The purpose of the act is to implement a nationwide storage and retrieval system for scientific research data, using as many existing facilities as possible in order to avoid duplication and to assure quick access to and a constant inventory of, all science research data.

1 Reading Athenaios' Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo: Critical Edition And
Reading Athenaios’ Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo: Critical Edition and Commentaries DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Corey M. Hackworth Graduate Program in Greek and Latin The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Fritz Graf, Advisor Benjamin Acosta-Hughes Carolina López-Ruiz 1 Copyright by Corey M. Hackworth 2015 2 Abstract This dissertation is a study of the Epigraphical Hymn to Apollo that was found at Delphi in 1893, and since attributed to Athenaios. It is believed to have been performed as part of the Athenian Pythaïdes festival in the year 128/7 BCE. After a brief introduction to the hymn, I provide a survey and history of the most important editions of the text. I offer a new critical edition equipped with a detailed apparatus. This is followed by an extended epigraphical commentary which aims to describe the history of, and arguments for and and against, readings of the text as well as proposed supplements and restorations. The guiding principle of this edition is a conservative one—to indicate where there is uncertainty, and to avoid relying on other, similar, texts as a resource for textual restoration. A commentary follows, which traces word usage and history, in an attempt to explore how an audience might have responded to the various choices of vocabulary employed throughout the text. Emphasis is placed on Athenaios’ predilection to utilize new words, as well as words that are non-traditional for Apolline narrative. The commentary considers what role prior word usage (texts) may have played as intertexts, or sources of poetic resonance in the ears of an audience. -

Johnson, Supervisor ___________________________ Janet Downie ___________________________ Joshua D. Sosin ___________________________ Jed W. Atkins An abstract of a dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Classical Studies in the Graduate School of Duke University 2019 Copyright by David William Frierson Stifler 2019 Abstract This dissertation investigates ancient language ideologies constructed by Greek and Latin writers of the second and third centuries CE, a loosely-connected movement now generally referred to the Second Sophistic. It focuses on Lucian of Samosata, a Syrian “barbarian” writer of satire and parody in Greek, and especially on his works that engage with language-oriented topics of contemporary relevance to his era. The term “language ideologies”, as it is used in studies of sociolinguistics, refers to beliefs and practices about language as they function within the social context of a particular culture or set of cultures; prescriptive grammar, for example, is a broad and rather common example. The surge in Greek (and some Latin) literary output in the Second Sophistic led many writers, with Lucian an especially noteworthy example, to express a variety of ideologies regarding the form and use of language. -

Survey of New Solar Results
SURVEY OF NEW SOLAR RESULTS R.TOUSEY E. O. Hulburt Center for Space Research, U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, Washington, D.C., U.S.A. Abstract. Following a brief historical review, new observations of the sun in the wavelength range 3000 to 20 A are surveyed for the period since about 1958. Vehicles employed have been sounding rockets, the OSO (Orbiting Solar Observatories), balloons for the window 2300-1900 A and for k > 2700 A, and small orbiting observatories such as Solrad, for XUV solar monitoring. Advances have been made in spectral resolution, using echelle gratings and also Fabry-Perot interferometers. Much progress has been made towards increased spatial resolution, to obtain spectra of specific solar features and to analyse the chromosphere and corona. Methods employed include spectrographs that are stigmatic, or that have a stabilized solar image projected onto the slit; slitless objective-type spectrographs; and observations during a total eclipse. Spectra have been obtained of a solar flare, showing its form and intensity in the emission lines between 171 and 630 A. From OSO 4-6 many XUV spectroheliograms and spectra have been obtained over the range 300 to 1350 A, with spatial resolution 35 < 35 arc sec in OSO 6. Photographic XUV spectroheliograms have provided solar images with spatial resolution as great as 3 arc sec in some cases. Although much effort has been spent to increase the accuracy of XUV intensity measurements, a great deal remains to be done before the requirements of solar physics theory are satisfied. Line identification, however, is proceeding well, although more laboratory spectroscopy is needed. -

Esta es una relación cronológica de todos los lanzamientos de satélites artificiales de nuestro planeta, con independencia de su éxito o fracaso, tanto en el disparo como en órbita. Significa pues que muchos de ellos no han alcanzado el espacio y fueron destruidos. Se señala en primer lugar (a la izquierda) su nombre, seguido de la fecha del lanzamiento, el país al que pertenece el satélite (que puede ser otro distinto al que lo lanza) y el tipo de satélite; este último aspecto podría no corresponderse en exactitud dado que algunos son de finalidad múltiple. En los lanzamientos múltiples, cada satélite figura separado (salvo en los casos de fracaso, en que no llegan a separarse) pero naturalmente en la misma fecha y juntos.

R. Pollack, Ph.D. G. R. Zin, P’h.D. Principal Investigator L. A. Girifalco, Ph.D. Staff Scientists ABS TRACT This quarter was spent in acquiring data for the flights chosen for study in the last quarter. Analysis of the environment for the individual flights has begun. This work is progressing with the viewpoint of trying to simplify the environmental specification. The most difficult aspect of the environmental analysis is the speci- fication of the vehicle's thermal history. The vehicles under study are therefore being grouped according to subclassifica- tions based on the nature of the vehicle as the first attempt to find any performance correlations. All of the specific data for the flights under study have been extracted from the literature obtained from the computer searches conducted earlier. These data are incomplete and in- adequate for this study. Examples of the nature of this data were reported in the last quarterly,report and are shown in 8 this report. The data required for this study must be obtained by personal contacts with individuals who have been connected with the various flights. The appropriate individuals to contact have been identified for 75 of the 77 flights included in this study. These people have been and are being contacted to obtain the required data. i Table of Contents Fage I. Introduction 1 11. The Selected Flights and Environment 3 111. -
