Mountain-Top-to-Mountain-Top Optical Link Demonstration: Part II
A mountain-top-to-mountain-top optical communications demonstration was conducted between the JPL Table Mountain Facility (TMF), Wrightwood, California, and Strawberry Peak (SP), Lake Arrowhead, California, during the months of August and September of 2000. The link was nearly horizontal at an altitude of 2 km and spanned a range of 46.8 km. A 780-nm multibeam beacon broadcast from TMF was rece...
متن کاملInversion effects on mountain lee waves
The effect of a sharp low-level temperature inversion on flow over a mountain is investigated via a series of two-dimensional idealized numerical model simulations. The main focus of the study is the effect of the inversion on the formation of lee waves, lee-wave rotors, low-level hydraulic jumps and the occurrence of wave breaking aloft. The idealized problem considered consists of an upwind v...
متن کاملObservation of an energetic radiation burst from mountain-top thunderclouds.
During thunderstorms on 20 September 2008, a simultaneous detection of gamma rays and electrons was made at a mountain observatory in Japan located 2770 m above sea level. Both emissions, lasting 90 sec, were associated with thunderclouds rather than lightning. The photon spectrum, extending to 10 MeV, can be interpreted as consisting of bremsstrahlung gamma rays arriving from a source which is...
متن کاملMOUNTAIN TOP: BEYOND-THE-HORIZON CRUISE MISSILE DEFENSE TECHNOLOGY DEMONSTRATION T Mountain Top: Beyond-the-Horizon Cruise Missile Defense
he Cruise Missile Defense Advanced Concept Technology Demonstration, known as Mountain Top, was successfully completed at Kauai, Hawaii, during January and February 1996. The demonstration featured a new type of cooperative engagement known as “forward pass,” made possible by the Cooperative Engagement Capability, in which low-flying drones were engaged beyond the horizon of an Aegis ship for g...
متن کامل3D Numerical Simulation of the Separated Turbulent Shallow Flow around a Single Side Obstacle
In this paper, the performance of Reynolds Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS) simulations was evaluated to predict the flow structure developed by the presence of a sidewall obstruction in a uniform open-channel shallow flow. The study of these flow structures is important because they present in several real world configurations, such as groynes in rivers, where the erosion processes, mass transpor...
