An Integrated Strategy for the Planetary Sciences: 1995-2010
Washington DC: National Research Council 1994. Presumed First Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Good. xi 1 199 1 pages. Tables. Figures. References. Bibliography of Space Studies Board Planetary Sciences Reports. Cover has wear and soiling. An Integrated Strategy for the Planetary Sciences: 1995-2010 explains that a responsive planetary exploration program demands a mix of mission sizes ranging from comprehensive missions with multiple objectives such as Galileo and Cassini to small missions with highly constrained scientific objectives. 2 At the same time The Role of Small Missions in Planetary and Lunar Exploration concluded that a series of small missions present "the planetary science community with the opportunity to expand the scope of its activities and to develop the potential and inventiveness of its members in ways not possible within the confines of large traditional programs." In 1992 the National Research Council's Space Studies Board charged its Committee on Planetary and Lunar Exploration to: 1 summarize current understanding of the planets and the solar system; 2 pose significant scientific questions; and 3 establish priorities for scientific exploration of the planets for the period from 1995 to 2010. The scientific goals of solar system exploration include: 1 understanding how physical and chemical processes determine the major characteristics of the planets; 2 learning how planetary systems evolve; 3 determining how life developed particularly on Earth and in what ways life modifies planetary environments; and 4 discovering how simple basic laws of physics and chemistry can lead to the diverse phenomena observed in complex systems. COMPLEX maintains that the most useful programs to emphasize in the period from 1995 to 2010 are investigations of comets Mars and Jupiter and an intensive search for and characterization of extrasolar planets.

The covers are in great shape. The binding is square and tight. An organization stamp is neatly marked out on the title page. The interior pages are clean and unmarked. The book will be carefully packaged for shipment for protection from the elements. USPS electronic tracking number issued free of charge. In this new book a distinguished panel makes recommendations for the nation's programs in astronomy and astrophysics including a number of new initiatives for observing the universe. With the goal of optimum value the recommendations address the role of federal research agencies allocation of funding training for scientists competition and collaboration among space facilities and much more. The book identifies the most pressing science questions and explains how specific efforts from the Next Generation Space Telescope to theoretical studies will help reveal the answers. Discussions of how emerging information technologies can help scientists make sense of the wealth of data available are also included. Astronomy has significant impact on science in general as well as on public imagination. The committee discusses how to integrate astronomical discoveries into our education system and our national life. In preparing the New Millennium report the AASC made use of a series of panel reports that address various aspects of ground- and space-based astronomy and astrophysics. These reports provide in-depth technical detail. Astronomy and Astrophysics in the New Millenium: An Overview summarizes the science goals and recommended initiatives in a short richly illustrated non-technical booklet. Taylor Joseph H.

Health Effects to Exposure to Low Levels of Ionizing Radiation; BEIR V.
Washington DC: National Research Council 1990. Presumed First paperback Edition First printing. Trade paperback. Good. xiii 1 421 1 pages. Illustrations. References. Glossary. Index. Ex-library with usual markings. Some markings blacked out. Cover has some wear and soiling and front corner creased. The Committee was asked to conduct a comprehensive review of the biological effects of ionizing radiation focusing on information that had been reported since the conclusion of the BEIR III study and to the extent that available information permitted provide new estimates of the risks of genetic and somatic effects in humans due to low-level exposures of ionizing radiation. These risk estimates were to address both internal and external sources of radiation and the procedures by which these risk estimates were derived was to be documented. The Committee on the Biological Effects of Ionizing Radiation BEIR is a committee of the American National Research Council. It publishes reports on the effects of ionizing radiation. This book reevaluates the health risks of ionizing radiation in light of data that have become available since the 1980 report on this subject was published. The data include new much more reliable dose estimates for the A-bomb survivors the results of an additional 14 years of follow-up of the survivors for cancer mortality recent results of follow-up studies of persons irradiated for medical purposes and results of relevant experiments with laboratory animals and cultured cells. It analyzes the data in terms of risk estimates for specific organs in relation to dose and time after exposure and compares radiation effects between Japanese and Western populations.

National Research Council. Commission on LIfe Sciences. Committee on Radiological Safety in the Marshall Islands
Radiological Assessments for the Resettlement of Rongelap in the Republic of the Marshall Islands
Washington DC: National Academies Press 1994. Trade paperback. Very good. xiv 2 108 pages. Illustrations. References. Glossary. As a result of contamination by radionuclides released during nuclear weapons testing by the United States during the 1940s and 1950s the residents of Rongelap Atoll were evacuated from the Marshall Islands. This book provides an assessment of issues surrounding their resettlement and an evaluation of radiological conditions on certain Marshall Islands particularly Rongelap Atoll. On On March 1 1954 the United States conducted a nuclear test on Bikini Atoll in the northern Marshall Islands code named Bravo that led to widespread fallout contamination over inhabited islands of Rongelap Ailinginae and Utr k Atolls. Prior to Bravo little consideration was given to the potential health and ecological impacts of fallout contamination beyond the immediate vicinity of the test sites. A total of 64 people living on Rongelap Atoll including people residing on Ailinginae Atoll at the time of the blast received significant exposure to "fresh" radioactive fallout and had to be evacuated to Kwajalein Atoll for medical treatment. The Rongelap community spent the next 3 years living on Ejit Island Majuro Atoll before returning home to Rongelap in June 1957. However growing concerns about possible long-term health effects associated with exposure to residual fallout contamination on the island prompted residents to relocate again to a new temporary home on Mejatto Island on Kwajalein Atoll in 1985. The people of Rongelap are still resident on Mejatto today although parts of the community have split off to live on Ebeye Island Kwajalein Atoll and Majuro Atoll. The Rongelap community has always expressed a strong desire to return to their ancestral homeland. Through the Rongelap Resettlement Act the United States Congress approved and continued a 1996 resettlement agreement between the United States and the Rongelap Atoll Local Government and extended distribution authority for 10 years to advance resettlement. As a part of the 1996 resettlement agreement a Phase I resettlement program was initiated in 1998. The United States Department of Energy the Rongelap Atoll Local Government and the Republic of the Marshall Islands have since agreed to a Memorandum of Understanding MOU 1999 outlining shared provisions in support of resettlement. Under this agreement scientists from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory were tasked with developing individual radiation protection monitoring programs for resettlement workers and to verify the effects of the remedial actions.

Review of the Department of Energy's Inertial Confinement Fusion Program; The National Ignition Facility
W: National Academy Press 1997. Presumed First Edition First printing. Wraps. Very good. viii 55 1 pages. Footnotes. Illustrations. Acronyms and Abbreviations. Text pasted inside front cover addressed a temporary difficulty DOE had in being able to use this report. Inertial confinement fusion ICF is a type of fusion energy research that attempts to initiate nuclear fusion reactions by heating and compressing a fuel target typically in the form of a pellet that most often contains a mixture of deuterium and tritium. To compress and heat the fuel energy is delivered to the outer layer of the target using high-energy beams of laser light electrons or ions. The heated outer layer explodes outward producing a reaction force against the remainder of the target accelerating it inwards compressing the target. A sufficiently powerful set of shock waves can compress and heat the fuel at the center so much that fusion reactions occur. The energy released by these reactions will then heat the surrounding fuel and if the heating is strong enough this could also begin to undergo fusion. The aim of ICF is to produce a condition known as ignition where this heating process causes a chain reaction that burns a significant portion of the fuel. When it was first proposed in the early 1970s ICF appeared to be a practical approach to fusion power production and the field flourished. Experiments during the 1970s and '80s demonstrated that reaching ignition would not be easy. Throughout the 1980s and '90s many experiments were conducted in order to understand the complex interaction of high-intensity laser light and plasma. These led to the design of newer machines much larger that would finally reach ignition energies. The Committee for the Review of the Department of Energy's Inertial Confinement Fusion Program was formed in response to a request from the Department of Energy's DOE's Assistant Secretary for Defense Programs Victor H. Reis that the National Research Council NRC review the DOE's Inertial Confinement Fusion ICF program. The recent declaration of Science Based Stockpile Stewardship SBSS as national policy within the broader Stockpile Stewardship and Management Program implies changes in the nuclear weapons program and resulted in a DOE decision that the ICF program a component of SBSS should undergo regular evaluation to ensure its continuing quality and its capacity to contribute both to SBSS and to other national needs. The committee includes members with expertise in theoretical and experimental plasma physics theoretical and applied hydrodynamics and fluid dynamics high-energy physics nuclear physics laser physics optics and optical engineering laser-plasma interactions and computing and computer science. In addition the membership includes individuals experienced in designing building and managing large experimental facilities. One member has experience in nuclear weapons design and another is a long-time leader of a nongovernmental organization concerned with national nuclear energy and weapons policy. All committee members are recognized as leaders in their respective fields of expertise. Several have served on previous committees that have examined ICF and several have consulted for Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in various areas. The charge to the committee was as follows: Conduct an initial review to: 1 determine the scientific and technological readiness of the NIF project 2 assess the entire ICF program including program scope balance and priorities; facility operation; experimentation; theory; etc. and make recommendations to facilitate the achievement of the scientific goal which is ignition and 3 evaluate the capabilities of the ICF program in conjunction with NIF to support SBSS. This charge to the committee does not request reassessment of the desirability of the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty the necessity for SBSS or the nonproliferation aspects of ICF. Nor does it ask for recommendations about whether or not to construct the proposed NIF a decision that involves considerations beyond the scientific and technical issues considered here.
