... This limited extent suggests that the currents which disturb the field flow somewhere nearby, probably near the auroral arcs. ... Any electric current, however, must flow in a closed circuit, and since it seemed to be caused (like that of the aurora) by processes taking place in distant space, Birkeland proposed that it came down from space at one end of the arc and returned to space at the other end. ... The electric energy needed to drive the current is taken from the motion, which is slowed down....

... We present several applications of the AIPS++ environment as applied to the development of the Green Bank Telescope as well as current astrophysical problems. ... In particular, the Green Bank Telescope (GBT) project requires AIPS++ as an analysis environment. To accommodate and facilitate the GBT development, several sets of tools have been fashioned within AIPS++ at several points along the data path, from general calibration routines and data quality assessment to analysis and modeling. ...
