The atmosphere above Mauna Kea at mid-infrared wavelengths
… at the James Clerk Maxwell Telescope (JCMT) on Mauna Kea, Hawaii from December, 2000 to March, 2001. These results include comparisons with other measures of water vapour abundance available on the summit of Mauna Kea and a comparison with a theorteical curve-of-growth calculated from a new …

Aufbau und Entwicklung des Vulkans Mauna Kea anhand von gesteinsmagnetischen und magneto-mineralogischen Untersuchungen an Kernen des “Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project” (HSDP-2)
… der zwei größten Schildvulkane der Erde, des Mauna Keas und Mauna Loas auf Hawaii und ermöglicht somit einen Zugang zu einem geowissenschaftlichen Archiv von Lavaeinheiten des Mauna Kea Vulkans, die einen Zeitraum von ca. 420 ka umfassen. Das generelle Ziel des HSDP, ist ein besseres …

Die syn- bis post-magmatische Entwicklung des Mauna Kea/Hawaii, USA : Interpretation geophysikalischer Bohrlochdaten und petrophysikalischer Kerndaten aus der Tiefbohrung 'Hawaii Scientific Drilling Project, HSDP-2'
… primary and secondary evolution of the volcano Mauna Kea. This is achieved in different steps, namely (1) a re-classification of the current lithostratigraphic profile on the basis of the log data, (2) the combination of various core measurements and logging data, and finally (3) by setting up a …

Neon, Helium and Argon isotope systematics of the Hawaiian hotspot
… Project (HSDP) core, surface samples from Mauna Kea, Mauna Loa, Kilauea, Hualalai, Kohala and Haleakala as well as lavas from a deep well on the summit of Kilauea were investigated. Noble gases, especially helium, are used as tracers for mantle reservoirs, based on the assumption that high …

Near-Infrared Spectroscopy of Near-Earth Asteroids: 3122 Florence, (357439) 2004 BL86, 1036 Ganymed, and 4055 Magellan
… Infrared Telescope Facility (IRTF), located at Mauna Kea, Hawaii, was used to measure long wavelength cross-dispersed (LXD) spectra of these four asteroids with SpeX mode. The measured spectra wavelength ranged from 1.67-4.2 μm, which includes the 3-μm feature attributed to water/hydroxyl. The …

The endless mantra : innovation at the Keck Observatory
… 1 0-meter telescopes situated near the apex of Mauna Kea on the big island of Hawaii. Three main innovations keep the observatory competitive. The observatory contains the first modem active optics-controlled segmented primary mirror, principally designed by Dr. Jerry Nelson. Though it currently …

Astronomical studies of solar system bodies 2060 Chiron and 1 Ceres
… were successfully obtained at the 3-m IRTF on Mauna Kea and 2-m Faulkes North Telescope at Haleakala. The IRTF lightcurve shows a solid-body detection of Chiron's nucleus with a chord lasting 16.04 seconds, corresponding to a chord length of 158±14 km. Symmetric, dual extinction features in the …

Origin of geochemical heterogeneity in the mantle : constraints from volcanism associated with Hawaiian and Kerguelen mantle plumes
… in Kerguelen Archipelago) and Hawaiian plume (Mauna Kea, East Molokai and West Molokai volcanoes) to understand what processes contributed to the geochemical variations observed in Kerguelen and Hawaiian lavas and the geochemical structure of the mantle beneath them. Mt. Capitole is in the …
