  • Glossary Glossary
    Glossary Glossary Albedo A measure of an object’s reflectivity. A pure white reflecting surface has an albedo of 1.0 (100%). A pitch-black, nonreflecting surface has an albedo of 0.0. The Moon is a fairly dark object with a combined albedo of 0.07 (reflecting 7% of the sunlight that falls upon it). The albedo range of the lunar maria is between 0.05 and 0.08. The brighter highlands have an albedo range from 0.09 to 0.15. Anorthosite Rocks rich in the mineral feldspar, making up much of the Moon’s bright highland regions. Aperture The diameter of a telescope’s objective lens or primary mirror. Apogee The point in the Moon’s orbit where it is furthest from the Earth. At apogee, the Moon can reach a maximum distance of 406,700 km from the Earth. Apollo The manned lunar program of the United States. Between July 1969 and December 1972, six Apollo missions landed on the Moon, allowing a total of 12 astronauts to explore its surface. Asteroid A minor planet. A large solid body of rock in orbit around the Sun. Banded crater A crater that displays dusky linear tracts on its inner walls and/or floor. 250 Basalt A dark, fine-grained volcanic rock, low in silicon, with a low viscosity. Basaltic material fills many of the Moon’s major basins, especially on the near side. Glossary Basin A very large circular impact structure (usually comprising multiple concentric rings) that usually displays some degree of flooding with lava. The largest and most conspicuous lava- flooded basins on the Moon are found on the near side, and most are filled to their outer edges with mare basalts.

LEWIS Rachael Pearson Matthew Lewis‟s 1796 novel The Monk continues to attract critical attention, but the accusation that it was blasphemous has overshadowed the rest of his writing career. He was also a playwright, M. P. and slave-owner. This thesis considers the need to reassess the presentation of social power, primarily that of a conservative paternalism, in Lewis‟s dramas and the impact of biographical issues upon this.

  • 0 Lunar and Planetary Institute Provided by the NASA Astrophysics Data System THORIUM CONCENTRATIONS : IMBRIUM and ADJACENT REGIONS
    THORIUM CONCENTRATIONS IN THE IMBRIUM AND ADJACENT REGIONS OF THE MOON. A1 bert E. Metzger, Eldon L. Haines*, Maria I. Etchegaray-Ramirez, Jet Propulsion Laboratory, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91103, and B. Ray Hawke, Hawaii Institute of Geophysics, University of Hawaii, Honolulu, HI 96822. The orbital gamma-ray spectrometer deconvolution technique restores some of the inherent spatial resolution and contrast lost because of the substan- tial field of view of the instrument. The technique has previously been applied to the observed Th distributions in the Aristarchus, Apennine, and Smythii regions of the Moon overflown by Apollo (1,2). Application has now been made to the Imbrium region using that portion of the data field extending from 10°W - 42OW, over which the data coverage lies between 18ON and 30°N. The area enclosed not only fills in the interval between the Aristarchus- and Apennine-centered regions previously reported but also provides overlap regions which serve as a test of consistency. It is characterized by basalt flows of various ages, depths, and spectral proper- ties, craters of Copernican and Eratosthenian age, and probable areas of pyroclastic mantling . The Aristarchus and Apennine regions contain two of the three areas of maximum radioactivity observed along the Apollo 15 and 16 data tracks. For both regions the undeconvolved values for the 2' x 2" pixels comprising the data base, range over a factor of 3-4 with maximum values in excess of 8.5 ppm. By comparison, the Imbrium field contains a contrast of only 1.5, the values being more uniformly high, but with an upper limit of about 6.5 ppm.

To assist in the detection of spurious and the correction of inaccu- rate pedigrees, is one of the purposes of the present publication, in which respect the first Volume has been of acknowledged utility. The two together, it is hoped, will form a comprehensive and tole- rably correct Register of Pedigrees. It will be observed that some of the Mares which appeared in the last Supplement (whereof this is a republication and continua- tion) stand as they did there, i. e. without any additions to their produce since 1813 or 1814. — It has been ascertained that several of them were about that time sold by public auction, and as all attempts to trace them have failed, the probability is that they have either been converted to some other use, or been sent abroad. If any proof were wanting of the superiority of the English breed of horses over that of every other country, it might be found in the avidity with which they are sought by Foreigners. The exportation of them to Russia, France, Germany, etc. for the last five years has been so considerable, as to render it an object of some importance in a commercial point of view.

  • HISTÓRIAS DE VIOLÊNCIA: PROCESSOS CRIMINAIS E CONFLITOS INTER-ÉTNICOS Karl Monsma
    HISTÓRIAS DE VIOLÊNCIA: PROCESSOS CRIMINAIS E CONFLITOS INTER- ÉTNICOS Karl Monsma Departamento de Ciências Sociais Universidade Federal de São Carlos Trabalho apresentado no Grupo de Trabalho “Migrações Internacionais”, XXIV Encontro Anual da ANPOCS, Petrópolis, RJ, outubro de 2000 1 HISTÓRIAS DE VIOLÊNCIA: PROCESSOS CRIMINAIS E CONFLITOS INTER-ÉTNICOS Karl Monsma Um conflito violento chama a atenção. Depois do evento, os envolvidos, se sobrevivem, e os outros presentes contam versões do acontecido a amigos, familiares, vizinhos e colegas. Essas versões, muitas vezes discordantes, entram nos circuitos locais de boatos e nas conversas de bar e de rua, sofrendo modificações ao passar de boca a boca. Quando a briga se dá entre membros de etnias distintas, as interpretações podem divergir ainda mais. Se uma pessoa é processada em conseqüência do conflito, a justiça usa as versões do réu, da vítima e das testemunhas para construir outra versão do evento, agora reconfigurado como crime. A justiça, como o antropólogo Geertziano, produz “interpretações de interpretações” (Geertz, 1973). Como demonstram Marisa Corrêa (1983) e Boris Fausto (1984), as categorias da lei e os valores e estratégias dos profissionais da justiça--delegados, escrivãos, promotores, advogados e juizes--filtram o que entra em um processo e modificam o vocabulário dos depoimentos, escritos na terceira pessoa. Em geral, quanto mais adiantado o processo no percurso inquérito-julgamento-recurso, mais esses valores, categorias e estratégias influenciam a reconstrução do conflito. Mesmo assim, os processos criminais constituem uma fonte privilegiada para o estudo da vida cotidiana no passado. Este paper apresenta algumas reflexões sobre o uso de processos criminais para estudar a história de relações entre grupos étnicos em sociedades de imigração.

  • Lunar Distances Final
    A (NOT SO) BRIEF HISTORY OF LUNAR DISTANCES: LUNAR LONGITUDE DETERMINATION AT SEA BEFORE THE CHRONOMETER Richard de Grijs Department of Physics and Astronomy, Macquarie University, Balaclava Road, Sydney, NSW 2109, Australia Email: [email protected] Abstract: Longitude determination at sea gained increasing commercial importance in the late Middle Ages, spawned by a commensurate increase in long-distance merchant shipping activity. Prior to the successful development of an accurate marine timepiece in the late-eighteenth century, marine navigators relied predominantly on the Moon for their time and longitude determinations. Lunar eclipses had been used for relative position determinations since Antiquity, but their rare occurrences precludes their routine use as reliable way markers. Measuring lunar distances, using the projected positions on the sky of the Moon and bright reference objects—the Sun or one or more bright stars—became the method of choice. It gained in profile and importance through the British Board of Longitude’s endorsement in 1765 of the establishment of a Nautical Almanac. Numerous ‘projectors’ jumped onto the bandwagon, leading to a proliferation of lunar ephemeris tables. Chronometers became both more affordable and more commonplace by the mid-nineteenth century, signaling the beginning of the end for the lunar distance method as a means to determine one’s longitude at sea. Keywords: lunar eclipses, lunar distance method, longitude determination, almanacs, ephemeris tables 1 THE MOON AS A RELIABLE GUIDE FOR NAVIGATION As European nations increasingly ventured beyond their home waters from the late Middle Ages onwards, developing the means to determine one’s position at sea, out of view of familiar shorelines, became an increasingly pressing problem.
