    Wikipedia Reader https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aurora Selected by Julie Madsen - Entry 10 1 Aurora From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia An aurora, sometimes referred to as a polar lights or north- ern lights, is a natural light display in the sky, predominantly seen in the high latitude (Arctic and Antarctic) regions.[1] Au- roras are produced when the magnetosphere is sufficiently disturbed by the solar wind that the trajectories of charged particles in both solar wind and magnetospheric plasma, mainly in the form of electrons and protons, precipitate them into the upper atmosphere (ther- mosphere/exosphere), where their energy is lost. The resulting ion- ization and excitation of atmospheric constituents emits light of varying color and complexity. The form of the aurora, occur- ring within bands around both polar regions, is also dependent on the amount of acceleration imparted to the precipitating parti- cles. Precipitating protons generally produce optical emissions as incident hydrogen atoms after gaining electrons from the atmosphere. Proton Images of auroras from around the world, auroras are usually observed at including those with rarer red and blue lower latitudes.[2] lights Wikipedia Reader 2 May 1 2017 Contents 1 Occurrence of terrestrial auroras 1.1 Images 1.2 Visual forms and colors 1.3 Other auroral radiation 1.4 Aurora noise 2 Causes of auroras 2.1 Auroral particles 2.2 Auroras and the atmosphere 2.3 Auroras and the ionosphere 3 Interaction of the solar wind with Earth 3.1 Magnetosphere 4 Auroral particle acceleration 5 Auroral events of historical significance 6 Historical theories, superstition and mythology 7 Non-terrestrial auroras 8 See also 9 Notes 10 References 11 Further reading 12 External links Occurrence of terrestrial auroras Most auroras occur in a band known as the auroral zone,[3] which is typically 3° to 6° wide in latitude and between 10° and 20° from the geomagnetic poles at all local times (or longitudes), most clearly seen at night against a dark sky.

E-mail : [email protected], [email protected] [email protected], [email protected] Abstract : This specific paper addresses the historical events that had led in the current scenario, to the development of one of the most important fundamental research areas – Geomagnetism, which might even date back to probably millions of years embedded in the core scientific aspects of even ancient civilizations. The solar wind and its associated magnetic field have their source in the Sun and their interaction with the geo-magnetic field which extends into outer space has its origin inside the earth’s core. Needless to say, the contributions of many scientific researchers on the dynamics of upper, middle and lower atmospheres of the earth is really outstanding and remarkable, but certain important aspects appear to have been missed.

    Olmsted 200 Bicentennial Notes about Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township – First Farmed in 1814 and Settled in 1815 Issue 42 November 1, 2016 Contents November Meteors Have Connection to Olmsted History 1 Sesquicentennial Coin Turns Up 7 Did Peltzes Move to California for Their Health? 8 Chestnut Grove Will Host Veterans Day Ceremony 10 Still to Come 11 November Meteors Have Connection to Olmsted History If the nighttime sky is dark enough and clear enough around the middle of November and you happen to see one or more meteors – or “shooting stars” – you might be witness to a portion of one of the best-known annual meteor showers. But maybe you didn’t know – until now – about that meteor shower’s connection to the family for whom Olmsted Falls and Olmsted Township, as well as North Olmsted, are named. Meteor showers occur when the Earth, in its orbit around the sun, encounters streams of particles. Those particles are left in the wake of comets in their trips from the edges of the solar system to close passes by the sun and then back to the outer realms. The Earth experiences several meteor showers of varied intensity each year. One of the best- known meteor showers is the Perseids, partly because they reliably provide an average of about one meteor each minute at their peak. It’s also partly because they occur in mid-August, when the weather is warm enough that it is comfortable for observers to stay outside for long periods NASA released this photo of the Leonids as in the middle of the night.

  • Denison Olmsted (1791-1859), Scientist, Teacher, Christian: a Biographical Study of the Connection Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Gary Lee Schoepflin for the degree ofDoctor of Philosophy in General Science presented on June 17, 1977 Title:DENISON OLMSTED (1791-1859), SCIENTIST, TEACHER, CHRISTIAN: A BIOGRAPHICAL STUDY OF THE CONNECTION OF SCIENCE WITH RELIGION IN ANTEBELLUM AMERICA Redacted for Privacy Abstract approved: Danie JJ one s A biographical study of Denison Olmsted, focusing upon his own Christian world view and its connection with his various activities in science, supports the view that religion served as a significant factor in the promotion of science in America during this time period. Olmsted taught physics, meteorology and astronomy at Yale from 1826 to 1859, and from this position of influence, helped mold the minds and outlook of a new generation of scientists, of hundreds of students who came to Yale to obtain a liberal educa- tion, and of those members of society who attended his popular lectures.Olmsted's personal perspective was that science was God-ordained, that it would ever harmonize with religion, that it was indeed a means of hastening the glorious millennium. Olmsted lived in an era characterized by an unprecedented revivalism and emphasis upon evangelical Christianity. He graduated from Yale (1813) at a time when its president, Reverend Dr. Timothy Dwight, one of the most influential clergymen in New England, was at the height of his fame. Olmsted subsequently studied theology under Dwight, but before completing his prepara- tion for the ministry, Olmsted was appointed to a professorship of science at the University of North Carolina where he taught from 1818 until he was called to Yale in 1826.

  • CHAIRMEN of SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–Present
    CHAIRMEN OF SENATE STANDING COMMITTEES [Table 5-3] 1789–present INTRODUCTION The following is a list of chairmen of all standing Senate committees, as well as the chairmen of select and joint committees that were precursors to Senate committees. (Other special and select committees of the twentieth century appear in Table 5-4.) Current standing committees are highlighted in yellow. The names of chairmen were taken from the Congressional Directory from 1816–1991. Four standing committees were founded before 1816. They were the Joint Committee on ENROLLED BILLS (established 1789), the joint Committee on the LIBRARY (established 1806), the Committee to AUDIT AND CONTROL THE CONTINGENT EXPENSES OF THE SENATE (established 1807), and the Committee on ENGROSSED BILLS (established 1810). The names of the chairmen of these committees for the years before 1816 were taken from the Annals of Congress. This list also enumerates the dates of establishment and termination of each committee. These dates were taken from Walter Stubbs, Congressional Committees, 1789–1982: A Checklist (Westport, CT: Greenwood Press, 1985). There were eleven committees for which the dates of existence listed in Congressional Committees, 1789–1982 did not match the dates the committees were listed in the Congressional Directory. The committees are: ENGROSSED BILLS, ENROLLED BILLS, EXAMINE THE SEVERAL BRANCHES OF THE CIVIL SERVICE, Joint Committee on the LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, LIBRARY, PENSIONS, PUBLIC BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS, RETRENCHMENT, REVOLUTIONARY CLAIMS, ROADS AND CANALS, and the Select Committee to Revise the RULES of the Senate. For these committees, the dates are listed according to Congressional Committees, 1789– 1982, with a note next to the dates detailing the discrepancy.

  • Records of the Office of Governor, 1820-1858 State Archives Record Group No
    Records of the Office of Governor, 1820-1858 State Archives Record Group No. 005 History Before the adoption of the Constitution of 1818, Connecticut governed itself by the Fundamental Orders (1639) and the Colonial Charter (1662). From 1776 to 1818, the provisions of the Charter remained in force except for the elimination of the words “Crown” and “Parliament.” The Orders and the Charter created the office of the governor, but did not make it an independent executive department. Except when exercising powers in wartime as “Captain-General” of the militia, the governor did not enjoy the powers granted late twentieth-century Connecticut governors. He presided over the General Court, later known as the General Assembly, and could vote only in cases of ties. Under the Charter, he sat as part of the Council, the colonial upper house. The governor could also convene the legislature for special business. In neither government was the governor an independent executive. His influence depended on his political skills. The State’s first written constitution of 1818 created three independent branches of government, the executive, legislative, and judicial. It “vested” the “supreme executive power” in the office of the governor.1 Another clause further mandated that the chief executive “take care that the laws be faithfully executed.” Only white men who were electors and had reached the age of thirty years were eligible for the office of governor. Annually in April all the qualified white electors in each town cast votes for gubernatorial candidates.2 On the first day of the May session of the legislature, the two houses examined the canvass reports and chose the governor.
