Investigations on the, Zodiacal Light. Provisional Results Obtained by the
Observations of the Soviet Expedition in Egypt
of the diurnal firmament can attain up to 70 %. After termina-
tion of the expeditionary works, the Soviet Delegation has
arranged with the Observatory of Kheluan (2o kilometers from
Cairo) that their astronomers continue these observations.
For this purpose they left them the electrophotometer which
will be set up in the village Fayunv 7o kilometers from
Cairo. The Soviet scientistsdelivered lectures in the
Kheluan, Observatory. The staff of the observatory consists
of 8 astronomers and 5 seismologists, meteorologists and
others. A course of lectures on the work of the Soviet De-
legation in Egypt was delivered at the Cairo University.

Fesenkova, N.B.~Divari, V.M.Kazachevskiy, P.N.Boyko, and two
Egyptian scientists took part in an expedition to Assuan, where
they observed the zodiacal light (including photometric,
colorimetric, and photographic measurements with the polaroid
sreens and interference filters). Furthermore the distribution
of brightness and polarization of the sky was measured
systematically-Solar halo phenomena were also studied; Ye.V.
Fesenkova determined the coefficient of transparency by direct
and indirect methods. About 30000 determinations were madei The
theoretical evaluation of the data on the zodiacal light shall

ABSTRACTs The observations of the zod iacal light demand several reductions
as is well-known. Aocdrding to Blackirell Ref 1] there exists
no definite relation between the extin- --- ~or a punctiform
source according to Bouguer and the extinction for an object so
extended as the zodiaoal light. The author investigates this
question and obtains the following results. The ecliptic and
the axis of the.zodiacal light are assumed to be oriented nor-
mally to the horizon. A punctiform. source of light with the
solid angle d 6' causes thq brightness

culations that the form of-the isophots of the zodiacallight

considered andq on the other hand, the additional illumination

ABSTRACTs There are three circumstances speaking for the fact that the
zodiacal light is caused by the dust arising under the desin-
tegration of theasteroidso
le The density of the dust arising in the desintegration men-
tioned above is sufficient in order to explain the observed
brightness of the zodiacal light.
2. The polarization phenomena according to tha:results of
Pyaskovskaya " Fesenkov4 and others which are not yet.com-
pletely worked through (expedition of the Academy of Sciences,
Egypt, September,- Decembei 1957) speak 'also for the theory.
3. The observed form of the zodiacal light coincides well with
the theoretical isophots which were calculated on the basis
of the distribution of the asteroid paths with respect to the
angles of inclination.

PERIODICALs Astronomicheski Iy zhurnal, 1958,vol 35, Nr 4, pp 513-519(USSR)
ABSTRACTs The author comes to the result that the hypothesis of the
presence of free electrons in the zodiacal light is not
necessary in order to explain its polarization. He shows that
.the polarization caused by free electrons is equal to at most
43%9 6C~o or 67%, depending on the electron concentration as
a function of the distance from the sun. The observed polari-
zation of zodiacal light is at most 20-25%. This value can be
well explained by the polarization caused by dust particles
which is a very sensible one according to theoretical con-
clusions based on the theory of Mie. This fact has been con-
firmed by obser-ations of.a tmospherical aerosoles, dust tails
of comets eto.Ye.V.Pyaskovskaya-Fecenkova CRef 12,13tL57has
carried out detailed observations in the dry Egyptian desert
which permit to calculate the fraction caused by atmospheric
aerosoles, From these caloulatiorsit oan be deduced that the
Card 1/2 polarization of zodiacal light composod of dust particles is

approximately equal to 27%. Observations carried out by A.V.
Kharitonov and P.N.Boyko ZR-ef Y at the Mountain Observatory
of the Astrophysical Institute, Academy of Science, Kazakh
SSR showed that the atidospherical polarization caused by a
comet takes values up to 24%!

has the generalized brightness I, the degree of polarization p
and the corresponding orientation, and the second one having the
corresponding data 11, pl, are observed simultaneously. If Im

if OLI is the angle between the orientation of polarization of
the given sources, and 0& is the angle between the orientation
of composite po larization and that of the first source then the

ABSTRACT The author describes the correlation between the form-
ation of stars in interstellar space and the nebulo-
sities. Interstellar space is filled with gas and
dust mixed together, forming clouds and divided by
spaces almo Bt void. Interstellar space is subject
to the action of gravitational forces and of the
magnetic field, along the lines of force of which
move electrons and ions. Hydrogen and other gases
in space are in a state of ionization under the ac-
tion of the radiation of a "hot" star within 100
parseas of this st4r. As the ray-emission of such
stars is variable,'so is the volume of the ionizel
region. These changes are connected with a sharp

work in this direction. More than 40 scientific problems
were subject to study during the period 1957-1958, With

temperature conditions of the ice C:overing,.ln particular

textural and s~tructural investigation taken. The
samples proved that the crystal axis direction can be

a glacier moves, with basis planes serving as sliding

'have been-determining temperature conditions within the,

glaciers. For this purpose, holes of up to 25 m i
depth (a hole was even as.deep as rZ m) were drilled
which.showed that sub-ilacial thawing not only occurs in
summer, butin winter as well. Very interesting were
seismicsoundingB to measure ice thickness. They
showed that at a dis .tance of 2.5 lai from~ the glacier's
end the ice was i114.m thick, whereas at a distance of
,190 m, it was only 40 m thick. The! Geographical Sector
was the first organization to use electrometrical re-
search in the USSR. Thus, measurements of specific
electric resistance were made along with the sounding
of the glac ierst thickness. The movement of ice within
the,glaoier's mass was also determined. The latter
measurement said'that tho ice moves 13-15:cm slower at
a depth of 25 m than at its surface. The glaciologists
of the above sector have prepared Et schematic drawing

this unit and also made the most photos. Every day, a

PERIODICALt Astronomicheskiy zhurnal)1959,vol 36,14r 2,pp 201-207 (USSR)
ABSTRACT: The author.presents a.method for the determination of the tra-
jectories of solar rays which pass through the atmosphere in
different heights and of their refraction and extinction. The
numerical tables given in the paper were calculated according
to this method, partly by L.11. Tulenkova. These tables can-be
applied e.g. in the theory of twilight phenomena.
There are 5 tables and 2 non-Soviet references, I of which is
English and 1 French.

the investigation and conquest of space are presented. Cosmic rocket
travel and original apparatus to guarantee the survival of men, animals,
and plants inside such rockets are desRribed. 'Tsiolkovskiy speculates

on the effect of the gravity of celestial bodies on the size of any possible
inhabitants, etc. He sketches the vastness of space and trips to the planets
of the solar system.' In the preface of the book Academician V. G. Fesenkov
provides a critique of Tsiolkovskiyl s science fiction writingspreviewing his
ideas and pointing out some errors. A still more detailed appreciation and
history of Tsiolkovskiyl si.science fiction is given in the summary by
B. N. V6robl yev. The book is concluded by three appendixes and a number
