Further studies of the Saturnian magnetosphere and planetary magnetic field by Voyager 2 have substantiated the earlier results derived from Voyager 1 observations in 1980. The magnetic field is primarily that of a centered dipole (moment = 0.21 gauss-RS(3); where one Saturn radius, RS, is 60,330 kilometers) tilted approximately 0.8 degrees from the rotation axis. Near closest approach to Satur...

Our piece of cosmic real estate, the heliosphere, is the domain of all human existence -an astrophysical case history of the successful evolution of life in a habitable system. By exploring our global heliosphere and its myriad interactions, we develop key physical knowledge of the interstellar interactions that influence exoplanetary habitability as well as the distant history and destiny of o...

Previous estimates of the mean zonal flow on Jupiter from Voyager images by Ingersoll et al. (1981, J. Geophys. Res. 86, 8733-8743) and by Limaye et al. (1982, J. Atmos. Sci. 39, 1413-1432) showed good agreement in the locations of the easterly and westerly jets but differed somewhat in magnitude. Recent measurements of the high-speed jet located near 24 deg N (planetographic) latitude by Maxwo...

This paper presents a new approach for constructing libraries for building processing-intensive multimedia software. Such software is currently constructed either "from scratch" or by using high-level libraries. We have found that the second approach produces inefficient code, while the first approach is time-consuming. We therefore designed and implemented Dalí, a set of reusable, high-perform...

nutrient totals, not the contents of the recipe or menu, are saved; this limitation may necessitate keeping a printout that defines the menu or recipe. An additional limitation of this program is that, while the original and especially the expanded database are large, both lack common products and both should be more specific. For example, products containing Nutrasweet are not included; cucumb...
