Introduction Due to its most characteristic topics, the research of proper names is pre- eminently an activity pursued within the framework of a given national and linguistic community. Onomastics, however, like other academic fields, naturally and necessarily transcends these boundaries and puts its subjects into a wider context as well. This paper is dedicated not to the academic problems of international onomastic studies but to the international dimension of pursuing this academic field. Thus, its focuses are the institutions and forums of international onomastics and the wide range of potential international cooperation. First, the international organisations and bodies working in the field will be enumerated, which will be followed by an examination of the various types and varieties of institutional backgrounds present in different countries. The short overview will then attempt to list the most specific international conferences, the characteristics of onomastic periodicals and some of the basic publications in the field. Finally, it wishes to call attention to the possibilities in and importance of cooperation and the widening of academic horizons on an international level. Comprehensive literature on these subjects is scarce. The bulky trilingual international handbook of onomastics published in the mid-1990s (EICHLER et al. eds. 1995–1996), for example, includes a short summarising chapter on international onomastic cooperation (vAn lAnGEndonck 1995), while information covering specific countries in different chapters of the handbook is often random and, by now, also outdated (EICHLER et al. eds. 1995–1996. 1: 23–276). While one can gain insight into specific issues from a variety of sources (publications and websites in different languages, interpersonal communication, etc.), a systematic and comprehensive overview can hardly be found at present. The major websites of the field do help with useful links and information (see below), as does the information, for example, contained in international periodical databases. However, these are not sufficient enough in themselves since, yet again, they cannot be complete, and their data tends to be more or less random and not rarely also outdated. The successful functioning of an academic field is very much dependent on how well developed and even how visible its institutional network and academic forums are. Thus, in my view, providing an overview of these fields in an international context may be a useful contribution. Although this paper can only Tamás Farkas 6 focus on the major tendencies and bring a few examples, I do hope that looking at these will serve as a suitable introduction to the upcoming papers, many of which were presented at the International onomastic cooperation and projects symposium of the XXVI International Congress of Onomastic Sciences. The papers of this volume will offer more detailed and specific insight into many important fields of enquiry and tasks ahead, while they will also provide feasible examples of fruitful international cooperation. 2. The institutional background of international onomastics 2.1. International organisations and bodies The first and most comprehensive international academic organization of scholars in the field of onomastics is the International Council of Onomastic Sciences (ICOS). The Council continues the work of the International Committee of Onomastic Sciences (originally set up in 1949) as an academic society. It publishes a periodical (Onoma), organises the series of International Congresses of Onomastic Sciences, and (currently) runs two working groups: the Bibliography Group and the Terminology Group. ICOS is the most comprehensive international organisation of onomasticians. (For more information on ICOS and its history, see its website and DE STEFANI n. d.) There are several other bodies within the field of onomastics, organised along geographic and/or linguistic lines or by profile. The Commission of Slavic Onomastics within the International Committee of Slavists (SOK) was set up in 1958, while NORNA, the Nordic Cooperative Committee for Onomastic Research has been working since 1971. (For details see their websites, as well as GAłkowski 2018 and ALDRIN–SÆRHEIM–SYRJÄLÄ 2018 in this volume.) The United Nations Group of Experts on Geographical Names (UNGEGN) should also be mentioned here, whose continuous functioning started in the late 60s. Its activity is manifold, but its main focus is the collection, standardisation and dissemination of geographical names. (For more detailed information

De Hon, Principal Investigator I John A. Waskom, Co-Investigator Un-iversity-of Arkansas-:at-.Monticl o Monticello, Arkansas December 1975 ABSTRACT Isopach maps and structural contour maps of the 0 0 eastern mare basins (30 N to 30 OS; 00 to 100 E) are constructed from measurements of partially buried craters. The data, which are sufficiently scattered to yield gross thickness variations, are restricted to shallow maria with less than 1500-2000 m of mare basalts. The average thickness of b-asalt in the irregular maria is between 200 and 400 m. Multiringed mascon basins are filled to various levels. The Serenitatis and Crisium basins have deeply flooded interiors and extensively flooded shelves. Mare basalts in the Nectaris basin fill only the innermost basin, and mare basalts in the Smythii basin occupy a small portion of the basin floor. Sinus Amoris, Mare Spumans, and Mare Undarum are partially filled troughs concentric to large circular basins. The Tranquillitatis and Fecunditatis are composite depressions containing basalts which flood degraded circular basins and adjacent terrain modified by the formation of nearby cir­ cular basins.

  • On the Accuracy of Restricted Three-Body Models for the Trojan Motion
    DISCRETE AND CONTINUOUS Website: http://AIMsciences.org DYNAMICAL SYSTEMS Volume 11, Number 4, December 2004 pp. 843{854 ON THE ACCURACY OF RESTRICTED THREE-BODY MODELS FOR THE TROJAN MOTION Frederic Gabern1, Angel` Jorba1 and Philippe Robutel2 Departament de Matem`aticaAplicada i An`alisi Universitat de Barcelona Gran Via 585, 08007 Barcelona, Spain1 Astronomie et Syst`emesDynamiques IMCCE-Observatoire de Paris 77 Av. Denfert-Rochereau, 75014 Paris, France2 Abstract. In this note we compare the frequencies of the motion of the Trojan asteroids in the Restricted Three-Body Problem (RTBP), the Elliptic Restricted Three-Body Problem (ERTBP) and the Outer Solar System (OSS) model. The RTBP and ERTBP are well-known academic models for the motion of these asteroids, and the OSS is the standard model used for realistic simulations. Our results are based on a systematic frequency analysis of the motion of these asteroids. The main conclusion is that both the RTBP and ERTBP are not very accurate models for the long-term dynamics, although the level of accuracy strongly depends on the selected asteroid. 1. Introduction. The Restricted Three-Body Problem models the motion of a particle under the gravitational attraction of two point masses following a (Keple- rian) solution of the two-body problem (a general reference is [17]). The goal of this note is to discuss the degree of accuracy of such a model to study the real motion of an asteroid moving near the Lagrangian points of the Sun-Jupiter system. To this end, we have considered two restricted three-body problems, namely: i) the Circular RTBP, in which Sun and Jupiter describe a circular orbit around their centre of mass, and ii) the Elliptic RTBP, in which Sun and Jupiter move on an elliptic orbit.

These observations were carried out using the Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope and cover the wavelength range 200{550 nm at low resolution. The targets include objects from both of the Trojan color sub- populations (less-red and red). We do not observe any discernible absorption features in these spectra. Comparisons of the averaged UV spectra of less-red and red targets show that the subpopulations are spectrally distinct in the UV. Less-red objects display a steep UV slope and a rollover at around 450 nm to a shallower visible slope, whereas red objects show the opposite trend. Laboratory spectra of irradiated ices with and without H2S exhibit distinct UV absorption features; consequently, the featureless spectra observed here suggest H2S alone is not responsible for the observed color bimodal- ity of Trojans, as has been previously hypothesized. We propose some possible explanations for the observed UV-visible spectra, including complex organics, space weathering of iron-bearing silicates, and masked features due to previous cometary activity.

USA. 3Astronomical Institute of the Romanian Academy, Bucharest, Romania. Accepted XXX. Received YYY; in original form ZZZ ABSTRACT The Jovian Trojans are two swarms of small objects that share Jupiter’s orbit, clustered around the leading and trailing Lagrange points, L4 and L5. In this work, we investigate the Jovian Trojan population using the technique of astrocladistics, an adaptation of the ‘tree of life’ approach used in biology. We combine colour data from WISE, SDSS, Gaia DR2 and MOVIS surveys with knowledge of the physical and orbital characteristics of the Trojans, to generate a classification tree composed of clans with distinctive characteristics. We identify 48 clans, indicating groups of objects that possibly share a common origin. Amongst these are several that contain members of the known collisional families, though our work identifies subtleties in that classification that bear future investigation. Our clans are often broken into subclans, and most can be grouped into 10 superclans, reflecting the hierarchical nature of the population. Outcomes from this project include the identification of several high priority objects for additional observations and as well as providing context for the objects to be visited by the forthcoming Lucy mission.
