Under den tid som Ulf Göranson har varit chef för biblio- teket har stora och genomgripande förändringar skett i biblioteksvärlden, såväl i stort som i smått. Mest iögonfallande är kanske e-medias genom- brott på bred front, den digitala publiceringen och kraven på att digitalt tillgängliggöra samlingarna. I kombination med de sociala mediernas allt större betydelse gör detta att biblioteksanvändarna idag utnyttjar biblio- tekets resurser på ett helt annat sätt än 1996. Stora krav ställs härigenom på en ärevördig biblioteksorganisation som UUB. Ulf Göranson har alltid följt denna utveckling med iver och intresse, och han har härigenom sett till att Uppsala universitetsbibliotek idag ligger i den yttersta frontlinjen bland Sveriges bibliotek. Bibliotekets omvittnat rika kulturarvssamlingar har haft en kunnig och hängiven tillskyndade i Ulf Göranson, vilket bland annat har resulterat i åtskilliga utställningar genom åren och flera väl ge- nomförda digitaliseringsprojekt. Att Ulf Göranson även är djupt respekte- rad i den internationella biblioteksvärlden omvittnas av hans engagemang i LIBER (Ligue des Bibliothèques Européennes de Recherche) och av att han nyligen utsågs till ordförande i CERL (Consortium of European Research Libraries), där han kommer att vara aktiv även efter pensioneringen. Med anledning av Ulf Göransons pensionsavgång vill biblioteket hylla och tacka sin avgående chef med denna festskrift. Tanken har varit att samla vänner och kolleger från skilda områden för att så allsidigt som möj- ligt belysa Ulf Göransons intresseområden, allt från juridik, historia och biblioteksvärldens olika aspekter till religion och hembygd: homo sum, hu- mani nihil a me alienum puto (Terentius). Ett stort tack riktas till Åsa Henningsson/Kart- och bildenheten, som har arbetat oförtrutet med att hjälpa till att ta fram en stor del av bild- materialet till denna bok och till Bo Jaensson och Magnus Hjalmarsson på Reproenheten, som har framställt bilderna. Stort tack även till Martin Högvall och Petra Wåhlin vid Grafisk service som har satt artiklarna och formgivit boken på ett enastående effektivt och lyckat sätt.

This sample of Accepted 9 May 2012 craters are nearly equally distributed between the two hemispheres, spanning from 53°Sto62°N latitude. Available online 24 May 2012 They range in diameter from 1 to 150 km, and are found at elevations between À5.5 to +5.2 km relative to the martian datum. The pits are polygonal to quasi-circular depressions that often occur in dense clus- Keywords: ters and range in size from 10 m to as large as 3 km.

  • Water on the Moon, III. Volatiles & Activity
    Water on The Moon, III. Volatiles & Activity Arlin Crotts (Columbia University) For centuries some scientists have argued that there is activity on the Moon (or water, as recounted in Parts I & II), while others have thought the Moon is simply a dead, inactive world. [1] The question comes in several forms: is there a detectable atmosphere? Does the surface of the Moon change? What causes interior seismic activity? From a more modern viewpoint, we now know that as much carbon monoxide as water was excavated during the LCROSS impact, as detailed in Part I, and a comparable amount of other volatiles were found. At one time the Moon outgassed prodigious amounts of water and hydrogen in volcanic fire fountains, but released similar amounts of volatile sulfur (or SO2), and presumably large amounts of carbon dioxide or monoxide, if theory is to be believed. So water on the Moon is associated with other gases. Astronomers have agreed for centuries that there is no firm evidence for “weather” on the Moon visible from Earth, and little evidence of thick atmosphere. [2] How would one detect the Moon’s atmosphere from Earth? An obvious means is atmospheric refraction. As you watch the Sun set, its image is displaced by Earth’s atmospheric refraction at the horizon from the position it would have if there were no atmosphere, by roughly 0.6 degree (a bit more than the Sun’s angular diameter). On the Moon, any atmosphere would cause an analogous effect for a star passing behind the Moon during an occultation (multiplied by two since the light travels both into and out of the lunar atmosphere).

  • Appendix I Lunar and Martian Nomenclature
    APPENDIX I LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE LUNAR AND MARTIAN NOMENCLATURE A large number of names of craters and other features on the Moon and Mars, were accepted by the IAU General Assemblies X (Moscow, 1958), XI (Berkeley, 1961), XII (Hamburg, 1964), XIV (Brighton, 1970), and XV (Sydney, 1973). The names were suggested by the appropriate IAU Commissions (16 and 17). In particular the Lunar names accepted at the XIVth and XVth General Assemblies were recommended by the 'Working Group on Lunar Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr D. H. Menzel. The Martian names were suggested by the 'Working Group on Martian Nomenclature' under the Chairmanship of Dr G. de Vaucouleurs. At the XVth General Assembly a new 'Working Group on Planetary System Nomenclature' was formed (Chairman: Dr P. M. Millman) comprising various Task Groups, one for each particular subject. For further references see: [AU Trans. X, 259-263, 1960; XIB, 236-238, 1962; Xlffi, 203-204, 1966; xnffi, 99-105, 1968; XIVB, 63, 129, 139, 1971; Space Sci. Rev. 12, 136-186, 1971. Because at the recent General Assemblies some small changes, or corrections, were made, the complete list of Lunar and Martian Topographic Features is published here.

    SCHOLARSHIP HANDBOOK NORRLANDS NATION PREFACE This is the English in-house translated version of the Scholarship Manual for members of Norrlands nation in Uppsala. It contains information about the scholarships and the special requirements to be eligible to apply for the scholarships. Please note that several of the scholarships require that you were born and/or raised in Norrland, i.e. the northern part of Sweden, to be qualified to apply for the scholarships. Therefore, only the scholarships that do not require that the applicant was born and/or raised in Norrland are translated in this translated version of the scholarship manual. If you were born and/or raised in Norrland, please read the Stipendiehandbok för Norrlands nation in Swedish. We ask you to pay careful attention to the announcements of and special information about the scholarships that are posted on the nation’s website and notice boards. If that information is different than that of this manual, the information in the special announcements will prevail. Please make sure that you read all instructions carefully, use the appropriate forms for your application and attach all relevant certificates to support the information you provide in your application. If the application is incomplete, the scholarship committee will not accept it. It is not possible to supplement the application after the application due date.
