Temporal evolution of whistler instability has been studied due to cold plasma injectionin the presence of a perpendicular AC electric field in the magnetosphere of Uranus. Ageneralized distribution function with index j, which is a reducible to a bi-Maxwellianfor j = 0 and to a loss-cone for j = 1, for a plasma in the presence of a perpendicularAC electric field, has been derived from a hot/warm background plasma and atime-dependent plasma described by a simple Maxwellian distribution has been considered to represent the injected cold plasma. An expression for the growth rate of a system with added time-dependent cold plasma injection has been calculated using the method of characteristics and kinetic approach The results obtained for representative value of the parameters suited to the Uranian magnetosphere in both cases have been compared and discussed. It is inferred that the temperature anisotropy remains the major source of free energy whereas a loss-cone background acts as an additional source of free energy for the instability. It is not the magnitude but the frequency of the AC field which Influences the growth rate. In comparison to the Uranian magnetosphere this effect is more significant in Earth's magnetosphere. As the ionisation time of the time-dependent injected cold plasma increases, the growth rate goes on increasing, this effect being much greater in a loss-cone background in comparison to a bi-Maxwellian background plasma time-dependence of thecold plasma has been considered since it represents a more realistic situation in injection experiments. 相似文献

The expression for power radiated from a dipole within an anisotropic plasma has been obtained in presence of a current source and time-varying irregularities. This may be useful for numerical computation in lossy media. 相似文献

The exact analytic expression for the density of energetic charged particles, which were injected by an instantaneous point
source at a particular pitch angle into the interplanetary medium, has been derived. We start from the Boltzmann kinetic equation
with the collision integral describing the isotropic particle scattering by "massive" magnetic clouds. The solution has been
obtained without any expansion parameters in the 3-dimensional vector form, then it was projected into the cylindrical coordinate
system. The space-time particle distribution is disscussed.

In this paper, the nonlinear dispersion relation for whistlers in the ionosphere has been derived and then the group travel time for an ion-cyclotron whistler from its source to an observer at the satellite has been theoretically calculated. It is seen that the nonlinear effect has some important contribution in the expression of group travel time. Our present analysis gives a more correct result than that obtained by Gurnett and others. From numerical estimations, it is found that the group travel time of whistler may be changed reasonably due to nonlinear interaction of the wave and the plasma of ionosphere. 相似文献

It has been known for years now that pick-up ions (PUIs) are produced by ionization of interstellar neutral atoms in the heliosphere and are then convected outwards with the solar wind flow as a separate suprathermal ion fluid. Only poorly known is the thermal behaviour of these pick-ups while being convected outwards. On the one hand they drive waves since their distribution function is unstable with respect to wave growth, on the other hand they also experience Fermi-2 energizations by nonlinear wave-particle interactions with convected wave turbulences. Here we will show that this complicated network of interwoven processes can quantitatively be balanced when adequate use is made of transport-kinetic results according to which pick-up ions essentially behave isothermally at their convection to large solar distances. We derive the adequate heat source necessary to maintain this pick-up ion isothermy and use the negative of that source to formulate the enthalpy flow conservation for solar wind protons (SWPs). This takes care of a consistent PUI-induced heat source guaranteeing that the net energy balance in the SWP–PUI two-fluid plasma is satisfied. With this PUI-induced heat input to SWPs we not only obtain the well-observed SWP polytropy, but we can also derive an expression for the percentage of intitial pick-up energy fed into the thermal proton energy. By a first-order evaluation of this expression we then can estimate that, dependent on the actual PUI temperature, about 40 to 50% of the initial pick-up energy is globally passed to solar protons within the inner heliosphere. 相似文献

In the present paper a model of the cosmic radio source with plasma, relativistic electrons and chaotic magnetic fields is considered. It is assumed that the energy changes of relativistic electrons which are due to spontaneous scattering on the transverse and Langmuir plasmons take place in this radio source. For such a radio source the kinetic equation has been solved in the presence of the injected or formed secondary electrons and the frequency spectrum has been obtained. 相似文献

Combined-Operations method has been utilised to solve the problem of diffuse reflection by a homogeneous, isotropic, non-coherent scattering spherical medium. The source function is considered to be frequency independent. The auxiliary equation has been formulated, the scattering function defined, and the integro-differential equation for this function deduced. A method for obtaining the emergent intensity and the internal source function for non-zero internal source distribution has been suggested for a given line profile. 相似文献

Cometary outbursts, sudden increases in luminosity have not been clearly explained so far and their source is still a mystery. Various possible mechanisms as a source of cometary outbursts at large distances from the Sun have been considered. It has been stated that plausible mechanisms are the polymerization of HCN and the amorphous water ice transformation combined with electrostatic destruction of cometary grains in the head of the comet. The calculations have been carried out for a large range of cometary parameters and it has been shown that the proposed scenario of the outburst gives a jump in the comet brightness which is consistent with the real jump observed during the 29P/Schwassmann‐Wachmann 1 outbursts. 相似文献

A radio source with a spectral index of −2.2 between 0.08 and 1.425 GHz has been observed at the Very Large Array (VLA) at 1.425 GHz with resolution ∼ 3 arcsec. The projected linear length of the source is 56 kpc with an average projected distance of 42 kpc from the centroid of the rich southern cluster Abell 4038, assuming the source is in the cluster. The physical parameters of the source include a high minimum-energy field ( B me ) of 38 μG, which is unusual for a source of low surface brightness and relaxed appearance, but is explained by its unusually steep spectrum. Although its radio morphology has some characteristics of a narrow-angle-tail source (NAT), the absence of an identified host galaxy ( m R ≥ 23.0) makes it unlikely that the source is a working radio galaxy. The relic is probably the remains of an FR II radio galaxy that was once energized by a particular bright cluster elliptical now 18 kpc to its east. The density of the intracluster gas has been sufficient to confine the source and preserve its morphology, permitting the source to age and its spectrum to steepen through synchrotron and inverse Compton energy losses. 相似文献

The EGRET telescope aboard the NASA Compton Gamma-Ray Observatory ( CGRO ) has repeatedly detected 3EG J1835+5918, a bright and steady source of high-energy gamma-ray emission which has not yet been identified. The absence of any likely counterpart for a bright gamma-ray source located 25° off the Galactic plane initiated several attempts of deep observations at other wavelengths. We report on counterparts in X-rays on a basis of a 60-ks ROSAT HRI image. In order to conclude on the plausibility of the X-ray counterparts, we reanalysed data from EGRET at energies above 100 MeV and above 1 GeV, including data up to CGRO observation cycle 7. The gamma-ray source location represents the latest and probably the final positional assessment based on EGRET data. We especially address the question of flux and spectral variability, here discussed using the largest and most homogeneous data set available at high-energy gamma-rays for many years. The results from X-ray and gamma-ray observations were used in a follow-up optical identification campaign at the 2.2-m Guillermo Haro Telescope at Cananea, Mexico. VRI imaging has been performed at the positions of all of the X-ray counterpart candidates, and spectra were taken where applicable. The results of the multifrequency identification campaign toward this enigmatic unidentified gamma-ray source are given, especially on the one object which might be associated with the gamma-ray source 3EG J1835+5918. This object has the characteristics of an isolated neutron star and possibly of a radio-quiet pulsar. 相似文献

We present a detailed analysis of the high-energy gamma-ray source 2EG J0008+7307. The source has a steady flux and a hard spectrum, softening above 2 GeV. The properties of the gamma-ray source are suggestive of emission from a young pulsar in the spatially coincident CTA 1 supernova remnant, which has recently been found to have a non-thermal X-ray plerion. Our 95 per cent uncertainty contour around the > 1 GeV source position includes the point-like X-ray source at the centre of the plerion. We propose that this object is a young pulsar and is the most likely counterpart of 2EG J0008+7307. 相似文献

In this paper we show how to calculate the neutrino flux from a resolved source of high energy gamma-rays, of which have been measured fluxes and spectral indexes of each of the parts in which has been divided for the observations. For the calculation of the neutrino flux need to know the theoretical photon/neutrino ratios and have to consider the oscillation probability of neutrinos. As a numerical example the case of the Supernova Remnant RX J1713.7-3946 observed by H.E.S.S. experiment is presented here. Gamma-rays up to tens of TeV have been observed from RX J1713.7-3946, making this source a possible site of hadronic interactions and thus a source of neutrinos. The H.E.S.S. experiment observed 14 different regions in RX J1713.7-3946, measuring in each one the gamma-ray flux and spectral index. The technique presented in this paper can be applied to other high energy astrophysical sources, point-like or resolved. 相似文献

An analytical study is performed to examine the effects of temperature-dependent heat source on free-convective flow of non-Newtonian fluid (Walters's liquidB). The expression for the velocity field has been obtained by the Laplace transform technique. The influence of the various parameter entering into the problem is extensively discussed. 相似文献

Since more than a century astronomers measure the position angle of the major axis of the polarization ellipse starting from the North direction and increasing counter-clockwise, when looking at the source. This convention has been enforced by the IAU with a Resolution in 1973. Much later the WMAP satellite, which has observed the polarization of the cosmic microwave background, has unfortunately adopted the opposite convention: the polarization position angle is measured starting from the South and increasing clockwise, when looking at the source. This opposite convention has been followed by most cosmic microwave background polarization experiments and is causing obvious problems and misunderstandings. The attempts and prospects to enforce the official IAU convention are described. 相似文献

We observed 3EG J1234-1318 with the CANGAROO-II telescope in March, 2002. This source is a steady unidentified EGRET gamma-ray
source at high Galactic latitude which has been associated with a dynamically merging clusters of galaxies, and is therefore
a candidate TeV source. TeV gamma-ray emission is also expected as a result of large-scale cosmological structure formation.
We here report the resulting upper limit on the TeV gamma-ray emission from 3EG J1234-1318.

The expression is derived for the coronal magnetic field strength from the observations of brightness, temperature, peak frequency, spectral index, and polarization degree of solar microwave bursts. One example of solar burst on November 28, 1998 is given for the calculation of coronal magnetic field from the data of Nobeyama Radio Heliograph (NoRH). The results are comparable with the SOHO/MDI magnetogram and the calculation from the Nobeyama Radio Polarimeters (NoRP), as well as the coronal loops in SOHO/EIT and YOHKOH/SXT images. Therefore, it may be the first time that the two-dimensional diagnosis of coronal magnetic field in a microwave burst source from the radio observations has been made. 相似文献

In this paper, the Combined Operational Method developed by Busbridge (1961) in connection with the radiative transfer problems in plane-parallel atmospheres has been extended to similar problems in isotropic scattering, homogeneous spherical media. The relevant auxiliary equation has been formulated, the scattering function defined and the integro-differential equation for such function deduced. For a medium having radial distribution of source in addition to the incident flux at the outer surface, the integro-differential equations for source function and emergent intensity have been established. 相似文献
