A technique is proposed for the successive reconstruction of the branches of the strip brightness distribution for a quasar accretion disk via the analysis of observations of high magnification flux events in the multiple quasar images produced by a gravitational lens. The distribution branches are searched for on compact sets of nonnegative, monotonically nonincreasing, convex downward functions. The results of numerical simulations and application of the technique to real observations show that the solution obtained is stable against random noise. Analysis of the light curve of a high magnification event in image C of the gravitational lens QSO 2237+0305 observed by the OGLE group in summer 1999 has yielded the form of the strip brightness distribution in the accretion disk of the lensed quasar. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that the quasar disk was scanned by a fold caustic. The form of the strip distribution is consistent with the expected appearance of an accretion disk rotating around a supermassive black hole.  相似文献

This paper describes a method for analyzing observations of the passage of a star through a gravitational lensing caustic that enables the derivation of information about the brightness distribution across the stellar disk without knowledge of the lens parameters. The ill-posed inverse problem of reconstructing a one-dimensional strip brightness distribution across the stellar disk is solved using a regularization method, taking into account the non-negative nature of this function. Assuming the source is circularly symmetric, the search for the radial brightness distribution is carried out over compact sets of upward-convex, non-negative functions or functions that do not grow with distance from the stellar center. The method is used to analyze the gravitational microlensing event MACHO 98-SMC-1, of a star in the Small Magellanic Cloud, obtained by the PLANET international group. The resulting brightness distribution is compared with computations of limb darkening for model stellar atmospheres.  相似文献

Using a model-independent technique, we have reconstructed a one-dimensional strip distribution of the brightness over a stellar disk from observations of microlensing of a Galactic bulge star by a caustic of the binary gravitational lens OGLE-1999-BUL-23, obtained by the international PLANET group. The ill-posed inverse problem was solved using a regularization method taking into account the non-negativity of the brightness distribution. The radial brightness distribution was searched for on a compact set of convex-upward, monotonically non-increasing, non-negative functions, assuming that the source is circularly symmetrical. The reconstructed brightness distribution is compared with the results of model fitting and limb-darkening calculations based on models of stellar atmospheres.  相似文献

We have analyzed a master light curve of the classical T Tauri star RY Tau. The brightness variations observed in 1983–2004 were found to be periodic. A period of 377 ± 10 d is derived using a frequency analysis. A statistical analysis shows that the brightness variability cannot be described by a normal distribution. The brightness variations could be due to the presence of some bodies being formed in the circumstellar environment.  相似文献

The radio brightness distribution at 5.2 cm has been obtained along the entire solar limb down to a level of 0.01 of brightness temperature at the disk center T 0 c during the solar minimum. The measurements are based on strip scans from the Siberian Solar Radio Telescope. Data reduction included model fitting of an actual solar scan for each position angle. The maximum limb brightness, 1.37 T 0 c , in the derived distribution is at equatorial direction, where the radio radius exceeds the photosphere radius by 7%. Toward the poles, the brightness peak and radio radius gradually decrease to 1.01 T 0 c and 1.005 R0. The derived two-dimensional brightness distribution was used to calculate radio radius as a function of position angle for several wavelengths from 4 to 31.6 cm. These dependences are consistent with RATAN-600 observations at position angles 0° and 25°.  相似文献

考虑地基土体的非均质特性,采用非线性Mohr-Coulomb强度准则及其关联流动法则构造了浅埋水平条形锚板的曲线型破裂机制与机动许可速度场,根据极限分析上限定理推导了条形锚板抗拔承载力的表达式。利用变分极值原理求得了锚板抗拔承载力及其上方土体破裂面的上限解,分析了锚板埋深、土体非均质和非线性强度特性对锚板抗拔承载特性的影响,并将该上限解与已有计算方法进行了对比。结果表明:锚板埋深、土体非均质和非线性强度特性对其抗拔承载力与破裂面特征具有明显的影响。锚板埋深和土体非均质系数越大以及土体非线性强度系数越小,锚板抗拔承载力和土体破裂面深度、宽度均是越大。该上限解与极限平衡和极限分析有限元方法的计算结果基本一致,验证了所采用的曲线型破裂机制和地基非均质变化规律有效性,为条形锚板设计提供了一定的参考。  相似文献

We consider microlensing of stars by a spacetime tunnel (wormhole), which is manifest as a gravitational lens with negative mass and a circular caustic in the source plane. If a source with a small angular size does not cross the circular caustic, it is impossible to discriminate between gravitational lenses with positive and negative mass. Even for comparatively large stellar angular diameters, differences from a Schwarzschild lensing curve are on the order of the observational errors. When the angular size of a star is comparable to the radius of the Einstein cone, for a sufficiently large impact parameter, the shape of the observed light curves can be similar to that due to microlensing of a compact object surrounded by an extended gaseous envelope. Such an object can be easily distinguished from a negative-mass gravitational lens via analysis of chromatic and polarization effects of the lensing.  相似文献

We analyze calibrated white-light coronal images from the LASCO-C2/SOHO experiment (processing level L1), focusing on quasistationary events without coronal mass ejections or their manifestations in the solar wind. The previous result that the streamer belt forms a set of rays of increased brightness is confirmed. The cross section of the streamer belt is frequently observed as two closely spaced rays differing in brightness. It is difficult to explain this in terms of ordinary bending of the belt. We suggest that the belt is normally a set of pairs of rays with enhanced brightness (or two close rows of rays). The distance between the rays in each pair is comparable to the ray size. The ray brightnesses in any pair can, in general, be different. The magnetic field has opposite directions in the rays forming a pair, so that the neutral line of the radial component of the solar magnetic field probably runs along the strip between the pairs of rays.  相似文献

In the present study, forward radiative transfer simulations are carried out for the tropical cyclone Fanoos that hit the coast off south India in December 2005. The in-house radiative transfer package used for this study employs the doubling and adding method to calculate radiances leaving the top of the one dimensional precipitating atmosphere. The particle drop size distribution is assumed to follow a modified gamma distribution in respect of the cloud liquid water and cloud ice water content. For precipitation, the Marshall-Palmer particle size distribution is used. All the hydrometeor particles are assumed to be spherical and Lorentz Mie theory is used to evaluate the interaction parameters like absorption, scattering coefficients and polarized scattering matrix. In order to validate the drop size distributions and interaction parameter calculations, the simulated brightness temperatures are compared with the TMI measured brightness temperatures for all the channels. For carrying out this exercise, vertical hydrometeors retrieved by TMI are used as input. The differences between simulated and measured brightness temperatures are found to be within ±10%. The maximum difference in the brightness temperatures between the present work and the Eddington model which the TRMM algorithm employs is about 4.5K. This may become significant when retrieval of precipitation is attempted by combining the forward model with a suitable retrieval strategy, under tropical conditions.  相似文献

The spatial and temporal brightness distributions of the Fe XIV 530.3 nm coronal green line (CGL) and cyclic variations of these distributions are analyzed for a long time interval covering more than five 11-year cycles (1943–2001). The database of line brightnesses is visually represented in the form of a movie. Substantial restructuring of the spatial distribution of the CGL brightness occur over fairly short time intervals near the so-called reference points of the solar cycle; such points can be identified based on various sets of solar-activity indices. Active longitudes are observed in the CGL brightness over 1.5–3 yr. Antipodal and “alternating” active longitudes are also detected. The movie can be used to compare the CGL brightness data with other indicators of solar activity, such as magnetic fields. The movie is available at http://helios.izmiran.rssi.ru/hellab/Badalyan/green/.  相似文献

The Arequipa June 23, 2001, earthquake with a moment magnitude of Mw 8.4 struck southern Peru, northern Chile and western Bolivia. This shallow (29 km deep) interplate event, occurring in the coupled zone of the Nazca subduction next to the southeast of the subducting Nazca ridge, triggered very localized but widely outspread soil liquefaction. Although sand blows and lateral spreading of river banks and road bridge abutments were observed 390 km away from the epicenter in the southeast direction (nearing the town of Tacna, close to the Chile border), liquefaction features were only observed in major river valleys and delta and coastal plains in the meizoseismal area. This was strongly controlled by the aridity along the coastal strip of Southern Peru. From the sand blow distribution along the coastal area, a first relationship of isolated sand blow diameter versus epicentral distance for a single event is ever proposed. The most significant outcome from this liquefaction field reconnaissance is that energy propagation during the main June 23, 2001, event is further supported by the distribution and size of the isolated sand blows in the meizoseismal area. The sand blows are larger to the southeast of the epicenter than its northwestern equivalents. This can be stated in other words as well. The area affected by liquefaction to the northwest is less spread out than to the southeast. Implications of these results in future paleoliquefaction investigations for earthquake magnitude and epicentral determinations are extremely important. In cases of highly asymmetrical distribution of liquefaction features such as this one, where rupture propagation tends to be mono-directional, it can be reliably determined an epicentral distance (between earthquake and liquefaction evidence) and an earthquake magnitude only if the largest sand blow is found. Therefore, magnitude estimation using this uneven liquefaction occurrence will surely lead to underrating if only the shortest side of the meizoseismal area is unluckily studied, which can eventually be the only part exhibiting liquefaction evidence, depending on the earthquake location and the distribution of liquefaction-prone environments.  相似文献

Brightness temperature is a main index to reflect the energy of microwave radiation of an object. Using lunar brightness temperature data, physical properties of lunar regolith, such as thickness, heat flow and dielectric permittivity, could be interpreted. There are two methods to study brightness temperature distribution of the moon: the first is used to measure lunar brightness temperature by radio observation or spaceborne microwave radiometers, and the second is used to simulate calculation by the physical model. On the basis of the measurements of lunar brightness temperature in the history, this study analyzed the main physical model of lunar brightness temperature, also including its theory and influence factors. The authors concluded that surface and subsurface temperatures of the moon, dielectric properties and layered structure of lunar regolith were the main factors affecting the global brightness temperature of the moon. These factors should be quantified in detail in the future research.  相似文献

Hailstorms represent one of the major sources of damage and insurance loss to residential, commercial, and agricultural assets in several parts of Central Europe. However, there is little knowledge of hail risk across Europe beyond local historical damage reports due to the relative rarity of severe hail events and the lack of uniform detection methods. Here we present a new stochastic catalog of hailstorms for Europe. It is based on satellite observations of overshooting cloud tops (OT) that indicate very strong convective updrafts and hail reports from the European Severe Weather Database (ESWD). Historic hail events are defined based on OT detections from satellite infrared brightness temperatures between 2004 and 2011 for the warm seasons (April–September). The satellite-based historical event properties are complemented by hailstone observations from ESWD to stochastically simulate more than 1 million individual events with an event footprint resolution of 10 km. The final hail event catalog presented in this paper is the first one with a spatial event distribution that is based on a single homogeneous observation source over Europe. Areas of high hail probability or hail risk are found over Central and Southern Europe, including mountainous regions such as the Alps or the Pyrenees. Another region of relatively high hail risk is present over central Eastern Europe.  相似文献

The solar event SOL2012–10–23T03:13, which was associated with a X1.8 flare without an accompanying coronal mass ejection (CME) and with a Type II radio burst, is analyzed. A method for constructing the spatial and temporal profiles of the difference brightness detected in the AIA/SDOUVand EUV channels is used together with the analysis of the Type II radio burst. The formation and propagation of a region of compression preceded by a collisional shock detected at distances R < 1.3R from the center of the Sun is observed in this event (R is the solar radius). Comparison with a similar event studied earlier, SOL2011–02–28T07:34 [1], suggests that the region of compression and shock could be due to a transient (impulsive) action exerted on the surrounding plasma by an eruptive, high-temperature magnetic rope. The initial instability and eruption of this rope could be initiated by emerging magnetic flux, and its heating from magnetic reconnection. The cessation of the eruption of the rope could result from its interaction with surrounding magnetic structures (coronal loops).  相似文献

We have obtained continuous latitude distributions of the K and F corona brightnesses at various distances for the first time, using both the Hayes—Vourlidas—Howard method and our own recently proposed, simple technique for separating the emission of the K and F coronas. Data from the LASCO C2 and C3 coronagraphs are analyzed. Variations of the angular size of the brightness distribution of the F corona with latitude and distance are estimated, as well as the ratio of the maximum F-corona brightness to the F-corona brightness at the pole. The variations in the F-corona brightness at large distances (R = 25 R , where R is the solar radius) are studied on various time scales—a month, a year, and 11 years (the solar cycle). The latitude distribution of the F-corona brightness varies most appreciably over a year, and only weakly over one solar revolution and one solar-activity cycle (as considered on a fixed day of the year).  相似文献

Continuous photometric observations of the young active solar-type star Corot-Exo-2a using the “Corot” space telescope obtained over 142 days were used to analyze the star’s surface temperature inhomogeneities and to monitor their continuous evolution. This analysis was based on the iPH code, which reconstructs the distribution of temperature inhomogeneities on the surface of a star based on its light curve in a two-temperature approximation. We identified five time intervals in the positions of active areas, with corresponding flip-flop events, interpreted as activity periods. Their durations were between 55 and 15 days. The time scale for the active-longitude flip-flops of Corot-Exo-2a is a few tens of days, rather than years, as for other stars studied earlier. We detected motions of the active longitudes, possibly indicating differential rotation of the star. The phenomenon of flip-flops in the positions of active longitudes has a complex character. This is the first case apart fromthe Sun where we are able to follow the appearance and development of temperature inhomogeneities on a stellar surface in such detail. We determined typical timescales for variations of the activity parameter of the star in the ranges 17–20, 28–32, 33–38, and 51–55 days, which characterize changes of the brightness variation amplitude, the spotted surface area, positions of active areas, and brightness variations.  相似文献

Moisture sources and transport paths for precipitation are of primary importance for forecasts and early warning, but are rarely studied in the arid region of China. Our study employed the hybrid single-particle Lagrangian integrated trajectory (HYSPLIT) model to investigate and quantify the moisture sources which contributed to a torrential rainfall event on 15–18 July 2007 in the arid Xinjiang region in China. Based on the distribution of torrential rains, the target study region was selected at East Xinjiang (35°N–45°N, 80°E–95°E). The results indicate that moisture sources originating from the south, west, and north branches, and moisture sources in the Atlantic Oceans and Central Asia regions contributed to the East Xinjiang rain event by 37 and 44%, respectively. Our findings match those from diagnostic results of an Eulerian framework model, but the HYSPLIT model provided better quantitative and objective results.  相似文献

Strip mining in mines is one of the main mining methods to control surface subsidence and protect the ecological environment. In recent years, strip mining has induced frequent rock burst accidents due to the increase in mining intensity and mining depth. Based on two typical deep strip mining accidents, the characteristics of the changes in spatial structure of the overlying strata caused by strip mining are studied, and the influencing factors of the occurrence of strip mining rock burst are analyzed. A support pressure calculation model is proposed, and estimated and verified in a mine after an analysis of the change law of the overlying strata structure in strip mining and research on the distribution and evolution law of support pressure. Based the above research, a risk evaluation model of the strip mining face is proposed based on the possibility index method, the 4203 working face of a mine is evaluated. Compared with the numerical simulation results, this method is well consistent with the theoretical calculation model. It can be seen that this method has strong practicability and is of great significance for studying the rock burst characteristics of coal seams in strip mining and evaluating the risk of rock burst of coal seams.

Photographic plates of the Harvard Observatory stacks have been used to obtain 1261 brightness estimates for the low-amplitude Cepheid FF Aql (P = 4.47 days). Combined with published visual, photoelectric, and CCD observations, these data enable the construction of an O-C diagram spanning 122 years. The resulting O-C diagram is parabola-shaped, enabling the determination of quadratic brightness elements for the first time. The evolutionary rate of increase of the period, dP/dt = 0.072 ± 0.011 s/year, is in agreement with theoretical computations for the third crossing of the instability strip. The available data, reduced using the technique of by Eddington and Plakidis, reveal the presence of small, random period fluctuations, ? = 0.0061d ± 0.0044d, that do not distort the evolutionary trend of the O-C residuals.  相似文献

Two clay gel systems, a sample of settled oil sands clay tailings and a montmorillonite gel, were effectively dewatered by conversion to calcium forms by ion exchange, followed by freezing and thawing in the case of the montmorillonite gel and by either centrifugation or freezing and thawing in the case of the oil sands slime. Maximum dewatering was shown to be associated with complete conversion to the calcium forms. The implications of caustic recovery during the process are discussed.  相似文献
