Most immediately we have to thank Sandra Bürden at the Resources Centre, who assembles the pages on her computer and who is to thank for much of the fine detail of the magazine's final appearance: I am hugely indebted to her for her energy, initiative and attention to detail. Earlier in the chain stand the section editors, whose job is to round up copy and pictures for their sections and devise the running order and general page layouts for that section. They also have to go in for a good deal of rewriting: prolixity must be trimmed, irrelevance eliminated, errors put right and facetiousness filtered out. To be a good editor requires not only a good ear for language and a high level of compétence in written English: it also calls for patience and good humour in the actual pursuit of material. Mirabile dictu, it sometimes happens that contributors to the magazine are strong on promises but weak on performance. This year's editors have been terrifie.

    LUNAR TOPOGRAPHIC ORTHOPHOTOMAP (LTO) AND LUNAR ORTHOPHOTMAP (LO) SERIES (Published by DMATC) Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Scale: 1:250,000 Projection: Transverse Mercator Sheet Size: 25.5”x 26.5” The Lunar Topographic Orthophotmaps and Lunar Orthophotomaps Series are the first comprehensive and continuous mapping to be accomplished from Apollo Mission 15-17 mapping photographs. This series is also the first major effort to apply recent advances in orthophotography to lunar mapping. Presently developed maps of this series were designed to support initial lunar scientific investigations primarily employing results of Apollo Mission 15-17 data. Individual maps of this series cover 4 degrees of lunar latitude and 5 degrees of lunar longitude consisting of 1/16 of the area of a 1:1,000,000 scale Lunar Astronautical Chart (LAC) (Section 4.2.1). Their apha-numeric identification (example – LTO38B1) consists of the designator LTO for topographic orthophoto editions or LO for orthophoto editions followed by the LAC number in which they fall, followed by an A, B, C or D designator defining the pertinent LAC quadrant and a 1, 2, 3, or 4 designator defining the specific sub-quadrant actually covered. The following designation (250) identifies the sheets as being at 1:250,000 scale. The LTO editions display 100-meter contours, 50-meter supplemental contours and spot elevations in a red overprint to the base, which is lithographed in black and white. LO editions are identical except that all relief information is omitted and selenographic graticule is restricted to border ticks, presenting an umencumbered view of lunar features imaged by the photographic base.

  • Viscosity from Newton to Modern Non-Equilibrium Statistical Mechanics
    Viscosity from Newton to Modern Non-equilibrium Statistical Mechanics S´ebastien Viscardy Belgian Institute for Space Aeronomy, 3, Avenue Circulaire, B-1180 Brussels, Belgium Abstract In the second half of the 19th century, the kinetic theory of gases has probably raised one of the most impassioned de- bates in the history of science. The so-called reversibility paradox around which intense polemics occurred reveals the apparent incompatibility between the microscopic and macroscopic levels. While classical mechanics describes the motionof bodies such as atoms and moleculesby means of time reversible equations, thermodynamics emphasizes the irreversible character of macroscopic phenomena such as viscosity. Aiming at reconciling both levels of description, Boltzmann proposed a probabilistic explanation. Nevertheless, such an interpretation has not totally convinced gen- erations of physicists, so that this question has constantly animated the scientific community since his seminal work. In this context, an important breakthrough in dynamical systems theory has shown that the hypothesis of microscopic chaos played a key role and provided a dynamical interpretation of the emergence of irreversibility. Using viscosity as a leading concept, we sketch the historical development of the concepts related to this fundamental issue up to recent advances. Following the analysis of the Liouville equation introducing the concept of Pollicott-Ruelle resonances, two successful approaches — the escape-rate formalism and the hydrodynamic-mode method — establish remarkable relationships between transport processes and chaotic properties of the underlying Hamiltonian dynamics. Keywords: statistical mechanics, viscosity, reversibility paradox, chaos, dynamical systems theory Contents 1 Introduction 2 2 Irreversibility 3 2.1 Mechanics. Energyconservationand reversibility . ........................ 3 2.2 Thermodynamics.

The principal point of this program was a detailed 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 useable 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 designed to present in outline form the neces- sary background informatiox or 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.

  • Conditions for the Existence of Backward Surface Magnetostatic Waves in a Ferrite–Insulator–Metal Structure V
    TECHNICAL PHYSICS LETTERS VOLUME 24, NUMBER 7 JULY 1998 Conditions for the existence of backward surface magnetostatic waves in a ferrite–insulator–metal structure V. I. Zubkov and V. I. Shcheglov Institute of Radio Engineering and Electronics, Russian Academy of Sciences, Fryazino ~Submitted December 10, 1996; resubmitted March 13, 1998! Pis’ma Zh. Tekh. Fiz. 24, 1–7 ~July 12, 1998! A theoretical analysis is made of the dispersion of surface magnetostatic waves ~SMSWs! at different frequencies propagating in ferrite–insulator–metal ~FIM! structures magnetized by a uniform magnetic field. It is established that depending on the ratio between the thicknesses of the ferrite and insulating layers in FIM structures, backward SMSWs exist in different frequency ranges and have different wave numbers and directions of propagation. The conditions for which backward SMSWs may be observed directly in FIM structures are determined. © 1998 American Institute of Physics. @S1063-7850~98!00107-4# Studies of the dispersion of forward and backward sur- with varying VH , whereas the angle w is considered to be a face magnetostatic waves ~SMSWs! in ferrite–insulator– free parameter which is defined by the antenna exciting the metal ~FIM! structures are of great interest because of their SMSW (w5w0) ~Refs. 1–6!.

This document constitutes LSI Contribution No. 206 March 1975 USER GUIDE TO 1 : 250 , 000 SCALE LUNAR MAPS GENERAL In 1 972 the NASA Lunar Programs Office initiated the Apoll o Photographic Data Analysis Program. 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.
