Single-Event Gate Rupture and Single-Event Burnout Test Results Performed on Hi-Rel Fuji Power MOSFETs: 2SK4217, 2SK4152, 2SK4155, and 2SK4158

Several newly available Hi-Rel total dose hardened power MOSFETs manufactured by Fuji Electric Device Technology Co. Ltd (FDT) in conjunction with the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) were tested for single-event gate rupture (SEGR) and single-event burnout (SEB). The safe-operating area (SOA) of the 2SK4217 (a 100 V rated device), 2SK4152 (130 V), 2SK4155 (200 V), and the 2SK4158 (250 V) were tested with silver (Ag) and xenon (Xe) ions having incident LETs of 42.2 and 53.1 MeV cm2/mg, respectively. Test results show these devices are comparable to currently available total dose hardened technology.

IUE observations of the Jovian HI Lyman alpha emission (1979 - 1982)

Observations of the Jovian H ion Lyman emission made with the IUE observatory beginning in December 1978 just before the time of the Voyager encounters and extending through January 1982 are presented. A constant disk center brightness of about 8 kR is observed for the central meridian longitude range wavelength III approximately equal 200 deg to 360 deg and a variable brightness 9-15 kR is found for the range lambda III approximately 50 deg to 150 deg. These brightness values persisted throughout the three years of observation. The hydrogen bulge near wavelength III approximately equal 100 deg appears to be a permanent feature of the Jovian atmosphere, and no long term change of the planetary Lyman emission is seen. Since the early IUE observations were made near the two Voyager encounters, this indicates that no substantial changes in the atomic hydrogen concentration or the average atmospheric conditions took place between then and now.

Infrared astronomy; Proceedings of the Symposium, Kona, HI, June 23-27, 1980

The role of infrared studies in numerous aspects of astronomy is examined. Topics include the composition of planetary atmospheres; spectrophotometric remote sensing of planets and satellites; thermal studies of planetary surfaces; infrared sources in dense molecular clouds; globules, dark clouds, and low mass pre-main sequence stars; protostellar objects; molecular hydrogen emission; and the Orion molecular cloud. Also considered are dust spectrophotometry; polarimetry of infrared sources; emission line observations of H II regions; observation and interpretation of emissions from the galactic plane; the galactic center; stellar content of extragalactic systems; star formation in galactic nuclei; and active extragalactic nuclei.

Optical features associated with the extended HI envelope of M83

Deep red Schmidt plates (127-04 + RG630) of the galaxy M83 show the presence of extensive faint optical structure well beyond the Holmberg radius of the galaxy. Digital processing has been used to bring these features out in detail. They consist of arc-like structures and clumps of H II regions, which seem to follow the H I distribution and thus are likely to participate in the warping of the H I disk.

Do the Arching HI Filaments Show in Local Reddening Data?

Probable dust counterparts of arching structures are investigated in two cases: (1) the Eridanus expanding shell; and (2) the extended Sco-Cen feature. Color excess data may be used to derive distance and dimension estimates of these structures. Color excesses from two areas SA 121 and SA 144 situated on the position of the 3.2 to 6.3 km/s velocity-slice are applied. Some stratification of the color excesses is noticed for both areas but extreme patchiness typifies particularly the dust in the SA 144 region.

The Z-dependence of the Spin Temperature of HI

Results relating to the following aspects of hydrogen clouds are presented: (1) the vertical distribution of cold H T clouds; (2) possible systematic warming of H T clouds at high absolute values of z; (3) possible increase of the fraction of warm intercloud medium H T with high absolute values of z; and (4) the effect of optical depth on previous H T emission surveys.

Radio and UV Observations of High Latitude HI

Interstellar Lyman alpha observations toward high latitude stars, which give the column density of H I between Earth and the star, and 21 cm radio observations, which give the total H I column density to and beyond the star, can be combined to map out the amount of neutral gas as a function of distance from the Sun. Observations of the 21 cm and Lyman alpha lines made toward approximately 50 high latitude OB stars are presented. These data are used to discuss the distribution of H I in the solar neighborhood.

Space plasma simulations; Proceedings of the Second International School for Space Simulations, Kapaa, HI, February 4-15, 1985. Parts 1 & 2

Space plasma simulations, observations, and theories are discussed. Papers are presented on the capabilities of various types of simulation codes and simulation models. Consideration is given to plasma waves in the earth's magnetotail, outer planet magnetosphere, geospace, and the auroral and polar cap regions. Topics discussed include space plasma turbulent dissipation, the kinetics of plasma waves, wave-particle interactions, whistler mode propagation, global energy regulation, and auroral arc formation.
