✦ Synopsis

two-body orbits that approximate Dactyl's motion over the observed orbital arc depending on the assumed mass of Ida. Dactyl was discovered in solid state imaging (SSI) data on At the time of Galileo's encounter, Dactyl was found to be 85 February 17, 1994, during the long playback of approach images km from the center of Ida, moving at ȁ6 m ؒ sec ؊1 in the same from the Galileo spacecraft's encounter with the asteroid 243 direction as Ida's retrograde spin. The inclination of its orbit Ida. Forty-seven images of the Ida-Dactyl pair were obtained. is ȁ172؇ in Ida's equatorial system (IAU definition).

No confirmed possible to obtain a definitive orbit or measure of Ida's mass detections were made, all other candidate features being consisfrom the observed motion even though supplemental techniques tent with radiation hits. We deduce a manifold of osculating (search for Dactyl's shadow on Ida, changes in angular diame-185

In teletraffic applications of retrial queues only the service zone is observable. Another part of a retrial queue, the orbit, which represents the delay before repeated attempts to get service, cannot be observed. Thus, it is very important to get general results about behavior of the orbit. We inv

Two of the exponents reported in table 2 (p. 272) have been interchanged in our calculations. Thus, the coefficients and virial coefficients do not give a minimum of energy. The optimized values for k= 2 and k= 4 are here given in table .
