利用66个OH megamaser的光度和它们的宿主星系的红外光度之间的相关关系,得到log L(OH)=1.71log L(IR)-17.67,即L(OH)α[L(IR)]1。71.这个结果介于Baan所得到的L(OH)α[L(IR)]2和Kandalian所得到的L(OH)α[L(IR)]1.38的结果之间.由于统计时所取的样本数最多,因此结果更能反映实际情况.进一步,可把这66个OH megamaser分为两类;第一类为L(OH)<102L(?)的小光度OH megamaser,小光度OH megamaser包含了14个OH megamaser;第二类为L(OH)≥102L的大光度OH megamaser,大光度OH megamaser包含了52个OHmegamaser.研究结果表明,小光度OH megamaser的光度和它们的宿主星系的红外光度之间相关关系为L(OH)α[L(IR)]1.43,与Kandalia所得到的结果相接近.大光度OH megamaser的光度和它们的宿主星系的红外光度之间的相关关系为L(OH)α[L(IR)]2,与Baan所得到的结果相一致. 相似文献

OH 17.7 − 2.0 is a post-asymptotic giant branch star that is of great interest. The 1612-MHz OH emission from OH 17.7 − 2.0 is characterized by a double-peaked spectrum. Such a line profile has been assumed to represent maser emission from an expanding circumstellar shell. A new VLBI observation of the OH maser in OH 17.7 − 2.0 has been made using the European VLBI Network, and a relative position map of the eight OH maser spots has been obtained. Using the relative position map, it is found that the eight OH maser spots are distributed on an expanding circumstellar shell. The parameters of the expanding circumstellar shell have been obtained. 相似文献

Simultaneous measurements of the night airglow OI 5577 Å and OH (8,3) band have been carried out at Cachoeira Paulista (23°S, 45°W), Brazil since 1976. Cross correlation analyses between the nocturnal variations of these emissions and also with the OH rotational temperature (ROT) for various time shifts are presented. It is found that OH (8,3) is well correlated with ROT but with a time lag of about 1 h. The variations of OI 5577 Å lead OH (8,3) by about 2–3 h and ROT covaries with 5577 Å with a time lag less than 1 h. For the sake of comparison, OI 5577 Å, OH and NaD data from a number of IQSY stations have been analysed. It is noted that (1) OI 5577 Å leads OH by about 2 h at mid-latitude stations and (2) OH is well correlated with Na 5893 Å with a time lag of less than 1 h. The presence of the phase lagged correlation patterns between OH/5577 Å, OH/ROT and OH/NaD indicates vertical propagation of a wavelike perturbation of the upper atmosphere. 相似文献

The properties of a sample of extragalactic OH maser sources over a wide spectral range are discussed. Based on a sample of
22 maser galaxies it is shown that OH, HCN, and x-ray emission are closely related. On the other hand, these emissions depend
on the mass of the galactic nucleus. It is shown that the broadening of the OH emission line is caused by the rotation of
the circumnuclear disk, dense regions of which serve as the sources of OH and HCN emission. X-ray heating can excite OH and
HCN molecules. 相似文献

We present single-baseline Multi-Element Radio-Linked Interferometer Network (MERLIN) measurements of excited OH 6.0-GHz masers and methanol 6.7-GHz masers for the source W3(OH). These allow us to compare the positions of individual maser spots of these two species to ∼15 mas accuracy for the first time, and to compare these with previously published positions of ground-state OH masers near 1.7 GHz and excited-state OH masers near 4.7 GHz. There is a strong association between OH 6035-MHz and 1665-MHz masers. OH and methanol have very similar distributions, but associations of individual masers are relatively rare: most methanol 6.7-GHz masers are within 100 mas of OH 6.0-GHz masers, but only four methanol masers are within 15 mas of an OH 6.0-GHz maser. There are no correspondences of either species with excited OH 4.7-GHz masers. Zeeman splitting of the 6.0-GHz OH lines indicates an ordered magnetic field ranging from 3.2 to 14.4 mG. The magnetic fields estimated from co-propagating masers such as 6035 and 1665 MHz are generally in good agreement with each other. 相似文献

本文以W3(OH)为实例,建立了与OH脉泽成协的HII区气体-尘埃壳层的磁场模型,由此可见,致密HII区所在分子云核心中的磁场强度,与分子云核心的分子数密度之间存在指数α=1/2的幂律关系;而在HII区气体-尘埃壳层中,磁场强度与分子数密度之间存在α=1的正比关系,根据讨论可知,与OH脉泽成协的HII区,其气体-尘埃壳层的分子数密度为10~6cm~(-3)量级,磁场强度为几个mG;一旦分子数密度达10~7cm~(-3)量级,OH脉泽便将熄灭。 相似文献

We collect 3249 OH maser sources from the literature published up to April 2007, and compile a new catalog of OH masers. We look for the exciting sources of these masers and their infrared properties from IRAS and MSX data, and make a statistical study. MSX sources associated with stellar 1612 MHz OH masers are located mainly above the blackbody line; this is caused by the dust absorption of stellar envelopes, especially in the MSX A band. The mid-IR sources associated with stellar OH masers are concentrate... 相似文献

and Lulin C/2007 N3 comets in the OH molecule line at a wavelength of 18 cm are presented. An original technique for observation
data analysis has been developed. The gas production rate of OH molecules in these comets is estimated. 相似文献

The 1667-MHz ground-state hydroxyl (OH) line has been observed towards positions on Puppis A as well as in the immediate vicinity of this supernova remnant (SNR). The spectra at two positions on Puppis A show absorption lines at velocities less than +7.6 km s1 , and emission lines above this velocity. Analysis of all four 18 cm OH lines indicates that Puppis A must lie between the OH clouds seen in absorption and emission, giving it a v lsr of +7.6 km s1 . This implies that the kinematic distance to Puppis A is The OH clouds in front of Puppis A are slightly anomalously excited, as shown by analysis of the four 18 cm OH lines at the two observed positions on Puppis A. There is no evidence of any interaction of the SNR with the clouds in front of and behind it. 相似文献

We present a model for the OH megamaser emission in the starburst galaxy IIIZw35. The observed diffuse and compact OH maser components in this source are explained by a single phase of unsaturated clumpy gas distributed in a thin ring structure and amplifying background continuum. We emphasize the importance of clumpiness in the OH masing medium, an effect that has not been fully appreciated previously.The model explains why multiple bright spots are seen only at the ring tangents while smoother emission is found elsewhere. Both the observed velocity gradients and the line to continuum ratios around the ring enquire a geometry where most of the seed photons come from a continuum emission which lies outside the OH ring. To explain both the OH and continuum brightness, free-free absorbing gas is required along the ring axis to partially absorb the far side of the ring. It is proposed that the required geometry arises from an inwardly propagating ring of starburst activity. 相似文献

OH megamaser emission is known to be associated with the most central 100 parsecs of ultra-luminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs). The masers are probing dense concentrations of gas, which presumably have accumulated during the merger event forming the ULIRG. Here we summarize the results from primarily high resolution observations of the 18 cm OH lines in a few OH megamaser galaxies. The maser emission is commonly distributed in disks or tori, but there is also some evidence for other components such as outflows. The appearance of the observed emission strongly depends on the observing resolution, and new theoretical modeling has made important steps toward understanding the observed emission. The radio continuum in OH megamaser galaxies is generally starburst related, and detailed studies of the continuum could perhaps be used to date the merger. 相似文献

Observations of comets in the 18-cm OH transitions offer a means to probe gas production, kinematics, and OH excitation in
comets. We present initial results of OH observations of comet Hale-Bopp obtained with the NRAO 43 m antenna located in Greenbank,
WV. Maps of the emission provide strong constraints on the amount of quenching of the inversion of the OH ground state Λ-doublet
in the coma. Analysis of the total radio OH flux and maps of its radial brightness distribution indicate a quenched region
on the order of ∼500,000 km during March and April 1997. This large value is generally consistent with previous observations
of radio OH quenching in lower production rate comets when the high production rate of comet Hale-Bopp is considered.

The properties of OH megamaser galaxies in the x-ray and radio ranges are discussed. Based on a sample of OH megamaser galaxies it is shown that the x-ray emission and the width of the OH radio line are closely related. The line width is also related to the radio emission from megamasers, but it depends only weakly on the infrared emission and this relationship is statistically less significant. The OH line width and the radio and x-ray emissions depend on the central mass of megamasers. There is a weak correlation between the radio and x-ray emissions owing to multiple scattering of synchrotron photons and bursts from the galactic nucleus. These results indicate that an active nucleus can be dominant in OH megamaser galaxies.__________Translated from Astrofizika, Vol. 48, No. 3, pp. 421–430 (August 2005). 相似文献

Airborne and groundbased OH measurements showing short-term temporal variations in OH rotational temperature are presented. The variations are interpreted on the basis of a dynamic model of the OH emitting region; they are also employed to clarify the apparent contradiction in latitude dependence of OH intensity reported in the literature. 相似文献

In this paper, we study the galactic distribution and luminosity function of OH/IR maser sources. All the selected OH/IR sources have optical or infrared identification. Most of them are associated with late-type (>M5) Mira variables. Their derived density distribution shows a steep peak at a galactocentric distance of r0-7.5 kpc and decreases rapidly at smaller and larger R0. The FWHM of the distribution curve is 2.1 kpc. This is similar to the galactic distribution of Mira variables investigated by Glass et al.
We also derive the luminosity function of the identified OH/IR maser sources from their distances, their detection probabilities, and their corrected OH radio peak flux densities. The luminosity function ρ(L) varies as LOH−1.79. This is similar to that of unidentified maser sources. The range of luminosity of identified OH/IR sources is approximately from 0.16 Jy · kpc2 to 1000 Jy · kpc2. It is quite different from that of unidentified OH sources.
Finally, we discuss some differences and relations between identified and unidentified OH/IR maser sources. 相似文献

Average diurnal variation patterns of the nightglow hydroxyl and sodium intensities are studied using data accumulated over several years by filter photometers at stations in the tropics, and north and south temperate latitudes. These average patterns are shown to depend upon season and latitude. They are compared with the frequencies with which various patterns actually occur, and it is shown that with increasing latitude the type of variation seen on a given night becomes less predictable. The sodium emission co-varies with the OH diurnally. The annual variations of OH and Na are presented and it is shown that the sodium in the southern hemisphere behaves like the sodium in the northern hemisphere displaced by six months. The annual OH variation does not exhibit this property. The OH intensity follows the solar activity cycle, but the sodium does not. 相似文献
