Book Description
This contract provided the opportunity to conduct research on several topics in the general areas of upper atmospheric physics, middle atmospheric physics, and solar physics. It also provided the opportunity to support future experimental programs within NRL's Space Physics Division such as RAIDS, SSULI, SUSIM, MAHRSI, and POAM. Support was in the form of laboratory work, data simulations, and development of algorithms for retrieving geophysical information from the listed instruments. On the SSULI task, e.g., extensive calculations of the dayglow from 834 A to 1800 A were made to estimate signal strengths and investigate the sensitivity of O+ 834 A to O+ in the F-region. Under the SUSIM task, an entirely new retrieval algorithm was developed which performs an inversion of the occultation data to determine number density profiles in a model independent manner. In addition, a great deal of work went into the development of an accurate forward model code which has been used extensively in the pre-flight phase to generate realistic simulations of the SUSIM occultation data sets. Under the task involving remote sensing at millimeter wavelengths, the META code has developed to the point where it provides accurate simulations of the ground based millimeter wave emission measurements being performed by NRL.

Book Description
In 2010, NASA and the National Science Foundation asked the National Research Council to assemble a committee of experts to develop an integrated national strategy that would guide agency investments in solar and space physics for the years 2013-2022. That strategy, the result of nearly 2 years of effort by the survey committee, which worked with more than 100 scientists and engineers on eight supporting study panels, is presented in the 2013 publication, Solar and Space Physics: A Science for a Technological Society. This booklet, designed to be accessible to a broader audience of policymakers and the interested public, summarizes the content of that report.
