The characteristics of the Mauna Kea site are reviewed. An extensive site survey by NOAO during 1984–1985 showed that the average seeing was in the 0.4–0.6 range and thatr 0 was approximately 30 cm. An image quality study at the UH 88-inch telescope in 1987 showed the free atmosphere seeing was 0.5 and the boundary layer contributed less than 0.25.Paper presented at the Symposium on the JNLT and Related Engineering Developments, Tokyo, November 29–December 2, 1988.  相似文献

High resolution strip maps of CS (J=1–0) and H51 line emission across the Orion bright bar are presented. They reveal the existence of a high density molecular layer (molecular sheet) plane parallel to the ionization front. This molecular sheet is redshifted relative to the ambient molecular cloud by about 2 km s–1. The rapid decrease of the CS emission at about 50 arc sec from the bar suggests that a shock front exists here and the sheet is a post shock layer.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.This work was carried out under the common use observation program at the Nobeyama Radio Observatory (NRO).

A logN — logS relation at 10 GHz is constructed for sources with the flat spectra 0.5 (flux densitySv –) from observations at NRO, MPIfR and others. Based on the source distribution on log (Luminosity) volume plane we obtain an epoch-depending luminosity function which explains the above relation.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.Nobeyama Radio Observatory, a branch of the Tokyo Astronomical Observatory, University of Tokyo, is a facility open for general use by researchers in the field of astronomy and astrophysics.  相似文献

The conclusions of the present paper broadly are: (a) The galactic concentration of doubles by comparing the distributions in galactic latitudes 0°<20° and >40° is nearly twice as large as the galactic concentration of stars in general. (b) The astrographic catalogues are not complete in the fainter magnitudes. (c) The large value of the ratioT:O k (observed to optical number of pairs) from Kreiken's formula shows that almost all stars in the group 0<d5 and quite a few in the other two groups, viz., 5<d10 and 10<d15 might be shown true binaries. Consequently, Aitken's working definition of a true binary should be extended if it were to include all true binaries. (d) The doubles are probably stars of Population I. (e) The logarithm to the base 10 of the cumulative counts can be represented by an empirical relationA+B(m–1.5)+C(m–1.5)2.Communication presented at the International Conference on Astrometric Binaries, held on 13–15 June, 1984, at the Remeis-Sternwarte Bamberg, Germany, to commemorate the 200th anniversary of the birth of Friedrich Wilhelm Bessel (1784–1846)  相似文献

Results of a search for new H objects in the Cepheus region are presented. The observations on which the search was based were made in 1979 and 1985 at the 40 Schmidt telescope of the Byurakan Astrophysical Observatory with a 4° objective prism. Of the 80 emission stars detected, 68 are new. Most of them are fainter than the sun in absolute magnitude. A large fraction of the emission stars discovered may be flare stars as well as T Tau and Herbig Ae/Be stars.Translated fromAstrofizika, Vol. 39, No. 1, pp. 57–65, January–March, 1996.  相似文献

The data of the line series CH3CN 8(K) – 7(K) K = 0 – 7 and line CS J = 3 – 2 were taken simultaneously. At beam size of 16 the emissions of CH3CN and CS have a common center position located near IRc2 with deviations -8 and 5. The observed data show that in Orion KL core the integrated intensities of the two species have double peaks separated by a space of 14. The 2-dimension Gaussian fitting plots (FWHM) are ellipses ofD maj = 26 andD min = 22 for CH3CN 8(K) – 7(K) K = 3 – 6 andDmaj = 39 Dmin = 31 for CS J = 3 – 2 at a distance about 450 pc. Towards the multiple line emission region of CH3CN 8(K) – 7(K) K = 3 – 6, using a simplified very large velocity gradient model to solve the statistical equilibrium and radiative transfer equations, we find to fit the observed results, the optimum physical parameters and kinetic temperatureT k 120 K, densityn(H a) 1.2 × 105 cm–3, velocity gradientV gr 92 km s–1 pc–1 and the local abundance of CH3CNF ab 3 × 10–8. However towards the region of single line emission of CS J = 3 – 2 we have to use LTE and the optical thin approximation on the assumption ofT k= 120 K to obtain the lower limits of column density and then, an averaged abundance of CS of 6 × 10–8.  相似文献

High-resolution spectral observation during the impulsive phase of a flare   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
High-resolution observations of the flare on October 21, 1989 were made with the Domeless Solar Telescope of the Hida Observatory. The following new results have been obtained: (a) during the impulsive phase of the flare, the spectral line asymmetry has spatial fine structures of 1–2; (b) for several points in the flare region the line profile alternatively changes between blue asymmetry and red asymmetry within a few seconds. A possible explanation has been suggested.  相似文献

A prime objective of this experiment was to determine whether type I or IV sources at 333 MHz contain features of small (arc sec) scale. With the VLA, our resolution was better than 4. However, we never observed any structure of size smaller than about 30, with the typical source sizes being between about 40 and 90.Many observations were simultaneous with the Trieste Astronomical Observatory records at 327 MHz. The observations were made on two days in November 1988. On 8 November the observations were of a type I storm about two hours after a major flare. On 14 November they were mostly of the main phase of a type IV event, including pulsations of a kind rarely seen, strongly circularly polarized, and having a well-defined period of about 12 s. The size of the pulsating source was about 40 by 60, and the brightness temperature was about 109 K. We compare these pulsations with those observed earlier.  相似文献

The magnetic field in solar active regions forms a highly structured pattern without an apparent length scale. We study this pattern in detail for a plage and its surroundings observed with the Swedish Solar Observatory on La Palma. The magnetogram has a resolution of about 1/3, after image optimisation. We analysed the geometric properties of isolated patches of magnetic flux. Patches with a linear size up to 3 appear to be statistically self-similar, with a fractal dimension ofD f = 1.54 ± 0.05 for the relation between area and linear size. This value agrees very well with the dimensionD f = 1.56 which is found in percolation theory for clusters of tracers placed randomly on a lattice with a tracer density below a critical threshold. The distribution of observed cluster areas also agrees with that of clusters on such a random lattice. The correspondence between properties of observations and of clusters on randomly filled lattices suggests that- well after emergence - the magnetic flux on the Sun is randomly distributed at least up to sizes of about 3 and possibly larger.  相似文献

Systematic reductions of nineteenth century observations to the system of the FK4 are discussed. Reductions made on a nightly basis are described and compared with the results obtained through the use of conventional tables. The series of observations made at the Paris Observatory from 1837 to 1881 was used to compare the two methods, and a combined system of 24 000 FK4, FK4 Sup and AGK 3R positions and proper motions provided the reference stars. The results show that for Uranus the mean error of a single observation in right ascension is ±1..33 when tables are used for the reductions, and ±1.12 when nightly reductions are made, while in declination the corresponding mean errors are ±0.88 and ±0.80. The observations of Neptune show an even greater difference between the two methods; the mean errors for the tabular and nightly reductions are ±1.57 and ±1.09 in right ascension and ±0.88 and ±0.75 in declination. Secular rates in the (0–C)'s of Uranus of –0.029/year in right ascension and ±0.030/year in declination are present when the observations are reduced with tables. These rates are reduced to –0.007/year and +0.015/year, respectively, when nightly reductions are made.Presented at the Symposium Star Catalogues, Positional Astronomy and Celestial Mechanics, held in honor of Paul Herget at the U.S. Naval Observatory, Washington, November 30, 1978.  相似文献

We have obtained high angular resolution ( 3), and high sensitivity maps of IRC+10216. SiC2 is found both in a spherical shell and in the very central region, indicating it is formed both in the inner envelope close to the star, and in the outer shell. The molecules SiS and CS are mostly found in the inner parts of the envelope, but are still detectable in the outer region (r 15) where the products of photochemistry are found. The maps show that IRC+10216 has a very clumpy envelope, with strong departures from spherical symmetry; an axis oriented NS-SW (P.A. 20°) can be seen in all maps. The radial brightness distribution of CS has secondary maxima, at the radius where the SiC2 shell has its peak emission. A preliminary map shows CN in the same shell, but also in a still larger outer shell. Time variations in the mass loss rate, could be invoked to explain the multiple shell structure of this envelope.  相似文献

A general Hamiltonian for a rotating Moon in the field of the Earth is expanded in terms of parameters orienting the spin angular momentum relative to the pricipal axes of the Moon and relative to coordinate axes fixed in the orbital plane. The effects of elastic distortion are included as modifications of the moment of inertia tensor, where the magnitude of the distortion is parameterized by the Love numberk 2. The principal periodic terms in the longitude of a point on the Moon due to variations of the tide caused by the Earth are shown to have amplitudes between 3.9 × 10–3 and 1.6 × 10–2 with a period of an anomalistic month, 3.0 × 10–4 and 1.2 × 10–3 with a period of one-half an anomalistic month and 2.4 × 10–4 and 9.6 × 10–4 with a period of one-half of a nodical month. The extremes in the amplitudes correspond to rigidities of 8 × 1011 cgs and 2 × 1011 cgs, respectively, the former rigidity being comparable to that of the Earth. Only the largest amplitude given above is comparable to that detectable by the projected precision of the laser ranging to the lunar retrorereflectors, and this amplitude corresponds to an improbably low rigidity for the Moon. A detailed derivation of the free wobble of the lunar spin axis about the axis of maximum moment of inertia is given, where it is shown that elasticity can alter the period of the free wobble of 75.3 yr by only 3 × 10–4 to 10–3 of this period. Also, the effect of elasticity on the period of free libration is completely negligible by many orders of magnitude. If the Moon's rigidity is close to that of the Earth there is no effect of elasticity on the rotation which can be measured with the laser ranging and, therefore, no elastic properties of the Moon can be determined from variations in the rotation.Currently on leave from the Dept. of Physics, University of California, Santa, Barbara, California.Communication presented at the conference on Lunar Dynamics and Observational Coordinate Systems held January 15–17, 1973 at the Lunar Science Institute, Houston, Tex., U.S.A.  相似文献

The SOUP experiment demonstrated that photospheric surface flows can be measured by correlation tracking of white-light intensity features at high resolution (November et al., 1987). In order to assess the feasibility of this technique with observations made at lower resolution, we have applied it to the same SOUP data artificially degraded, but still free of seeing distortion. Comparison with the velocity structures inferred from the original data shows generally good agreement when the resolution is better than about 2. The radial outflow from a sunspot penumbra, however, can only be seen with resolution of better than 1. With resolution of worse than 2, the inferred velocity fields rapidly lose coherence, while resolution of better than 1 yields little improvement. We conclude that apertures as small as 10–14 cm on a space-based platform will be useful for the measurement of large-scale horizontal motions.  相似文献

Observational results are presented concerning the structure of the quasar 3C 196 and the radio galaxy 3C 280 at 20 and 25 MHz, obtained by the scintillation method with the URAN-1 interferometer. Angular dimensions of the scintillating components and extended regions of the sources have been evaluated. In the case of the quasar 3C 196, the effective angular size of the scintillating component equals 2±1 . 5 and that of the extended region 18×25.The contribution of the compact component into the total radiation flux is 0.46±0.20. Spectra of the structural formations in 3C 196 have been obtained in the range 20–5000 MHz.For the radio galaxy 3C 280 the effective angular size of the scintillating component equals 1 . 5±1 . 2. and that of the extended region exceeds 10 . The contribution into the total flux due to the scintillating part is 0.35±0.20.The data obtained are analyzed together with the results measured at higher frequencies. It is pointed out that in a wide frequency range, the effect of wave scattering in the interstellar medium does not exceed measurement errors,hence bringing about no increase in the compact component sizes of the sources observed.  相似文献

CASPIR is a near-infrared spectrometer/imager being built for the Mount Stromlo and Siding Spring Observatories' 2.3 m telescope. The instrument is based on a SBRC 256×256 InSb detector array and uses AR-coated Sapphire, MgO, CaF2, and BaF2 optics to produce two imaging focal plane scales with 0.5/pixel and 0.25/pixel. Spectral resolving powers of 500 will be achieved through a 1×128 slit with three grisms designed for the J, H, and K bands. IJ, JH, and HK cross-dispersed échelle grisms will achieve resolving powers of 1100 through a 1×15 slit. Coronograph and imaging polarimetry modes will also be available. The various observing configurations are selected via five remotely controlled wheels. The instrument design and system architecture are discussed, and preliminary detector performance figures reported.  相似文献

The Gauribidanur Radioheliograph   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  
A new radio heliograph for obtaining two-dimensional images of the solar corona sequentially at many frequencies in the range 40–150 MHz has been built by the Indian Institute of Astrophysics at the Gauribidanur Radio Observatory (lat. 13°3612 N and long. 77°2707 E) about 100 km north of Bangalore, India. This paper describes various aspects of the antenna system, receiver front end, digital hardware, the data acquisition and the calibration procedure. The performance of the instrument is illustrated with maps of the continuum emission from the undisturbed corona at different frequencies.  相似文献

The Nobeyama Millimeter Array Survey for protoplanetary disks has been made for 19 protostellar IRAS sources in Taurus; 13 of them were optically invisible protostars and 6 were young T Tauri stars. We observed 98-GHz continuum and CS(J = 2 – 1) line emissions simultaneously with spatial resolutions of 2 . 8-8 . 8 (360-1,200 AU). The continuum emission was detected from 5 out of 6 T Tauri stars and 2 out of 13 protostar candidates: the emission was not spatially resolved and was consistent with being originated from compact circumstellar disks. Extended CS emission was detected around 2 T Tauri stars and 11 protostar candidates. There is a remarkable tendency for the detectability of the 98-GHz continuum emission to be small for protostar candidates. This tendency is explained if the mass of protoplanetary disks around protostars is not as large as that around T Tauri stars; the disk mass may increase with the increase of central stellar mass by dynamical accretion in the course of evolution from protostars to T Tauri stars.Paper presented at the Conference onPlanetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection held 7–10 December, 1992 at CalTech, Pasadena, California, U.S.A.  相似文献
