ABSTRACT Effects of argon, krypton and their mixed pressure treatments on the quality of white mushrooms were studied during 9 days of storage at 4˚C. Among all treatments in this study, the minimum respiration rate, polyphenoloxidase activity, retained color change, antioxidants and delayed pseudomonas growth were observed with pressure argon (5 MPa) fol- lowed by mixing argon and krypton (2.5 MPa each) treatments. Respiration rates after 9 days of storage were 5.35%, 6.20%, 7.50%, 7.60%, 7.91% and 8.95% for HA5, HAK, HA2, HK5, HK2 and control, respectively. -

Thermodynamics of Clathrate Hydrate at Low and High Pressures With
THE ASTROPHYSICAL JOURNAL SUPPLEMENT SERIES, 58:493-531, 1985 July © 1985. The American Astronomical Society. All rights reserved. Printed in U.S.A. THERMODYNAMICS OF CLATHRATE HYDRATE AT LOW AND HIGH PRESSURES 1985ApJS...58..493L WITH APPLICATION TO THE OUTER SOLAR SYSTEM1 JONATHAN I. LUNINE2 AND DAVID J. STEVENSON Division of Geological and Planetary Sciences, California Institute of Technology Received 1984 June 29; accepted 1985 January 10 ABSTRACT The thermodynamic stability of clathrate hydrate is calculated under a wide range of temperature and pressure conditions applicable to solar system problems, using a statistical mechanical theory developed by van der Waals and Platteeuw (1959) and existing experimental data on properties of clathrate hydrates and their components. At low pressure, dissociation pressures and partition functions (Langmuir constants) for CO clathrate (hydrate) have been predicted, using the properties of clathrate containing, as guests, molecules similar to CO. The comparable or higher propensity of CO to incorporate in clathrate relative to N2 is used to argue for high CO-to-N2 ratios in primordial Titan if N2 was accreted as clathrate. The relative incorporation of noble gases in clathrate ~rom a solar composition gas at low temperatures is calculated and applied to the case of giant-planet atmospheres and icy satellites. It is argued that nonsolar but well-constrained noble gas abundances will be measured by Galileo in the Jovian atmosphere if the observed carbon enhancement is due to bombardment of the atmosphere by clathrate-bearing planetesimals sometime after planetary formation. The noble gas abun dances in Titan's atmosphere are also predicted under the hypothesis that much of the satellite's methane accreted as clathrate. -
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.

Geologic Studies of Planetary Surfaces Using Radar Polarimetric Imaging 2
Geologic studies of planetary surfaces using radar polarimetric imaging 2 4 Lynn M. Carter NASA Goddard Space Flight Center 8 Donald B. Campbell 9 Cornell University 10 11 Bruce A. Campbell 12 Smithsonian Institution 13 14 14 Abstract: Radar is a useful remote sensing tool for studying planetary geology because it is 15 sensitive to the composition, structure, and roughness of the surface and can penetrate some 16 materials to reveal buried terrain. The Arecibo Observatory radar system transmits a single 17 sense of circular polarization, and both senses of circular polarization are received, which allows 18 for the construction of the Stokes polarization vector. From the Stokes vector, daughter products 19 such as the circular polarization ratio, the degree of linear polarization, and linear polarization 20 angle are obtained. Recent polarimetric imaging using Arecibo has included Venus and the 21 Moon. These observations can be compared to radar data for terrestrial surfaces to better 22 understand surface physical properties and regional geologic evolution. For example, 23 polarimetric radar studies of volcanic settings on Venus, the Moon and Earth display some 24 similarities, but also illustrate a variety of different emplacement and erosion mechanisms. 25 Polarimetric radar data provides important information about surface properties beyond what can 26 be obtained from single-polarization radar. Future observations using polarimetric synthetic 27 aperture radar will provide information on roughness, composition and stratigraphy that will 28 support a broader interpretation of surface evolution. 29 2 29 1.0 Introduction 30 31 Radar polarimetry has the potential to provide more information about surface physical 32 properties than single-polarization backscatter measurements, and has often been used in remote 33 sensing observations of Solar System objects. -
