Jeffrey R. Long. Jeffrey Robert Long is a professor of chemistry at the University of California, Berkeley known for his work in metal−organic frameworks and molecular magnetism. He was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2019 and is the 2019 F. Albert Cotton Award recipient. His research interests include: the synthesis of inorganic clusters and porous materials, investigating the electronic and magnetic properties of inorganic materials; metal-organic frameworks, and gas storage/capture.

Early life and education 
Jeffrey Long was born in Rolla, Missouri on May 15, 1969. He is the son of Gary J. Long, Prof. Emeritus of Chemistry at the Missouri University of Science and Technology, an expert in Mössbauer spectroscopy.  He received his Bachelors of Arts from Cornell University in Chemistry (summa cum laude) and Mathematics (cum laude) in 1991. While an undergraduate student, he worked alongside Prof. Roald Hoffmann on the application of molecular orbital theory in determining solid-state band structure of metal carbides. He went on to do graduate studies with Prof. Richard H. Holm at Harvard University where he studied the structure and electronic properties of transition metal chalcogenide clusters, earning his PhD in 1995. After continuing with Richard Holm as a postdoctoral fellow, in 1996 he then went on to do post-doctoral studies with Prof. Paul Alivisatos at the University of California, Berkeley.

Independent career 
Long began his independent career at the University of California, Berkeley in 1997, where he expanded his work to include studies on Prussian blue analogs and metal cyanide coordination clusters with an emphasis on their magnetic properties. He has contributed significantly to the field of molecular magnetism, most notably in the synthesis and characterization of a linear cobalt(II) complex exhibiting a non-Aufbau ground state, the characterization of radical-bridged lanthanide single-molecule magnets (SMMs),  and the isolation of atomically defined 2-D metal-halide sheets within a porous material. In the mid 2000s the focus of his research shifted towards the emergent field of Metal-Organic Frameworks (MOFs). His initial studies were focused on hydrogen storage in open-metal site manganese MOFs. His other notable works in this field include the synthesis and characterization of novel frameworks for hydrocarbon separations, the discovery of a novel cooperative mechanism for carbon dioxide capture, as well as the discovery of materials for other industrially relevant chemical separations.,

In 1968 he became director of Computer System Department at the Satellite Telemetry and Telecontrol Base, but having held the position for only one year. In 1970, he was appointed deputy director and chief engineer of Shanghai Huayin Machine Factory, which is a satellite assembling factory. He was director of 509 Institute of the Fifth Academy of the  in 1982, and held that office until 1993. He became deputy director of Science & Technology Committee of Shanghai Academy of Space flight Technology (SAST) in 1993. 

He died of an illness in Shanghai, on December 14, 2019, aged 84.

Contributions
Meng contributed to the design of the computer system for "Dong Fang Hong I" satellite's ground telemetry and telecontrol center and network. He was responsible for developing the CK-1 Technical Experiment Satellite, which had been successfully launched three times. He was the chief engineer of the FY-1 and FY-3, China's first weather satellites. The successful launch of the satellites FY-1A and FY-1B made China the third country to successfully develop a Sun-synchronous orbit meteorological satellite. He successfully developed the fully digital 3-axis-stabilized attitude control system and the folded solar array, a first in China. He contributed to the innovation of remote sensing technology, i.e. the number of detecting channels is raised to 10, which reaches the advance level in the world. He successfully developed the satellite-carried computer with the capability of self-trouble-diagnosis and the capability of system reorganization.

Rocketdyne AR2. The Rocketdyne AR2, also known by the military designation LR42, was a family of liquid-fuelled rocket engines designed and produced in the United States (US) during the 1950s and 1960s.

Design and development
The Rocketdyne division of North American Aviation developed a relatively small liquid-fuelled rocket engine for thrust augmentation of manned aircraft during the late 1950s. The AR2 is a single-chamber rocket engine burning kerosene (JP-4 or JP-5) jet fuel, oxidised with 90% High Test Peroxide (H2O2 / HTP), allowing the engine to use the same fuel as an aircraft fuel system. The variable-thrust AR2 is a direct development of the fixed thrust AR1, which was given the military designation LR36.

The AR2-3 had variable-thrust and single lever throttle control, regulating flow of oxidiser to the turbo-pump gas-generator and thus flow of propellants to the combustion chamber.

Operational history
Initial flight trials were carried out attached to the belly of North American F-86F-30-NA Sabre (52-4608 / FU-608) re-designated F-86F(R), boosting performance to a top speed of M1.22 at .

The AR2-3 was evaluated in 1999 as part of the Future-X Demonstrator Engine project, for possible use in the Boeing X-37 Reusable Upper Stage Vehicle at a thrust of , with a specific impulse of 245 seconds.

Variants
AR-1 (YLR36-NA-2) Initial fixed-thrust variant.
AR2-1 (YLR42-NA-2) prototype, test and development variable-thrust engines.
AR2-2test and development engines.
AR2-3Production engines for research and development projects like the NF-104A.
