Reflection coefficient of parallel plate waveguide apertures for TEM and TE modes by wedge diffraction analysis
Progress is reported for research on fast test and liquid metal fast breeder reactor shielding.
The atomic oxygen emission line at 6300 A, measured in the nadir direction by a photometer on the polar orbiting satellite OGO-4, was plotted between 40 deg N and 40 deg S latitude on a series of maps for the moon-free periods between 30 August 1967 and 10 January 1968 The longitudinal and local time variations which occur during the northern fall-winter season are indicated. The northern tropical arc is more widespread while the southern arc is not present at all longitudes. The conditions under which the observations were made are described, and four airglow maps were selected to show the local time variations.

We have recorded a series of outbursts starting on 1996 Dec. 2 that are consistent with the position of GRO J1744-28, the bursting pulsar. The bursts are detected between 20 and 100 keV, and on Dec. 2 they came in variable rates ranging from every 300 to every 500 s, with a preliminary total number estimated between 80 and 1 00 events. After Dec. 3, the burst rate dropped to 15-20 bursts/day, where it has remained. The current average error radius of the burst locations is about 4 deg. The burst fluence is currently about 2 x 10E-7 erg cmE-2. This indicates that the source is in outburst again. Although the source location is currently very close to the sun, we encourage observations in other wavelengths whenever possible. Persistent, hard x-ray emission from GRO J1744-28 (IAUC 6272, 6284, 6285) is currently being detected through both pulsation and earth occultation. Pulsations with a period near 0.467 s became detectable on Dec. 17, rising to a 20- to 40-keV-rms-pulsed flux of 1.3(1) x 10E-9 erg cmE-1 sE-1 (170 mCrab) by 1997 Jan. 3. On Jan. 1.0, the intrinsic pulse frequency was 2.1408983(4) Hz, and the spin-up rate was 2.8(5) x l0E-12 HzsE-1. This assumes the following circular orbit parameters: P = 11.83665(14) days; epoch of longitude 90 deg = JD 2450126.9977(4) TDB; a sin i = 2.6371(5) light-s (determined using data from the 1995 Dec.-l996 Apr. outburst). Earth-occultation monitoring of flux from GRO J1744-28 shows its intensity increasing by a factor of about two during 1996 Dec. 25-1997 Jan. 6. Although source confusion prevents a precise flux estimate, subtracting a 25-percent background for unresolved galactic-center sources yields a persistent flux for Jan. 3-6 in the energy bands 20-30, 30-40, and 40-50 keV of 590, 470, and 290 mcrab, respectively."
