The effect of repeated Compton scatterings on the diffuse X-ray background

Recent Monte Carlo computations, based on a speculative extrapolation of the electron spectrum, suggested that repeated scatterings contribute most of the extragalactic X-ray background around 3 MeV in a Compton model. We have redone this calculation analytically with a similar electron spectrum, but with very different results. The double-scatter contribution near 3 MeV does not exceed 1 percent and cannot improve the fit to data. The effect is largest near 1 keV but will probably not be observable.

An automated and repeatable data analysis procedure for remote sensing applications

A new multispectral data analysis procedure, based on LARSYS, has been developed which substantially reduces the influence of the analyst. The analysis is automated, including the interpretation of clustering results. The classification results obtained are repeatable and not biased by analyst subjectivity during the analysis.

Repeated sharp flux dropouts observed at 6.6 earth radii during a geomagnetic storm

A number of repeated rapid flux dropouts have been observed at 6.6 earth radii by the low-energy proton detectors on board the ATS 6 satellite during the July 4-6, 1974, geomagnetic storm period. These rapid flux changes are caused by the fact that the outer boundary of the trapped radiation region moves back and forth past the satellite. Although a tilting field line configuration can cause the boundary to pass the satellite, as has frequently been reported in the literature, the boundary is shown to be distorted by a large surface wave traveling eastward around the earth. The maximum velocity of the wave was observed to be about 40 km/s.
