Bearing load vs penetration curves have been measured on a 1.3 g sample of lunar soil from the scoop of the Surveyor 3 soil mechanics surface sampler, using a circular indentor 2 mm in diameter. Measurements were made in an Earth laboratory, in air. This sample provided a unique opportunity to evaluate earlier, remotely controlled, in-situ measurements of lunar surface bearing properties. Bearing capacity, measured at a penetration equal to the indentor diameter, varied from 0.02–0.04 N cm–2 at bulk densities of 1.15 g cm–3 to 30-100 N cm–2 at 1.9 g cm–3. Deformation was by compression directly below the indentor at bulk densities below 1.61 g cm–3, by outward displacement at bulk densities over 1.62 g cm–3. Preliminary comparison of in-situ remote measurements with those on returned material indicates good agreement if the lunar regolith at Surveyor 3 has a bulk density of 1.6 g cm–3 at 2.5 cm. depth; definitive comparison awaits both better data on bulk density of the undisturbed lunar soil and additional mechanical-property measurements on returned material.  相似文献

On December 15, 1978, an omnidirectional gamma-ray detector for the energy range 0.3 to 10 MeV was flown from São José dos Campos, Brazil at a latitude of about -23°. Around noon time, when the Sun was in the field of view of the detector, various solar flares of importance SN and SF occurred. The 2.2 MeV line flux was monitored during this time. A statistically significant line flux of (1.55 ± 0.50) × 10–2 photons cm–2 s–1 and (9.97 ± 4.85) × 10–3 photons cm–2 s–1 was observed within a few minutes of t maxima of the two long-duration SN flares respectively, whereas during SF flares only upper limits were obtained.  相似文献

Measurements of the electron density in 16 flares are summarized and discussed. For 13 of them the electron density has been determined by the halfwidth method discussed in Part I of this paper. In the flash phase of all disk flares of importance 1 + and higher the electron density exceeds 1013 cm–3 and increases with the flare importance. In the maximum of large flares the electron density exceeds 3 × 1013 cm–3 and declines to 1013 cm–3 and to lower values in about 20 minutes after the flash phase. In limb flares, i.e. higher than 5000 km above the solar limb, the electron density is lower than 5 × 1012 cm–3. This shows a decrease of the electron density in the flare elements situated in higher parts of the chromosphere. On the other hand, however, at least in some flares the electron density remains fairly constant within a wide range of height in the upper chromosphere and the low corona.  相似文献

Methylidyne (CH) line observations were obtained at Algonquin from the diffuse molecular cloud envelope at G180.9+4.1, sandwiched between the optical H II region S241 and the molecular cloud core at G180.8+4.0. An analysis of these observations yields several of the envelope parameters, notably a CH column density of 2×1013 cm–2, a microturbulent velocity of 2.6 km s–1, and a total space density of 40 cm–3.  相似文献

An additional electron flux at an energy above 100 MeV was observed in the experiments carried out with high-altitude balloons flown at geomagnetic latitudes 46° and 49°, in the upper layers of the atmosphere, on the days following magnetic perturbations.Its intensity, equal to 6 × 10–2 cm–2s–1 sr–1, decreased over 20–30 hours. The effect observed confirms the presence of high-energy electrons in the regions of the trapped radiation.  相似文献

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

Line observations of the methylidyne (CH) molecule were performed at Algonquin, toward the reflection nebula vdB102. An analysis of the molecular cloud behind vdB102 yielded several envelope parameters, notably a CH column density of 1×1013 cm–2, a microtubulent velocity of 1.4 km s–1, and a total space density of 1300 cm–3. These observed data are consistent with a stationary reflection nebula roughly facing the earth, located on the near side of the surface of a compact molecular cloud.  相似文献

The properties of explosive events in the solar transition zone are presented by means of detailed examples and statistical analyses. These events are observed as regions of exceptionally high velocity ( 100 km s–1) in profiles of Civ, formed at 105 K, observed with the High Resolution Telescope and Spectrograph (HRTS). The following average properties have been determined from observations obtained during the third rocket flight of the HRTS: full width at half maximum extent along the slit - 1.6 × 103 km; maximum velocity - 110 km s–1; peak emission measure - 4 × 1041 cm–3; lifetime - 60 s; birthrate - 4 × 10–21 cm–2 s–1 in a coronal hole and 1 × 10–20 cm–2 s–1 in the quiet Sun; mass - 6 × 108 g; and, kinetic energy - 6 × 1022 erg. The 6 examples show that there are considerable variations from these average parameters in individual events. Although small, the events show considerable spatial structure and are not point-like objects. A spatial separation is often detected between the positions of the red and blue shifted components and consequently the profile cannot be explained by turbulence alone. Mass motions in the events appear to be isotropic because the maximum observed velocity does not show any correlation with heliographic latitude. Apparent motions of the 100 km s–1 plasmas during their 60 s lifetime should be detected but none are seen. The spatial frequency of occurrence shows a maximum near latitudes of 40–50°, but otherwise their sites seem to be randomly distributed. There is enough mass in the explosive events that they could make a substantial contribution to the solar wind. It is hard to explain the heating of typical quiet structures by the release of energy in explosive events.  相似文献

The masers of E-type methanol in orion KL and SGR B2   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  
Using a simplified model the statistical equilibrium and radiative transfer equations of E-type-CH3OH are solved for Orion KL and SgrB2. According to our calculation results and the observation data taken by Matsakiset al. (1980) and Morimotoet al. (1985a, b), the physical conditions of both sources are estimated. In theJ 2-J 1 E methanol maser region of Orion KL, the density, kinetic temperature, dust temperature, and the fractional abundance are 0.8–2×106 cm–3, 150, 30–90 K, 0.8–8×10–6. In the 4–1-30 E and 5–1-40 E methanol maser region of Sgr B2 the correspondance physical conditions above are 104 cm3, 45, 23 K, and 7×10–7, respectively.  相似文献

We describe an imaging telescope for observations of celestial sources in the energy range between 30 keV and 1.8 MeV onboard stratospheric balloons. The detector is a 41 cm diameter, 5 cm thick NaI(Tl) crystal coupled to 19 photomultipliers in an Anger camera configuration. It is surrounded by a plastic scintillator 15 cm thick on the sides, 0.2 cm thick at the top and 20 cm thick at the bottom. The imaging device is based upon a 19 × 19 element square MURA (Modified Uniformly Redundant Array) coded mask mounted in an one-piece mask-antimask configuration. The detector's spatial resolution is about 10 mm at 100 keV. This is the first experiment to use such a mask pattern and configuration for astrophysical purposes. The expected 3 sensitivity for an on-axis source observed for 104 s at a residual atmosphere of 3.5 g cm–2 is 1.44 × 10–5 photons cm–2 s–1 keV–1 at 100 keV and 1.00 × 10–6 photons cm–2 s–1 keV–1 at 1 MeV. The angular resolution is approximately 14 arcminutes over a 13°field of view. The instrument is mounted in an automatic platform with a capability for pointing and stabilization in both azimuth and elevation axis with 2 arcmin accuracy.Presented at the 2nd UN/ESA Workshop, held in Bogotá, Colombia, 9-13 November, 1992.  相似文献

We have sought interstellar ethyl-cyanide via its 202–101 transition towards two cold, dark clouds and report upper limits of the total column densities of 3×1012cm–2 and 2×1012cm–2 for TMC-1 and L134N, respectively. We also observed the 202–101 transition of vinyl cyanide previously identified in TMC-1 by Matthews and Sears (1983b). The detection of vinyl cyanide and the non-detection of ethyl cyanide in TMC-1 are consistent with gas phase ion-molecule chemical models, and there is thus no necessity of invoking grain surface synthesis for vinyl cyanide in cold clouds.  相似文献

Based on spectral observations of active region NOAA 8545 on 19 May 1999, we describe the processes responsible for non-thermal long-lasting radio emission and for narrow-band non-drifting bursts observed at the same time. Non-thermal long-lasting radio emission consisted of two components: short-duration (1–2 s) microbursts with fluxes about 0.001 s.f.u. and continuum emission with growing spectrum in the range of 1000–2000 MHz. Energetic electrons continuously existed in the active region for more than 2.2 hours. The nature and parameters of microbursts were discussed by Bogod, Mercier, and Yasnov (2001). Here we consider the continuum source nature. It is shown that the model, taking into account the cyclotron loss-cone instability of hot electrons and the generation of plasma waves at the upper hybrid frequency, may explain the observed continuum source parameters. For the narrow-band non-drifting bursts we consider two models: the first taking into account an excitation of weak shock waves across the magnetic field and the second with an excitation of the upper hybrid waves under the double plasma resonance. Continuum source parameters are close to the last model. Our estimations for the magnetic field strength are as follows: H=120–126 G, which is valid for the region where the electron density of background plasmas n=(1.4–1.9) ×109 cm–3; H=180–190 G for the region where n=(3.0–4.3) ×109 cm–3; H=290 G for the region where n e=2.5×1010 cm–3; and H=350 G for the region where n e=3.5×1010 cm–3. The speed of the fast electrons is about 0.10–0.14 c.  相似文献

Spectroscopy of thez=2.0763 absorption line system in A2206-199N shows that it has a very large hydrogen column density (5×1020 cm–2) but extremely weak absorption due to heavy elements. We discuss the possibility that the gas cloud causing this absorption system may be exceptionally metal-poor.Paper presented at the IAU Thrid Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.  相似文献

Night airglow of oxygen 130.4 and 135.6 nm emissions was measured by a spectrophotometer aborad an S520 sounding rocket, launched at 19:50 JST (10:50 UT) on 14 February, 1982 from Kagoshima, Japan. The altitude variation of the emissions was obtained from 110 to 266 km at zenith angles of 35.5°±4°. The emission intensity around 260 km was about 160R and is roughly compatible with model calculations taking account of O++e – radiative recombination as well as O+–O– mutual neutralization. Some excess of about 50R, compared to the model calculation, was observed around 200 km. Possible explanations of the excess are: (i) remnant oxygen ions during the transition period from day to night and (ii) diffuse radiation from the background sky. Model calculations taking account of remnant oxygen ions were also performed by adding an excess electron density to the original density profile. However, it was found that an unreasonably large electron density is required around 200 km (5×105 cm–3) to produce the observed intensity. It is also probable that some contribution from the background sky is present in the observed intensity.  相似文献

A very low upper limit of 0.15 mÅ for the interstellar 6707 Å Lii line has been recently derived towards the SN1987a by Baade and Magain (1988). This value corresponds toN(Li)<1.4×1011 cm–2 and gives [Li/H]<5.4×10–11 assumingN(Hi)=2.6×1021 cm–2 for the hydrogen column density in the LMC towards SN1987a. This value is lower than the Li abundance found in the Population II stars and lower than the minimum abundance allowed in the framework of the standard Big-Bang theory. We indirectly estimate the Li depletion usingKi observations and show that a depletion of 1.2 dex is plausible. Therefore, an interstellar abundance [Li/H] as high as 0.8×10–9 cannot be excluded. Any improvement in the above-mentioned upper limit will place important constraints on current theories for lithium nucleosynthesis.High-resolution IUE spectra of the SN1987a have been analysed in search for IS 1362 ÅBii resonance lines. A minimum detectable equivalent width of 22 mÅ has been found, that impliesN(B)<1.2×10–12 cm–2 and [B/H]<4.7×10–10 cm–2, i.e., comparable to the solar value of [B/H]=4×10–10. This limit is the most stringent derived so far for an external galaxy, and suggests that the rate of spallation processes in the LMC has not been higher than in our own Galaxy.  相似文献

Since its launch on March 8, 1967, the OSO-III has continuously observed solar and cosmic X-rays over the 7.7–210 keV range. The sun emits many impulsive X-ray bursts having fluxes several orders of magnitude above the background level of 8 × 10–9 ergs(cm2-sec)–1 at 7.7 keV and characteristic times on the order of 5 min. Ninety-five such events having fluxes >3 × 10–5 ergs(cm2-sec)–1 were detected in the period from March 8 to June 15, 1967. The cosmic X-ray source Lupus XR-1 has been observed to have a power law spectral form and no significant time variations over a 40-day period. Upper limits have been obtained on the hard X-ray flux of the peculiar galaxy M 87.  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 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

Up to now, there has been no corroboration from Cassini CIRS of the Voyager IRIS-discovery of cyanoacetylene (HC3N) ice in Titan’s thermal infrared spectrum. We report the first compelling spectral evidence from CIRS for the ν6 HC3N ice feature at 506 cm−1 at latitudes 62°N and 70°N, from which we derive particle sizes and column abundances in Titan’s lower stratosphere. We find mean particle radii of 3.0 μm and 2.3 μm for condensed HC3N at 62°N and 70°N, respectively, and corresponding ice phase molecular column abundances in the range 1-10 × 1016 mol cm−2. Only upper limits for cloud abundances can be established at latitudes of 85°N, 55°N, 30°N, 10°N, and 15°S. Under the assumption that cloud tops coincide with the uppermost levels at which HC3N vapor saturates, we infer geometric thicknesses for the clouds equivalent to 10-20 km or so, with tops at 165 km and 150 km at 70°N and 62°N, respectively.  相似文献
