Temperature dependence of diffusivities, preliminary definition phase

During the six months definition phase of the instrument development program, research personnel at the Center for Microgravity and Materials Research of the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) were to furnish all of the necessary labor, services, materials, and facilities necessary to provide science requirement definition, initiate hardware development activities, requirements and timetable for integration and experimental accommodation of the GAS payload into the Shuttle cargo bay and an updated ground-based research flight program proposal consistent with the NRA selection letter. These activities were to be accomplished in parallel and consistent with the necessary research and development work toward the accomplishment of the overall objectives of the selected proposal.
