Flight Performance of the HEATRigidity

چکیده
The HEAT (High Energy Antimatter Telescope) instrument was successfully own by high altitude balloon in May 1994. HEAT combines a new magnet spectrometer, comprised of a two-coil superconducting magnet and precision drift tube hodoscope, with a transition radiation detector and electromagnetic shower counter for particle identiication. Flight data are presented which demonstrate that the spectrometer provides a mean maximum detectable rigidity (MDR) of 170 GV for electrons observed during the HEAT ight, suucient to determine the rigidity of cosmic ray electrons and positrons at energies up to 50 GeV.

Effects of Flight Dynamics on Performance of One Axis Gimbal System, Considering Disturbance Torques
The gimbal stabilization mechanism system is used to provide the stability to an object mounted on the gimbal by isolating it from the base angular motion and vibration. In this paper the model of one axis gimbal system with dynamics flying object is introduced. The gimbal torque relationships are obtained using Newton’s second law equation on the assumption that gimbal is rigid body. The syste...
متن کاملFuzzy Model of Human’s Performance for Guarding a Territory in an Air Combat
This paper proposes a new method for a three dimensional fuzzy model of pilot's performance for guarding a territory with a short-distance between two aircraft in an air combat task with a gun. A third-order nonlinear point mass vehicle model is considered for an aircraft's flight dynamics. The desired value of the velocity, the flight path and the heading angles are obtained from some derived ...
