-A Fourier spectrometer of the Michelson interferometer variety has been constructed for the study of the far infrared solar spectrum through the stratosphere at resolutions down to 0.5 cm-1. Details of the design, construction and performance of this balloon-borne system, both optical and electronic, are given. The instrument was first flown during August 1965. Despite some difficulties, the i...

Previous research has investigated the effects of nontarget objects (NTOs) on reach trajectories, but their effects on eye-hand coordination remain to be determined. The current investigation utilized an eye-hand coordination paradigm, where a reaching and grasping task was performed in the presence of an NTO positioned exclusively in the right or left workspace of each right-handed participant...

A major problem in solving multi-waves inverse problems is the presence of critical points where the collected data completely vanishes. The set of these critical points depend on the choice of the boundary conditions, and can be directly determined from the data itself. To our knowledge, in the most existing stability results, the boundary conditions are assumed to be close to a set of CGO sol...

Fundamental astronomical questions on the composition of the universe, the abundance of Earth-like planets, and the cause of the brightest explosions in the universe are being attacked by robotic telescopes costing billions of dollars and returning vast pipelines of data. The success of these programs depends on the accuracy of automated real time processing of the astronomical images. In this ...
