Apollo mission 12 lunar photography indexes

An index of lunar photography taken during the Apollo 12 mission is presented. Prominent lunar features are identified and named. A superimposed grid provides coordinate location for lunar topographical features. The photographs are of targets of opportunity taken with a 70 millimeter camera.

Management: A continuing literature survey with indexes, 1971

An annotated bibliography of selected reports, journal articles, and other documents on the subject of management is presented. There are 450 references to documents which were originally announced in the 1971 issues of Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR) or International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA). Subject, personal author, and corporate source indexes are included.

Spaceport news index, December 1962 - February 1972

This index is intended to serve as a ready reference tool for the names, places and events that comprise the history of John F. Kennedy Space Center. The period covered is December 1962 through February 1972. The arrangement is alphabetical by subject; under each subject, entries are arranged alphabetically by title. To facilitate use, cross references and scope notes have been provided.

Binary index for assessing local bow shock obliquity.

The earth's collisionless plasma bow shock has, overall, a nonuniform structure whose magnetic profile is simultaneously that of a monotonic or laminar perpendicular shock and of a multigradient oblique shock, depending on the local orientation of the interplanetary field to the nominal shock surface. A 'pulsation index' Ip has been devised from empirical results to provide a simple convenient means of assessing the probable local character of the shock's structure; Ip = 0 or 1, according to whether local field geometry favors perpendicular or oblique structure, respectively, at a chosen point of observation on the nominal shock surface.

Wavelength dependence of the interplanetary scintillation index

Published observations of the interplanetary scintillation index m sub z are shown to vary with wavelength in a manner consistent with a smooth, power law spectrum of plasma fluctuations. This is in contrast to recent work arguing that the data require a spectrum with two separate regimes. It is concluded that published observations of m sub z are consistent with either type of density spectrum.

On Greenstadt's binary index criterion

The Greenstadt-type criterion for distinguishing between laminar and pulsating (i.e., irregular) bow shock crossings can be expressed as a critical angle between the shock normal and the magnetic field. When the field is more tangent to the shock plane than this critical angle, the shock is laminar. More importantly, the requirement of Galilean invariance of the physics underlying such a criterion reveals that the Greenstadt p index must vary inversely as the solar wind velcoity.

Simultaneous measurements of radar reflectivity and refractive index spectra in clear air convection.

Simultaneous measurements of radar reflectivity and radio refractive index at several altitudes in clear air convection have been made. The experimental data were compared with the theoretical relationship which relates the reflectivity to the refractivity spectrum. The agreement between the measurements and the theory is excellent and shows that the radar returns in clear air are the result of, and can be quantitatively described as being from, fine-scale refractivity fluctuations due to turbulent mixing. Further, the data give strong support to the -5/3 spectral decay of the refractivity spectrum in the inertial subrange.
