It is shown that the mean value for the heat flow of a gravitationally-differentiated Moon of fission origin is about 13 erg cm?2 s?1 and that the heat flow varies regionally from about 3 erg cm?2s?1 to more than 45 erg cm?2s?1. These regional variations in the heat flow are caused by a non-uniform distribution of K, U and Th in the KREEP zone at the crust-upper mantle boundary and the redistribution of crustal materials and K, U and Th rich KREEP materials by basin-forming impacts. The scale of these regional variations is hundreds of km. The models presented are in accord with the Apollo 15 and 17 heat flow measurements. 相似文献

We present analyses of new optical photometric observations of three W UMa-type contact binaries FZ Ori, V407 Peg and LP UMa. Results from the first polarimetric observations of the FZ Ori and V407 Peg are also presented. The periods of FZ Ori, V407 Peg and LP UMa are derived to be 0.399986, 0.636884 and 0.309898 d, respectively. The O?C analyses indicate that the orbital periods of FZ Ori and LP UMa have increased with the rate of 2.28×10?8 and 1.25×10?6 d?yr?1, respectively and which is explained by transfer of mass between the components. In addition to the secularly increasing rate of orbital period, it was found that the period of FZ Ori has varied in sinusoidal way with oscillation period of ～30.1 yr. The period of oscillations are most likely to be explained by the light-time effect due to the presence of a tertiary companion. Small asymmetries have been seen around the primary and secondary maxima of light curves of all three systems, which is probably due to the presence of cool/hot spots on the components. The light curves of all three systems are analysed by using Wilson-Devinney code (WD) and the fundamental parameters of these systems have been derived. The present analyses show that FZ Ori is a W-subtype, and V407 Peg and LP UMa are A-subtype of the W UMa-type contact binary systems. The polarimetric observations in B, V, R and I bands, yield average values of polarization to be 0.26±0.03, 0.22±0.02, 0.22±0.03 and 0.22±0.05 per cent for FZ Ori and 0.21±0.02, 0.29±0.03, 0.31±0.01 and 0.31±0.04 per cent for V407 Peg, respectively. 相似文献

In this paper, the presence of Faraday rotation in measurements of the orientation of a sunspot's transverse magnetic field is investigated. Using observations obtained with the Marshall Space Flight Center's (MSFC) vector magnetograph, the derived vector magnetic field of a simple, symmetric sunspot is used to calculate the degree of Faraday rotation in the azimuth of the transverse field as a function of wavelength from analytical expressions for the Stokes parameters. These results are then compared with the observed rotation of the field's azimuth which is derived from observations at different wavelengths within the Fei 5250 Å spectral line. From these comparisons, we find: the observed rotation of the azimuth is simulated to a reasonable degree by the theoretical formulations if the line-formation parameter η o is varied over the sunspot; these variations in η o are substantiated by the line-intensity data; for the MSFC system, Faraday rotation can be neglected for field strengths less than 1800 G and field inclinations greater than 45°; to minimize the effects of Faraday rotation in sunspot umbrae, MSFC magnetograph measurements must be made in the far wings of the Zeeman-sensitive spectral line. 相似文献

Mid-infrared extinction coefficients of five natural amorphous silicates and seven synthetic glasses were measured. Three bands at about 10, 12, and 20 μm were seen for all the measured samples. The quantities of these bands are found to have good correlations with the SiO2 content of the samples. The correlations are the most remarkable for the 10 μm band. As the SiO2 content decreases, the peak wavelengthλ m shifts to longer side, the peak heightK m decreases and the full width of half maximumW increases. A quantityλ m K m W is constant within 15%. Empirical formula $$\lambda_m (\mu m) = {11.10-2.30 x 10^-2} {[SiO_2 wt.\%]} \pm 0.15$$ and $$W(\mu m) = {5.14-4.68 x 10^- 2} {[SiO_2 wt.\%]} \pm 0.30$$ are obtained for the measured samples. Therefore, the correlation is present between the 10 μm peak wavelengthλ m and peak widthW for amorphous silicates. The change in peak widthW is remarkable compared the change in peak wavelengthλ m as the SiO2 content varies. For the 12 μm band the correlations with the SiO2 content are not so good. A tendency that theλ m shifts to the red and theK m lowers as the decreasing SiO2 content are found. For the samples with SiO2 content less than 50% the 12 μm band cannot recognized as the peak. For the 20 μm band, theλ m is almost independent on SiO2 content and theK m lowers with decreasing SiO2 content. The results are compared with the observed 10 μm band of the astronomical objects. A method to estimate the SiO2 content of astronomical grain materials is proposed and 48±8% SiO2 wt.% is found corresponding to the peak wavelength of 9.7 μm and the peak width of 2.5–3.0 μm of typical celestial objects. 相似文献

The observations of VV Ori inUBV and inuvby obtained by Chambliss in 1975–79 have been re-analyzed with the use of an updated version of the WINK program of Wood. Several solutions were obtained using the normal points (ca. 80 per light curve). These establish fairly reliable values for the linear limb-darkening coefficient of VV Ori A and approximate values for the luminosity of the third component of this system. Attempts to determine non-linear coefficients of limb darkening for the primary component, however, proved to be unsuccessful. Solutions were also obtained using all observations (ca. 620 per light curve). Very close agreement was found between the values of the geometric elements determined from these solutions and those determined by use of the normal points only. The solutions based on all observations produced reliable values foru 1, the limb darkening coefficient of VV Ori A, (typically, 0.30±-0.04). These results are in good agreement with theoretical limb darkening coefficients derived from model atmospheres calculations. The contribution of VV Ori C to the light of the system was also ascertained, and it was found that this could be best interpreted, if this component has a spectral type of A3V. The other orbital elements of VV Ori were also discussed, and the differences between the various solutions were noted. Since VV Ori A is one of the very few early-type stars for which reliable limb-darkening coefficients can be empirically determined, this system is viewed as being of considerable importance. 相似文献

In the set of small satellites of Saturn recently imaged by the Voyager probes, we can observe the transition from irregularly-shaped, strength-dominated objects to larger, gravity-dominated bodies with shapes roughly fitting the theoretical equilibrium figures. The transition occurs for a radius of 100±50 km, corresponding to a typical material strength of the order of 107 dynes cm?2. We discuss briefly the cases of Mimas, Enceladus, Hyperion, Phoebe and the small coorbital and F-ring shepherding moons, showing that an analysis of the shape data can often provide interesting results on the physical properties, origin and collisional history of these objects. 相似文献

This paper describes the detailed calibration at soft X-ray energies (0.1–2.0 keV; 125 Å-6 Å) of gold coated, paraboloidal X-ray mirrors, four of which were subsequently flow on the Ariel-6 satellite. Uncertainties in the attitude of the satellite together with an apparent reduction in sensitivity of the soft X-ray experiment necessitated observations using the Crab Nebula as a reference. These showed that a dramatic reduction in the reflection efficiencies of all four mirrors had occurred, almost certainly after or during launch. An initial recalibration of the mirrors using the Crab observation is described. 相似文献

The search for the still unrevealed spectral shape of the mysterious THz solar flare emissions is one of the current most challenging research issues. The concept, fabrication and performance of a double THz photometer system, named SOLAR-T, is presented. Its innovative optical setup allows observations of the full solar disk and the detection of small burst transients at the same time. The detecting system was constructed to observe solar flare THz emissions on board of stratospheric balloons. The system has been integrated to data acquisition and telemetry modules for this application. SOLAR-T uses two Golay cell detectors preceded by low-pass filters made of rough surface primary mirrors and membranes, 3 and 7 THz band-pass filters, and choppers. Its photometers can detect small solar bursts (tens of solar flux units) with sub second time resolution. Tests have been conducted to confirm the entire system performance, on ambient and low pressure and temperature conditions. An artificial Sun setup was developed to simulate performance on actual observations. The experiment is planned to be on board of two long-duration stratospheric balloon flights over Antarctica and Russia in 2014–2016. 相似文献

We present the results of spectroscopic and photometric observations for three hot southern-hemisphere post-AGB objects, Hen 3-1347 = IRAS 17074-1845, Hen 3-1428 = IRAS 17311-4924, and LSS 4634 = IRAS 18023-3409. In the spectrograms taken with the 1.9-m telescope of the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO) in 2012, we have measured the equivalent widths of the most prominent spectral lines. Comparison of the new data with those published previously points to a change in the spectra of Hen 3-1428 and LSS 4634 in the last 20 years. Based on ASAS data, we have detected rapid photometric variability in all three stars with an amplitude up to 0 · m 3-0 · m 4 in the V band. A similarity between the patterns of variability for the sample stars and other hot protoplanetary nebulae is pointed out. We present the results of UBV observations for Hen 3-1347, according to which the star undergoes rapid irregular brightness variations with maximum amplitudes ΔV = 0 · m 25, ΔB = 0 · m 25, and ΔU = 0 · m 30 and shows color-magnitude correlations. Based on archival data, we have traced the photometric history of the stars over more than 100 years. Hen 3-1347 and LSS 4634 have exhibited a significant fading on a long time scale. The revealed brightness and spectrum variations in the stars, along with evidence for their enhanced mass, may be indicative of their rapid post-AGB evolution. 相似文献

We analyse a simple one degree of freedom Hamiltonian system depending upon a parameter \(H = - 3(\delta + 1)R + R^2 - 2\sqrt {2R} \cos r\) . This model is much closer to resonance problems arising in Celestial Mechanics than the pendulum. We deduce from it the conditions of capture into resonance or escape from resonance for systems drifting slowly. We apply this analysis to the Enceladus-Dione resonance. 相似文献

Polar coronal holes (PCHs) trace the magnetic variability of the Sun throughout the solar cycle. Their size and evolution have been studied as proxies for the global magnetic field. We present measurements of the PCH areas from 1996 through 2010, derived from an updated perimeter-tracing method and two synoptic-map methods. The perimeter-tracing method detects PCH boundaries along the solar limb, using full-disk images from the SOlar and Heliospheric Observatory/Extreme ultraviolet Imaging Telescope (SOHO/EIT). One synoptic-map method uses the line-of-sight magnetic field from the SOHO/Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) to determine the unipolarity boundaries near the poles. The other method applies thresholding techniques to synoptic maps created from EUV image data from EIT. The results from all three methods suggest that the solar maxima and minima of the two hemispheres are out of phase. The maximum PCH area, averaged over the methods in each hemisphere, is approximately 6 % during both solar minima spanned by the data (between Solar Cycles 22/23 and 23/24). The northern PCH area began a declining trend in 2010, suggesting a downturn toward the maximum of Solar Cycle 24 in that hemisphere, while the southern hole remained large throughout 2010. 相似文献

The amplitude of the 11-year cycle measured in the cosmogenic isotope 10Be during the Maunder Minimum is comparable to that during the recent epoch of high solar activity. Because of the virtual absence of the cyclic variability of sunspot activity during the Maunder Minimum this seemingly contradicts an intuitive expectation that lower activity would result in smaller solar-cycle variations in cosmogenic radio-isotope data, or in none, leading to confusing and misleading conclusions. It is shown here that large 11-year solar cycles in cosmogenic data observed during periods of suppressed sunspot activity do not necessarily imply strong heliospheric fields. Normal-amplitude cycles in the cosmogenic radio-isotopes observed during the Maunder Minimum are consistent with theoretical expectations because of the nonlinear relation between solar activity and isotope production. Thus, cosmogenic-isotope data provide a good tool to study solar-cycle variability even during grand minima of solar activity. 相似文献

Locations, orientations and magnetic field changes are given for 135 bow shock crossings at distances downstream from Earth between 84 and 117 Earth radii. The shock locations bracket those calculated for the hypersonic analogue by Dryer and Heckman for a Mach number of 3.8. The shock normal vectors have been calculated using magnetic coplanarity. The average normal vectors have a greater inclination by ～17±5 deg from the symmetry axis than the Dryer and Heckman shock orientations for a 3.8 Mach number. Over a range of downstream distances from 60 to 115 Earth radii, the median magnetic field magnitude jump across the shock changes from 1.90 to 1.70 times. 相似文献

The non-linear stability of L 4 in the restricted three-body problem when both primaries are finite straight segments in the presence of third and fourth order resonances has been investigated. Markeev’s theorem (Markeev in Libration Points in Celestial Mechanics and Astrodynamics, 1978) is used to examine the non-linear stability for the resonance cases 2:1 and 3:1. It is found that the non-linear stability of L 4 depends on the lengths of the segments in both resonance cases. It is also found that the range of stability increases when compared with the classical restricted problem. The results have been applied in the following asteroids systems: (i) 216 Kleopatra–951 Gaspara, (ii) 9 Metis–433 Eros, (iii) 22 Kalliope–243 Ida. 相似文献

The earlier interpretation of the Zebra patterns by the concept of double resonance is examined for a realistic magneto-hydrostatic model of a coronal condensation over a bipolar spot group. It appears that the frequency drift of the Zebra stripes over a longer time can scarcely be explained by a change of state of the plasma as done till now. The proposed modified mechanism is based on a helical beam of electrons forming fronts that excite radiation at places of double resonance. Considering the field and density configuration conditions are found which produce drifting Zebra stripes. Structures of longer duration and absorptions arise from more or less overlapping stripe segments, which are excited by the fronts following one another in a beam of sufficient great length. The second stripe system of other drift direction found by Slottje (1972a) arises from lateral splitting of the beam. 相似文献

The paper describes a new sensor for the spatial registration and measurement of particle parameters in near and deep space. The following modern materials are applied in the sensor structure: a PVDF piezoactive film and lightweight heat-shielding high-temperature aerogel. The results from studying the aerogel morphology as well as its thermal conductivity depending on the air temperature are presented. The thermal conductivity of a SiO2-aerogel is compared with one of foreign aerogels and air. Its elemental quantitative chemical composition is determined. 相似文献
