Photospheric brightness fluctuations were recorded photoelectrically across a part of the sun near the center of the disk, and simultaneously for two regions of the continuous spectrum chosen at various wavelengths between λ3500 Å and λ5500 Å. The auto-correlation functions and spatial power spectra were derived for each recording, and the cross-correlation functions, spatial relative phase and coherence spectra were computed for each pair of recordings. The main results are:

    The cross-correlation between any two recordings obtained for various regions of the continuous spectrum, is a function of the wavelength distance Δλ between these regions. The decrease of the cross-correlation with increasing Δλ is due to the fact that separate photometric inhomogeneities radiate in limited spectral ranges.  相似文献

We present the results of our spectroscopic studies of the nebula NGC 6857 located in a region of current star formation. Data on the surface brightness distribution in the central region of the nebula (～60″ × 60″) in the Hα, Hβ, [OIII], 5007 Å, [N II], 6548, 6583 Å, [S II], 6717, 6731 Å, and He I, 6678 Å lines have been obtained with an angular resolution of ～4.″5 × 4.″5. The zones of maximum surface brightness and the region of maximum gas ionization ratio are located 12″ south of the central star, which may suggest the existence of a second gas ionization source.  相似文献

We present our photoelectric and spectroscopic observations of the early B supergiant with an IR excess IRAS 19200+3457, a poorly known post-AGB candidate. The star has been found to be photometrically variable. We observed rapid irregular brightness variations with amplitudes up to \(\Delta V = 0\mathop .\limits^m 4, \Delta B = 0\mathop .\limits^m 4\), and \(\Delta U = 0\mathop .\limits^m 5\). IRAS 19200+3457 and three other hot post-AGB stars—V886 Her, V1853 Cyg, and LSIV—12°111—exhibit a similar variability pattern. Our low-resolution spectroscopic observations in the period 2001–2003 show that the spectrum of IRAS 19200+3457 represents an early B star with hydrogen emission lines originating from a circumstellar gaseous envelope. The HeI λ5876 Å, λ6678 Å, λ7065 Å, and OI λ7774 Å lines are in absorption. The hydrogen and, probably, HeI lines proved to be variable. Our observations confirm the conclusion that IRAS 19200+3457 belongs to the class of intermediate-mass protoplanetary objects.  相似文献

The axial rotation of a star plays an important role in its evolution, the physical conditions in its atmosphere and the appearance of its spectrum.We analyzed the CCD spectra of two stars for which their projected rotational velocity differs remarkably when derived from Ca II λ3933 Å and Mg II λ4481 Å lines. We estimated the projected rotational velocity of HD182255 to be 15.5 kms?1, although in various spectra of this star the line widths correspond to values as high as 28.5 km s?1. We found the HeI λ4471.498 Å line to be shifted to longer wavelengths by 0.046 Å, thus indicating a presence of the 3He I isotope in the atmosphere of this star with the 3He : 4He ratio from 0.2 to 0.6.We also found an absorption feature at the position of the forbidden line He I λ4470.02Å. We found the lines ofMg II and CII originating from higher excited levels to be missing in the spectra of HD 182255. For HD 214923 we determined the projected rotational velocity v sin i = 165km s?1 from the profiles of the metallic lines and Ca II λ3933Å, whereas for helium lines v sin i ≈ 130km s?1 is more appropriate. Radial velocity analysis results in three long periods of ≈ 105, 34, and 15 days, and a short period of ≈ 22 hours, close to the pulsational one mentioned earlier in the literature.  相似文献

We present our long-term photometric and spectroscopic observations of a high-latitude B supergiant with an infrared excess—the protoplanetary nebula IRAS 18062+2410. OurU BV observations in 2000–2006 have confirmed the rapid irregular photometric variability of the star with a maximum amplitude as high as 0 . m 4 in V that we found previously. The B—V and U—B color indices vary with amplitudes as high as 0 . m 10 and 0 . m 25, respectively, and show no clear correlation with the brightness. Our V-band CCD observations on 11 nights in 2006 have revealed brightness trends during the night. The variability of IRAS18062+2410 is similar in pattern to the light variations in other hot post-AGB objects and some of the nuclei of young planetary nebulae. We assume that pulsations and a variable stellar wind can be responsible for the variability of these stars. In addition to the rapid variability, our 12-year-long observations have revealed a systematic decline in the mean brightness of IRAS 18062+2410. This may be related to a rise in the temperature of the star at constant luminosity as a result of its evolution. Low-resolution spectroscopic observations have shown a systematic increase in the equivalent widths of the Hα, Hβ, [NII]λ6584 Å, OI λ8446 Å, and [OII] λ7320–7330 Å emission lines. The changes in the star’s emission line spectrum are probably caused by an increase in the degree of ionization of the gas shell due to a rise in the temperature of the ionizing star. Our photometric and spectroscopic observations of IRAS 18062+2410 confirm the previously made assumptions that the star evolves very rapidly to the region of planetary nebulae.  相似文献

We study the changes of the CaI λ6102.7 Å line profile and the magnetic field structure during the 1B/M2.2 while-light flare of August 12, 1981. The two brightest flare knots located in the penumbra of a sunspot with a δ configuration are investigated. The 1 ± V line profiles are analyzed. The reduction and analysis of our observations have yielded the following results. (1) The line profiles changed significantly during the flare, especially at the time of optical continuum emission observed near the flare maximum. In addition to the significant decrease in the depth, a narrow polarized emission whose Zeeman splitting corresponded to a longitudinal magnetic field strength of 3600 Gs was observed. This is much larger than the magnetic field strength in the underlying sunspot determined from the Zeeman splitting of absorption lines. (2) The largest changes of the CaI λ6102.7 Å line profile observed during the flare can lead to an underestimation of the longitudinal magnetic field strength measured with a video magnetograph by a factor of 4.5, but they cannot be responsible for the polarity reversal. (3) A sharp short-term displacement of the neutral line occurred at a time close to the flare maximum, which gave rise to a reversed-polarity magnetic field on a small area of the active region, i.e., a magnetic transient. This can be interpreted as a change in the inclination of the magnetic field lines to the line of sight during the flare. The short-term depolarization of the CaI λ6102.7 Å line emission observed at the other flare knot can also be the result of a change in the magnetic field structure. (4) These fast dynamic changes of the magnetic field lines occurred after the maximum of the impulsive flare phase and were close in time to the appearance of type II radio emission.  相似文献

On 21 September 2012, we carried out spectral observations of a solar facula in the Si?i 10827 Å, He?i 10830 Å, and H\(\upalpha\) spectral lines. Later, in the process of analyzing the data, we found a small-scale flare in the middle of the time series. Based on the anomalous increase in the absorption of the He?i 10830 Å line, we identified this flare as a negative flare.The aim of this article is to study the influence of the negative flare on the oscillation characteristics in the facular photosphere and chromosphere.We measured the line-of-sight (LOS) velocity and intensity of all the three lines as well as the half-width of the chromospheric lines. We also used the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) magnetic field data. The flare caused a modulation of all these parameters. In the location of the negative flare, the amplitude of the oscillations increased four times on average. In the adjacent magnetic field local maxima, the chromospheric LOS velocity oscillations appreciably decreased during the flare. The facular region oscillated as a whole with a 5-minute period before the flare, and this synchronicity was disrupted after the flare. The flare changed the spectral composition of the LOS magnetic field oscillations, causing an increase in the low-frequency oscillation power.  相似文献

Coronal interferograms in the lines of Fe xiv 5303 Å, He i 5876 Å and Fe x 6374 Å were obtained during the total solar eclipse of 10 July, 1972 (see Figure 2). He i emission was found in the chromosphere only. The upper limit of the D3 equivalent width in terms of the coronal continuous background is 0.013 Å in the inner corona (r=1.15 R⊙). The λ6374 negative was taken with low contrast. The half width of 16374 is 1.0–1.08 Å for a limited area of the corona (P=88?104°, r=1.30?1.44 R⊙). A detailed photometry of the 5303 Å line was carried out and the behaviour of the half widths and equivalent widths were studied in different regions of the corona. The half width of λ5303 increases with distance from the Sun's center in almost all the studied regions (1.2 R⊙ ? r ? 1.7 R⊙). This increase corresponds to an increase of the non-thermal velocities with a gradient of 1–2 km s-1 per 0.1 R⊙. The equivalent widths, expressed in the coronal continuous background intensity remain constant on the average.  相似文献

We present our JHKLM photometry for R Cas performed during 1988–2000. The pulsation period of R Cas is $P \approx 429\mathop .\limits^d 6$ , with the maximum IR brightness lagging behind the maximum visual brightness by ～0.2 P. The amplitude of light variations appreciably decreases with increasing wavelength at λ≤3 μm. At λ>3 μm, this decrease virtually ceases. There is a step on the ascending branch of IR JHK brightness. The K-L color index increases linearly with K magnitude: $K - L = 0.304K + 1\mathop .\limits^m 20$ . The color temperature dependence, T K-L =f(K), is also linear: T K?L = ?622K + 1100 K. In going from minimum to maximum, the K flux (as well as the bolometric flux) from the star and its color temperature T K-L increase by a factor of ～2.2 and ～1.3, respectively.  相似文献

Based on observations with the 6-m SAO RAS telescope, we have found that chemically peculiar star with a large depression of the continuum at λ5200 Å and strengthened silicon lines in the spectrum has a strong magnetic field. The longitudinal field component Be has a negative polarity and varies from ?300 G to ?2000 G with a period of 1.756 days. Photometric variations of brightness take place with the same period. We determined the variability of the radial velocity at times of about tens of years pointing to a possible binarity of the object. We have built a magnetic model of this star, determined the inclination angles of the rotation axis to the line of sight i = 20° and of the dipole axis to the rotation axis β = 116°, and the field strength at the pole is Bp = 10 kG. We carried out a chemical composition analysis and found a lack of helium for almost an order of magnitude, some overabundance of silicon and metal elements for more than an order of magnitude, particularly, cobalt for three orders of magnitude.  相似文献

The results of spectroscopic observations of the star RY Tau in the ultraviolet based on IUE data and in the visual spectral range obtained at ShAO are presented. Despite significant brightness variability in 1983–1984, the Mg II λ2800 Å emission doublet showed no synchronous variation with the UBV photometric data. Periodic variability of the Mg II λ2800 Å emission intensity with a period of 23 days has been detected for the first time. The periodicity is also observed for a group of such lines as CIV λ1450 Å, He II λ1640 Å, and S II λ1756 Å. The equivalent widths and shifts of the individual components of the Hα, H + H ε , and CaII K lines also vary with the period found. The observed variability of the emission spectrum can be explained by the existence of a companion in the system in an orbit with a semimajor axis of about 0.13 AU.  相似文献

The progressive rotation from the limb onto the disk of a long-lived cluster of coaligned Hα spicules was observed at high spatial resolution on the fringe of a large complex of activity. Although individual spicules were steadily changing, the organized cluster appeared consistently suspended above the photospheric limb when viewed in the wings of Hα (|Δλ| ≈ 0.9 Å). The phenomenon is the counterpart near an active region of the dark band discovered in the quiet low chromosphere by Loughhead (1969). But in the present circumstances the effect is perceived as a weakening of emission, i.e. as a gap rather than an obscuration. The initial gap between the off-band spicules and the photospheric limb narrowed and closed in about 4 h. A day later, the cluster of spicules could be identified at the same wavelength with a cluster of elongated dark mottles, similarly coaligned; they were adjacent to, but not in contact with, a foreshortened patch of faculae. The persistence of the gap in this cluster, and its occurrence in isolated spicules reported here in quiet regions, imply that the phenomenon is an inherent property of spicules. It is proposed that the gap results from a spicule-generating process initiated above the temperature minimum.  相似文献

The ultraviolet spectra of the stars RY Tau and HD 115043 from the Hubble Space Telescope are analyzed. RY Tau belongs to the classical T Tauri stars, while HD 115043 is a young (t~3×108 years), chromospherically active star. The most intense emission lines were identified, and their fluxes were measured. Low-resolution spectra of RY Tau and HD 115043 in the wavelength range 1160–1760 Å exhibit almost the same set of emission lines. However, first, the luminosity of RY Tau in these lines is approximately a factor of 300 higher than that of HD 115043, and, second, the relative line intensities differ greatly. The intensity ratio of the C IV λ1550, Si IV λ1400, and NV λ1240 doublet components is close to 1: 2 in the spectra of both stars. Judging by the continuum energy distribution, the spectral type of RY Tau is later than that of HD 115043. Synchronous flux variability in the C IV λ1550 and He II λ1640 lines in a time of ~20 min was detected in RY Tau. The flux rise in these lines was accompanied by a redshift of the intensity peak in the profiles by~50 km s?1. Intermediate-resolution spectra are used to study line profiles in the spectrum of RY Tau. In particular, the profiles of (optically thin) Si III]λ1892 and C III]λ1909 lines were found to be asymmetric and about 300 km s?1 in width. The (optically thick) C IV λ1550 doublet lines have similar profiles. The Mg II λ2800 doublet lines are also asymmetric, but their shape is different: they consist of a broad (?750 km s?1 at the base) emission component on which an interstellar absorption line shifted from the line symmetry center by about 20 km s?1 is superimposed. The intensity ratio of the Mg II λ2800 doublet components is?1.4. Whether there are molecular hydrogen lines in the spectrum of RY Tau is still an open question. It is shown that the emission lines in the ultraviolet spectrum of RY Tau cannot originate in a hydrostatically equilibrium chromosphere. It is argued that quasi-steady accretion of circumstellar matter is responsible for the emission.  相似文献

We have obtained center-to-limb photoelectric spectra of the CN(1,1) B-X bandhead region λ3868–3872 Å at Kitt Peak National Observatory. From these spectra and a detailed analysis of the formation of the CN (1, 1) spectrum we derive a best-fit upper photospheric model differing from the HSRA which is consistent with our previous CN(0, 0) λ3883 spectra. We derive a solar carbon abundance of log A c = 8.30 ± 0.10 compared to the HSRA value of log A c = 8.55 ± 0.10. In addition we specify the regions of formation for the CN(0, 0) λ3883.35 and CN(1, 1) λ 3871.38 bandheads at disc center and limb.  相似文献

Reticon spectroscopic observations of the yellow symbiotic star AG Draconis are reported. Small rapid (15–30 min) changes in the intensities of the Hei λ5015 Å and Hei λ6678 Å singlet lines, and of the Hγ line are observed. The first observational evidence of presence of the unidentified band at 7088 Å in this star is also reported.  相似文献

Narrow-waveband (100 Å) photoelectric slit-scan photometry of the Neptune disk is reported. Observations were concentrated within the strong CH4 band at λ7300 Å. For comparison, measurements were also made within a continuum waveband at λ6800 Å. Point spread function data were obtained in both colors. Qualitative estimates of the true intensity distribution over the Neptune disk were made. Within the λ6800-Å continuum band, Neptune appears as an essentially uniform disk. Within the λ7300 Å CH4 band, the planet exhibits strong limb brightening. Our results appear to require the presence of an optically thin layer of brightly scattering aerosol particles high in the Neptune atmosphere.  相似文献

Two models of the origin of the spectrum of type I supernovae are analysed: (I) the photosphere of the ‘central remnant’ and the expanding shell are separated by a density cavity; (II) the ‘photosphere’ (the layer which produces the continuous spectrum) is the inner part of the expanding shell. The arguments are given in favour of model I. Opacity of the shell close to light maximum for λ>4000 Å is mostly due to Thomson scattering; soon after light maximum (and it may be already at light maximum) the shell becomes completely transparent in this region of the spectrum. The problem of the origin of the very large width and of the relatively high central residual intensities of the absorption lines in the spectra of type I supernovae are analysed. A very noticeable dispersion in the velocities of the radial gas motions in the shell is the principal cause of the large equivalent width of the absorption lines in the spectra of these supernovae. The role played by the inhomogeneities in the shell is also discussed. The depth of the strong absorption lines produced by a very inhomogeneous shell may be equal to the filling factor of the medium. From the analysis of the spectra of supernova 1972e a lower limit for the mass of the shell is obtained (M>1031 g). Then from the fact of absence of a detectable H-absorption line and a simultaneous presence of strong Siii absorption lines (6347, 6371 Å) in the spectrum of supernova 1972e it follows that the ratio Si/H is at least two or three orders greater than that for the ‘normal’ stars.  相似文献

We have used the 512 channel diode array and vacuum telescope at KPNO to study the photospheric intensity distribution around sunspots, for comparison with isotherms predicted by convective blocking models of heat flow. Raster scan observations of 10 spots on 18 days were carried out in 1980 and 1981. Continuum passbands of 0.25 Å width were selected to avoid contamination by weak Fraunhofer lines, whose strength is sensitive to the presence of magnetic faculae often found near spots. Our observations show no evidence of extended bright rings around the spots at the level of 1–2%, as reported in one recent study using photographic photometry and much wider passbands. But 6 of the 10 spots we measured show marginally significant (2–3σ) bright rings of peak amplitude 0.1–0.3%. We are not able to explain these rings as a result of either residual facular signal, or instrumental effects. The excess radiative flux in these rings is small compared to the missing flux in the spot umbra and penumbra. We compare the brightness of the observed rings with peak brightnesses calculated from models of heat flow around spots of various depths and radii. Even if the spot is assumed to be unrealistically shallow, a detectable bright ring requires that the effective thermal conductivity (and/or its depth gradient) in layers surrounding the spot be significantly lower than the values indicated by mixing length models of the solar convection zone.  相似文献

We have investigated long-term variations of solar brightness as a function of both time and solar latitude using eight years of ground-based photometric data in conjunction with space-based irradiance data. In particular, we have examined whether the combination of sunspot brightness deficits and facular brightness excesses is sufficient to explain the solar cycle irradiance variations. After correcting for the contribution from sunspots, we find that the irradiance data can be adequately explained by a model in which the remaining brightness variations are due entirely to facular contributions confined to the magnetically active latitudes. Thus we find no support for the hypothesis that there are convectively driven hot bands in the active latitudes, and our data show brightness variations that are well described by a facular contrast function.  相似文献

The expression for the zodiacal brightness integral is especially simple if the integrand contains the ‘directional scattering coefficient’, D, (a.u.?1), or equivalently the scattering cross-section per unit-volume. The two intersections of the terrestrial orbit with a line of sight lying in the ecliptic offer the possibility of isolating the contribution of the chord, with a conservative assumption of steadiness, but without the controversial assumption of a homogeneous zodiacal cloud. The zodiacal brightnesses between 60 and 120° elongation can be used to derive D0 and D, the value of D and its heliocentric radial derivative, both at 1 a.u. and at a scattering angle of 90°. A polarimetric treatment leads to the local polarization degree, P0, and to its heliocentric derivative, P. Applied to all three available observational sources, this method invalidates the assumption of homogeneity, leading to a rather high relative gradient PP0 near 1 a.u. (? 12, ? 16 or ? 24%, according to the source, as the Sun's distance decreases from 1.0 to 0.9 a.u.).The method is extended to Doppler spectrometry, taking advantage of the two equal projections on the line of sight of the Earth's velocity vector. The brightness Z0 and the Dopplershift Δλ0 observed at 90° elongation, together with the derivatives w.r.t. elongation ε, of the brightness, Z? and of the Dopplershift, Δλ, can be used to retrieve the mean orbital velocity, v, of the interplanetary scatterers in the region of the terrestrial orbit. The two most reliable observational sources lead, with fair agreement, to a relative excess (v ? V)V, over the terrestrial velocity, of the order of + 25%.  相似文献
