A theory is presented to explain the observed electron emission characteristics of a hollow‐cathode‐based plasma source. The theory is compared with measurements made in a laboratory vacuum facility and is used to predict emission characteristics

In laboratory experiments, plasma contactors are observed to collect ampere-level electron currents with low impedance. In order to extend the laboratory experience to the low-earth-orbit environment, a model of plasma contactors is being developed.

The interactions between HV systems and the low-earth-orbit environment are reviewed. The mechanism responsible for the observed arcing on negatively biased solar arrays is discussed, and calculations of the plasma density dependence on the voltage t

Experimental evidence suggests that long conduction time (≥ (R18)1 μs) plasma opening switches open more slowly than expected on the basis of magnetic forces, and perhaps even on the basis of plasma erosion. We propose that the slow opening is ass

Two synthetic peptides corresponding to the N- and C-terminal halves of a 23 amino acid sequence representing an immunodominant domain of the simian immunodeficiency virus of macaque origin (SIVmac) were examined for conformational preferences in aqu

Recent reports have indicated the possibility that HIV-2 has been introduced into groups at risk for AIDS in Brazil. We studied sera collected in 1987 and 1988 from 1,821 at-risk individuals from diverse regions in Brazil. Of the 1,821 sera, 367 (20%

A theory is developed to account for the observed properties of discharges of solar arrays immersed in plasma. The theory is based on the assumption that a thin layer of insulating contaminant covers any metallic surface exposed to the plasma. Quanti

The injection of deaggregated human gamma-globulin (DHGG) into mice results in the establishment of specific immunologic unresponsiveness in T and B lymphocytes. However, the additional injection of bacterial lipopolysaccharide (LPS) 3 hr later conve

The injection of deaggregated human gamma-globulin (DHGG) into A/J mice results in the establishment of a state of unresponsiveness to subsequent challenge with immunogenic aggregated human gamma-globulin (AHGG). Administration of the B cell activato

We present a theory for the magnitude of blowoff currents measured in electrostatic discharge of spacecraft materials. Observed currents are far larger than can be explained by simple space-charge-limited current calculations. However, a model based
