Greater Underwater Propulsion Power Program - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia GUPPY IIA boats had the same outward appearance as the GUPPY II and IA, except the IIA had only three diesel exhaust outlets, while the earlier conversions had four. Those upgrades proceeded in seven variants: Fleet Snorkel, GUPPY I, GUPPY II, GUPPY IA, GUPPY IIA, GUPPY IB, and GUPPY III. The GUPPY II conversion, from 1947 to 1951, was generally similar to the GUPPY I except for the sail. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Greater_Underwater_Propulsion_Power_Program   (1357 words)

Read about String theory at WorldVillage Encyclopedia. Research String theory and learn about String theory here! String theory was originally invented to explain certain peculiarities of hadron behavior. For this reason, string theories are able to avoid problems associated with the presence of pointlike particles in a physical theory. In this sense, string theory is still in a "larval stage": it possesses many features of mathematical interest, and it may yet become supremely important in our understanding of the Universe, but it requires further developments before it can become verifiable. encyclopedia.worldvillage.com /s/b/String_theory   (1899 words)

beyondstandardmodel9.html Type IIA and Type IIB superstring theory have a vector x spinor and spinor x vector which are the gauge fields for the local supersymmetry. This is the theory for Type IIA superstrings. Since Type IIA and Type IIB string theories have only closed strings, the string states don't give rise to bosons, except of course for the graviton which is intrinsic in all closed strings. www.geocities.com /jefferywinkler/beyondstandardmodel9.html   (3355 words)

History1a Although commissioned as a Fleet Boat, she underwent two major convesions during her career.  On 13 June '53 she was re-commissioned as a Guppy IIA.  Between 1953 and 1970, she underwent many changes in equipment which further increased her operational capabilities.  In  1966, she received her new "Northern Sail", once again changing her overall appearance.       A brief amount of space should be devoted to the Guppy IIA conversions.  During the "Cold War" the submarines were called on to provide many and varied operations which required more operating range and capabilities.  Numerous submarines on both coasts conducted these operations and this continued until the SSN/SSBNs took over and the diesel boats were slowly sold, decommisisoned, and scrapped.  There were sixteeen fleet boats that were converted to Guppy IIAs. www.homestead.com /seafoxss402/History1a.html   (462 words)
