Abstract

Chapter 1 examines the new family policy introduced in the mid-1930's as perceived in Western and in contemporary Soviet literature. The second chapter is concerned with background information on questions of fertility control and motherhood up to the introduction of the 1936 Decree. Chapter 3 provides background information on marriage, divorce and child maintenance up to the mid-1930's while Chapter 4 considers the provision of child care facilities and the implementation of "protective" labour legislation in the same period. Chapter 5 examines the reasons for the restriction of abortion in 1936 and the extent to which it was implemented successfully in the years up to 1941 and provides an assessment of its possible results, while Chapter 6 attempts to explain changes in the divorce laws and examines the implications of the new policy in practice. The seventh Chapter is concerned with-the reasons for the Government's commitment to expand rapidly child care facilities after 1936, and investigates how thoroughly these promises were carried out, as well as considering how successfully mothers were 0protected' at work by special legislation. The thesis concludes by setting out to determine how much success the new family policy enjoyed overall between 1936 and 1941, establishing the probable reasons for its introduction and establishing its likely effects on the position of women within Soviet society.

Abstract

The GMT-Consortium Large Earth Finder (G-CLEF) will be part of the first generation instrumentation suite for the Giant Magellan Telescope (GMT). G-CLEF is a general purpose echelle spectrograph operating in the optical passband with precision radial velocity (PRV) capability. The measurement precision goal of G-CLEF is 10 cm/sec; necessary for the detection of Earth analogues. This goal imposes challenging stability requirements on the optical mounts and spectrograph support structures especially when considering the instrument's operational environment. G-CLEF's accuracy will be influenced by changes in temperature and ambient air pressure, vibration, and micro gravity-vector variations caused by normal telescope motions. For these reasons we have chosen to enclose G-CLEF's spectrograph in a wellinsulated, vibration-isolated vacuum chamber in a gravity invariant location on GMT's azimuth platform. Additional design constraints posed by the GMT telescope include; a limited space envelope, a thermal leakage ceiling, and a maximum weight allowance. Other factors, such as manufacturability, serviceability, available technology, and budget are also significant design drivers. G-CLEF will complete its Critical Design phase in mid-2018. In this paper, we discuss the design of GCLEF's optical mounts and support structures including the choice of a low-CTE carbon-fiber optical bench. We discuss the vacuum chamber and vacuum systems. We discuss the design of G-CLEF's insulated enclosure and thermal control systems which simultaneously maintain the spectrograph at milli-Kelvin level stability and limit thermal leakage into the telescope dome. Also discussed are micro gravity-vector variations caused by normal telescope slewing, their uncorrected influence on image motion, and how they are dealt with in the design. We discuss G-CLEF's front-end assembly and fiber-feed system as well as other interface, integration and servicing challenges presented by the telescope, enclosure
