Ccd Speckle Observations Of Binary Stars From The Southern Hemisphere, Elliott P. Horch, Zoran Ninkov, Robert W. Slawson Nov 1997

Ccd Speckle Observations Of Binary Stars From The Southern Hemisphere, Elliott P. Horch, Zoran Ninkov, Robert W. Slawson

Articles

We present 119 position angle and separation measures of 86 double stars observed by way of speckle interferometry with the University of Toronto Southern Observatory 60 cm telescope at Las Campanas, Chile. Speckle interferograms are recorded with a bare (unintensified) front-illuminated CCD in a fast subarray-readout mode. Position angles and separations are determined by a weighted least-squares fitting algorithm applied to the binary power spectra, and the 180-degree ambiguity in the position angle inherent in this approach is resolved by bispectral analysis. In this configuration the 60 cm telescope exhibits near-diffraction-limited performance. Initial results indicate that our separation measures have …

Ms211: By Healthcare Committee Doc, Armin Weinberg

Works on Radiation Effects: 1990-2020

Selected material about the healthcare system/status in Russia circa 1997. It looks like a series of pieces from a healthcare publication. Clearly this was a part of our trying to assess the opportunity to further our work with Dennis Sokol of the American Medical Centers that Ambassador Strauss connected us with as well as the post-Chernobyl opportunities for our colleagues in the Former USSR. See more at Armin Weinberg, PhD Papers and its finding aid.

Strong Economic Growth Will Continue For The Next Two Years, John Austin, Nebraska Business Forecast Council Nov 1997

Strong Economic Growth Will Continue For The Next Two Years, John Austin, Nebraska Business Forecast Council

Business in Nebraska

The year-end analysis shows the state's economy growing rapidly with prospects for continued growth over the next two years. Total nonfarm employment will grow 2.2 percent in 1997 and just under that rate in 1998 and 1999 (Figure 1 and Table 1). Total nonfarm personal income will grow 6.3 percent in both 1997 and 1998, and 6.2 percent in 1999. Despite snow in the middle of the harvest season in parts of eastern Nebraska, net farm income will reach $2.3 billion in 1997, just under $2.5 billion in 1998, and $2.5 billion in 1999. Total net taxable retail sales will …

Spectrum Of Hot O At The Exobases Of The Terrestrial Planets, Jane L. Fox, Aleksander B. Hać Nov 1997

Spectrum Of Hot O At The Exobases Of The Terrestrial Planets, Jane L. Fox, Aleksander B. Hać

Physics Faculty Publications

The distribution of energetic O produced in dissociative recombination of O2+ at the exobases of the terrestrial planets is important in determining the structure of the outer hot O coronas and for the escape flux of O from Mars. Using recently measured values for the branching ratios of the energetically allowed channels in O2+ dissociative recombination, along with models of the vibrational distribution of O2+, we compute the velocity distribution of hot O atoms produced at the exobases of Mars, Venus, and Earth. We take into account the effects of the ion and …

Triazine Herbicide Exposure And Breast Cancer Incidence: An Ecologic Study Of Kentucky Counties, Michele A. Kettles, Steven R. Browning, Timothy Scott Prince, Sanford W. Horstman Nov 1997

Triazine Herbicide Exposure And Breast Cancer Incidence: An Ecologic Study Of Kentucky Counties, Michele A. Kettles, Steven R. Browning, Timothy Scott Prince, Sanford W. Horstman

Preventive Medicine and Environmental Health Faculty Publications

The incidence of breast cancer in the United States has steadily increased for the past three decades. Exposure to excess estrogen, in both natural and synthetic forms, has been implicated as a risk factor for the development of this disease. Considerable interest has been focused on organochlorines, such as the triazine herbicides, and their possible role in the initiation or promotion of human breast cancer. To explore this relationship, an ecologic study of Kentucky counties was designed. Exposure to triazines was estimated by use of water contamination data, corn crop production, and pesticide use data. A summary index of triazine …
