Apollo 16 landing site: Summary of earth based remote sensing data, part W

Infrared and radar studies of the Apollo 16 landing site are summarized. Correlations and comparisons between earth based remote sensing data, IR observations, and other data are discussed in detail. Remote sensing studies were devoted to solving two problems: (1) determining the physical difference between Cayley and Descartes geologic units near the landing site; and (2) determining the nature of the bright unit of Descartes mountain material.

Basic Behavior and Properties of W-UO2 Cermets

Thermal cycling studies on cermets prepared from tungsten and UO2 powder mixtures and cermets prepared using tungsten coated UO2 particles are discussed. The cermets were tested in hydrogen at high temperatures to determine the effects of temperature, thermal cycling, and hydrogen pressure. Basic mechanism studies of tungsten­-UO2 interactions in thermally cycled cermets are also described.

Tidal winds at mesopause altitudes over Arecibo (18 deg N, 67 deg W), 5-11 April 1989 (AIDA '89)

A tidal analysis of the imaging Doppler interferometer scattering point parameter data at upper mesosphere-lower thermosphere altitudes (70-110 km) is presented, on the basis of the procedure developed by Groves (1959), over the interval April 5-11, 1989 at Aercibo as part of Project AIDA. This analysis reveals a typical equatorial easterly circulation, with mean meridional circulation becoming significant only above 96 km. A periodogram analysis shows the diurnal tide to be the most significant feature of the wind field at these altitudes, with zonal amplitudes up to some 50 m/s and meridional amplitudes approximately half this value. The semidiurnal tide is well developed in both zonal and meridional directions only above 96 km. Both 8- and 6-hr components become significant above 100 km, the 6-h component being as strong as both the 24- and 12-h tides at 100 km.

Strangeness in the proton from $W+$ charm production and SIDIS data

We perform a global QCD analysis of unpolarized parton distribution functions (PDFs) in the proton, including new 𝑊+⁢ charm production data from 𝑝⁢𝑝 collisions at the LHC and semi-inclusive pion and kaon production data in lepton-nucleon deep-inelastic scattering, both of which have been suggested for constraining the strange quark PDF. Compared with a baseline global fit that does not include these datasets, the new analysis reduces the uncertainty on the strange quark distribution over the range 0.01 < 𝑥 < 0.3, and provides a consistent description of processes sensitive to strangeness in the proton. Including the new datasets, the ratio of strange to nonstrange sea quark distributions is $R_s = (s + \bar{s})/(\bar{u} +\bar{d})$ $=$ {$0.7⁢2^{+0.52}_{−0.34}, 0.4⁢6^{+0.30}_{−0.20}, 0.3⁢2^{+0.23}_{−0.15}$} for 𝑥 ={$0.01, 0.04, 0.1$} at 𝑄 2 $=$ 4 GeV 2 . The data place more stringent constraints on the strange asymmetry $(s - \bar{s})$, which is found to be consistent with zero in this range.
