KamLAND Verifies the Sun
| Title |
KamLAND Verifies the Sun |
| Explanation |
A large sphere beneath Japan has helped verify humanity's understanding of the inner workings of the Sun [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap971028.html ]. The KamLAND sphere [ http://kamland.lbl.gov/Pictures/ ], shown above during construction in 2001, fails to detect [ http://hep.stanford.edu/neutrino/KamLAND/Nontechnical/detection.html ] fundamental particles [ http://particleadventure.org/particleadventure/frameless/fundamental.html ] called anti-neutrinos [ http://hep.stanford.edu/neutrino/KamLAND/Nontechnical/intro.html ] that are known to be emitted by nearby nuclear reactors around Japan [ http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ja.html ]. This triumphant failure can best be explained by neutrinos oscillating [ http://hep.stanford.edu/neutrino/KamLAND/Nontechnical/oscillations.html ] between different types. KamLAND [ http://hep.stanford.edu/neutrino/KamLAND/ ]'s results bolster previous neutrino oscillation [ http://www.ps.uci.edu/~superk/nuosc.html ] claims including that from the Sudbury detector [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap010710.html ], a similar large sphere [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap010225.html ] beneath Canada [ http://www.cia.gov/cia/publications/factbook/geos/ca.html ] designed to detect all types of neutrinos [ http://www.ps.uci.edu/~superk/neutrino.html ] from the Sun [ http://antwrp.gsfc.nasa.gov/apod/ap980605.html ]. Thus, leading astrophysicists now consider the long standing solar neutrino deficit problem [ http://math.ucr.edu/home/baez/physics/ParticleAndNuclear/solar_neutrino.html ] as finally solved. A new mystery that replaces it is to find a new Standard Model [ http://particleadventure.org/particleadventure/frameless/standard_model.html ] for particle physics [ http://particleadventure.org/particleadventure/ ] that fully explains neutrino oscillations. |

Bay of Fundy
PIA01912
Sol (our sun)
ASTER
| Title |
Bay of Fundy |
| Original Caption Released with Image |
The highest tides on Earth occur in the Minas Basin, the eastern extremity of the Bay of Fundy, Nova Scotia, Canada, where the tide range can reach 16 meters when the various factors affecting the tides are in phase. The primary cause of the immense tides of Fundy is a resonance of the Bay of Fundy-Gulf of Maine system. The system is effectively bounded at this outer end by the edge of the continental shelf with its approximately 40:1 increase in depth. The system has a natural period of approximately 13 hours, which is close to the 12h25m period of the dominant lunar tide of the Atlantic Ocean. Like a father pushing his daughter on a swing, the gentle Atlantic tidal pulse pushes the waters of the Bay of Fundy-Gulf of Maine basin at nearly the optimum frequency to cause a large to-and-fro oscillation. The greatest slosh occurs at the head (northeast end) of the system. The high tide image (top) was acquired April 20, 2001, and the low tide image (bottom) was acquired September 30, 2002. The images cover an area of 16.5 by 21 km, and are centered near 64 degrees west longitude and 45.5 degrees north latitude. With its 14 spectral bands from the visible to the thermal infrared wavelength region, and its high spatial resolution of 15 to 90 meters (about 50 to 300 feet), ASTER images Earth to map and monitor the changing surface of our planet. ASTER is one of five Earth-observing instruments launched December 18, 1999, on NASA's Terra satellite. The instrument was built by Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry. A joint U.S./Japan science team is responsible for validation and calibration of the instrument and the data products. The broad spectral coverage and high spectral resolution of ASTER provides scientists in numerous disciplines with critical information for surface mapping, and monitoring of dynamic conditions and temporal change. Example applications are: monitoring glacial advances and retreats, monitoring potentially active volcanoes, identifying crop stress, determining cloud morphology and physical properties, wetlands evaluation, thermal pollution monitoring, coral reef degradation, surface temperature mapping of soils and geology, and measuring surface heat balance. The U.S. science team is located at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif. The Terra mission is part of NASA's Science Mission Directorate. Size: 16.5 by 21 kilometers (10.2 by 13 miles) Location: 45.4 degrees North latitude, 64 degrees West longitude Image Data: ASTER bands 3, 2, and 1 Original Data Resolution: 15 meters (49.2 feet) Dates Acquired: September 30, 2002 |
