The radio luminosities of pulsars are given as functions of their period and the time variation of the period. The parameters
of that dependence are calculated and independent distances are determined for pulsars. The average electron densities toward
the pulsars are determined from the known dispersion measures. The results obtained are used to study the large-scale electron
density distribution in the Galaxy. The distribution maximum lies in the vicinity of the Sagittarius spiral arm. The electron
density falls off exponentially in the regions between spiral arms.

Analytic expressions are derived for the perturbation of planetary orbits due to a thick constant density asteroid belt. The derivations include extensions and adaptations of Plakhov's analytic expressions for the perturbations in five of the orbital elements for closed orbits around Saturn's rings. The equations of Plakhov are modified to include the effect of ring thickness and additional equations are derived for the perturbations in the sixth orbital element, the mean anomaly. The gravitational potential and orbital perturbations are derived for the asteroid belt with and without thickness, and for a hoop approximation to the belt. The procedures are also applicable to Saturn's rings and the newly discovered rings of Uranus.The effects of the asteroid belt thickness on the gravitational potential coefficients and the orbital motions are demonstrated. Comparisons between the Mars orbital perturbations obtained using the analytic expressions and those obtained using numerical integration are discussed. The effects of the asteroid belt on the Earth based ranging to Mars are also demonstrated. 相似文献

It is shown that it is possible to make a change of variables in a Lagrangian in such a way that the number of variables is increased. The Euler-Lagrange equations in the redundant variables are obtained in the standard way (without the use of Lagrange Multipliers!). These equations are not independent but they are all valid and consistent. In some cases they are simpler than if the minimum number of variables are used. The redundant variables are supposed to be related to each other by several constraints (not necessarily holonomic), but these constraints are not used in the derivation of the equations of motion. The method is illustrated with the well known Kustaanheimo-Stiefel Regularization. Some interesting applications to perturbation theory are also described.The present research was carried out partially at the University of California and partially at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory under contract NAS7-100 with NASA.Presently Visiting Associate Professor at the University of Texas. 相似文献

The flow of the current along the magnetic field lines in the thin plasma directed opposite to the electric field is considered. The particles moving to the equatorial plane are supposed to have mirror points above the region of absorption (the ionosphere) and the particles moving to the ionosphere are supposed to have mirror points below the region of absorption. The current, therefore, flows. The functions of the distribution of the electrons and ions are considered to be mono-energetic. The energies of the electrons and the ions and their densities on the boundary of absorption are estimated for the potential difference and for the current density which are typical for the auroral field lines. 相似文献

We use the random forest to regress the surface effective temperatures of stars in APOGEE from SDSS DR16 and LAMOST DR6. When the NUV-u, u-g, g-r, r-i, i-J, J-H, H-K, K-WISE_4_5 magnitudes are used as machine learning features, the coefficient of determination of regression are 94.91% in APOGEE and 90.46% in LAMOST. The standard deviation of the prediction and pipeline temperatures are 93.89K in APOGEE and 113.10K in LAMOST. When the NUV-J, J-H, H-K, K-WISE_4_5 magnitudes are used as features, the coefficient of determination of regression are 94.37% in APOGEE and 88.89% in LAMOST. The standard deviation is 96.59K in APOGEE and 119.92K in LAMOST. The J-H magnitudes are the most important feature to predict the effective temperatures, and the NUV-J magnitudes are the second important feature. The NUV-J, J-H, H-K, K-WISE_4_5 magnitudes are from the all-sky survey and can be employed widely to regress the effective temperatures of stars. 相似文献

The results of reflectivity measurements in the vacuum ultraviolet wavelength region (VUV) on technical surfaces are described which are used in the Wolter I-telescope on board the German X-ray astronomy satellite ROSAT.The materials investigated are the special iron-nickel alloy Invar and a carbon fibre compound (CFK).The centre connecting flange for the parabolic and hyperbolic mirror sections of the telescope is made of Invar. CFK is used for the thermal baffle in front of the telescope. It had to be checked whether the structure of the centre flange and the thermal baffle sufficiently suppress scattered ultraviolet radiation in order to avoid a substantial background level in the detectors which are located in the focal plane of the telescope. The detectors consist of two positional sensitive proportional counters (PSPC) with a spatial resolution of 0.5 arc min and an image converter with a resolution of a few arc sec. The detectors are mounted on a carrousel platform and are intended to be positioned alternatively in the focal plane. 相似文献

The interaction of a conducting body moving through the ionosphere with the surrounding plasma is treated numerically. The Poisson and Vlasov equations are solved using computer techniques to give information about the redistribution of charged particles in the wake behind the body and the perturbation of the electric potential sheaths around the body. Three cases of interest are studied: body size less than, equal to, and greater than the Debye length in the surrounding plasma. A range of body potentials and ion Mach numbers are considered which are typical of conditions found in the ionosphere. Wake features, such as ion-free wake lengths and angles of propagation of disturbances in the wakes, are investigated for these conditions. Physical pictures of the mechanisms of wake formation behind a plate and a disc are built up for the three classes of body size, and differences due to geometry or size are explained. The smaller bodies are comparable in size to instrument booms, diagnostic probes, antennae, etc. and the larger bodies approach the dimensions of ionospheric satellites and space probes. 相似文献

The magnetic field variations observed at Ahmedabad during the magnetic storm of August 4 to 6, 1972 are subjected to power Spectrum Analysis. The storm is divided in five parts depending upon its morphology and phase. Prominent peaks are observed in the range of 60–300 sec periods. The prominent periods and their respective power are studied in relation to the progress and phase of the storm. These are then related to the condition of the magnetosphere and the interplanetary medium observed at the time of the storm. 相似文献

Machine-learning algorithms are applied to explore the relation between significant flares and their associated CMEs. The
NGDC flares catalogue and the SOHO/LASCO CME catalogue are processed to associate X and M-class flares with CMEs based on
timing information. Automated systems are created to process and associate years of flare and CME data, which are later arranged
in numerical-training vectors and fed to machine-learning algorithms to extract the embedded knowledge and provide learning
rules that can be used for the automated prediction of CMEs. Properties representing the intensity, flare duration, and duration
of decline and duration of growth are extracted from all the associated (A) and not-associated (NA) flares and converted to
a numerical format that is suitable for machine-learning use. The machine-learning algorithms Cascade Correlation Neural Networks
(CCNN) and Support Vector Machines (SVM) are used and compared in our work. The machine-learning systems predict, from the
input of a flare’s properties, if the flare is likely to initiate a CME. Intensive experiments using Jack-knife techniques
are carried out and the relationships between flare properties and CMEs are investigated using the results. The predictive
performance of SVM and CCNN is analysed and recommendations for enhancing the performance are provided. 相似文献

The results of a diffusive radiation transport experiment in a simple geometry are presented. The experiment depends primarily
on two variables, the target density and the temperature drive, which are characterized well. The experiment is designed to
verify and validate radiation transport in codes. The codes can then be used to model astrophysical systems. The results of
the experiments are found to be in good agreement with simulation results. 相似文献

Photoelectric observations of asteroid 1220 Crocus (an Eos family member) show evidence for two distinct periods in its light variation: 30.7 days and 7.90 hr. The lightcurve amplitudes are 0.87 and 0.15 mag, respectively. The shorter period variation appears to be modulated over the longer period. Two periods are possible for a rigid body only if it is in a state of precession. The observations are shown to be compatible with a body in a forced precession state. This result leads us to hypothesize the existence of a satellite of Crocus as the source of the external torque. Calculations are presented which show that there are in fact dynamically possible “binary asteroid” solutions consistent with the observations. More photoelectric and perhaps direct (space telescope) observations are needed to resolve the true nature of this asteroid. 相似文献

Acoustic solitons are investigated in electron-positron plasmas containing equal hot and cool components of both species. The hot components are isothermal Boltzmann distributed, the cool constituents are modelled by adiabatic fluids. The equations are integrated exactly in terms of a Sagdeev potential. Solitons are shown to be possible, but no double layers, due to the symmetry in the model. Bearing in mind the constraints imposed by the Boltzmann assumption, small amplitude solitons only are found. Such findings are relevant for different kinds of astrophysical plasmas, as well as for other types of similar acoustic solitons. 相似文献

The Magnetic Plage Strength Index(MPSI) and the Mount Wilson Sunspot Index(MWSI), which have been measured at Mount Wilson Observatory(MWO) since the 1970 s and which indicate weak and strong magnetic field activity on the solar full disk, respectively, are used to systematically investigate midterm periodicities in the solar full-disk magnetic fields. Multitudinous mid-term periodicities are detected in MPSI and MWSI on timescales of 0.3 to 4.5 yr, and these periodicities are found to fluctuate around several typical periodicities within a small amplitude in different solar cycles or phases. The periodicity of 3.44 yr is found in MPSI, and the periodicities of 3.85 and 3.00 yr are detected in MWSI. Our analysis indicates that they reflect the true oscillating signals of solar magnetic field activity. The typical periodicities are 2.8,2.3 and 1.8 yr in MPSI and MWSI, and possible mechanisms for these periodicities are discussed. A 1.3 yr periodicity is only detected in MPSI, and should be related to meridional flows on the solar surface. The typical annual periodicity of MPSI and MWSI is 1.07 yr, which is not derived from the annual variation of Earth's heliolatitude. Several periodicities shorter than 1 yr found in MPSI and MWSI are considered to be Rieger-type periodicities. 相似文献

Abstract— The photometric properties of the average lunar surface are characterized using Hapke's equations and whole disk observations ranging from 0.36 to 1.06 μm. Synthetic spectra across a crater topographic profile are created using the modeling results. The synthetic spectra are examined for spectral variations created by changes in lighting conditions induced by the topography. Changes above the modeling uncertainties are seen in both spectral slope and band depths, though the most pronounced change is in band depth. The data have insufficient spectral resolution to determine if there are any changes in band center due to photometric effects. No additional absorption features are introduced by the photometry. These results have serious implications on the interpretation of spectral observations in terms of abundance estimates and alteration processes as a function of location and association with geologic features. 相似文献

The possibility of impacts between comets belonging to the Jupiter Family and other small bodies orbiting in the main asteroid belt, and the consequences in relation to cometary activity are discussed. The probability of such events and the jumps in cometary brightness caused by impacts are examined. The results are compared with the results of the Deep Impact mission to Comet 9P/Tempel 1. The main conclusion of this paper is in agreement with previous findings, namely that an impact mechanism cannot be the main cause of the outburst activity of comets. 相似文献

The cloudiness is one of the most important factors which affect the quality of an astronomical site, the monitoring and processing of the night- time cloudiness are especially important. The ground-based cloudiness camera is adopted to carry out the monitoring of the all-sky cloudiness, the images taken need to be processed by means of an effective method so as to quantize the cloudiness. The night-time cloudiness images are seriously affected by the moon- light, and therefore, the night-time cloudiness images are processed by dividing them into the moonlight and moonless two sorts. In the light of the condition of moonless night, the processing method of night-time cloudiness is given. The positioning and photometry of the bright stars in the image are conducted to determine their magnitude differences. By referring to the magnitude differences of the bright stars in the clear-night image, the probability of the bright stars of which the magnitude differences are lower than the threshold value are regarded as the probability standard of clear nights. Three sorts of images are selected to test the method. The cloudiness is determined, and the effect of the threshold condition on the result is analyzed. Finally, the applicable range and uncertainty of the method are discussed. 相似文献

The RXTE observations of Scorpius X-1 in 1996–1999 are presented. The properties of its quasi-periodic X-ray oscillations are studied in detail. The results obtained are used for analysis in terms of the transition-layer model (TLM) and the relativistic-precession model (RPM) for a slowly rotating neutron star. Theoretical predictions of the two models are compared and their self-consistency is verified. The tilt of the magnetosphere to the accretion-disk plane, the neutron-star mass, and its angular momentum are determined in terms of the models. 相似文献
