    .A 1 case-PR/ }*rciofft.;is Report (a) This eruption site on Mauna Loa Volcano was the main source of the voluminous lavas that flowed two- thirds of the distance to the town of Hilo (20 km). In the interior of the lava fountains, the white-orange color indicates maximum temperatures of about 1120°C; deeper orange in both the fountains and flows reflects decreasing temperatures (<1100°C) at edges and the surface. (b) High winds swept the exposed ridges, and the filter cannister was changed in the shelter of a p^hoehoc (lava) ridge to protect the sample from gas contamination. (c) Because of the high temperatures and acid gases, special clothing and equipment was necessary to protect the eyes. nose, lungs, and skin. Safety features included military flight suits of nonflammable fabric, fuil-face respirators that are equipped with dual acidic gas filters (purple attachments), hard hats, heavy, thick-soled boots, and protective gloves. We used portable radios to keep in touch with the Hawaii Volcano Observatory, where the area's seismic activity was monitored continuously. (d) Spatter activity in the Pu'u O Vent during the January 1984 eruption of Kilauea Volcano. Magma visible in the circular conduit oscillated in a piston-like fashion; spatter was ejected to heights of 1 to 10 m. During this activity, we sampled gases continuously for 5 hours at the west edge. Cover photo: This aerial view of Kilauea Volcano was taken in April 1984 during overflights to collect gas samples from the plume. The bluish portion of the gas plume contained a far higher density of fine-grained scoria (ash).

Project Prometheus has been transferred to NASA’s new Office of Exploration Systems (Code T). JPL will play a key role in NASA’s “Exploration Beyond Earth Orbit” ‘Future in theme, which Elachi termed “a sustained human and robotic program to explore the solar system and beyond. Reaching the moon is not an end in itself; rather, it will be as a steppingstone to go to Mars.” Besides the Jupiter Icy Moons Orbiter, the budget proposal fully excellent supports JPL’s work in the Navigator Program: the Space Interferometry Mission, Kepler and Terrestrial Planet Finder. “This vision is a key element of NASA, but it’s only a part of NASA,” shape’ Elachi said. “NASA remains committed to a strong program in Earth science, to understand and protect our home planet.” Next year’s proposed Earth science budget calls for $1.49 billion, about $128 million less than this year. Elachi said the reduction is due to FY ’04 Congressional earmarks and the recent launches of the Earth Observing System Terra and Aqua missions and upcoming launch of Aura. The bottom line, Elachi said, is that all JPL Earth missions in devel- opment have been fully funded—Jason; three Earth probes (Orbiting Carbon Observatory, Aquarius and Hydros); and a wide-swath ocean Dutch Slager / JPL Photolab surface topography radar follow-on for Jason.

  • Exploring Group Theory and Topology for Analyzing the Structure of Biology
    Noname manuscript No. (will be inserted by the editor) Exploring group theory and topology for analyzing the structure of biology Shun Adachi Received: date / Accepted: date Abstract The concepts of population and species play a fundamental role in biology. The existence and precise definition of higher-order hierarchies, such as division into species, is open to debate among biologists. First, we seek to show a fractal structure of species. We are able to define a species as a p-Sylow subgroup of a particular community in a single niche, confirmed by topological analysis. We named this model the patch with zeta dominance (PzDom) model. Next, the topological nature of the system is carefully examined and for test- ing purposes, species density data are used in conjunction with data derived from liquid-chromatography mass spectrometry of proteins. We confirm the induction of hierarchy and time through a one-dimensional probability space with certain topologies. For further clarification of induced fractals including the relation to renormal- ization in physics, a theoretical development is proposed based on a newly identified fact, namely that scaling parameters for magnetization exactly cor- respond to imaginary parts of the Riemann zeta function’s nontrivial zeros. A master torus and a Lagrangian/Hamiltonian are derived expressing fractal structures as a solution for diminishing divergent terms in renormalization. We will also focus on an application of our developed model. We extend current PzDom model to the so-called exPzDom model to qualify population dynamics as a topological matter as a whole, not focusing on hierarchy. The indicators in the exPzDom model adhere well to the empirical dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 infected people and align appropriately with actual policies instituted by the S.

The principal point of this program was a detail ed scientific analysis of the orbital and surface experiments data derived from Apollo missions 15, 16, and 17 . One of the requirements of this program was the production of detailed photo base maps at a useabl e scale . NASA in conjunction with the Defense Mapping Agency (DMA) commenced a mapping program in early 1973 that would lead to the production of the necessary maps based on the need for certain areas . This paper is desi gned to present in outline form the neces- sary background information for users to become familiar with the program. MAP FORMAT The scale chosen for the project was 1:250,000* . The re- search being done required a scale that Principal Investigators (PI's) using orbital photography could use, but would also serve PI's doing surface photographic investigations. Each map sheet covers an area four degrees north/south by five degrees east/west. The base is compiled from vertical Metric photography from Apollo missions 15, 16, and 17.

Section 20 - Lunar Day 15 Tonight we'll begin a limb-to-limb lunar history adventure by learning about the Soviet probe, Lunik 9. In 1966, the unmanned lunar traveler became the first to achieve a soft landing on the Moon’s surface and successfully transmit photographs back to Earth. The lander weighed in at 99 kg, and had four outward opening antenna petals. Within five minutes of touchdown on January 31, the antennae sprang to life and the on-board television cameras began broadcasting the first panoramic images of the surface of another world – thus proving a lander would not simply sink into the lunar dust. Last contact with the spacecraft occurred just before midnight on February 6, 1966. If you'd like to see where Lunik 9’s remains stand, turn your binoculars or telescopes towards the western lunar limb for Oceanus Procellarum. On its western edge, you can easily identify the dark oval of crater Grimaldi. About one Grimaldi- length northward and on the western shore of Procellarum is where you will find Lunik 9’s resting place.

    Localized Structures in Forced Oscillatory Systems by Yiping Ma A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Physics in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Edgar Knobloch, Chair Professor Jonathan Wurtele Professor Andrew Szeri Fall 2011 Localized Structures in Forced Oscillatory Systems Copyright 2011 by Yiping Ma 1 Abstract Localized Structures in Forced Oscillatory Systems by Yiping Ma Doctor of Philosophy in Physics University of California, Berkeley Professor Edgar Knobloch, Chair This dissertation studies nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) describing pattern formation, using a combination of analytical and numerical techniques. A major part focuses on spatially localized states in the 1:1 forced complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (FCGLE) 2 2 At =(μ + iν)A − (1 + iβ)|A| A +(1+iα)∇ A + γ, A = U + iV ∈ C,U,V∈ R, which is the normal form for a 1:1 resonantly forced Hopf bifurcation in spatially extended systems. One-dimensional (1D) steady localized states can be fruitfully studied using tools from dynamical systems theory. In particular, the localized states consisting of a Turing pattern embedded in a background equilibrium are shown to grow along its bifurcation curve via a new mechanism called defect-mediated snaking (DMS). In this growth mech- anism new rolls are nucleated from the center of the wavetrain, in contrast to standard homoclinic snaking observed in the generalized Swift-Hohenberg equation. The temporal dynamics of localized states outside the snaking region are mediated by successive phase slips resulting from the Eckhaus instability. The spatial dynamics of DMS are explained by an asymptotic theory near a saddle-center bifurcation in a planar reversible map.
