On the number of isolating integrals in systems with three degrees of freedom     

Claude Froeschle 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1971,14(1):110-117

Dynamical systems with three degrees of freedom can be reduced to the study of a fourdimensional mapping. We consider here, as a model problem, the mapping given by the following equations: $$\left\{ \begin{gathered} x_1 = x_0 + a_1 {\text{ sin (}}x_0 {\text{ + }}y_0 {\text{)}} + b{\text{ sin (}}x_0 {\text{ + }}y_0 {\text{ + }}z_{\text{0}} {\text{ + }}t_{\text{0}} {\text{)}} \hfill \\ y_1 = x_0 {\text{ + }}y_0 \hfill \\ z_1 = z_0 + a_2 {\text{ sin (}}z_0 {\text{ + }}t_0 {\text{)}} + b{\text{ sin (}}x_0 {\text{ + }}y_0 {\text{ + }}z_{\text{0}} {\text{ + }}t_{\text{0}} {\text{) (mod 2}}\pi {\text{)}} \hfill \\ t_1 = z_0 {\text{ + }}t_0 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} \right.$$ We have found that as soon asb≠0, i.e. even for a very weak coupling, a dynamical system with three degrees of freedom has in general either two or zero isolating integrals (besides the usual energy integral).  相似文献   

Global solution of the ideal resonance problem     

Boris Garfinkel 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1973,8(2):207-212

If a dynamical problem ofN degress of freedom is reduced to the Ideal Resonance Problem, the Hamiltonian takes the form 1 $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {F = B(y) + 2\mu ^2 A(y)\sin ^2 x_1 ,} & {\mu \ll 1.} \\ \end{array} $$ Herey is the momentum-vectory _k withk=1,2?N, x ₁ is thecritical argument, andx _k fork>1 are theignorable co-ordinates, which have been eliminated from the Hamiltonian. The purpose of this Note is to summarize the first-order solution of the problem defined by (1) as described in a sequence of five recent papers by the author. A basic is the resonance parameter α, defined by 1 $$\alpha \equiv - B'/\left| {4AB''} \right|^{1/2} \mu .$$ The solution isglobal in the sense that it is valid for all values of α² in the range 1 $$0 \leqslant \alpha ^2 \leqslant \infty ,$$ which embrances thelibration and thecirculation regimes of the co-ordinatex ₁, associated with α² < 1 and α² > 1, respectively. The solution includes asymptotically the limit α² → ∞, which corresponds to theclassical solution of the problem, expanded in powers of ε ≡ μ², and carrying α as a divisor. The classical singularity at α=0, corresponding to an exact commensurability of two frequencies of the motion, has been removed from the global solution by means of the Bohlin expansion in powers of μ = ε^1/2. The singularities that commonly arise within the libration region α² < 1 and on the separatrix α² = 1 of the phase-plane have been suppressed by means of aregularizing function 1 $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {\phi \equiv \tfrac{1}{2}(1 + \operatorname{sgn} z)\exp ( - z^{ - 3} ),} & {z \equiv \alpha ^2 } \\ \end{array} - 1,$$ introduced into the new Hamiltonian. The global solution is subject to thenormality condition, which boundsAB″ away from zero indeep resonance, α² < 1/μ, where the classical solution fails, and which boundsB′ away from zero inshallow resonance, α² > 1/μ, where the classical solution is valid. Thedemarcation point 1 $$\alpha _ * ^2 \equiv {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 \mu }} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} \mu }$$ conventionally separates the deep and the shallow resonance regions. The solution appears in parametric form 1 $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} {x_\kappa = x_\kappa (u)} \\ {y_1 = y_1 (u)} \\ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {y_\kappa = conts,} & {k > 1,} \\ \end{array} } \\ {u = u(t).} \\ \end{array} $$ It involves the standard elliptic integralsu andE((u) of the first and the second kinds, respectively, the Jacobian elliptic functionssn, cn, dn, am, and the Zeta functionZ (u).  相似文献   

Attractors in a dissipative dynamical system with three dimensions     

Yi-Sui Sun 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1985,37(2):171-181

We study an extension of the Hénon mapping to a dissipative dynamical system with three-dimensions and discuss the behavior of the attractors of the Hénon mapping in the extended mapping $$T:\left\{ {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {X_{i + 1} = Y_i + 1 - AX_i^2 + C cos Z_i } \\ {Y_{i + 1} = BX_i + D \sin Z_i } \\ {Z_{i + 1} = Z_i + E \sin Y_{i + 1} + F, (\bmod 2\pi ).} \\ \end{array} } \right.$$ The results show that the strange attractor is destroyed by perturbed extension more easily than the trivial attractor and the invariant manifold of the conservative dynamical system.  相似文献   

Some further reduction formulas for certain classes of-generalized multiple hyper geometric series arising in physical,astrophysical, and quantum chemical applications     

H. M. Srivástava 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1991,181(2):195-202

The multivariable hypergeometric function $$F_{q_0 :q_1 ;...;q_n }^{P_0 :P_1 ;...;P_n } \left( {\begin{array}{*{20}c} {x_1 } \\ \vdots \\ {x_n } \\ \end{array} } \right),$$ considered recently by A. W. Niukkanen and H.M. Srivastava, is known to provide an interesting unification of the generalized hypergeometric function_p F _q of one variable, Appell and Kampé de Fériet functions of two variables, and Lauricella functions ofn variables, as also of many other hypergeometric series which arise naturally in various physical, astrophysical, and quantum chemical applications. Indeed, as already pointed out by Srivastava, this multivariable hypergeometric function is an obvious special case of the generalized Lauricella function ofn variables, which was first introduced and studied by Srivastava and M. C. Daoust. By employing such fruitful connections of this multivariable hypergeometric function with much more general multiple hypergeometric functions studied in the literature rather systematically and widely, Srivastava presented several interesting and useful properties of this function, most of which did not appear in the work of Niukkanen. The object of this sequel to Srivastava's work is to derive a further reduction formula for the multivariable hypergeometric function from substantially more general identities involving multiple series with essentially arbitrary terms. Some interesting connections of the results considered here with those given in the literature, and some indication of their applicability, are also provided.  相似文献   

Mass loss and shell masses of close binary stars     

V. G. Karetnikov 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1987,131(1-2):675-679

From the values of period changes for 6 close binary stars the mass transfer rate was calculated. Comparing these values M_t with the values of shell masses M_sh, the expression $$lg \dot M_t = \begin{array}{*{20}c} {4.24} \\ { \pm 24} \\ \end{array} + \begin{array}{*{20}c} {0.63} \\ { \pm 6} \\ \end{array} lg M_{sh} $$ Was derived. The analysis of this expression points out the initial character of the outflow of matter, and one may determine the time interval of the substitution of the shell matter. So one may conclude that for a certain mass transfer rate, a certain amount of matter accumulates in the nearby regions of the system. The study of orbital period changes of close binary stellar systems led to the idea that these secular and irregular changes are due to the mass loss and to the redistribution of masses in a close binary. Secular changes of orbital periods are known for approximately 400 eclipsing binary stars. For many stars, including cataclysmic binaries, irregular period changes are known. Thus, the mass loss and the matter redistribution in close binaries are often observed phenomena.  相似文献   

The perturbed ideal resonance problem     

Alan H. Jupp 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1973,7(1):91-106

The author's previous studies concerning the Ideal Resonance Problem are enlarged upon in this article. The one-degree-of-freedom Hamiltonian system investigated here has the form $$\begin{array}{*{20}c} { - F = B(x) + 2\mu ^2 A(x)\sin ^2 y + \mu ^2 f(x,y),} \\ {\dot x = - F_y ,\dot y = F_x .} \\ \end{array}$$ The canonically conjugate variablesx andy are respectively the momentum and the coordinate, andμ ² is a small positive constant parameter. The perturbationf is o (A) and is represented by a Fourier series iny. The vanishing of ?B/?x≡B ⁽¹⁾ atx=x ₀ characterizes the resonant nature of the problem. With a suitable choice of variables, it is shown how a formal solution to this perturbed form of the Ideal Resonance Problem can be constructed, using the method of ‘parallel’ perturbations. Explicit formulae forx andy are obtained, as functions of time, which include the complete first-order contributions from the perturbing functionf. The solution is restricted to the region of deep resonance, but those motions in the neighbourhood of the separatrix are excluded.  相似文献   

Static spherically-symmetric scalar-field theory in general relativity     

Demetrios D. Dionysiou 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1982,88(2):493-499

A spherically-symmetric static scalar field in general relativity is considered. The field equations are defined by $$\begin{gathered} R_{ik} = - \mu \varphi _i \varphi _k ,\varphi _i = \frac{{\partial \varphi }}{{\partial x^i }}, \varphi ^i = g^{ik} \varphi _k , \hfill \\ \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ where ?=?(r,t) is a scalar field. In the past, the same problem was considered by Bergmann and Leipnik (1957) and Buchdahl (1959) with the assumption that ?=?(r) be independent oft and recently by Wyman (1981) with the assumption ?=?(r, t). The object of this paper is to give explicit results with a different approach and under a more general condition $$\phi _{;i}^i = ( - g)^{ - 1/2} \frac{\partial }{{\partial x^i }}\left[ {( - g)^{1/2} g^{ik} \frac{\partial }{{\partial x^k }}} \right] = - 4\pi ( -g )^{ - 1/2} \rho $$ where ?=?(r, t) is the mass or the charge density of the sources of the field.  相似文献   

Astrophysical thermonuclear functions     

W. J. Anderson  H. J. Haubold  A. M. Mathai 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1994,214(1-2):49-70

Stars are gravitationally stabilized fusion reactors changing their chemical composition while transforming light atomic nuclei into heavy ones. The atomic nuclei are supposed to be in thermal equilibrium with the ambient plasma. The majority of reactions among nuclei leading to a nuclear transformation are inhibited by the necessity for the charged participants to tunnel through their mutual Coulomb barrier. As theoretical knowledge and experimental verification of nuclear cross sections increases it becomes possible to refine analytic representations for nuclear reaction rates. Over the years various approaches have been made to derive closed-form representations of thermonuclear reaction rates (Critchfield, 1972; Haubold and John, 1978; Haubold, Mathai and Anderson, 1987). They show that the reaction rate contains the astrophysical cross section factor and its derivatives which has to be determined experimentally, and an integral part of the thermonuclear reaction rate independent from experimental results which can be treated by closed-form representation techniques in terms of generalized hypergeometric functions. In this paper mathematical/statistical techniques for deriving closed-form representations of thermonuclear functions, particularly the four integrals $$\begin{gathered} I_1 (z,v)\mathop = \limits^{def} \int\limits_0^\infty {y^v e^{ - y} e^{ - zy^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } dy,} \hfill \\ I_2 (z,d,v)\mathop = \limits^{def} \int\limits_0^\infty {y^v e^{ - y} e^{ - zy^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } dy,} \hfill \\ I_3 (z,t,v)\mathop = \limits^{def} \int\limits_0^\infty {y^v e^{ - y} e^{ - z(y + 1)^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } dy,} \hfill \\ I_4 (z,\delta ,b,v)\mathop = \limits^{def} \int\limits_0^\infty {y^v e^{ - y} e^{ - by^\delta } e^{ - zy^{ - {1 \mathord{\left/ {\vphantom {1 2}} \right. \kern-\nulldelimiterspace} 2}} } dy,} \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ will be summarized and numerical results for them will be given. The separation of thermonuclear functions from thermonuclear reaction rates is our preferred result. The purpose of the paper is also to compare numerical results for approximate and closed-form representations of thermonuclear functions. This paper completes the work of Haubold, Mathai, and Anderson (1987).  相似文献   

Balloon observations of Sco X-1 in the energy interval 17–106 keV     

A. K. Jain  U. B. Jayanthi  K. Kasturirangan  U. R. Rao 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1973,21(1):107-116

The paper presents the intensity and spectral nature of the X-ray emission from Sco X-1 in the energy interval 17–106 keV based on the observations made by a balloon borne scintillation telescope system flown on November 15, 1971 from Hyderabad, India. In the 25–53 keV interval, the spectral distribution is observed to correspond to akT value of keV assuming the shape to be exponential. Over the complete energy range of observation, a power law function with the value of exponent equal to 3.6±0.5 seems to yield an adequate fit. Comparing the present data with those obtained elsewhere, the temporal characteristics of the X-ray emission from Sco X-1 are discussed.  相似文献   

A few observations of and remarks on V1500 Cygni     

T. T. Chia  E. F. Milone  R. Robb 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1977,48(1):3-19

The development of the post-nova light curve of V1500 Cyg inUBV andHβ, for 15 nights in September and October 1975 are presented. We confirm previous reports that superimposed on the steady decline of the light curve are small amplitude cyclic variations. The times of maxima and minima are determined. These together with other published values yield the following ephemerides from JD 2 442 661 to JD 2 442 674: $$\begin{gathered} {\text{From}} 17 {\text{points:}} {\text{JD}}_{ \odot \min } = 2 442 661.4881 + 0_{^. }^{\text{d}} 140 91{\text{n}} \hfill \\ \pm 0.0027 \pm 0.000 05 \hfill \\ {\text{From}} 15 {\text{points:}} {\text{JD}}_{ \odot \max } = 2 442 661.5480 + 0_{^. }^{\text{d}} 140 89{\text{n}} \hfill \\ \pm 0.0046 \pm 0.0001 \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ with standard errors of the fits of ±0 _. ^d 0052 for the minima and ±0 _. ^d 0091 for the maxima. Assuming V1500 Cyg is similar to novae in M31, we foundr=750 pc and a pre-nova absolute photographic magnitude greater than 9.68.  相似文献   

On pulsar-driven isothermal blast-wave models of supernova remanants     

I. Lerche 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1977,48(2):335-356

We investigate the ‘equilibrium’ and stability of spherically-symmetric self-similar isothermal blast waves with a continuous post-shock flow velocity expanding into medium whose density varies asr ^?ω ahead of the blast wave, and which are powered by a central source (a pulsar) whose power output varies with time ast ^ω?3. We show that:

1. for ω<0, no physically acceptable self-similar solution exists;
2. for ω>3, no solution exists since the mass swept up by the blast wave is infinite;
3. ? must exceed zero in order that the blast wave expand with time, but ?<2 in order that the central source injects a finite total energy into the blast wave;
4. for 3>ω_min(?)>ω>ω_max(?)>0, where $$\begin{gathered} \omega _{\min } (\varphi ){\text{ }} = {\text{ }}2[5{\text{ }} - {\text{ }}\varphi {\text{ }} + {\text{ }}(10{\text{ }} + {\text{ 4}}\varphi {\text{ }} - {\text{ 2}}\varphi ^2 )^{1/2} ]^2 [2{\text{ }} + {\text{ (10 }} + {\text{ 4}}\varphi {\text{ }} - {\text{ 2}}\varphi ^2 {\text{)}}^{{\text{1/2}}} ]^{ - 2} , \hfill \\ \omega _{\max } (\varphi ){\text{ }} = {\text{ }}2[5{\text{ }} - {\text{ }}\varphi {\text{ }} - {\text{ }}(10{\text{ }} + {\text{ 4}}\varphi {\text{ }} - {\text{ 2}}\varphi ^2 )^{1/2} ]^2 [2{\text{ }} - {\text{ (10 }} + {\text{ 4}}\varphi {\text{ }} - {\text{ 2}}\varphi ^2 {\text{)}}^{{\text{1/2}}} ]^{ - 2} , \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ two critical points exist in the flow velocity versus position plane. The physically acceptable solution must pass through the origin with zero flow speed and through the blast wave. It must also pass throughboth critical points if \(\varphi > \tfrac{5}{3}\) , while if \(\varphi< \tfrac{5}{3}\) it must by-pass both critical points. It is shown that such a solution exists but a proper connection at the lower critical point (for ?>5/3) (through whichall solutions pass with thesame slope) has not been established;
5. for 3>ω>ω_min(?) it is shown that the two critical points of (iv) disappear. However a new pair of critical points form. The physically acceptable solution passing with zero flow velocity through the origin and also passing through the blast wave mustby-pass both of the new critical points. It is shown that the solution does indeed do so;
6. for 3>ω_min(?)>ω_max(?)>ω it is shown that the dependence of the self-similar solution on either ω or ? is non-analytic and therefore, inferences drawn from any solutions obtained in ω>ω_max(?) (where the dependence of the solutionis analytic on ω and ?) are not valid when carried over into the domain 3>ω_min(?)>ω_max(?)>ω;
7. all of the physically acceptable self-similar solutions obtained in 3>ω>0 are unstable to short wavelength, small amplitude but nonself-similar radial velocity perturbations near the origin, with a growth which is a power law in time;
8. the physical self-similar solutions are globally unstable in a fully nonlinear sense to radial time-dependent flow patterns. In the limit of long times, the nonlinear growth is a power law in time for 5<ω+2?, logarithmic in time for 5>ω+2?, and the square of the logarithm in time for 5=ω+2?.

The results of (vii) and (viii) imply that the memory of the system to initial and boundary values does not decay as time progresses and so the system does not tend to a self-similar form. These results strongly suggest that the evolution of supernova remnants is not according to the self-similar form.  相似文献   

Gamma-ray burst measurements with A 6.3 m2 array     

K. Beurle  A. Bewick  J. S. Mills  J. J. Quenby 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1981,77(1):201-214

Two flights from Alice Springs, Australia, were achieved in November 1977 and November 1978 with a plastic scintillator -burst detector, effective area 6.3 m², thickness 5 cm, energy response in the range 50 keV to 2 MeV. In 33 hr of good, high altitude data, two bursts were detected, yielding a rate corrected to an isotropic flux of at a size of 8.5×10^–9 erg cm^–2. One event, seen at 22.14 on 15 Nov 1978, was confirmed by spacecraft measurements. The second, too small to be detected by spacecraft, arrived from 0 hr RA, –13.2° Decl. ±12° and possibly comes from a confirmed -burst source location. A galactic origin with a source distribution originating from a relatively thick disk, is favoured by these results.  相似文献   

Normality condition in the ideal resonance problem     

Boris Garfinkel 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1972,6(2):151-166

The Ideal Resonance Problem, defined by the Hamiltonian $$F = B(y) + 2\mu ^2 A(y)\sin ^2 x,\mu \ll 1,$$ has been solved in Garfinkelet al. (1971). As a perturbed simple pendulum, this solution furnishes a convenient and accurate reference orbit for the study of resonance. In order to preserve the penduloid character of the motion, the solution is subject to thenormality condition, which boundsAB" andB' away from zero indeep and inshallow resonance, respectively. For a first-order solution, the paper derives the normality condition in the form $$pi \leqslant max(|\alpha /\alpha _1 |,|\alpha /\alpha _1 |^{2i} ),i = 1,2.$$ Herep _i are known functions of the constant ‘mean element’y', α is the resonance parameter defined by $$\alpha \equiv - {\rm B}'/|4AB\prime \prime |^{1/2} \mu ,$$ and $$\alpha _1 \equiv \mu ^{ - 1/2}$$ defines the conventionaldemarcation point separating the deep and the shallow resonance regions. The results are applied to the problem of the critical inclination of a satellite of an oblate planet. There the normality condition takes the form $$\Lambda _1 (\lambda ) \leqslant e \leqslant \Lambda _2 (\lambda )if|i - tan^{ - 1} 2| \leqslant \lambda e/2(1 + e)$$ withΛ ₁, andΛ ₂ known functions of λ, defined by $$\begin{gathered} \lambda \equiv |\tfrac{1}{5}(J_2 + J_4 /J_2 )|^{1/4} /q, \hfill \\ q \equiv a(1 - e). \hfill \\ \end{gathered}$$   相似文献   

Effect of oblateness on the non-linear stability of L 4 in the restricted three-body problem     

P. V. Subba Rao  Ram Krishan Sharma 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1996,65(3):291-312

Non-linear stability of the libration point L ₄ of the restricted three-body problem is studied when the more massive primary is an oblate spheroid with its equatorial plane coincident with the plane of motion, Moser's conditions are utilised in this study by employing the iterative scheme of Henrard for transforming the Hamiltonian to the Birkhoff's normal form with the help of double D'Alembert's series. It is found that L ₄ is stable for all mass ratios in the range of linear stability except for the three mass ratios: $$\begin{gathered} \mu _{c1} = 0.0242{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}{}^{{\text{\_\_}}}0.1790{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}A_1 , \hfill \\ \mu _{c2} = 0.0135{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}{}^{{\text{\_\_}}}0.0993{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}A_1 , \hfill \\ \mu _{c3} = 0.0109{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}{}^{{\text{\_\_}}}0.0294{\text{ }}...{\text{ }}A_1 . \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$   相似文献

Gravitational harmonics from shallow resonant orbits     

C. A. Wagner  S. M. Klosko 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1977,16(2):143-163

Until very recently, there has been no identification of the significant gravitational constraints on the many common artificial earth satellite orbits in shallow resonance. Without them it is difficult to compare results derived for different sets of harmonics from different orbits. With them it is possible to extend these results to any degree without reintegration of the orbits. All such constraints are shown to be harmonic in the argument of perigee with constants determinable from tracking data: $$(C*,S*) = (C_0 ,S_0 ) + \sum\limits_{i = 1}^\infty {(C_{Ci} ,S_{Ci} )\cos i\omega + (C_{Si} ,S_{Si} )\sin i\omega .} $$ The constants are simple linear combinations of geopotential harmonics. Five such constants (lumped harmonics) have been derived for the GEOS-2 orbit (order 13, to 30th degree) whose principal resonant period is 6 days. These five lumped harmonics are shown to account for almost all (>98%) of the resonant information in the tracking. They agree well with recent gravitational models which include substantial amounts of GEOS-2 data.  相似文献   

Nonlinear newtonian theory and the effect of time dilatation     

Demetrios D. Dionysiou 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1984,104(2):389-397

The fact that the energy density ρ_g of a static spherically symmetric gravitational field acts as a source of gravity, gives us a harmonic function \(f\left( \varphi \right) = e^{\varphi /c^2 } \) , which is determined by the nonlinear differential equation $$\nabla ^2 \varphi = 4\pi k\rho _g = - \frac{1}{{c^2 }}\left( {\nabla \varphi } \right)^2 $$ Furthermore, we formulate the infinitesimal time-interval between a couple of events measured by two different inertial observers, one in a position with potential φ-i.e., dt _φ and the other in a position with potential φ=0-i.e., dt ₀, as $${\text{d}}t_\varphi = f{\text{d}}t_0 .$$ When the principle of equivalence is satisfied, we obtain the well-known effect of time dilatation.  相似文献
