POSTER ABSTRACTSP1011. POSTER SESSION IIProf. Adil. H KhanJiwagi University India Govt. Kasturba Girls College Guna M.P.IndiaATMOSPHERE: Origin Of Atmosphere & Space Pollution (Aerosols, Clouds , Water Cycle)and study of key sources of satellites , Space Shuttle & Rockets "Aerosols is the smallest part of the atmosphere it’s activity creating unbalanced the atmosphericcomposition . The composition of the clouds Aerosols and hydrological cycle are connected withradiation In single word we can say that it’s a reaction of various exited and non exited Chemicalin the atmosphere . Aerosols origin based on soil erosion , dust particles , Val cones ,forest andthe activity of the wild life animals , human activities(Industry , Vehicle Pollution, & etc.) , suchas the burning of fossil fuel , dust storms ,Sea spray etc. In similarly the origin of aerosols iseffecting to all the part of pollution in other word we can say that aerosols is the smallest unit ofthe pollution .In the origin of aerosols is the starting process of pollution . The tiny particles(aerosols ) origin depend in to the human activity in the atmospheric planet . These aerosols startthe absorption of radiation or in other word we can say that start the reaction between theaerosols and radiation because both origin are chemically and the similarity is that both are theexited state of the chemical’s in the atmosphere . They also produce brighter clouds that are lessefficient at releasing precipitation. These in turn lead to large reductions in the parts of theradiation reaching Earth's surface, these radiation’s heating of the atmosphere, changes thecomposition of the atmospheric temperature, unbalanced rainfall, and small amount removal ofpollutants. These aerosol are creating the weaker hydrological cycle in day by day , which isconnecting directly to availability and quality of water in the river and other sources of water , amajor environmental problem of the today scenario.2142011 Kepler Science Conference - NASA Ames Research Center
POSTER ABSTRACTSP1012. POSTER SESSION IISelecting New Variable Star Targets from the Kepler Full Frame Image Variability Catalog. K. Kinemuchi 1,2, M. Still 1,2 , S. Howell 1 and R. Szabo 3 ( 1 NASA-Ames Research Center, Mail Stop 244-30, Moffett Field, CA 94035, 2 Bay Area Environmental Research Institute, 560 Third St. West, Sonoma, CA 95476, 3 Konkoly Observatory ofthe Hungarian Academy of Sciences, P.O. Box 67, H-1525 Budapest, Hungary.)Abstract: Kepler provides an unique and powerful resourcefor performing serendipitous time-domain astrophysics.However, due to telemetry restrictions,only 170,000 targets are observed each quarter, ofwhich 4% are reserved through the Guest Observer andKepler Asteroseismic Science Consortium (KASC)programs for targets of specific stellar and extragalacticinterest. There exists 10^7 sources within the Keplerfield of view brighter than Kp=21 confusion limit.For providing Kepler with the highest impact to astrophysics,survey resources are needed to aid the communityin selecting the highest value targets throughmultiwavelength, color, and timing information.One method for identifying targets of high potentialastrophysical interest is to extract variable starsfrom the Kepler Full Frame Images (FFIs). These imagesare taken principally for engineering purposes atone month intervals with 30-minutes exposure times.We can find variable objects in the Kepler field ofview from the FFI frames through difference imaging,and we performed aperture photometry to those stars.We used the eight FFI frames collected during thespacecraft commissioning phase (Quarter 0) to create acatalog of variable objects.We find over 200,000 variable objects in theKepler field, and there are a variety of pulsators, rotators,eruptive, or eclipsing stars, as well as other exoticvariable stars exhibiting subtle or large brightnesschanges over a short timescale. Kepler is currently notobserving approximately 50% of the detected variablestars from our catalog.The FFI catalog increases the number ofknown variable stars in the Kepler field and providesnew targets for astrophysical studies. It will also providea target selection resource of high value for Keplerastrophysics projects through the KASC, theGuest Observer Program, or Guest Observer Director'sDiscretionary Time during an extended Kepler mission.The catalog will be made available through theMulti-Mission Archive at STScI (MAST).2011 Kepler Science Conference - NASA Ames Research Center 215
