However, the first experiments with Co-60 irradiation showed loss of charge transfer performance at doses of 10krads [Lumb and Holland 1988b]. ... These studies showed that the charge transfer degradation was a more severe problem than conventional integrated circuit damage mechanisms. ... Another manifestation of radiation damage is that of dark current spike generation. ...

... Particle Sizes in Saturn's Rings . ... Explanation: What size particles compose Saturn's rings? ... The experiment was sensitive to ring particle sizes because ring particles much larger than a broadcast radio wavelength will reflect those radio waves away. ... The white center of Saturn's B-ring indicates that the density of ring particles was too high to make a good determination. Other radio observations indicate that some ring particles can be as large as several meters across. ...

... Many of our new results favour a conal geometry for the arrangement of emission regions and allow accurate estimates of the emission heights and polar cap locations for the emission cones to be obtained. These results indicate that pulsar emission cones may be located at around half-way out the edge of the polar cap and at altitudes of a few hundred to a thousand kilometers above the neutron star surface. ...

Chiaki Kobayashi, Ralph Sutherland How galaxies did form and evolution? - to answer this unsolved problem, we are simulating the formation and evolutionary history of galaxies in the Universe, including star formation, supernovae feedback, and chemical enrichment. Comparing the spacial distribution of elements within galaxies with observations, we will examine fundamental physical processes that drive galaxy formation. ...

... Particle Sizes in Saturns Rings . ... Credit: RSS , JPL , ESA , NASA Explanation: What size particles compose Saturn's rings? To help find out, the robot Cassini spacecraft now orbiting Saturn broadcast radio waves of three different wavelengths right through the rings to Earth earlier this month. The experiment was sensitive to ring particle sizes because ring particles much larger than a broadcast radio wavelength will reflect those radio waves away. ... NASA Official: Jay Norris. ...

Armed with these assumptions, observations, and laws, cosmologists try to build a theory of the development, or evolution, of the universe. ... Over the past 70 years, they have constructed and tested a theory that seems to explain the major properties of the universe: the Big Bang theory. ... This is an important point: The Big Bang theory allows for many different scenarios of the detailed evolution and composition of the universe. ... Because of a theory called nucleosynthesis. ...

Dwarf novae are a subclass of cataclysmic variable stars in which a late-type secondary fills its Roche lobe and transfers mass to a white dwarf primary via an accretion disc. ... Those spiral structures are very similar to the spiral shocks discovered by Sawada, Matsuda & Hachisu (1986) in 2D finite difference numerical simulations in accretion discs. In this poster, we want to compare 2D numerical simulations of accretion disc with the observations of SH2 . ...
