Aircraft crew are one of the groups of radiation workers which receive the highest annual exposure to ionizing radiation. Validation of computer codes used routinely for calculation of the exposure due to cosmic radiation and the observation of nonpredictable changes in the level of the exposure due to solar energetic particles, requires continuous measurements onboard aircraft.

Measurements of the natural radiation background with different devices and at various conditions are important from a methodological point of view in order to compare and eventually inter-calibrate different experimental sets, also to provide a reliable basis for improving the existing models for assessment of the environmental radiation in the Earth’s atmosphere.

The possibility of using Latin squares for constructing two-dimensional nonequidistant antenna arrays that can be used for development of radio telescopes and systems for remote sensing of atmospheric and lithospheric radiation has been shown. An algorithm for calculating the coordinates of elements of a non-equidistant antenna array using the values of elements of Latin squares is proposed.

In particular, we will show that the studied models really admit the Bianchi type I metrics, which are homogeneous but anisotropic space time, as their stable cosmological solutions. Hence, these models turn out to be counterexamples to the cosmic no-hair conjecture.

Preface This is the second National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP) report that provides radiation protection guidance for astronauts working in low-earth orbit. The guidance in this Report supercedes the radiation exposure limit recommendations provided in NCRP Report No. 98 that was published in 1989. Readers may find some of the radiobiological information in Report No. 98 to continue to be relevant and of interest and, therefore, Report No. 98 will continue to be available from NCRP Publications.

With a global average irradiance of 342 W/m2, the Sun is by far the largest source of energy for planet Earth. In comparison, the internal energy produced by Earth itself is only about 0.087 W/m2 (Pollack et al., 1993), which in turn is 3.5 times larger than the 0.025 W/m2 of heat produced by the burning of fossil fuels. About 31% (31 units) of the solar energy which arrives at the top of the atmosphere is reflected back to space by scattering from clouds, aerosols, and the Earth’s surface. Almost 20 units of solar radiation are absorbed in the atmosphere....

This book deals with topics in atomic and molecular structure and dynamics that are important to astronomy. Indeed, the topics selected are of central interest to the field of astronomy, many having been initiated by the needs of understanding worlds other than ours. Except for some lunar surface material returned by the Apollo missions, and material naturally delivered to us by cosmic rays, comets, and meteors, our only access to the other worlds of our astronomical Universe is through our observations of electromagnetic radiation from them.

This book covers the areas of fundamentals in energy conservation and its applications in selected industries. There are nine chapters in this book which have been written by leading experts in energy from all over the world. The topics range from energy fundamentals from cosmic radiation, tidal waves and dams. The chapters examine the potential of utilizing energy from sustainable resources and how energy consumption may be conserved from various new technologies.

The Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation from the Wilkinson Microwave Anisotropy Probe (WMAP) satellite mission (14) is one of the main sources of data about the early universe. Deciphering the CMB in terms of the density perturbations, gravity wave polarization, power spectrum and its various indices is a formidable task. It also requires the heavy CMB mathematical formalism based on General Relativity — see eg., the textbooks (17–19).
