization peptides can be identified.

Of the many established risk factors for breast cancer, only family history has been consistently shown to be associated with bilateral disease. Methods: We analyzed a population-based cohort of 123,757 women with a first primary breast cancer diagnosed in Sweden from 1970 to 2000 and identified 6,550 women with a bilateral breast cancer. Results: Incidence of synchronous bilateral breast cancer mimics that of unilateral breast cancer. During 20 years from initial diagnosis, the incidence of metachronous cancer decreased from about 800 to 400 per 10(exp 5) person-years in patients first diagnosed before age 45, whilst the incidence remained stable at 500 to 600 per 10(exp 5) among those who were older at diagnosis of first cancer. Conclusions: The finding of breast cancer being simultaneously diagnosed in two breasts has an incidence far beyond the expected, but is probably not explained by genetic background rather environmental factors. The incidence pattern of metachronous bilateral cancer by age and follow-up time fits neither a model of highly penetrant genes, nor a model assuming only aggregation of environmental risk factors.

A.; Long, J. B.; Ketchum, L. H.; Macdonald, V. W.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432989; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Factor VII (FVII) circulates in plasma as a zymogen until it is exposed to tissue factor (TF). When bound to TF, activated FVII (FVIIa) initiates the extrinsic coagulation cascade that results in the formation of a polymerized fibrin clot. In the untraumatized brain, TF is physically isolated from FVII. However, traumatic brain injury (TBI) frequently results in the disruption of the vascular endothelium and resultant exposure of FVII to subendothelial TF. Recent evidence suggests that proinflammatory cytokines(IL-1,IL-6,TNFa) can induce the upregulation of TF. Since these cytokines also have been implicated in the inflammatory response to TBI, it is conceivable that, in the traumatized brain, treatment with recombinant (r) FVIIa might exacerbate injury-induced coagulopathy. In an effort to evaluate this hypothesis. rats were trained to execute a visual discrimination and locate the submerged platform in a Morris water maze (MWM) before being subjected to moderate parasaggittal fluid percussion injury (FPI) immediately followed by 30 min of 10% of O2. Ten min before FPI, rats were injected IV with 4 mg/kg of human rFVIIa; clotting and factor assays revealed that this was a hemostatically active dose. Visual discrimination performance was continuously recorded for two weeks after FPI and on day 7 after FPI, retention was tested in the MWM. After a two-week recovery period, brains were perfusion fixed and processed for histological evaluation. Contrary to our expectation, preliminary findings revealed that FPI reduced neuronal cell density and disrupted the pyramidal and granule cells of the dentate gyrus less in rats treated with rFVIIa than in rats treated with vehicle. Furthermore, visual discrimination accuracy was reduced less and recovered more rapidly and the mean retention score was larger for rats treated with rFVIIa than for rats treated with vehicle. Thus, rather than revealing a therapeutic complication, these preliminary findings agree with recent dat7 DTIC Brain; Brain Damage; Enzymes; Hypoxemia; Injuries; Peptides; Therapy

The cell type from which the tumor arises may dictate its potential for aggressive behavior. The mammary gland consists of different cell types including the cap cell; a less differentiated, highly proliferative cell basally located in the terminal end bud (TEB) of the murine mammary gland. The TEBs invade the fatty stroma of the pubertal gland establishing the ductal network. These specialized structures are reported to be targets for carcinogen-induced DNA damage. Their human counterparts are called intralobular ducts and are also sites of cancerous lesions. We hypothesize that genetic change specific to the cap cell population of the TEB will lead to aggressive tumors and metastatic disease. P-cadherin is normally expressed in the cap cells of the TEB and its progenitors. To test whether the less differentiated Pcadherin-positive cells have greater metastatic potential, the neu/HER-2 proto-oncogene will be targeted specifically to the cap cell population using the endogenous P-cadherin promoter. The goal of this research is to determine whether the highly proliferative and invasive cap cell population is a target for metastatic breast cancer.

A conformational change is believed to convert the normal cellular prion protein (PrP (expC)) into PrP(exp Sc). Detection of PrP(exp Sc) for diagnosis and prophylaxis is impaired because available antibodies recognizing epitopes on PrP fail to distinguish between PrP(exp sc) and PrP (exp c). We have discovered a novel antibody oCD4 that may overcome the above deficiency. The objective in year I is to characterize the specificity and selectivity of OCD4. We have accomplished this objective for year I. The major findings and work in progress are summarized here. We have found that OCD4 is an anti-DNA antibody OCD4 that capture PrP from brains affected by prion diseases in both humans and animals but not from unaffected controls. OCD4 appears to immunoreact with DNA (or a DNA- associated molecule) that forms a conformation-dependent complex with PrP in prion diseases. We have also found that g5p, a well-established DNA-binding protein, can be used for recognizing PrP(exp Sc). Therefore, OCD4 and g5p specifically target disease-associated DNA PrP complexes in prion diseases. Our finding opens new avenues in the study and diagnosis of prion diseases.

A specific isoform of AKT may be preferentially activated or activated proteins may have different substrate preferences, providing a therapeutic opportunity to target a particular isoform. The primary endpoint is to compare responsiveness to tamoxifen in ER-alpha- positive, ErbB2 low tumors with high AKT1 activity versus no AKT1 activity. 7 tumors each of 1) ER-alpha-positive, ErbB2 high; 2) ER-alpha-positive, ERbB2 low; 3) ER-alpha-positive, no ErbB2; 4) ER-negative, ErbB2 high; 5) ER- negative, ErbB2 low; and 6) ER-negative, no ErbB2 will be tested for AKT (AKT1, AKT2, AKT3), ErbB (EGFR, ErbB2, ErbB3, and ErbB4) and ER-a expression and activity.

This is the annual report for the first funding period (Nov. 1, 2003-Oct. 31, 2004). The goal of this project is to develop a novel technique, Multiple Aperture Radiation Therapy (MART), as a candidate modality for treating breast cancer. The specific aims of this work are: (a) To demonstrate that MART can lead to substantially improved dose distribution over the conventional method, without increasing the complexity of the radiation treatment; (b) To show that the superior dose distributions of MART can be realized efficiently and accurately. Under the generous support from the U.S. Army Medical Research and Materiel Command (AMRMC), the PI has gained a tremendous amount of knowledge on breast cancer and breast cancer management over the last year. The support has also made it possible for the PI to contribute significantly to breast cancer research. A number of conference abstracts and a refereed paper has been resulted from the support.

Blocking IRS-1 signaling with a dominant-negative IRS-1 mutant F18 dramatically reduced the cancer cell growth. These studies suggest that constitutive IRS-1 activation plays a central role in breast cancer cell growth and that IRS-1 could be an attractive therapeutic target. IRS-1 has complicated downstream signaling pathways that play important roles in multiple cellular functions. An ideal IRS-1 inhibitor for cancer therapy would block only the IRS-1 growth-related signaling, with minimal interruption of other IRS-1 signaling. To determine the IRS-1 downstream signaling pathway that is critical for growth of breast cancer cells, we expressed six IRS-1 mutants, each with the mutation of critical tyrosine residue(s) that initiates a particular IRS-i downstream pathway, in breast cancer cells and determined the dominant-negative effects of each IRS-1 mutant on tumor cell growth. Our results showed that IRS-1 defected in SHP-2 binding had similar tumor suppressor function as F18, suggesting IRS-1 promote cancer cell growth by activating SHP-2 signaling. A synthetic peptide representing SHP-2 binding site was then used to screen a compound library. Preliminary analysis showed that 3 small molecular compounds were capable of inhibiting SHP-2 binding in vitro. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Insulin; Mammary Glands; Substrates; Therapy

Labeled proteins are detected by laser-induced fluorescence in a sheath flow cuvette. Capillary sieving electrophoresis and capillary micellar electrophoresis were used to characterize proteins in single cells in one-dimensional separations, while the two techniques were combined to generate two-dimensional protein fingerprints from single cells.

20050173516 Walter Reed Army Inst. of Research, Silver Spring, MD USA Live Attenuated Shigella as a Diarrheal Vaccine and/or Mucosal Delivery Vector for DNA Vaccines Venkatesan, M. M.; Ranallo, R. T.; Cassels, F. J.; , T. L.; Cox, J.; Kuta, E.; Galley, L.; Fouts, T.; Lewis, G.; Hanke, T.; Than, S.; Mehra, V.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A433001; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Several live attenuated Shigella vaccines of different serotypes have been shown to be safe, immunogenic, and in one case effective against challenge with virulent strains. The ability to invade epithelial cells remains critical for the success of these vaccine candidates. Live, orally administered Shigella vaccine derivatives are also being evaluated as multivalent mucosal vaccines able to deliver both bacterial antigens and eukaryotic genes to the gut associated lymphoid tissues of the common mucosal immune system. Fimbrial and enterotoxin antigen genes from enterotoxigenic E. coli (ETEC) were cloned into a plasmid encoding the gene for aspartate semialdehyde dehyrogenase (asd) and expressed within SC608, and asd mutant of Shigella flexneri 2a vaccine strain SC602. Guinea pigs immunized intranasally with SC608 expressing the ETEC antigens demonstrated serum and mucosal immune responses to antigens from both diarrheal pathogens. SC608, in the absence of an asd-based plasmid, lyses with epithelial cells after invasion. This phenotype has also been used to deliver plasmid DNA vaccines containing eukaryotic genes into the host cell cytoplasm for expression. Splenocytes from mice immunized intranasally with asd mutants of Shigella containing plasmid HIV DNA vaccines demonstrated HIV antigen-specific IFN-gamma ELISPOTS after in vitro expansion. These preliminary results are encouraging and suggest that live, attenuated Shigella vaccines can be engineering to deliver both prokaryotic and eukaryotic antigens to the mucosal system.

20050173533 Toledo Univ., OH USA Acoustic Emission Based Surveillance System for Prediction of Stress Fractures Akkus, Ozan; Sep. 2004; 12 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-03-1-0743 Report No.(s): AD-A433023; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Stress fractures of bone constitute the most serious musculoskeletal overuse injury during military training of male and female recruits. We believe that the cascade of events in stress fractures is structured as the upregulation of bone turnover, amplification of porosity, induction of greater local strains and associated increase in damage activity a priori to fracture. The hypothesis of our study is that the onset of stress fractures can be predicted by monitoring the evolution of microdamage activity using acoustic emissions. During the first year bone tissue was procured and amassed for specimen preparation. A new mechanical loading set up was designed and fabricated to improve the cyclic loading tests. Ristological protocols were developed for sequential labeling of bone tissue prior to and after mechanical loading to separate in vivo and in vitro microdamage. Acoustic emission tests were run on a preliminary group of samples and the characteristic of extraneous waveforms emanating from other sources were obtained for filtering purposes. In the overall the protocols have been finalized and the proposed tests will be accomplished during the second year. DTIC Acoustic Emission; Bones; Fractures (Materials); Surveillance

Axillary surgery and radiation treatment are known risk factors for lymphedema. However, other potentially modifiable characteristics or behaviors that may influence risk of this condition have not yet been studied. In this study, we will assess whether modifiable factors, including body weight, physical activity, smoking and breast reconstruction, influence risk of arm lymphedema among women treated for breast cancer. Women aged 21-74 years diagnosed with a first primary invasive breast cancer will be identified through a population-based cancer registry. Enrollment will be limited to women who have had axillary node dissection, as the occurrence of lymphedema is most common in these women. The incidence and timing of arm edema following breast cancer will be assessed using physical measures (arm volume) and self-report of symptoms, at regular intervals throughout the study. Each time they undergo arm measurement, women will complete questionnaires detailing and updating information on the exposures of interest and potential confounding factors. The study will be conducted over a 4-year period. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Edema; Lymph; Mammary Glands; Risk

20050173536 University Health Network, Toronto, Ontario Canada A Study of Transrectal Tumor Oxygen Measurements in Patients Which Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer Milosevic, Michael F.; Aug. 2004; 9 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0111 Report No.(s): AD-A433026; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy The primary aim of this clinical study is to determine the relationship between pre-treatment prostate cancer oxygen levels and long-term disease control following treatment with radiotherapy, and the independent prognostic effect of oxygen measurements relative to established prognostic factors. In addition, the study will determine the relationship between pre-treatment tumor oxygen levels and mutations of the p53 tumor suppressor gene, and the impact of this interaction on patient outcome. It is anticipated that the accrual target of 195 patients will be achieved by July 31, 2005. The oxygen measurement technique was revised based on our pilot study to assure that the highest quality data are being collected. The microregional distribution of oxygen in prostate cancer biopsies will be studied using intrinsic markers of oxygenation. The molecular studies’ of p53 are proceeding as outlined in the proposal. A preliminary analysis suggested a potentially important influence of prostrate cancer hypoxia on patient outcome following treatment with radiotherapy, in agreement with the underlying hypothesis of the study. However, longer patient follow-up is required to confirm this early result. It is anticipated that all aspects of the proposed work will be completed.

We hypothesize that a high iron level is one of the pre-neoplastic changes in post-menopausal women, and HRT causes iron release to increase BC risk. This hypothesis will be tested using an iron loaded transgenic mouse model. Since iron slowly accumulates due to the mutation of the HFE gene (hemochromatosis Fe), iron elevated in the mouse body mimics the post-menopausal condition. In the present study, we will assess whether (1) HRT mobilizes iron from the liver to the mammary site in the mice, causing greater oxidative DNA and protein damages in the breast tissue; and (2) HRT and iron enhance mammary cancer cell growth. Female wild type and HFE homozygote mice will be fed a diet with or without Prempro(Trademark) or inoculated with breast cancer cells into the mammary fat pads and then fed with Prempro(Trademark). After treatment, mammary tumor nodules will be counted to determine the tumor incidence. Portions of mammary tissue will be used for assessing oxidative DNA damage

208 and protein oxidation. We expect that HFE homozygote mice subject to HRT will be more susceptible to mammary tumorigenesis than wild type mice. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Hormones; Iron; Mammary Glands; Replacing; Therapy

20050173538 Washington Univ., Seattle, WA USA Novel Functional Screen for New Breast Cancer Genes King, Mary-Claire; Welcsh, Piri L.; Jun. 2004; 14 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-02-1-0615 Report No.(s): AD-A433029; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Genetic instability is a hallmark of tumor development. Mechanisms for maintenance of genomic stability are heterogeneous and identification of the genes responsible a critical goal of cancer biologists. The very large number of genetic alterations in breast tumors and genetic heterogeneity, even within a single breast tumor, strongly suggests that some mutator mechanism must be involved in breast tumorigenesis. Our hypothesis is that a mutator mechanism contributes to the development of breast cancer. However, since breast tumors do not display an obvious phenotype that signals the presence of a mutator defect (such as microsatellite instability), another scheme to identify defects in repair genes and their targets is necessary. Thus, our first objective is to use a novel yeast model system to identify genes that are previously unrecognized targets of mutator mechanisms and to determine whether these genes are altered in breast tumors. Our second objective is to identify genes that function as novel mutators in the yeast system then evaluate whether any are altered in breast tumors. The identification of mutator genes and their targets that contribute to the etiology of breast cancer will enhance our understanding of the genetic mechanisms involved in initiation and progress of disease. These genes will impact drug and biomarker discovery and ultimately, revolutionize patient care. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Genetics; Mammary Glands; Neoplasms; Oncogenes

While research of the past 20 years has identified genes whose malfunction causes cancer to grow, it has not been clear why these defects also induce the ability to metastasize. We have defined molecules that form a connection between signals that make cancer cells grow and signals that cause them to metastasize. In breast cancer cells, a molecule called Akt kinase bridges these two functions. Here we study the exact mechanism by which Akt kinase connects mechanisms of growth with mechanisms of cancer spread. The identification of a single defined defect as responsible for growth and metastasis enhances our molecular insights into cancer and it defines candidate targets for therapeutic intervention.

It has not been evaluated in an abrupt menopause model, as occurs in women at high risk of breast cancer because of inherited risk who undergo prophylactic oophorectomy to reduce breast cancer risk. We will conduct a double-blind randomized placebo-control trial to test the hypotheses that Tibolone will accomplish these goals in high-risk premenopausal women undergoing prophylactic oophorectomy, and provide an alternative for them to manage menopause symptoms without increasing breast cancer risk. Our progress to date has been: 1. Completion of the development and institutional IRB approval of the research protocol, recruitment and study management materials 2. Development and

209 piloting of algorithms for symptom management; training of research nurses to use them for management of patients with menopause symptoms and breast cancer or breast cancer risk 3. Tibolone and placebo are obtained. The protocol is ready for initiation after DAMD Human Subjects approval 4. We have developed systems for patient accrual working with gynecologic oncologists in involved institutions In summary, we are ready to begin subject recruitment as soon as we receive DAMD approval to proceed.

This project focuses on muscle wastiung. A number of %factors have been proposed to cause cancer cachexia. Lack of progress in the area is unfortunate, given the tremendous benefit patients with advanced cancer would receive from effective treatment of cachexia to improve quality of life and postpone mortality. We proposed that autocrine motility factor (AMF) is released into the bloodstream from cancer sites and stimulates muscle wasting. In the second grant period we have now demonstrated that administration of recombinant AMF protein to mice results in a statistically significant loss of weight, compared to control treatment, in 24 hours. We are ready to test the species specificity of this response. We have also determined the molecular structure of the recombinant mouse protein. In the next and final research year will assess some of the molecular pathways activated in muscle by AMF, which could contribute to cachexia. These include - activation of proteasomal muscle protein degradation via the Foxo transcription factors and PI3 kinase pathways and alterations in the secreted regulators of muscle mass, IGF-1 and myostatin.

With the advent of new bioimaging technology and the advancement of efficient gene targeting strategies, we found an opportunity to apply these state-of-the-art molecular tools to our problem. The work performed with the support of this grant has enabled us to; 1) engineere a targeting vector to allow insertion of a reporter (luciferase or HSV-tk) into the genomic locus of the mouse mdrla gene; 2) create mouse embryonic stem cells in which a gene replacement/knock-in strategy was used to insert luciferase into the mouse mdrl a genomic locus; 3) demonstrate that luciferase expression in these cells requires Cre recombinase to bring luciferase in-frame with the translational start site of the mdrla gene product; 4) show that the recombined configuration of mdrl/LUC, in its cDNA form, encodes a functional protein with luciferase activity, and 5) create both founder and Cre-recombinase expressing mouse strains for use in vivo imaging experiments. Work performed to date has proved the feasibility of this approach. However, further refinements to the model are required. DTIC Gene Expression; Genes; Imaging Techniques; In Vivo Methods and Tests

Most of the biologic activity of PAH and related dioxins is mediated by the AhR. We tested if constitutively active AhR in

210 a human breast cancer cell line regulates c-myc, an important breast cancer gene which contains six AhR binding sites (AhREs) in its promoter. Our results indicate that: 1) there is a significant baseline level of wildtype c-myc promoter driven reporter activity in these tumor cells which was not affected by inclusion of TCDD, a strong AhR agonist, 2) the baseline reporter activity was not affected by deletion of the NF-kB site, 3) while mutation of single AhRE sites had no effect on baseline reporter activity, mutation of all six sites resulted in a five fold increase in reporter activity; a similar increase in reporter activity was seen when the wildtype reporter construct was co-transfected with an AhR repressor plasmid, 4) c-myc-specific real time PCR indicated that AhR repressor transfection increased background levels of endogenous c-myc mRNA. These results suggest that the AhR represses c-myc transcription and that AhR up-regulation in tumor cells may represent a failed growth feedback mechanism.

An important component of the CAD system is the multistage regional registration technique for identifying corresponding microcalcification clusters on temporal pairs of mammograms. In the first stage, an initial search region was estimated on the prior mammogram based on the cluster location on the current mammogram. In the second stage the search region was refined. In the third stage the cluster was detected within the search region. In the first stage we used the regional registration method (RRM), which outperformed the warping techniques. 175 temporal pairs of mammograms were used for evaluation. The average distance between% the estimated and the true cluster centroids on the previous mammogram after the initial stage was 7.95+-4.73mm. In the second stage, automated detection of microcalcification cluster within the search region is performed. Using our current cluster detection program with standard thresholds, 76.6% (134/175) TP with 0.45 false positives (FP) were detected within the search region. Using a high-sensitivity threshold, 89.1%(156/175) TP with 0.43 FP were detected. In the third stage the correspondence classifier was used and it reduced the FP rate to an average of 0.19 FP cluster with sensitivity of 81% (141/175).

A camera witha5in. x 5 in. field of view (FOV) is being investigated. Clinical experience with 14 subjects using the 1 in. x 1 in. FOV and 15 subjects using the 5 in. x 5 in. FOV suggests that the5x5FOVismore valuable to SLN localization in breast cancer patients. The task of verifying the content of two databases one consisting of one hundred and twenty-one breast cancer patients and the other consisting of 50 was carefully done. Data from database consisting of 50 patients was presented at the 8th Congress of the World Federation of Nuclear Medicine and Biology 2002 in Santiago, Chile by the senior nuclear medicine technologist at Atlanta VAMC. preliminary data from the probe alone versus probe and camera study was analyzed and an abstract was submitted for Sentinel Node 2004. From the work accomplished this far having a small FOV camera intraoperatively for SLN localization cases that do not make use of preoperative imaging might have some value.

However, the extent and variability of reduction of cellularity is considerable, particularly in the tumors that partly respond, and this shifts the distribution of residual tumor burden closer to complete response in those cases. Overall, this distribution indicates that many breast cancers are more responsive to neoadjuvant chemotherapy than measurement of tumor diameter alone would indicate. Therefore, size alone is not a sufficient measure of the tumor response to treatment. We have combined our measure of cancer cellularity with the radiological tumor measurements with the gross and microscopic pathologic changes in the breast and axillary lymph nodes after chemotherapy to determine a measure of relative breast cancer response. This Residual Cancer Index closely correlates with T-stage and appears to organize the responses into a meaningful distribution that allows a detailed view of nonresponsive tumors and can then be wed to conduct rank order statistical analyses without dividing the distribution of responses into arbitrary categories. Using this approach we have determined that low proliferation (Ki-67 \h 15%), bcl-2 overexpression, and tau overexpression significantly predict greater resistance to neoadjuvant chemotherapy with paclitaxel, 5-FU, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide.

Our provide the direct cellular evidence that the BRCA2-Rad51 interaction is crucial for HR repair and multiple regions of BRCA2 pretein are involved in regulating HR repair. Using the baculovinis co expression and Ni-NTA pull-down strategies, we demonstrated that BRCA2 forms a multiprotein complex with

212 Rad51, Rad51B and Rad51C DNA repair proteins involving a strong interaction between BRCA2 and Rad51, and between Rad51B and Rad51C. A weak interaction between Rad51B and Rad51C was observed as well. We also found that the BRC repeats of BRCA2 do not directly interact with Rad51B or Rad51C. In addition, we have successfully expressed three BRC fragments using baculovirus expression system. These protein expressions were confirmed by Western analysis. The purification of these proteins was found to be difficult because these proteins were extremely unstable and tended to be degraded during the purification process. We have tesed several conditions to stabilize the proteins, including use of different salts, different concentration of salts, different expression temperature, and co-expression of the proteins with Rad51. We have established three biochemical assays for Rad51 activities, including DNA binding, ATPase and DNA strand exchange. The investigation regarding whether the BRC1-4, BRC5-8 or BRC1-8 proteins affects the Rad51 activities is underway. DTIC Breast; Cancer; Mammary Glands

The reason for this phenomenon is not understood. Based on studies of genetically distinct inbred mouse strains, we found a reciprocal relationship between bone mass and bone quality, such that slender bones are associated with more damageable bone tissue. We postulate that a similar reciprocal relationship between bone mass and bone material properties exists in the human skeleton. The intriguing possibility that slender bones, like those we have demonstrated in animal models, may be composed of more damageable material than larger bones has not been considered. To test this hypothesis, we propose to determine whether whole bone geometry is a predictor of tissue fragility in the tibia from young male donors. Tissue damage ability will be assessed from biomechanical testing of compact bone samples and correlated with measures of bone slenderness. Specimens will be subjected to detailed analyses of bone microstructure, composition, and microdamage content. In the second set of experiments, these analyses will be repeated for female donors to test for gender differences in tissue fragility. Further, we will test whether fragility in cortical bone is a predictor of fragility in cancellous bone. Finally, we will conduct ultrasound measurements to identify an ultrasound parameter that is sensitive to the presence of damage and could be used for early diagnosis of stress fractures.

While these individual technologies are improving, attention must also be paid to integrating all of these resources so as to improve the quality and efficiency of surgical procedures. The OR2020 Workshop was organized by the ISIS Center at Georgetown University to identity the clinical and technical requirements for integrating advanced computer-assisted and robotic technologies into the next generation operating rooms and interventional suites. Five broad areas of technology requirements were identified: 1. Standards for devices and their use in the operating room (OR) are sorely needed. Every aspect of OR activity today is affected by their absence. 2. Interoperability of devices is essential for improved care and throughput. A ‘plug and play’ medial network is needed. 3. Surgical robotics continues to develop and will play a role. Improvements in surgical robotics that build on their unique capabilities are needed. 4. Surgery-specific image acquisition, processing, and display are needed. The two-dimensional (2D) static images typically used today are not sufficient. 5. Communications issues must be addressed and aim toward attaining a common language, training requirements, and protocols to enable telecollaboration.

In Albany, NY 248 former capacitor workers (62 per year) will undergo neuropsychological and neurological examinations, complete a comprehensive questionnaire, have blood drawn to measure serum thyroid hormone and PCB concentrations, and undergo a non-invasive test to determine bone-lead concentrations. This latter measure will allow us to control for exposure to lead--a potential confounder. In New Haven, CT 96 subjects (24 subjects per year) will be asked to undergo brain imaging at the Institute for Neurodegenerative Disorders to determine if PCBs reduce the number of basal ganglia DA terminals. To date, 129 subjects have undergone testing in Albany and 39 have been imaged in New Haven, CT with an additional nine subjects scheduled for testing. Serum PCB concentrations are being analyzed at Mt. Sinai School of Medicine. Secure electronic databases have been created for all data.

Annually 8,000 to 10,000 of these subjects will die of liver-related complications and approximately 1,000 will require liver transplantation. The USA military nave rates of HCV infection similar to the general US population (1.6%). However, it is a younger population and its natural history of HCV infection has not been studied. Therefore, the clinical outcome of HCV-infected military subjects and risk factors contributing to disease progression are largely unknown. Such knowledge is essential for decisions regarding optimal management and prevention of the disease. This study focuses on active duty military subjects infected with HCV, who will be enrolled and observed prospectively over four years (48 months). Liver biopsies are to be performed at initiation if needed and at completion of study to observe for disease progression. Lab evaluation of virologic and biochemical indicators of the disease and detailed information about risk factors, and quality of life are collected by questionnaire every six months.

20050173555 Henry Ford Health System, Detroit, MI USA Population Based Assessment of MHC Class I Antigens Down Regulation as Markers of Increased Risk for Development and Progression of Breast Cancer from Benign Breast Lesions Worsham, Maria J.; Raju, Usha; Abrams, Judith; Jan. 2005; 9 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-00-1-0288 Report No.(s): AD-A433069; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy Despite advances in chemotherapy and radiation therapies, advanced breast cancer still carries a high mortality rate. The need for effective therapies is urgent. The overall aim of this research proposal is to recognize early markers of disease and their interaction with other epidemiological risk factors that can serve as risk indicators for subsequent development of breast cancer from precancerous lesions, and as prognostic markers for progression from primary to metastatic disease. The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules are found on the cell membrane of all cells in the body and are involved in intercellular communications and in complex interactions with the immune system. Cancer cells with reduced or aberrant MHC molecules have been shown to evade immune surveillance and become selected for cancer progression and spread of

214 disease to distant sites of the body. About half of all breast cancers have complete loss or reduced level of MHC class I molecules and this finding has been associated with increased tumor invasiveness and more aggressive cancers with poorer outcome. The outlined studies are expected to better define the clinical significance of abnormal MHC class I molecules in precancerous and invasive breast lesions as markers of immunological events that could affect survival, selection, and outgrowth of precancerous cells, and their subsequent progression to breast cancer. These MHC losses could also mark more aggressive tumors and thus contribute to selection of appropriate treatments in individual cases.

20050173556 Baylor Coll. of Medicine, Houston, TX USA Genetic and Functional Studies of Genes that Regulate DNA-Damage-Induced Cell Death Songyang, Zhou; Nov. 2004; 7 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-01-1-0145 Report No.(s): AD-A433098; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A02, Hardcopy Studies have shown that apoptosis and survival pathways in response to DNA damage play a critical role in breast cancer development and progression. 90% of breast cancer cases are sporadic where mutations of BRCA1/2 have not been detected. Other breast cancer genes must exist. Our group has approached the issue in two ways, a genomic and a proteomic approach. We have established and utilized a novel retrovirus-based genetic screen system to search for genes that would confer resistance to DNA damage induced apoptosis. Multiple clones have been isolated from this genetic screen. Among the genes identified are both novel and known proteins that may be important in DNA-damage responses. To further elucidate the pathways mediated by BARD1, we looked for factors interacting with BARD1 using mass spec sequencing. Several factors have emerged from this study and are being examined. The information obtained from our studies should prove useful for developing new and effective screening strategies, drug targets, and treatment for breast cancer.

20050173557 Texas Univ., Dallas, TX USA The Tetraspanin Metastasis Supressor Gene, KAI1/CD82, and the Proto-Oncogene, Her-2/neu, as Molecular Determinants of Metastasis in Breast Cancer Patients Lombardi, Donald P.; Aug. 2004; 29 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAMD17-03-1-0559 Report No.(s): AD-A433099; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy The purpose of this research is to demonstrate that gene amplification of HER-2/neu is associated with loss of expression of the tetraspanin metastasis suppressor gene, KAI1/CD82, in breast cancer cell lines and patients’ primary breast tumors. The scope is limited to breast cancer and mechanisms of metastasis. Results: 1) We identified three cell lines with gene amplification of HER-2/neu and negative KAI1/CD82 expression to serve as model systems and corroborated these results in primary breast tumors. 2) We found that CO-029, a tetraspanin metastasis promoter gene, was up-regulated in HER-2/neu+ lines. 3) We ectopically expressed HER-2/neu in MCF-7 cells and demonstrated that over-expression of HER-2/neu resulted in loss of expression of KAI1/CD82, but increased expression of CO-029. 4) Finally, we knocked down expression of HER-2/ neu by RNAi and demonstrated that KAI1/CD82 levels increased four-fold. Significance: HER-2/neu signaling regulates tetraspanin gene expression to promote metastatic potential. This novel mechanism may explain why women with gene amplification of HER-2/neu in their breast tumors are at higher risk for metastasis and death. This is the first demonstration of a receptor tyrosine kinase (RTX) that regulates tetraspanin metastasis genes, and this may be the first example of a broader paradigm linking RTK oncogenes to metastasis genes.

20050173558 Georgetown Univ., Washington, DC USA Impact of Culture on Breast Cancer Screening in Chinese American Women Huei-Yu Wang, Judy; Sep. 2004; 151 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A433100; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A08, Hardcopy The purpose of this study is to develop and use culturally appropriate and stage-tailored Chinese language breast cancer brochures to promote older Chinese-American women’s intentions to obtain mammography. A three-year research plan is

215 designed to pursue this purpose. In Year 1, the brochures were developed and refined based on previous findings of cultural and language barriers to breast cancer screening in Chinese women. In Year 2, two-hundred and fifty Chinese women aged 50 and older in the Washington DC area completed a telephone interview regarding their previous screening experience, cultural views, and screening barriers. Participants were randomly assigned to either an intervention group with stage-tailored brochures or a control group with standard brochures. In Year 3, we will mail the appropriate set of materials to participants. Participants will receive a second interview regarding their opinions about the brochures and intention to screening. Descriptive analyses showed that there was no difference in demographics, cultural views, and screening barriers between the two groups. Multivariate analyses will be conducted in the third year to examine effects of brochure intervention. This project has successfully proceeded as scheduled. Preliminary results from the baseline data was reported in this report and have presented in national conferences. DTIC Breast; Cancer; China; Females; Mammary Glands

Hot flashes are a common side effect of ADT and are believed to be qualitatively similar to hot flashes among women - receiving treatment for breast cancer. Currently no assessment protocols exist for objective assessments of hot flashes in prostate cancer patients, making it difficult to evaluate outcomes in clinical trials, educate clinicians and patients, or develop management and treatment strategies. This project will provide basic clinical epidemiological data concerning the nature, prevalence, and correlates of hot flashes among prostate patients receiving ADT, document the negative effects of hot flashes on sleep, fatigue, and quality of life, and compare the accuracy of alternative means of assessing hot flashes. The overarching goal is to not only understand the nature and importance of hot flashes, but to develop methodological standards for the assessment of hot flashes suitable to diverse applications. Results will have implications for the education of oncologists with respect to quality of life issues in prostate cancer, set standards for future research and clinical endeavors, and suggest directions for patient-oriented research to improve the well being of prostate cancer patients.

As initially conceived, this line of investigation was to be principally directed at understanding the contribution of multiphoton absorption. This indeed was a major focus of the research project, but for various reasons the scope of the work was expanded to include identification of the intracellular mechanisms that determine the cellular response to the absorption of optical radiation, and to develop and implement a non-invasive means for measuring the thermal gradients induced by the absorption of laser radiation in tissue. Both of these ancillary projects were successful in that (1) the transcription factor NF-B was found to be activated by visible laser exposure in a way that appeared to be dependent on the absorption of laser energy in the melanin granules of the retinal pigment epithelial cell, and (2) by exploiting the temperature-dependent nature of the proton resonance frequency (PRF), magnetic resonance thermography was successfully

216 used to measure temperature gradients induced in tissue phantoms during laser exposure, and these gradients closely followed the spatial distributions predicted by classical heat diffusion theory.

Even in the absence of thermal noise, radar images exhibit speckle, the salt-and-pepper appearance that shades all of a radar image. An example of this speckle is shown in the Lincoln Lab 33.6 GHz SAR image. While some authors have found it possible to describe sea clutter with such distributions as the K-distribution, we have found that homogeneous terrain clutter is adequately described with the Rayleigh distribution, but that heterogeneous terrain clutter requires the Bayes approach to describe its distribution. This presentation will describe briefly the nature of this speckle. The points presented include: Speckle from homogeneous clutter is Rayleigh distributed and is determined by a single parameter, the mean return. Speckle from heterogeneous clutter can be considered composed of a distribution of homogeneous clutter with varying mean returns. The Bayes rule can be employed to describe the distribution of speckle for heterogeneous clutter. The value of the mean returns found in nature are tied to the physical properties of the clutter and tend to fall within a certain range of values.

This technique is objectionable because it releases large quantities of fine, caustic LiOH dust and it utilizes LiOH inefficiently. This report presents the results of laboratory studies of the CO2 scrubbing capabilities of two new products that might improve on ‘stir-and-fan’, the Battelle Curtain (BC) and the Micropore Reactive Plastic Curtain (RPC). Experiments took place within a sealed hyperbaric chamber. CO2 was added to the chamber at a known mass flow that reproduced what might be encountered in a ‘worst-case’ DISSUB scenario. Natural convection alone circulated gas within the chamber. The mass of BCs or RPCs necessary to limit CO2 to 3% for about 2 days was determined. The total scrubbing capacity (mass of CO2 scrubbed per unit mass of agent) of the BC was 0.756 +/- 0.012 (mean +/- SD), and the comparable value for the RPC was 0.808 +/- 0.007. Both products provided a scrubbing capacity that is close to the stoichiometric limit of the reaction (0.919). Neither product released sufficient caustic dust to prevent handling by a trained individual wearing no personal protective equipment.

Many chemical and biological threats require covering all orifices, including the ears, to achieve minimal protection. Additionally, warfighting involves operating in very close proximity to loud equipment, from which the noise can degrade an individual 5 auditory perception, and over time can degrade general performance. Common hearing protection and occlusion isolates the warfighter from the environment, deflating situational awareness, confidence, and effectiveness, thus putting the warfighter at high risk and compromising his ability to detect and assess threats. Often, soldiers are so uncomfortable with the isolation of hearing protection that they will choose to go without hearing protection and expose themselves to painful and harmful noise, which can result in deafness and reduced effectiveness as warfighters. This effort includes a survey of relevant head-borne hear-through auditory systems, a selection of approaches to a transparent hearing solution, implementation of the approaches, and evaluation.

Typically, a model is represented in the form of a matrix or a set of matrices. When a model is found that satisfies all the given theorems of an algebra, it is called a solution model. This paper considers algebras that can be represented by using a single operation, by way of the Sheffer stroke. The characteristic of needing only one operation to represent an algebra reduces the problem by requiring a search through all instances of a single matrix. This search is simple when the domain size is small, say 2, but for a larger domain size, say 10, the search space increases dramatically. Clearly, a method other than a brute-force, global search is desirable. Most modern model-finding programs use a global search; instead of checking every possible matrix, however a set of heuristics is used that allows the search space to be dramatically smaller and thus increases the likelihood of reaching a solution. An alternative approach is local search. This paper discusses several local search strategies that were applied to the problem of equational satisfiability.

Evaluation, Threat Analysis and Typical Cases Hansson, E.; Hansson, A.; Nov. 2004; 40 pp.; In English Report No.(s): PB2005-103081; FOI-R-1374-SE; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A03, Hardcopy Intrusion detection systems for mobile ad hoc networks are still in their infancy. No products are available today. This sport presents an evaluation often wireless intrusion detection tools with regard to their suitability for tactical mobile ad hoc networks. These tools were evaluated according to proposed and identified requirements for mobile ad hoc network intrusion detection systems. The tools are discussed with regard to their usefulness, applicability and problems. To illustate the needed functionality of an intrusion detection tool, a tactical scenario is described. The scenario is an international mission by coalition forces from Canada, the Netherlands and Sweden. The coalition forces have established a mobile ad hoc network for communication, which is exposed to several types of IT-attacks. To further describe vulnerabilities in mobile ad hoc networks, the exploitable vulnerabilities of mobile ad hoc networks are compared with common tactical radio networks. Futhermore, vulnerabilities in wired and wireless networks are compared in order to demonstrate which threats the property of wireless gives rise to. In the report, a mobile ad hoc network is defined by describing typical properties and also gives examples of mobile ad hoc networks. Thee typical cases are also described.

20050171014 Argonne National Lab., IL OpenAD: Algorithm Implementation User Guide Utke, J.; Apr. 2004; 26 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834715; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge Research in automatic differentiation has led to a number of tools that implement various approaches and algorithms for the most important programming languages. While all these tools have the same mathematical underpinnings, the actual implementations have little in common and mostly are specialized for a particular programming language, compiler internal representation, or purpose. This specialization does not promote an open test bed for experimentation with new algorithms that arise from exploiting structural properties of numerical codes in a source transformation context. OpenAD is being designed to fill this need by providing a framework that allows for relative ease in the implementation of algorithms that operate on a representation of the numerical kernel of a program. Language independence is achieved by using an intermediate XML format and the abstraction of common compiler analyses in Open-Analysis. The intermediate format is mapped to concrete programming languages via two front/back end combinations. The design allows for reuse and combination of already implemented algorithms.

We have been developing a general architecture to support diagrammatic reasoning for Army applications, and in an earlier report 1 we discussed an application in simple maneuver recognition. Our research strategy has been to investigate a variety of applications, each bringing additional requirements for perception and diagrammatic object creating capabilities that can assist the army. One such area is the army’s All Source Analysis System (ASAS) that is designed to automate the processing and analysis of intelligence data from all possible sources. One of its purposes is to keep track of various enemy assets, based on a variety of sensors and reports,

223 including direct sightings of entities. In order to maintain a coherent view, the system has to decide whether a new sighting refers to a new entity, a previously known entity that has since moved (re-identification) or is erroneous. This is the entity re-identification task. We have a built a system that uses an abductive reasoning process together with a diagrammatic reasoning system to solve this problem. In this paper, we look at some of the issues that the entity re-identification task poses for diagrammatic reasoning. DTIC Diagrams; Intelligence

DARWARS is a DARPA program whose goals have evolved over time due to changing requirements and technology opportunities. The original goal as reflected in the RFP was to transform military training by providing continuously available, on- demand, mission-level training for all forces at all echelons. DARPA proposed to create an environment where there will be a set of continuously available virtual training wars in which any unit or individual can participate via personal computer-based systems that will teach and exercise users in the cognitive and affective aspects of their warfare areas via electronic wargames. The current goal as reflected in documentation at the 2004 Interservice/Industry Training, Simulation and Education Conference is ‘to accelerate the development and deployment of the next generation of experiential training systems. These low-cost, web-centric, simulation-based systems take advantage of the ubiquity of the PC and of new technologies, including multiplayer games, virtual worlds, intelligent agents, and on-line communities.

Each sensor apparatus converts one or more environmental observable into information signals, converts the information signals into digital data and appends other discriminating digital data as desired to form a digital data frame. The state of a diode, connected to an antenna with the digital data frame, is modulated and a timing apparatus controls the digital-data-frame start times. The modulated states of the diode connected to a sensor-apparatus antenna are chosen so the angle of the antenna reflection coefficient is modulated between two values separated by approximately 180 degrees, so a carrier signal received by the antenna effects a bi-phase modulated signal containing the digital data frame that is reflected by the sensor-apparatus antenna toward the reader receiver antenna.

The model incorporates resin flow through the preform, compaction and relaxation of the preform, and viscosity and cure kinetics of the resin. The computer model can be used to analyze the resin flow details, track the thickness change of the preform, predict the total infiltration time and final fiber volume fraction of the parts, and determine whether the resin could completely infiltrate and uniformly wet out the preform.

First, the Fast Multipole Method (FMM) and its multilevel variants (MLFMA) have evolved into a powerful technique allowing researchers to solve large scale problems in electromagnetics [1]. The other is in the area of commodity parallel computing. The development of fast but inexpensive microprocessors, the evolution of Linux as a reliable and efficient operating system, and message passing standards (MPI) have prompted various researchers to construct inexpensive high performance parallel computers from commodity components. See [2] for an interesting discussion on the potential of such a system. Derived from text Electromagnetism; Multipoles; Parallel Processing (Computers)

Industrial strength products, such as the Fast Illinois Solver Code (FISC), which use MLFMA for accelerating the solution time are now available. Using FISC, researchers have been able to solve problems of unprecedented sizes. As a continuation of the efforts towards the solution of very large scale problems_ we have been developing a parallel version of the MLFMA for message passing parallel computers and workstation clusters. The primary objective of this work is to develop a portable library of parallel MLFMA, which can be retrofitted into existing sequential programs to achieve very high degree of acceleration. In order to maintain the portability across various parallel computers, including network of workstations, the Message Passing Interface (MPI) was chosen as the communication library. Some of the preliminary results from this library, called the ScaleME, were reported in. In this paper, we report the development and performance of a Parallel Combined Field Integral Equation Solver, which uses ScaleME as its accelerator. Using this new code, we have been able to solve problems of a much bigger size than that was possible with previously available ones. Indeed, we have been able to solve a 3.1 million unknown problem using 8 nodes of an SGI Origin 2000 super computer. We have also been able to solve a 600,000 (at I.SGHz) unknowns problem on an Orion cluster of 16 personal computers runing Linux. Details of this work and the performance of the parallel library on this Linux cluster is reported in a companion paper.

Researchers have always struggled to format this data into a usable format for their investigations. And now that digital cartographic programs including geographic information systems (GIS) and photogrammetric systems are widely used, the

225 disparate datasets must also be formatted such that they accurately overlay [1]. For a digital mapping package, this usually means that the data must be translated to the same map projection using a matching coordinate reference system (CRS). While planetary CRSs are well defined [2], when mixing different map projections, datasets, and software packages, there are many potential pitfalls. Accurate documentation of the dataset s CRS and map projection is even more vital with the advent of on-line or streamed databases [1]. This abstract will try to list a few of the problematic issues in the current environment and also report on an emerging standard which may help software packages to interface more successfully, whether the software is locally run or via the Internet.

20050170452 Texas A&M Univ., USA Fluid Film Bearing Code Development 1995; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The next generation of rocket engine turbopumps is being developed by industry through Government-directed contracts. These turbopumps will use fluid film bearings because they eliminate the life and shaft-speed limitations of rolling-element bearings, increase turbopump design flexibility, and reduce the need for turbopump overhauls and maintenance. The design of the fluid film bearings for these turbopumps, however, requires sophisticated analysis tools to model the complex physical behavior characteristic of fluid film bearings operating at high speeds with low viscosity fluids. State-of-the-art analysis and design tools are being developed at the Texas A&M University under a grant guided by the NASA Lewis Research Center. The latest version of the code, HYDROFLEXT, is a thermohydrodynamic bulk flow analysis with fluid compressibility, full inertia, and fully developed turbulence models. It can predict the static and dynamic force response of rigid and flexible pad hydrodynamic bearings and of rigid and tilting pad hydrostatic bearings. The Texas A&M code is a comprehensive analysis tool, incorporating key fluid phenomenon pertinent to bearings that operate at high speeds with low-viscosity fluids typical of those used in rocket engine turbopumps. Specifically, the energy equation was implemented into the code to enable fluid properties to vary with temperature and pressure. This is particularly important for cryogenic fluids because their properties are sensitive to temperature as well as pressure. As shown in the figure, predicted bearing mass flow rates vary significantly depending on the fluid model used. Because cryogens are semicompressible fluids and the bearing dynamic characteristics are highly sensitive to fluid compressibility, fluid compressibility effects are also modeled. The code contains fluid properties for liquid hydrogen, liquid oxygen, and liquid nitrogen as well as for water and air. Other fluids can be handled by the code provided that the user inputs information that relates the fluid transport properties to the temperature.

20050170490 Texas Instruments, Inc., Dallas, TX, USA Analysis and Modeling of Systematic and Defect Related Yield Issues During Early Development of a New Technology Guldi, R.; Watts, J.; PapaRao, S.; Catlett, D.; Montgomery, J.; Sacki, T.; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 7-12; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources In every generation of new technology development, yield management engineers face new challenges in the detection and modeling of physical defects and systematic yield inhibitors. This paper discusses several approaches to yield modeling that were useful during the initial development stage of 64M DRAM technology. These approaches combined electrical source defect analysis (ESDA) supplemented by end-of-line failure analysis (F/A) with inline defect monitoring of product using sensitive inspection recipes at frequent processing steps to identify and track the many systematic yield and particle issues that must be overcome. The initial stages of device development present a difficult challenge to yield management engineers not only because smaller random defects become important in limiting yield but especially because multiple systematic yield issues dominate the failure Paretos. These systematic problems are associated with process margin issues, such as patterning small features, layer integration issues, edge related problems, or the integrity of ancillary structures (alignment marks, test die features, etc). The onset of the yield ramp is controlled by the resolution of systematic yield issues. Several techniques are useful for identifying and tracking these issues. Conventional inline defect inspections reveal many problems, especially gross situations, but sensitive inspections are required to reveal subtle issues, such as marginal hole printing. End-of-line F/A on product wafers is also essential, since even the most sensitive inspections can not detect certain failure modes (e.g. thin microbridging). In general, as many as forty systematic issues must be solved before a new generation of memory technology begins its yield ramp. Additionally, a major redesign or shrink can add another fifteen to twenty new systematic issues. In either case, approximately one-third of these are detectable using inline inspection, and another third are detectable by cross-sectioning after the appropriate fabrication step, but the remaining third require end-of-line F/A based on electrical fail signatures. Since these systematics may involve reticle changes, process structural changes, process redesign, or even new processing equipment, each one may take several months to complete. Hence it is critical to identify all issues as soon as possible so that they can be addressed in parallel. This is done by an aggressive inline defect inspection strategy, discussed.

DynaSpeak is a speech recognition software product developed by SRI International that has been shown to function well in quiet environments. However, the system has not yet been evaluated in noise environments representative of Army operational environments. This report summarizes a study that was conducted to evaluate the performance of the DynaSpeak software in the presence of two types of noise: steady state noise obtained from a tracked vehicle and impulse noise obtained from gunfire. Simultaneous recordings were made from 12 participants wearing two microphones: a Gentex noise-canceling boom microphone and a Temco HG-17 bone conduction microphone. The 12 participants verbalized call signs and commands which were analyzed by the speech recognition software. The results of the present study show that the DynaSpeak software functions well through the boom microphone in moderately high steady state noise (90 decibels A-weighted DBA) with error rates for words of 2% to 5%. However, the performance of the system with the same boom microphone in high steady state noise levels (110 dBA) or in moderately high impulse noise levels (90 dBA) does not meet the requirements for military applications. Error rates for words in these conditions ranged from 14% to 40%. If the DynaSpeak software is to be used in environments of impulse noise or high levels of steady state noise, the performance of the system must be enhanced.

20050173178 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Scheduling Ammunition Loading and Unloading for U.S. Navy Ships in San Diego Billings, Roger L.; Mar. 2005; 58 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432306; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Tomahawk cruise missiles (TCM) cost over one million dollars and are in short supply. U.S. Navy ships require TCM and other conventional ammunition be loaded in appropriate amounts prior to deploying to sea. A typical deployment lasts for six months and, when completed, any remaining ammunition must be unloaded and made ready for other deploying ships. For ships under Commander, Naval Surface Force U.S. Pacific Fleet (SURFPAC), about 3,500 tons of ammunition must be loaded and unloaded annually; this currently costs 14 million dollars for just pilots, tugboats and fuel. This thesis formulates and solves an integer linear program, Surface Navy Scheduler (SNSKED), to prescribe an ammunition load and unload schedule for San Diego homeported ships. SNSKED seeks a schedule with minimized costs subject to constraints on ships availability, port capabilities and support assets. We test SNSKED on a realistic quarterly scenario consisting of 19 combatant ships, three weapons stations, two ammunition ships, five mission types, two ammunition types, and three ways of loading ammunition. SNSKED provides optimal schedules that reduce costs by over 16 percent. We also use SNSKED to evaluate different operational policies, ammunition port utilization, and ammunition loading times.

This thesis analyzes the predictive accuracy of the RAB. Data were gathered from Commander, Navy Recruiting Command (CNRC) and the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) for a sample of recruiters on duty in 2003. Data on the recruiters’ RAB score, monthly production, and Naval Recruiting District (NRD) characteristics were obtained from Commander, Navy Recruiting Command (CNRC). Demographic information on the recruiters was obtained from DMDC. Multivariate models were estimated to determine the effects of the RAB score on the average monthly production of recruiters. The results of the models showed that the RAB score is positively

229 correlated with recruiter productivity. The models also indicated that neither NRD characteristics nor personal demographic characteristics affected the relationship between the RAB score and recruiter production. The results of the study suggest that the RAB can be used to predict recruiter productivity. Further research should be conducted on implementing the RAB in the recruiter selection process. Additionally, the relationship of RAB score to recruiter productivity and personal demographic characteristics should be investigated more extensively.

Current methods to disseminate IADS analysis are manually in nature and time intensive to produce meaningful reports. Analyst conduct foreign country studies to efficiently portray many aspects of foreign IADS. To expand the capability to disseminate critical IADS threat information in a quick and efficient manner, the Joint Integrated Air Defense System View (J-IADS-View) was developed over a two year span. J-IADS-View is an automated computer program that equips the information operations analyst with a tool to create dynamic and animated visual of foreign threat IADS information. J-IADS-View can be used for multiple tasks like pilot training and playback capability, report generation and dissemination, preparation of briefing slides and presentations. J-IADS-View allows the analysts to add audio tracks to their products. It includes the capability to edit scenes and refine them with the analyst creativity to shape the final product.

230 This thesis describes the analysis, development, and testing of a new, digitized format for the Naval Nuclear Officer application. The methodology consisted of creating a beta officer application CD that was tested in the eight Naval Recruiting Districts (NRDs) within Region West. Online surveys were conducted with Navy recruiters at the NRD level to gauge satisfaction with the current application process and solicit feedback. The effectiveness of the application CD was analyzed using the responses of the surveys. The results indicate that most officer recruiters in Region West think the CD is an overall improvement over the current application format. The application CD format merits further exploration and development based on the positive results of the surveys and beta-testing. In the short term, Commander, Navy Recruiting Command (CNRC) should provide online support, including a Web site to aid officer application processing. Further, CNRC should seek to simplify and streamline the officer application forms. DTIC Evaluation; Navy

20050173264 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Locomotion in Virtual Environments and Analysis of a New Virtual Walking Device Onder, Murat; Mar. 2005; 79 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432517; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This thesis investigates user interfaces for locomotion in virtual environments (VEs). It looks initially at virtual environments and user interfaces, then concentrates on locomotion interfaces, specifically on the Omni-Directional Treadmill (ODT) (Darken and Cockayne, 1997) and a new virtual walking device, LocoX, which was developed at the MOVES Institute, Naval Postgraduate School. It analyzes and compares the ODT and LocoX in terms of the application of human ability requirements (HARs). Afterwards, it compares the results of the analysis of the ODT and LocoX to real-world locomotion. The analysis indicates that LocoX, a new way of exploring virtual environments (VEs) , provides a close match to real locomotion on some subtasks in VEs-- compared to the ODT--and produces relatively closer representation on some subtasks of real world locomotion. This thesis concludes that LocoX has great potential and that the locomotion provided is realistic enough to simulate certain kinds of movements inherent to real-world locomotion. LocoX still requires maturation and development, but is nonetheless a viable locomotion technique for VEs and future game-based simulations.

20050173298 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Edinburgh, Australia A Tracker Assessment Tool for Comparing Tracker Performance Colegrove, S. B.; Davcy, S. J.; Cheung, B.; Mar. 2005; 41 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432575; DSTO-TR-1694; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This technical report describes a method for assessing the performance of automatic tracking systems against various

231 metrics. These metrics are grouped in the categories of track establishment, track maintenance, track error and false tracks. A desired performance level is defined for each metric, and the probability that a particular track will meet this performance level is empirically approximated from archived sensor data. The individual metric probabilities are combined using a weighted average to produce an overall tracker rating. An important feature of the approach is that absolute truth is assumed to be unavailable, and output of the trackers under test is instead compared with incomplete truth. The incomplete truth is produced by manual inspection of the data and through editing the output of the best available tracking algorithm. This report also discusses an implementation of the assessment method for Over-the-Horizon Radar. This software package is referred to as the Tracker Assessment Tool, and is used to compare four alternative tracking algorithms. DTIC Automatic Control; Tracking (Position)

20050173311 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Developing Dependable Software for a System-of-Systems Caffall, Dale S.; Mar. 2005; 264 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432614; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Capturing and realizing the desired system-of-systems behavior in the traditional natural language development documents is a complex issue given that the legacy systems in a system-of-systems exhibit independent behaviors. As a result of a development strategy of interconnecting systems, the emergent behavior of the system-of-systems cannot be predicted. In our consideration of dependable software for a system-of-systems, we used our case study of the Ballistic Missile Defense System to study the development of architectural views, distributed-system and real-time design considerations, components, contract interfaces, and the application of formal methods in system-of-systems specifications. We developed a prototype of a battle manager and demonstrated a slice of the formal model of the battle manager. Given the technical contributions of this research, we conclude that it is possible to develop an architecture from which we can reason about the controlling software for a system-of-systems. Furthermore, we can realize the controlling software for a system-of-systems through the concepts of component-based software engineering. Finally, we can apply formal methods in the design and development of the controlling software for a system-of-systems by specifying the requirements for the software components with assertions and employing a runtime-verification tool to verify the desired behavior as specified by the assertions.

20050173312 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Propagation Modeling of Wireless Systems in Shipboard Compartments Chaabane, Adnen; Mar. 2005; 115 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432615; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In today’s navy, it is becoming more and more important to reach all areas onboard a ship with key technical resources. In order to accomplish this goal, the already existing physical networks need to be complemented with wireless capability. A sophisticated Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN) can provide that vital connectivity to the ship’s network resources from almost anywhere on the ship. It would allow sailors to access critical information and immediately communicate with others throughout the ship from any standard wireless device (PDA, laptop and many other hand-held devices). In addition, WLANs greatly mitigate problems due to physical damage to wires or fiber optic cables that are used today. Because the navy’s emphasis is on building ships with reduced manning, advanced technology, and lower cost in mind, the idea of a WLAN, which has a deep impact on all those areas, has been of a growing interest to the Navy. The purpose of this thesis is to analyze, model, and simulate a wireless environment on board a variety of naval ship compartments, using the Urbana code. Starting from known inputs (frequency, ship compartment geometry, material properties, propagation computation model, and antenna type), analytical results reflecting the propagation mechanisms, coverage area, and security posture of the WLAN are presented. Variable inputs can then be optimized to achieve a desired signal distribution and to meet security requirements for a specific shipboard environment.

The algorithm exploits a property of the generic structure of the ordered GIP statistic the origins of which have been theoretically developed by the authors and a single adjustable parameter related to the Type I error of incorrectly excising target-free training data to adaptively determine the thresholds for excising target-contaminated training data. An iterative application of the method improves the distinction between non-homogeneities and background clutter which increases the number of target-contaminated training bins excised. Moreover, the editing method has been extended to reduced degree-of-freedom (DoF) STAP implementations such as multi-bin post-Doppler STAP. As a consequence the method is practically implementable for realistic scenarios with very limited a priori knowledge (i.e. only the number of DoFs is required).

20050173387 Army Armament Research and Development Command, Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD USA MATLAB Algorithms for Rapid Detection and Embedding of Palindrome and Emordnilap Electronic Watermarks in Simulated Chemical and Biological Image Data Robbins, Ronny C.; Dec. 2004; 5 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432775; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Electronic watermarks are used everyday to protect copyrighted materials on the web. But watermarks can also be used to inform the viewer of data (such as photographs and images) as to important aspects of the image such as ownership, location and environmental conditions during the image’s creation. This paper examines the use of palindrome images, images in which the data can be flipped in the left-right direction and leave the image untouched. This is similar to words such as RADAR which when flipped left right is still RADAR. An emordnilap image forms a totally different image when flipped. This is similar to words such as STOP which when flipped left right gives the new word POTS. Emordnilap is palindrome spelled backwards. This paper explores the use of MATLAB algorithms in the rapid detection and embedding of palindrome and emordnilap electronic watermarks in simulated chemical and biological Image Data.

233 20050173417 Military Academy, West Point, NY USA Determining Simulation Requirements and Identifying a Course of Action to More Efficiently Support Acquisition Decision-Making for the Current and Future Force Infantry Warrior Boylan, G. L.; Tollefson, E. S.; Kwinn, M. J., Jr.; Martin, P. G.; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432832; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Maintaining an edge during this time of unprecedented technological growth requires that the Army field Infantry soldier systems quickly. However, the risk of doing so without some assessment of utility is quite high. Accordingly, the acquisition community must develop its ability to predict the operational effectiveness and benefits of proposed systems with an ever-increasing degree of accuracy. To this end, the Army has resorted to combat simulations. However, the representation of the individual soldier within the context of such simulations has evolved at a markedly slower pace than other representations. In this paper, we will discuss the unique simulation requirements we developed to represent the Infantry soldier in adequate detail, the alternative we recommended to fulfill those requirements and to support acquisition decision-making, as well as the first phase of implementation of that recommendation and how it will impact the current and future force.

20050173441 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Hardware Interface to Connect an AN/SPS-65 Radar to an SRC-6E reconfigurable Computer King, Timothy L.; Mar. 2005; 127 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432886; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) A hardware interface is designed, developed, constructed, and tested to interface a naval radar to the SRC-6E reconfigurable computer. The U.S. Navy AN/ SPS-65 radar provides in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) channels along with the AGC voltage to the hardware interface in analog form. The hardware interface receives a sampling clock from the SRC-6E and in turn performs the requisite attenuation and digital conversion before presenting the signals to the SRC-6E through its CHAIN port. The results show that the SRC-6E can effectively generate a sampling clock to drive the analog-to-digital converters and that real-time radar data can be brought into the SRC-6E via its high speed CHAIN port for performing high speed digital signal processing DTIC Analog to Digital Converters; Computer Programs; Detection; Digital Computers; Radar Tracking; Reconfigurable Hardware; Target Acquisition

As the Army transforms there is a renewed interest in the concept designs of new projectile-target weapons systems. As the modular systems are developed, optimized and ultimately integrated into the continuously evolving FCS, there is a critical need for next generation state-of-the-art computer modeling and simulation tools. In addition, there is also a critical need for a single, validated, maintainable high performance computing (HPC) code which captures the physics of short term dynamic events to drastically reduce simulation times. In this paper, we present a new and advanced HPC based multi-scale in time projectile-target simulation environment for lethality and survivability that is useful for FCS design concepts. Illustrative examples are considered that demonstrate the capabilities of the proposed approach.

234 The MONARCH project is sponsored by DARPA under the Polymorphous Computer Architecture Program. MONARCH is developing a revolutionary chip distinguished from other PCA systems by unifying two radically different architectures into a single flexible VLSI device. MONARCH architecture combines the DIVA PIM architecture, developed by USC/ISI as part of the DARPA-sponsored Data Intensive Program, and HPPS (High Performance Processing System) developed by Raytheon with IRAD funds. We previously presented the motivation for merging these two architectures (HPEC 2002). We have since developed the detailed specifications for the micro architecture of the MONARCH chip and also the software environment, run time system and on-chip communication network. Furthermore, we have completed the evaluation of several benchmarks and we have shown that the MONARCH architecture is capable of achieving a very high stability factor that allows the MONARCH architecture to process data at near peak throughput speeds.

20050173527 Army Research Lab., Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD USA Virtual Experiments to Determine Behind-Armor Debris for Survivability Analysis Prakash, Anand; Dec. 2004; 7 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A433014; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) When a projectile perforates the armor of a vehicle, the residual projectile entering the vehicle is accompanied by a much wider cloud of behind-armor debris (BAD) generated by stress wave interactions. BAD plays an important role in the evaluation of survivability of crew and components in a vehicle under fire. Survivability and vulnerability analysis codes (e.g., MUVES) require an input of BAD characteristics of the armor for each threat projectile. This data is currently generated by conducting laboratory experiments in a standard set-up in which each threat projectile is fired on the actual armor and the BAD pattern is captured on witness plates. Conducting survivability analyses of vehicles in the design phase, before the armor is actually built, poses a challenging problem. To solve this problem, we have come up with an innovative approach to determine BAD characteristics by conducting virtual experiments of the standard set-up. We do this by conducting physics-based three-dimensional (3-D) computer simulations with the CTH wave code. We obtain BAD characteristics for impacts of kinetic energy rods and shaped charges on metal and ceramics plates, including some yawed rod impacts. An additional advantage of these simulations is that they provide important details of the debris field that are difficult to obtain in laboratory

235 experiments. The expected impact of this work would be to improve the timeliness, accuracy, and cost of survivability analyses for Army’s decision makers. DTIC Armor; Computerized Simulation; Debris; Kinetic Energy; Military Vehicles; Projectiles; Vulnerability

EFW is a host-based, centrally controlled firewall system consisting of network interface cards and the Policy Server software. A network consisting of EFW clients and a Policy Server is set up in the Advanced Network Laboratory at the Naval Postgraduate School. The Smartbits packet generator is used to simulate realistic data transfer environment. The evaluation is performed centered on two main categories: performance analysis and security capability tests. TTCP program and a script written in TCL are used to perform throughput and packet loss tests respectively. The penetration and vulnerability tests are conducted in order to analyze the security capabilities of EFW. Symantec Personal Firewall is used as a representative application firewall for comparing test results. Our study shows that EFW has better performance especially in connections with high amounts of encrypted packets and more effective in preventing insider attacks. However, current implementation of EFW has some weaknesses such as not allowing sophisticated rules that application firewalls usually do. We recommend that EFW be used as one of the protection mechanisms in a system based on the defense-in-depth concept that consists of application firewalls, intrusion detection systems and gateway protocols.

20050173331 Mitre Corp., McLean, VA USA An Alternative Paradigm for Routing in Wireless Ad Hoc Networks Stine, John A.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432644; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) We propose a new paradigm for routing in ad hoc networks based on the collection and dissemination of node states. This paradigm assumes nodes have location awareness and can measure the received signal strength of incoming transmissions. Thus, nodes can discover the pathloss in their environment. This information along with other information relevant to the node is combined into a node’s state that is disseminated throughout the network. This state information not only supports all nodes discovering the network’s topology but provides the very information that makes network management, network engineering, traffic engineering, and spectrum management feasible. This contribution of this summary is a brief description of how node state routing (NSR) paradigm enables these management and engineering capabilities. DTIC Networks; Wireless Communication

This goal for economic prosperity is linked to globalization and this information technologies that tie the world’s economics and occupants together. A primary means of communication and information sharing is the Internet. The USA (US) is currently the world’s largest user and proponent of the Internet. The massive sharing of information is crucial for US economic development and expansion and is in line with the American concept of itself. However the Internet as a method of sharing information has a dark side. The information accessible level of communications linkages and sheer interconnectiveness of the World-Wide-Web leaves the US vulnerable to violent non-state actors using the Internet. These groups will use the Internet and its architecture to command & control collect information target possibly attack access and disseminate the results of their activities with minimal exposure to traditional means of national intelligence collection and detection. The architecture is allowing violent non-state actors to attack the US over its own systems and designs. This paper will look at this phenomenon the scope of the problem draw conclusions and make some recommendations. DTIC Fruits; Internets; Security

In this paper, we evaluate the performance of the distributed Beacon protocol as the topology changes and as a function of the election metric under various conditions. We propose the ‘domain age’ as the primary election metric to maintain more stable domains than ‘lowest ID’, yet requires no more information be collected. We quantify the increased stability using OPNET simulations. We believe that a combination of domain age, node degree and domain strength will provide the Beacon protocol with the ability to maintain good domains in future battlefield networks.

Many organizations are replacing portions of their traditional phone systems to gain the benefit of cost savings and enhanced feature sets through the use of IPT. The Coast Guard has an interest in exploiting this technology, and has taken its first steps by implementing IPT at Headquarters Support command in Washinton D. C. This thesis investigates the successful implementation practices and security policies of commercial, educationa, and goverment organizations in order to create recommendations for IPT security policies recommendations for IPT security policies and implementation practices relevant to the Coast Guard. It includes the discussion of the public switched telephone network, an overview of IPT, IPT security issues, the safeguards available to counter security threata, the tradeoffs (e.g., voice quality, cost) reguired to mitigate security risks, and current TPT security policy and implementation guidance. It is supported by the study and analyaia of the IPT system at Coast Guard Headguarters. The Coast Guard gains an understanding ci the advantages, limitations, and security issues that it will face as it considers further implementation of IPT.

20050173468 Army Command and General Staff Coll., Fort Leavenworth, KS USA Intelligence Collection: Supporting Full Spectrum Dominance and Network Centric Warfare? Moses, Bruce D.; Jan. 2004; 82 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432929; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This monograph examines whether the Army’s information collection efforts are supporting the goal of full spectrum dominance and whether these are in harmony with the concepts of network centric warfare. Full spectrum dominance and network centric warfare are central themes in Department of Defense and Army transformation literature and both require information collection and an understanding of the role of cognition empowered by networking for success. More specifically, it examines whether Army collection efforts are focusing too heavily on collection for combat operations and leaving it unable to fully exploit the access to adversary systems during stability operations. This study found that the institutional Army is not fully supporting the goal of full spectrum dominance or network centric warfare but is still myopically investing heavily in efforts to defeat the adversary’s conventional capabilities with standoff collection technology and is not creating the organizational, systems and technical architectures necessary to leverage the power of a fully networked force.

In order to position the photon beams accurately, a slow global orbit feedback system has been developed. The dominant causes of orbit motion at the ALS are temperature variation and insertion device motion. This type of motion can be removed using slow global orbit feedback with a data rate of a few Hertz. The remaining orbit motion in the ALS is only 1-3 micron rms. Slow orbit feedback does not require high computational throughput. At the ALS, the global orbit feedback algorithm, based on the singular valued decomposition method, is coded in MATLAB and runs on a control room workstation. Using the MATLAB environment to develop, test, and run the storage ring control algorithms has proven to be a fast and efficient way to operate the ALS.

A reintegration protocol increases system survivability by allowing a node that has suffered a fault to regain state consistent with the operational nodes. The protocol is verified in the Symbolic Analysis Laboratory (SAL), where bounded model checking and decision procedures are used to verify infinite-state systems by k-induction. The protocol and its environment are modeled as synchronizing timeout automata. Because k-induction is exponential with respect to k, we optimize the formal model to reduce the size of k. Also, the reintegrator’s event-triggered behavior is conservatively modeled as time-triggered behavior to further reduce the size of k and to make it invariant to the number of nodes modeled. A corollary is that a clique avoidance property is satisfied. Author Real Time Operation; Program Verification (Computers); Fault Tolerance

Over 100 environment and analysis models are integrated into the menu-based tool. EWB, which was developed for and under the guidance of the NASA Lewis Research Center, is built atop the Module Integrator and Rule-based Intelligent Analytic Database (MIRIAD) architecture. This allows every module in EWB to communicate information to other modules in a transparent manner from the user’s point of view. It removes the tedious and error-prone steps of entering data by hand from one model to another. EWB runs under UNIX operating systems (SGI and SUN workstations) and under MS Windows (3.x, 95, and NT) operating systems. MIRIAD, the unique software that makes up the core of EWB, provides the flexibility to easily modify old models and incorporate new ones as user needs change. The MIRIAD approach separates the computer assisted engineering (CAE) tool into three distinct units: 1) A modern graphical user interface to present information; 2) A data dictionary interpreter to coordinate analysis; and 3) A database for storing system designs and analysis results. The user interface is externally programmable through ASCII data files, which contain the location and type of information to be displayed on the screen. This approach provides great flexibility in tailoring the look and feel of the code to individual user needs. MIRIADbased applications, such as EWB, have utilities for viewing tabulated parametric study data, XY line plots, contour plots, and three-dimensional plots of contour data and system geometries. In addition, a Monte Carlo facility is provided to allow statistical assessments (including uncertainties) in models or data.

The RSP loans systems to multiple users including the military, first- responders, research organizations, and academia. These users provide feedback in their specific domain, accelerating research and development improvements of robotic systems. which in turn allow the joint warfighter to benefit from such changes more quickly than from traditional acquisition cycles. Over the past year, RSP assets have been used extensively for pre-deployment operator and field training of joint Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) teams, and for the training of Navy Reservist repair technicians. These Reservists are part of the Robotic Systems Combat Support Platoon (RSCSP), attached to Space and Naval Warfire Systems Center, San Diego. The RSCSP maintains and repairs RSP assets and provides deployable technical support for users of robotic systems. Currently, a small team from the RSCSP is deployed at Camp Victory repairing and maintaining man-portable unmanned ground vehicles (UGVs) used by joint EOD teams in Operation Iraqi Freedom. The focus of this paper is to elaborate on the RSP and RSCSP and their role as invaluable resources for spiral development in the robotics community by gaining first-hand technical feedback from the warfighter and other users.

Large distributed arrays of deployable configurable sensors cooperating to achieve system-level goals may provide the solution for such problems

241 whether acting as independent networks or as agents gathering localized information to aid large assets. The primary challenge of dynamic allocation of network assets (DANA) is the cost of computation and communication of global optimization and real-time configuration of individual sensors. Scaling of network size generally yields an exponential increase in optimization computation and a prohibitive need for communication bandwidth for scheduling of individual sensors making such approaches of limited real-time use. This paper presents the novel methodology of Self-Organizing Networks (SONets) where small sensors with local decision capabilities and overall system performance knowledge yield an emergent behavior aimed at maximizing system information in a communication-constrained architecture while eliminating (or reducing) the need for sensors to be actively scheduled. Preliminary results demonstrate promising performance in a multi-target/ multi-sensor environment. The SONets methodology is based on sensors making local decisions on which mode to operate in including data collection broadcast, etc. based on perceived value of expected return and thresholding with the capability of adaptively self-organizing Sensors update learning indices (adaptive weights) based on expected return and observation of overall system knowledge. The result is an emergent behavior that may be supervised and altered through general broadcasts from a centralized unit. DTIC Targets; Tracking (Position)

The Future Force must be highly mobile, agile, and lethal to ensure its dominance in the future battlefield. This dominance is reliant on the ability to see and understand first (situational awareness). Persistent and pervasive sensing and processing, coupled with greatly increased speed of information flow, information assimilation, and decisive action, at and between all levels of our force, are necessary to fulfill this requirement. The USA Army is most vulnerable in urban terrain. This highly constrained, complex environment presents a significant challenge to US forces, particularly dismounted infantry and military intelligence because opposing force activity is readily masked or obscured by background noise (commerce, schools, religious activity etc.). This paper proposes an intelligent interaction between the digitized dismounted units and military intelligence, for the significant benefit to both.

20050173414 Redlands Univ., CA USA Sustaining the Army Training Mission by Re-Thinking Decision Support Systems: Shifting from Decision-Making Individuals to Sense-Making Agents Ekbia, Hamid R.; Dec. 2004; 10 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432829; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Decision Support Systems (DSS), as computerized systems that implement and support complex decision processes, have evolved significantly during the last four decades. However, this evolution has been dominantly bottom-up and technology- driven, with new emerging technologies supporting the traditional concept of decision making as a basically rational process. In an effort to reconceptualize decision making, this paper follows a top-down approach, starting with a new conceptual framework and then exploring the technologies and tools that can support it. To this end, the paper proposes four major conceptual shifts: a pragmatic shift from problems in the mind to problematic situations in the world, a constructive shift from passive decision making to active sense making, a normative shift from accuracy and certainty to plausibility and transparency, and a technical shift in our understanding of technology as enabler to technology as transformer of human activity. These shifts are in harmony with current theoretical trends in DSS and related disciplines, e.g., the growing emphasis on multiple perspectives in DSS, on multi-agent systems in Artificial Intelligence, on distributed cognition in psychology, and on sense making in organization science. By focusing our attention on the collective, distributed, and constructive character of cognition, the framework that results from these shifts provides a useful way of thinking about DSS. Furthermore, ideas from science and technology studies portray a tightly interwoven picture of technologies and their social and organizational context, which is very different from the traditional view of technologies as mere tools. Brought to the realm of DSS, this calls for a fresh look at the relationship between information technologies and decision-making processes. DTIC Decision Making; Decision Support Systems; Education

Existing multirobot task allocation algorithms treat tasks as simple, indivisible entities. However, when dealing with complex tasks, the structure and semantics of the tasks can be exploited to produce more efficient team plans by giving individual robots the ability to come up with new ways to perform a task, or by allowing multiple robots to cooperate by sharing the subcomponents of a task, or both. In this paper we detail a method for efficiently allocating a set of complex tasks to a robot team. The advantages of explicitly modeling complex tasks during the allocation process is demonstrated by a comparison of our approach with existing task allocation algorithms in an area reconnaissance scenario. An implementation on a team of outdoor robots further validates our approach. DTIC Allocations; Robots

A Voronoi diagram may be generated by any finite set of points in a plane. For mobile robot control each point in the plane represents a Voronoi classifier. The classifiers are used to generate Voronoi regions. As a robot comes into a Voronoi region the classifier will act as a control input; providing a new waypoint for the vehicle to follow. The robot moves towards the new waypoint unless interrupted by an obstacle or wall. The robot will get a new waypoint from the classifier in the robot’s current Voronoi region. This process continues until the robot has terminated at a desired position (goal) or runs out of power. DTIC Autonomous Navigation; Classifications; Classifiers; Control; Navigation; Robots

This is the consequence of the development of the fast multipole algorithms (FMA) and the multilevel fast multipole algorithms (MLFMA). Such algorithms allow a matrix-vector multiplication to be performed in O(N log N) operations or less for many scattering problems. Moreover, the memory requirements of these methods are O(N log N), or almost matrix free. Using the fast matrix-vector multiplications in an iterative solver, problems for integral equations involving millions of unknowns have been solved recently. One of most important mathematical formulas in FMA is the addition theorem. In the numerical implementation of the addition theorem, the infinite series should be truncated. The error analysis for the truncation error in the scalar Green’s functions has been done by many researchers. In this paper, the error analysis for the truncation error in the multipole expansion of vector Green’s functions is given.

The implementation of orthogonal wavelets with infinite support width, such as the Battle-Lemari6 wavelets and the Meyer wavelets, requires a truncation operation which is associated with a certain solution error [1]. In contrast, the Daubechies orthogonal wavelets (DOW) which are compactly supported can be used without any truncation. The efficiency of the DOW for the solution of integral equations was analyzed in [2] for the

244 scattering by conducting cylinders. The resulting sparse matrix equations were solved by using the conjugate gradient (CG) method with storage space required only for the nonzero entries of the sparse matrix. The semi-orthogonal wavelets (SOW) were also applied to the solution of integral equations [3] and their performance was compared with that of the Battle-Lemari_ orthogonal wavelets in [4], where the matrix entries had been evaluated by numerical integrations. The SOW were also compared with the DOW in [5], where a matrix transformation was implemented to reduce the computational effort necessary to perform numerical integrations. It has been reported that the use of the SOW yields more highly sparse matrices and a better solution accuracy when a direct solver is adopted than the use of orthogonal wavelets [4], [5]. However, the efficiency of the iterative solution methods for the sparse matrix equations obtained by using the SOW has not been investigated.

R.; IEEE Antennas and Propagation Society International Symposium, Volume 1; [1999], pp. 360-363; In English; See also 20050169565; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources The application of wavelets for the solution of integral equations for field problems has been recently investigated by a number of researchers. The classical method of moments (MoM) leads to dense matrix equations, whose numerical solution is expensive for large matrix orders. The main reason for using wavelets is that it yields sparse MoM matrices. Wavelets have been implemented for the solution of integral equations in two ways. One is to employ them directly both as basis functions and as weighting functions in the MoM, with the entries of resulting matrices being evaluated numerically. Consequently, a large amount of computational work is required to perform numerical integrations. The computational cost is substantially reduced by implementing wavelet matrix transformations. In this approach, the MoM matrix equation is first obtained by using some local basis functions and weighting functions, and then a matrix transformation is applied, with the transform matrices constructed by using wavelets. In general, the transformed matrices are highly sparse after thresholding. Derived from text Matrices (Mathematics); Orthogonality; Wavelet Analysis

245 The ‘Discrete Dipole Approximation’ (DDA) developed by Purcell and Pennyparker is a powerful and quite general method to calculate the scattering from arbitrary particles and has been applied to a variety of problems such as calculations of the scattering from graphite grains and porous dust particles. In the DDA, a continuum target is replaced by an array of point dipoles which interact with each other and a consistent solution is sought. Direct inversion of the matrix is not feasible for most problems due to the huge number of unknowns and iterative solutions become inevitable. Iterative solutions require O(N2) operations per matrix-vector multiplication as compared to O(N3) operations for the direct inversion. Even iterative methods can exhaust the computer resources as the scatterer size increases and it becomes necessary to exploit the special structure of the coefficient matrix in order to decrease the problem complexity. One approach is to use the FFT method which results in O(N log N) complexity for relatively uniform distribution of dipoles. For nonuniform distributions, the complexity is more like O(N2). In this work, the multilevel Fast Multipole Algorithm (MLFMA), is used. The FMA was successfully used for different problems, and the complexity of MLFMA is O(N) for densely packed particles, and O(N log N) for sparse and/or nonuniform distribution of particles, for any prescribed degree of accuracy. This is clearly an improvement over the FFT method. Author Algorithms; Discrete Functions; Dipoles; Approximation; Computation; Scattering; Graphite; Grains

In this paper we present the dispersion relation governing inhomogeneous plane waves and show that the homogeneous dispersion relation is a special case of this more general relation. It is found that, unlike in the physical world, constant amplitude planes are not necessarily orthogonal to constant phase planes for inhomogeneous plane waves in lossless materials. However, the inhomogeneous dispersion relation does converge to the exact one in the limit as the discretization goes to zero. Additionally, we show that, for very coarsely resolved fields, homogeneous waves will experience exponential decay as they propagate and they may propagate faster than the speed of light. Bounds are established for the speed of propagation within the grid, as well as the highest frequency and the shortest wavelength that can be coupled into the grid.

It is shown that the new algorithm is quite stable numerically even when the CFL condition is not satisfied. Therefore, if the cell size in the computational domain is locally much smaller than the wavelength, this new algorithm is more efficient than conventional FDTD schemes in terms of computer resources such as central processing unit (CPU) time.

The most successful methods can be categorized under the two following titles: (a) approximations to the continuous one way wave equation at the boundary e.g. the Engquist-Majda-Mur conditions, and (b) the use of artificial or physical absorbing materials near the boundary, such as the PML. The ABC’s, applied at the boundaries of the computational domain, are initially formulated in the continuous world, and then discretized for use in the FDTD scheme. It is now recognized that typically more than 10 PML layers must be employed for sufficiently accurate results. This extra computational region imposes additional burden on the computational resources, compared with simpler methods that only require a small stencil close to the boundary.

Such an integrator is compatible with either explicit spatial differencing or with compact differencing; in this paper we will consider the former. To limit the discussion, only the fourth-order and eighth-order integrators are presented. The chief attributes of these integrators are that the computational memory requirements are small and the algorithmic complexity is not increased, with respect to the classical FDTD method. To validate many of the theoretical claims made herein, numerous studies on the rectangular waveguide are considered. These studies clearly demonstrate the effect of accuracy on data quality.

247 In modern micro- and millimeter wave technology, there exist many different devices based on microstrip lines. These include coplanar waveguides, patch antennas, filters, power dividers, directional couplers etc. In this work, a simple and computationally advantageous extension to a standard 2D polynomial finite element basis is introduced to cope with wedge singularities in uniform cylindrical structures. To enhance the computation, variable-order elements are used. For the propagation mode analysis, the longitudinal components of the fields behave have as r(sup 1/2) in the most singular case. Unfortunately, polynomials can poorly approximate these fields close to the singularity, especially in the sense of H(sup 1) norm. It will be shown, that the error of the eigenmodes in just H(sup 1)-norm is critical. A modification of the finite element basis is presented to incorporate the singular behavior. Modifications of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method are also presented for the same purpose. The field is assumed to be expanded into asymptotic series. The elements touching the wedge tip are modified to have the correct asymptotic form in the radial coordinate. In this case the angular variation is not asymptotically accurate. Unfortunately, no quantitative results are given to evaluate the impact of the modification. The present extension is constructed such that a few additional basis functions are joined into a high-order hierarchic polynomial basis. The extension has the correct asymptotic form in both radial and angular coordinates. Derived from text Finite Element Method; Singularity (Mathematics); Waveguides; Wedges

Several ABCs were developed for outer boundaries that form canonical shapes. Most practical radiation or scattering problems have geometrical shapes that do not conform to a box, circle or sphere. Hence, when using any of these shapes as outer boundaries for mesh termination, the white space around the scatterer might be unnecessarily large resulting in costly simulation in terms of both memory and run time. To address this problem, ABCs were developed that can be applied to boundaries that conform, as close as practicable, to the radiating geometry. In all of these previous ABC constructions, the outer boundary had to be positioned few wavelengths from the nearest surface of the structure to obtain practical levels of accuracy. In a total departure from‘the philosophy employed earlier, Kreigsman et al. applied the BT operator directly on the surface of the scatterer, while assuming that the origin of waves is at the center of the osculating circle at each outer boundary node. The result of the application of Kreigsman et al. was not very satisfactory because it was only possible to apply only second-order BT operators. The novelty, however, of using local scattering centers in the work of Kreigsman et al. lead others to extend the concept of the local scattering center to outer boundaries that are positioned at a distance from the structure’s surface.

248 The finite element solution of the vector Helmholtz equation is more difficult than that of the scalar one. Absorbing boundary conditions (ABCs) that were developed earlier for the vector wave equation were complex. In factGamma the mmerical implementations of second-order ABCs were the only that were reported in the literature because ABCs of order three or higher were immensely difficult to implement in a finite element numerical code. Second-order operators were found to yield satisfactory solutions only when the outer boundary was positioned one or more wavelengths away from the scattererGamma thus increasing the computational cost substantially.

This is probably because the original wavelets, which were widely used for signal/image processing, were primarily real valued. Among these commonly used wavelets, especially, real-valued Daubechies wavelets are concerned most frequently owing to their finite support and orthogonality properties. Nevertheless, it does not mean that they are the only choice to solve the problem. They are just one genus of wavelets within the Daubechies family. Various genus of wavelets can be constructed, real-valued or complex-valued, by means of adjusting the selection strategy of zeros in the Daubechies polynomial. As is generally recognized, in real-valued wavelet family, symmetric or antisymmetric, compactly supported and orthogonal scaling functions and wavelets are not available except for Haar wavelets. One of the properties mentioned above must be released if the other two properties are required. In the meantime, orthogonality and finite support wavelets are most preferred and lead to asymmetric real-valued wavelets. However, this is not to say symmetric property is not important for solving electromagnetic problems. The purpose here is to explore a little further into the symmetric or antisymmetric wavelets with compact supports and orthogonal behavior. Since there are many wavelets genus can be obtained, either real-valued or complex-valued, we need a reasonable criterion to choose the most suitable basis for the application at hand. In this paper, a new selection criterion based on the time-localization measure of scaling functions and wavelets is proposed to investigate the relationship between the localization of wavelets and the sparsity of the resultant MoM matrix equation.

It has been found that the application of wavelet basis functions in electrodynamic problems can result in a very sparse moment matrix, but the number of above-threshold elements in the transformed matrix still grows nearly as O(N(sup 2)) [3]. As a result, the computational complexity of solving electromagnetic integral equations is not reduced using the conventional wavelet basis. More recently there is research to adaptively choose the best wavelet packet basis for the maximum sparsification of the transformed moment matrix [4,5]. It was reported that the above threshold elements grows at the rate of O(N(sup 1.4)) in the adaptive wavelet packet transformed moment matrix. However, the adaptive packet method requires additional computational cost to fred the best transform basis, and the basis found may deviate from the optimum when the problem size is large. In this work we define a class of pre-designed wavelet packet bases for the efficient representation of moment equations. The new basis is designed from the wavelet packet decomposition tree that grows along the free-space wave number 1%. Simulation results show that the non-zero elements in the transformed matrix grow at a rate of about O(N(sup 1.3) for small problem sizes, and the rate tends to O(NlogN) for large problem sizes.

This imposes constraints both in terms of storage and solution-complexity of the impedance matrix. Most of the methods to relieve these constraints are concerned with rendering the matrix sparse, or otherwise exploit its structure. An approach relevant to this paper is that of using special basis functions such that the resulting impedance matrix will have only small number of dominant terms. Thresholding the matrix will lead to a sparse matrix, with yet almost no degradation in the result. An example is the use of wavelets as basis functions. In the category of selecting special basis functions also falls the Impedance Matrix Localization (IML) method of Canning. In the IML one performs a basis-transformation in order to transform the impedance matrix into one with only a few dominant terms, and then performs a threshold operation to arrive at a sparse matrix. A different point of view was recently suggested in the Impedance Matrix Compression (IMC) method. In the IMC one seeks to use basis functions such that the resulting solution vector is sparse. This, in turn, enables the use of a much smaller (in dimensions) impedance matrix, which is much easier to solve than the original impedance matrix. In this work we will look into the question of which basis functions should be used for the IMC, in order to have the most possible sparse solution vector. We will start by formulating more precisely the problem at hand, and will then proceed to description of possible solutions and numerical examples.

Conventional method of moments (MoM), when applied directly to the integral equations, leads to dense matrix equations which require a computation cost of O(N3) with N unknowns. Recently, a wavelet matrix transform approach has been used to reduce the original equations to sparse ones and hence dramatically reduce the computing time. Z. Xiang and Y. Lu have proposed a construction method for orthonormal or non-orthonormal wavelet matrices and compared the effect of using the cardinal spline wavelet bases with that of using Daubechies’ wavelet bases in the wavelet matrix transform approach, where the advantages of using the former bases have been demonstrated from matrix compression rate and accuracy point of view. However, the computation cost was not discussed there. R. L. Wagner and W. C. Chew have studied not only the sparsification of matrices but also the cost of matrix-vector multiplication (MVM) which was reported as O(N2). W. L. Golik

250 has applied a discrete wavelet packet and saved the cost of the MVM to O(N(sup p)) with p less than 2. However, the real run-time of solving the resulting sparse matrix equations was not concerned with in these papers. In addition, the number of vanishing moments of the vavelet was fixed at 8. This value should be optimized from the computation cost consideration. Derived from text Wavelet Analysis; Matrices (Mathematics); Method of Moments; Multiplication

Particularly, a periodic method for material bodies [1] has been applied in [3] to evaluate the scattering from a concrete block wall, which is modeled as a periodically-distributed material structure for determining the effects of periodicity in wireless communications. On the other hand, ray-tracing techniques have been employed to evaluate the reflections, transmissions and diffractions from electrically-large bodies for indoor/outdoor wave propagation. [4-6] In this paper, a hybrid approach, combining the ray-tracing method shown in [6] and the periodic moment method (PMM) for material objects reported in [2], is developed to study the indoor wave propagation, penetrations, and also the scattering due to periodic structures in buildings. The PMM is applied to evaluate the specular and grating transmission and reflection coefficients of the periodic structures. Those data are then used in the ray-tracing program to find specular and grating ray tubes for each ray tube illuminating one of the periodic structures. Those excited ray tubes are continuously traced to determined their contributions to receiving antennas. Measurements and simulations for waves propagating inside a staircase will be compared and discussed, where the stairs are modeled as singly-periodic wedges having material properties similar to those of the reinforced concrete (RC) wall.

Iterative procedures are O(N(sup 2)) versus O(N(sup 3)) for factorization, where N is the number of unknowns to be found, so iteration can be much more efficient computationally for large systems. Moreover, the matrix interaction elements can be recalculated as needed in an iterative approach, eliminating the need to store the entire interaction matrix (which can exceed the memory capabilities of the computer system for the largest problems). Earlier the use of iterative techniques to find the scattering from perfectly conducting surfaces was examined. It was shown that recently introduced iterative schemes are mathematically equivalent to existing stationary approaches whose convergence properties depend strongly on the conditioning of the interaction matrix, and that non-stationary approaches can be more robust. Here the application of iterative routines to finite-conductivity surfaces is considered. In particular, an integral equation formulation that yields rapid convergence for horizontally polarized scattering from one-dimensionally rough surfaces without loss of accuracy is examined.

In the past we demonstrated the successful application of the finite difference time domain (FDTD) method to numerically obtain reflection and transmission coefficients for pure homogeneous layered wails. We also compared measurements with the FDTD method for a certain type of inhomogeneous wall [2] with satisfactory results. In this paper we further extend the FDTD approach to analyze the transmitted and reflected fields from 2-D inhomogeneous walls which represent practical wall structures, in order to identify the importance of the various paran_ters such as thickness, permittivity, and presence or absence of metallic rebars.

Providing a solution which integrates various data types and analysis techniques with a common client/server interface is key to achieving the level of YE support needed to establish world class semiconductor manufacturing yields. This paper describes our experiences with using the Knights Technology Yield Manager(TM) (Knights YM)as a fabwide data integration and analysis tool. The Knights YM system is designed around a client-server architecture, with separate servers to service database management and data analysis tasks. The system provides: (1) a single interface for extracting multiple types of data generated during device fabrication and testing, and (2) tools to visualize, analyze, and correlate the data. All database and analysis functions can be accessed remotely via any terminal, workstation, or desktop PC which support x-terminal functions. At Motorola, the Knights YM system is being used to facilitate the collection, management, and analysis of fab data. Examples of how the Knights YM system is being used to improve analysis capability, productivity, and response time are presented as case studies.

Given a detected and tracked object, the goal is to analyze the periodic signature of its motion pattern. We propose an efficient and robust solution similar to frequency estimation techniques in speech processing. Periodic reference functions are correlated with the video signal. In order to capture the frequency response at a given set of period, we explore a local version of DFT. By estimating the periodicity at every pixel, we obtain the overall response for the object, which helps us to make decision robustly. Experimental results for both infrared and visible videos acquired by ground-based as well as airborne moving sensors are presented. DTIC Algorithms; Classifications; Frequency Response

20050173204 Florida State Univ., Tallahassee, FL USA Parity Relation Based Fault Detection, Isolation and Reconfiguration for Autonomous Ground Vehicle Localization Sensors Lu, Ying; Collins, Emmanuel G., Jr.; Selekwa, Majura F.; Dec. 2004; 9 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432374; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This paper considers fault detection, isolation and reconfiguration (FDIR) for the localization sensors, including the dead reckoning and external sensors, of an autonomous ground vehicle (AGV) designed for use in highly unstructured outdoor environments. Ten sensors are considered in this research. None of these sensors are identical, but subsets of them do have the ability to measure or calculate (based on simple algebra) the same kinematical parameters. To improve the localization accuracy, selected sensor outputs are fused using Kalman filters. The fused data and selected sensor measurements are then combined into a set of linearly independent parity equations, which leads to the generation of a bank of residuals. A fault in any one of the ten sensors causes a unique subset of these residuals to grow, which allows the fault to be detected and isolated. This allows a control scheme based on these sensors to reconfigure itself so that only the non-faulty sensors are used for localization. The effectiveness of this FDIR scheme is demonstrated in the context of a recently developed algorithm for maneuvering an AGV in cluttered environments.

20050173270 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Salisbury, Australia Approximation of Integrals via Monte Carlo Methods, With an Applications to Calculating Radar Detection Probabilities Weinberg, Graham V.; Kyprianou, ; Mar. 2005; 39 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432535; DSTO-TR-1692; DODA-AR-013-341; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The approximation of definite integrals using Monte Carlo simulations is the focus of the work presented here. The general methodology of estimation by sampling is introduced, and is applied to the approximation of two special functions of mathematics: the Gamma and Beta functions. A significant application, in the context of radar detection theory, is based upon the work of Shnidman 1998. The latter considers problems associated with the optimal choice of binary integration parameters. We apply the techniques of Monte Carlo simulation to estimate binary integration detection probabilities. DTIC Integrals; Monte Carlo Method; Probability Theory; Radar Detection; Radar Equipment

20050173271 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Edinburgh, Australia Simultaneous Localisation and Map Building Using the Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracker Davey, Samuel; Mar. 2005; 47 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432536; DSTO-TR-1691; DODA-AR-013-343; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This report presents an algorithm for efficiently solving the Simultaneous Localisation and Map Building (SLAM) problem. The SLAM problem requires both the dynamic estimation of the sensor location and the tracking of features of interest in the environment using the sensor measurements. The problem is difficult because the unknown sensor and feature locations are coupled through the sensor measurement. It has been shown that under linear Gaussian conditions, a Kalman Filter solution converges to a solution relative to the unknown starting location. However, this approach does not scale well with the number of features in the scene, and is unfeasible for large maps. The algorithm introduced here is based on the Probabilistic Multi-Hypothesis Tracker (PMHT) and exploits a factorisation of the problem to reduce the computational requirements of the Kalman Filter approach. The new algorithm is demonstrated on a benchmark data set recorded in Victoria Park. DTIC Algorithms; Hypotheses; Kalman Filters; Mapping; Position (Location); Radar Maps

The weapons/targets pairing problem can be considered as an assignment optimization problem in mathematics. Hence, there are number of optimal algorithms that can solve it. We show that for practical weapons/targets pairing a well-known in the literature auction algorithm should be considered as a preferred choice. DTIC Algorithms; Optimization; Targets

20050173418 Army Research Office, Research Triangle Park, NC USA Heavy-Tailed, Non-Gaussian Nature of Terrain and its Implications for Terrain Modeling by L1 Splines Lavery, John E.; Fang, Shu-Cherng; Dec. 2004; 7 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432833; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This paper presents the first step in establishing a link between the heavy-tailed nature of terrain and a new terrain modeling technique, L1 splines, that is, splines based on minimizing the L1 norm rather than the square of the L2 norm. To establish this link, we focus on the heavy-tailed nature of the second derivatives that occur in the L1 spline minimization principles. For one urban-terrain data set (Baltimore, Maryland) and two natural-terrain data sets (Killeen, Texas), the second derivatives behave asymptotically rather than like exponential functions. Similar results for first derivatives minus first differences are presented. The distributions investigated here are not directly related to the spatial frequency spectra that have been the topic of most previous investigations of the heavy-tailed nature of terrain. The heavy-tailed nature of the frequency spectra of terrain has not resulted in any major impact on modeling of large terrain datasets (although it has had significant positive impact on modeling of vehicle-terrain interaction, where the data sets are local and smaller). The investigation of the heavy-tailed nature of the derivatives of terrain will have significant impact by providing the theoretical underpinnings for the current observation that L1 splines provide better terrain modeling than alternative techniques.

20050173421 Army High Performance Computing Research Center, Minneapolis, MN USA Scalable Parallel Approximate Formulations of Multidimensional Spatial Auto-Regression Models for Spatial Data Mining Shekhar, Shashi; Kazar, Baris M.; Lilja, David J.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAAD19-01-2-0014 Report No.(s): AD-A432837; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The spatial auto-regression (SAR) model is a popular spatial data analysis technique which has been used in many applications with geo-spatial datasets. However, exact solutions for estimating SAR parameters are computationally expensive due to the need to compute all the eigen-values of a very large matrix. Therefore, serial solutions for the SAR model do not scale up to map sizes of interest to the Army. Thus, we developed the parallel approximate SAR models which can now be used by the Army to increase the accuracy and usefulness of maps, better analyze the impact of weather on the battlefield,

20050173429 Army Aviation and Missile Command, Redstone Arsenal, AL USA Accelerated Concept Exploration of Future Combat Systems Using Evolutionary Algorithms and Enterprise Software Griffin, Joseph; Hester, Jeff; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432852; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Army R&D labs have played a crucial role in the evaluation of emerging systems that equipped the war fighter with superior lethality. The Future Combat System’s (FCS) aggressive acquisition strategy of conventional (armor, munitions, propulsion) and non-conventional (unmanned sensors, robotics) technologies place a greater demand on labs for rapid and accurate analysis of potential weapon systems. A combination of validated engineering analysis codes, Evolutionary Algorithms (EA) and Enterprise Commercial Off the Shelf Software (COTS) can greatly accelerate the evaluation of candidate systems. Traditional Modeling and Simulation (M&S) activities are not well suited for today’s acquisition environment. In particular, they suffer from: premature design commitment, a failure to quickly identify dominant design factors and adapt to changing design requirements. Many of these problems stem from a lack of human engineering concurrency and communication. A partial solution to this problem is to enable virtual collaboration among a lab’s modeling and simulation codes. Genetic Algorithms (GA), a subset of EA’s, are an ideal catalyst for multidisciplinary concept exploration. GA’s mimic the selection process that occurs among biological species in nature, but to various engineering disciplines they provide an excellent focal point in determining a weapon system’s optimal configuration based on a set of given mission parameters. The organizational and cultural impact of setting up this type of virtual cooperation is far reaching and cannot be overstated. Concept exploration engines have been around for a number of years; an outstanding example is the Integrated Hypersonic Aeromechanics Tool (IHAT) used at Naval Air Command, China Lake to design hypersonic air breathing vehicles in the Mach 4-8 regime. Likewise, the Aviation and Missile Command has adopted a multidisciplinary approach through its Army Missile Collaborative Design Environment (AMCODE).

20050173465 RD Instruments, San Diego, CA USA A Bound on Mean-Square Estimation Error Accounting for System Model Mismatch Xu, Wen; Richmond, Christ D.; Bell, Kristine L.; Baggeroer, Arthur B.; Dec. 2004; 16 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432923; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In typical array processing problems the signal observation is a function of the parameter set to be estimated as well as some background system model assumed known. The modeled background could differ from the true one, leading to biased estimates even at high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). To analyze this system model mismatch problem, a Ziv-Zakai-type lower bound on the mean-square error is developed based on the mismatched likelihood ratio test (MLRT). At high SNR, the bound incorporates the increase in mean-square error due to estimation bias; at low SNR, it includes the threshold effect due to estimation ambiguity. The kernel of the bound’s evaluation is the error probability associated with the MLRT. A closed-form expression for this error probability is derived under a data model typical of the array problem assuming random signal embedded in random noise, both of which can be spatially correlated and potentially mismatched. The development is applied to plane-wave bearing estimation with array shape mismatch and matched-field source localization with channel parameter mismatch. Examples demonstrate that the developed bound describes the simulations of the maximum likelihood estimate well, including the sidelobe-introduced threshold behavior and the bias at high SNR.

258 automated CD SEMs to develop systems with improved linewidth measurement repeatability and reproducibility [1]. However, in a multiple tool manufacturing environment, the technical performance of CD SEMs is as much a function of consistent and tight operational controls as it is a function of the fundamental capability of the system. Efficient and strict methods for the characterization and monitoring of the measurement performance of the systems, and in particular system matching, are required to preserve proper operation. We describe a practical CD SEM control procedure, using a standard daily monitor wafer, that tracks the major system components that impact CD SEM performance. A statistical analysis of this monitor data is presented which allows system matching to be verified immediately rather than requiring tests that span several days. This procedure tracks tool stability, provides a common CD SEM length reference, and enables the seamless use of multiple CD SEMs within a single manufacturing environment or between separate manufacturing environments, without significantly increasing the tool qualification time. Critical matching of six automated CD SEMs in two separate manufacturing environments is demonstrated using this technique on a variety of layers.

20050173215 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Developing a Markov Model to be Used as a Force Shaping Tool for the Navy Nurse Corps Kinstler, Daniel P.; Johnson, Raymond W.; Mar. 2005; 133 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432402; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) A Markov Model was used to determine the number of nurses the Navy must gain each year in order to maintain desired end strength. Significant characteristics affecting career progression of individuals in the Navy Nurse Corps were identified. The characteristic of primary concern, accession source, was determined to be significant. Markov models were created to identify personnel flow from ENS through LCDR. The models end-strength projections for 2006-2009 were then compared to Nurse Corps targeted end-strengths for this same period. Several scenarios were run to minimize overages and underages in rank distribution. Optimization was achieved by changing both the distribution of accession sources and the distribution of recruited ranks. Optimal distribution of accession source and rank are dependant upon the degree of acceptable deviation from these targets. As stated above we were not able to acquire this information limiting our ability to accurately forecast optimized distribution of accession source or rank. The Markov Model demonstrated that the Nurse Corps current business practices optimize accessions for two year projections. Increasing variation between the current force structure plan and our models projections suggest that greater efficiency could be obtained in the out-years. This Markov Model provides a tool for improving extended forecasts. DTIC Manpower; Markov Processes; Mathematical Models; Medical Personnel; Navy

20050173220 Army Research Inst. of Environmental Medicine, Natick, MA USA Mathematical Analysis of Extremity Immersion Cooling for Brain Temperature Management Xu, Xiaojiang; Santee, William; Berglund, Larry; Gonzalez, Richard; Jan. 2004; 5 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432410; MISC-04-07; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Due to low heat conductivity of body tissue, head surface cooling methods for management of the brain temperature during medical treatments often have limited utility. As blood flow rates and surface-to-volume ratios are generally high in the extremities, heat exchange between the body and the environment through the extremities is an important path for heat exchange. This study examines the effects of cold-water extremity immersion on brain temperature by simulation modeling. The work is based on a six-cylinder thermoregulatory model that predicts human thermoregulatory responses to heat, cold, and water immersion. An arteriovenous anastomosis (AVA) response algorithm was added to the base model. Arteriovenous anastomoses are assumed to be controlled by a combination of core and skin temperatures. Our series of simulation scenarios consists of resting in a hot environment (40 degrees C, 75% relative humidity) until the brain temperature rises to 39 degrees C, then continuing the rest for 1 h under one of the following treatments: (A) no cooling; (B) hands immersed in 10 degrees C; (C) feet immersed in 10 degrees C water; (D) hands/feet immersed in 10 degrees C water. The simulation results indicate that within the first 30 min, the hands, feet, or hands/feet immersion cooling resulted in brain temperature drops of 1.7 degrees C, 2.4 degrees C, and 3.3 degrees C, respectively, which correspond to cooling rates of 0.03 degrees C/min, 0.04 degrees C/min, and 0.05 degrees C/min. The predicted values show that extremity immersion cooling is a viable mechanism for simple and effective control of brain temperature.

C-ring specimens tested in compression will generate maximum tensile stress states at the outer surface of the barrel. This stress state will activate critical flaws that are oriented parallel to the long axis of the tube. The sectored flexure bar specimen tested in four-point flexure will activate flaws aligned circumferentially around the tube. There is a need to take failure data from these tests and transform the information so that material characteristic strengths can be computed for subsequent Weibull analyses conducted on the gun barrel component. In order to compute the material characteristic strengths, the requisite Weibull effective area and/or effective volume parameters must be obtained. The procedure for numerically computing the Weibull effective area and effective volume for C-ring and sectored flexural test specimens is detailed in this article.

Jobst, Mark; Palmer, Jeffrey; Mar. 2005; 278 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432811; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The purpose of this thesis is threefold. Firstly, to attempt to provide validity for the two-sided matching process; secondly, analyze FITREP attributes to determine their suitability for a weighted criteria evaluation system and; thirdly, compare the USMC promotion and assignment process with contemporary human resource management practices. Using data from the USMC Officer Accession Career file (MCCOAC), a logit model is used to estimate the effects of TBS preference and other officer characteristics on retention to the seven year mark. Findings indicate that there was little difference in the probability of retention throughout most preference levels except for the bottom sixth. Using USMC FITREP data, an ordinary least squares model is used to estimate the effects of rank and MOS on FITREP scores across all attributes. Multiple comparison tests demonstrated that there are statistical differences at the 0.05 level between the means of the MOSs. Additionally, reporting creep is continuing across all attributes. Surveys were also conducted. The first survey indicated that USMC officers believe the FITREP attributes were not all equally important within, and across each MOS - although the USMC assesses them as such. The second survey indicated that the USMC promotion and assignment process can be strengthened through a clearly defined HRM plan that extends beyond ‘faces’ and ‘places’, and provides very clear links to the organizational strategy. Based on the findings it is recommended that the USMC review its HRM processes and conduct further analyses on the FITREP data

20050173507 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Lexington, MA USA The Capon-MVDR Algorithm Threshold Region Performance Prediction and Its Probability of Resolution Richmond, Christ D.; Dec. 2004; 60 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432991; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The Capon-MVDR algorithm exhibits a threshold effect in mean-squared error (MSE) performance 1. Below a specific threshold signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) the MSE of signal parameter estimates derived from the Capon algorithm rises rapidly. Prediction of this threshold SNR point is clearly of practical significance for system design and performance. Via an adaptation of an interval error-based method referred to herein as the method of interval errors (MIE) 2, 3 the Capon threshold region MSE performance is accurately predicted. The exact pairwise error probabilities for the Capon (and Bartlett) algorithm derived herein are given by simple finite sums involving no numerical integration and include finite sample effects for an arbitrary colored data covariance. Combining these probabilities with the large sample MSE predictions of Vaidyanathan and Buckley 4 MIE provides accurate prediction of the threshold SNRs for an arbitrary number of well-separated sources circumventing the need for numerous Monte Carlo simulations. A new two-point measure of the Capon probability of resolution is a serendipitous by-product of this analysis that predicts the SNRs required for closely spaced sources to be mutually resolvable by the Capon algorithm. These results represent very valuable design and analysis tools for any system employing the Capon-MVDR algorithm. Potential to characterize performance in the presence of mismatch is briefly considered.

In this process, incident protons were transmitted, by scattering off the telescope mirrors, to the focal plane. We identify the proton population responsible for the damage and, using a proper grazing angle formalism, we show that the standard calculations of grazing angle scattering will significantly under predict the expected proton flux at the focal plane.

261 This NASA Technical Publication explores and documents the nature of Space Shuttle operations and its supporting infrastructure and addresses fundamental questions often asked of the why does it take so long to turnaround the Space Shuttle for flight and why does it cost so much? Further, the report provides an overview of the cause-and effect relationships between generic flight and ground system design characteristics and resulting operations by using actual cumulative maintenance task times as a relative measure of direct work content. In addition, this NASA TP provides an overview of how the Space Shuttle program’s operational infrastructure extends and accumulates from these design characteristics. Finally, and most important, the report derives a set of generic needs from which designers can revolutionize space travel from the inside out by developing and maturing more operable and supportable systems.

The carrier sense multiple access with collision avoidance is the predominant approach for implementing the MAC mechanism in UANs. However, the underwater acoustic environment is characterized by extreme propagation delays and limited bandwidth, which suggests that an Aloha-like scheme may merit consideration. The performance of these two schemes was compared with respect to two topologies: tree and grid. The results showed that an Aloha-like scheme that does not segment messages outperforms the contention-based scheme under all load conditions, in terms of both throughput and latency, for the two topologies. This thesis is the first to establish that Aloha-like MAC mechanisms can be more than a limited alternative for lightly loaded networks; more specifically, they can be the preferred choice for an environment with large propagation delays.

STAP relies on an accurately estimated covariance matrix which is traditionally computed from localized training around the range gate under test. This presentation suggests a new approach to covariance training. Power variable training combines phase-selective covariance training which restricts range gate training to the most powerful range gates that lie on the clutter ridge and a new technique that scales the covariance matrix power to prevent over-nulling. The new algorithm exhibits improved minimum detectable velocity (MDV) and fewer false alarms from clutter discretes as well as increased performance with extended-range targets. The proposed technique is demonstrated and compared to localized training on Tuxedo data. DTIC Adaptation; Clutter; Education

20050173351 Alphatech, Inc., Burlington, MA USA Root Locus Properties of Adaptive Beamforming and Capon Estimation for Uniform Linear Arrays Steinhardt, Allan; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432695; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In this paper we explore properties of the zeroes of the transfer function (Z transform) of the weight vector arising in adaptive beamforming and direction of arrival estimation (Capon) using sample matrix inversion. Our analysis sheds insights on properties of diagonal loading, as well as high-resolution properties of Capon’s estimate. The analysis also provides hints at how to extend these properties to nonuniform array manifolds. Specifically we prove the following theorem. Root locus theorem for ULAs: Let w be the clairvoyant weight vector of dimension N for a length N uniform linear array (ULA), given by w = R(exp-1)v, where v is the steering vector to the target, and R is the (ensemble) covariance matrix. Then all N-1 zeroes of the Z transform of w lie on the unit circle. (Note, since the sample matrix yields an unbiased estimator, the root locus for the adaptive beamformer has mean root loci on the unit circle as well) . We then discuss three applications of this theorem: (I) Diagonal loading: We show that the roots of the weight vector follow a trajectory (root locus) from the quiescent pattern to the interference angles as the interference-to-noise ratio grows. Diagonal loading can then be viewed as a regularization process that relaxes the root loci along this trajectory. (II) Capon: The spectrum dynamic range is maximized when the zeroes are all on the unit circle; therefore, our result provides an alternative insight into the high-resolution properties of Capon estimation. (III) Non-ULA extensions: We find in our proof that the root locus behavior results from symmetry properties of the MVDR objective function. This suggests guidelines for successful approaches to generalizing Capon estimation and diagonal loading to non-ULA settings. DTIC Adaptation; Beamforming; Linear Arrays; Loci

263 20050173353 Woods Hole Oceanographic Inst., MA USA Adaptive Channel Equalization in the Time-Varying Underwater Acoustic Channel: Performance Characterization and Robust Equalizers Preisig, James; Dec. 2004; 23 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432698; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Channel-estimate-based equalizers are adaptive coherent equalizers for which observations of the received signal are used to estimate channel parameters and these estimates are used to calculate the equalizer filter weights. Traditional channel-estimate- based equalizers calculate filter weights assuming that the estimates of the channel parameters are perfect. This work presents a common framework for evaluating both the performance of channel-estimate- based equalizers when the channel estimates are perfect (i.e. the minimal achievable error of the equalizer) and the degradation in performance of these equalizers due to errors in the channel estimates (i.e. the excess error). For the three type of equalizers considered (DFE Linear MMSE and Passive Time Reversal) the expressions for minimal achievable error take the form of the results from classical estimation theory for estimation error achieved by MMSE and matched filter estimators. These expressions are interpreted to give insights into the characteristics of ‘good’ and ‘bad’ channels. For the case when the channel estimates are MMSE estimates of the channel-impulse response, the excess error is shown to be proportional to the 2-norm of the calculated feedforward filter weight vector of the equalizer. This result is analogous to the ‘white noise gain’ result characterizing the sensitivity of adaptive array processors to mismatch. This result is used to evaluate the relative sensitivity of all three types of equalizers to environmental mismatch. The analytic predictions of equalizer performance are compared with observed performance using data from several field experiments in different underwater acoustic environments. The expressions for minimal achievable error and excess error give insights into potential methods of improving the robustness to channel mismatch of adaptive equalizers such as the DFE. Several of these methods are implemented and evaluated. DTIC Acoustic Properties; Acoustics; Characterization; Equalizers (Circuits); Sound Transmission; Time; Underwater Acoustics; Variations

MAFIA and PBGUNS were used to calculate the emittance, brightness and energy spread of the electron beam for peak currents ranging from 10 A to 1 kA and pulse durations ranging from 0.3 ps to 10 ps. Under optimum conditions, normalized emittance of 10(sup -7) (pi) m-rad, beam brightness of 3 x 10(sup 15) A/(m-rad)(sup 2) and energy spread of 0.15% were obtained. A pulsed high voltage with 1 MV amplitude, and (approx) 1 ns duration was applied to the diode with an interelectrode gap ranging from 2 mm to 0.5 mm. Copper cathodes with three different surface preparations, diamond polished, diamond turned and chemically cleaned, have been tested for their voltage hold-off properties under this high gradient and the Fowler-Nordheim plots were generated. The diamond polished OFC class II copper was shown to consistently produce lower dark current and higher hold-off voltage. Photoemission studies have been made using light from a KrF excimer. The field enhancement factor for photoemission was calculated to be 5, an order of magnitude smaller than the dark current beta for a similar surface. NTIS Accelerators; Brightness; Electron Sources

The RHIC beam synchronous event link hardware is mainly comprised of three VMEbus board designs, the central input modules (V201), and encoder modules (V123), and the distributed trigger modules (V124). Two beam synchronous links, one for each ring, are distributed via fiberoptic and fanned out via twisted wire pair cables. The V123 synchronizes with the RF system clock derived from the beam bucket frequency and a revolution fiducial pulse. The RF system clock is used to create the beam synchronous event link carrier and events are synchronized with the rotation fiducial. A low jitter RF clock is later recovered from this carrier by phase lock loops in the trigger modules. Prioritized hardware and software triggers fill up to 15 beam event code transmission slots per revolution while tracking the ramping RF acceleration frequency and storage frequency. The revolution fiducial event is always the first event transmitted which is used to synchronize the firing of the abort kicker and to locate the first bucket for decoders distributed about the ring.

The only known method that can cool the beams in a time comparable to the muon lifetime is ionization cooling. This method requires directing the particles in the beam at a large angle through a low Z absorber material in a strong focusing magnetic channel and then restoring the longitudinal momentum with an rf cavity. We have developed a new 3-D tracking code ICOOL for examining possible configurations for muon cooling. A cooling system is described in terms of a series of longitudinal regions with associated material and field properties. The tracking takes place in a coordinate system that follows

Significant targetry issues are raised by these demands. Among these are (1) the best target configuration to tolerate a high-rep rate, high-power proton beam ((approx) 10(sup 14) ppp at 15 Hz), (2) the pion spectra of tie produced pions and (3) the best configuration for maximizing the quantity of captured pions.

In order to maximize the accelerating voltage, they propose using linear accelerating structures with cells bounded by thin beryllium metal foils. this produces an on-axis field equivalent to the maximum surface field, whereas with beam-pipes the accelerating field is approximately half that of the peak surface field in the cavity. The muons interact only weakly with the thin foils. A (pi)/2 interleaved cavity structure has been chosen, with alternate cells coupled together externally, and the two groups of cells fed in quadrature. At present they are considering an operating temperature of 77K to gain a factor of at least two in Q-value over room temperature. They will describe the design of the (pi)/2 interleaved cavity structure, design of an alternative (pi)-mode open structure, preliminary experimental results from a low-power test cavity, and plans for high-power testing.

269 Integrated CMOS Active Pixel Sensor (APS) arrays have been fabricated and tested using X-ray and electron sources. The 128 by 128 pixel arrays, designed in a standard 0.25 micron process, use a approximately 10 micron epitaxial silicon layer as a deep detection region. The epitaxial layer has a much greater thickness than the surface features used by standard CMOS APS, leading to stronger signals and potentially better signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). On the other hand, minority carriers confined within the epitaxial region may diffuse to neighboring pixels, blur images and reduce peak signal intensity. But for low-rate, sparse-event images, centroid analysis of this diffusion may be used to increase position resolution. Careful trade-offs involving pixel size and sense-node area verses capacitance must be made to optimize overall performance. The prototype sensor arrays, therefore, include a range of different pixel designs, including different APS circuits and a range of different epitaxial layer contact structures. The fabricated arrays were tested with 1.5 GeV electrons and Fe-55 X-ray sources, yielding a measured noise of 13 electrons RMS and an SNR for single Fe-55 X-rays of greater than 38.

Applying a longitudinal solenoid field on the cathode can generate such a beam, which rotates around its longitudinal axis in a field-free region. This paper suggests how a magnetized beam can be accelerated and transported from a RF photocathode electron gun to the cooling section without significantly increasing its emittance. The evolution of longitudinal slices of the beam under a combination of space charge and magnetization is investigated, using paraxial envelope equations and numerical simulations. We find that we must modify the traditional method of compensating for emittance as used for normal non-magnetized beam with space charge to account for magnetization. The results of computer simulations of successful compensation are presented. Alternately, we show an electron bunch density distribution for which all slices propagate uniformly and which does not require emittance compensation. NTIS Electron Beams; Space Charge

One source of nonlinearities in magnets that is often important and cannot be avoided is the nonlinearity arising at the end of a magnet due to the longitudinal variation of the field at the end of the magnet. Part of this effect is independent of the longitudinal of the end. It is lowest order in the body field of the magnet, and is the result of taking a limit as the length over which the field at the end varies approaches zero. This is referred to as a ‘hard edge’ end field. This effect has been computed previously to lowest order in the transverse variables. This paper describes a method to compute this effect to arbitrary order in the transverse variables, under certain constraints. NTIS Accelerators; Magnets

The vacuum chambers have elliptical cross section, are made of inconel material with a wall thickness of 2 mm and are placed within the gap of the combined-function main magnets of the AGS synchrotron. The generation of eddy currents in the walls of the vacuum chambers, creates various magnetic multipoles, which affect the optics of the AGS machine. In this report these magnetic multipoles are calculated for various time interval starting at the acceleration cycle, where the magnetic field of the main magnet is (approx)0.1 T, and ending before the beam extraction process, where the magnetic field of the main magnet is almost constant at (approx) 1.1 T. The calculations show that the magnetic multipoles generated by the eddy-currents affect the optics of the AGS synchrotron during the acceleration cycle and in particular at low magnetic fields of the main magnet. Their effect is too weak to affect the optics of the AGS machine during beam extraction at the nominal energies. NTIS Eddy Currents; Synchrotrons; Vacuum Chambers; Optics

Such small Tq corresponds to a large energy spread of the proton wave packet after collision, allowing it to access excited electronic levels. This non-adiabatic excitation of electrons leads to a distortion of the shape of the neutron scattering response function with some redistribution of intensity at energies higher than the nuclear recoil energy and a slight shift of the main neutron intensity peak to lower energies.

The eRHIC collider aims to provide collisions of electrons and positrons on ions and protons in the center-of-mass energy range of 30-100 GeV, with a luminosity of 10(sup 32)-10(sup 34) cm(sup -2)s(sup -1) for e-p and 10(sup 30)-10(sup 32) cm(sup -2)s(sup -1) for e-Au collisions. An essential design requirement is to provide longitudinally polarized beams of electrons and protons (and, possibly lighter ions) at the collisions point. An eRHIC ZDR has been prepared which considers various aspects of the accelerator design. An electron accelerator, which delivers about 0.5A polarized electron beam current in the electron energy range of 5 to 10 GeV, would be constructed at BNL, near the existing RHIC complex and would intersect an ion ring in at least one of the available ion ring interaction regions. In order to reach the luminosity goals, some upgrades in the ion rings would also be required. NTIS Electron Accelerators; Electron Beams; Storage Rings (Particle Accelerators)

Specifically, x-ray imaging is poor in an object that contains both low- and high-Z materials. This is because the energetic x-rays required to penetrate high-Z material(s) interact weakly with the low-Z materials and therefore provide poor image contrast. Protons, on the other hand, are less sensitive to Z; thus they penetrate the high-Z material, yet are sufficiently influenced by the low-Z material as to provide useful contrast and information. Each proton ‘measures’ the total electronic density of material that it traverses by its gradual and continuous energy loss as it passes through the object. Measuring the energy loss of a proton beam that has traveled through the target provides information about the line integral of the areal electron density in the material in a single measurement. Repeating this measurement across the target thus provides an electron-density map of the target; reconstructing multiple maps can lead to full 3-D tomographic renderings. The use of proton beams as an imaging probe with micron-scale spatial resolution in spatially extended (mm) targets can be hindered by positional and energy blurring known as straggling. This blurring is caused by the beam’s strong interactions with the electrical charge distribution of the material through which it travels.

Timing signals from the neutron generator were used to gate the detection system so as to record only events consistent with thermal neutrons traveling the distance between the target and the detector.

A huge body of data. has been gathered in heavy-ion collisions that provides very convincing evidence for the formation of a quark. gluon plasma in central collisions. Recently, studies of nuclear modification factors in forward dAu collisions have shown tantalizing signatures that may be understood most naturally in terms of a, universal form of matter controlling the high energy limit of strong interactions, the Color Glass Condensate. Finally, important advances have also been made in spin physics, where first measurements of single-transverse and double-longitudinal spin asymmetries have been presented, marking a qualitatively new era in this field. The wealth of the new experimental data called for a workshop in which theorists took stock and reviewed in depth what has been achieved, in order to give guidance as to what avenues should be taken from here. This was the idea behind the workshop ‘Theory Summer Program on RHIC Physics’. We decided to invite a fairly small number of participants--some world leaders in their field, others only at the beginning of their careers, but all actively involved in RHIC physics. Each one of them stayed over an extended period of time from two to six weeks.

Our cosmic-ray neutron spectrum measurement is in good agreement with the sea-level data reported by Goldhagen and his co-workers. In the energy range 0.1-1.0 MeV, the cosmic-ray and Cf-252 spectra are different and separable. This difference is expected from the applicable models that describe the phenomena, ‘equilibrium slowing down’ (cosmic-rays) and ‘Maxwellian kinetic temperature’ emission (spontaneous fission).

The Subcommittee made a strong recommendation foran R&D program for high-brightness gun development. Spurred by this recommendation, a workshop was organized at Argonne National Laboratory on September 22-26, 2003 under the auspices of the ANL Theory Institute.About thirty experts in electron gun physics came for a week of intense discussion, reviewing the current state of the art and exploring ways to improve the performance of laser-driven rf photocathode guns, in particular whether an order of magnitude improvement of the beam brightness is feasible. Presentations given during the workshop can be found on the Internet at http://www.aps.anl. gov/asd/theory/presentations-online.html. This white paper grew out of the Argonne workshop. Its aim is to provide a summary of the ANL workshop and to propose an R&D program to develop advanced electron sources with an order of magnitude higher brightness than currently feasible. The budget for the R&D program for this purpose, discussed in Section 4, is estimated to be about $10M per year for ten years with an additional onetime start-up cost of $10M. Although expensive, the expenditure is well worthwhile in view of the tremendous benefits the higher brightness gun will bring in future accelerator development, in particular a fourth-generation light source based on x-ray free-electron laser (FEL) technology and a future linear collider,which together will cost about $10B. Facilities capable for general accelerator-based R&D have been and are constructed as a part of larger accelerator complexes for research in various scientific disciplines, generally without provision for their use for research in advancing accelerator science. Sophistication in accelerator devices has become such that it is now necessary to promote accelerator research in its own right to be pursued with strong participation by university groups.

Earlier investigations have exhibited varying degrees of demagnetization of these magnets due to irradiation from electron beams, (sup 60)Co (gamma)-rays, and high-energy neutrons. Radiation-induced demagnetization has been observed in the APS insertion devices and was first measured in December of 2001. Partial demagnetization has also been observed in insertion devices at the European Synchrotron Radiation Facility (ESRF), where Nd-Fe-B permanent magnets are also used. Growing concern for the lifetime of APS insertion devices, as well as the permanent magnets that will be used in next-generation, high-power light sources, like the FEL, resulted from the partial demagnetization observations made at both facilities. This concern in relation to radiation-induced demagnetization spurred a long-term project to measure and analyze the absorbed doses received by the APS insertion devices. The project required a reliable photon high-dose dosimetry technique capable of measuring absorbed doses greater than 10(sup 6) rad, which was not readily available at the APS. Through a collaboration with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), one such technique using radiachromic films was considered, tested, and calibrated at the APS. This consequently led to the implementation of radiachromic film dosimetry for measuring the absorbed doses received by the insertion devices for each of the APS runs.

Understanding the causes and the physics behind these anomalous behaviors is important to improve the performance of superconducting cavities used in particle accelerators. In this paper attention will be focused on low and medium field regions by presenting experimental results of several cavity test series and reviewing the models that try to explain these non-linearities of the surface resistance.

Subgroup Summary Report Bisognano, J.; Gianfelice, E.; Palumbo, L.; 2004; 8 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-829645; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge The impact of collective phenomena on the performance and operational flexibility of the recirculating linacs was evaluted for preliminary design concepts. At this state of conceptual design where the lattice, operational scenarios, and hardware are not firmly specified, estimates of these current dependent effects can only be approximate. However, scaling arguments applied to well-known machiens such as the SLAC linac and to heavily modeled designs such as the CEBAF linac allowed a number of solid conclusions to be drawn. In particular, there have been extensive measurements and numerical calculations of the transverse and longitudinal wakefields (impendances) of the 5-cell CEBAF/Cornell 1500 MHZ cavity which can be simply scaled (the relevant R/Q per cell being independent of frequency) to provide good estimates of the wakefields of a 500 MHz cavity. Simulations of both single and multiple bunch beam breakup had been performed for the CEBAF configuration for current regimes which then could be scaled to that proposed for the quark factory/nuclear physics facility which was the subject of this workshop. These results together with analytic estimates carried out at the workshop provide the basis for the group’s conclusions. Clearly, more thorough modeling including wakefield calculations of the actual cavity proposed and lattice configuration chosen (which was not possible or appropriate at a week-long workshop) should be pursued. The conclusions of the working group are summarized. NTIS Linear Accelerators; Nuclear Physics

This technique is particularly important for QCD, the theory of strong interactions, due to the vast diversity of phenomena that it describes. Stewart and collaborators have invented a new class of effective theories that can be used in processes with energetic hadrons. These Soft-Collinear Effective Theories provide a unified framework for describing

277 hadronic processes which involve hard probes or the release of a large amount of energy. Many interesting issues about hadronic physics can be addressed with the soft-collinear effective theory. Examples include the size and shape of hadronic form factors, the universality of hadronic distribution functions for a plethora of processes, and the importance of subleading corrections at intermediate energy scales. Effective field theories allow these issues to be addressed using only the underlying symmetries and scales in QCD. Understanding these issues also has a direct impact on other areas of physics, such as on devising clean methods for the measurement of CP violation in the decay of B-mesons. Current progress on the soft-collinear effective theory and related methods is discussed in this report. NTIS Hadrons; Quantum Chromodynamics

In 1993 the 4th LH Gray Workshop entitled ‘Microbeam Probes of Cellular Radiation Response’ was held at the Gray Cancer Institute in Northwood. This was organized by Prof BD Michael, Dr M. Folkard and Dr KM Prise and brought together 40 participants interested in developing and applying new microbeam technology to problems in radiation biology (1). The workshop was an undoubted success and has spawned a series of subsequent workshops every two years. In the past, these workshops have been highly successful in bringing together groups interested in developing and applying micro-irradiation techniques to the study of cell and tissue damage by ionizing radiations. Following the first microbeam workshop, there has been a rapid growth in the number of centres developing radiobiology microbeams, or planning to do so and there are currently 15-20 worldwide. Much of the recent research using microbeams has used them to study low-dose effects and ‘non-targeted’ responses such bystander effects, genomic instability and adaptive responses. The goal of the 6th workshop was to build on our knowledge of the development of microbeam approaches and the application to radiation biology in the future with the meeting stretching over a 3 day period. Over 80 participants reviewed the current state of radiobiology microbeam research worldwide and reported on new technological developments both in the fields of physics and biology.

Specifically, we study the Bjorken x (or Nachtmann xi) dependence of the virtual photon spin asymmetry in deep inelastic scattering of longitudinally polarized electrons from longitudinally polarized protons and neutrons. We use a relativistic potential model of the hadron, treating the constituents as independent massless Dirac particles confined to an infinitely massive force center. The importance of the p-wave components of the Dirac wave function is demonstrated. Comparisons are made to the observed data on protons and neutrons by taking into account the observed flavor dependence of the valence quark distributions.

278 This ongoing study focuses on the effects of the microstructure and impurities on the mechanical behavior of both seasonal lake and river ice. Ice was collected yearly over a 4-year period (2001-2004) from the same locations, from Lower Baker Pond, Orford, NH and the Connecticut River near Hanover, NH. Mechanical testing coupled with microstructural analysis of the texture of lake and river ice revealed that fracture models and strengths inferred from test performed on S2 lab ice can be used to provide strength estimates for river ice but their use for lake ice is problematic.

For example, ill-conditioning of the sample covariance matrix for adaptive arrays and ill-conditioning of the covariance matrix in a Kalman filter are both serious problems that can be mitigated by the same set of about a dozen methods, including Tychonoff regularization (called ‘diagonal loading’ in adaptive arrays), factorization of the covariance matrix, using principal coordinates or approximately principal coordinates, etc. The basic mathematics of Kalman filters and adaptive arrays includes linear algebra and probability Theory, but more specifically, Kalman filters and adaptive arrays use essentially the same matrix inversion formula. Multiple hypothesis tracking is the method of choice nowadays in tracking, and it could be applied to adaptive arrays and STAP for different types of jamming, clutter, and targets. In particular, there is no reason these days to settle for only one adaptive antenna pattern, but rather we could have a bank of ten or more such adaptive antenna patterns for the same batch of data combined adaptively using standard Bayesian methods. Sample covariance matrix estimation in adaptive arrays could benefit from robust multiple hypothesis algorithms developed for tracking. Adaptive array design and STAP can be viewed as nonlinear estimation problems, which suggest that adaptive arrays could profit by using the powerful and elegant exponential family of probability densities, which includes the multivariate Gaussian density as a special case. In particular, exact nonlinear filters, which generalize the Kalman filter, have been developed using the exponential family over the last two decades Markov random fields, which are relevant to adaptive arrays, also correspond to the exponential family, according to the Hammersley-Clifford Theorem.

20050173309 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Influence of Antarctic Oscillation on Intraseasonal Variability of Large-Scale Circulations Over the Western North Pacific Burton, Kenneth R., Jr; Mar. 2005; 113 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432612; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) This study examines Southern Hemisphere mid-latitude wave variations connected to the Antarctic Oscillation (AAO) to establish connections with the 15- to 25-day wave activity in the western North Pacific monsoon trough region. The AAO index defined from the leading empirical orthogonal functions of 700 hPa height anomalies led to seven distinct circulation patterns that vary in conjunction with the 15- to 25-day monsoon trough mode. For nearly one half of the significant events the onset of 15- to 25-day monsoon trough convective activity coincided with a peak negative AAO index and the peak in monsoon trough convection coincided with a peak positive index. The remaining events either occur when the AAO is not significantly varying or when the AAO-related Southern Hemisphere mid-latitude circulations do not match 15- to 25-day transitions. When a significant connection occurs between the Southern Hemisphere mid-latitude circulations related to the AAO and the 15- to 25-day wave activity in the western North Pacific monsoon trough, the mechanism is via equatorward -wave dispersion. When wave energy flux in the Southern Hemisphere is directed zonally, no connection is established between the AAO and the alternating periods of enhanced and reduced convection in the western North Pacific monsoon trough.

280 A 1/8 degree global version of the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM), operational at the Naval Oceanographic OffIce (NAVOCEANO), is used for prediction of sea surface height (SSH) on daily and monthly time scales during 1998-2001. Model simulations that use 3-hourly wind and thermal forcing obtained from the Navy Operational Global Atmospheric Prediction System are performed with/without data assimilation to examine indirect/direct effects of atmospheric forcing in predicting SSH. Model-data evaluations are performed using the extensive database of daily averaged SSH values from tide gauges in the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans obtained from the Joint Archive for Sea Level (JASL) center during 1998-2001. Model-data comparisons are based on observations from 282 tide gauge locations. an inverse barometer correction was applied to SSH time series from tide gauges for model-data comparisons, and a sensitivity is undertaken to assess the impact of the inverse barometer correction on the SSH validation. A set of statistical metrics that includes conditional bias, root-mean-square difference, correlation coefficient, and nondimensional skill score is used to evaluate the model performance. It is shown that global NCOM has skill in representing SSH even in a free-running simulation, with general improvements when SSH from satellite altimetry and sea surface temperature from satellite IR are assimilated via synthetic temperature and salinity profiles derived from climatological correlations.

20050173392 Army Communications-Electronics Command, Fort Monmouth, NJ USA Antenna Optimization Study on Stryker Vehicle Using FDTD Technique Hoppe, Jeff; Duvak, Daniel; Palafox, George; Dec. 2004; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432788; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The purpose of this antenna optimization study is to perform antenna placement optimization for the Blue Force Tracking (BFT), Iridium, and International Maritime Satellite (INMARSAT) antennas on the proposed Mounted Battle Command On The Move (MBCOTM) Stryker system. The MBCOTM Stryker system uses the Stryker Command Vehicle (CV) as its baseline. Engineering analysis of the Stryker CV points out a number of challenges with the antenna integration. First and foremost, the BFT, INMARSAT, and Iridium share the same operational frequency bands. This presents a large potential for co-site interference on the Stryker platform. A second challenge is the degradation of antenna performance when located in close proximity to large metallic obstructions such as the weapon, hatch covers, ammo boxes and other antennas. Without proper antenna placement, these obstructions can have a significant impact on the antenna gain (Fig1,2). To optimize these communication systems on the MBCOTM Stryker system, this study will evaluate the current (baseline) antenna placements for both co-site interference and antenna gain. This study will also develop and evaluate an alternate configuration with the objective of increased antenna gain pattern performance and decreased co-site interference. This study uses Computational Electromagnetic Modeling (CEM), specifically the Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) method, to model and simulate effects of antenna placement on the Stryker. The traditional design method for antenna placement was based solely on engineering experience and empirical test data. CEM provides many additional measurable statistics to evaluate antenna placements. This study integrates CEM analysis and statistics into the traditional design method to optimize antenna performance.

20050173482 National Defense Univ., Washington, DC USA Center of Gravity Schizophrenia Over Kosovo: An ‘Eccentric’ War in Need of a True Clausewitzian Analysis Lecroy, Jessica; Jan. 2000; 20 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432957; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In mid-September the Washington Post carried a three-installment review on the conduct of the Kosovo conflict entitled ‘The Commanders’ War.’ 1 It alleged a telling division over military strategy between Lt. General Michael Short, USAF, operational air commander of the Allied air campaign, and General Wesley Clark, USA, NATO’s chief military commander (SACEUR). The reported Short-Clark disagreement usefully exposed the dilemma of defining the enemy s ‘center of gravity.’ For Short, a veteran airman, the center of gravity rested in Belgrade with Milosevic and strategic targets. For Clark, a former ground commander, the center of gravity resided with the fielded Serbian forces in Kosovo and operational targets. Dozens of articles have since appeared in military journals to reinforce this simplistic interpretation of the disagreement between the two generals. The analysis below attempts to show such a dichotomy is, at best, facile; at worst, it shows a lack of understanding of the framework for military strategy. What the generals’ reported disagreement actually unveiled was the kind of complex political constraints that can be, and generally are, imposed upon military strategists. The imperative of maintaining cohesion among the 19-nation alliance, fears of civilian and allied casualties, etc., skewed a purely rational and comprehensive (read: clean-cut) approach to the conflict. It is this political skewing that explains the apparent center of gravity schizophrenia highlighted in ‘The Commanders’ War,’ just as it also explains why the allies prosecuted a limited, incremental air-only campaign.

20050173499 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA The North Atlantic Oscillation Influence on the Wave Regime in Portugal: An Extreme Wave Event Analysis Semedo, Alvaro A.; Mar. 2005; 106 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432981; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Waves in the North Atlantic are strongly seasonal, and peak in the winter season. The west coast of Portugal is exposed to winter swell, generated by wind associated with North Atlantic extratropical cyclones. The track of these storms, generated near the North America east coast, is strongly influenced by the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO). When the NAO is in its positive phase they normally track northeast and reach Western Europe well north of the Iberian Peninsula, in the British Islands or Scandinavia. However, in the negative NAO situation, the track of the storms is more zonal and south than usual, due to a weakened NAO. The characteristics of wave regime in Portugal are shown to be strongly related to the NAO phase and corresponding storm tracking. Positive NAO storms, tracking northeast towards the north of Europe, drive longer period swell from the northwest, whereas negative NAO storms have associated shorter period swell arriving to Portugal from a more westerly direction. The relation between the NAO phase and the storm tracks and the characteristics of the wave regime is investigated with ten year observations from four directional waverider coastal buoys, located off the coast of Portugal.

However, flow inside the open jet test section is less than optimum. A Construction of Facilities project, scheduled for FY 05, will replace the flow collector with a new design intended to reduce recirculation in the open jet test section. The reduction of recirculation will reduce background noise levels measured by a microphone array impinged by the recirculation flow and will improve flow characteristics in the open jet tunnel flow. In order to assess the degree to which this modification is successful, background noise levels and tunnel flow are documented, in order to establish a baseline, in this report.

20050172099 Pratt and Whitney Aircraft, USA Mixing Process in Ejector Nozzles Studied at Lewis’ Aero-Acoustic Propulsion Laboratory Research and Technology 1995; March 1996; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy The NASA Lewis Research Center has been studying mixing processes in ejector nozzles for its High Speed Research (HSR) Program. This work is directed at finding ways to minimize the noise of a future supersonic airliner. Much of the noise such an airplane would generate would come from the nozzle, where a hot, high-speed jet exits the engine. Several different nozzle configurations were used to produce nozzle systems with different acoustical and aerodynamic characteristics. The acoustical properties were measured by an array of microphones in an anechoic chamber, and the aerodynamics were measured by traditional pressure and temperature instruments as well as by Laser Doppler Velocimetry (LDV), a technique for visualizing the airflow pattern without disturbing it. These measurements were put together and compared for different configurations to examine the relationships between mixing and noise generation. The mixer-ejector nozzle with the installed flow-visualization windows (foreground), the optical equipment and the supporting structure for the Laser Doppler Velocimetry flow visualization (midfield), and the sound-absorbing wedges used to create an anechoic environment for acoustic testing (background) is shown. The High Speed Research Program is a NASA-funded effort, in cooperation with the U.S. aerospace industry, to develop enabling technologies for a future supersonic airliner. One of the technological barriers being addressed is noise generated during near-airport operation. The mixer-ejector nozzle concept is being examined as a way to reduce jet noise while maintaining thrust. Ambient air is mixed with the high-velocity engine exhaust to reduce the jet velocity and hence the noise generated by the jet. The model was designed and built by Pratt & Whitney under NASA contract.

Line-transect surveys of cetaceans were conducted across the shelf and slope, out to 180 km offshore from Newport, Oregon (44.6 degrees N) to Crescent City, California (41.9 degrees N), in conjunction with multidisciplinary mesoscale and fine-scale surveys of ocean and ecosystem structure. Occurrence patterns (presence/absence) of cetaceans were compared with hydrographic and ecological variables (e.g., sea surface salinity, sea surface temperature, thermocline depth, halocline depth, chlorophyll maximum, distance to the center of the equatorward jet, distance to the shoreward edge of the upwelling front, and acoustic backscatter at 38, 120, 200 and 420 kHz) derived from a towed, undulating array and a bioacoustic system. Using a multiple logistic regression model, 60.2% and 94.4% of the variation in occurrence patterns of humpback whales Megaptera novaeangllae during late spring and summer, respectively, were explained. Sea surface temperature, depth, and distance to the alongshore upwelling front were the most important environmental variables during June, when humpbacks occurred over the slope (200-2000 m). During August, when humpbacks concentrated over a submarine bank (Heceta Bank) and off Cape Blanco, sea surface salinity was the most important variable, followed by latitude and depth. Humpbacks did not occur in the lowest salinity water of the Columbia River plume. For harbor porpoise Phocoena phocoena, the model explained 79.2% and 70.1% of the variation in their occurrence patterns during June and August, respectively.

20050173187 Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey, CA USA Effectiveness of a Mine-Avoidance Sensor in Minefield Transit Toh, Eng Y.; Mar. 2005; 103 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432329; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Simulation is used to study the effectiveness of mine avoidance sonar (MAS) use on safe minefield transit by a ship. A MAS is able to detect mine-like objects but currently cannot classify the detected object as a mine or a non-mine mine-like bottom object (nombo). The tactic is to avoid all detected objects. The minefield is represented by a finite grid of fixed width and length. The representation of ship maneuvering in the simulation is similar to that of a wall tracing algorithm for a computer mouse going through a maze. The simulation results indicate that the use of the mine avoidance sonars can increase the probability of successful transit. The probability of successful transit increases as the probability of detection increases for minefield object densities less than 50% of the field. However, the probability of successful transit is sensitive to the mine and NOMBO (NOn-mine Mine-like Bottom Object) density. The probability of successful transit can be increased if the density of mine-like objects is decreased. Some suggestions on mine avoidance tactics are made from the results obtained to show the limitations and effectiveness of the MAS with regards to the open waters, narrow channels, ports and harbors.

The LOAPEX cruise was coordinated with two other experiments, BASSEX led by Art Baggeroer of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and SPICEX led by Peter Worcester

284 of the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. In addition to suspending an acoustic source from the R/V Melville at several locations in the eastern Pacific, LOAPEX utilized the North Pacific Acoustic Laboratory (NPAL) assets that were installed by APL-UW during the Acoustic Thermometry of Ocean Climate (ATOC) demonstration. LOAPEX has three primary scientific objectives: 1. to study the evolution, with distance (range), of the acoustic arrival pattern and in particular the range and frequency dependence of the spatial and temporal coherence 2. to determine the effects of the ocean bottom near the NPAL acoustic source located near Kauai, HI 3. to produce a thermal map of the Northeast Pacific Ocean DTIC Acoustic Propagation; Oceanographic Parameters; Oceans; Underwater Acoustics

20050173303 Metron, Inc., McLean, VA USA Detection and Tracking as a Seamless Process Stone, Lawrence; Mar. 2004; 25 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432583; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Detection and tracking are normally considered separate processes. First the signal processing system associated with a sensor examines the signal to determine whether to call detection. Once detection is called, it is converted to an estimate of one or more of the components of the target’s kinematic state, e.g., bearing, position, or velocity. This estimate (contact) is sent to a tracking system that determines whether the contact should be associated with an existing track or used to generate a new one. This process works well in high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) situations but sacrifices performance in low ones. The tracking community is making progress toward seamless detection and tracking and recovering some of this lost performance. In this talk, we present a method called likelihood ratio detection and tracking (LRDT) that is a step toward providing an integrated approach to detection and tracking. We provide examples of the application of LRDT to sonar and radar detection and tracking LRDT is a recursive Bayesian version of track-before-detect. In LRDT one specifies a surveillance region that has a prior probability less than one of containing a target. There is a probabilistic motion model that specifies target motion within the region as well as the possibility of transiting into and out of the region. As sensor information is received, it is converted into a measurement likelihood ratio function and combined with the prior likelihood ratio surface to produce a posterior surface. Peaks in this surface are used to determine whether a target is present and to provide an estimate of its state (track). The process is recursive with the posterior surface from one time period being updated for target motion to become the prior for the next measurement likelihood ratio function.

The natural bandwidth limitations of the underwater acoustic channel (UAC) combined with the potential for a rich spatial propagation structure suggest the ocean may be another useful application area for MIMO techniques. An

285 underwater acoustic communications experiment was conducted in the waters surrounding Elba, Italy, using spatially modulated signals. Two frequency regimes (9.5-14.5 kHz and 25-35 kHz) were explored over ranges up to 5 km using vertical line arrays suspended from drifting ships. The UAC had an average depth of 100 m. One-way communication links were established at two sites with one site having a rocky (reverberant) bottom and the other having a muddy (absorbent) bottom. The waveform comprised a single data stream with concatenated codes providing error control. The inner code was a high rate BCH code Trellis-coded modulation was used as the basis for the outer code. Successive coded symbols were multiplexed across the available transducer elements. This coding approach effectively maintains the inherent bandwidth efficiency of MIMO signaling. The receiver was an adaptive recursively updated multichannel decision feedback equalizer operating in conjunction with a digital phase-locked loop A packet-based, transport architecture was used and included a training sequence. A Viterbi algorithm was integrated with the equalizer that supported simultaneous tap-weight update and trellis transversal, thereby affording the decision-directed update partial error control. Using appropriate assumptions, channel capacity using a single transducer was estimated to be 5.4 bits/channel use at the soft bottom site. Capacity was maximized at 15.9 bits/channel use using four transducers. More detailed results will be presented along with performance predictions based on both propagation models and measured channel transfer functions7 DTIC Acoustics; Channels (Data Transmission); Modulation; Sound Transmission; Underwater Acoustics; Underwater Communication

20050173378 Scripps Institution of Oceanography, La Jolla, CA USA Adaptive Reverberation Nulling Using a Time Reversal Mirror Song, Hee-Chun; Hodgkiss, William S.; Kuperman, William A.; Kim, S.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432746; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) The major problem for active sonar systems operating in shallow water is the detection of target in the presence of severe bottom reverberation. The focusing capability of a time reversal mirror (TRM) suggest two different approaches to this problem. First, a TRM focuses acoustic energy on a target enhancing the target echo while shadowing the boundaries below and above the focus in an acoustic waveguide, thereby reducing reverberation. The resulting echo-to-reverberation enhancement has been demonstrated experimentally in the 3-4 kHz band in shallow water. The second approach is reverberation nulling to enhance target detectability since focusing and nulling are complementary. The idea is to minimize the acoustic energy incident on the corresponding scattering interface by applying an excitation weight vector which is orthogonal to the time-gated reverberation focusing vector. Both numerical simulations and experimental results illustrate the potential of reverberation nulling using a time reversal mirror. DTIC Adaptation; Mirrors; Reverberation; Sonar

The Army Research Laboratory (ARL) is developing technology to equip our soldiers for the urban

286 operations of the future. Sophisticated small robotic platforms with diverse sensor suites will be an integral part of the Future Force, and must be able to collaborate not only amongst themselves but also with their manned partners. ARL has developed a Reconnaissance, Surveillance, and Target Acquisition (RSTA) sensor payload for integration onto small robotic vehicles (Packbots), larger robotic scout vehicles (M-Gators), manned soldier transports (ATVs), and on a tethered aerial platform (aerostat). The RSTA sensor payload is equipped with an acoustic array that will detect and localize on an impulsive noise event, such as a sniper’s weapon firing. Additionally, the robot sensor head is equipped with visible and thermal camera for operations both day and night. The Packbot can be deployed from the soldier’s ATV to enhance their situational awareness in the urban environment, while keeping them out of harms way. The information from one Packbot can then be fused with other sensors as part of a sensor network. Sensor equipped mobile platforms provide an awesome capability to the future dismounted infantry soldier during warfighting and peacekeeping operations in complex and urban terrain by enhancing their situational awareness and improving their survivability.

A close look shows that large number of electrons, ions, and neutral particles are created when the gold beam scrapes wall. To investigate the neutral particle production due to the beam loss, local vacuum measurement was made during the 1998 run. It shows that the pressure created by the Booster Au(sup 31+) beam loss at injection has a 35 ms decay time constant. The beam loss created pressure bump in the ring is about 20 meters long. When 3 x 10(sup 9) Gold ions scrapes wall, a pressure higher than 10(sup -7) Torr was created. The beam lifetime calculated using these parameters is in agreement with the observed one.

Vibrational spectroscopic methods such as Raman and surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) provide rapid detailed fingerprint information about the molecular composition of biomaterial in a non-destructive manner. The technology and methodology to acquire and interpret biological Raman spectra has seen tremendous advances over the past several decades. The problem of tissue fluorescence, which overwhelms the Raman signal of most biological samples upon excitation in the visible region, has been largely overcome by instrumentation operating in the near-IR region of the spectrum. In addition, treatment of biomaterials with silver nanoparticles not only enhances the normal Raman signal by several orders of magnitude but also further reduces the fluorescence backgrounds via interaction between the analyte and the metal SERS substrate. This work presents a study into the applicability of qualitative Raman spectroscopy with principal component analysis (PCA) and surface enhanced Raman for quantitative analysis of the biological threat materials associated with the Rapid Agent Aerosol Detection (RAAD) project.

20050173310 Science Applications International Corp., Fairfax , VA USA Subarray Beam-Space Adaptive Beamforming for a Dynamic Long Towed-Array Lee, Yung P.; Freese, Herbert; Lee, William W.; Dec. 2004; 28 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432613; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In the fast time-varying shallow water environment the phone-space adaptive processing using sample-matrix-inversion (SMI) approach outperforms the iterative least-mean-squared (LMS) approach due to its rapid convergence. The SMI approach uses singular-value-decomposition (SVD) to decompose a sample-matrix into a set of spatial eigenvectors and their associated eigenvalues Adaptive beamforming is applied by matching the steering vectors with the spatial eigenvectors weighted by their eigenvalues. When a long towed-array undergoes significant maneuvering the array shape and/for the target-to-array relative geometry changes rapidly within a processing interval. A signal in the phone-space sample-matrix is split into more than one eigenvector resulting in signal mismatch in the subsequent beamforming. Its power is split into many eigenvalues resulting in signal loss in the processing. In subarray beam-space adaptive beamforming (SABS ABF) a beam-space sample-matrix is formed at each search cell by focusing subarrays to a cell using the dynamically updated array shape at each time step. The SMI adaptive beamforming then is done by decomposing the beam-space sample-matrix and matching the beam-eigenvectors with a unity steering vector. The beam-space sample-matrix has a lower rank than the

288 phone-space sample-matrix so that a stable estimation can be reached with fewer time samples. The dynamic array shape compensation in SABS ABF makes a signal in the beam-space sample- matrix less likely to be split by the SVD. The subsequent processing after the SVD experiences less signal mismatch and signal loss. A dynamic cable model is used to simulate a long towed-array going through turns in a measured shallow water current field. Simulations show that significant signal loss in phone-space SMI processing is recovered in SABS ABF processing. DTIC Beamforming; Shallow Water; Targets

20050173332 Air Force Research Lab., Hanscom AFB, MA USA Ultra-Wideband Signals for Target Detection in Foliage Ding, Kung-Hau; Schindler, John K.; Kim, Kristopher T.; Perlovsky, Leonid I.; Poirier, J. L.; Tichovolsky, Elihu J.; Weijers, Bertus; Jan. 2004; 65 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Contract(s)/Grant(s): Proj-2304 Report No.(s): AD-A432646; AFRL-SN-HS-TR-2005-003; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) In this report we have demonstrated the properties of precursor-like waveforms that are important if these waveforms are to be considered for radar detection of targets embedded in foliage. These properties are: (1) Precursor-like waveforms are greatly attenuated in comparison with the excitation signal due to the fact that the precursor formation medium must be highly dispersive and has a rapidly increasing attenuation with frequency. The precursor-like waveforms are formed from sideband energy of the excitation signal in a medium that has greatly attenuated the carrier frequency and upper sideband energy. (2) Precursor-like behavior is exhibited only after propagating through several skin depths of the medium at the carrier frequency of excitation. This insures that the carrier and upper sidebands of the excitation are greatly attenuated. (3) Precursor-like behavior of the response waveform persists with target scattering when the target is embedded in a dispersive. Debye medium. Target scattering attenuates low frequency portions of the spectrum due to Rayleigh scattering from the target at very low frequencies. As long as there remains a substantial portion of the response spectrum that is equalized over a band between the Rayleigh scattering and the carrier frequency, the precursor-like behavior of the time response will be observed. In this case, the duration of the precursors will be increased due to the low frequency bandwidth limitations imposed on the spectrum by the target Rayleigh scattering. (4) Foliage is weakly dispersive when compared to water and results in weak or negligible precursor formation in the coherent or ensemble average waveform at reasonable foliage depths. According to the experimental observations of trees and their wood fibers, as modeled by Brown and Curry, wood conductivity due to the ionic conductivity of salts and minerals in the tree sap dominates Debye losses.

20050173352 Texas Univ., Austin, TX USA Spherical Linear Interpolation for Transmit Beamforming in MIMO-OFDM systems with Limited Feedback Choi, Jihoon; Heath Jr, Robert W.; Dec. 2004; 36 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432697; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) Transmit beamforming with receive combining is a simple approach to exploiting the significant diversity provided by multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems and this technique can be easily extended to frequency selective MIMO channels by employing orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM). Optimal beamforming requires channel state information in the form of the beamforming vectors corresponding to all the OFDM subcarriers. When the uplink and downlink channels are not reciprocal this information must be conveyed back to the transmitter. To reduce the amount of feedback information a new approach to transmit beamforming is proposed that combines limited feedback and beamformer interpolation. Because the length of the OFDM cyclic prefix is designed to be much less than the number of subcarriers to increase spectral efficiency the neighboring subchannels of a MIMO-OFDM system are substantially correlated. Thus the beamforming vectors determined by the subchannels are also significantly correlated. To reduce the feedback information using the correlation between beamforming vectors the receiver of the proposed scheme sends back only a fraction of information about the optimal beamforming vectors to the transmitter. Then the transmitter evaluates the beamforming vectors for all subcarriers through interpolation of the conveyed beamforming vectors. Since a beamforming vector is phase invariant and has unit norm a new spherical linear interpolator is proposed that exploits additional parameters for phase rotation. These parameters are determined at the receiver in the sense of maximizing the minimum channel gain or capacity and they are sent

289 back to the transmitter along with the beamforming vectors through the feedback channel. DTIC Beamforming; Feedback; Frequency Division Multiplexing; Interpolation; MIMO (Control Systems)

These measurements are preliminary, as only six different explosives formulations were tested. However, results show that HBI can provide valuable information regarding the manner in which enhanced blast explosives differ from each other, and function in general. In particular, the high brightness imaging technique described here shows that some formulations produce particles ahead of the fireball, while others do not. Also, the distance between the leading shock and the fireball varies by formulation. Finally, for those formulations that produce particles in the space between the leading shock and the fireball, it appears that at later times the fireball expansion velocity (measured at the leading edge of the fireball) decelerates less than other formulations. For the six formulations tested thus far using HBI, we report leading shock velocities, leading shock thickness, particle images (or lack thereof), and fireball leading edge velocities.

As the study progresses baseline conditions of operation are being established such as the required operational time of the device to initiate a combustion shock train. The two plasma torches currently under investigation consist of a DC constricted-arc design from the Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University and an AC unconstricted-arc design based on a modified spark-plug from Polytechnic University. The plasma torches are realistic in size and operate within current power constraints while differing substantially in orifice geometry. In order to compare the potential of each concept the flow physics of each part of the igniter/fuel-injector/combustor system are being studied. In each step of the program, we utilize CFD and experiments to help define and advance the ignition process. To understand the constraints involved with ignition process of a hydrocarbon fuel jet an experimental effort to study gaseous and liquid hydrocarbons is underway, involving the testing of ethylene and JP-7 fuels with nitrogen and air plasmas. Results from the individual igniter studies have shown the plasma igniters to produce hot pockets of highly excited gas with peak temperatures up to (and in some cases above) 5000 K at only 2-kW total input power. In addition ethylene and JP-7 flames with a significant level of OH as determined by OH PLIF were also produced in a Mach-2 supersonic flow with a total temperature and pressure of 590 K and 5.4 atm respectively.

A.; Dec. 2004; 3 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432717; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) A series of experiments and reanalysis of previously published results has led to the discovery of the key interaction between the plasma of an electrothermal igniter and the gun propellant in large caliber cannon. It has been shown that the intense visible and near infrared light from the plasma discharge create a greatly enhanced surface area for a limited fraction of the propelling charge. This extra surface area, promptly ignited by the plasma, causes the rapid pressurization of the gun breech. The remainder of the charge is unaffected by the plasma radiation and burns according to usual interior ballistics design. this provides a mechanism for compensation for the lower burning rates of cold propellants, which would otherwise result in decreased performance.

A.; Taylor, C.; 2004; 6 pp.; In English Report No.(s): DE2004-834232; No Copyright; Avail: Department of Energy Information Bridge During the last year, the VENUS ECR ion source was commissioned at 18 GHz and preparations for 28 GHz operation are now underway. During the commissioning phase with 18 GHz, tests with various gases and metals have been performed with up to 2000 W RF power. The ion source performance is very promising. VENUS (Versatile ECR ion source for Nuclear Science) is a next generation superconducting ECR ion source, designed to produce high current, high charge state ions for the 88-Inch Cyclotron at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. VENUS also serves as the prototype ion source for the RIA (Rare Isotope Accelerator) front end. The goal of the VENUS ECR ion source project as the RIA R&D injector is the production of 240e(micro)A of U(sup 30+), a high current medium charge state beam. On the other hand, as an injector ion source for the 88-Inch Cyclotron the design objective is the production of 5e(micro)A of U(sup 48+), a low current, very high charge state beam. To meet these ambitious goals, VENUS has been designed for optimum operation at 28 GHz. This frequency choice has several design consequences. To achieve the required magnetic confinement, superconducting magnets have to be used. The size of the superconducting magnet structure implies a relatively large plasma volume. Consequently, high power microwave coupling becomes necessary to achieve sufficient plasma heating power densities. The 28 GHz power supply has been delivered in April 2004.

In this paper they discuss the impact of the superbends on the ALS beam parameters and particle dynamics. In particular they show the effect on the emittance, energy spread, and lifetime. They find that by adjusting the dispersion to be positive in the straight section they are able to largely restore the horizontal emittance. The vertical emittance can be adjusted independently to control the lifetime. The particle dynamics are investigated through particle tracking with a frequency analysis postprocessor. They find that by placing the three superbends symmetrically around the ring there is ample dynamic aperture for injection and lifetime. NTIS Particle Accelerators; Superconducting Magnets; X Rays

The first major goal was to develop new, powerful computational simulation capabilities. It was important that these tools have the combination of the accuracy needed to describe the quantum mechanical nature of nanoscale systems and the efficiency required to be applied to realistic, experimentally derived materials. The second major goal was to apply these computational methods to calculate and predict the properties of quantum dots--initially composed of silicon, but then of other elements--which could be used to build novel nanotechnology devices. The driving factor of our purpose has been that, through the development and successful application of these tools, we would generate a new capability at LLNL that could be used to make nanostructured materials ‘smarter’, e.g., by selectively predicting how to engineering specific, desired properties.

Recently, the Oslo Cyclotron Group has developed an experimental method to extract level densities and radiative strength functions simultaneously from the primary (gamma) rays after a light-ion reaction. A primary (gamma)-ray spectrum represents the (gamma)-decay probability distribution. The Oslo method is based on the Axel-Brink hypothesis, according to which the primary (gamma)-ray spectrum is proportional to the product of the level density at the final energy and the radiative strength function. The level density and the radiative strength function are fit to the experimental primary (gamma)-ray spectra, and then normalized to known data. The method works well for heavy nuclei. The present measurements extend the Oslo method to the lighter mass nuclei (sup 56)Fe and (sup 57)Fe. The experimental level densities in (sup 56)Fe and (sup 57)Fe reveal step structure. This step structure is a signature for nucleon pair breaking. The predicted pairing gap parameter is in good agreement with the step corresponding to the first pair breaking. Thermodynamic quantities for (sup 56)Fe and (sup 57)Fe are derived within the microcanonical and canonical ensembles using the experimental level densities. Energy- temperature relations are considered using caloric curves and probability density functions. The differences between the thermodynamics of small and large systems are emphasized.

Ordinarily this corresponds to energies near the Planck energy, but recently it has been pointed out that near to the event horizon of a black hole the coherence length can be much larger and Planck scale physics can take over at macroscopic distances from the event horizon. This has dramatic consequences for the phenomenology of black holes. If we assume that at the Planck scale elementary particles interact via a universal 4-point interaction and baryon number conservation is violated, then the rest mass of a star hitting the event horizon of a large black hole would be rapidly converted into a burst of gamma rays followed by a pulse of hard X-rays whose duration is on the order of the light transit time across the black hole. Predictions for the gamma ray spectra are strikingly similar to those observed for cosmic gamma ray bursts. NTIS Gamma Ray Bursts; Quantum Mechanics; Black Holes (Astronomy)

294 of physics. The focus is on the appearance of chaos in a beam distribution. A study of the problem is based on two observations. The First observation is that using Lyapunov method and its extension we obtain solutions of partial differential equations. Using this approach we discuss the problem of finding a solution of Vlasov-Poisson equation, i.e., some stationary solution where we consider magnetic field as some disturbance with a small parameter. Thus the solution of Vlasov equation yields an asymptotic series such that the solution of Vlasov-Poisson equation is the basis solution for one. The second observation is that physical chaos is weakly limit of, well known, the Landau bifurcation’s. This fact we have proved using ideas on the Nature of Turbulence.

The bursts occur when the electron beam current exceeds to threshold value which itself varies with ring operation conditions. Beyond threshold, the average intensity of the emission is found to increase as current squared. With other parameters held nearby constant the threshold current is found to increase quadratically with the synchrotron frequency, indicating a linear dependence on momentum compaction. It is believed that the coherent emission is a consequence of micro-bunching of the electron beam due to the microwave instability.

Resonant extraction is required in order to deliver a continuous stream of particles. In this report they describe the beam requirements and the system design. The basic design is a third integer resonant extraction process which employs a single thin magnetic septum and a thick septum ejector magnet. The expected extraction efficiency is about 85%, based on the thin septum thickness and the predicted step size of the resonant beam at the septum. This is more than sufficient for the low intensity low energy heavy ion beams needed for the BAF. In this report they present a detailed discussion of the design of the various elements and a discussion of the detailed modeling of resonant extraction from the AGS Booster.

The front layers (in the direction of the proton beam) are relatively transparent to the protons, and become progressively less transparent (blacker) with depth into the collimator. In addition, a high density (iron) shield is added around the outside. The protons will be stopped in the center of the collimator, and thus the bulk of the secondary particles are generated at this location.

AC-dipoles are magnets that can be adiabatically excited and de-excited with a continuous sine-wave in order to coherently move circulating beam out to large betatron amplitudes without incurring emittance blow up. The AGS already uses a similar device for getting polarized proton beams through depolarizing resonances. By placing the magnets in the IP4 common beam region, two AC-dipoles are sufficient to excite both horizontal and vertical motion in both

296 RHIC rings.

Magnesium sulfate was chosen for study because it is regarded as among the most likely constituents of Europa’s ocean and icy shell and constitutes key salts on Mars. The 17 wt.% composition is close to the eutectic. The new data, when combined with data from our earlier study of the density vs. pressure and temperature of MgSO4 solutions, will enable us to identify the phases with greater certainty and describe the phase transitions with greater precision. For example, we observe that the process of solidification of the supercooled sample involves a sequence in which a fine-grained structure forms rapidly, followed by the generation of liquid and then slower growth of large-grained crystals. The addition of visual images to our capability to track the changes in sample volume is also valuable to assess both stable and reversible phase changes and metastable phase transitions. Metastability has proven a key aspect of this system in the lab and in nature. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Timely and accurate equipment malfunction identification can be a key to success. It is also desirable to predict malfunctions well in advance of their actual occurrence. In this paper, we use neural networks to model time series data extracted from a three-step plasma etch process for defining active areas in a CMOS ASIC circuit. The data consists of real-time measurements from the three-step etch process for 40,000 silicon wafers collected over a six-month per’rod from a Drytek plasma etcher. Two types of anomalies were present in this data: 1) constant or slowly advancing time (indicating the presence of a machine fault); and 2) missing steps (indicating something unexpected happened during the etch). Data preprocessing is carried out to eliminate any data acquisition errors in the original data and to correctly separate the total time sequence into three sub-sequences (one for each etch step). A pattern recognition technique is used to determine the process step number for each record. The classification results and the prediction error demonstrate accurate determination of the etch step number from the chamber state. Dynamic neural network models are then constructed for each step. We initially focus on modeling the time series associated with chamber pressure. The time series of pressure data is modeled as a function of its previous values and the current time. We use this approach to construct time series models of the pressure variations in the etching system using only an initial condition and the time value as inputs.

A learning curve to drive both the Random and Systematic yield simultaneously are important to accelerate the yield learning on new products as well as existing products. This paper showed the systematic yield improvement from a module integration issue to an equipment setup and capability issue. A new methodology has been defined to look at the edge region of the wafer, and is used to address wafer edge issue with systematic approaches to drive yield improvement. The process variability on the center of the wafer is low, but as one approach the edge of the wafer, large process variations arise which depress the yield at the edge of the wafers. This decrease in yield can be caused by technology architecture, process uniformity, wafer misalignment and mark alignment scheme issues.

299 Metal-Oxide-Metal Capacitors, MOMCAPs, have historically demonstrated less than optimal leakage and breakdown characteristics and yields. Additionally, the Cpk for capacitance is low. Any previous work done to improve the die!__tric uniformity has resulted in further degradation of the capacitor characteristics. In this paper we will show that the parametric and reliability characteristics are very dependent on the bottom plate material. Our standard Ti bottom plate interacts with the capacitor dielectric resulting in degraded performance. That interaction renders a more uniform dielectric film unusable. We have developed a MOMCAP using TiW as the bottom plate electrode, which minimizes those interactions and improves capacitor characteristics.

The purpose of this work was to correlate the model parameters, in this case, percent volume fraction of phase components of polysilicon, generated by regression of model dispersion using Bruggerman Effective Media Approximation to data acquired by the Spectroscopic Ellipsometry technique. Several samples are prepared consisting of SiO2/Undoped Poly Si / SiO2 film stacks in order to measure their as-deposited average grain sizes. Ellipsonometric data is obtained for the center site of each sample which are then compared to AFM results from similar samples. Various grain geometry approximations are applied along with the assumption that the polysilicon structure may be modeled to consist of three components; crystalline Si in a continuous Amorphous Si matrix, and voids. A mathematical relation is established between the percent concentration of crystalline Silicon and the mean grain size for the two cases of equiaxed and columnuar microstructures. Results indicate there to be good correlation with AFM measured grain sizes Additional work is required to further demonstrate the correlation, and develop software applications to enable in-line product monitoring.

20050170523 International Business Machines Corp., Essex Junction, VT, USA Beyond Cost-of-Ownership: A Causal Methodology for Costing Wafer Processing Miraglia, Stephanie; Miller, Peter; Richardson, Thomas; Blunt, Gregory; Blouin, Cathy; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 289-293; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Classical cost-of-ownership data provides detailed cost data of equipment assets but does not provide wafer processing costs. Starting with a cost-of-ownership model, a wafer processing cost model was developed and validated. This cost-of-processing model provides wafer processing cost data from raw wafer through final passivation and parametric testing. This new model goes beyond classical cost-of-ownership data and captures more than just equipment costs-- process, product, and fabricator costs are also captured. These costs are then causally spread to wafers via various algorithmic methodologies. In order to do this, some historical cost problems had to be addressed, such as how to properly weight equipment usage and account for dedicated equipment requirements, deal with measurement sampling, incorporate idle time and contingency, and account for different photolithographic field sizes. Output from the model was fully validated against actual spending and tied to accounting data in order to assure a full dollar capture. The model is currently being used for product costing, decisionmaking, and cost reduction activities at the IBM Microelectronics Division Manufacturing Facility in Essex Junction, Vermont.

Now the silicon wafer minority carrier lifetime, or diffusion length has become one routinely required parameter. It is well known that, in addition to the crystal growth, metal contamination is one of the major limiting factors for the minority carrier lifetime in silicon wafers. It is very critical to optimize the silicon wafer manufacturing process flow to minimize metal contamination sources during the silicon wafer processing.

Typical measures of manufacturing excellence for a semiconductor fabricator are expressed in terms of either operational or economic results. Those expressed in terms of operational results are independent of the product mix in the fabricator while those expressed in terms of economic results integrate both fabricator and product design attributes into a single parameter like revenue/wafer. Improvements in the operational measures of manufacturing excellence focus upon increases in capacity and throughput, defect density reductions, and cost containment. Improvements in the economic measures of manufacturing excellence must focus on both fabricator processing efficiency and the productivity of the design. Design-for-manufacturability practices can improve design productivity, time-to-market, and product performance and reliability by closely coupling semiconductor fabrication knowledge with product requirements during the initial phase of a product design. Every design decision produces both technical and economic consequences; understanding these consequences and using this knowledge in the design process to optimize product productivity and profitability is key to achieving manufacturing excellence for that product.

Data correlation provides the capability for a user to request a plot of multiple data channels vs. time, and to make meaningful time-correlated data comparisons. The task of data correlation for RHIC requires careful consideration because data acquisition triggers are generated from various asynchronous sources including events from the RHIC Event Link, events from the two Beam Sync Links, and other unrelated clocks. In order to correlate data from asynchronous acquisition systems a common time reference is required. The RHIC data correlation methodology will allow all RHIC data to be converted to a common wall clock time, while still preserving native acquisition trigger information. A data correlation task force team, composed of the authors of this paper, has been formed to develop data correlation design details and provide guidelines for software developers. The overall data correlation methodology will be presented in this paper. NTIS Data Acquisition; Particle Accelerators; Data Correlation

The first indication that nucleons have an internal structure, was the measurement of the proton magnetic moment by Frisch and Stern (1933) which revealed a large deviation from the value expected for a point-like Dirac particle. The investigation of the spatial structure of the nucleon, resulting in the first quantitative measurement of the proton charge radius, was initiated by the HEPL (Stanford) experiments in the 1950s, for which Hofstadter was awarded the 1961 Nobel prize. The first indication of a non-zero neutron charge distribution was obtained by scattering thermal neutrons off atomic electrons. The recent revival of its experimental study through the operational implementation of novel instrumentation has instigated a strong theoretical interest. Nucleon electro-magnetic form factors (EMFFs) are optimally studied through the exchange of a virtual photon, in elastic electron-nucleon scattering. NTIS Nucleons; Form Factors; Neutrons; Protons

In all cases the eventual machines perform less well than expected, and it always appears as if an additional thermodynamic loss is acting. This empirically calibrated loss is therefore included as part of the normal design procedure and there is anecdotal evidence that this is an approach taken by other manufactures. Although this loss might be caused by imperfect heat transfer, existing theories do not agree with its magnitude. A project was therefore started to measure the losses in the simplest possible geometry, a linear compressor with a plain ‘top-hat’ cylinder head. It was hoped that by characterizing the losses in this geometry and applying them to full machines these called ‘compression loss’ could be explained. Since the loss is quite large it could allow significant improvements to be made for future machines. A well calibrated measurement system was developed and a linear compressor commissioned. To enable a sufficiently good energy balance to be produced electromagnetic motor losses and windage were measured. It immediately became clear that these were more significant than had been assumed previous studies. In fact it appeared as if a significant proportion of the ‘compression loss’ might be explained by these new measurements. With the losses expected from analytic analyses. Agreement was not perfect, however, and this is thought to be due to the incompleteness of the heat transfer theory, particularly with regard to the flow through the clearance seal. Future possibilities for work are suggested and it is hoped that these measurements can be used as a baseline for testing theoretical work which will enable efficiencies to be increased not just in Stirling type coolers, but also in pulse tubes and linear alternators.

Ironically, given the current industrial emphasis on high-frequency communications, high-speed computational systems, and high-bandwidth interconnection requirements, we find ourselves in a situation where increasing numbers of engineers need to have a grasp of high-frequency fundamentals. To address this need, we have re-focused the electromagnetic teaching laboratories in the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department at Brigham Young University to provide students with relevant, motivational design experiences with microwave systems. Our current laboratories are based on a 6 GHz Doppler radar in our Junior-level course, and a 6 GHz Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) in the Senior-level course. These laboratories focus on taking students through the entire design process, beginning with system-level engineering and moving through computer-aided design, fabrication, and testing. Because the end product is a functional, useful system, students can directly see the relevance of the experience as well as the associated theory taught in the accompanying course. We have observed a significant increase in student motivation since original inception of the revised laboratory experience.

20050170493 International Business Machines Corp., Essex Junction, VT, USA The Advantages of Using Short Cycle Time Manufacturing (SCM) Instead of Continuous Flow Manufacturing (CFM) Martin, Donald P.; 1998 IEEE/SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference And Workshop; [1998], pp. 43-49; In English; See also 20050170458; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Abstract - Over the past two decades continuous flow manufacturing (CFM) has been the principle operational tool to help manage and improve the utilization of manufacturing assets. As the name connotes, the key focus of CFM is to measure and manage the throughput of tools/toolsets that comprise the manufacturing line. To this end, there have been a variety of systems proposed to help manage throughput (e.g., PUSH , PULL, theory of constraints) with their attendant control methodologies (e.g., MRP, KANBAN, drum-buffer-rope, etc.). This paper explores how the X-factor (normalized cycle time) rather than throughput is used as the prime line control and line analysis parameter; hence, the name short cycle time manufacturing (SCM). Because manufacturing lines have both throughput and X-factor commitments, it is essential to understand the fundamental relationships between throughput, capacity and X-factor. This paper also demonstrates that X-factor is a much more sensitive indicator of capacity problems than throughput, because X-factor increases rapidly as the throughput approaches the effective capacity. This sensitivity in X-factor can be used as a powerful diagnostic tool to uncover unanticipated capacity issues. Short cycle time manufacturing (SCM) allows each tool/toolset to be analyzed depending on its demonstrated X-factor and capacity versus target to determine which tools/toolsets need improvement, since the overall X-factor of the line is just the weighted sums of the component toolset X-factors. In addition, this paper analyzes the impact of mix and volume with a cycle time constraint on the capacity of tools that are affected by batch or train size. Thus, SCM provides significant advantages over CFM in helping to manage and improve manufacturing asset utilization. Author Time Dependence; Manufacturing; Flow Charts

By tracking the progress of one or more of these metrics and setting achievement goals, many companies are able to make significant metric improvements. However, metric improvement is only beneficial if it results in actual manufacturing improvement. Metrics may be influenced by forces outside of manufacturing, they may conflict with other metrics, or they may actually increase undesirable outcomes in the lab. This paper highlights some of the current problems with metric utilization in semiconductor fabs. Examples from industry and results using data from the Competitive Semiconductor Manufacturing Study at the University of California at Berkeley are given. We present some practical solutions highlighting the Overall Equipment Effectiveness Teams at Texas Instruments which have been designed to minimize many of the semiconductor metric problems.

The Theory of Constraints uses the principles of covariance and dependent events to describe how equipment or operations that dominate factory performance should be managed. In practice the ‘true constraint’ is elusive and is seldom the designed

306 constraint. This paper introduces a new statistically based equipment performance management methodology called A80 which focuses on equipment or operation performance variability to rapidly identify and improve the performance of the ‘true constraint’. The A80 methodology initially developed at Intel’s Fab 10 facility and subsequently adopted by all Intel 200mm facilities rejects the traditional use of average availability as a primary indicator of equipment performance and capacity because it provides no indication of stability thus invariably fails to prompt the correct response to performance inconsistencies.

Most emergencies are small incidents with minor impact; however, the potential human and fmancial loss resulting from a large scale emergency can be very great. Prior experience had shown that although the Motorola and City of Austin emergency response groups operate effectively on an independent basis, cross-group communication and coordination needed improvement. To assist with this, a large-scale, multiple emergency drill involving all groups was conducted. A forty-two member simulation team was organized to design and implement a scenario using Dynamic Simulation in order to make the drill as realistic as possible. A five hour drill was successfully completed without interruption to manufacturing with approximately eighty responders at eight different, simultaneous activity areas across a 245 acre campus containing five manufacturing facilities. Several opportunities to improve and refine the processes of preplanning, response, follow-up and drill implementation were identified.

The loss of capacity caused by staffing, whether planned or unplanned, has the potential of being the single most significant operational detractor in a semiconductor line. A number of issues related to staffing strategies and operational methodologies for a semiconductor line will affect capacity loss. On the one hand, there is the need to be cost competitive by reducing staffing and increasing productivity. On the other, the cost of idle equipment and loss of tool capacity because of insufficient staffing must be considered. Many issues are involved in determining accurate capacity loss because of staffing and identifying the components of that loss. This paper discusses ways to determine capacity loss and other concerns related to staffing on various tool sets in a semiconductor manufacturing line using the techniques of multiobservation study (MOS) and data analysis.

307 Additionally, it describes the link between the quantity and main contributing factors that result in a given loss. Finally, it examines some strategies for reducing the effect of staffing on capacity. Author Personnel Management; Losses; Industrial Management; Assembling

However, it is difficult for equipment suppliers to support the permanent dedicated research staff required to bear their increasing R&D burden. Likewise, their counterparts inside the chip manufacturer are urged to focus on current process development, integration, and efficiency issues. This shift in the R&D burden has been widely recognized in the supplier community, which has referred to it as the ‘Technology Gap.’ This paper describes one way of dealing with that technology gap. A successful joint development project (JDP) between SpeedFam Corporation and Lucent Technologies is described and used to exemplify how the R&D burden can be properly balanced by allowing each organization to focus on their core competency. Key to the success of the JDP was the use of private, independent R&D supplied under contract by Southwest Research Institute, which also helped facilitate the balance through preliminary self-funded R&D. The paper explains how issues regarding intellectual property protection and ownership were successfully resolved and will briefly describe the technology produced from the project.

Fluctuation in part number mix can lead to multiple pinch points in the production process. To contain wafer starts, new process qualification must be quickly implemented. However, this may introduce ‘risk’ into the line work in process (WIP). In addition, any production pinch points will hamper the fabricator’s ability to maintain adequate line cycle time. This paper demonstrates a methodology that can be used to relate part number variation in the fabricator to the available tool capacity in various process sectors. This methodology allows for real time analysis, and is primarily intended for proactive management of capacity-constrained production sectors.

The federal government s encryption export policy highlights a complex information age issue involving seemingly insurmountable conflicts between national security, law enforcement, privacy, and business interests. Encryption employs mathematical algorithms, implemented in either hardware or software, to encode or scramble a sequence of data. Although cryptography has been used for centuries, the rise of the Internet and electronic commerce pushed the issue of encryption control to the forefront of public debate during the 1990s. Formerly the near-exclusive domain of governments, the majority of today’s encryption products flow from private industry backed by private funding for use in the private sector. While encryption rose to increasing importance in cyberspace to secure communications and establish trustworthiness, the federal government continued to follow the traditional national security paradigm of export controls. A series of policy decisions by the Clinton Administration on encryption export controls during the 1990s ignited a heated public discourse and a continuing search for a balance between competing interests. The Administration s pursuit of balance apparently reached its end-state with an announcement on September 16, 1999 to reverse US export restrictions on strong encryption, a radical departure from previous reliance on export controls. The federal government’s search for balance among competing interests in its encryption export policy illustrates the substantial difficulties facing policy makers in the Information Age. While the search for policy balance appears to prove the ultimate adequacy of the Constitutional framework and the policy making process to deal with complex issues in cyberspace, it clearly highlights the imperative for national policy makers to recognize Information Age realities. 7 DTIC Cryptography; International Trade; Policies

This has, in turn, given rise to the possibility of developing soldier-specific, data-driven predictive models for assessing physiological status in the battlefield. This paper explores how the accuracy of a predictive model based on first principles physiology can be enhanced by data-driven ‘black box’ techniques of modeling and predicting human physiological variables. Such hybrid techniques are employed here in the prediction of core temperature. Preliminary results show that the mean square error of prediction can be reduced by up to fifty percent for prediction horizons of up to 30 minutes.

The data used in this study were drawn from the Department of Defense Civilian Personnel Data Files provided by the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC). The initial data was restricted to employees who were initially hired in 1995 and stayed in service until 2003 and were paid under the General Schedule (GS) pay system. Three general performance measures were used: compensation (salary), annual performance ratings and promotions. Multivariate models were specified and estimated for each of these performance measures. The results indicate that females receive lower annual and hourly compensation and are less likely to be promoted than men even though they receive better performance ratings. The results also indicate that minorities are paid less and are less likely to be promoted than majority workers while veterans are paid more, perform better, and are more likely to become supervisors. The models also reveal that performance rating is a weak measure of productivity and that more highly educated employees are paid more and more likely to be promoted more even if they are not always the best performers.

311 Ad hoc networks are very important for scenarios where there is not fixed network infrastructure. These scenarios may appear both in the military and the commercial world. Even though there is much advancement in the area of these networks, the main drawback is that ad hoc networks do not scale well because the existing protocols (e.g., MAC, routing, security) cannot tolerate their dynamics. A remedy to this problem could exist if these protocols were applied in hierarchical manner. The hierarchy generation in these dynamic environments can be advantageous since the numerous topological changes can be tolerated easier and the various protocols can perform better when dealing with smaller groups of nodes. On the other hand, hierarchy has to be generated carefully in order to be beneficial for the network otherwise it may harm it, because of the imposed maintenance overhead. The weakness of the existing network clustering algorithms is that they do not take into consideration the dynamics of the network environment, so in cases of increased mobility their overhead may deteriorate network performance instead of improving it. In this paper we present a new dynamic distributed clustering (DDC) algorithm. The basic characteristic of this algorithm is that it takes into consideration the network dynamics for the generation of robust and efficient clusters. DDC can be applied in highly mobile networks and we show that it presents better scalability and robustness characteristics from well known existing clustering algorithms.

312 This thesis investigates the effect of marital and family status on the performance and job productivity of male U.S. Marine Corps officers. The analysis includes evaluation of fitness reports, retention, and promotion to O-4 and O-5 ranks as performance measures. The primary goal is to examine the existence of any marriage premium on officers’ performance and productivity and to investigate potential causal hypotheses. The personnel database used for the analysis includes more than 27,000 male Marine officers who entered the Marine Corps between FY 1980 and 1999. After controlling for selection, estimating fixed effects and using panel data in order to capture timely-varying effects, this study finds that there is a marriage premium for all performance measures. The thesis rejects the explanation that such premiums are due to supervisor favoritism. Moreover, married male officers obtain higher fitness report scores, higher promotion probabilities, and higher retention probabilities than single officers. Each additional year spent in marriage increases fitness report scores and retention probabilities. Having additional non-spousal dependents increase fitness report scores and retention probabilities. On the other hand, being a currently single but ‘to-be-married’ officer yields higher premium, as married officers, for all productivity and performance indicators. This supports selectivity into marriage as a partial explanation of the source of the marriage premium. DTIC Data Bases; Males; Military Personnel; Personnel Management; Productivity

These infrastructures are highly interdependent, particularly because of the inter-netted nature of the information components and because of their reliance on the national information infrastructure. The information infrastructure depends, in turn, upon other infrastructures such as electrical power. Protecting the infrastructures against physical and electronic attacks and ensuring the availability of the infrastructures will be complicated. These infrastructures are provided mostly (and in some cases exclusively) by the commercial sector; regulated in part by federal, state, and local governments; and significantly influenced by market forces. Commercial services from the national information infrastructure provide the vast majority of the telecommunications portion of the Defense Information Infrastructure (DII). These services are regulated by Federal and state agencies. Local government agencies regulate the cable television portion of the information infrastructure. Power generation and distribution are provided by very diverse activities-the Federal government, public utilities, cooperatives, and private companies.

In a response to the overwhelming flow of compassion from the International Arab and Muslim Communities President Bush quickly reached out to America and the rest of the world to make the USG’s case to respond quickly to the terrorist activity around the world. Proposing a global war on terrorism (GWOT) he would deliver an eloquent but stern message successfully framing why America and the freedom-loving citizens around the world needed to unit to fight the war on terrorism. Almost two years later as America faced a second war with the brutal government of Iraq the USG again engaged the international community to state its case for war. This time engaging too slowly America’s positive support gained through public diplomacy and public affairs would quickly dissipate. Thus making it very difficult to convince the world and the Arab and Muslim Communities that America and the coalition were doing the right thing by in going to war with Iraq for a second time. This SRP will examine the importance of Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs. It will review the current USG policy on public diplomacy and the military’s role of public affairs. Further the paper will discuss world opinion of USG policy assess whether the U.S. military should carry the burden of public diplomacy to win the hearts and minds and provide a recommendation for improving the USG Pubic Diplomacy posture in our current global war on terrorism.

The 121st GH pharmacy is an integral piece in the provision of health care in Korea. The purpose of the study is to determine the indicators of effective pharmacy support and determine if our current pharmaceutical logistics practice is efficient. The study reports an innovative application of multivariate approaches to predict order ship time (OST). The sample consists of 122 days of pharmaceutical requisitions. Pharmaceutical logistics data are used to estimate a multiple regression model of OST for demand satisfaction and accommodation, requisition cost and volume and source of supply. Multivariate correlations among five independent variables and the dependent variable, OST, are calculated. The average OST is 6.99 days. Demand satisfaction, requisition volume and source of supply measures make statistically significant contributions to the shared variance in overall OST, and yield an R(exp 2) of .225 (F(5, 116)= 6.72; p \h .0001). The study’s results, its usefulness for enhancing leadership’s ability to evaluate pharmaceutical logistics, and its implications for current systems are discussed. By improving pharmaceutical logistics, the 121st General Hospital may deliver better health care on the Korean peninsula.

Planning in the fire service and the rest of the first responder community historically has relied on a one-dimensional approach that uses a scenario-based planning (SBP) methodology. This thesis argues that the fire service and others in the first responder community will be able to contribute to homeland security missions much more effectively, and efficiently, by switching to specially adapted versions of capabilities-based planning. This thesis proposes a new integrated planning methodology that combines the planning strengths of scenariobased planning, threat-based planning, and capabilities-based planning. The new method identifies capabilities that could be used to manage and mitigate the consequences of the different types of contingencies within the various response spectrums. It allows an organization to perform analysis and efficiency studies to evaluate the different spectrums of contingencies against existing capabilities and create a menu of capabilities necessary for the first responder to respond to all its missions, including immediate threats and terrorism, in the most efficient and cost-effective manner.

20050173440 Mayo Foundation, Rochester, MN USA Molecular Database Construction and Mining: A General Approach to Unconventional Pathogen Countermeasures Pang, Yuan-Ping; Dec. 2004; 4 pp.; In English Contract(s)/Grant(s): DAAD19-01-1-0322 Report No.(s): AD-A432883; ARO-42295.1-LS; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) One general approach to unconventional pathogen countermeasures is to use specific inhibitors to cripple enzymes such as proteases that are pivotal to pathogen invasions. For example, botulinum toxins can be detoxified by inhibitors targeting the zinc endopeptidase located in the light-chain region of botulinum toxins, and anthrax can be detoxified by inhibitors targeting anthrax’s lethal factor which is a zinc protease. The generality of this approach rests on the fact that all pathogen invasions are enzyme-dependent. Furthermore, viral and bacterial enzymes have high substrate specificity and can therefore be inhibited by specific inhibitors without interfering with other enzymes required for normal functions. This approach has been conceptually validated by the clinical use of protease inhibitors for treating various pathogen invasions. It is, however, not suitable for military use in its present form, because typically ten years are required to develop an effective protease inhibitor. Here we propose to use the advanced supercomputing technology to shorten the drug discovery process. DTIC Construction; Countermeasures; Data Bases; Information Retrieval; Microorganisms; Pathogens

This paper presents the transformation of a M113 Armored Personnel Carrier into an autonomous and teleoperated vehicle for operation in jungle-like conditions. The system was partitioned into functional

316 systems: Vehicle Control/ Mobility, Piloting, Visual Guidance, Teleoperation and Communications. Details of the system architecture and major components are included. Emphasis is made on the perception mechanisms developed for visual guidance, the vehicle conversion into a computer-controlled system and the implementation of navigation algorithms for localization and path planning. A suite of onboard active and passive sensors is used in the visual guidance system. Data fusion is performed on the outputs of the different types of the sensors. The fusion result fed to the path planner that generates heading and speed commands to maneuver the vehicle towards the desired position. The vehicle controller executes the speed and heading commands and ensures the vehicle fast and safe response. The results from field trials completed in tropical forest conditions that are unique to the region are included. DTIC Architecture (Computers); Personnel; Tracked Vehicles; Unmanned Ground Vehicles

However, this paper reports on the ability of FPGAs to greatly accelerate non-numerical applications, particularly fundamental operations supporting publish subscribe information management environments. The specific core service accelerated by FPGAs is the brokering of XML metadata of publications against the XPATH logical predicates expressing the types of publications that the subscribers wish to receive. The acceleration is not achieved solely by the FPGA, but by its close coordination with a programmable processor within a Heterogeneous, HPC architecture (HHPC). Two subtasks addressed by the FPGA are the parsing of the ASCII XML publication metadata into an exploitable binary form, followed by the partial evaluation of up to thousands of subscription predicates, with results reported back to the programmable processor. On the first subtask, the FPGA implements a state machine the parses 1 ascii character per clock cycle, presently with a 50 MHz clock on 6M gate Xilinx Virtex II FPGAs. This reduces parse time typical information object metadata from 2 milliseconds to around 50 microseconds (40X speedup). Once the data is parsed, the fields broadcast to parallel logic, which evaluates the subscription predicates. The FPGA synthesis tools do a surprising effective job of optimizing the logic to evaluate these XPATH predicates. In one typical case, 2000 predicates compiled down to only require 2.9% of the 6M gate FPGA resources.

B.; Kogut, G.; Thompson, M.; Jan. 2005; 7 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A432959; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) High-level intelligence allows a mobile robot to create and interpret complex world models, but without a precise control system, the accuracy of the world model and the robot’s ability to interact with its surroundings are greatly diminished. This problem is amplified when the environment is hostile, such as in a battlefield situation where an error in movement response may lead to destruction of the robot. As the presence of robots on the battlefield continues to escalate and the trend toward relieving the human of the low-level control burden advances, the ability to combine the functionalities of several critical control systems on a single platform becomes imperative.

M.; Feb. 2005; 8 pp.; In English; Original contains color illustrations Report No.(s): AD-A433019; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) To address the need for security in high performance systems, an architecture-based on a small separation, or partitioning, kernel was proposed. This architecture, termed the MILS (Multiple Independent Levels of Security) architecture classifies the

317 components of a system into three layers, the Partitioning Kernel, the Middleware layer (which includes many operating system functions commonly found combined with an OS kernel, as well as code more traditionally termed middleware), and the Application layer. This approach can be implemented and used effectively in high performance systems. In MILS, basic, general purpose security policies are enforced at lower levels by the Partitioning Kernel and middleware layer. Enforcement of these basic security policies permits the top layer to implement other, application-specific security policies-such as Bell-LaPadula (BLP), Biba, Community of Interest, etc.-with confidence that the code that implements these policies will have the characteristics of a reference monitor: Non-bypassable, Evaluatable, Always-invoked and Tmper-roof (NEAT). The ability of these systems to transfer data at high speed is not compromised by a MILS design. These concepts are extended to a collection of MILS nodes called an enclave. The PCS (Partitioning Communication System) provides the high-assurance secure communication between the MILS nodes in the enclave. The PCS was designed with HPEC systems in mind. The PCS includes zero-copy semantics for secure communications. Like the Partitioning Kernel, the PCS requires formal methods and mathematical models to assure correctness. The presentation will describe the performance impact and optimizations of the PCS on HPEC environments. DTIC Information Transfer; Safety; Security

These materials were transported outward and subsequently mixed with molecular cloud materials and presolar grains in the region where comets accreted [1]. GEMS (glass with embedded metal and sulfides) grains are a major component of these primitive anhydrous IDPs, along with crystalline Mg-rich silicates, Fe-Ni sulfides, carbonaceous material, and other trace phases. Some GEMS grains (~5%) are demonstrably presolar based on their oxygen isotopic compositions [2]. However, most GEMS grains are isotopically solar and have bulk chemical compositions that are incompatible with inferred compositions of interstellar dust, suggesting a solar system origin [3]. An alternative hypothesis is that GEMS grains represent highly irradiated interstellar grains whose oxygen isotopic compositions were homogenized through processing in the interstellar medium (ISM) [4]. We have obtained the first quantitative X-ray maps (spectrum images) showing the distribution of major and minor elements in individual GEMS grains. Nanometer-scale chemical maps provide critical data required to evaluate the differing models regarding the origin of GEMS grains.

320 of impacts by dust particles (Humes, 1980) larger than 10 m. This was unexpected, as the dust from comets, which were the only potential sources of dust known at the time, is believed to be less concentrated at larger heliocentric distances. At the time, an exotic distribution of cometary orbits had to be introduced in order to explain the Pioneer data. Dust from outside the solar system can not explain the constant flux detected by the Pioneer experiments, because the interstellar flux of dust particles large enough to be detectable by the Pioneer instruments is at least an order of magnitude lower than the detected flux (Landgraf et al. , 2000). The discovery of objects in the Edgeworth-Kuiper belt (EKB) (Jewitt & Luu, 1993) offered the possibility for another dust source: The objects in the EKB should produce dust by mutual collisions and by collisions with interstellar dust particles (Yamamoto & Mukai, 1998), forming a disk of dust around the Sun. Modelling the evolution of the orbits of dust grains from the EKB Landgraf et al. (2002) showed, that indeed the Pioneer data can only be explained by dust migrating in from the EKB under the influence of the Poynting-Robertson drag.

At Mars, the Electron Reflectometer (ER) experiment onboard Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) also observed the event near 21:13 UT. It was characterized by a very short intense spike of counts at high energies, characteristic of penetrating radiation. Twenty minutes later, an unusual response was observed in the Martian ionosphere. A significant enhancement was seen at low energies (\h500 eV), coincident with a dropout in flux at higher energies (\g1 keV). We will present an overview of the event as observed by the MGS ER. As more detailed spacecraft ephemeris information becomes available, we will look in more detail at the time history, energy spectrum, and angular distribution of the initial spike and the subsequent ionospheric response. We will also compare the timing of the event with that observed by spacecraft at Earth, and compare and contrast the ionospheric response with that at Earth.

Four 0.8 m APTs have been dedicated to measuring subtle luminosity variations that accompany magnetic cycles in solar-type stars. Over 1000 program and comparison stars have been observed every clear night in this program for up to 12 years with a precision of approximately 0.0015 mag for a single observation. We have developed a transit-search algorithm, based on fitting a computed transit template for each trial period, and have used it to search our photometric database for transits of unknown companions. Extensive simulations with the APT data have shown that we can reliably recover transits with periods under 10 days as long as the transits have a depth of at least 0.0024 mag, or about 1.6 times the scatter in the photometric observations. Thus, due to our high photometric precision, we are sensitive to transits of possible short-period Neptune-mass planets that likely would have escaped detection by current radial velocity techniques. Our search of the APT data sets for 1087 program and comparison stars revealed no new transiting planets. However, the detection of several unknown grazing eclipsing binaries from among our comparison stars, with eclipse depths of only a few millimags, illustrates the success of our technique. We have used this negative result to place limits on the frequency of Neptune-mass planets in close orbits around solar-type stars in the Sun’s vicinity.

The current realization of the extragalactic frame is the International Celestial Reference Frame (ICRF) . The ICRF is defined by the radio positions of 212 extragalactic objects and is the IAU sanctioned fundamental astronomical reference frame. This key project will advance our knowledge of the physics of the objects which will make up the SIM grid, such as quasars and chromospherically active stars, and relates directly to the stability of the SIM reference frame.

20050173326 Naval Observatory, Washington, DC USA Long-Term Evolution of Orbits about a Precessing Oblate Planet: 1. The Case of Uniform Precession Efroimsky, Michael; Aug. 2004; 57 pp.; In English Report No.(s): AD-A432632; No Copyright; Avail: Defense Technical Information Center (DTIC) It was believed until very recently that a near-equatorial satellite would always keep up with the planet’s equator (with oscillations in inclination, but without a secular drift). This misconception originated from a wrong interpretation of a (mathematically correct) result obtained in terms of non-osculating orbital elements. A similar analysis carried out in the language of osculating elements will endow the planetary equations with some extra terms caused by the planet’s obliquity change. Some of these terms will be nontrivial, in that they will not be amendments to the disturbing function. Due to the extra terms, the variations of a planet’s obliquity may cause a secular drift of its satellite orbit inclination. In this article we set out the analytical formalism for our study of this drift. We demonstrate that, in the case of uniform precession, the drift will be extremely slow, because the first-order terms responsible for the drift will be short-period and, thus, will have vanishing orbital averages, while the secular terms will be of the second order only. However, it turns out that variations of the planetary precession make the first-order terms secular. For example, the planetary nutations will resonate with the satellite’s orbital frequency and, thereby, may instigate a secular drift. A detailed study of this process will be offered in the subsequent publication, while here we work out the required mathematical formalism and point out the key aspects of the dynamics.

Unfortunately, both of these runs were failures, primarily because of bad weather, and did not result in any useful data. We combined the FUSE observations with rocket borne observations of the star responsible for exciting the H2 fluorescence in IC 63: gamma Cas, and with archival HUT observations of IC 63, covering the long-wavelength part of the molecular hydrogen fluorescence.

In January of 2006, NASA’s Stardust Mission will return to Earth with particles captured in silica aerogel collected from the coma of Comet Wild-2 as well as fresh interstellar dust. The primary objective of the mission is the collection of 1000 analyzable particles of diameter \g15 micron. Estimates from on-board instrumentation indicate 3 times that number were collected. Each of these femto- to nanogram particles is potentially a heavyweight in terms of scientific return. Scientific and technical preparations for Stardust’s return have long been underway via analysis of analogues like interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) collected in the stratosphere and micrometeoroids captured in low earth orbit in aerogel collectors (e.g. the Orbital Debris Collector Experiment). To study such small volumes of material non-destructively, synchrotron radiation techniques have been used with increasing frequency. These techniques include microdiffraction to determine mineralogy, X-Ray Fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) to determine elemental compositions and distributions, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrometry and Scanning Transmission X-ray Microscopy (STXM) combined with soft X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure (XANES) spectroscopy at the C and O absorption thresholds to study the chemical environment of organic compounds and hard x-ray XANES to study chemical states of transition metal elements. Of key importance in analysis of Stardust particles is a non-destructive means of extracting chemical information on both major and trace elemental constituents. We describe a collaborative effort at the Stanford Synchrotron Radiation Laboratory (SSRL) on beamline 6-2 to use micro-focus x-ray beams for the study of meteoritic and cometary materials.

Cosmogenic nuclides are used to study the histories of meteorites and lunar samples. Gamma rays and neutrons are used to map the compositions of planetary surfaces, such as Mars, the Moon, and asteroids. In almost all of these cases, the spectra of incident GCR particles are fairly similar, with only some modulation by the Sun over an 11-year cycle. Strong magnetic fields can seriously affect the energy spectrum of GCR particles hitting the surface of objects inside the magnetic fields. The Earth s geomagnetic field is strong enough that only GCR particles with magnetic rigidities above approx. 17 GV (a proton energy of approx. 17 GeV) reach the atmosphere over certain regions near the equator. This effect of removing lower-energy GCR particles is called a cutoff. The jovian magnetic fields are so strong that the fluxes of GCR particles hitting the 4 large Galilean satellites are similarly affected. The cutoff at Europa is estimated to be similar to or a little higher than at the Earth s equator.

During the encounter, the Stardust Optical Navigation Camera (ONC) obtained 72 images of the nucleus with exposure times alternating between 10 ms (near-optimal for most of the nucleus surface) and 100 ms (used for navigation, and revealing additional details in the coma and dark portions of the surface. Phase angles varied from 72 deg. to near zero to 103 deg. during the encounter, allowing the entire sunlit portion of the surface to be imaged. As many as 20 of the images near closest approach are of sufficiently high resolution to be used in mapping the nucleus surface; of these, two pairs of short-exposure images were used to create the nucleus shape model and derived products reported here. The best image resolution obtained was approx. 14 m/pixel, resulting in approx. 300 pixels across the nucleus. The Stardust Wild 2 dataset is therefore markedly superior from a stereomapping perspective to the Deep Space 1 MICAS images of comet Borrelly. The key subset of the latter (3 images) covered only about a quarter of the surface at phase angles approx. 50 - 60 and less than 50 x 160 pixels across the nucleus, yet it sufficed for groups at the USGS and DLR to produce digital elevation models (DEMs) and study the morphology and photometry of the nucleus in detail.

Though the specific heating mechanism has not yet been understood clearly, the shock wave heating is considered to be one of the most plausible models to explain the various properties of chondrules; peak temperatures, stability of melt droplets, the size range, and heating rates. However, source of shock waves is still under debate. Proposed models include bow shocks in front of fast moving planetesimals, accretion shocks at the surface of nebula, and spiral density waves induced by the disk self-gravity, though every model has some drawbacks. Here, we report that chondrule forming shock waves can be generated in the upper region of the solar nebula by X-ray flares associated with the young Sun. X-ray flares, common among T Tauri stars, emit plasma gas, which cools to be a strong neutral gas wind. The energy, the dimension, and the frequency of X-ray flares associated with T Tauri stars are much larger than those of the current Sun. Typical luminosity in the X-ray wavelength region is about two orders of magnitude higher than the current solar flare. Since the energy released by the X-ray flares is so large, it is naturally expected that the flares have some effects on the dynamics and energetics of a protoplanetary disk around the star. Observations of X-ray flares around young T Tauri stars indicate that their activity lasts of the order of 10(exp 6) to 10(exp 7) yr, which is consistent with the range of chondrule formation ages. In this work, we numerically simulate the X-ray flares and expanding magnetic bubbles with the disk, and examine whether or not shock waves which can form chondrules are generated in the nebula. Preliminary results were reported last year. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

The formation and survival of such objects presents a conundrum. Two competing theories have been postulated to try to solve this problem. One entails the physical collision of bodies while the other utilizes dynamical friction or a third body to dissipate excess momentum and energy from the system. Although in general known binaries tend to differ significantly in mass, such as seen in the Earth-Moon or asteroid binary systems, Kuiper binaries discovered to date tend to instead be of similar size. This paper investigates the stability, development and lifetimes for Kuiper Belt binaries by tracking their orbital dynamics and subsequent evolution. Section two details the numerical model while Section three discusses the initial conditions. Finally, in Section four the results are discussed with Section five containing the conclusions.

In contrast Earth has an average surface temperature of 288 K and 1-4% water vapor in its troposphere. The hot and dry conditions on Venus led many to speculate that hydrous minerals on the surface of Venus would not be there today even though they might have formed in a potentially wetter past. Thermodynamic calculations predict that many hydrous minerals are unstable under current Venusian conditions. Thermodynamics predicts whether a particular mineral is stable or not, but we need experimental data on the decomposition rate of hydrous minerals to determine if they survive on Venus today. Previously, we determined the decomposition rate of the amphibole tremolite, and found that it could exist for billions of years at current surface conditions. Here, we present our initial results on the decomposition of phlogopite mica, another common hydrous mineral on Earth. Author Venus Surface; Water Vapor; Amphiboles; Decomposition; Thermodynamics

They have been interpreted as having either a nebular [1-4] or impact [5] origin. CH chondrites are metal-rich, and contain chondrules that are significantly smaller than those in other chondrite groups. They were included as members of the CR chondrite clan by [6]. Acfer 182, although very similar in many respects to ALH85085, differs from it in several significant respects: it has larger chondrules (mean chondrule diameter is ~ 90 m vs. ~20 m), and a lower metal content (9 vs 20 vol. %) [7]. Bischoff et al. [7] suggested that Acfer 182 should be included in the CH group, whereas Weisberg et al. [6] argued that it is sufficiently different from the other CH chondrites that it should be considered a unique chondrite. The CH chondrite, NWA739 [8], has close affinities to Acfer 182. Here we report the results of preliminary studies of the oxygen isotope distribution in this chondrite. We are investigating the relationship between NWA739, Acfer182 and the ALH85085-like chondrites, as well as the possibility, suggested by [6], that chondrule silicates in CR clan chondrites lie on the equilibrated chondrite slope-1 line (ECL) on an oxygen 3-isotope plot.

Age data, collected as part of an investigation by Barra et al., will be presented in detail in. Here, only the age dating result is summarized. This rock fragment garnered our attention because it is significantly enriched in incompatible elements, e.g., 7 ppm thorium, compared to other known lunar basalts. Its mineral- and trace-element chemistry set it apart from other Apollo 12 basalts and indeed from all Apollo and Luna basalts. What makes it potentially very significant is the possibility that it is a sample of a relatively young, thorium-rich basalt flow similar to those inferred to occur in the Procellarum region, especially northwestern Procellarum, on the basis of Lunar Prospector orbital data. Exploiting the lunar regolith for the diversity of rock types that have been delivered to a landing site by impact processes and correlating them to their likely site of origin using remote sensing will be an important part of future missions to the Moon. One such mission is Moonrise, which would collect regolith samples from the South Pole-Aitken Basin, concentrating thousands of rock fragments of 3-20 mm size from the regolith, and returning the samples to Earth.

Almost everything we know about presolar graphite is based on these studies. This is because graphite is present mainly in very primitive meteorites and the separation procedure of graphite is far more complicated than that of SiC. Presolar graphite is known to be the carrier of Ne-E(L) and according to noble gas analyses, its abundance in Orgueil is estimated to be an order of magnitude higher than that in Murchison. A previous effort has been made to isolate this abundant presolar graphite in Orgueil: with the separation procedure previously applied to Murchison, Pravdivtseva et al. obtained a fraction with a density of approx. 1.8 g/cu cm and grain size greater than 1 micron. Observations in a scanning electron microscope (SEM) showed that grains from this Orgueil fraction closely resemble those of Murchison graphite, exhibiting the same onion- type morphology. However, NanoSIMS isotopic analyses of C and N of 162 grains yielded only normal ratios, indicating that the grains had a solar system origin. In addition, Ne isotopic analysis of 14 individual grains, by high-transmission ion-counting noble gas mass spectrometry, did not detect any excesses in 22Ne above the blank.

They remained a subject of geologic scrutiny through the 1970 s and subsequently faded from the spotlight, but recent Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) images showing morphologically similar structures in Athabasca Valles, Mars, have sparked renewed interest in BRSs. The only known BRSs occur in the Channeled Scabland, a region where catastrophic Pleistocene floods from glacial Lake Missoula eroded into the Miocene flood basalts of the Columbia Plateau. The geologic setting of the martian ring structures (MRSs) is similar; Athabasca Valles is a young channel system that formed when catastrophic aqueous floods carved into a volcanic substrate. This study investigates the formation of terrestrial BRSs and examines the extent to which they are appropriate analogs for the MRSs in Athabasca Valles.

Recently documented results of the Mars Odyssey spacecraft [1] using the Gamma-Ray Spectrometer Instrument Suite [2] show deposits on Mars with 2-11% water-equivalent hydrogen by mass for equatorial latitudes between 45deg. Because of the present martian thermal conditions this water can not be liquid bulk water or water ice and it was referred to in [3] as to be at last partially ‘adsorption water’. The possible presence of water-bearing minerals under martian surface conditions was evaluated in [4] (zeolites and clays) as well as in [5] (magnesium sulfates). Spectral evidence for the existence of zeolites in the dust of Mars was given in [6] and for other materials such as nontronite, gypsum, kieserite, hematite and others from OMEGA experiments [7]. We have experimentally evaluated the water sorption properties of several of these minerals close to martian surface conditions (temperature and partial pressure of water in mid- and low-latitudes) to contribute to a better understanding of the rather high water concentrations in the martian regolith as discussed above.

Numerous laboratory studies of evaporation residues have been conducted to investigate isotope fractionation behavior during evaporation. We have previously reported high-precision Mg isotopic data (obtained by multicollector inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry) for a suite of Type B CAI-like silicate glasses evaporated in a vacuum furnace that clearly demonstrate Rayleigh fractionation behavior. However, the kinetic gas-melt isotopic fractionation factors (alpha ) indicated by these data differ markedly from the square root of the inverse mass ratio of the evaporating species (i.e., alpha = (24/25)(sup 1/2), the value expected from kinetic theory if all isotopes of Mg have identical evaporation coefficients). Potential sources of error or bias, such as analytical artifacts, diffusion-limited evaporation and recondensation, have all been eliminated as possible causes of this discrepancy. Thus, evaporation coefficients for the different isotopes of Mg do not appear to be identical, and they also appear to be weakly temperature dependent.

Impact cratering statistics were utilized in order to formulate the relative geologic age and thus, the timing for the emplacement of various ridged plains map units. From a volcanological perspective, martian basins, such as Schiaparelli, are of significance for two reasons: 1) large impact basins produce a tectonic array that serves as conduits for subsequent volcanism; and 2) basins are sites of plutonic features that may be associated with rich hydrothermal ore deposits.

In contrast to terrestrial seismic data, the lunar data are confined in spatial and temporal extent. Lunar seismograms are also noisy due to instrument limitations and scattering of seismic energy. In order to restrict the range of seismic velocity models that fit the data, a layered structure is typically assumed as a proxy for compositional or phase changes. Despite these assumptions, existing models show significant differences (Figure 1). While lunar seismic data are inferior to their terrestrial counterparts, we can take advantage of the limited range of pressures and temperatures in the Moon, compared with Earth, to construct mineralogical models for the whole lunar mantle. We adopt a self-consistent formulation of such models, and their associated physical properties, including seismic wave velocities [6,7]. We test our models against published [2,5] and new [8] travel times. This direct comparison of mineral physics models with

329 seismological data, as opposed to derived seismological models, has not previously been done, even for Earth. The thermodynamic formulation is general so we can look at the effects on shear and compressional velocities of adding accessory or minor minerals. New thermodynamic or seismic data can also be readily incorporated and tested. Derived from text Data Structures; Seismology; Seismic Energy; Confinement; Lunar Mantle; Mineralogy

Past discussions of solid material formed in these regions have focused on differences expected between material formed near giant planets where carbon is generally expected to be in the reduced, CH4, form and material formed in the outer protoplanetary solar nebula where CO is believed to be the dominant form [1]. The composition and expected density of these materials are quite sensitive to the C and O solar abundances in all these models.

20050169811 Washington Univ., Saint Louis, MO, USA Composition of Meridiani Hematite-rich Spherules: A Mass-Balance Mixing-Model Approach jOLLIFF, b. l.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 10; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169793; Original contains color and black and white illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document One of the great surprises of the Mars Exploration Rovers (MER) mission is the discovery at Meridiani Planum that the surface hematite signature observed from orbit is attributable largely to a surface enrichment of hematite-rich spherules, thought to be concretions, that have weathered out of rocks similar to the underlying sulfate-rich rock formation [1]. A strong hematite signature has been observed by the Mini-TES [2] and by in-situ measurements of spherule-rich targets by the Mossbauer spectrometer (MB) [3] and the alpha-particle X-ray spectrometer (APXS) [4]. The Mini-TES derived spectrum of spherule-rich targets on the plains is consistent with nearly pure coarse-grained hematite, with perhaps as little as 5-10 areal % of other components [2]. The occurrence and abundance of the spherules as the bearer of the widespread hematite signature observed by MGS TES over much of Meridiani Planum is significant for global remote sensing, and their occurrence as concretions in the outcrop lithology is significant for the diagenetic history and role of water in the formation of the sedimentary rock formation [5].

The oxidation state of cronstedtite can be determined by direct measurement of its Fe(2+) and Fe(3+) contents at nanometer scales. It is well known that some hydrated IDPs also contain cronstedtite and thus oxidation conditions of cronstedtite formation in IDPs can likewise be determined. To date, no ferric/ferrous ratios have been reported from cronstedtites in IDPs. In this work we report the first measurements of ferric iron contents of cronstedtite from one hydrated IDP to provide insights into the redox conditions that prevailed during formation of these grains. Furthermore, we compare our results to cronstedtites from CM chondrites which may also show whether a connection exists

This subgroup is characterized by enrichment in heavy oxygen [1], which could be the result of parent body metamorphism of normal CM chondrites or of processing in a nebular reservoir enriched in O-18 [2,3]. Here we report on mineralogical differences between a new normal CM chondrite, Dho 955, and two metamorphosed CM chondrites (MCM chondrites), Dho 225 and Dho 735, recently found in Oman. from Dho 995 and other CM chondrites (Fig. 2). Synchrotron IR microspectroscopy (SIRM) [6] gave no signatures of O-H bonds (in structural OH and/or bound H2O) at 2.7-3 m in Dho 225 and Dho 735 matrices. This suggests a low content of hydrated phases, phyllosilicates and tochilinite. In contrast, the O-H absorption bands were identified by SIRMs in the matrix spectra of Cold Bokkeveld, Murray and Mighei, and in tochilinite spectra of Murray, studied for comparison.

The groups are mineralogically very similar, consisting of olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase, metal and sulfide. Like the ordinary chondrites carbonaceous chondrites appear to constitute a metamorphic sequence [2-4]. However, they differ also from ordinary chondrites in several respects. Carbonaceous chondrites are isotopically different [5, 6], element ratios show small but significant differences [7, 8]; they contain refractory inclusions, [2, 9]. Unlike type 3 ordinary chondrites, carbonaceous chondrites contain often primary calcic feldspar [10], presumably associated with the refractory inclusions. Keck and Sears [3] found that the thermoluminescence (TL) sensitivity of the 110- 120 C peak increases by a factor of 100 with increasing the metamorphism grade, while the TL sensitivity of a second TL peak at 230 C is not metamorphism-dependent. They suggested that the first peak is related to feldspar formed by devitrification of chondrule glass, a situation analogous to that of type 3 ordinary chondrites [11, 12], while the 230 C peak is due to primary (i.e. nonmetamorphic) feldspar, perhaps associated with refractory inclusions.

The Steinheim Basin has a rather well preserved morphology with an approx. 1 km diameter central uplift which rises some 50 m above the present basin floor formed by post-impact lake sediments. The primary crater rim is eroded to some degree but is still visible as it stands some 90 - 100 m above the basin floor. The crater was formed in a sequence of horizontally layered limestones, marls, shales and sandstones of Jurassic and Triassic age. This contribution is a first attempt to apply the most advanced methods of computer

Typically, they occur in clusters known as shield fields (SF) which are tens to hundreds of kilometers across. The recent studies of the stratigraphy of a large number of SFs have shown that these features appeared during a large portion of the observable geologic history of Venus and thus they provide the means to analyze the character of changes in the same style of volcanism as a function of time. A detailed stratigraphic analysis of SFs has revealed that approx. 80% of the population of these features either postdates emplacement of regional plains (plains with wrinkle ridges, pwr) or appears to be synchronous with them; approx. 8% of the population postdates regional plains. The analyzed sample of SFs comprises approx. 22% of the total population and the subpopulation of young fields (postdating regional plains) was small and specifics of their distribution and associations remained unclear to a large extent. In order to adequately describe the distribution, associations, and geological settings of the young SFs, we have analyzed the whole population of fields and compiled the subpopulation of SFs postdating emplacement and deformation of regional plains.

The preferential flattening of poleward-facing slopes might be explained by melting of near-surface ground ice which is expected only on poleward-facing slopes in middle latitudes during periods of high obliquity. This is consistent with the fact that recent Martian gullies associated with fluid flows are also frequently observed on poleward-facing slopes in middle latitudes, since gully formations might have played certain roles in the slope flattening processes. However, whether or not the near-surface melting of snow and/or ground ice happens at geologically recent times includes complicated problems; for example, it would also depend on the amount of trapped CO2 on the open reservoirs such as the regolith at high latitude and the south residual polar cap. In middle latitudes, tongue-shaped ridges (morphologically similar to terrestrial protalus ramparts or terminal moraines) are also dominantly observed at the base of poleward-facing walls of some impact craters. It is suggested that tongue-shaped ridges would have some relation with viscous flows of ice-rich deposits. In this study, we identify whether the preferential slope flattening of poleward-facing slopes had or have continued through , because it is generally considered that erosion rates on Mars would rapidly drop at the end of . We also discuss the formation of the

20050169825 Tokyo Univ., Japan Numerical Simulation of Chemical Reactions Within a Vapor Plume Induced by Cometary Impact Ishimaru, R.; Senshu, H.; Sugita, S.; Matsui, T.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 9; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169816; Original contains color illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Impacts have played an important role in the evolution of surface environment of planets, asteroids, and satellites. When the impact velocity is higher than about ten km/s, materials around the impact site and most of the impactor evaporate forming a vapor plume. Since the temperature and pressure in the vapor plume are extremely high, the plume expands and cools rapidly. Chemical equilibrium within the vapor plume is achieved when the temperature and pressure of the vapor plume remain high. As the vapor plume expands and cools, the rate of chemical reaction decreases and eventually all the chemical reaction cease. As a result, various thermal disequilibrium compositions are left as end products. Especially, in the case of cometary impact, a significant amount of hydrocarbons form since comets contain a large amount of C, H, O, and N. Although the mechanical aspects of a cometary impact has been well studied, the chemical aspects of a cometary impact is not extensively studied because of (i) the limitation of the size in experimental study and (ii) the limitation of computational capability. Fegley et al. estimated the HCN and CH2O production by shock heating of atmosphere by bolide impact assuming (i) the chemical reactions cease instantly when the expansion rate of heated gas parcel defeats chemical reaction rate and (ii) the final abundance of each species is calculated as equilibrium abundance at the pressure-temperature condition at the moment of chemical reaction cessation. This simple model works well only when an equilibrium concentration changes very weakly as a function of a temperature near a quench temperature. This model, however, may not be applied to chemistry within a vapor plume because equilibrium concentrations of some chemical species contained in the gas-phase chemistry within the vapor plume depends strongly on the pressure-temperature profile of a impact vapor plume. Thus, in this study, we develop a new numerical code to simulate a gas-phase reaction network within an impact vapor plume formed by a cometary impact.

This observation led to the suggestion that Be-B system in melilite may be useful for the chronology of high temperature events in the early solar system. To explain the above observation and evaluate the effectiveness of the two decay systems for the determination of high temperature chronology, we have determined the diffusion kinetics of the Be-B system in melilites and used these data, along with the diffusion data of Mg in anorthite to calculate the closure temperatures (TC) of the decay systems as function of peak temperature, grain size and cooling rate.

The current method for extracting cosmic dust impact tracks is a mature procedure involving sequential perforation of the aerogel with glass needles on computer controlled micromanipulators. This method is highly successful at removing well-defined aerogel fragments of reasonable optical clarity while causing minimal damage to the surrounding aerogel collector tile. Such a system will be adopted by the JSC Astromaterials Curation Facility in anticipation of Stardust s arrival in early 2006. In addition to Stardust, aerogel is a possible collector for future sample return missions and is used for capture of hypervelocity ejecta in high power laser experiments of interest to LLNL. Researchers will be eager to obtain Stardust samples for study as quickly as possible, and rapid extraction tools requiring little construction, training, or investment would be an attractive asset. To this end, we have experimented with micro-blades for the Stardust impact track extraction process. Our ultimate goal is a rapid extraction system in a clean electron beam environment, such as an SEM or dual-beam FIB, for in situ sample preparation, mounting and analysis.

This phenomenon was first observed by Cassini and then confirmed by numerous ground based observations in 19th and 20th centuries. With the advent of the space age observations of the seasonal ice cap were done by all orbiting spacecraft starting with 7. Viking Orbiters and more recently the Mars Global Surveyor (particularly Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) and Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES) instruments) have accumulated significant data on the retreat of the CO2 seasonal cap. During Mars year 2 of THEMIS operations at Mars, we planned an observational campaign in which the THEMIS instrument (onboard the Mars Odyssey spacecraft) repeatedly observed the north seasonal polar cap from midwinter to late spring. THEMIS allows simultaneous observations in both Thermal IR (12.57 m) and Visible wavelengths (0.65 m). One of the goals for this work is to initiate an interannual program for observations of the seasonal ice caps using the THEMIS instrument. The most efficient way to detect the edge between frost and bare ground is directly onboard of the spacecraft. Prior to onboard software design effort, we have developed two groundbased algorithms for automatically finding the edge of the seasonal polar cap in THEMIS IR data. The first algorithm relies on fully calibrated data and can be used for highly reliable groundbased analyses. The second method was specifically developed for processing raw, uncalibrated data in a highly efficient way. It has the potential to enable automatic, onboard detections of the seasonal cap retreat. We have experimentally confirmed that both methods produce similar results, and we have validated both methods against a model constructed from the MGS TES data from the same season.

Unlike similar specimens we have studied, NWA 2626 has cross-cutting glass-rich veinlets and pockets, probably produced by shock during ejection from Mars. Inside a thin weathering rind, the dark greenish specimen is composed of euhedral to subhedral olivine phenocrysts and preferentially-oriented, prismatic low-Ca pyroxene phenocrysts in a ground mass of zoned pigeonite (Fs(sub 26.4)Wo(sub 12.4) to Fs(sub 34.1)Wo(sub 12.4)), maskelynite (An(sub 66.0-71.0)Or(sub 0.4)), olivine (Fa(sub 43.6-47.3), Ti-chromite (Cr/(Cr+Al) = 0.72-0.79, 9.2- 19.8 wt.% TiO2), chromite (Cr/(Cr+Al) = 0.71-0.86, 0.7-2.0

335 wt.% TiO2), merrillite, ilmenite, ulvospinel and pyrrhotite. Olivine phenocrysts are zoned from Fa(sub 16.7) cores to Fa(sub 43.3) rims, and pyroxene phenocrysts have irregular cores of orthopyroxene (as magnesian as Fs(sub 17.9)Wo(sub 2.4), with approx. 0.03 wt.% TiO2 and approx. 0.4 wt.% Al2O3) mantled by pigeonite (Fs(sub 25.4)Wo(sub 4.4) to Fs(sub 37.0)Wo(sub 12.7))) with minor subcalcic augite (Fs(sub 21.7-24.0)Wo(sub 30.8-31.1)). Although textures and mineral compositions are similar to those in olivine-orthopyroxene-phyric shergottites NWA 1195 and NWA 2046, in our judgement none of these specimens are terrestrially paired. Olivine phenocrysts in NWA 2626 have less magnesian cores than those in NWA 2046, yet both olivine and pyroxene are zoned to less ferroan rim and groundmass compositions than the corresponding phases in NWA 2046. NWA 1195 is a complete stone from a different, well-documented location near Safsaf, Morocco. Merrillite habits also are distinctive, with the more abundant merrillite in NWA 2626 and NWA 1195 appearing to partially replace groundmass plagioclase. Another unusual feature of NWA 2626 is the presence of enigmatic moats, perhaps of Martian origin. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Modeling of these effects promises better understanding of Martian cratering records. We present here the new ANEOS-based multiphase equation of state for water/ice constructed for usage in hydrocodes and first numerical experiments on permafrost shock melting. Preliminary results show that due to multiple shock compression of ice inclusions in rocks the entropy jump in shocked ice is smaller than in pure ice for the same shock pressure. Hence previous estimates of ice melting during impact cratering on Mars should be re-evaluated. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Simultaneous, in situ monitoring of the carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, methane, water, and hydrogen concentrations in the endothermic gas of a heat-treating furnace were demonstrated under a Space Act Agreement between the NASA Lewis Research Center, the Heat Treating Network, and Akron Steel Treating Company. This endothermic gas, or ‘endogas,’ is produced in a catalytic process, where natural gas is ‘cracked’ in the presence of air. Variations in the composition of the natural gas supplied lead to variations in the composition of the endothermic gas. These variations could lead to an

336 unacceptable quality of steel products that are hardened through the carborization process that uses this gas. Conventional methods of monitoring the endogas include measuring the dew point of the gas and the oxygen concentration. From these data, the carbon monoxide content of the gas can be calculated. This carbon monoxide concentration creates the carbon potential needed for carburization. Several weak links are present in this approach. The oxygen monitor deteriorates over time, and the measurement might be inaccurate by 50 percent. Also, the chemistry equations, which are based on several assumptions, such as secondary species concentrations, provide only an approximate estimate of the carbon monoxide concentration. To address these weaknesses, we investigated a new method based on ordinary Raman spectroscopy, in which the carbon monoxide concentration is measured directly and in situ. This method measures the laser light scattered from the molecules. Each species interacts with the light and scatters the light at a different frequency. Spectral monitoring of the scattered light intensity at each molecular frequency of interest provides the species concentrations. One advantage over the conventional method is that several species can be monitored simultaneously. A second advantage is that the measurement is direct; there is no need to make assumptions, to filter the gas, or to calibrate the instrument. An instrument was designed consisting of a laser and a detection system within an enclosure, connected to an optical probe by fibers. For determining carbon monoxide concentration, the probe is mounted on the endothermic gas line, close to the generator. Optical fibers with a length of 150 ft have been used to transmit laser light from the instrument to the probe. There, the light is focused into the gas, and the scattered light is collected and transmitted back to the instrument where it is analyzed with a photomultiplier and lock-in amplifier. Laboratory tests have shown that with the current system the concentration of carbon monoxide, water, nitrogen, oxygen, and hydrogen in the air can be monitored with an accuracy of 1 percent. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the air can be monitored with an accuracy of 0.5 percent, and the concentration of methane with an accuracy of 0.2 percent. This instrument was taken to the Akron Steel Treating Plant, where field tests are in progress to verify the system capabilities. Planned developments are improving the accuracy, monitoring multiple locations, and reducing instrument size and cost. Author Furnaces; Heat Treatment; Rocket Engines; Combustion Physics

20050169931 NASA Lewis Research Center, Cleveland, OH, USA Effects of Control Mode and R-Ratio on the Fatigue Behavior of a Metal Matrix Composite [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; No Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy Composite Because of their high specific stiffness and strength at elevated temperatures, continuously reinforced metal matrix composites (MMC’s) are under consideration for a future generation of aeropropulsion systems. Since components in aeropropulsion systems experience substantial cyclic thermal and mechanical loads, the fatigue behavior of MMC’s is of great interest. Almost without exception, previous investigations of the fatigue behavior of MMC’s have been conducted in a tension-tension, load-controlled mode. This has been due to the fact that available material is typically less than 2.5-mm thick and, therefore, unable to withstand high compressive loads without buckling. Since one possible use of MMC’s is in aircraft skins, this type of testing mode may be appropriate. However, unlike aircraft skins, most engine components are thick. In addition, the transient thermal gradients experienced in an aircraft engine will impose tension-compression loading on engine components, requiring designers to understand how the MMC will behave under fully reversed loading conditions. The increased thickness of the MMC may also affect the fatigue life. Traditionally, low-cycle fatigue (LCF) tests on MMC’s have been performed in load control. For monolithic alloys, low-cycle fatigue tests are more typically performed in strain control. Two reasons justify this choice: (1) the critical volume from which cracks initiate and grow is generally small and elastically constrained by the larger surrounding volume of material, and (2) load-controlled, low-cycle fatigue tests of monolithics invariably lead to unconstrained ratcheting and localized necking--an undesired material response because the failure mechanism is far more severe than, and unrelated to, the fatigue mechanism being studied. It is unknown if this is the proper approach to composite testing. However, there is a lack of strain-controlled data on which to base any decisions. Consequently, this study addresses the isothermal, LCF behavior of a [0]_32 MMC tested under strain- and load-controlled conditions for both zero-tension and tension-compression loading conditions. These tests were run at 427 C on thick specimens of SiC-reinforced Ti-15-3. For the fully-reversed tests, no difference was observed in the lives between the load- and strain-controlled tests. However, for the zero-tension tests, the strain-controlled tests had longer lives by a factor of 3 in comparison to the load-controlled tests. This was due to the fact that under strain-control the specimens cyclically softened, reducing the cracking potential. In contrast, the load-controlled tests ratcheted toward larger tensile strains leading to an eventual overload of the fibers. Fatigue tests revealed that specimens tested under fully-reversed conditions had lives approximately an order of magnitude longer than for those specimens tested under zero tension. When examined on a strain-range basis, the fully reversed specimens had similar, but still shorter lives than those of the unreinforced matrix material. However, the composite had a strain limitation at short lives because of the limited strain capacity of the brittle ceramic fiber. The composite also suffered at very high lives because of the lack of an apparent fatigue limit in comparison

337 to the unreinforced matrix. The value of adding fibers to the matrix is apparent when the fatigue lives are plotted as a function of stress range. Here, the composite is far superior to the unreinforced matrix because of the additional load-carrying capacity of the fibers.

However, significant uncertainty still exists as to the duration of liquid water on the surface of Mars. Mineral dissolution rates may provide information on maximum durations of water on Mars. However, field and laboratory weathering rates on earth differ significantly, by up to 5 orders of magnitude. Few field weathering rates for basalt and olivine have been published. The climate history of Mars is not well-constrained; however, field weathering rates of minerals in Mars-analog environments may provide information on the duration of water on Mars. Spitsbergen (Norway) provides three examples of basalts weathering in a Mars-analog environment: outcrops of the Quaternary volcano, Sverrefjell, plateau basalt lavas emplaced approximately 10 million years ago, and a basalt dike. Sverrefjell has been well documented as a Mars analog containing carbonate globules that are very similar to those found in ALH84001. These three basalts with different chemistries will allow us to study basalt weathering in a cold, dry climate. Basalt samples were collected from each of the three locations as part of AMASE, the Arctic Mars Analog Svalbard Expedition in August of 2004. They were then observed by optical microscopy, backscattered electron microscopy, and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy.

20050169950 Geological Survey of Canada, Ottawa, Ontario, Canada On the Need for an Atlas of Chondrule Textures Herd, R. K.; Hunt, P. A.; Venance, K.

A recent publication o n zircon textures in terrestrial rocks provides a useful analogy: The paper presents a selection of both the most typical, but also of the less common, features seen in zircon, categorized according to the different geological processes responsible for their formation. A similar reference on the features seen in chondrules, perhaps categorized by the different extraterrestrial processes (thought to be) responsible for their formation, is necessary. We propose a community effort among those researchers interested in sharing such information. The advent of digital imaging techniques means that digital photomicrographs and scanning-electron microscope images derived from systematic textural studies can be readily shared and discussed. We are proposing to do this through a dedicated web site and list. Derived from text Chondrule; Meteoritic Composition; Textures; Petrology

A number of previous studies have tried to determine the existence and boundaries of basaltic units within the area we examined. We have used the higher resolution Clementine ultraviolet/visible data (down to 200m/pixel) to try and determine the boundaries of units within the region. Additionally we have used Clementine FeO and TiO2 wt% data to see if they can suggest variations in the thickness of basalts in the region.

With the exception of those formed during the most recent Rio Cuarto event (2-6 ka), unequivocal shock indicators (e.g., planar deformation features) in these glasses have not been reported. Instead their ages, extents, abundances, and geologic settings together with excellent petrographic evidence of extremely high transient temperatures (e.g., baddeleyite and ) and rapid quenching support an impact origin. Typical shock indicators in quartz and feldspars might be exceedingly rare in pampean glasses due to the highlyporous nature of the presumed target materials. Loessoid targets should facilitate both poor shock coupling and high post-shock temperatures; consequently, many of the few grains that do develop shock signatures may be thermally altered or melted thereafter. Therefore, we have endeavored to identify shock indicators in minerals less susceptible to the complications of impedance or digestion. Ilmenite provides a good candidate because it is common in loessoid sediments, has a very high melting temperature, and is sensitive to shock pressures less than 10 GPa. Initial results are presented here. Derived from text Breccia; Lithology; Shock Waves; Petrography; Vapors; Composition (Property); Argentina

340 Data collected by Viking, Pathfinder, and the Mars Exploration Rovers and by orbiters (e.g., Odyssey) provide multiple lines of evidence for the historical and present-day existence of water on Mars. For example, Mars Odyssey detected up to approx.10 wt% equivalent H2O in equatorial regions of Mars where water ice is not stable [1]. It has been theorized that sulfate minerals, including hydrated ferric sulfates, may be part of the inventory of hydrous phases that account for water on the martian surface [2, 3, 4]. Several Fe-bearing minerals, such as jarosite and goethite, as well as Mg and Ca sulfates have already been identified in the martian regolith [5, 6, 7]. Knowledge of the martian regolith mineralogy is essential to understanding Mars hydro-geologic history, and hydrous minerals may serve as useful records of past aqueous alteration events. Indeed, important inferences about past conditions have been made from the presence of jarosite and goethite [5, 6], and it has been determined that jarosite is thermodynamically stable under assumed martian surface conditions [8]. Laboratory data measured under simulated martian surface conditions are crucial to provide constraints on hydrous mineral stability [9], and guided by current chemistry data we selected hydrated ferric sulfates for study (in lieu of ferrous sulfate minerals).

Either way, their presence has profound implications for the formation of the Valles Marineris itself: A volcanic origin might support a formation of the Valles Marineris as a tectonic (rift-like) feature, while a sedimentary origin might support a formation by collapse processes.

20050169962 Melbourne Univ., Parkville, Australia Origin of the Northern Lowlands of Mars in a Single String-of-Pearls Impact Hoffman, ick; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains color illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document It has long been recognized that the Northern Lowlands of Mars were formed very early in the history of the observed planetary surface and may well be the earliest geologic event that is still visible today. Models of the formation process have included early asymmetric convection, whether in a magma ocean or by slower plate-style tectonics. Alternatively, one or

341 more giant basin-forming impacts may have formed the crustal dichotomy by excavation of originally uniform crust. To date, it has been deemed improbable that an impact origin can explain the detailed shape of the crustal dichotomy, since it is far from circular and would require multiple impacts to generate the detailed shape of the boundary. Statistically, random impacts are highly unlikely to have only struck one hemisphere of Mars. One impact model has not received attention to date, yet holds the key to simultaneous explaining the coincidental location of multiple impacts. A ‘String-of-Pearls’ impactor, similar to comet Shoemaker-Levy 9, impacting about 40 degrees from the spin axis of Paleo-Mars would carve a series of overlapping impact basins, distributed around a small circle. These overlapping impact basins would define a composite basin with a scalloped and irregular margin, essentially identical to the observed crustal dichotomy on Mars.

Fremdlinge, or so-called opaque assemblages, were previously found in Ca-Al-rich inclusions (CAIs) of CV chondrites. The mineralogy of Fremdlinge is very complex, containing phases apparently formed at high and low temperatures and under highly reducing and oxidizing conditions. Identified phases include Fe, Ni metals, sulfides, Fe-oxides, phosphates, silicates and Pt-metal grains. Fremdlinge were thought to be exotic objects incorporated into the host CAIs and thus represented the oldest solids in the solar system. However, because of their complex mineral assemblages, their origin

342 is not as readily explained. Other authors have argued for a local origin of these objects. Ningqiang is an anomalous carbonaceous chondrite with many similarities close to CV3 meteorites. In this work, numerous relatively large Fremdlinge are observed in chondrules as well as in matrix of Ningqiang. We carried out a petrographic study of these objects in order to gain additional insights into their formation.

Thus, Mars is currently in a period of anomalously low obliquity (approx.23deg), and typical obliquity values in the history of Mars (and thus climate zones and the distribution of surface and near-surface water ice [2]) are likely to be much different than now. Indeed, synthesis of recent observational data suggest that Mars underwent an ice age in the last few million years from which it is currently emerging, during which time obliquity exceeded 30deg and polar ice was mobilized and transported equatorward and deposited down to latitudes of approx.30deg in both hemispheres [3]. What happens when obliquity exceeds 30deg for extended periods of time? Where is water deposited, in what volumes, and how is it manifested in terms of geological processes? Geological evidence suggests that extensive water ice was deposited at mid-latitudes in the past associated with lineated valley fill and lobate debris aprons [4,5] and the case has been presented for extensive past tropical mountain glaciation [6,7]. Recent general circulation model analyses provide evidence for significant mobilization of polar ice during periods of high obliquity and redeposition equatorward in the form of low to mid-latitude ice deposits [8-11].

20050169967 NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA, USA The Planetesimal Bow Shock Model for Chondrule Formation: More Detailed Simulations in the Near Vicinity of the Planetesimal Hood, Lon L.; Ciesla, Fred J.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains black and white illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Gas dynamic shock waves in a low temperature nebula have been considered to be a leading candidate mechanism for providing the repetitive, short-duration heating events that are believed to have been responsible for the formation of chondrules in chondrites. It has been found, for example, that shocks with Mach numbers greater than 4 or 5 would be capable of rapidly melting 0.1-1 mm sized silicate particles as required by meteoritic data. Near the nebula midplane where chondrite parent bodies are believed to have formed, possible energy sources for generating multiple shocks include mass concentrations in a gravitationally unstable nebula, tidal interactions of proto-Jupiter with the nebula, and bow waves upstream of planetesimals scattered gravitationally into eccentric orbits by proto- Jupiter. In a recent study, we have found that chondrule precursors that are melted following passage through a planetesimal bow shock would likely cool at rates that are too rapid to be consistent with meteoritic evidence. However, that study was limited to the bowshock exterior to about 1.5 planetesimal radii (measured perpendicular to the symmetry axis) to avoid complications interior to this distance where large pressure gradients and lateral flow occur as the gas flows around the planetesimal. In this paper, we reconsider the planetesimal bow shock model and report more detailed numerical simulations of chondrule precursor heating, cooling, and dynamical histories in the near vicinity of a representative planetesimal.

343 Estimates of the size distribution of main belt asteroids suggest that there is a population of approximately 10 billion objects in the meter to km range. These objects have, so far, escaped detection. Current Earth-based telescopes have, except for a few objects, not been able to detect the faint and distant sub-kilometer asteroids in the main belt. Long integration times cannot be used unless the object can be tracked - which is not possible for an unknown object. Small asteroids can be observed closeup from a spacecraft but, so far, missions to the asteroid belt have not had the ability to automatically detect previously unknown asteroids. Since small asteroids can only be observed from the spacecraft for a very limited time it is not possible to operate the spacecraft from the distant Earth - a fully autonomous mission is required. We have explored the possibilities to build such a fully autonomous spacecraft using existing technology and have named the mission proposal Bering. Small asteroids are of great interest for a number of reasons: 1) Small low-gravity asteroids probably have less regolith cover thus providing a clearer picture of their interior structure and type; 2) Due to the Yarkovsky effect small asteroids have shorter lifetimes and therefore probably younger, less space weathered surfaces; 3) Small asteroids bridge the gap between the known big asteroids and the NEAs, meteoroids and meteorites; 4) Mapping the orbital parameters of small object may allow us to associate streams of small fragments with their parent asteroids thus further constraining the link between meteorites and asteroids and provide constraints on the transfer mechanics of material from the main belt to the inner Solar System; 5) Due to their shorter lifetime smallest asteroids may be used to constrain the most recent collisional evolution of the asteroid belt; 6) Measuring the actual size distribution of asteroids in the main belt can be used to constrain models of the collisional evolution of main belt asteroids.

Their morphology indicates erosion by groundwater discharged to the surface through disruptions in a cryosphere. What remains to be established, however, is a suitable mechanism for supplying the OC s with the required volume of groundwater (about 10(exp 6) cubic kilometers), greater than can be stored in the regional aquifer. We suggest that low-latitude Hesperian ice-sheets recharged the Tharsis aquifer, providing sufficient groundwater for outflow channel formation. The ice sheets developed during periods of high planetary obliquity when net deposition of volatiles occurred at low latitudes. Regionally elevated crustal heat due to Tharsis magmatic processes allowed the ice sheets to melt at their bases, producing aquifer infiltration. We present advances in previous numerical models of outflow channel discharge that compare Tharsis recharge with South Polar recharge. We also present observational evidence supporting low-latitude paleo-ice sheets. Derived from text Hydrological Cycle; Mars Surface; Mathematical Models; Channel Flow

Further historical review and response to recent critiques are given. Mars Global Surveyor s Mars Orbital Camera (MGS/MOC), for the first time, allowed crater counts down to diameters (D) of approximately 10 m, extending the effective D range of Martian crater statistics by an order of magnitude or more. (The major previous review paper, in 1992, cited Martian crater statistics only down toD=afewkm.) The new data offer tremendous opportunities and at the same time significant problems in terms of dating Martian stratigraphic units. Derived from text Mars Craters; Mars Surface; Geochronology

Although the mechanism of Martian meteorite delivery destroys their original geographical context, it is theoretically possible for these samples to provide the missing context through matching the unique physical, geochemical and spectral properties of meteorites with potential parent volcanic units on Mars. An obvious additional requirement is that such regions must contain at least one crater whose size and apparent age provides a plausible mechanism for transfer of material to Earth.

These red spots include the Gruithuisen domes, the Mairan domes, Hansteen Alpha, the southern portion of Montes Riphaeus, Darney Chi and Tau, Helmet, and an area near the crater. It has been suggested that many of the red spots are extrusive, nonmare, volcanic features that could be composed of an evolved lithlogy enriched in thorium. In fact, Hawke et al. used morphological characteristics to show that Hansteen Alpha is a nonmare volcanic construct. However, because the apparent Th abundances (6 - 7 ppm) were lower than that expected for evolved rock types, Hawke et al. concluded that Hansteen Alpha was composed of an unknown rock type. Subsequent studies by Lawrence et al. used improved knowledge of the Th spatial distribution for small area features on the lunar surface to revisit the interpretation of Th abundances at the Hansteen Alpha red spot. As part of their study, Lawrence et al. used a forward modeling technique to show that the Th abundance at Hansteen Alpha is not 6 ppm, but is more likely closer to 25 ppm, a value consistent with evolved lithologies. This positive correlation between the morphology and composition of Hansteen Alpha provides support for the presence of evolved lithologies on the lunar surface. It is possible, however, that Hansteen Alpha represents an isolated occurrence of non-mare volcanism. That is why we have chosen to use the forward modeling technique of Lawrence et al. to investigate the Th abundances at other lunar red spots, starting with the Gruithuisen domes.

However, due to the difficulty of gamma-ray collimation, the spatial resolution of gamma-ray spectrometers is not comparable to X-ray, visible, UV, or IR cameras. Compton Telescopes cannot uniquely identify the arrival direction of a single incident gamma ray, and are only applicable for point-like sources. The spatial resolution of a conventional omnidirectional gamma-ray spectrometer is a function of the altitude. In order to survey small to medium sized geological structures, the improvement in spatial resolution of gamma-ray observation is desired. By introducing a new method of gamma-ray measurement, gamma-ray imaging camera is considered for planetary science.

Over more than a half-decade, a suite of instruments on multiple spacecraft have been mapping the surface of Mars, producing a variety of different global geochemical and geophysical datasets. However, individual chemical datasets, while revealing, need to be cross-correlated with other data, such as surface age, topography or crustal thickness, to fully describe the processes that shape the Martian surface and sub-surface over geologic time. In this study, we present our first results in attempting to correlate various global datasets. We also attempt to constrain the rate of Martian crustal growth and crustal recycling. Past studies have estimated the surface crustal recycling regime for Earth using calculations based on a combination of surface age versus area, Nd and Hf isotope compositions of sedimentary rocks and the geochemical evolution of sedimentary rocks. The degree of crustal recycling is crucial for determining the long-term evolution of a planetary crust/mantle system. Using existing surface geology data, a similar preliminary estimate can be made for the Martian surface. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

Prior to the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA) global topography for Mars, these radar data provided local elevation information, along with radar scattering information with global coverage. Two kinds of GSSR Mars delay-Doppler data exist: low 5 km x 150 km resolution and, more recently, high (5 to 10 km) spatial resolution. Radar data, and non-imaging delay-Doppler data in particular, requires significant data processing to extract elevation, reflectivity and roughness of the reflecting surface. Interpretation of these parameters, while limited by the complexities of electromagnetic scattering, provide information directly relevant to geophysical and geomorphic analyses of Mars. In this presentation we want to demonstrate how to compare GSSR delay-Doppler data to other Mars datasets, including some idiosyncracies of the radar data.

This technique was originally developed to analyze the broadband Viking IRTM channels and we have now applied it to the TES data. To do this, the TES spectra are convolved to the IRTM bandshapes and spatial resolutions, enabling use of the same processing techniques as were used in Tamppari et al.. This retrieval technique relies on using the temperature difference recorded in the 20 micron and 11 micron IRTM bands (or IRTM convolved TES bands) to map cold water ice clouds above the warmer Martian surface. Careful removal of surface contributions to the observed radiance is therefore necessary, and we have used both older Viking-derived basemaps of the surface emissivity and albedo, and new MGS derived basemaps in order the explore any possible differences on cloud retrieval due to differences in surface contribution removal. These results will be presented in our poster. Our previous work has concentrated primarily on comparing MGS TES to Viking data; that work saw that large-scale cloud features, such as the aphelion cloud belt, are quite repeatable from year to year, though small scale behavior shows some variation. Comparison of Viking and MGS era cloud maps will be presented in our poster. In the current stage of our study, we have concentrated our efforts on close analysis of water ice cloud behavior in the northern summer of the three MGS

However, specific examples of shock-induced transformations previously have not been reported. Here we report the identification of diaplectic glass, planar deformation features (PDFs), and other planar lamellae in plagioclase and alkali feldspar grains, entrained in the CdM glasses, that only have been observed in association with hypervelocity collisions and nuclear explosions.

This simple hypothesis has been complicated with each successive improvement in imaging data. Mariner 9 and Viking images revealed the importance of groundwater sapping morphology, typified by abrupt, alcove-like terminations, small numbers of tributaries, and poor interfluve dissection. High resolution MGS MOC data revealed a more complex picture of groundwater processes, including evidence of groundwater erosion downstream of head reaches, in addition to typical headward erosion. However, MOC images also showed denser networks suggestive of surface runoff. Martian valley networks may thus be separated into two broad groups: dense networks influenced by surface runoff and sparse networks influenced predominantly by groundwater processes. We propose that the two groups mark a temporal shift in fluvial erosion processes spanning the late Noachian and Hesperian. The details of this hypothesis may be described in relation to a warm or cold early climate as follows. Derived from text Ground Water; Mars Surface; Valleys; Planetary Evolution; Drainage

Crustal plateaus, approx. 1500-2500 km diameter quasi-circular topographic plateaus that rise approx. 4 to 0.5 km above the surrounding terrain host distinctive deformation fabrics. Scientists generally agree that thickened crust supports crustal plateaus, as evidenced by small gravity anomalies, low gravity to topography ratios, shallow apparent depths of compensation, and consistent admittance spectra. Debate centers on crust thickening mechanism. The downwelling hypothesis involves thickening by subsolidus flow and horizontal lithospheric accretion associated with cold mantle downwelling, whereas the plume hypothesis accommodates thickening via magmatic under-plating and vertical accretion due to interaction of ancient thin lithosphere with a large thermal mantle plume. Examination of surface geologic relations within four crustal plateau areas leads to new observations, and refined geologic surface histories presented in a companion abstract. The resulting surface history interpreted from each plateau surface is difficult to address within the context of either the downwelling or plume hypothesis of plateau formation. In this contribution a third hypothesis for crustal plateau is put forth, plateau formation involving crystallization of a huge lava pond. In this contribution the emerge alternate hypothesis of crustal plateau formation is discussed and explored, including possible lava pond formation resulting from massive melting of the mantle as a result of bolide impact with ancient thin Venus lithosphere. Impact models have recently also been proposed for other large igneous provinces including Great Ontong Java Plateau on Earth and the Tharis region of Mars.

A protracted, sub-surface cooling history at oxidizing conditions has been proposed for the formation of the , based on the nature of chemical disequilibrium between phenocryst phases and compositions of coexisting Fe-Ti oxides. The recently discovered groundmass-rich Nakhlite MIL-03346 provides a new opportunity to assess crystallization conditions of the mesostasis. Cooling rate and oxygen fugacity was varied in a series of

Investigations of cryptomaria can provide information that is critical to understanding the evolution of the Moon. At present, the time of the onset of mare volcanism is not accurately known. Since cryptomaria represent the earliest mare basalts, determination of their ages will provide information concerning the initiation of extrusive mare volcanism. Cryptomaria were formed by magmas generated by very early partial melting of the lunar mantle. Chemical data for cryptomaria provide evidence concerning the composition of these early partial melts. We have used FeO, TiO2, and optical maturity maps produced from Clementine UV-VIS images, Lunar Prospector orbital chemistry data, Earth-based near-IR reflectance spectra, and a variety of spacecraft imagery to identify cryptomare deposits and to investigate the ages and compositions of the buried mare basalts.

These technologies will aid NASA in addressing the requirements flowing from the Vision for Space Exploration articulated in January 2004 as well as New Millennium Science and Technology. Establishing and resupplying a long term lunar presence will require automated landing precision not demonstrated to date. Precision

349 landing (CEP less than 10 m) will allow the targeting of scientifically interesting locations heretofore off-limits due to vehicle safety and mission success concerns. In the DOD world, precision guidance and the associated enabling technologies are used routinely and reliably. Hence, it is timely to generate a point design based on these mature technologies for a precise planetary lander useful for lunar exploration. In this design science instruments amount to 10 kg, 16% of the lander vehicle mass. This compares favorably with 7% for Mars Pathfinder and less than 15% for Surveyor.

Numerous models have been proposed which invoke various physical processes as well as various agents of erosion to explain the origin of the Martian gullies. Hypotheses to explain the formation of the gullies invoke shallow liquid water aquifers, deep liquid water aquifers, melting ground ice, snowmelt, dry landslides, and carbon dioxide aquifers. We test the validity of such gully formation mechanisms by analyzing data from the Mars Global Surveyor and Mars Odyssey spacecrafts to uncover trends in the dimensional and physical properties of the gullies and their surrounding terrain. A similar study has previously been completed for gullies located in the southern hemisphere of Mars. The work presented here focuses exclusively on gullies in the northern hemisphere based on the identification of 136 Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) images containing clear evidence of gully landforms, distributed in the northern mid and high latitudes. These sites have been analyzed in combination with Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter (MOLA), Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES), and Gamma Ray Spectrometer (GRS) data to provide quantitative measurements of numerous gully characteristics. Parameters measured include apparent source depth and distribution, vertical and horizontal dimensions, slopes, compass orientations, near-surface ice content, and factors controlling present-day climatic conditions.

The young geologic age of these gullies is often thought to be a paradox because liquid water is unstable at the Martian surface. Current temperatures and pressures are generally below the triple point of water (273 K, 6.1 mbar) so that liquid water will spontaneously boil and/or freeze. We therefore examine the flow of water on Mars to determine what conditions are consistent with the observed features of the gullies.

From dark, battered Phoebe orbiting at 200 R(sub S) to black-and-white Iapetus, the wispy streaks of Dione, heavily cratered Tethys and Mimas, to potentially geologically active Enceladus, the extent of geological phenomena exhibited by these bodies is tremendous. Phoebe, Iapetus

350 and Hyperion all orbit outside Saturn s magnetosphere, while Mimas, Enceladus, Dione Tethys and Rhea all orbit within the magnetosphere. Furthermore, Mimas, Enceladus, Tethys and Dione all orbit within the E-ring so the extent of exogenic effects on these icy satellites is wide-ranging. After 9 months in orbit around Saturn, we present UV results so far from Phoebe, Tethys, Dione, Iapetus, Mimas, Enceladus and Rhea. We expect that the UV signatures of these icy satellites are strongly influenced not only by their composition, but by external effects and magnetospheric environments.

The leading hemisphere is very dark and reddish in color at visible-near-IR wavelengths. In contrast, the trailing hemisphere is relatively bright and its near-IR spectrum is dominated by water ice. The severe hemispherical brightness dichotomy has been explained by both endogenic and exogenic models. The primary endogenic model involves eruption of dark material onto the leading hemisphere from the interior of Iapetus. Exogenic models include exposure of dark underlying material by micrometeorite bombardment, contamination of Iapetus leading hemisphere by Titan tholin material, and the coating of the leading hemisphere by Phoebe dust. It has been shown that the dark material on Iapetus leading hemisphere is redder in color at visible wavelengths than Phoebe, which is spectrally gray at visible wavelengths. An additional exogenic model involves the coating of both Iapetus leading hemisphere and Hyperion with material from small retrograde satellites, which are reddish in color at visible wavelengths. We present the first FUV spectra of Iapetus and Phoebe to investigate whether the UV wavelength range can contribute to solving the puzzle of Iapetus.

As direct samples of extreme astrophysical environments, analysis of these grains is the only way to study, within the laboratory, nucleosynthetic processes occurring in stars. The main types of grains discovered are silicon carbide, diamond, graphite, silicon nitride and corundum. The study of their extreme isotopic compositions (isotope ratios of carbon, oxygen, magnesium and silicon may vary by up to 4 orders of magnitude compared with terrestrial materials) is currently being used to directly model nucleosynthetic processes in AGB stars, novae and supernovae. The grains may also be structured on a sub-micron scale and retain evidence of their passage through interstellar space. In a 1 micron diameter grain there are as few as several thousand atoms of each of the heavy elements (especially rare earth elements and actinides) requiring an average detection efficiency for these low abundance elements of at least 1% and preferably greater than 10%. An instrument capable of analyzing element and isotope ratios in these grains must therefore be able to achieve a spatial resolution of at least 100nm and be able to extract and detect atoms from the grain with very high efficiency.

The MI is

351 a fixed-focus camera mounted on an extendable arm, the Instrument Deployment Device (IDD). The MI acquires images at a spatial resolution of 31 microns/pixel over a broad spectral range (400 - 700 nm). The MI uses the same electronics design as the other MER cameras but its optics yield a field of view of 32 32 mm across a 1024 1024 pixel CCD image. The MI acquires images using only solar or skylight illumination of the target surface. The MI science objectives, instrument design and calibration, operation, and data processing were described by Herkenhoff et al. Initial results of the MI experiment on both MER rovers (Spirit and Opportunity) have been published previously. Highlights of these and more recent results are described.

Their spectra correspond to the Type A (normal) and Type B (anomalous) patterns that turn up almost at random in spectra of terrestrial high-Ca pyroxenes (clinopyroxenes). Fe ions are responsible for the pertinent absorption bands, and an additional Fe sensitive method, Mossbauer spectroscopy, shows a similar dichotomy of results, with an anomalously intense ferric-ion signature appearing for most NIR Type B samples. In a few samples, detailed microscopic analysis suggests that minute amounts of iron-rich minor phases may be responsible. NIR spectroscopy is a principal tool in the study of igneous rock whether remote or in the laboratory, so planetary science would benefit from knowledge of the origin and probable extent of the anomaly. This report presents Mossbauer data for an additional set of NIR-characterized pyroxenes in the hope of contributing to clarification.

We will report on results from Enceladus, Tethys and Dione, orbiting in the Saturn system at distances of 3.95, 4.88 and 6.26 Saturn radii, respectively. Icy satellite science objectives of the UVIS include investigations of surface age and evolution, surface composition and chemistry, and tenuous exospheres. We address these objectives by producing albedo maps, and reflection and emission spectra, and observing stellar occultations. UVIS has four channels: EUV: Extreme Ultraviolet (55 nm to 110 nm), FUV: Far Ultraviolet (110 to 190 nm), HSP: High Speed Photometer, and HDAC: Hydrogen-Deuterium Absorption Cell. The EUV and FUV spectrographs image onto a 2-dimensional

The ISS Narrow Angle Camera (NAC) obtained its first closeup multi-color images of Tethys at a Voyager-comparable spatial resolution of 1.5 km/pixel. The imaging sequence provided 23 NAC images covering 10 NAC color-filter bandpasses (ranging from 338nm to 930nm wavelengths), as well as a Wide Angle Camera (WAC), 3-color (BGR) image set. The images show whole-disk views of Tethys’ trailing hemisphere viewed at a phase angle of 50 degrees and with a sub-spacecraft point of (22 deg. N, 270 deg. W). At the spatial resolution of our NAC images, Tethys’ 1060 km diameter presents a disk-size of about 350 pixels. Among the images returned are nine frames obtained through NAC polarization-filters at three different spectral bandpasses (UV3: 341nm, GRN: 569nm, and MT2: 727 nm, respectively). In the present study, we use these polarization images to search for possible variations in the microscopic texture of regolith on Tethys.

These asteroids have historically been the subject of interest within the asteroid community for several reasons. Continuing discussions about the nature of the S-asteroids (ordinary chondrite-like or thermally-evolved) and the putative space weathering effect on S-asteroids serve as examples of issues currently unresolved within the community [2,3]. Despite this general interest, detailed mineralogical investigations of individual S-asteroids has been relatively rare. A few workers have studied individual, or small groups of, S-asteroids [4,5,6,7]. Gaffey et al. [2] published their S-asteroid survey in 1993 that characterized 39 of the 144 then-classified S-asteroids. Despite the work already accomplished, the need

353 exists to rigorously characterize the remaining S-asteroid population to gain a better understanding of these asteroids origin, nature, and physical characteristics. Derived from text Asteroids; Chondrites; Space Weathering; Mineralogy

Silicates are the major constituent of O-rich dust around young stars and in outflows from evolved red giant stars. Although the first presolar minerals, namely diamond and SiC, were identified already in 1987 in carbonaceous meteorites, presolar silicates were discovered only recently, first in IDPs and later also in primitive meteorites. The identification of presolar silicates was based on the application of improved measurement techniques and the invention of the NanoSIMS ion microprobe with its superior lateral resolution (less than 100 nm) and capability for the search of in-situ presolar dust in slices of IDPs and meteorites has played a key role in this respect. In a previous study we reported the discovery of abundant in-situ presolar silicate and spinel grains in the matrix of the Acfer 094 meteorite. The finding of these grains was based on O-isotope mapping of several matrix areas with the NanoSIMS ion microprobe at MPI for Chemistry. In an attempt to further characterize presolar minerals in IDPs and meteorites we report here results from an O- and S-isotope imaging survey of the Acfer 094 meteorite and of two IDPs.

They are generally considered unique to Venus and may offer insights into the differences in lithospheric structure or mantle convective pattern between Venus and Earth. 68% of all coronae are associated with chasmata or fracture belts. The remaining 32% are located at volcanic rises or in the plains. Chasmata are linear to arcuate troughs, with trough parallel fractures and faults which extend for 1000 s of kilometers. Estimates of the elastic thickness of the lithosphere (T(sub e)) have been calculated in a number of gravity/topography studies of Venus and for coronae specifically. None of these studies, however, have explored the dependence of T(sub e) on the tectonic history of the region, as implied from the interpretation of relative timing relationships between coronae and surrounding features. We examine the relationship between the local T(sub e) and the relative ages of coronae and chasmata with the aim of further constraining the origin and evolution of coronae and chasmata systems.

Because of its many advantages compared to previously deployed and current in-use methods of elemental analysis (e.g. x-ray fluorescence, APXS), LIBS has potential for application to other planetary bodies. Of particular interest are the Moon and asteroids having very low ambient gas pressures at the surface. Because the laser plasma used by LIBS is sensitive to the surrounding atmosphere, it is important to determine analysis capabilities under these conditions. The results of a study of LIBS capabilities at low pressure is presented here for both in-situ and stand-off analysis.

There are signs of recent liquid water on Mars like the gullies formed probably during high obliquity and dark slope streaks which could be formed by gravitational mass movements or water seepage. We discovered and analysed a possible third group of phenomena presumably produced by liquid water on the surface, called DDS-seepage. These are originated at dark dune spots (DDS). (Dark dune spots appear in the defrosting surface in late winter early spring in the polar regions of Mars). Most of the DDS-seepages can be found at the steep slopes of the dark dunes in craters and the intercrater areas and we could study not only great number of these seepages but also could observe their changes from one Martian year to the other.

The ages of these deposits are typically much younger than the adjacent plateau terrain or its breakup and the formation of the valleys themselves (e.g., 9, 14). The margins of the debris aprons consist of rounded and convex upward topography, and at Viking resolution the debris aprons and the valley fill can appear smooth and relatively homogeneous or, in contrast, can be characterized by closely spaced parallel ridges and grooves a few to several tens of meters high. These sets of parallel ridges have been interpreted to have formed both parallel and normal to valley and mesa walls. Some workers (e.g., 2) argue that the lineations form mostly normal to flow due to converging flow from debris aprons on opposite sides of valleys or mesas, while others (e.g., 4) argue that bending of ridges and grooves entering valleys from a side tributary supports flow in the direction parallel to the valley. Recent analysis shows variable downslope gradients suggesting that lateral flow was minimal (e.g., 11). All agree that the materials represent some sort of viscous flow processes, but opinions differ on the details of the mechanism; most authors call on processes of gravity-driven debris flow, assisted by ice or water in the interstices derived from either groundwater or diffusive exchange with the atmosphere (e.g., see 7, 10, 13-14). Some liken the process to rock-glacial flow (e.g., 2, 4) with the source of the lubricating agent being ice from atmospheric frost deposition and diffusion (2) or mobilized interstitial ground ice (4).

In order to give an experimental description of the electric behavior of the Martian surface we have undertaken laboratory electromagnetic characterization in the frequency range 1 MHz to 3 GHz of the total set of minerals identified by TES. Volcanic rocks with a well defined mineralogy and petrology from potential terrestrial analogues sites have also been included in the study. Our primary objective is to quantify the range of electrical losses that may be encountered by the various Radar sounding and imaging experiments dedicated to map the physical properties of the Martian surface and subsurface searching mainly for underground water. The electromagnetic properties of these Mars-like materials are presented as a function of various geophysical parameters, such as porosity, bulk density and temperature.

This started mainly after the MOC imagery showed features like the gullies and morphological features which can be associated with glacial activity. Now the motion was discussed that at least small amounts of water or ice had been present in the recent past on Mars. Still, the common notion was that Mars today is a dry place. With the excellent dataset of the Gamma and Neutron spectrometer (GRS and HEND) on board of Mars Odyssey this view had to be corrected. The instrument

The results are important for a number of reasons: (1) Calculation of accurate chemical bulk compositions of chondrules and CAIs. Such data are relatively rare, but of particular interest for a variety of important questions, such as the chondrule - matrix complementarity described by [2]. A precise knowledge of chondrules compositions is crucial for chondrule forming mechanisms. Another question related to bulk chondrule compositions is the identification of chondrule precursor components and their origin [3].

[1] proposed that degassing of subsurface volatiles during crater formation produced central pits. Croft [2] argued instead that central pits might form during the impact of volatile-rich comets. Although central pits are seen in impact craters on icy moons such as Ganymede, they do show some significant differences from their martian counterparts: (a) only floor pits are seen on Ganymede, and (b) central pits begin to occur at crater diameters where the peak ring interior morphology begins to appear in terrestrial planet craters [3]. A study of craters containing central pits was conducted by Barlow and Bradley [4] using Viking imagery. They found that 28% of craters displaying an interior morphology on Mars contain central pits. Diameters of craters containing central pits ranged from 16 to 64 km. Barlow and Bradley noted that summit pit craters tended to be smaller than craters containing floor pits. They also noted a correlation of central pit craters with the proposed rings of large impact basins. They argued that basin ring formation fractured the martian crust and allowed subsurface volatiles to concentrate in these locations. They favored the model that degassing of the substrate during crater

357 formation was responsible for central pit formation due to the preferential location of central pit craters along these basin rings. Derived from text Mars Craters; Planetary Crusts; Planetary Geology; Structural Basins; Cratering; Mars Surface

At low degrees of partial melting, a sulfur-rich liquid segregates by physical mechanisms including deformation-assisted porous flow. Experimental studies of the physical mechanisms by which Fe-S melts segregate from the silicate matrix of a molten H chondrite are part of a companion paper. Geochemical studies of these experimental products revealed that metallic liquids were in equilibrium with residual metal in the H chondrite matrix. This contribution explores the geochemical signatures produced by early stages of core formation. Particularly, low-degree partial melt segregation of Fe-S liquids leaves residual metal in the silicate matrix. Some achondrites appear to be residues of partial melting, e.g., ureilites, which are known to contain metal. The metal in these achondrites may show a distinct elemental signature. To quantify the effect of sulfur on siderophile element contents of residual metal we have developed a model based on recent parametrizations of equilibrium solid metal-liquid metal partitioning experiments.

Naturally, the chemical and mineralogical changes that accompany weathering of the Earth’s granodioritic upper crust have been studied in great detail to better understand processes controlling the composition of sedimentary rocks. Weathering of basaltic rocks has been studied as well, and there is a reasonable understanding of the bulk chemical and mineralogical changes that accompany alteration of such rocks under terrestrial conditions. In contrast, Martian soils and altered rocks, which undoubtedly reflect the end product of some combination of physical and/or chemical alteration, do not appear to have evolved in a manner consistent with alteration of basalts as we know it on Earth. Here we present new insights into weathering processes on Mars utilizing the results of alteration experiments performed at low pH on synthetic basalts of Martian composition.

Exemplified on Earth within both oceanic and continental settings (e.g., Hawaii, Snake River Plains), they provide analogs for similar systems on other planets, especially Mars. Topographic analysis of individual Quaternary mafic shields on the eastern Snake River Plains (ESRP) of Idaho (the type area for plains-style volcanism demonstrates similarity in size, volume, and shape of these shields, as well as the vent spacing in the volcanic fields, with those of the and regions of Mars. Geochemical and physical volcanologic studies of the ESRP show an emerging model of volcanic evolution that implies multiple small batches of magma derived from upper mantle sources. Various chemical trends are illustrated, exemplified by La vs. MgO, that argue for a system with variably evolved magma batches and possibly several magmatic sources. Petrologic modeling suggests that early magmas in the sequence form (layered?) sub-volcanic mafic intrusions that fractionate to evolved compositions. Later mafic magmas commingle with these earlier-derived intrusions, partially melt and assimilate late-stage fractionates, and erupt with chemically evolved, but isotopically un-evolved compositions.

They possess conspicuous morphological characteristics of meandering channels or valleys, which is decreasing of depth and width. Normal rilles are straight or gently curved and considered to be graben-type faults. Crater chains in sometimes form irregular fractures like a rille, but they are excluded from the definition of sinuous rille. Lunar sinuous rilles are occasionally found in the maria and mare-highland boundaries, and most of them are concentrated around the Mare Imbrium and in the Oceanus Procellarum. According to, lunar sinuous rilles have typical dimensions of 30 - 40 km length and of less than 1 km width. The origin of these features differs on each planet or satellite; hence, we investigated the origin of the lunar sinuous rille due to existence of information for consideration of the origin (e.g., chemical composition of rock and elevation of rim and floor of sinuous rille).

Here we examine Re-Os isotopic and trace elemental systematics of group IVB irons. Compared to most irons, the irons comprising this group are enriched in some of the most refractory siderophile elements, yet highly-depleted in most volatile siderophile elements. These characteristics have been attributed to processes such as high temperature condensation of precursor materials and oxidation in the parent body. Most recently it has been suggested that both processes may be involved in the chemical complexity of the group. Here, high precision isotopic and highly siderophile element (HSE) concentrations are used to further examine these possible origins, and the crystallization history of the group. In addition, we have begun to assess the possibility of relating certain ungrouped irons with major groups via multi-element, trace element modeling. In a companion abstract, the isotopic and trace element systematics of the ungrouped iron Tishomingo are compared with the IVB irons.

20050170027 California Univ., Los Angeles, CA, USA MET01210: Another Lunar Mare Meteorite (Regolith Breccia) with Extensive Pyroxene Exsolution, and Not Part of the YQ Launch Pair Huber, Heinz; Warren, Paul H.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains color and black and white illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document MET01210 has been classified as a lunar anorthositic breccia. Actually, it is a regolith breccia that contains more mare basalt than highland matter. The bulk Al2O3 content (microprobe fused-bead analysis in excellent agreement with analyses of the fusion crust) is 16.7 wt%, and the lithic and mineral clast components in thin section appear to be of mainly mare origin. From pyroxene mg vs. Ti/(Cr+Ti) zonation trends, the dominant mare component probably was a basalt (or diabase) with approx. 2.2 wt% TiO2. A highland component is definitely present, however. There are small aphanitic anorthositic impact melt clasts, and four of the five regolith spheroids identified to date are highly aluminous (24-35 wt% Al2O3). One of these, only 16 m in diameter, is of HASP composition, with 35 wt% Al2O3 and just 34 wt% SiO2 (Kempa and Papike looked for and did not find a relationship between spheroid size and frequency of HASP; our observations, most notably for lunaite QUE93069, consistently find HASP most abundant among the smallest highland spheroids and of course surface area/volume relationships should favor HASP development in relatively small objects.) The only mare or mainly mare spheroid is notably high in TiO2, 4.6 wt%, particularly considering that the Al2O3/FeO wt. ratio is 1.51, implying that the high-Ti mare component has been heavily diluted with highland matter.

A.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 8; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050169945; Original contains color illustrations; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document The Labeled Release (LR) and Gas Exchange (GEx) experiments onboard the Viking Landers determined that the Martian soils at Chryse and contain unknown inorganic species of a highly oxidizing nature. The LR experiment demonstrated that the addition of a radioactive (14)C labeled nutrient solution to soil samples resulted in the production of (14)C labeled CO2 due to the breakdown of the organic species introduced. In the GEx experiments, humidification of a 1 cu cm Martian soil sample resulted in the production of as much as 790 nanomoles of O2 gas. The presence of a highly oxidizing species in the fine, wind-blown soils on Mars has obvious implications for both the stability of organic species in the Martian near-surface environment, as well as health implications for future human explorers who may be exposed to reactive dust particles through inhalation. At present, the nature of the oxidant in the Martian soils remains enigmatic.

360 Explanations for their reactivity have called on both exotic chemical compounds and/or unusual formation processes to produce oxidants. In the medical literature, specifically that related to silicosis and the toxicity of mineral dusts, it has long been known that the surfaces of freshly ground quartz particles are characterized by highly reactive radical species generated by the rupture of bonds during the grinding process. These surface radical species are stable in dry environments (e.g. the Martian surface) and are capable of producing H2O2 and other Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) in solution. Here, we extend the study of the reactivity of freshly ground mineral surfaces to include the silicate minerals most commonly encountered in basalts and soils at the Martian surface: feldspar, clinopyroxene and olivine. We propose that the oxidizing nature of the Martian soils can be explained by the presence of such mineral surface radical species and propose mechanisms by which they might be formed under ambient conditions at the Martian surface.

20050170029 Arizona Univ., Tucson, AZ, USA Are Martian Crustal Magnetic Anomalies and Valley Networks Concentrated at Low Paleolatitudes?

Several possible explanations involving magmatic intrusions, hydrothermal alteration of the adjacent crust, and surface discharge of water have been suggested. In this paper, we investigate whether the distributions of both magnetic anomalies and valley networks may have been preferentially concentrated at low paleolatitudes. Such a concentration would be expected if melting of water ice and snow was a stronger source of surface valley erosion in the tropics and if hydrothermal alteration of crustal rocks played an important role in producing the unusually strong martian magnetic anomalies.

These outcrops are rich in a slew of mineral and textural signatures that suggest likely formation within water, including probable evaporites. Further, remote sensing data suggest that these outcrops are not a local phenomenon, rather, they are exposed across the entire hematite-bearing plain and well beyond (over an area \g 3 x 10(exp 5) sq km spanning 20 deg of longitude). Recent results from the OMEGA instrument on Mars Express show that the etched terrain mapped is rich in sulfates, thus corroborating the hypothesis that outcrops 100s to \g1000 km from Opportunity are diagenetically related. Moreover, there are potentially correlative terrains (with similar morphologic, thermal, and mineralogic expressions) up to 5,000 km away; including deposits within the Valles Marineris, , and isolated exposures across NW Arabia Terra. We are still trying to understand the full extent of these deposits but it is becoming increasingly clear that copious amounts of water acted over an enormous region of Mars. Little is known about the timing of the putative sea and diagenesis of the layers. Because of its sedimentary and apparent subaqueous origin, the etched terrain was likely emplaced as horizontal to sub-horizontal strata. In this study we test for horizontality of the etched terrain layers and interpret the results in terms of the geological history of this region of Mars.

The unambiguous detection of the lunar core is of prime importance as it holds the potential of distinguishing between the various theories for the formation of the Moon. The theory which currently enjoys the greatest success is the giant impact model, which has the Moon forming about 4.5 Gyr ago from the debris produced when a Mars sized proto planet collided with the proto Earth [e.g. 5, 6]. Simulations reveal that the material from which the Moon is made up contains very little iron and consequently a lunar core, if it exists, should be small. Derived from text Lunar Core; Moon; Iron

Planetary gamma-ray spectroscopy is extremely powerful approach for the elemental composition measurement. Gamma-ray spectrometer (GRS) will be on board SELENE, advanced lunar polar orbiter, and employ a large-volume Ge detector of 252cc as the main detector [1]. SELENE GRS is, therefore, approximately twice more sensitivity than Lunar Prospector GRS, four times more sensitive than APOLLO GRS. The high sensitivity of SELENE GRS will enable us to map element abundances of O, Mg, Fe, Al, Si, Ti, K, Ca, Th, and U, with lower detection limit than the past missions. The Japanese lunar polar orbiter SELENE is scheduled for launch in 2007 and the GRS will observe the whole area of the moon including the polar region. Orbiting the GRS at 100 km in a nominal operation for one year will provide the global mapping of the chemical composition of lunar surface material for more elements than Lunar Prospector did [2]. Now, the flight model of SELENE GRS was built and will be qualified by

362 several environment test. Fig. 1 shows the schematic drawing. It shows an energy resolution of 3 keV @ 1.33 MeV in the GRS system. In this study, we will exhibit expected performance of SELENE GRS in lunar orbits predicted by preliminary Monte Carlo simulation results and describe scientific topics achievable by SELENE GRS.

Troughs up to one kilometer deep with gently (no more 10-15 ) sloping are seen all over the ice cap. The unique feature of the trough system is its helical appearance (Fig. 1). Analogs of ice spiral structures are not known. The troughs have been attributed to the action of aeolian erosion [2-3], sublimation [4] or to ‘accublation’ hypothesis (glacial flow + sublimation + accumulation) [5-7]. It is supposed that an ice mass transfer occurs by sublimation from equatorward-facing slopes and subsequent accumulation on pole-facing slopes. No ideas on origin of spiral pattern have been moved forward with the exception of an attempt to explain trough revolving by combined effects of accublation and ice movement [8].

363 The rotation of Mars is not constant and present irregularities with time. Those are mostly associated with the seasonal cycle of Mars’ atmosphere, and the condensation/sublimation of the icecaps. The dynamics of Mars atmosphere shows a large annual and semi-annual signal, in addition to the diurnal cycle. Besides those periodic components, in the present study we investigate the other atmospheric effects that can excite the polar motion. The influence of surface/atmosphere interactions on the rotation dynamics is classically estimated using the angular momentum approach. The Mars-atmosphere system is considered as isolated, so that any change in the atmosphere angular momentum is associated with an opposite change in the planetary angular momentum. The angular momentum of the atmosphere can be separated into two parts: a matter term representing the rigid rotation of the fluid layer with the planet, and a wind term accounting for the relative motion of the fluid with respect to the surface of the planet.

Theoretically, these quadrants can be associated with tensile secondary fracturing (cracks) and compressive secondary fracturing (anti-cracks), respectively. The existence of such features in terrestrial rocks has been widely documented. Derived from text Fracture Mechanics; Geological Faults; Europa; Cracks

20050170567 University of Western Ontario, London, Ontario, Canada Comparison of Predicted Salt Precipitation Sequences with Mars Exploration Rover Data King, P. L.; Lescinsky, D. T.; Nesbitt, H.

On Mars, geomorphic and geochronologic evidence suggest that surface solutions occurred episodically, and chemical evidence suggests limited weathering of the basaltic crust. Saline solutions are produced via leaching of bulk martian surface materials (martian and impactor materials) containing sulfides, olivine, pyroxene, plagioclase glass. The resulting bulk solution would contain Mg-Ca-Na-(K-Fe)-C-O-H-S-(N-P)- halogen species, with abundant Mg, Na, SO4 and Cl. Local compositional variations are likely. On Mars, sulfate stays in solution, unlike on Earth where sulfate is reduced to sulfide either via biologic processes or hydrothermally at mid-ocean ridges. We model the martian solution compositions as they are concentrated (via freezing or evaporation) using salt solubility and phase equilibria, assuming: 1) thermodynamic modeling

364 is appropriate; 2) 25 C and approx. 10(exp 5) Pa phase diagrams are valid at martian conditions; and, 3) activity coefficients are unity. Derived from text Sodium Chlorides; Precipitation (Chemistry); Mars Exploration; Mars Surface; Data Processing

The initial Al-26/Al-27 ratios of these chondrules are between 1.5 x 10(exp -5) and 3 x 10(exp -6), 1-3 million years (Myr) younger than CAIs with the canonical initial ratios of 5 x 10(exp -5). Similar age differences between CAIs and chondrules are also reported from absolute Pb-Pb ages. Thus, the initial Al-26/Al-27 ratio of the solar system is considered to be homogeneous for applying the Al-26 - Mg-26 chronometer.

Determining the crystallization age of the lunar magma ocean (LMO) is critical for understanding the timing of Moon formation, melting, and subsequent differentiation and cooling. Currently, the most suitable isotope system for dating the crystallization of the LMO is the Hf-182 - W-182 decay scheme, because the Hf/W ratios varied significantly between the different LMO reservoirs, and W isotope variations can have only been produced in the first approx. 60 Myr of the solar system. Thus, information on early differentiation of the Moon is preserved in the 182W/184W of early-formed lunar reservoirs and is carried by lunar samples derived from any of these sources. A chronological interpretation of W isotope ratios for lunar whole-rocks and minerals, however, has been hampered by the neutron-flux induced production of W-182 from Ta-181 caused by the intense cosmic radiation reaching the surface of the Moon. Analyzing the metals of lunar samples can overcome this problem because metals do not contain significant Ta that could be converted to W-182. We present W isotope data for metals from KREEP-rich and -poor highland breccias and low-Ti and high-Ti mare basalts. To investigate the effect of cosmogenic W-182 production in whole-rock samples, the W isotopes in some whole-rocks have also been analyzed Author Hafnium Isotopes; Tungsten Isotopes; Age Factor; Lunar Geology; Magma; Oceans; Crystallization

Chondrites contain CAIs and chondrules, the former representing the oldest yet dated material formed in the solar system. Age differences between CAIs and chondrules based on the U-Pb and 26Al-26Mg chronometers show that chondrule formation persisted for at least approx. 2.5 Myr, indicating that accretion of chondrite parent asteroids lasted for at least approx. 2.5 Myr. These results contrast with estimates from planetary accretion models that propose that the first planetary objects formed within 1 Myr after condensation of the first solid matter. Hf-182 - W-182 ages for iron meteorites show that differentiation (i.e., core formation) of their parent bodies occurred within approx. 5 Myr of each other. For the first time, we link this differentiation event to the ages of CAIs, chondrules, and chondrite

Hayabusa mission is a sample return program of ISAS/JAXA. The spacecraft is going to arrive at Itokawa and to touch down on the surface for sampling materials in autumn of 2005. Our science team requires 3D shape model of the asteroid, which provides fundamental information for making a decision on selecting landing sites. Nowadays, image-based modeling is the favored method of shape recognition of asteroids. For example, Wild 2 was recognized its irregular shape by stereo images. We found following problems make it difficult to develop the precise shape model by stereo method; (1) Hayabusa is equipped a single-eyed camera, (2) Hayabusa doesn’t know own exact position enough to ordinary stereo method. Here we report the procedures and results of this modeling with AMICA (Asteroid Multiband Imaging Camera) and attitude of spacecraft, and distance between target asteroid and the spacecraft only.

The most unusual is the morphology. Martian ejecta blankets are in general characterized by a terminal low concentric ridge (rampart) or a flat-topped plateau (pancake), or radial grooves and scouring. This type of ejecta morphology collectively called layered ejecta structures is in general attributed to various ejecta displacement processes due to involvement of volatiles derived from the subsurface or of atmosphere. We utilized images and stereo-derived topographic data acquired by the HRSC (High Resolution Stereo Camera) onboard Mars Express in order to study geology of Martian impact crater ejecta blankets. We examined more than a dozen impact craters with possible evidence for water involvement during the formation by constructing 3-dimensional views and deriving various parameters. The high precisions of the HRSC data set ensure quantitative analyses of such impact craters better than previously possible. The investigated relatively pristine impact craters are distributed in the eastern Tharsis, but examples from other regions are also included. We examined various geomorphology and geomorphic parameters of Martian layered ejecta structures. The layered ejecta structures on Mars have been classified into different types including single lobe, multi lobate and double lobate. Representative topographic profiles from our study clearly show a wide range of morphology. An example of typical single-lobed layered ejecta structure is shown having a thick flat-topped plateau and a

366 terminal rampart. The double lobate type is characterized by clearly separate inner thick lobes and much thinner outer lobes. Derived from text Cameras; Ejecta; Geomorphology; High Resolution; Mars Express; Stereophotography; Mars Craters

Aqueous alteration on Mars would lead to formation of secondary minerals, which could occur in soils, weathering rinds, rock coatings, or sedimentary cements. In order to understand the alteration state of the Martian surface, it is crucial that we anticipate what secondary minerals might have formed on Mars. It is also critical that we understand how secondary materials affect remote observations. In particular, we must understand spectral observations of secondary minerals in geologic context: How do these materials appear when they occur as weathering rinds, soils, cements, or coatings? Small amounts of weathering could produce significant differences between fresh rock and weathered rock spectra. Previously, we investigated thermal infrared spectra of silica-coated rocks and showed that small amounts of amorphous silica coating basalt greatly influenced spectra, with silica coatings thicker than 7-10 m completely obscuring the basalt s thermal infrared spectral signature [1]. In weathering rinds, fine-grained, secondary silicates tend to coat primary minerals, and can be thought of as discontinuous, rock-penetrating coatings. Consequently, we expect thermal infrared spectral effects of weathering rinds to be similar to those seen with silica coatings, in that small volumes of secondary products will have large effects.

367 Lane and Irvine carried out the integral photometrical observations of the Moon at Le Houga observatory (South France) in 1964-1965. These are the most full integral observations of the Moon: the Moon was observed over phase angles 6 degrees less than or equal to alpha less than or equal to 120 degrees in nine narrow bands (350-1000 nm) and in UBV. But their suitability for studying the phase dependence of brightness of lunar surface decreases through presence of systematical errors caused by influence of libration variations and changing of contribution of mares and highlands in integral brightness with phase changes. Therefore we have tried to correct Lane’s and Irvine’s data. Derived from text Brightness; Lunar Surface; Photometry; Moon; Data Processing

Degrees of melting were sufficient to virtually eliminate plagioclase from the entire ureilite milieu; at temperatures of approx.1210- 1300 C [1]. According to some recent interpretations [e.g., 2,3] core formation commences not long after an asteroidal interior reaches the Fe-FeS eutectic (approx.990 C). This scenario seems implausible for the interior of an asteroid, where extensive mobilization of solid components (without implausibly high S, only minor proportions of metal will melt near the eutectic) can only be expected as a concomitant of extensive matrix melting. At any rate, at about the same time the ureilites underwent partial melting, they acquired moderate to major depletions in siderophile elements. Natural siderophile variations are notoriously untidy, but collectively the many ureilite samples can potentially furnish important insight into the early stages of core formation.

They occur most often in environments characterized by low ambient wind speeds and strong unstable lapse rates. There is increasing evidence that vertical vortices in the terrestrial convective boundary layer may occur frequently without the presence of visible tracers and therefore be much more common than previously thought. The ubiquity of in certain regions on Mars suggest that they are a regular feature of the Martian boundary layer. The implications of dust devils on vertical transports of heat, momentum, and particulates may be significant. In addition, they could pose some threat to landers and rovers, or spacecraft upon descent and landing. This study presents results from an idealized Large Eddy Simulation (LES) of the Martian Boundary Layer (MBL).

Most crucial from these new rover missions has been their ability to travel to rock outcroppings and probe the weathered exteriors and fresher interiors of rocks with chemical and mineralogical and a variety of optical imaging systems. Both rovers have returned data indicating layer-by-layer aqueous deposition or aqueous alteration under conditions that were almost certainly highly acidic and hypersaline but not as cold as current conditions. The two landing sites are very different, but the rover observations dovetail nicely with synoptic observations made from orbiters. The accumulated sets of observations for both sites indicate periods of hydrogeologic processes involving huge amounts of liquid water. Both rovers have produced data consistent with possible continued aqueous processes, most likely involving minute traces of acidic, saline brines that are liquid and chemically active in the upper centimeters on warm days, but frozen much of the time. Terrestrial analog sites provide a rich variety of insights into the cause of the observed chemistry, mineralogy, and physical sedimentology at each rover site. A sea or big lake is implicated for Meridiani Planum, and a huge debris flow is likely at Crater. Room remains for alternate or modified interpretations, but water is unavoidable.

Chondritic organic matter is based on small aromatic units, cross-linked by short aliphatic chains rather than large clusters of polyaromatic structures. Two main characteristic features of those organics measured by FTIR are: (1) an equivalent intensity of the asymmetric stretching mode absorptions for CH3 (2960/cm) and CH2 (2920/cm) and (2) a lack of aromatic CH-stretching mode (3040/cm). Tagish Lake is a new type of water- and carbon-rich type 2 carbonaceous chondrite. Its total carbon content is approx. 5 wt%, of which the organic carbon content reaches approx. 1.3 wt%. Tagish Lake may have never experienced temperatures higher than 120 C after formation of organics based on the disappearance of infrared (IR) organic peaks in step heating experiments.

The oxidation state of the upper mantle of the Earth, Mars, and Venus may play a role in the development of endogenic processes that lead to observable surface features. Oxygen fugacity is known to have an effect on the viscosity of olivine single crystals under constant stress. However, the behavior of polycrystalline olivine samples deformed under different oxidation states is less well understood. Deformation experiments were performed on Aheim dunite over ranges of temperature, stress, and solid state buffer to investigate the dependence of viscosity on oxygen fugacity. In many studies of kinetic properties on olivine single crystals and polycrystalline aggregates, oxygen fugacity was buffered at the iron-wustite (IW) buffer by the sample jacket. In the present study, we explicitly compare the strength of samples deformed at the nickel-nickel oxide (NNO) and the iron-wustite solid state buffers in order to quantify the dependence of creep rate on oxygen fugacity.

The atmospheres of these objects are the product of their surfaces, both the surface composition and the interactions that occur on them and also their interiors when gases escape from there. Thus by studying surface bounded exospheres it is possible to develop insight into the composition and processes that are taking place on the surface and interiors of these objects. The Moon and Mercury are two examples of planetary bodies with surface bounded exospheres that have been studied through spectroscopic observations of sodium, potassium, and, on the moon, mass spectrometric measurements of lunar gases such as argon and helium.

There are few naturally occurring rocks on the coastal plain of Georgia, so by definition, any rock found there is ‘unusual’. However, this particular specimen turned out to be not only unusual, but otherworldly. In mid-June, 2000 Cannon was harvesting a crop of butter beans when his mechanical bean picker pulled the rock up from his field. In the process, yellow paint from the device was deposited on the specimen. Cannon removed the rock and tossed it between a pair of produce freezers under a shed in his back yard. For more than 3 years the rock sat exposed to the elements. When Cannon was cleaning the area around the shed in summer 2003, he finally decided to find out exactly

370 what the rock was. He said he suspected it might be a meteorite because it was heavier than expected for its size, and after breaking off a small fragment, he noticed it was very dark inside. Derived from text Chondrites; Meteorites

We have analysed the deformation of parautochthonous and autochthonous target rocks inside and outside the tectonic crater rim at a distance ranging from 10 to 20 km with respect to the crater center. We have observed several sub-horizontal shear planes (detachments) in stratified target rocks and measured their displacement vector. It is suggested that spallation and dragging of the ejecta curtain caused the formation of detachments in the surrounding of the transient crater cavity. A numerical model is compared with the structural data and gives further hints to the time sequence, applied stresses, and magnitude of shear movements.

In case of VESSR the payload is a canister with the surface sample plus a Venus ascent vehicle (VAV), which is a rocket that takes the sample into orbit for rendezvous with an Earth return vehicle. VISE is envisioned as a more limited precursor mission where the surface sample is only taken to high altitudes so that non time-critical analyses can be performed. From the balloon point of view, the only difference between these two missions is that the VESSR payload to be lifted is very much larger than VISE because of the inclusion of the VAV. A key problem is that at the time the decadal survey was published, no high temperature balloon technology existed to implement either mission. Prior technology development efforts had concentrated on a single balloon that could operate across the entire 0-60 km altitude range, tolerating both the sulfuric acid aerosols and the extreme temperatures of -10 to +460 C. However, this problem was unsolved because no combination of sufficiently lightweight balloon material and manufacturing (seaming) technology was ever found to tolerate the high temperatures at the surface.

The interaction between molten lava and surface and ground water produces a range of morphologic features on Earth. Many of these features are interpreted to exist on Mars. Rootless cones (a.k.a. pseudocraters) have been reported in a number of locations on Mars and interpreted to be the result of explosive interaction between the liquid lava and groundwater/ice. The enigmatic ring structures seen in Athabasca Valles may have formed by relatively gentle lava-groundwater interaction. Mesas-like features in several areas of Mars are interpreted as constructional features formed by lava erupted under ice and/or water. However, rootless cones remain the feature most often and definitively cited as evidence of lava-water interaction on Mars. Despite the repeated use of these rootless cones to infer the presence of water in the shallow subsurface, only limited quantitative information has been extracted

371 from them. The minimum depth to subsurface water or ice has been calculated based on the simple assumption that the lava must conductively heat the substrate, melt ice, and boil water. Greeley and Fagents also calculate the amount of gas needed to propel clasts to build a rootless cone on Earth and Mars. They concluded that only small amounts of water are necessary for rootless cones to form on Mars.

In particular, the estimates of lava temperatures of approx. 1600 C require that the interior of Io be: (a) largely undifferentiated and (b) almost completely molten. However, models of tidal dissipation within Io show that a largely molten interior would not produce sufficient heat to maintain the observed level of volcanism. The latest modeling suggests that Io s mantle should not contain more than 20% melt. If Io s bulk composition is similar to a CM chondrite, then 20% melt implies a lava temperature of 1200 C. This 400 C discrepancy is the focus of this study. Derived from text Lava; High Temperature; Io

Various mechanisms have been proposed for forming the dichotomy, including both internal processes related to mantle convection and external processes related to one or more large impacts. Gravity and topography observations provide clues that can help to constrain the mechanisms which produced the dichotomy. For example, these observations can constrain the lithospheric thickness and hence the heat flux at the time of lithospheric loading. They can also reveal the presence of possible buried structures. In this work, I focus on the dichotomy boundary in eastern Mars between 50o and 155o East longitude. In this region, the dichotomy boundary has a roughly linear planform, striking NW-SE, except where the boundary is affected by the Isidis impact basin. The topographic offset across the dichotomy in this part of Mars is relatively scarp-like, with 3 to 4 km of vertical relief occurring across a narrow transition zone between the southern highlands and the northern lowlands. The results reported here are based on the highest resolution gravity model currently available from the Planetary Data System, JGM95I-01, and include spherical harmonic degrees 2-60 (half-wavelength resolution 180 km).

Previous and current measurements have mainly used gamma rays with energies greater than 500 keV, although most missions measured down to approx. 100 keV. Gamma rays above approx. 100 keV are very penetrating and thus hard to collimate, so previous missions to the Moon and Mars have measured gamma rays arriving from the entire visible surface. The spatial resolution was not better than about the distance above the planet s surface. The continua observed on previous missions down to ~100 keV increases significantly with decreasing energy. These continua make it hard to measure the fluxes of gamma-ray lines with energies below approx. 500 keV, and all elemental analyses have used higher-energy gamma rays, usually using only

372 lines. The continuum can be used to study components of the lunar composition. The lunar continuum is a good measure of the abundance of the natural radioactive elements K, U, and Th, using the continuum between 0.55 and 2.75 MeV and between 450 and 480 keV. Fourier transforms of continua have been proposed to determine composition. Derived from text Computation; Flux (Rate); Gamma Rays; Lunar Rays; Flux

Volcanism may still play an important role in mountain formation, however, e.g., as indicated by the now famous degree-2 anticorrelation between mountain and volcano distributions. Three major hypotheses for mountain formation that have been proposed are a) convection-modified subsidence, which states that burial of older volcanic layers by new ones (subsidence) creates large, global compressional stresses, which are modified by degree-2 mantle convection resulting in two broad regions each of compression and relative tension; b) plume-focused subsidence, where subsidence stresses are focused by upwelling mantle plumes impinging on the base of the crust to produce isolated mountains; and c) thermally-modified subsidence, which proposes that mountains are formed by a combination of thermal and subsidence stresses, the former created in the crust due to localized or regional reductions in eruption rates, which cause strong increased conductive heating.

373 Hydrothermal alteration products that correlate with ejecta from small craters (less than approx. 100 m deep) could flag near-surface hydrothermal activity. An accompanying abstract discusses potential airborne (Mars satellite analog) routes to discover such sites, based on testing from explosion craters at the Nevada Test Site (NTS). Here we report correlated ground-based studies that use rover-analog, thermal infrared imaging spectroscopy. A primary goal of the airborne study is to determine routes to discovery of hydrothermal activity on Mars. The goals of the ground-based study are: (1) determine which materials and textures cause the observed airborne signatures, and which materials are imperceptible; (2) compare the airborne results to detailed geologic maps; and (3) develop lessons-learned for Mars.

Hydrothermal alteration products that correlate with ejecta from small craters (less than 100 m deep) can flag possible near-surface hydrothermal activity. A region with such activity is a highly prized target for Mars exploration. Here we describe an airborne (satellite analog) study that identified mineral indicators of hydrothermal activity exposed by manmade explosion craters in a basalt flow. Abstract presents the related ground-based study. This field development work draws mainly on operational expertise from outside NASA. One goal is to develop an operational foundation for routes to discovery for Mars. Author Mars Exploration; Hydrothermal Systems; Craters; Basalt

Several of these large impacts may have generated antipodal structure with anomalous magnetic intensity.These regions can be more than a thousand km across, with fields of the order of tens to hundreds of nT. This is the case of Orientale, Imbrium, Serenitatis, Crisium, and Nectaris impact basins. The production of large-scale magnetic fields and associated crustal magnetization due to lunar basin-forming impacts was hypothesized to have an origin in fields external to the impact plasma cloud that are produced by the magnetohydrodynamic interaction of the cloud with ambient magnetic fields and plasmas. During the period of compressed antipodal field amplification, seismic compressional waves from the impact converge at the antipode resulting in transient shock pressures that reach 2 GPa (20 kbar). This can produce conditions for shock magnetic acquisition of the crust antipodal to impact basins. Derived from text Magnetic Anomalies; Moon; Structural Basins; Transient Pressures; Magnetization

First, as an extension of the ASU Mars Education Program, there was a desire to inspire students to become more interested in science. The premise was that kids of all ages like space and, in turn, kids like Mars. Using the lure of Mars to get them interested in science seemed like a good plan. Secondly, there was a desire from the ASU Mars science team to collect more rock samples from around the world to expand the earth-based rock library at Arizona State University. This library currently supports research that is being conducted by the Thermal Emission Spectrometer (TES), the Thermal Emission Imaging System (THEMIS) - both in orbit around Mars, and the two Mini-Thermal Emission Spectrometer (Mini-TES) instruments onboard the Mars Exploration Rovers on the surface of Mars. All of these instruments are currently being used to study rocks on Mars. The Rock Around the World Program evolved from these beginning ideas and has become an inspiration to all involved.

Acfer 094 which is thought to be the most pristine chondrite represents the highest abundance of approximately 40, 30 and 110 ppm. Some researchers suggest that there are some effects of alteration and metamorphism in matrix even in the petrologic subtype 3.0 chondrites. Therefore, it is unclear for the effect of alteration and metamorphism against the submicron order of presolar silicates even in type-3 chondrites. In this study we report the presolar silicates from the least altered and metamorphosed carbonaceous chondrites, Y-81025 (CO3.0), ALHA 77307 (CO3.0), Adelaide (ungrouped, linked to CV-CO) and Acfer 094 (ungrouped, linked to CO-CM), which there are some agreement that the above chondrites are one of the most pristine chondrites.

Previous works using the Earth-based telescopes or remote sensing data revealed a large variation in the composition of mare basalts, and suggested that the basin-scale mare volcanism evolved independently of neighboring regions. It is therefore necessary to know the chemical properties of mare basalts, together with their detailed distribution and stratigraphy in each region, and to understand how the mare volcanism evolved compositionally and spatially in a basin. For these purpose, we have mapped the mare basalts on the nearside of the Moon using the Clementine UVVIS multi-spectral images, and construct their stratigraphy. This paper presents the result of Oceanus Procellarum and Mare Imbrium, and discusses the temporal and spatial variations of the mare volcanism of this area and the eastern nearside region.

Pyroxenes in this meteorite are pigeonite and augite, and both pyroxenes are extensively zoned from relatively Mg-rich cores to Ferich rims.

376 The Ca zoning pattern is complex and pigeonite and augite are irregularly distributed unlike other basaltic shergottites. Previous study interpreted this irregular zoning as the result of exsolution at low temperature. Because LA has high plagioclase abundance similar to QUE94201, there is a possibility that the LA bulk composition represents a parent melt composition. However, these two shergottites show distinct pyroxene zoning patterns although their compositions are generally similar. In this study, we performed a crystallization experiment using the LA bulk composition to investigate the crystallization history of LA. We also compared LA mineralogy with that of Dhofar 378 (DHO) which shows a lot of mineralogical characteristics similar to LA, and applied the experimental result to explain the differences between LA and DHO.

Geologic mapping of a large trough system located between two of the chasmata indicates that the trough’s location and erosional morphologies are in large part, structurally controlled by SPLD bedding attitudes. The scarps of Promethei and Ultimum Chasma also reveal dipping SPLD beds. Therefore, to what degree is the location of these chasmata and their formation history controlled by SPLD bedding and (or) substrate topography? We have undertaken a detailed geologic mapping study of the chasmata using Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) and Mars Odyssey (MO) datasets to determine their bedding features, formation mechanisms, and emplacement timing. Syntheses of these observations allow discrimination and characterization of potential structural controls over chasma formation. This study is part of our 1:1.5M-scale geologic mapping project of Mars north and south polar ice deposits. A general review of the mapping results is included.

The cratering record indicates the age of the surface, while the original morphology of individual craters hints to the target material. Furthermore, craters provide a natural basin for later deposits, thus showing glimpses of the regional evolution. The 2000 km Hellas impact basin dominates about half of the southern hemisphere of Mars. The region has numerous volcanic, tectonic, glacial, fluvial and aeolian features, as well as a multitude of large and small impact craters. Fresh large (greater than 5 km) Martian craters have typically raised rims, a central peak and/or a peak ring and a generally flat floor with slumping on the inner walls. The additional central or summit pits are common features on Martian craters, and generally related to high volatile content of the

377 target material. These features are subsequently modified and smoothened by later geological processes characteristical for the area, e.g. erosion, sedimentation and impact cratering. One type of post-impact modification is the creation of depressions on the crater floor. Such features include pits, large scale fractures and, in some cases, more complex depressions such as honeycomb-like ridges with intervening pits. Continuing our study of these anomalous crater floors, we map the structures in the Hellas region using the High Resolution Stereo Color (HRSC) images obtained in 2004. HRSC provides multiple channels and improved accuracy (10-60m/pix) compared to the previous data sets with related areal coverage.

A standard planet migration model was used in which the migration speed decreases exponentially with a characteristic time scale. A series of numerical simulations were performed, each involving the migrating giant planets plus 1000 test particle Neptune Trojans with initial distributions of orbital eccentricity, inclination, and libration amplitude similar to those of the known jovian Trojans asteroids. The simulations were analyzed to measure the survivability of Neptune’s Trojans as a function of migration rate. The results of this analysis are summarized in this paper.

Deep moonquakes were characterized by identical waveforms at a given station observed at near monthly intervals[2]. The identification of these deep moonquakes and also other events was made by the visual inspection of long-period seismograms, resulting in 12,558 catalogued events [3]. A new computer analysis of the Apollo lunar seismic data set using a combination of waveform cross-correlation and single-link cluster analysis [4] revealed that about 60% of the identified and catalogued events are deep moonquakes, and increased the number of identified deep moonquakes by more than a factor of five. We have applied a simple nonlinear method of Poincare map to time distribution of events listed in the new catalogue and it reveals previously undetected features of hidden periodic components on the deep moonquake activity.

They are low in Ti, and distinct from other low-Ti mare basalts by their higher alumina content (12 - 15 wt% Al2O3 compared to7-12wt%Al2O3). Other key oxide concentrations include MgO=7-12 wt%, FeO=13-17 wt%, TiO2=1.5-3 wt%, and incompatible elements 10 to 100 times chondrite, (e.g., Th concentrations are 0.1-3 ppm). Some of the high-Al basalts are old (\g4 Ga), and the sample data suggests there are at least three and possibly five distinct sources and episodes of volcanism represented at the Apollo 14 site alone [1]. Exposures of these basalts near the Apollo 14 are likely masked by ejecta from the Imbrium impact, which is responsible for the formation of the Apollo 14 breccias and post-dates eruption of the basalts. This suggests that they could be a significant component of ancient basalts that are now buried beneath

378 impact deposits (cryptomare). The existence of younger aluminous basalts at the Apollo 12 and Luna 16 sites suggest that aluminous basaltic volcanism spanned over a billion years [2,3]. Derived from text Aluminum Oxides; Basalt; Chondrites; Deposits

Also, LEMMS measures high-energy electrons (E\g3 Mev) and protons (1.6 \h E \h 160 Mev) from the back end of the dual field-of-view telescope. The Saturn observation sequences began in January, 2004 and culminated in Saturn Orbit Insertion on July 1, 2004. The MIMI sensors observed substantial activity in interplanetary space for several months prior to SOI, including several interplanetary shocks associated with corotating interaction regions, numerous increases most likely originating from particle streams in the vicinity of the Saturnian bow shock and energetic neutral atoms (ENA) emanating from Saturn s magnetosphere. Results following SOI revealed: a dynamical magnetosphere with a day-night asymmetry and an 11-hour periodicity; several water-product ions (O+, OH+, H2O+), but little N+; inferred quantities of neutral gas sufficient to cause major losses in the trapped ions and electrons in the middle and inner magnetosphere; a Titan exosphere that is a copious source of ENA; INCA imaging through ENA has also revealed a previously unknown radiation belt residing inward of the D-ring that is most likely the result of double charge-exchange between the main radiation belt and the upper layers of Saturn s exosphere. Finally, there is ample evidence for the presence of substorm-like injections of plasma that subsequently corotates for a number of days before dissipating on the night-side magnetotail. The observations will be presented and discussed in the context of current theoretical models.

The energy deposited by the debris warmed the atmosphere over continent-sized areas near the impact site and antipode. The thermal contrast with the surrounding atmosphere generated winds aloft with speeds of approx.80 m/sec to near-supersonic values of 255 m/sec. These winds, in turn, drove surface winds that could have reached hurricane strength over broad regions. Within those regions, the tropopause was temporarily destroyed and aerosols (sea salt, soil dust, soot from fires) were swept from the troposphere into the stratosphere.

20050170634 Hawaii Univ., Honolulu, HI, USA Relative Chronology of CAI and Chondrule Formation: Evidence from Chondrule-bearing Igneous CAIs Krot, a. N.; Yurimoto, H.; Hutcheon, I. D.; MacPherson, G. J.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 11; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050170551; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Chondrules and CAIs are the major high temperature chondritic components formed during transient heating events in the solar nebula approx.4.57 billion years ago [1,2]. One of the major questions in meteoritics concerning the origin of CAIs and chondrules is their relative chronology. Most CAIs show large Mg-26 excesses (Mg*-26) corresponding to an initial Al-26/Al-27 ratio [(Al-26/Al-27)0] of approx.5 10(exp -5) [3,4], whereas most chondrules have smaller Mg*-26

379 corresponding to (Al-26/Al-27)0 of less than or equal to 1.2 10(exp -5) [5-7]. Based on these observations and the assumption that Al-26 was uniformly distributed in the solar nebula, it is generally inferred that CAIs formed at least 1-1.5 Myr before chondrules. This conclusion has recently been questioned based on new Pb [2] and Mg isotope measurements [4]. The Pb-207-Pb-206 ages of the Allende chondrules (4566.7+/-1.0 Ma) cannot be distinguished from those of the CV CAIs (4567.2+/-0.6 Ma) [1,2]. Bizzarro et al. [4] reported a range of (Al-26/Al-27)0 from (5.66+/-0.80) to (1.36+/-0.52) 10(exp -5) in the bulk Allende chondrules and concluded that chondrule formation began contemporaneously with the formation of CAIs, and continued for at least 1.4 Myr. We note, however, that the (Al-26/Al-27)0 ratios inferred from bulk Mg isotope measurements of chondrules may date the time for the formation of chondrule precursor materials, not the time of chondrule melting; the latter requires Mg isotope measurements of mineral separates or individual mineral grains, which have not been done yet. In addition, spatial heterogeneity of 26Al in the solar nebula cannot be ruled out.

Full petrologic characterization of a sample (rock or soil), however, requires determining the range of mineral compositions, extent of zoning, range of grain sizes, mineral associations, presence of xenocrysts, etc. Information of this sort will aid the interpretation of sample crystallization and differentiation histories and help discriminate between lithologies. In Raman spectroscopic experiments, minerals are identified by their spectral patterns and mineral compositions can be inferred from the peak positions. Instruments currently in use or slated for impending surface exploration missions provide only average elemental compositions for relatively large rock or soil targets or bulk mineral analysis. No techniques currently in use or scheduled for flight can characterize both structure and composition of individual mineral grains, in-situ, like the Mars Microbeam Raman Spectrometer (MMRS). The MMRS is designed to take 100 spectra alonga1cm linear traverse on the surface of a sample, with contributions from one or a few mineral phases per spectrum. We presented a method to extract structural and compositional information from the Raman spectra of quadrilateral pyroxenes. The pyroxene calibration was applied to a Raman spectroscopic study of Martian meteorite EETA79001 along with a preliminary olivine calibration, where we demonstrated the capability to discriminate related lithologies using Raman point counts. This paper presents an improved olivine calibration that will further aid sample characterization and the study of alteration processes.

This is the only known example of a km-sized asteroid that impacted a deep-ocean (5 km) basin, and the central portion of the impact region is the most meterorite-rich locality known on Earth. Evidence for this deposit was first discovered as an Ir anomaly in sediments from three cores collected in 1965 [1,2] by the USNS Eltanin These cores were also found to contain mm-sized shock-melted asteroidal materials and several percent unmelted meteorite fragments [3]. Based on mineral chemistry of unmelted meteorite fragments, and siderophole element concentrations in the impact melt, the parent asteroid is considered to be a low-metal (approx.4%) mesosiderite [4,5].

In spite of this, their origin is commonly considered to be a simple one: mixing of silicates, fractionated or unfractionated, with metal. The latter had to be liquid in order to accommodate the former in a pore-free way which all models accomplish by assuming shock melting. II-E iron meteorites are particularly interesting because they contain an exotic zoo of silicate inclusions, including some chemically strongly fractionated ones. They also pose a formidable conundrum: young silicates are enclosed by very old metal. This and many other incompatibilities between models and reality forced the formulation of an alternative genetic model for irons. Here we present preliminary findings in our study of Kodaikanal silicate inclusions. Derived from text Inclusions; Iron Meteorites; Mineralogy; Silicates

It was also shown that water ice distribution in surficial layer of the northern and the southern sub-polar regions is notably different [4]. Until today the existing HEND data already covers the period more then one the Martian year. This let to study the seasonal effects of volatiles redistribution associated with processes of sublimation and condensation of the seasonal polar caps and water exchange between the surface regolith and atmosphere. The goal of our work was to analyze the dynamic of the globally mapped neutrons flux as key to understanding of the seasonal redistribution of the water ice in the surface layer. For this we analyzed the globally mapped flux of the neutrons with different energy and corresponding effective layer of their emission.

By calibrating the observed size-frequency distribution of impact craters at the Apollo sites to their radiometric ages, it is possible to determine the ages of other geologic units on the Moon and other planetary bodies. The Moon, however, is not so neutral a reference body as one would hope. Because it is locked in a synchronous rotation about the Earth, we have found that it experiences a significant asymmetry in its cratering rate, and that this asymmetry may induce dramatic errors when dating surfaces far from the Apollo landing sites.

We assess several possible origins for this unit and the associated features, and conclude that the most plausible explanation is an ice-rich remnant created by a combination of ponding and ice-cover deflation during the waning stages of the outflow channel flood emplacement.

The xenoliths demonstrate accretion of chondrite-like particles onto the surface of the aubrite parent body (APB). However, the flux of interplanetary dust seems to have been different from that on the HED parent body and Earth by composition and intensity. It could indicate that the APB sampled the dust at a different time or moved through a different region of the Solar System than did the HED parent body and the Earth.

The relatively short photochemical lifetime of CH4 (approx.300 years) argues for a geologically young source. We demonstrate here that low-temperature alteration of basaltic crust by carbon-bearing hydrothermal fluid can produce the required CH4 flux of 1 x 10(exp 7) moles/year, assuming conservative values for crustal permeability and oxygen fugacity as implied by martian basaltic meteorites. The crustal thermal disturbance due to a single dike approx. 10x1x10 km during the past 10(exp 4) years is capable of driving the alteration, if all carbon is supplied by magmatic degassing from a dike with only 50 ppm C. Atmospheric methane strongly suggests ongoing magmatism and hydrothermal alteration on Mars.

These observations include differential brightening and/or darkening between polar areas from the end of the spring to midsummer. These differences are attributed to changes in grain size or dust content of surface ice. To better understand the summer behavior of the permanent northern polar cap, we perfomed a high resolution modeling (approximately 1 deg x 1 deg.) of northern cap in the Martian Climate/water cycle as simulated by the Laboratoire de Meteorologie Dynamique (LMD) global climate model. We compare the predicted properties of the surface ice (ice thickness, temperature) with the Mars Express Omega summer observations of the northern cap. albedo and thermal inertia svariations model. In particular, albedo variations could be constrained by OMEGA data. Meteorological predictions of the LMD GCM wil be presented at the conference to interpret the unprecedently resolved OMEGA observations. The specific evolution of regions of interest (cap center, Chasma Boreal...) and the possibility of late summer global cap brightening will be discussed.

The transition from oriented-network/orthogonal-intersection polygons in upper Mullins Valley to hexagonal polygons where Mullins debouches into central Beacon Valley may provide a time-series of polygon initiation and evolution.

The 10-cm-diameter prototype collector will serve as a 1/3-scale model of one proposed for use during drilling of the IceCube neutrino observatory at South Pole. It is also operational in its own right for use with smaller hot-water drills. Derived from text Polar Caps; Micrometeorites; Collection; Extraction; Ice; Neutrinos

ARES helps to fill a gap in the scale and perspective of the and addresses many key COMPLEX/MEPAG questions (e.g., nature and origin of crustal magnetic anomalies) not readily pursued in other parts of the exploration program. ARES supports the human exploration program through key environmental measurements and high-resolution contiguous data essential to reference mission design.

A number of early basins rest, either on this ancient craton (Hamersley and Ashburton Basins), or along its suture with the adjoining Yilgarn Block (i.e., Bryah, Yerrida, Padbury, Earaheedy and Bangemall Basins), known as the Capricorn Orogen. These ancient basins preserve a comprehensive stratigraphic record that reflects the development of earth s early atmosphere and the expansion of the biosphere. Here we present the results of an extensive study of the stable isotopes of carbon and oxygen in carbonates in these early successions. We also attempt to assess the factors controlling the evolution of Earth’s early atmosphere and biosphere in relation to planetary dynamics.

It is likely that vast regions of the Martian crust were demagnetized due to a shock-induced phase change or magnetic transition of magnetic minerals in the crust. This hypothesis is supported by the fact that around the Hellas and Argyre basins, the edges of the unmagnetized zones roughly correspond with peak shock pressure contour lines of a few GPa. Although pyrrhotite is not a major carrier of magnetization in the Earth s crust, it is a common phase in Martian meteorites and may be an important carrier in the Martian crust. Understanding the effects of shock waves on magnetic minerals is critical for determining the origin of the demagnetized zones in impact basins and possibly for identifying the major magnetic carrier phases. Here we present the results of the first controlled shock demagnetization measurements on pyrrhotite.

It entered in the atmosphere of Titan on 14 January at about 09:06 UTC. Following the 4-min entry, 3 parachutes were deployed in sequence. The descent under parachute lasted slightly less than 2 1/2 hours. After a soft landing at about 5 m/s, the probe continued to function for several hours on the surface. During the descent under parachute and on the surface, Huygens transmitted its data at 8 kbps on two redundant channels to the over-flying Orbiter which approached Titan at a closest distance of 60000 km about 1/2 hour before landing. Data were successfully received only on one channel due to a configuration error of the receiver of the channel which was driven by the ultra-stable oscillators (USO) of the Doppler Wind Experiment (DWE). The Orbiter received data during the descent under parachute and for 72 minutes on the surface until its path moved it outside the beam of the transmitting antennas of the probe resting on the surface and at the same time as the Orbiter went below the Horizon.

Studies of ureilites indicate that the parent body went through a series of igneous processes, while, at the same time, ureilites contain features that can only be explained by mixing of primitive nebular materials. Several models have been proposed to explain the origin of ureilites, and these include multi-stage igneous cumulate processes, residues of partial melting, collision of primitive planetesimals, and most recently smelting of an olivine-rich parent body. Despite the difficulty of finding a single model to satisfy all the chemical and physical observations, there is little doubt that ureilites represent the silicate portion of a differentiated body. In this study, we present the first (182)Hf-(182)W (t(sub 1/2) approx. 9 myrs) data for a suite of ureilites in order to further constrain the nature and the timing of this partial melting/smelting event.

387 Sulfates have been identified in Martian soils and bedrock and are emerging as an important indicator for aqueous activity on Mars. Sulfate minerals can form in a variety of low-temperature (evaporitic; chemical-weathering) and high-temperature (volcanic/fumarolic; hydrothermal) environments and their formational environments can range from alkaline to acidic. Although sulfates generally form in the presence of water, not all sulfates are hydrous or contain water in their structures. Many of these anhydrous sulfates (Dana group 28; Strunz class 67A) are minerals that form as accompanying phases to the main minerals in ore deposits or as replacement deposits in sedimentary rocks. However, some form from thermal decomposition of OH or H2O-bearing sulfates, such as from the reaction [1]: jarosite = yavapaiite + Fe2O3 + H2O. Where known, the stability fields of these minerals all suggest that they would be stable under martian surface conditions [2]. Thus, anhydrous sulfate minerals may contribute to martian surface mineralogy, so they must be well-represented in spectral libraries used for interpretation of the Martian surface. We present here the preliminary results of an integrated study of emittance, reflectance, and Mossbauer spectroscopy of a suite of wel-lcharacterized anhydrous sulfates.

Channels may extend for \g200 km [Baker et al., 1992], may or may not contain levees [Bussey et al., 1995; Baker et al., 1997] and sometimes occur in discontinuous segments. Hypotheses regarding venusian channel formation assume channels result from the movement of fluid at the surface [Gregg and Greeley, 1993; Komatsu et al., 1992; Bussey et al., 1995; Williams-Jones et al., 1998; Jones and Pickering, 2003; Lang and Hansen, 2004]; the fluid will form channels through either constructional [Gregg and Greeley, 1993] or erosional [Komatsu et al., 1992; Bussey et al., 1995; Williams-Jones et al., 1998; Jones and Pickering, 2003; Lang and Hansen, 2004] processes. Last year, we [Lang and Hansen, 2004] noted that some channels cut wrinkle ridges and shields and concluded that this relationship suggested thermal erosion of a substrate by fluid at the surface. However, in this abstract, we argue that those observations are inconsistent with channel formation as a surface process. Instead, we argue that our observations [Lang and Hansen, 2004] are more consistent with channel formation as a subsurface process. Subsurface fluid movement may erode the overlying material, or suprastrate. Our hypothesis presented here is similar to the one outlined by Komatsu et al. (2001) for the formation of valley networks; however, our hypothesis does not call upon fluid moving along pre-existing fractures.

Viking obtained the first comprehensive coverage in the visible [1]. IRTM and TES/MGS brightness temperature observations [2,3,4] demonstrated that water ice dominate the permanent cap after the summer solstice. Global maps of the cap were obtained in the visible relying on albedo contrasts, but very significant differences in terms of extent were observed with this criterion both between Martian years and within a given summer [1,5]. In October and November 2004, the OMEGA imaging spectrometer on board Mars Express was able to obtain global maps of surface water ice at high northern latitudes with a resolution of 2 to 5 km per pixel using the strong absorption bands of water ice between 1.25 and 4 m [6]. The extent of surface ice remained stable, nearly identical to that observed by Viking in 1976. It was possible to link albedo variations with changes in ice grain size, dust content and aerosol optical thickness. Since mid November 2004, due to the northward motion of the pericenter of Mars Express, it is not possible anymore to obtain global maps, but observations of specific regions can be made at resolutions per pixel of 1 km or less.

Strikingly similar morphologies on Mars, at similar physical scales, have been identified in high resolution images taken by the Mars Orbital Camera (MOC). These polygons are thought to be caused from thermal contraction in ice-rich soils. The focus of our research is to systematically classify and map the distribution of different types of patterned ground found in the southern polar regions of Mars. The different types of patterned ground are grouped together and mapped onto a Mars polar base map with a topographical overlay. This allows us to identify the locations of each different type of patterned ground, establish their spatial relationships, and characterize any elevation, longitudinal or latitudinal controls on different types of polygon formation. This will help characterize the range of occurrence of the different morphologies of patterned ground and any physical controls on the development of these morphologies.

Impact structures offer particularly valuable records of the evolution of a planet s climate and landscape through time. The state of exposure and preservation of impact structures and their intracrater fill provide clues to the nature, timing, and intensity of the processes that have modified the craters since their formation. Modifying processes include weathering, erosion, mantling, and infilling. In this study, we compare the modification of Haughton through time with that of impact craters in the same size class on Mars. We derive upper limits for time-integrated denudation rates on Mars during and since the Late Noachian. These rates are significantly lower than previously published and provide important constraints for Mars climate evolution.

When the diameters of individual particles are in the range of 100 nm or less, the surface energy contribution to the free energy modifies phase stability. This results in stabilization of polymorphs not normally encountered in the macrocrystal domain. These phases potentially have very different surface-site geometries, adsorptive properties, and growth mechanisms, and exhibit size-dependent kinetic behavior. Thus nanophases dramatically modify the physical and chemical properties of soils and sediments. In a more general sense, the characteristics of nanocrystals are of intense technological interest because small particle size confers novel chemical, optical, and electronic properties. Thus, nanocrystalline materials are finding applications as catalytic substrates, gas phase separation materials, and even more importantly in the field of medicine. This is an opportune time for mineral physicists working on nanocrystalline materials to develop collaborative efforts with materials scientists, chemists, and others working on nanophase materials of

389 technological interest (e.g., for magnetic memories). Our objective in this study was to synthesize submicron (\h200 nm) magnetite and to study their thermal and particle size properties.

20050170977 Massachusetts Inst. of Tech., Cambridge, MA, USA Europa’s Porous Ice Rheology and Implications for Ice-penetrating Radar Scattering Loss Lee, Sunwoong; Pappalardo, Robert T.; Makris, Nicholas C.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 12; [2005]; 1 pp.; In English; See also 20050170942; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document It has been proposed that Europa s potential subsurface ocean could be detected by ice-penetrating radar (Chyba et al. 1998; Moore 2000). The main challenge to radar sounding on Europa lies in accrued absorption due to warm or dirty ice (Chyba et al. 1998; Moore 2000), and scattering due to ice surface roughness and volume inhomogeneities (Greeley et al. 2004). Both Earth-based radar-wave backscattering data (Black et al. 2001) and extremely low cycloidal crack initiation strength (Hoppa et al. 1999) show that the ice shell may be highly porous. Furthermore, high resolution surface images from the Galileo mission shows that it may also be highly fractured. These inhomogeneities together with surface roughness will lead to scattering losses, the significance of which need to be assessed. We show that the size of vacuous pores or brine pockets in Europa s ice shell are likely very small compared to ice-penetrating radar wavelength, based on the data by Black et al. (2001) and terrestrial ice rheology model for fracture strength (Weeks and Ackley 1982). This has the significant implication that porosity-induced scattering should not be significant. This substantially differs from what has been predicted by Eluszkiewicz (2004), who arbitrarily assumed meter-scale spherical pores. We show that this overestimation of pore size leads to a corresponding overestimation of transmission loss due to scattering by orders of magnitude.

It consists in two circular calderas, situated on a volcanic shield and was probably created by episodes of pyroclastic volcanism during the late Noachian period [1]. In addition to these volcanic landforms, the region also displays interesting features indicative of interstitial ice such as patterned ground (polygonal features), and sublimation landforms. The most interesting landform consists of smooth discontinuous layers of apparently thin material. This layer is eroded in scallops and mesa, very similar to the Swiss cheese features of the South Polar Regions. We use a combination of MOLA altimetry, MOC, Themis and TES data in order to map this region and study the formation and evolution of these sublimation landforms.

It is possible to determine if this process is occurring by detecting electromagnetic waves at the gyrofrequency of water group ions. If the energy the particle gains in this pick-up process is sufficiently great, the picked up ions will generate ion cyclotron waves. and both observed intervals of such waves associated with water group ions during their passes through Saturn s E-ring. Presently the magnetometer onboard the Cassini spacecraft is also seeing water group ion cyclotron oscillations. The Cassini data allow the spatial and temporal behavior of the waves to be mapped in ways not possible during the previous flybys. Analyses of these waves allow us to study the rate

390 of mass loading and its latitudinal and local time variation. In conjunction with previous data, we can then determine the variation as the inclination of the ring to the Sun changes, in accordance with Saturn’s seasons. These waves may be the clue to how Saturn powers its magnetosphere as the newly born ions could be the driver for the radial motion of the plasma and to how the E-ring may play the equivalent role to that of Io in the jovian magnetosphere.

Not so obvious is how this combinatorial chemistry occurred; or how the overall process of chemical self-organization was functionally supported at each stage of its occurrence on an earlier, much wetter Mars. Yet just as the biochemistry of contemporary organisms can be viewed as a fossil record of biogenesis, so the geochemical physics of the contemporary Earth and Mars is an indicator of the self-organizing dynamic processes underlying prebiotic chemistry. Independent of chemical details, the universalities of chemical physics strongly suggest that past Martian weather cycles offered functional support for organic chemical self-organization, the assumed predecessor to an independent origin of life.

Local organic weather cycles inevitably form when the Rayleigh-Taylor instability in water is metastabilized by simple organic compounds, in turn leading to a complex set of mutually transforming phase transitions. In so doing these early Martian weather cycles would have also provided functional support for organic chemical self-organization, the assumed predecessor to an independent ‘origin’ of Martian life. The existence of a significant subset of these cycles (both weather and organic self-organization) is likely even if surface waters were of such limited distribution as short time-scale lakes and intermittent turbulent flows. One of a number of potential artifacts of these processes is the possibility that Martian blueberries

391 have nucleated around organic cores, similar to the terrestrial concretions that appear to be their closest terrestrial analog. Derived from text Mars (Planet); Mars Environment; Cycles; Hydrology; Fruits; Surface Water; Phase Transformations

Several viable aqueous mechanisms by which channel and valley features on Mars may have formed have been proposed, ranging from surface runoff under relatively warm and wet conditions to sapping processes under cold and dry conditions [e.g., 1,4-9]. These mechanisms have the potential to account for the nature of a wide spectrum of channel types on Mars, but uncertainties remain regarding even the most basic Martian channel-formation processes, and no mechanism or set of mechanisms has yet emerged as a clear means by which channels and valley systems can be confidently said to have formed.

20050170989 NASA Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA, USA, Observatoire de Paris, France A GCM Recent History of Northern Martian Polar Layered Deposits: Contribution from Past Equatorial Ice Reservoirs Levrard, B.; Laskar, J.; Montmessin, F.; Forget, F.; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 12; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050170942; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Polar layered deposits are exposed in the walls of the troughs cutting the north polar cap of Mars. They consist of alternating ice and dust layers or layers of an ice-dust mixture with varying proportions and are found throughout the cap. Layers thickness ranges from meters to several tens of meters with an approximately 30 meter dominant wavelength. Although their formation processes is not known, they are presumed to reflect changes in ice and dust stability over orbital and axial variations. Intensive 3-D LMD GCM simulations of the martian water cycle have been thus performed to determine the annual rates of exchange of surface ice between the northern cap and tropical areas for a wide range of obliquity and orbital parameters values.These rates have been employed to reconstruct an history of the northern cap and test simple models of dust-ice layers formation over the last 10 Ma orbital variations. We use the 3-D water cycle model simulated by the 3-D LMD GCM with an intermediate grid resolution (7.5 longitude x 5.625 latitude) and 25 vertical levels. The dust opacity is constant and set to 0,15. No exchange of ice with regolith is allowed. The evolution of the northern cap over obliquity and orbital changes (eccentricity, Longitude of perihelion) has been recently described with this model. High summer insolation favors transfer of ice from the northern pole to the Tharsis and Olympus Montes, while at low obliquity, unstable equatorial ice is redeposited in high-latitude and polar areas of both hemisphere. The disappearance of the equatorial ice reservoir leads to a poleward recession of icy high latitude reservoirs, providing an additional source for the cap accumulation during each obliquity or orbital cycle. Furthering the efforts, a quantitative evolution of ice reservoirs is here investigated for various astronomical conditions.

To a large degree, the solar system is surprisingly homogeneous isotopically, indicating very efficient mixing of the material that formed the solar system out of the molecular cloud. Exceptions are isotopic anomalies due to in situ effects such as radioactive decay and particle irradiation. Therefore, isotopic anomalies indicating incomplete homogenization are of great importance for understanding the processes and their timing in the early solar system. Isotopic anomalies have been known

392 for many years for noble gases, O, Ti, Cr, Zr, Sm, Nd and Ba. Virtually every Ca-Al-rich refractory inclusion (CAI) from the Allende meteorite carries Ti isotopic anomalies. Titanium isotopic anomalies were also detected in whole rock samples and chondrules of some carbonaceous chondrites. Besides being of a general interest, Ti isotopes may also serve as an indicator of possible irradiation processes in the early solar system. For example, assuming that some of the short-lived radionuclides alive in the early solar system have been produced by particle irradiation, a collateral shift in Ti-48/Ti-47 of a few epsilon would be expected, where 1 epsilon is the deviation in parts/104 from the standard. Our primary purpose of this work is two-fold: 1) to determine the Ti isotopic composition in various solar system objects and search for Ti-48/Ti-47 anomalies in early refractory condensates to prove or reject the hypothesis that some of the short lived radionuclides have been produced by particle irradiation. 2) to add Ti to the list of elements measured via high resolution MC-ICPMS, which is an experimental challenge due to various plasma specific interferences.

The density of Ceres calculated from the most recent size measurement indicates a large water fraction close to that of the solar system environment in early formation stages. However, because of the difficulty in interpreting its reflectance spectrum, and the lack of any spectral match with available meteorite samples, little is known about it. To resolve its surface, and to support NASA s Dawn Discovery mission, which will orbit Ceres starting in 2015 for eleven months, we observed Ceres with HST High Resolution Channel of the Advanced Camera for Surveys (HRC/ACS) for more than one rotation of Ceres.

However, calibration of XRS data depends critically on knowledge of the incident solar spectrum, which varies greatly on time scales of seconds to minutes. Unfortunately, the gas solar monitor

393 carried by NEAR was inadequately calibrated prior to launch. The previously published XRS results were based partly on broadband measurements by the Earthorbiting GOES8 (Geostationary Operational Environmental Satellites) Xray detectors and partly on a preliminary solar monitor calibration carried out by the present authors. The new solar monitor calibration is based on a more recent set of physical models of the solar spectrum at various temperatures, an improved fitting procedure, analysis of a large number of flight spectra, and comparison with concurrent data from the GOES Xray detectors. In addition, the new analysis includes data from three solar flares not considered in earlier papers.

Expanding on the short answer ‘It’s the chemistry of the rock’, students are introduced to the research that reveals the true identities of the rocks. Since few high school or beginning college students have the opportunity to participate in this level of research, a slide presentation introduces them to the labs, samples, and people involved with the research.

Simple reactions involving water and rock at low temperatures (as low as 0 C) are sources of geochemical energy that are able to support metabolism for potential martian microbes. Quantifying the amount of energy produced from these low temperature water-rock reactions on Mars allows us to determine how much biomass potentially could have existed and what environments might have been most conducive to the existence of an ecosystem.

Among the major constituents in CAIs, melilite and anorthite are especially susceptible to isotopic disturbance through interactions with surrounding minerals and mineral alteration during thermal processing. As a consequence, the original isotope signals and implied initial (26)Al/(27)Al ratios are not necessarily preserved. Due to the rarity of unaltered melilite in most Allende inclusions, supra-canonical (26)Al/(27)Al initial ratios (approx. 6 to 7 x 10(exp -5)) may be difficult to find. Analyzing whole inclusions, Bizzarro et al. suggested all CAIs have a single canonical ratio of 5.2 x 10(exp -5) and formed contemporaneously within the first 50,000 years of the solar system, in contrast to previous studies. Here we present data for two inclusions from Allende that exhibit contrasting levels of preservation of initial (26)Al/(27)Al signals.

To start such analysis we have used observations of neutron albedo of Mars obtained by High Energy Neutron detector (HEND) mounted onboard Mars Odyssey spacecraft. The high latitude northern and southern regions of Mars are affected by global redistribution of atmospheric CO2 which resulted in 25% of atmospheric mass condensed on martian surface of these regions during winter period of time. The seasonal deposit is formed starting from 60N/60S latitudes and achieve its maximal thickness about 1 m at latitudes close to martian poles. Changes of CO2 deposit thickness is the reason for significant variations of neutron flux above martian poles from summer to winter seasons because CO2 frost effectively hides upper water rich surface layers from the orbit observations in neutrons and gamma-rays. This effect was used to estimate column density of CO2 deposit at different latitudes on North and South of Mars and reconstruct multidimensional model of CO2 deposit showing how snow depth varies as function of latitude, longitude and time. In this presentation we tried to make a next step in our study of martian seasonal CO2 cycle and look for similarities and differences between two successive martian years.

If the seismic activity of Venus is unknown, however, in contrary to Mars, Moon and Mercury, the surface of Venus exhibits few impact craters. Most Venusian impact craters appear unmodified by any weathering process. This lack of crater is interpreted as the indication for a period of catastrophic resurfacing by volcanism between 200 Myrs and 700 Myrs. Such an activity places Venus as the most recently active terrestrial planet after the Earth. We can imagine therefore a tectonic on Venus able to generate large quakes, of magnitude greater than 6. How however to perform such seismic measurement on a Planet were the surface temperature make the survival of any lander so difficult?

However, such analyses do not take full advantage of the quantitative information contained within the images. Analysis of the backscatter coefficient allows a much more rigorous statistical comparison between mapped units, permitting first order selfsimilarity tests of geographically separated materials assigned identical geomorphological labels. Such analyses cannot be performed directly on pixel (DN) values from Magellan backscatter images, because the pixels are scaled to the Muhleman law for radar echoes on Venus and are not corrected for latitudinal variations in incidence angle. Therefore, DN values must be converted based on pixel latitude back to their backscatter coefficient values before accurate statistical analysis can occur. Here we present a method for performing the conversions and analysis of Magellan backscatter data using commonly available ArcGIS software and illustrate the advantages of the process for geological mapping.

The exact link, if any, is not understood. They may have formed from melting within one or more enstatite chondrite parent bodies. Description of NWA 2736: One complete stone weighing 171.51 grams was recovered from the Sahara Desert by nomads sometime before September 2004. It was completely covered with fusion crust and desert varnish. This stone is severely weathered, with caramel brown coloration throughout and calcite veins that extend into the interior of the sample. Mineral analyses were performed and elemental x-ray maps were obtained with a CAMECA SX-50 electron microprobe at the Lunar and Planetary Laboratory at the University of Arizona. The relatively high modal abundance of albitic plagioclase, presence of euhedral graphite, depletion of troilite, and occurrence of pervasive kamacite veins (some with daubreelite) all indicate that NWA 2736 has a complex history and may sample a new region of the aubrite parent body. A discussion and analysis on the overall texture of NWA 2736 is presented. Derived from text Graphite; Achondrites; Enstatite; Meteoritic Composition; Mineralogy

This large impact feature almost certainly exposes lunar material with very deep origin, almost certainly the lower crust and possibly the lunar mantle. The importance of this feature in understanding the Moon and by inference the terrestrial planets was underscored by the recommendation by the National Research Council that returning a sample from this basin be a high priority for NASA solar system exploration. The proposed Moonrise SPA sample return mission (Michael Duke, Principal Investigator) is one of two finalists in the NASA New Frontiers mission, so a SPA sample return in the relatively near future is a strong possibility. Selection of the sample sites for this mission will likely be based on data currently in hand, and it has already been argued that such data are adequate to make such selections. Recently we developed a methodology to extract quantitatively the major mineralogy and chemistry from Clementine reflectance spectra of the moon. In this paper,

396 we apply this method to the SPA basin to examine the distribution of mineralogically and chemically defined units. Author (revised) Mineralogy; Structural Basins; Moon; Geochemistry; Topography

We reconstructed a synthesis of an evolutionary path of regions (belts) in the chondritic parent body arranging the chondritic set members according to the degree of thermal metamorphism and the deduced crust and core region set members after the differentiation of the parent body. We discuss the extraordinary possibility of the synthetic overview of the thermal evolution of the chondritic parent body by this NIPR Antarctic meteorite set which also has basic importance in space science and planetary materials education. The synthesis on the basis of the NIPR set can be divided into two main periods. First one is the metamorphism in the parent body which is slowly heated up by the short living radionuclidesThis process results in an onion-layered body with higher temperatures in the core regions and lower temperatures at the margin of the body. The second period is the differentiation when partial melting of metallic and somewhat later the basaltic assemblages results in migration and volcanism in the chondritic parent body.

Of the six spectral bands IRTM operated, the only spectral band with acceptable resolution below 170 K was at 20 microns (here after known as the T20 band). It was believed at one time that CO2 depletion over the winter pole and the subsequent enhancement of non-condensable gases was the cause for this low brightness temperature phenomenon. Even though this has been proven to no longer be true, it is still intriguing to ponder that non-condensable gases, such as Ar and N2, can accumulate over the winter pole to values larger than the global mean. Both the Neutron Spectrometer and the Gamma Subsystem on the Mars Odyssey Gamma Ray Spectrometer instrument suite have measured this enhancement.

Solar wind ions were captured in the surface of the Mo. Our objective is the measurement of long-lived radionuclides, such as Be-10, Al-26, Cl-36, and Mn-53, and short-lived radionuclides, such as Na-22 and Mn-54, in the captured sample of solar wind. The expected flux of these nuclides in the solar wind is 100 atom/sq cm yr or less. The hard landing of the SRC (Sample Return

In complex craters, commonly recognized morphologic features are crater rim, zone of terracing, central peaks and/or peak rings. At particularly large craters an additional morphology of the multi-ring basin is distinguished by having additional topographically asymmetric scarps vs. the symmetric profiles of peak rings. The slump widths between the multi-ring basin scarps are also relatively broad and continuous compared to those found in typical terrace zones. We distinguish an additional morphologic feature, a second type of peak ring that occurs near the edge of a crater typically superposed on the lower part of the terraced zone - the Peripheral Peak Ring.

Published results from the five lander missions lead to the following conclusions: 1) The soil appears to be globally mixed and basaltic with only small local variations in chemistry. Relative to martian basaltic meteorites and Gusev rocks the soils are depleted in the fluid-mobile element calcium, but only slightly enriched to somewhat depleted in iron oxide. 2) The presence of olivine in the soils based on M ssbauer data argues that the soil is only partly weathered and is more akin to a lunar regolith than a terrestrial soil. 3) The presence of bromine along with sulfur and chlorine in the soils is consistent with addition of a mobile element component to the soil.

Until recently, the identification of presolar silicate grains in extraterrestrial materials proved difficult due in part to their destruction by parent body processes, requiring analysis of very primitive samples, and to the experimental challenge presented by their submicron diameters and the predominance of grains of solar-system origin. Presolar silicate grains were first identified in anhydrous interplanetary dust particles (IDPs), and subsequently in meteorites. By far the largest number of presolar silicates in meteorites has been found in the very primitive carbonaceous chondrite Acfer 094. Six additional grains have been found in Semarkona and Bishunpur, and NWA 530. Derived from text Carbonaceous Chondrites; Silicates; Solar System; Stellar Envelopes

The GCMS was part of the instrument complement on the probe to measure in situ the chemical composition of the atmosphere during the probe descent and to support the Aerosol Collector Pyrolyzer (ACP) experiment by serving as detector for the pyrolization products. The GCMS collected data from an altitude of 146 km to ground impact for a time interval of 2hours and 37minutes. The Probe and the GCMS survived the ground impact and collected data for 1hour and 9 minutes on the surface in the near surface environment until signal loss by the orbiter. The major constituents of the lower atmosphere were found to be N2 and CH4. The methane-mixing ratio was found to increase below the turbopause, about 35 km altitude, monotonically toward the surface to levels near saturation. After surface impact a steep increase of the mixing ratio was observed suggesting evaporation of surface condensed methane due to heating by the GCMS sample inlet heater. Other constituents were found to be in very low concentrations, below ppm levels. The presence of Argon 40 was confirmed. The results for the other noble gases are still being evaluated. Other hydrocarbons and nitriles were also observed and quantitative evaluation is in progress. Preliminary ratios for the major carbon and nitrogen isotopes were computed from methane and molecular nitrogen measurements. The instrument collected 5634 mass spectra during descent and 2692 spectra on the ground over a range of m/z from 2 to 141. Eight gas chromatograph samples were taken during the descent and two on the ground.

This hypothesis is based on observed morphologies, that are similar to morphologies in terrestrial formerly glaciated environments. An interesting aspect in this region is the relatively young age of the deposits, derived from the small amount of impact craters. The Elysium region is thought to be an area associated with the youngest volcanic, fluvial and glacial activity seen so far on Mars. The relevant geological units include Aeolis (A), the Plains (CP) and the (MFF). Parts of the CP are situated at the end of the geological young Athabasca Valles outflow channel and have been previously interpreted as either flood lava or outflow channel deposits.

These studies conducted on the least thermally metamorphosed and aqueously altered chondrites. In this study, in situ search for presolar grains in Murchison CM2 chondrite were conducted. Because Murchison has undergone aqueous alteration, the comparison between the abundances of presolar silicates and carbonaceous grains allow us to look at the effects of aqueous alteration processes on presolar grain destruction.

401 Chondritic interplanetary dust particles (IDPs) are subdivided into (1) particles that form highly porous aggregates (chondritic porous ‘CP’ IDPs), and (2) smooth particles (‘CS’ IDPs). Infrared (IR) spectroscopy has been a valuable tool for non-destructively determining the bulk mineralogy of IDPs. Most IDPs fall within three distinct IR groups: (1) olivine-rich particles, (2) pyroxene-rich particles, and (3) phyllosilicate-rich particles. From the IR studies, IDPs dominated by anhydrous minerals tend to be fine grained (CP), while phyllosilicate-rich IDPs are mostly CS. CP IDPs have been linked to cometary sources based on their compositions, spectral properties, and atmospheric entry velocities. Since no spectral signatures of hydrated minerals have been detected in comets, CS IDPs are thought to derive from primitive asteroids. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) studies have revealed that the mineralogical distinctions between CP and CS IDPs are not always clear. Previous investigators have reported trace amounts of hydrous minerals in dominantly anhydrous particles. A better understanding of these particles will help to elucidate whether there is a genetic relationship between anhydrous and hydrated IDPs, provide insight into the earliest stages of aqueous alteration of primitive materials, and may help to determine whether comets have experienced any aqueous processing. Here we report a combined TEM and isotopic imaging study of an unusual anhydrous IDP with hydrated phases. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

With continued cooling, corundum is predicted to react with the nebular gas to form hibonite. Corundum-bearing CAIs are extremely rare: only seven occurrences have previously been reported in detail, three in the CM carbonaceous chondrite Murchison, one in the CM chondrite Murray, two in the ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Adelaide, and one in the ungrouped carbonaceous chondrite Acfer. Some of these corundum grains are considered to be direct condensates from the solar nebular gas, whereas others may have been melted after condensation. Condensation processes in the solar nebula may be elucidated from detailed studies of corundum-hibonite grains. Ten small solar corundum grains (500 nm to 5 micron) have been previously reported in the LL3.1 unequilibrated ordinate chondrite Krymka, but their petrographic information was not provided. Here we report textural observations, chemical compositions, and oxygen isotopic compositions of corundum and corundum-hibonite grains in Acfer 094. Acfer 094 is one of the most primitive chondrites that contain high abundance of presolar grains in the fine-grained matrix. Additional information is included in the original extended abstract.

20050172154 Texas Univ., Austin, TX, USA Spatial Extent of a Deep Moonquake Nest: A Preliminary Report of Reexamination Nakamura, Yosio; Lunar and Planetary Science XXXVI, Part 14; [2005]; 2 pp.; In English; See also 20050172131 Contract(s)/Grant(s): NNG04GG62G; Copyright; Avail: CASI; A01, Hardcopy; Available from CASI on CD-ROM only as part of the entire parent document Deep moonquakes, occurring at depths about halfway to the center of the Moon, were discovered during the Apollo lunar landing missions, 1969-1972. Their near-monthly occurrence with nearly identical waveforms at any given seismic station suggests that they are strongly influenced by tides, caused by the Earth and the Sun, acting on certain limited regions of the deep lunar interior. However, much about them is unknown, why they are restricted to certain depths and to limited source regions (nests), and what they tell us about the nature of the material and dynamics of the interior of the Moon. A piece of information helpful to decipher their true nature is the spatial extent and distribution of their hypocenters. The occurrence of nearly identical waveforms suggests groups of hypocenters appear in close proximity to one another, but can we tell how closely they are located and how they are distributed? The Apollo PSE (Passive Seismic Experiment) data from all stations of the seismic network were received in real time at a common receiving station on Earth in digital form. This provided extremely high inter-station timing accuracy not achievable for most earthquake data on Earth at that time. We took advantage of this to compute relative locations of waveform-matched events, and concluded that deep moonquake foci in the A1 moonquake nest were concentrated on a nearly horizontal plane of less than 1 km in diameter. This earlier study was based on deep moonquake events visually identified on seismograms. A recent reanalysis of earlier unidentified seismic events fully

402 utilizing the high capability of present-day computers expanded the list of positively identified deep moonquakes by more than a factor of five. The new list contains many events that are not visually matched in waveforms, yet correlated at a significant level when cross-correlated with a computer. Thus it became imperative to reexamine the spatial distribution of deep moonquake hypocenters including the newly identified events.

They are unique among achondrites in containing relatively a large amount of primordial noble gases and carbon occurring as graphite and diamond. The primordial noble gases are thought to be exclusively contained in carbon minerals. It has been a problem to reconcile the primordial natures as chondritic abundances of noble gases to igneous or metamorphic natures as coarse-grained recrystallized olivine and pyroxenes. To resolve the problem and give a constraint to the petrogenesis of ureilites it may be important to know the form and the mode of occurrence of carbon minerals in ureilites. So far, carbon minerals are thought to be interstitial material, often referred to as matrix or vein material together with metal, sulfide and minor fine-grained silicates. Recently, large, mm-sized, euhedral graphite crystals were found in some ureilites and diamond in ureilites was shown to have formed from well-crystallized graphite by shock at the time when the ureilite parent body or bodies broke up. In this study, polished thin sections (PTSs) of fifteen Antarctic ureilites having variable olivine-core mg# (Mg/(Mg + Fe) molar%) were observed by an optical microscope in reflected light and morphologies and modal abundances of graphite were analyzed in order to know the petrogenesis of ureilites.

The rocks consist of Al-rich orthopyroxene, Mg, Al-rich spinel, plagioclase and olivine. Based on experimental data and thermodynamic analysis, the spinel cataclasites were interpreted as deep-seated lunar crustal rocks which equilibrated at depths of more than 12 km or even in the uppermost lunar mantle. A spinel cataclasite clast has been recently documented in the lunar meteorite Dhofar 310. It suggests that lunar meteorites could contain a certain portion of deep-seated lunar crustal material.

403 but centered on the northwest flank. Mouginis-Mark et al. suggested that the large albedo feature on the northwest flank of Hecates Tholus is indicative of pyroclastic deposits, which could include a significant source for fine-grained particles amenable for wind transport. The streaks of interest are difficult to identify in most visible-band images but are prominent in the nighttime infrared THEMIS images. Their orientation is consistent with modeled nighttime winds, in contrast to the general assumption that most aeolian activity occurs in the afternoon when surface heating is at a maximum for the day.

These are petrographically similar to some vitrophyric Apollo 14 high-Al basalts, which are found as clasts in impact breccias. The high-Al basalt clasts have been interpreted as being pristine basalts or as impact melts. It has been shown, through SIMS analyses of olivine phenocrysts, that the whole-rock compositions of the high-Al basalts are not a product of short-range unmixing. These studies also suggested that multiple sources and KREEP assimilation were involved, but could not rule out an impact origin for the Apollo 14 high-Al basalt clasts. The purpose of this study is to compare the compositions of olivine phenocrysts in the high-Al basalts with those in known impact melts, the olivine vitrophyres. If the trace element signatures are similar, it would be reasonable to assume that the Apollo 14 high-Al basalts are, in fact, impact melts.

Neal noted that some of the picritic glass compositions contained signatures consistent with garnet being retained in the source regions after melt removal. Neal & Shearer undertook a preliminary study of a variety of volcanic glass beads (VLT-High-Ti) concentrating on the garnet compatible elements Sc, Y, and Yb, as well as the garnet incompatible elements Zr, Nb, Ce, and Sm. The results indicated that the garnet signatures were present in high-Ti glasses.

If present, the concentration and properties of the ice bearing regolith will have great implications for future exploration of the Moon and could be a rich scientific resource to help understand processes on other icy bodies such as comets and the Galilean satellites. The lunar poles harbor a microenvironment that possess conditions utterly unlike those of the lunar equator, where Apollo samples came from. These conditions may allow in situ production of organics on the Moon from indigenous inorganic material. If this is the case, the Moon may allow field testing of models of inorganic synthesis which have been invoked for many surfaces in the solar system, and even interstellar clouds. It is important to fully understand the environment of the permanently shadowed regions to maximize the potential of future experiments and missions. We review what is known and speculated about the surface in the unique environment in permanently shadowed regions on the Moon. Mercury exhibits an even stronger signal of water ice at its poles, which raises other questions about

405 the source of such water, and why it is so much larger than the lunar signal. Derived from text Polar Regions; Regolith; Lunar Surface; Interstellar Matter

The NLR shape model employed a least-squares adjustment technique developed for MOLA. Owing to the use of methods developed for spherical bodies, this adjustment was only partially successful and further substantial improvements could be made to the NLR dataset, as we demonstrate in this paper. Improved solutions both for asteroid-wide topography and NEAR’s orbit locations may enhance our current views on the geodesy and thereby the internal properties of this asteroid. In addition, well-registered topographic maps would reveal much about the surface processes acting on 433 Eros. This poster will illustrate the benefits of incorporating selected image sequence constraints into a Cartesian reformulation of the NLR altimetric crossover solution.

We are studying terrestrial craters of various sizes in different environments to better understand aqueous alteration and chemical transport processes. The Lonar crater in India (1.8 km diameter) is particularly interesting being the only impact crater in basalt. In January of 2004, during fieldwork in the ejecta blanket around the rim of the Lonar crater we discovered alteration zones not previously described at this crater. The alteration of the ejecta blanket could represent evidence of localized hydrothermal activity. Such activity is consistent with the presence of large amounts of impact melt in the ejecta blanket. Map of one area on the north rim of the crater containing highly altered zones at least 3 m deep is shown. Derived from text Clays; India; Ejecta; Lunar Craters; Aqueous Solutions

The main aim of the mission is to acquire and verify the technology required for a samplereturn mission [1]. This mission will make it possible to explore the mysteries of the planet-forming substance, temperature and pressure in early solar system, or evolution with asteroid collision. Hayabusa will arrive at the target asteroid (25143) Itokawa in September of 2005. It will bring back a sample from its surface. Observation phase consists of seven sections: cruising phase (CP), approach phase (AP), gate position (GP), home position (HP), extended observational Transition (XT), high phase angle observation (XO), and terminator observation (TO). Image for shape modeling will be taken in the gate position. In addition, we intend to get images distinguish more detailed geologic context in XO and TO. The purpose of the development of the visualization tool is to project some data on an irregular shaped model. The spacecraft will be at risk for failure if it touches down on rough place. 3D map will be required to recommend the safe place to touch down on the surface and pick up some samples. The goal of this study is to develop a tool to project some data on an irregular shaped model. As a result, the tool would contribute to design operating plans of Hayabusa. Footprint, calculated using SPICE toolkit [2], gives us the information of the border of the field of view of an instrument projected onto a surface. To calculate the footprint, relative position information will be used as an input data. It is appropriate to use IDL (Interactive Data Language) [3] [4] to develop such a visualization tool.

The analysis of the image data taken over the first half year of the mission shows that calderas on five major volcanoes in the Tharsis and Elysium regions have undergone repeated activation and resurfacing during the last 20% of Martian history, with caldera floors as young as 100 Ma, and flank eruptions as young as 2 Ma. The results conferm that the edi. ces are constructed over billions of years and are characterized by episodically repeated phases of activity continuing almost to the present and suggesting the volcanoes are potentially still active today. It appears that the more recent volcanic activity on both the Tharsis and Elysium volcanoes clustered around 100-200 Ma ago, practically coinciding with radiometric ages of several Martian meteorites.

Inferences made from the auto-reduction behavior of the orange glass endorse the oxidation of graphite as the principal gas generating mechanism. Due to the low oxygen fugacity range of the lunar interior (IW +0.2 to -2.5), any carbon in the lunar interior would be stable in its reduced state, as graphite. Magma ascending through the lunar interior, due to buoyancy differences, may entrain graphite and carry it to shallower depths. Theoretical calculations on the Graphite-C-O (GCO) phase equilibria show strong pressure dependence. deduced that at a critical pressure in the lunar interior the oxygen fugacity of ascending magma will eventually intersect an isothermal surface in fO2-P space where graphite will be in equilibrium with a CO-CO2 gas mixture. When the orange glass magma ascends to this critical pressure, graphite

407 suspended in the magma would oxidize, producing a gas-phase that would be in equilibrium with graphite, for given pressure. Derived from text Volcanology; Pressure Dependence; Graphite; Lunar Maria; Carbon; Oxidation

If this interpretation is correct, the crystallization ages of these pre-Nectarian impact melt breccias may provide a further test of the cataclysm hypothesis.

We propose that the examination of these terrestrial components would serve as unique tracer of the early Earth evolution. In this paper we focus our discussion mainly on the case of the geomagnetic field (GMF). In the present Earth, there is little interaction between the SW and ionospheric constituents due to the shielding effect of GMF.

Numerous origins for these pit craters, as well as their role in the structural and geologic evolution of Valles Marineris, have been proposed based on photogeologic interpretations of satellite imagery. Models of pit crater formation on Mars commonly envisage an origin through stopping and collapse of surficial material into subsurface voids that are created by mode I opening displacements along tension fractures [1,2], igneous dikes [3,4], or dilational normal faults [5,6]. In this abstract, we evaluate the relative contributions of causative normal faulting and dike intrusion to the

409 MOLA-based topography of pit crater chains at Valles Marineris. Our analysis reveals a dichotomy in causative processes across Valles Marineris. The topography of pit crater chains are consistent with origins by causative normal faulting as well as dike intrusion to the north of the Ius-Melas-Coprates chasmata, while causative normal faulting is the sole process identified to the south of this chasmata (Fig. 1).

Some previous studies employed laser irradiation in order to create hot and dense vapor clouds substituting for hypervelocity impact experiments [e.g., 2, 3, 4]. Although both laser irradiation experiments and model calculation have been carried out [e.g., 2], the quenching temperature of chemical reactions in large vapor clouds is lower than that in a laboratory scale. Thus we need to know the reaction rate in order to establish the size scaling law of the final chemical composition in vapor clouds. Prediction based on such chemical reaction rate is much more reliable than a simple extrapolation. However, experimental data at the temperatures between normal temperatures and several thousand kelvin is relatively poor. Nevertheless, no method to estimate the chemical reaction rate in vapor clouds has been established yet. In this study, we propose an experimental method to estimate the chemical reaction rate in vapor clouds. We also apply it to the redox reactions of sulfur oxides.

To understand mineral abundance and mineral compositional distribution of the lunar surface from the remote sensing data using MI and SP we need precise understanding of correlation between mineral composition and spectral reflectance. One of the most important procedures for the precise correction and calibration of remote sensing data is a selection and understanding of a suitable optical standard site.

The XRS will map major elemental composition of lunar surface with less than 20km in spatial resolution and 90% surface coverage except for polar region. The XRS has been designed to improve energy resolution and detection efficiency at soft x-rays by adopting new technologies such as X-ray CCD and ultra-thin beryllium window. The current status of the instrumental development is also described. As was proven during the Apollo 15 and 16 missions, major elemental composition can be determined through remote XRF method for atmosphere-free planetary surfaces. Solar X-rays irradiate planetary surface to excite each atom of the uppermost surface materials. Immediately those atoms settle to the ground state and X-rays characteristic of major elements are illuminated off the surface. However, intensity and spectral profiles of solar X-rays varies time to time, which affects those of XRF off the planetary surfaces as well. Therefore major elemental composition can be mapped from the orbiting altitude with remote XRF spectrometry, together with concurrent monitoring of solar X-rays.

Based on the assumption that these Tharsis-radial graben and pit crater chains are underlain by dikes, geodynamic models of lithospheric uplift have been proposed to account for the stress state required for Tharsis-radial dike propagation [4] and the attendant magma fluxes have been estimated [2]. In this abstract, we test the fundamental assumption that Tharsis-radial pit crater chains are underlain by igneous dikes by examining Phlegethon, Acheron and Tractus Catenae on the southeast flank of Alba Patera. Following [5] we compare MOLA-based topography against standard numerical model predictions of surface deformation above buried and surface-breaking dikes and normal faults. We find that these pit crater chains have local cross-strike topographies that are consistent with origins by either dike intrusion, by normal faulting, or by a mixed-mode of dike intrusion and normal faulting, with the causative tendencies changing with position along strike of each pit (Fig. 1).

However, evaluation on natural materials that are susceptible to heat has hardly been done before. Since aerogel is an excellent thermal insulator, the kinetic energy of an impacting particle at hypervelocity regimes will be converted mainly to heat and may alter its own composition. So far we have been performing hypervelocity impact experiments at 2-4 km/s, firing micrometeoroid analog materials into aerogel. Here we report the results of the samples shot at 6 km/s, the flyby speed of the spacecraft with its target comet Wild 2.

For example, cut-off meanders, point-bars, and deltas are frequently observed on radar images. These morphologic features imply that canali may have formed by low viscosity lava with high discharge rate. These lavas are likely to have chemical composition such as carbonatite, sulfur, and mafic or ultramafic lavas. Derived from text Venus (Planet); Chemical Composition; Canals

For trace element isotopic analyses, this has been supplemented by dedicated methods such as thermal ionization mass spectrometry (TIMS), noble gas mass spectrometry and, for the study of heavy trace elements in individual grains, resonance ionization mass spectrometry (RIMS). SIMS has been used also in studying trace element patterns of SiC grains, and the Nano-SIMS can map elemental and isotopic abundances with a lateral resolution better than 100 nm.

One way seems to be establishing geoelectrical markers of specific subsurface layers

412 that will help us getting certainty structure of Mars subsurface layers as the result of direct measurements from Mars surface or from the base satellite low-frequency radar for regional distribution of martian cryolitozone. Basing on established markers and oreols more accurate geoelectrical structure measurements of frozen subsurface structure can be done. Solving one of previously mentioned tasks a comprehensive expedition near Tambov area have been made. Finding similar geoelectrical markers reference measurements using TDEM method have been done. These allow us building spatial geoelectrical structure using given approach. These results shows necessity of further experimental and methodical research studies on Mars analog field sites to find out adequate experiment strategy on Mars surface.

The discovery of large (16)O excesses in refractory inclusions was originally ascribed to a late-stage nucleosynthetic input where short-lived (26)Al and (50)Ti were brought in close to the formation of the solar system. However, nonlinear isotope fractionation was discovered in our own atmosphere leading to an attempt to model the (16)O anomaly in refractory inclusions as the result of high temperature processing in the solar nebula. More recently, the oxygen isotope variability has been ascribed to photochemical processing of CO in the solar system or inheritance from the molecular cloud where photochemical reactions cause variations in (16)O abundance between gaseous and solid phases, and thermal processing in the solar system fractionates these reservoirs. The key ingredient to any model explaining the oxygen isotope systematics of the solar system is the composition of the Sun. Predictions for the solar oxygen isotope composition generally fall into either end of the (16)O fractionation line characterizing solar system compositions, viz. either the Sun has a composition close to terrestrial, or enriched in (16)O.

20050169739 New York Univ., New York, NY, USA The Infinite Journey: Eyewitness Accounts of NASA and the Age of Space Burrows, William E.; Kalamaras, Mary, Editor; [2000]; In English; Original contains color and black and white illustrations; Copyright; Avail: Other Sources Many of the most stirring moments in the history of spaceflight occurred through the dedication of the thousands of men and women of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. In this unprecedented volume, more than one hundred astronauts, engineers, scientists, and eyewitnesses recall in vivid detail their personal experiences of events spanning more than four decades of space-exploration history. Offering a unique you-are-there perspective, The Infinite Journey: Eyewitness Accounts of NASA and the Age of Space treats readers to firsthand accounts of their human and robotic spaceflight missions selected for their historical significance in consultation with NASA and its chief historian, Dr. Roger D. Launius. Here are moments that galvanized a nation-from the first suborbital missions in space and footsteps on the Moon to the tragic Challenger shuttle disaster to the unveiling of our outer solar system and the search for Martian life. The Infinite Journey opens with an introduction by respected journalist and space historian William E. Burrows, who takes readers on an informative trip through the early roots of space exploration and creation of NASA. In his subsequent chapter overviews and mission essays, Burrows provides background information and context for the individual stories that follow. From the Mercury program through the beginning of the International Space Station, the drama of human spaceflight unfolds through the words of eyewitnesses, including Neil A. Armstrong, who describes his tense moments as Gemini 8 spun out of control; Eugene A. Cernan, who recounts what it felt like to be the last human to walk on the Moon; and Eileen Collins, who relates the excitement of her first flight in space on the STS-63 Mir-rendezvous mission. The book also brings to life robotic exploration programs that have revealed to us the wonders of the universe.
