High Precision Piezoelectric Linear Motors for Operations at Cryogenic Temperatures and Vacuum

The use of an electromechanical device for optically positioning a mirror system during the pre-project phase of the Pluto Fast Flyby mission was evaluated at JPL. The device under consideration was a piezoelectric driven linear motor functionally dependent upon a time varying electric field which induces displacements ranging from submicrons to millimeters with positioning accuracy within nanometers.

Deuterium Exchange in the Systems of H2O+/H2O and H3O+/H2O

Using tandem mass spectrometry various water ion interactions were observed. These reactions consisted of a series of charge transfer, proton transfer, and isotopic exchange steps. The experimental data sets consist of variations of ion abundances over a neutral pressure range. An expected sequence of isotopic exchange reactions is given along with differential equation solutions & reaction rate data.

(abstract) Distribution of Unimolecular Lifetimes in Ion-Molecule Association Reactions

The distribution of unimolecular lifetimes of ion-molecule complexes formed in association reactions has been measured by ion cyclotron double-resonance. The mean unimolecular lifetimes of (H(sub 2)C(sub 6)N(sub 2)(sup +))(sup *) and (CH(sub 3)CN.CH(sub 3)(sup +))(sup *) were determined to be 180 (micro)s and 140 (micro)s respectively. A theoretical examination of the distribution of lifetimes of (CH(sub 3)CN.CH(sub 3)(sup +))(sup *) was conducted using a RRKM model. The RRKM distribution, when modified by experimental constraints, was found to be a good approximation of the experimentally determined lifetime distribution. The lifetimes for unimolecular dissociation and radiative relaxation, and the absolute efficiency of collisional relaxation are also reported.

Growth of Lower Stratospheric HCl/Cly Since 1993: Observations from Aircraft (ALIAS), Balloon (MarkIV, FIRS-2), Space Shuttle (ATMOS), and Satellite (HALOE) Measurements

Measurements of HCl in the lower stratosphere (15-21 km) from aircraft, balloon, Space Shuttle, and satellite reveal a growth in its mean abundance relative to that of total inorganic chlorine (Cly) from HCl/Cly = 57(+/-5)% in early 1993 to 75(+/-7)% by the end of 1997.

The Partitioning of NO(sub y) Species in the Summer Arctic Stratosphere

Volume mixing ratio profiles of the quantitatively significant NOy species NO, NO2, HNO3, HNO4, CINO3 and N2O5 were measured remotely form 8 to 38 km by the JPL MkIV FTIR solar absorption spectrometer during balloon flights from Fairbanks, Alaska on May 8 and July 8, 1997.
