JPL Innovation Foundry

Space science missions are increasingly challenged today: in ambition, by increasingly sophisticated hypotheses tested; in development, by the increasing complexity of advanced technologies; in budgeting, by the decline of flagship-class mission opportunities; in management, by expectations for breakthrough science despite a risk-averse programmatic climate; and in planning, by increasing competition for scarce resources. How are the space-science missions of tomorrow being formulated? The paper describes the JPL Innovation Foundry, created in 2011, to respond to this evolving context. The Foundry integrates methods, tools, and experts that span the mission concept lifecycle. Grounded in JPL's heritage of missions, flight instruments, mission proposals, and concept innovation, the Foundry seeks to provide continuity of support and cost-effective, on-call access to the right domain experts at the right time, as science definition teams and Principal Investigators mature mission ideas from “cocktail napkin” to PDR. The Foundry blends JPL capabilities in proposal development and concurrent engineering, including Team X, with new approaches for open-ended concept exploration in earlier, cost-constrained phases, and with ongoing research and technology projects. It applies complexity and cost models, project-formulation lessons learned, and strategy analyses appropriate to each level of concept maturity. The Foundry is organizationally integrated with JPL formulation program offices; staffed by JPL's line organizations for engineering, science, and costing; and overseen by senior Laboratory leaders to assure experienced coordination and review. Incubation of each concept is tailored depending on its maturity and proposal history, and its highest-leverage modeling and analysis needs.

Ni-Mo电沉积层的组成和结构

利用Ｘ射线光电子谱（ＸＰＳ）研究了Ｎｉ－Ｍｏ沉积层的组成元素及其价态和深度分布，用扫描电子显微镜（ＳＥＭ）、Ｘ射线衍射技术（ＸＲＤ）和电子探针显微分析技术（ＥＰＭＡ）研究了电沉积Ｎｉ－Ｍｏ合金层的形貌、结晶状态、组成元素分布情况。结果表明，电沉积Ｎｉ－Ｍｏ合金层呈现亮色，表面比较均匀。电沉积层为非晶结构，２θ在４０°～５０°间有一弥散对称峰。沉积层中的Ｎｉ和Ｍｏ为零价态，它们的结合能分别为８５２．８ｅＶ和２２８．２ｅＶ。沉积层的真实组成（相对原子百分浓度）为：Ｎｉ５０．８６％，Ｍｏ２２．６３％，Ｏ２６．５１％。     

MiniGUI在VxWorks中的应用及编程方法研究

VxWorks是风河公司设计开发的一种实时嵌入式操作系统,具有高可靠性和实时性。通常VxWorks不包含图形用户界面,这导致系统不易操作,为了实现图形用户界面,本文将MiniGUI应用在VxWorks中。首先本文对WindML、MiniGUI进行了介绍并对编程方法进行了研究和改进,然后实现了一个较复杂的图形用户界面。这种方法使系统易于操作,为VxWorks系统的应用带来了便利,而且不影响VxWorks系统的实时性能。另外对编程方法的改进可以提高图形用户界面的开发效率,便于代码的维护和二次开发。     

Hard X-ray observations of Cygnus X-1 with the MISO telescope

The black hole candidate Cygnus X-1 was observed in the hard X ray - soft γ ray energy range by the MISO telescope on two different occasions: in September 1979 and May 1980. We have measured two hard X-ray states of the source: in 1979 the observed spectrum confirms the superlow state measured in the same period by the HEAO-3 satellite, while in 1980 the MISO X-ray data are consistent with the so called low state of Cygnus X-1. In both occasions, no γ -ray excess has been observed above 200 KeV.     

定几何二元倒置"X"型混压式超声速进气道实验

针对一种定几何二元倒置“X”型布局的混压式进气道进行了风洞吹风实验,得到了进气道的性能并进行了分析。结果表明,随着来流马赫数的增加,进气道总压恢复系数不断减小,流量系数却先增加,在设计点达到最大值后减小。当迎角变化时,迎背风侧进气道呈现不同的特性,在小迎角α<6°状态下,背风侧进气道总压恢复系数先上升后下降,迎风侧进气道总压恢复系数却保持一直缓慢下降,在流量系数方面,背风侧进气道流量系数一直增加而迎风侧减小,但两侧总的流量变化不大;在大迎角(α=6~9°)状态下,背风侧进气道总压恢复系数和流量系数均下降剧烈,而迎风侧进气道总压恢复系数虽有下降但流量系数却有所上升。本文为倒置”X”型进气道的设计提供了实验依据。

LiXAlF6:xCe3+(X=Ca,Sr,Ba)的发光研究

光激励发光材料一直是人们竞争研究的对象。为在较短的时间内在发光中心存储更多的电子，要寻找一种荧光材料作为光激励发光材料的增感材料，使光激励发光材料敏化，从而提高光激励发光强度，这是提高激发光源利用率的最佳途径。通过对用紫外光源作激发源的光激励发光材料发光机理的研究，确定在紫外波段靠近短波方向的光可能使这种光激励发光材料敏化。Ce^3＋在氟化物体系中的发射通常位于紫外波段，对Ce^3＋掺杂浓度为x的LiXAlF6：xCe^3＋（X=Ca，Sr，Ba，x=0．002～0．012mol）一系列荧光材料作了研究，研究其发光是否在紫外波段，哪种基质更适合需要。采用高温固相法制备，研究该3种化合物的发射光谱及发射光谱随Ce^3＋掺杂浓度的变化。结果找到了最有可能作为用紫外光源作激发源的光激励发光材料的最佳Ce^3＋掺杂浓度的基质LiBaAlF6：xCe^3＋（x=0．010mol）。
