Strong absorption satellite lines of CaI 6572 were found on spectrograms taken on three successive days just after the fourth contact of the 1971–72 eclipse of Zeta Aurigae. The radial velocities of the satellite lines are –88 km s–1, –74 km s–1, and –180 km–1, respectively, relative to the K-type primary star (K4 Ib). These absorptions should be due to a circumstellar cloud in which the column density of neutral calcium atoms is 1×1017 cm–2 and the turbulent velocities come to 20–50 km s–1. It is suggested that the cloud may be formed by the rocket-effect of the Lyman quanta of the B-type component (B6 V). We estimate the density in the cloud to be 2×1011 atoms cm–3 fors=10R K and 2×1010 atoms cm–3 fors=102 R K, wheres denotes the distance of the cloud from the K star andR K the K star's radius. The mass loss rate of the K-type component is also estimated to be about 10–7 M yr–1, assuming that the expansion of the K star occurs isotropically.  相似文献

An ASCA observation of the Jovian impact of the comet Shoemaker-Levy 9 is reported. Four impacts of H, L, Q1 and R were observed and four impacts of B, C, G, and Q2 were observed within 60 minutes after their impacts. No significant flaring of X-ray emission was observed. Upper limit X-ray fluxes of 90 % confidence level, averaged 5 minutes just after the impacts, were 2.4 × 10–13 erg sec–1 cm–2, 3.5 × 10–13 erg sec–1 cm–2, 1.6 × 10–13 erg sec–1 cm–2 and 2.9 × 10–13 erg sec–1 cm–2 for the impacts of H, L, Q1 and R, respectively, in the 0.5(0.7 for H and Q1)–10 keV energy range. However, a hint of X-ray enhancement around Jupiter from July 17 to July 19 was detected with about 2 6 × 10–14 erg sec–1 cm–2 in the 0.5–10 keV energy range.  相似文献

The diffuse far UV radiation ( 1350–1480 Å) observed in the sky region ofl II180°, 0°b II40° is analyzed in connection with the distributions of stars and dust grains as well as with optical properties of grains. Its intensity (starlight+scattered light) is about 6×10–7 erg cm–2 sec–1 sr–1 Å–1 in the direction ofb II0° andl II180°. The latitude dependence of the intensity is in approximate agreement with the plane parallel slab model of the galaxy with a reasonable set of parameters. The interstellar scattering gives an albedo close to unity and forward phase function of about 0.6, which are not inconsistent with the model of interstellar grains of Wickramasinghe. The upper limit of the extragalactic UV is 2×10–8 erg cm–2 sec–1 sr–1 Å–1 in the same region of wave-length.  相似文献

Sudden phase anomalies (SPA's) observed in the phase of GBR 16 kHz VLF signals during the years 1977 to 1983 have been analysed in the light of their associated solar X-ray fluxes in the 0.5–4 Å and 1–8 Å bands. An attempt has been made to investigate the solar zenith angle () dependence of the integrated solar X-ray flux for producing SPA's. It is deduced from the observations for < 81° that the phase deviation increases linearly as a whole with increasing solar X-ray fluxes in these two bands. The threshold X-ray flux needed to produce a detectable SPA effect has been estimated to be 1.6 × 10–4 ergcm–2 s–1 and 1.8 × 10–3 ergcm–2 s–1 in the 0.5–4 Å and 1–8 Å bands, respectively. For both bands the average cross section for all atmospheric constituents at a height of 70 km is almost equal to the absorption cross section for the 3 Å X-ray emission.  相似文献

By processing 494 observations of Comet Harrington–Abell, we obtained a unified system of elements that includes its turn around the Sun during which it closely approached Jupiter to a minimum distance of 0.037 AU in 1974. A study of the cometary orbit before and after the approach showed that, probably, at the approach of the comet to Jupiter, apart from the well-known gravitational perturbations, its motion was affected by an additional force. An improvement of the cometary orbit by assuming that an additional acceleration inversely proportional to the square of the distance to Jupiter exists in its motion yielded the following values: (4.57 ± 0.42) × 10–10 and (–7.20 ± 0.42) × 10–10 AU day–2 for the radial and transversal acceleration components, respectively. As a plausible explanation of the changes in the cometary orbit, we additionally considered a model based on the hypothesis of partial disintegration of the cometary nucleus. The parameter that characterizes the instant displacement of the center of inertia along the jovicentric radius vector was estimated to be –1.83 ± 0.75 km. Based on a unified numerical theory of cometary motion, we determined the nongravitational parameters using Marsden's model for two periods: A 1 = (11.68 ± 1.74) × 10–10 AU day–2, A 2 = (0.53 ± 0.0357) × 10–10 AU day–2 for 1975–1999 and A 1 = (5.92 ± 5.86) × 10–10 AU day–2, A 2 = (0.08 ± 0.028) × 10–10 AU day–2 for 1955–1969, under the assumption that the nongravitational acceleration changed at the approach of the comet to Jupiter.  相似文献

This paper deals with molecular clouds discovered in the absorption spectra (z=2–3) of distant quasars. It is argued that these clouds belong to the gaseous subsystems of young galaxies. We estimate the gas concentration to ben<104 cm–3 in the cloud observed in the direction of the quasar PHL957. It is shown that this cloud is exposed to ultraviolet radiation. The UV-energy flux does not exceed the value typical for our Galaxy by an order of magnitude (F2×10–6 ergs cm–2 s–1 Å–1 at =2000 Å). The mechanisms maintaining the thermal balance in this cloud are discussed.  相似文献

The isotropic cumulative burst rate of 7030 –6000 +10000 yr–1 at a fluence ofS=8.47×10–9 erg–1 cm–2 determined by Beurleet al. from their observation of two gamma-ray bursts is shown to be statistically improbable. The difficulty arises from their assumption that the power law cumulative distribution function index equals one. Their observations are rediscussed and an upper limit ofN(>8.47×10–9 erg cm–2)<5400 yr–1 is proposed.  相似文献

Soft X-rays (0.2–1.0 keV) have been detected from the high galactic latitude source MX 2140-60 in a rocket experiment. The measured flux of 10–10 erg cm–2 s–1 combined with OSO-7 measurements in 2–40 keV X-rays, are best fit by a power law photon spectrum with spectral index 2.3 and a neutral hydrogen column densityN H=(3–7) 1020 atoms cm–2. The observations support the source identification with the cluster of galaxies SC 2146-594, as suggested by Lugger.  相似文献

Laboratory transmission IR spectra of relatively thick films (up to 500 m) of mixed H2O and SO2 ices were measured at several temperatures between 10 and 130 K in the range 5000-450 cm–1. In addition to the strong features due to crystalline SO2 the spectra reveal bands at 3668 cm–1, 3634 cm–1 (with some structure) and 3300 cm–1 which are identified with H2O in SO2 environment. Also, there is no overlap between any of the H2O bands with the 3584 cm–1 band of SO2 at any temperature in the above range. The implication of this result is that H2O, if present on Io, must be far less than 1 part in 105 SO2.  相似文献

Extreme ultraviolet spectra of several active regions are presented and analyzed. Spectral intensities of 3 active regions observed with the NRL Skylab XUV spectroheliograph (170–630 Å) are derived. From this data density sensitive line ratios of Mg viii, Si x, S xii, Fe ix, Fe x, Fe xi, Fe xii, Fe xiii, Fe xiv, and Fe xv are examined and typically yield, to within a factor of 2, electron pressures of 1 dyne cm–2 (n e T = 6 × 1015 cm–3 K). The differential emission measure of the brightest 35 × 35 portion of an active region is obtained between 1.4 × 104 K and 5 × 106 K from HCO OSO-VI XUV (280–1370 Å) spectra published by Dupree et al. (1973). Stigmatic EUV spectra (1170–1710 Å) obtained by the NRL High Resolution Telescope and Spectrograph (HRTS) are also presented. Doppler velocities as a function of position along the slit are derived in an active region plage and sunspot. The velocities are based on an absolute wavelength scale derived from neutral chromospheric lines and are accurate to ±2 km s–1. Downflows at 105 K are found throughout the plage with typical velocities of 10 km s–1. In the sunspot, downflows are typically 5 to 20 km s–1 over the umbra and zero over the penumbra. In addition localized 90 and 150 km s–1 downflows are found in the umbra in the same 1 × 1 resolution elements which contain the lower velocity downflows. Spectral intensities and velocities in a typical plage 1 resolution element are derived. The velocities are greatest ( 10 km s–1) at 105 K with lower velocities at higher and lower temperatures. The differential emission measure between 1.3 × 104 K and 2 × 106 K is derived and is found to be comparable to that derived from the OSO-VI data. An electron pressure of 1.4 dynes cm–2 (n e T = 1.0 × 1016 cm–3 K) is determined from pressure sensitive line ratios of Si iii, O iv, and N iv. From the data presented it is shown that convection plays a major role in determining the structure and dynamics of the active region transition zone and corona.  相似文献

The detailed evolution of low-mass main-sequence stars (M < 1M ) with a compact companion is studied. For angular momentum loss associated with magnetic braking it is found that about 10–11–10–12 M yr–1 in stellar wind loss would be required. This wind is 102–103 times stronger than the solar wind, so we believe here magnetic stellar wind is insufficient. It is well known that there is mass outflow in low-mass close binary systems. We believe here that these outflows are centrifugal driven winds from the outer parts of the accretion disks. The winds extract angular momentum from these systems and therefore drive secular evolution. Disk winds are preferred to winds from the secondary, because of the lower disk surface gravity.  相似文献

Elemental abundances of the VH group of cosmic radiation have been measured in the energy interval 250–550 MeV nucl–1 in a balloon exposure at Sioux Falls (South Dakota) of a plastic detector LeXAN stack. The so obtained abundances have been extrapolated to the sources in the frame of the homogeneous model correcting for energy loss. After taking into account solar modulation, the best fit to model values has led to a escape mean free path e = 5E –0.4 g cm–2, whereE is the energy in GeV nucl–1, forE>1 GeV nucl–1, and a constant e = 5 g cm–2 forE1 GeV nucl–1. When turning to the diffusion model, also including an energy loss term, a diffusion coefficientD=3×1028 cm2 s–1 has been estimated.  相似文献

The results of 2 1/2 years (July 1967 – December 1969) monitoring of solar radio bursts at 71 GHz ( = 4.2 mm) at the Radio and Space Research Station, Slough are presented. During this period only seven events were positively identified as 71 GHz bursts. One of these events (6 July, 1968) is among the largest solar bursts ever recorded anywhere in the microwave-millimetre wave band (47000 × 10–22Wm–2Hz–1), and the associated magnetic field may possibly have exceeded 7200 G. Another event (27 March, 1969) has demonstrated that bursts at 71 GHz can be both intense (4700 × 10–22Wm–2Hz–1) and complex. On other occasions, the absence of any detectable event at 71 GHz helps to define the high frequency spectrum of the burst, this being an important factor in determining the initial energy distribution of the electrons ejected by the associated flare. On one such occasion (21 March, 1969) the derived energy distribution index is 8, in contrast with the more usual values of 2–4.1969–1970 NCR-OAR Senior Post-Doctoral Research Associate at Air Force Cambridge Research Laboratories, L.

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

A first period study of the eclipsing binary XY Ceti is presented. A new period (P=2d.7807135), based on all available times of minima, is given. Period changes in different portions of the O–C diagram, with a new period, have been estimated. The total change in period (P/P) ranges from 1.1×10–5 d to 1.2×10–4 d, thus, P ranges from 3.1×10–5 d to 3.3×10–4 d. The O–C diagram suggests that the trend of the period has changed around the year 1959. Two portions of increasing and decreasing trends also reveal that the period changes (P/P) of the order of 10–5 d are present, which are appreciably large.  相似文献

Data accumulated by the Solar Maximum Mission Gamma Ray Spectrometer (GRS) have been searched for evidence of the 2.223 MeV neutron capture line from the Sun, outside the times of -ray-emitting solar flares. Background-corrected spectra accumulated over 3-day intervals between 1980 and 1989 show no evidence of the line. Upper limits are reported separately for periods of high and low solar activity.A conservative 3 upper limit of 5.7 × 10–5 (cm2 s)–1 is placed on the steady flux in the 2.223 MeV line during inactive periods, which is nearly two orders of magnitude lower than previously published results. After correction for limb darkening of the line emission from off-center positions, this upper limit becomes 7.1 × 10–5 (cm2s)–1. Our 3 upper limit on the steady flux in the line during periods of high solar activity is 6.9 × 10–5 (cm2 s)–1, or 8.6 × 10–5 (cm2 s)–1 after correction for limb darkening. Our results imply that the quiescent solar corona cannot be heated by ions accelerated above 1 MeV in microflares (or a continuous acceleration process), so long as the ion energy spectrum is similar to that measured in large flares. We also use our results to derive the rate of tritium production at the solar surface; our upper limit of 9 nuclei (cm2 s)–1 is about a factor of 9 below the upper limit from searches for 3H in the solar wind. We place upper limits of the order 1033 on the number of energetic (> 30 MeV) protons which can be stored in active regions prior to being released in solar flares, which imply that the strongest observed flares cannot be produced by such a mechanism.  相似文献

It has been shown that Alfvén waves can drive non-inductive current in solar coronal loops via collisional or collisionless damping. Assuming that all the coronal-loop density of dissipated wave power (W= 10–3 erg cm–3 s–1), which is necessary to keep the plasma hot, is due to Alfvén wave electron heating, we have estimated the axial current density driven by Alfvén waves to be jz 103–105 statA cm–2. This current can indeed support the quasi-stationary equilibrium and stability of coronal loops and create the poloidal magnetic field up to B 1–5 G.  相似文献

The analysis of the Th/U ratio in meteorites and the evolutionary ages of globular clusters favour values of the cosmic age of (19±5)×109 yr. This evidence together with a Hubble parameterH 0>70 km s–1 Mpc–1=(14×109 yr)–1 cannot be reconciled in a Friedmann model with =0. It requires a cosmological constant in the order of 10–56 cm–2, equivalent to a vacuum density v =10–29 g cm–3 The Friedmann-Lemaître models (>0) with a hot big-bang have been calculated. They are based on a present value of the baryonic matter density of 0=0.5×10–30 g cm–3 as derived from the primordial4He and2H abundances.For a Hubble parameter ofH 0=75 km s–1 Mpc–1, our analysis favours a set of models which can be represented by a model with Euclidean metric (density parameter 0=1.0, deceleration parameterq 0=–0.93, aget 0=19.7×109 yr) and by a closed model with perpetual expansion (0=1.072,q 0=–1.0, aget 0=21.4×109 yr). A present density parameter close to one can indeed be expected if the conjecture of an exponential inflation of the very early universe is correct.The possible behaviour of the vacuum density is demonstrated with the help of Streeruwitz' formula in the context of the closed model with an inflationary phase at very early times.  相似文献

Gamma-ray observations are discussed to determine the density of protons of about 1 MeV precipitating to the photosphere. It is shown that Coulomb collisions will produce a positive slope in the proton distribution for energies less than 0.1 MeV for traversed column depths greater than 1018 cm –2. This could lead to plasma wave emission and radiation near the plasma frequency for densities 3.1 × 1010 cm–3 and temperatures 4.0 × 104 K where collisional and collisionless damping of the plasma waves is sufficiently weak. It is expected that these conditions will only be satisfied sporadically which leads to stationary radio emission limited in frequency and time. Recent radio observations of impulsive phase non-drifting patches in the 1–3 GHz range with duration 2–4 s are presented which could be produced by this mechanism.  相似文献

It is shown that cosmic radiation almost follows a Planck distribution, because just as matter is formed, its density of energy is negligible in comparison with that of radiation, and that the present age of the Universe does not depend on the particular manner in which the matter is formed.Thus, if the results of the latest observations (which imply a deceleration parameterq=1.6) are combined with the assumption that the present age of the Universe is at least 12×109 yr, they lead to a hyperbolic oscillating universe with a negative cosmological constant (<–1.53×10–56 cm–2) and a present mass-density m of less than 1.2×10–30 g cm–3. If the cosmological constant is taken to be zero, a solution is only possible if we are prepared to admit a rate of evolution of galaxies with a deceleration parameterq<0.52. Three types of oscillating universe are then possible, but the heperbolic type is the most probable. If Hubble's constant is greater than 63.4 km s–1 Mpc–1, the solutions are only hyperbolic universes with <+0.45×10–56 cm–2 and m <4.8×10-30g cm-3.
Sommaire On montre que le rayonnement cosmique général suit pratiquement une loi de Planck parce que la densité d'énergie de la matière au moment de sa formation est négligeable à côté de celle du rayonnement et que l'âge actuel de l'Univers ne dépend pas du mode de formation de la matière.Dans ces conditions, si l'on combine les derniers résultats d'observations (qui impliquent un paramètre de décélérationq=1.6) avec l'hypothèse que l'âge actuel de l'Univers est au moins de 12×109 années on est conduit à un Univers hyperbolique oscillant à constante cosmologique négative (<–1.53×10–56 cm–2) et où l'actuelle densité de matière m est moindre que 1.2×10–30 g cm–3. Si la constante cosmologique est supposée nulle, une solution ne peut être obtenue que si l'on admet un certain taux d'évolution des Galaxies et un paramètre de décélérationq<0.52. Alors, les trois types d'Univers oscillants sont possibles, mains les Univers hyperboliques paraissent plus probables. Enfin, si la constante de Hubble est plus grande que 63.4 km s–1 Mpc–1 les solutions ne peuvent être que des Univers hyperboliques avec <+0.45×10–56 cm–2 et m <4.8×10-30g cm-3.
