Simulations of the gravity data to be expected from a Lunar Polar Orbiter spacecraft utilizing either a Doppler velocity tracking system or a gravity gradiometer instrument system are generated using a point mass model that gives an excellent representation of the types of gravity anomalies to be found on the Moon. If the state of the art in instrumentation of both systems remain at the level of ±1 mm/sec at 10 sec integration time for the Doppler velocity system accuracy and at ±1 Eotvos at 10 sec integration time for the gravity gradiometer system accuracy, inspection of the simulations indicates that a gravity gradiometer system will give science data with better resolution and higher amplitude-to-measurement noise ratio than the Doppler velocity system at altitudes below 100 km. The error model used in the study is one where the system errors are assumed to be dominated by the point measurement noise and data quantization noise. The effects of other, more controllable, systematic error sources are not considered in this simplified analysis. For example, both systems will be affected by errors in LPO orbital altitude and position knowledge, spacecraft maneuvers, and data reduction errors. In addition, a Doppler tracking system will be sensitive to errors produced by spacecraft acceleration (from outgassing or solar pressure) and poor relative position of the LPO, Relay Satellite and ground tracking station, while a gravity gradiometer system will be sensitive to errors from spacecraft attitude and angular rates. These preliminary study results now need to be verified by a more complete error analysis in which all the uncertainties of the data gathering process are formally mapped into uncertainties in the resulting gravity maps.  相似文献

The passage of McMath plage region 8818 over the visible solar disk resulted in extensive meter-wavelength activity of spectral types I, II, III and IV. The activity at 74 MHz and its polarization have been observed with a narrow-band (10 kHz) timesharing radio polarimeter. Newly adopted data recording and processing techniques have enabled time-histories of the polarization characteristics of the solar emission to be obtained with a time resolution of 1/4 second. The polarization patterns for all the major activity in the May 18–26 period are described. They exhibit considerable variety in the degree and ellipticity of the polarization observed during both short-lived bursts and long-enduring periods of activity. Both simple and complex patterns were seen when changes in the sense of polarization of the solar emission occurred. Methods used to determine the polarization characteristics of the solar emission in the presence of galactic emission and to resolve the complexities of the solar emission itself are illustrated.  相似文献

In this paper we propose to use the method of iterative calculation to solve directly the imaging equation for image recovery. The same method can be applied to the recovery of one-dimensional spectra. During the iteration suitable constraints are applied to effect nonlinear control over the process. The use of fitting technique in the treatment of the imaging equation suppresses noise and raises sensitivity. Analyses of both Monte Carlo samples and actual high-energy astronomical data showed that the direct method is more sensitive and having greater resolving power than the traditional method, is capable of revealing simultaneously both diffuse and discrete structures in the target object and can be used on data of lower statistical quality. In principle, the direct method can be used in all types of image and spectrum recovery in other fields.  相似文献

We present a summary results of the study of radio sources showing significant variations of integral flux density using the data from the RATAN-600 surveys of 1980–1994 at a frequency of 7.6 cm. The majority of the detected variable sources have flat radio spectra, although there are also all other spectrum types found. Point and compact sources predominate, although all known morphological structures are found in the sample. Variability is detected both in quasars and galaxies. Using the catalog data, we found brightness variations in the optical and/or infrared ranges for a half of host objects of radio sources. We analyzed the properties of nonvariable and variable RCR sources. We compared the ratio of absolute magnitude to radio luminosity for sources with the active nucleus types determined from the optical data. It is found that this parameter is approximately the same for quasars with different radio luminosity. It isminimum for the strongest radio galaxies and grows up to the level characteristic of quasars with the decrease of radio luminosity. Considering that the ratio depends on obscuring properties of a dust torus, such behavior can be explained if we assume that the torus geometry and its optical depth depend on the source long. This parameter is slightly higher among variable sources than among nonvariable ones which counts in favor of the nucleus more open to an observer.  相似文献

The goal of all time laboratories’ pursue is to produce and keep a stable, precise and reliable time scale. The long-term stability of the time scale is mainly taken into account in the traditional ALGOS algorithm, while the local atomic time scale should give consideration to both the long-term and shortterm stabilities. From the analysis and research on the atomic clock noise model and under the condition that the long-term stability of the local atomic time scale does not drop, a complete algorithm is proposed which is suitable for the calculation of the local time scale TA (NTSC) carried out at the time laboratory with the time-keeping clocks of a unitary type and being close in performance at the National Time Service Center, called the NTSC for short, of Chinese Academy of Sciences. The data of all the clocks in the NTSC which participated in the calculation of the International Atomic Time (TAI) all the year round in 2008 are applied to the test and verification of the new algorithm, with the result showing that both the short- and long-term stability indexes of the obtained TA (NTSC) are improved. The research result is suitable for the calculation of the atomic time scale of the time laboratory whose time keeping system is similar to that of the NTSC.  相似文献

Stable recurrent sunspot groups from the Greenwich data set which were identified in at least two subsequent solar rotations were traced. The solar rotation was determined by the period method from the time difference of the two central meridian passages of each of the 327 identified groups. Sidereal rotation periods were calculated from the synodic ones by a seasonal-dependent procedure taking into account the details of the Earth's motion around the Sun. Growing recurrent sunspot groups rotate on the average faster than decaying recurrent sunspot groups, while sunspot groups of all types taken together rotate faster than both growing and decaying recurrent sunspot groups. A north–south rotational asymmetry and a cycle-dependence of rotational velocity of recurrent sunspot groups were analyzed. Positive rotation velocity deviations are larger, but less numerous than the negative ones. Signatures of torsional oscillations were not found analyzing the rotation velocity residual of recurrent sunspot groups as a function of the distance from the average latitude of activity.  相似文献

Numerical orbit integrations have been conducted to characterize the types of trajectories in the one-dimensional Newtonian three-body problem with equal masses and negative energy. Essentially three different types of motions were found to exist. They may be classified according to the duration of the bound three-body state. There are zero-lifetime predictable trajectories, finite lifetime apparently chaotic orbits, and infinite lifetime quasi-periodic motions. The quasi-periodic orbits are confined to the neighbourhood of Schubart's stable periodic orbit. For all other trajectories the final state is of the type binary + single particle in both directions of time. The boundaries of the different orbit-type regions seem to be sharp. We present statistical results for the binding energies and for the duration of the bound three-body state. Properties of individual orbits are also summarized in the form of various graphical maps in a two-dimensional grid of parameters defining the orbit. Supported by the Academy of Finland.  相似文献

The term 'dynamo' means different things to the laboratory fusion plasma and astrophysical plasma communities. To alleviate the resulting confusion and to facilitate interdisciplinary progress, we pinpoint conceptual differences and similarities between laboratory plasma dynamos and astrophysical dynamos. We can divide dynamos into three types: 1. magnetically dominated helical dynamos which sustain a large-scale magnetic field against resistive decay and drive the magnetic geometry towards the lowest energy state, 2. flow-driven helical dynamos which amplify or sustain large-scale magnetic fields in an otherwise turbulent flow and 3. flow-driven non-helical dynamos which amplify fields on scales at or below the driving turbulence. We discuss how all three types occur in astrophysics whereas plasma confinement device dynamos are of the first type. Type 3 dynamos require no magnetic or kinetic helicity of any kind. Focusing on Types 1 and 2 dynamos, we show how different limits of a unified set of equations for magnetic helicity evolution reveal both types. We explicitly describe a steady-state example of a Type 1 dynamo, and three examples of Type 2 dynamos: (i) closed volume and time dependent; (ii) steady state with open boundaries; (iii) time dependent with open boundaries.  相似文献

We investigate the presence and temporal evolution of short- and intermediate-term periodicities in the daily data of sunspot numbers and coronal index for the time span from May 1996 to December 2008, which covers the entire Solar Cycle 23. The daily sunspot number data have been analyzed for the full disk, and for northern and southern hemispheres of the Sun. Using the wavelet power spectrum technique, we find a number of quasi-periodic oscillations in all the data sets. We also find a prominent period of 22 to 35 days in the high-frequency range, and detect the Rieger period of 150 to 160 days in both data sets during different phases of Cycle 23. We also detect ∼1.3 year oscillation in both sunspot and coronal index time series. In addition, we find a number of other short and mid-term periods. We discuss possible explanations of the observed periodicities in the light of previous results and existing numerical models.  相似文献

A list of galaxies with inner regions revealing polar (or strongly inclined to the main galactic plane) disks and rings is compiled from the literature data. The list contains 47 galaxies of all morphological types, from E to Irr. We consider the statistics of the parameters of polar structures known from observations. The radii of the majority of them do not exceed 1.5 kpc. The polar structures are equally common in barred and unbarred galaxies. At the same time, if a galaxy has a bar (or a triaxial bulge), this leads to the polar disk stabilization, so that its axis of rotation usually coincideswith the major axis of the bar. More than two thirds of all considered galaxies reveal one or another sign of recent interaction or merging. This fact indicates a direct relation between the external environment and the presence of an inner polar structure.  相似文献

Near-infrared observations of Europa's disk-integrated opposition surge by Cassini VIMS, first published in Fig. 4 of Brown et al. (2003, Icarus, 164, 461), have now been modeled with the commonly used Hapke photometric function. The VIMS data set emphasizes observations at 16 solar phase angles from 0.4° to 0.6°—the first time the <1° phase “heart” of Europa's opposition surge has been observed this well in the near-IR. This data set also provides a unique opportunity to examine how the surge is affected by changes in wavelength and albedo: at VIMS wavelengths of 0.91, 1.73, and 2.25 μm, the geometric albedo of Europa is 0.81, 0.33, and 0.18, respectively. Despite this factor-of-four albedo range, however, the slope of Europa's phase curve at <1° phase is similar at all three wavelengths (to within the error bars) and this common slope is similar to the phase coefficient seen in visible-light observations of Europa. The two components of the opposition surge—involving different models of the physical cause of the surge—are the Shadow Hiding Opposition Effect (SHOE) and the Coherent Backscatter Opposition Effect (CBOE). Because of sparse VIMS phase coverage, it is not possible to constrain all the surge parameters at once in a Hapke function that has both SHOE and CBOE; accordingly, we performed separate Hapke fits for SHOE-only and CBOE-only surges. At 2.25 μm, where VIMS data are somewhat noisy, both types of surges can mimic the slope of the VIMS phase curve at <1° phase. At 0.91 and 1.73 μm, however—where VIMS data are “cleaner”—CBOE does a noticeably poorer job than SHOE of matching the VIMS phase coefficient at <1° phase; in particular, the best CBOE fit insists on having a steeper phase-curve slope than the data. This discrepancy suggests that Europa's near-IR opposition surge cannot be explained by CBOE alone and must have a significant SHOE component, even at wavelengths where Europa is bright.  相似文献

Two line element (TLE) released by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) is widely used by aerospace workers, and the matched SGP4/SDP4 (Simplified General Perturbation Version 4/Simplified Deep-space Perturbation Version 4) model is used to propagate it. Nevertheless, no corresponding information about its accuracy and covariance is clearly given, thus the application of the TLE data is greatly restricted. In this paper, the determined and predicted orbits are compared to generate the orbit error data, based on the historical TLE data obtained from the Space-Track website and the SGP4/SDP4 model. By dividing different time bins, the fitting coefficients of the variation of orbit prediction error with time are given for each space object, and the characteristics of the error evolution are further discussed for the different types of orbits. The mean analytic model of the orbit prediction error evolution with time is given respectively for the four orbit types of space objects, which provides a valuable reference for extending the application of the TLE data.  相似文献

We present an analysis of the time profiles detected during a solar impulsive flare, observed at one-millimeter radio frequency (48 GHz) and in three hard X-ray energy bands (25–62, 62–111, and 111–325 keV) with high sensitivity and time resolution. The time profiles of all emissions exhibit fast time structures of 200–300 ms half power duration which appear in excess of a slower component varying on a typical time scale of 10 s. The amplitudes of both the slow and fast variations observed at 48 GHz are not proportional to those measured in the three hard X-ray energy bands. However, the fast time structures detected in both domains are well correlated and occur simultaneously within 64 ms, the time resolution of the hard X-ray data. In the context of a time-of-flight flare model, our results put strong constraints on the acceleration time scales of electrons to MeV energies.  相似文献

Massive stars are of interest as progenitors of supernovae, i.e. neutron stars and black holes, which can be sources of gravitational waves. Recent population synthesis models can predict neutron star and gravitational wave observations but deal with a fixed supernova rate or an assumed initial mass function for the population of massive stars. Here we investigate those massive stars, which are supernova progenitors, i.e. with O‐ and early B‐type stars, and also all supergiants within 3 kpc. We restrict our sample to those massive stars detected both in 2MASS and observed by Hipparcos, i.e. only those stars with parallax and precise photometry. To determine the luminosities we calculated the extinctions from published multi‐colour photometry, spectral types, luminosity class, all corrected for multiplicity and recently revised Hipparcos distances. We use luminosities and temperatures to estimate the masses and ages of these stars using different models from different authors. Having estimated the luminosities of all our stars within 3 kpc, in particular for all O‐ and early B‐type stars, we have determined the median and mean luminosities for all spectral types for luminosity classes I, III, and V. Our luminosity values for supergiants deviate from earlier results: Previous work generally overestimates distances and luminosities compared to our data, this is likely due to Hipparcos parallaxes (generally more accurate and larger than previous ground‐based data) and the fact that many massive stars have recently been resolved into multiples of lower masses and luminosities. From luminosities and effective temperatures we derived masses and ages using mass tracks and isochrones from different authors. From masses and ages we estimated lifetimes and derived a lower limit for the supernova rate of ≈20 events/Myr averaged over the next 10 Myr within 600 pc from the sun. These data are then used to search for areas in the sky with higher likelihood for a supernova or gravitational wave event (like OB associations) (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

The STEP-F satellite telescope for measuring electrons and protons of the Photon scientific equipment is described. Its design features are given. The device detects electrons, protons, and α-particles in the energy range 0.18–2.3, 7.4–55.2, and 298–160.0 MeV, respectively. Geometric factors vary in the range of 12.4–21.7 cm2 sr, depending on the energy of the particles. In addition, there are three channels of mixed recording of particles of different types and channels of recording of the secondary electromagnetic radiation generated in the construction materials of the device and spacecraft. Methods and results of the computer simulation of the passage of the particle through detector materials are presented, along with configuration, calibration measurements, and tests (both standalone and integrated) within the complex of scientific instrumentation and spacecraft. Updated data on geometric factors of the device and energy ranges of the direct detection of charged high-energy particles and of channels of mixed recording of several types of particles are given. Special software is described for the rapid analysis of the processed data of the STEP-F telescope, and the visualization of time variations of particle fluxes with different time resolution in some periods of high solar activity and in its absence.  相似文献

Relationships have been studied between the background magnetic field and the distribution of active regions over the solar surface and time. A series of magnetic-field synoptic maps covering a 20-year period has been cross-correlated with spatio-temporal distributions of three types of active formations (sunspots, calcium plages, and solar flares) used as indicators of the active regions. To make the data analysis more effective, we expanded both the magnetic-field and the active-region distributions in terms of Fourier series in longitude, and then cross-correlated the latitude-dependent Fourier harmonics. Cross-correlation functions calculated from the lower-order Fourier harmonics exhibit prolonged maxima of the amplitude. For the first-order harmonic, the maxima can be tracked throughout a long time interval of at least 13 Carrington rotations, but the time of cross-correlation decreases down to 2 rotations, as the harmonic order increases up to 8. The maxima of the cross-correlation functions indicate moreover a poleward directed drift of the magnetic features that occurred with a velocity of 10–15 m s–1. The cross-correlation functions calculated separately by using the three types of active formations as indicators of the active regions are similar to each other, although they differ in some details of minor significance. The results of the data analysis make it possible to conclude that the cross-correlation between the magnetic-field and the active-region distributions displays long-term evolution of the magnetic features emerged in the photosphere in the form of the active regions, and that the evolution occurs in accordance with Leighton's (1964) concept known at present as the flux transport model. In order to verify this conclusion, we applied the cross-correlation technique to analyze a magnetic field distribution simulated by means of the flux transport equation by using an ensemble of local-scale magnetic bipoles as a source of magnetic flux. Results of the simulated magnetic field analysis exhibit a substantial qualitative agreement with those obtained by examining the observational data.  相似文献

Atmospheric densities have been deduced from high resolution radar-determined orbital decay data and from data obtained from a uniaxial accelerometer flown onboard the low altitude satellite 1970-48A. Data were obtained during late June and early July, 1970. The orbital decay-deduced densities, having an effective 6 hr temporal resolution, were determined at an altitude of 143 km, essentially one-half scale height above perigee. The accelerometer deduced densities at the same altitude were obtained on both the approaching-perigee and leaving-perigee portions of each of fifty-nine orbits. A detailed comparison of the densities derived from both types of data is presented. In general, agreement is very good. A comparison of both types of data has also been made with the Jacchia 1970 and 1971 atmospheric models as well as the new OGO-6 atmospheric model. The Jacchia models display reasonable agreement with the data, but the OGO-6 model is unsuitable as a representation of atmospheric density at this altitude.  相似文献

Revised photometric data are used to compare the light and colour curves of type I and type II supernovae (SNe I, SNe II); their statistical properties are also compared. No significant difference between SNe I and SNe II has been found in their radial distribution and frequency of outbursts in spiral galaxies. The comparison of light and colour curves reveals several features common to both types and the possibility of transition between types.  相似文献
