This is the final technical report for grant AFOSR-89-0147 entitled high-resolution microwave observations of solar activity. This report covers the period from 1 November 1988 to 30 April 1992. It contains the abstracts for 24 presentations at professional meetings (section 2); and reprints of 17 papers (section 4). The 24 professional presentations included meetings of the American Astronomical Society (AAS), the American Geophysical Union (AGU), the Committee on Space Research (SOSPAR), the International Astronomical Union (IAU), and the Union Radio Scientific International (URSI). The Very Large Array (VLA) and the Arecibo Observatory are the world's largest radio telescopes, each operated at enormous expense by the National Science Foundation (NSF); the 21 successful proposals with these facilities, totaling 51 days, therefore, represent an extremely efficient method of carrying out research by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research (AFOSR) that essentially funds salaries for Tufts scientists who use these facilities, analyze the data, and publish the results. Some of the topics covered include: eruptions, flares, origin, and prediction of solar activity; radio emission from coronal loops and filaments; resolution of the pre-flare, impulsive and decay phases of solar flares; x-ray emission from coronal loops and flares; the Solar Maximum Mission satellite; NASA balloon flights of high-energy solar detection; and the Yohkoh solar satellite.
