Spacecraft Sterilization Technology

Upon the recommendation of the scientific community, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration has established as a major goal the search for extraterrestrial life. So that the data obtained in this search will not be compromised, NASA has embarked on a program designed to prevent external contamination of the planets. This National Conference on Spacecraft Sterilization Technology was convened to bring together for exchange of knowledge those scientists, engineers, and administrators who play a role in spacecraft sterilization technology. Recognizing the rapid accumulation of knowledge in this area of scientific endeavor, it was deemed essential to broadcast this information as rapidly as possible, to establish a firm base upon which newer techniques could be built, and to provide a forum in which differences could be aired and guidelines revised or established.

Penetration of electrons and associated bremsstrahlung through aluminum targets

This paper contains a brief description of Monte Carlo programs designed to calculate the transport of fast electrons and associated bremsstrahlung through extended media. Two applications are discussed: (1) transmission of electrons through plane-parallel targets, and (2) emergence of secondary bremsstrahlung from such targets. It is shown that the predicted results are in reasonably good agreement with recent experiments for electron beams with energies up to 8 MeV incident normally on aluminum targets. Extensive new calculated data for transmission and thick-target bremsstrahlung production are presented for aluminum targets exposed to an isotropic electron flux.

Improved method of optical design

Optical system designed by third order aberration theory is significantly improved by placing it into a ray deviation design program composed of two distinct computer programs. Tests were conducted on telescope systems, an ultraviolet relay lens, and a four lens corrector system.
