We have coadded the IRAS data on a sample of 188 multiple-nucleus and morphologically peculiar Markarian galaxies noted as “interacting” in the compilation of Mazzarella and Balzano (1986). We have increased the number of objects in this sample with 60μm and 100μm IRAS detections by a factor of two from what is available in the Point Source Catalog, allowing the determination of far-infrared (FIR) luminosities and colors for over 130 morphologically peculiar Markarian galaxies. The galaxies in this sample have diameters less than 2′, and thus were seen as point sources by IRAS. All far-infrared properties discussed here apply to the entire multiple-nucleus or peculiar system. These data provide a unique opportunity to study the far-infrared properties of mergers which have prior indications of starburst or Seyfert activity as evidenced by their ultraviolet excess.

We report a search for masers from the A-doublet of the ground-state of OH at 18cm, carried out with the Jodrell Bank Lovell Telescope and with the 25m Dwingeloo telescope. All objects north of δ = −20° which appear in the IRAS Point Source Catalog with fluxes > 1000 Jy at 60μm and 100μm were observed in all four lines and both circular polarisations over the required velocity range. Preliminary results of 52 maser sources are reported here.

The quantitative assay of radionuclides present in steel samples is required for the environmental safety as well as in the process control and quality control of the finished products. The standard sources should also be prepared in the required size and shape as that of the sample, for the efficiency calibration of the HPGe detector system. A method was developed and tested to use 152Eu point source for the determination of efficiency of an extended steel disk source using HPGe detector system. Standard point sources of 152Eu were prepared by transferring known amount of 152Eu activity by weight. Standard steel disk sources of required dimensions were also prepared by distributing uniformly the standard activity of 152Eu on both sides of the inactive steel disk. The extrapolated efficiency of the steel disk sample was determined using the efficiency of the 152Eu point source and it was compared with the efficiency determined using the standard sources of 152Eu prepared on the steel disks. The two efficiency calibration curves matched very well within the experimental limits. Using this efficiency calibration, a few steel samples were analyzed for the radionuclides present in them. The detections limits for most of the nuclides were much less than the specified limits. The method can further be extended for other types of geometries with suitable modifications for the changes in thickness and attenuation corrections.

Neusiedlersee (in German) / Fertö tó (in Hungarian) is a shallow lake at the Austro-Hungarian border. In the late 1970s, the question arose what to do in order to protect the lake against eutrophication. A preliminary report established the need for point-source control as well as gave first estimates for non-point source inputs. The proposed point-source control was quickly implemented, non-point sources were - among other topics - studied in detail in the period 1982 - 1986. The preliminary work had shown, based on integrated sampling and data from literature, that the aeolic input outweighed the one via water erosion (work was for totP only). In contrast to this, the 1982 - 1986 study showed that (a) water erosion by far dominates over aeolic inputs and (b) the size of nonpoint-source inputs was assessed for the largest catchment area in pronounced detail, whereas additional estimates were undertaken for smaller additional catchment areas. The methods as well as the results are presented in the following. The paper concludes with some remarks on the present management practice of nonpoint-source inputs.

Stars in the earliest phases of their formation, i.e., those accreting the main component of their final mass, are deeply embedded within dense cores of dust and molecular material. Because of the high line-of-sight extinction and the large amount of circumstellar material, stellar emission is reprocessed by dust into long wavelength radiation, typically in the far-infrared and sub-millimeter bands. Consequently, the youngest sources are strong submillimeter continuum sources, and often undetectable as point sources in the near-infrared and optical. The most deeply embedded of these sources have been labelled “Class 0” sources by André, Ward-Thompson, & Barsony (1994), in an extension of the spectral energy distribution classification scheme first proposed by Adams, Lada, & Shu (1987).

The conventional method for waste load allocations (WLA) employs spatial-differentiation, considering individual point sources, and temporal-integration, using a constant flow, typically 7Q10 low flow. This paper presents a watershed-based seasonal management approach, in which non-point source as well as point sources are incorporated, seasonal design flows are used for water quality analysis, and WLA are performend in a watershed scale. The strategy for surface water quality modeling in the watershed-based approach is described. The concept of seasonal discharge management is discussed and suggested for the watershed-based approach. A case study using the method for the Des Moines River, Iowa, USA is conducted. Modeling considerations and procedure are presented. The significance of non-point source pollutant load and its impact on water quality of the river is evaluated by analyzing field data. A water quality model is selected and validated against field measurements. The model is applied to projections of future water quality situations under different watershed management and water quality control scenarios with respect to river flow and pollutant loading rate.

AbstractWe present the first results of a multiwavelength study of IRAS galaxies with excess radio emission. The sample was selected by cross-correlating the IRAS Faint Source Survey (for |b| ≥ 50°) and the Point Source Catalogue (for 10° < |b| < 50°) with the Texas radio survey. Recent optical (imaging and spectroscopic) and radio (VLA) observations are discussed. These observations will be used to investigate possible connections between radio galaxy activity, star formation and galaxy interactions.
