We have conducted multi-epoch EVN observations of the 22.2 GHz water masers towards the high-mass young stellar object in AFGL 5142. With four observing epochs, spanning a time of 1 year, 12 distinct maser features have been detected and accurate values of the proper motions are derived for those persistent over three or four epochs. On the basis of their spatial distribution, the observed maser features can be divided into two groups. A model fit to the positions and velocities of the maser features of Group I, detected in the same region (within 500 mas) where the massive YSO should be located, demonstrates that these might arise on the surface of a nearly edge-on Keplerian disk, rotating around a massive young stellar object. The maser features of Group II, found at large distances from the YSO ( 1), have positions and line-of-sight velocities in agreement with the blue-shifted lobe of a large-scale molecular outflow, and might result from the interaction between the gas flowing away from the young stellar object and the ambient gas of the progenitor molecular core.  相似文献

Systematic reductions of nineteenth century observations to the system of the FK4 are discussed. Reductions made on a nightly basis are described and compared with the results obtained through the use of conventional tables. The series of observations made at the Paris Observatory from 1837 to 1881 was used to compare the two methods, and a combined system of 24 000 FK4, FK4 Sup and AGK 3R positions and proper motions provided the reference stars. The results show that for Uranus the mean error of a single observation in right ascension is ±1..33 when tables are used for the reductions, and ±1.12 when nightly reductions are made, while in declination the corresponding mean errors are ±0.88 and ±0.80. The observations of Neptune show an even greater difference between the two methods; the mean errors for the tabular and nightly reductions are ±1.57 and ±1.09 in right ascension and ±0.88 and ±0.75 in declination. Secular rates in the (0–C)'s of Uranus of –0.029/year in right ascension and ±0.030/year in declination are present when the observations are reduced with tables. These rates are reduced to –0.007/year and +0.015/year, respectively, when nightly reductions are made.Presented at the Symposium Star Catalogues, Positional Astronomy and Celestial Mechanics, held in honor of Paul Herget at the U.S. Naval Observatory, Washington, November 30, 1978.  相似文献

The Very Large Array was used to observe a multiply-impulsive solar radio burst at several wavelengths near 20 cm. The observations indicate that the impulsive emission was nearly 100% circularly polarized and originated in small regions of 10–20 in size. For one of the impulsive spikes, we find evidence of narrow-band emission that could be attributed to an electron-cyclotron maser. The radio data are also compared with soft X-ray data and interpreted in light of a model in which the coronal plasma is heated by maser burst emission.  相似文献

We present an edge-on Keplerian disk model to explain the main component of the 12.2 and 6.7 GHz methanol maser emission detected toward NGC7538-IRS1N. The brightness distribution and spectrum of the line of bright masers are successfully modeled with high amplification of background radio continuum emission along velocity coherent paths through a maser disk. The bend seen in the position–velocity diagram is a characteristic signature of differentially rotating disks. For a central mass of 30M, suggested by other observations, our model fixes the masing disk to have inner and outer radii of 270 and 750 AU.  相似文献

In studies of the environment of massive young stellar objects, recent progress in both observations and theory allows a unified treatment of data for maser and quasi-thermal lines. Interferometric maser images provide information on the distribution and kinematics of masing gas on small spatial scales. Observations of multiple masing transitions provide constraints on the physical parameters.Interferometric data on quasi-thermal molecular lines permits an investigation of the overall distribution and kinematics of the molecular gas in the vicinity of young stellar objects, including those which are deeply embedded. Using multiple transitions of different molecules, one can obtain good constraints on the physical and chemical parameters. Combining these data enables the construction of unified models, which take into account spatial scales differing by orders of magnitude.Here, we present such a combined analysis of the environment around the ultracompact HII region in W3(OH). This includes the structure of the methanol masing region, physical structure of the near vicinity of W3(OH), detection of new masers in the large-scale shock front and embedded sources in the vicinity of the TW young stellar object.  相似文献

A photometric and colorimetric analysis of a color picture of the very inner solar corona, near the South pole region, is performed. Dimensions and average electron densities of both chromospheric and very fine resolved coronal spikes are deduced. For the coronal spike a half width of 1.67 is measured, the estimate of electron density yields n e = 1010 cm–3. Some conclusions are attempted on the light of a simultaneously observed spectrum of the same region which appeared to be a disappearing coronal hole. The observations seem to support the concept of a striated corona.On leave from Institut d'Astrophysique, Paris as NRC Post-Doctoral Research Assistant.  相似文献

The size of the hard X-ray source in the Crab Nebula was observed with scintillation counters on board two balloons at a lunar occulatation on 24 January, 1975. The Gaussian width of the source is 34 (+17, –14) and the center thereof is offset from the pulsar by 6±4 at position angle 102°. The observed time profile can also be fitted to an alternative model of two line sources whose intensities are 48% at 11 and 25.5% at 7 on both sides of the pulsar.Paper presented at the COSPAR Symposium on Fast Transients in X- and Gamma-Rays, held at Varna, Bulgaria, 29–31 May, 1975.  相似文献

The synthetic Voigt profile of the following transitions (v=0,v=0), (v=0,v=1), (v=1,v=1), (v=1,v=0) have been computed for different concentrations and temperatures of CO and compaed to the measured intensities of the UV sunspot spectrum by a high resolution spectrograph. From this comparison the solar minimum temperature has been determined.  相似文献

CASPIR is a near-infrared spectrometer/imager being built for the Mount Stromlo and Siding Spring Observatories' 2.3 m telescope. The instrument is based on a SBRC 256×256 InSb detector array and uses AR-coated Sapphire, MgO, CaF2, and BaF2 optics to produce two imaging focal plane scales with 0.5/pixel and 0.25/pixel. Spectral resolving powers of 500 will be achieved through a 1×128 slit with three grisms designed for the J, H, and K bands. IJ, JH, and HK cross-dispersed échelle grisms will achieve resolving powers of 1100 through a 1×15 slit. Coronograph and imaging polarimetry modes will also be available. The various observing configurations are selected via five remotely controlled wheels. The instrument design and system architecture are discussed, and preliminary detector performance figures reported.  相似文献

The spatial distribution of granule sizes at the surface of the sun is investigated. Granules have been separated into two classes: those larger than 1.37 and those smaller, where 1.37 is the critical scale defined by Roudier and Muller (1986). It is found that granules are not distributed at random: large granules appear to be clustered, forming a cellular pattern with a characteristic scale of 7; small granules form a similar and complementary pattern. These patterns are probably related to the mesogranulation.  相似文献

From time series of high resolution photographs, morphological properties of the photospheric facular granules were derived. The facular granules are cells of the common granular pattern, brighter than the normal granules when seen between cos = 0.6 and the limb. Their apparent diameter, which decreases towards the limb, is smaller than that of the normal granules: 0.65 and 1.25 respectively at cos = 0.55; their lifetime is 25 min but their bright stage lifetime is only 15 min; they are visible closer to the limb than the normal granules: 1.2 compared to 2–5; the brightening of the facular granules occurs at a faster rate than their fading. From the great similitude of both morphological properties and temperature models of facular and normal granules, it appears possible that the photospheric facular granules are convective cells modified by the presence of a magnetic field of some hundreds Gauss.  相似文献

Taking advantage of the JPL Long Ephemeris DE406 and of the semi-analytical solution for the planetary motions VSOP87, we make an approximation of the differences JPL–VSOP. The form of the approximation (arguments and Poisson expansions) is analogous to the time series of the theory. We improve the planetary solution VSOP87 in two directions: a better fit of the integration constants via the highly precise observations used in DE406 and an extension of the length of validity covering the 6000 years of the source ephemeris. Over an interval of 2000 years, we achieve on the mean longitudes (test variables) a precision better than 0.005 for inner planets and 0.015 for outer ones. On the longest time interval covering 6000 years the precision is better than 0.03 for inner planets and 1.2 for outer ones.  相似文献

A prime objective of this experiment was to determine whether type I or IV sources at 333 MHz contain features of small (arc sec) scale. With the VLA, our resolution was better than 4. However, we never observed any structure of size smaller than about 30, with the typical source sizes being between about 40 and 90.Many observations were simultaneous with the Trieste Astronomical Observatory records at 327 MHz. The observations were made on two days in November 1988. On 8 November the observations were of a type I storm about two hours after a major flare. On 14 November they were mostly of the main phase of a type IV event, including pulsations of a kind rarely seen, strongly circularly polarized, and having a well-defined period of about 12 s. The size of the pulsating source was about 40 by 60, and the brightness temperature was about 109 K. We compare these pulsations with those observed earlier.  相似文献

Tracing results for two designs based on the Offner reimager are given: a practical 256×256 NICMOS-3 IR/CCD I-K camera designed for use on a f/13.5 1-m telescope yielding a 154×154 field, and a hypothetical 1024×1024 pixel nextgeneration IR camera for a f/7.5 2.5-m telescope yielding a 244×244 field. Both designs produce near-diffration limited results.  相似文献

Continuum brightness and Doppler velocity fluctuations in the lines 6301.5 and 6302.5 Å of Fei, measured in two selected spectrograms, are analysed by standard statistical (power- and coherence spectrum) methods. It is shown qualitatively that the oscillatory component of the velocity fluctuations (at spatial wavelengths > 4) decreases, while the supposedly granular component (at spatial wavelengths < 4) as well as the coherence between brightness and velocity fluctuations increases with optical depth.The spatial resolution of the spectrograms is estimated by comparing the observed power spectrum of brightness fluctuations with spectra found in the literature, assuming the combined instrumental and seeing spread function to be Gaussian. The resolution thus determined is = 1.24 ± 0.07. If the measured values are corrected accordingly, we obtain a true brightness rms of 10 to 14%, depending upon the shape of the power spectrum chosen for comparison, and a velocity rms at continuum optical depth of 1.3 km/sec. It is shown, however, that using the same correction function for the velocity power spectrum as for the brightness possibly gives rise to misestimating the velocity rms.Mitteilungen aus dem Fraunhofer Institut Nr. 100.  相似文献

Using optically identical telescopes at different sites, we have measured the solar diameter with a drift-scan technique. In order to investigate the cause of the observed fluctuations, we not only compare observations made simultaneously by different observers at the same telescope, but also observations made simultaneously at two different sites. Our main results are: (a) The mean error of a single drift time measurement is ±0.08s(or ± 1.1) at Izaña and ±0.11 s (or ± 1.7) at Locarno; this closely corresponds to the angular resolution at those two sites under normal seeing conditions, (b) We find no correlation between observations at different sites; a significant correlation exists, however, between observations made simultaneously by different observers at the same site: This indicates that most of the observed fluctuations are due to atmospheric effects (image motion) rather than personality effects, (c) The mean solar semi-diameter derived from a total of 1122 observations made in 1990 (472 at Izaña, 650 at Locarno) is R = (960.56 ± 0.03) (Izaña: 960.51, Locarno: 960.59); this may be compared with R = (960.32 ± 0.02) which is obtained from a re-analysis of 1773 observations made in 1981 (Izaña: 960.16, Locarno: 960.38). Although a small residual increase of the solar diameter during the last ten years seems to be indicated, we conclude that most - if not all - of the observed variations are due to variable seeing conditions, and that there is still no conclusive evidence for a genuine solar variation with amplitudes in excess of about ±0.3.  相似文献

Correlations between continuum intensity, velocity, and equivalent widths of two Mn i lines as observed with two different entrance apertures tend to deteriorate with improvement in spatial resolution. The KPNO multichannel magnetograph was used to make area scans at the center of the disk with entrance apertures 3.5×2.5 arc and 1×1 arc. A coherence analysis shows that this effect is caused by marked differences of fluctuations in temperature and temperature gradients as well as in the velocity structure of photospheric elements of various sizes.  相似文献

We present some results of new calculations ofD(t)-the second derivative of the Moon's elongation as a function of time. The paper contains an explanation of the well-known R. Newton's effecthe rapid decline inD(t) from about 700 yr to about 1300 yr. The new graph ofD is based on the revised dates of the ancient eclipses and has a qualitatively different character; in particular, the decline inD(t) vanishes completely andD(t) oscillates at a roughly constant value, which coincides with the modern one. This fact agrees with the independent chronological results in the author's [7] paper.  相似文献

Resumé La construction de théories planétaires a été entreprise au Bureau des Longitudes pour l'ensemble du système solaire. Il s'agit de théories semi-analytiques à variations séculaires ce qui signifie que les termes à longues périodes (périodes des périhélies et des noeuds comprises entre 50 000 ans et 2 000 000 d'années) ont été développés par rapport au temps. Ce sont donc des théories du type de celles de Le Verrier ou de Newcomb.Les théories de Le Verrier et de Newcomb ont une précision interne d'environ 0,1 pour les planètes inférieures. La théorie de Le Verrier-Gaillot a une précision interne de quelques secondes pour les grosses planètes. Mais les constantes d'intégration de, ces théories, la dégradation des éléments moyens due à l'imprécision des termes séculaires calculés font que la précision réelle est comprise entre quelques 0,1 et plusieurs secondes. La précision de la théorie du soleil de Newcomb, par exemple, est de l'ordre de 0,8.Les objectifs que nous nous sommes fixés sont d'atteindre en précision; pour les planètes inférieures 0,001 sur plusieurs siècles; pour les grosses planètes 0,01 sur un siècle, 0,1 sur 1000 ans.Cela implique de déterminer les perturbations au moins jusqu'a l'ordre 3 des masses pour les planètes inférieures et jusqu'à l'ordre 6 pour les grosses planètes.
Theory of the inner planets
In the contruction of planetary theories for the whole of the solar system undertaken at the Bureau des Longitudes, the aim is to obtain the precision of: for the inner planets 0.001 over several centuries; for the outer planets 0.01 over one century, 0.1 over 1000 years. To get these precisions one must compute the perturbations at least to the 3rd order of the masses for the inner planets and to the 6th order of the masses for the outer planets.We have used an iterative method which has given the perturbations up to the 6th order of the masses for the outer planets and a method working order after order with respect to the masses. Through the latter, we have built the perturbations up to the 3rd order with respect to the masses for all the planets.In the mean longitudes the precision now obtained is of 0.0005 for Mercury, 0.0030 for Venus and the Earth and 0.0047 for Mars.For Mercury, the obtained precision is about 130 meters. One has therefore to introduce besides the advance of the perihelium due to relativity, the periodic relativistic corrections, whose amplitude is over 3000 meters for that planet.We have completed our theory of the Earth-Moon barycenter by the relativistic effects, as well as by the perturbations due to the Moon. As a whole, our solution is about 100 times better than that of Newcomb. Our solution for the variablesq andp of the Earth shows that the equinox is moved by a periodic motion of 0.04 amplitude and with a period of 883 year-a thing not considered generally.the precision of our solution for the mean longitude of Mars is 0.0047, which means a real progress over the theory of Clemence. We have indeed noticed many arguments missing in that theory we last mentioned. For the years to come we intend to replace to theories of Le Verrier by these solutions in the ephemerides published by the Bureau des Longitudes. Beforehand we are going to improve the constants of integration by a comparison to numerical integrations or directly to observation.

The solar seeing image motion has been monitored electronically and absolutely with a 25 cm telescope at three sites along the ridge at the southern end of the Magdalena Mountains west of Socorro, New Mexico. The uncorrelated component of the variations of the optical flux from two points at opposite limbs of the solar disk was continually monitored in 3 frequencies centred at 0.3, 3 and 30 Hz. The frequency band of maximum signal centred at 3 Hz showed the average absolute value of image motion to be somewhat less than 2 although wide variations from 20 to an extraordinarily quiet day of less than the measurement limit of 1/2 were observed. The observer estimates of combined blurring and image motion were well correlated with electronically measured image motion, but the observer estimates gave a larger value × 2 presumable because the electronic measurement gave only the uncorrelated motion of opposite limbs. Approximately 30% of the total solar time would allow spatial position measurements of solar features to a precision 2 and, from the visual estimates, blurring limited measurements to a precision 4.  相似文献
