95-26305 Grossman As part of NSF-funded follow-up studies of the Comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 impact on Jupiter in July 1994, Dr. Grossman and his co-principal investigator, Dr. John Wang, will complete the reduction and analysis of unique radio interferometer observational data sets, which were taken to determine the effects the event had on the Jovian troposphere and magnetosphere during and after the impact. The data sets were obtained at the Very Large Array and the Australia Telescope. In particular, the investigators expect to get information on atmospheric structure and the abundances of the trace constituents ammonia, hydrogen sulfide, and water; the presence or lack of discernible features associated with the impacts; and the penetration depths of the individual fragments. Furthermore, this research is expected to improve our understanding of the response of the Jovian magnetosphere to dust loading and shocking, and the time-scales for transport of injected material and relaxation of the various physical perturbations. **

95-26305 Grossman作为NSF资助的Shoemaker-Levy 9对木星的影响的一部分，1994年7月，Grossman博士及其联合主管研究员John Wang博士将完成对独特的无线电干涉仪观测数据集的简化和分析，以确定该事件对Joviian的影响以及在Joviian的影响以及在Joviian的影响和杂音界的影响。 数据集是在非常大的阵列和澳大利亚望远镜上获得的。 特别是，研究人员希望获得有关大气结构的信息以及痕量成分氨，硫化氢和水的丰富性。与影响相关的存在或缺乏明显的特征；以及各个碎片的穿透深度。 此外，这项研究有望提高我们对Jovian磁层对灰尘载荷和令人震惊的反应的理解，以及注射材料的运输和各种物理扰动的放松的时间尺度。 **
