Surface photometry of the UV continuum galaxy NGC 838 has been carried out in theB, V system using photographic plates obtained with the 74 Kottamia telescope, Egypt. Isophotes, luminosity profiles, integrated photographic magnitudes, effective diameters and other photometric parameters are derived.The photoelectrically calibrated total apparent magnitudes areB T =13.57 with maximum diameters 1.57×1.34 (at threshold m =27.7 mag.//) andV T =12.91 with maximum diameters 1.54×1.32 (at threshold m =27.7 mag./). The integrated colour index(B–V) T =0.66 and the effective surface brightness e (B=19.0 mag./) and e (V=19.7 mag./. The major axis is at position angle =85°±1°.The nucleus of NGC 838 is quite blue (integrated colour(B–V)=0.41 forr *<0.1) compared to normal galaxies while the colour becomes redder from the nucleus outwards. The UV excess, H emission and radio continuum emission previously observed from this galaxy by other investigators may be attributed to a recent burst of star formation in the nucleus of the galaxy of duration slightly greater than 2×107 yr.  相似文献

Time resolved spectroscopy of the dwarf nova IP Pegasi in the range 7670–8320Å shows absorption lines originating from the cool secondary. A radial velocity curve for this component has been derived by cross-correlation with a normal M star. The curve has semi-amplitude K2=288.3±4 km s–1, and is slightly distorted. This distortion is equivalent to an orbit with an apparent eccentricity of 0.075±0.024. The mass function of the primary is 0.394±0.016M. From this we derive constraints on the component masses of 0.621<1.14M and 0.172<0.71M. The red star has a radius in the range 0.322<0.51R and is probably on the main sequence.Paper presented at the IAU Colloquium No. 93 on Cataclysmic Variables.

Low-level decimetric (1.6 GHz) solar burst activity   总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6  
Observations of solar bursts at 1.6 GHz were carried out in the month of July 1985 for about two weeks. Five intervals of solar burst activity, each one lasting for a couple of minutes, were observed. Predominantly, two classes of fast bursts were observed: viz: spike and blips. However, some of these bursts were two orders of magnitude less intense than those reported earlier.Low-level blips have typical duration 350 ms, excitation time 200 ± 25 ms, decay time 130 ± 25 ms and a low degree of circular polarization of about 15%. Detailed investigations of decay times of the blips have been carried out in terms of collisional damping and Landau damping. Observed decay times of the blips seem to favour the hypothesis of collisional damping. This investigation suggests that blips probably originate at second harmonic by beam plasma interaction as that of metric type III bursts. Also, low-level ms-spikes with the half power duration in the range of 5 to 20 ms suggest that source sizes be smaller than 50 km if the process of emission is electron-cyclotron maser.Proceedings of the Second CESRA Workshop on Particle Acceleration and Trapping in Solar Flares, held at Aubigny-sur-Nère (France), 23–26 June, 1986.  相似文献

From a new infrared photometry of the globular cluster M10 its interstellar extinction and distance modulus are discussed. This is done by comparison with the well-studied clusters M3, M13, and M92. Final values ofE(B-V)=0.17±0.05 and (M v-V)=14.0±0.3 are proposed. The dependence on metallicity of these values is briefly discussed.Paper presented at the 11th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain  相似文献

Ultraviolet spectra of CMi and Cen A taken with moderate spectral resolution (approx. 1.8 Å) are used to analyse whether a determination of stellar chemical abundances of Fe and Cr and of the photospheric parameters is possible. For CMi, for which good spectral data are available, we findT eff=7660±110 K; logg eff=3.05±0.1. Further, log(Fe)=–0.06±0.09; log (Cr)=–0.01±0.09 with regard to standard (solar) abundances. For Cen A the resulting data — particularly the photospheric ones — are less certain, but it seems that the Fe abundance may be smaller than the standard value.  相似文献

Corrections to Newcomb's lunisolar precession and to motion of the equinox are evaluated from proper motions of 77 Cepheids, employing recently determined values of their distances. Results are diverse, depending on the weighting method. If the effect of the cosmic dispersion is neglected and 0 is imposed to be 25 km/s/kpc, thenp 1=1.1±0.2 and +e = 1.0 ± 0.1 per century in the FK4 system.Presented at IAU Colloquium No. 9, The IAU System of Astronomical Constants, Heidelberg, Germany, August 12–14, 1970.  相似文献

We present the first observations of the AM Her type object EF Eri where both the polarization and the photometric data are recorded simultaneously in five color bands (UBVRI). The position angle rotates strongly (30°) vs. wavelength from U to I, probably due to Faraday rotation or due to fact that the polarized radiation seen in the different wavelength bands comes from different parts of the accretion region. The phase dependence of the position angle requires field and accretion geometry more complicated than a simple centered dipole and a second emitting region producing weaker intermediate pulses in the infrared seems to be present. We derive the value of the inclination of the system i=55°±5°, the colatitude of the active pole 1,= 38° ±5° and the second emitting region = 115° ± 5°, both of which are nearly at the same longitude facing the main accretion stream.Based on observations made at the European Southern Observatory, La Silla, Chile.Paper presented at the IAU Colloquium No. 93 on Cataclysmic Variables.

High resolution spectra of six photospheric Eu ii lines have been studied using the method of spectrum synthesizing. The isotope ratio is found to be Eu153/Eu151 = (48 ± 6)/(52 6) and the solar abundance of europium equals log Eu = 0.7 ± 0.2 in the log H = 12.00 scale.  相似文献

Multiyear high precision measurements of the longitudinal component of the magnetic field (Be) of four supergiants are reported: Aqr (G0 Ib), Aqr (G2 Ib), Gem (G8 Ib), and Peg (K2 Ib). The best measurement accuracy, =0.8 G, was achieved for Peg. A Monte Carlo method was used to test the reliability of the derived measurement errors. The differences between the observational errors and the calculated Monte Carlo errors were 3.2%. For Aqr and Aqr no statistically significant value of the magnetic field was recorded when averaged over a night. For eGem the following overnight average values of the magnetic field were recorded on five nights: 11.1±2.7 G, 9.8±2.5 G, –10.5±3.0 G, 38.1±7.4 G, and 5.3±1.5 G. For Peg the magnetic field recorded over two nights was –5.3±0.9 G and – 2.7±0.8 G.Translated from Astrofizika, Vol. 48, No. 1, pp. 15–28 (February 2005).  相似文献

A brief quantitative review of the determination of the chemical composition of the Sun and stars is given. The method of estimation of the total amount of hydrogen atoms in a prominence is considered.The values of relative abundances of some infrequent elements in the solar atmosphere are refined using metal emission lines in the spectrum of a quiescent prominence. The most probable values of relative abundances for itrium Y1×10–9, zirconium Zr2×10–9, and scandium Sc3.8×10–9 are derived.  相似文献

On the basis of empirical (D)-dependency at the frequency of 5 GHz constructed using 15 planetary nebulae with the independently measured distances (10–171×10–20 W m–2 Hz–1 ster–1), we evaluated distances of 335 objects. Independent evidence of the correctness of the accepted scale are given. Then(D)-dependency is constructed and it is shown that atD<0.08 pc the mean electron density is higher than the one determined by the Seaton method. We showed that the filling factor diminishes with the increase of the PN diameter (1 atD0.08 pc and 0.2 atD0.4 pc). the ionized mass of 33 PNs is determined. With the diameter increase the ionized mass grows and atD0.4 pc reaches the valueM0.07M . We used the new distance scale when investigating the space distribution of PNs. The mean scale height =130±15 pc and the mean gradient of the change of surface densitym=0.37, which allowed us to estimate the total number of nebulae in the GalaxyN4×104. We divided the PNs according to their velocities (withV LSR>35 km s–1 andV LSR<35 km s–1) and permitted us to confirm that the PN belong to different sub-systems of the Galaxy. The estimated local formation rate of PNs [=(4.6±2.2)×10–12 pc–3 yr–1] is a little higher than the one of the white dwarfs. That can be explained by a large number of PNs having binary cores, which used in our sample. The statistical estimation of PN expansion velocity showed thatV ex increases from 5–7 km s–1 (atD0.03 pc) to 40–50 km s–1 (atD0.8 pc).  相似文献

The problem of stability of an unbounded anisotropic plasma characterized by different temperatures along and transverse to the magnetic field is investigated for an arbitrary direction of propagation. Chewet al (1956) equations modified to incorporate self-gravitation, finite ion Larmor radius (FLR) and Hall current are used. Uniform rotation (of an order of interest in astrophysics) is also considered. Extensive numerical treatment of the dispersion relation leads to several interesting results.Inclusion of FLR, or Hall current or both together introduces pulsational instability for prepagation parallel to the magnetic field. The aperiodic growth rate of the mirror instability is only slightly altered due to FLR or Hall current effects. In the absence of rotation, self-gravitation, FLR and Hall current, the growth rate decreases for the mirror region as the direction of propagation approaches the field direction, while the fire hose instability persists for arbitrary propagation, even in the limiting case (the mirror limit) where the propagation is nearly transverse to the magnetic field. Uniform rotation altogether stabilizes the fire hose instability for a sufficiently strong pressure (or temperature) anisotropy. Pulsational instability is introduced when both ratation and self-gravitation effects are present. Either FLR or Hall current depresses the growth rate of the fire hose instability and introduces pulsational instability for the general case of arbitrary propagation. When FLR and Hall current effects are present simultaneously, the interaction terms due to these effects may be strongly destabilizing in nature for arbitrary propagation.  相似文献

We have studied the temporal variations in the north–south asymmetries of the differential rotation parameters A, B, and the mean rotation rate , by determining their values from Greenwich data for sunspot groups (1879–1976) in the northern and southern hemispheres, during moving time intervals of lengths 3 yr and 5 yr, successively displaced by 1 yr. The variation in the north–south asymmetry ( ) of is similar to the variation in the asymmetry (B ) of B but with opposite sign. These variations of and B may represent components of an anti-symmetric torsional oscillation which are in opposite phase with each other.The FFT and MEM analyses of the temporal variations of B , , and the north–south asymmetry (A ) of A, show existence of significant periodicities: 45.5 ± 11.5 yr,21.3 ± 4.5 yr, 13.3 ± 1.5 yr, and 10.5 ± 0.5 yr. These analyses also show a few other possible periodicities in A , B , and . All these periodicities are also seen in the north–south asymmetry of sunspot activity (with similar relative magnitudes). The 22-yr periodicity was seen in even-parity modes of magnetic field inferred from sunspot data.  相似文献

Selected orbits of asteroids close to the 3/2 and 4/3 resonances in the outer belt are studied by extended numerical integrations of the four-body problem Sun-Jupiter-Saturn-asteroid. Jupiter's variable eccentricity causes strong or dominant effects in the asteroidal eccentricity, rate of perihelion, and critical argument. However, a suitable transformation removes most of these effects by the transition to respective new quantities. Cases of circulation can change to permanent libration in the new critical argument. This happens in the case of (1256) Normannia, one of the two objects found to be circulating near the 3/2 resonance in former work. The other object, (334) Chicago, remains a case of circulation and shows significant deviations from quasi-periodic motion, contrary to all the other studied Hildas (3/2 cases) and to (279) Thule (4/3). Temporary libration with respect to a resonance of high order is visible in the long-period evolution of Chicago's orbit. There are cases of some analogy further inward in the belt: (903) Nealley changes to permanent libration at the 2/1 resonance by the use of the new critical argument, and (522) Helga's orbit shows a non-quasi-periodic behaviour.  相似文献

Empirical period-luminosity-colour (P-L-C) relations are obtained for the four lowest modes corresponding to radial pulsations. Agreement with predicted values indicates that, in general, both Strömgren photometric calibration and pulsation theory work well for these stars.Paper presented at the 11 th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.  相似文献

By modifying the online software of the Westerbork Synthesis Radio Telescope it is possible to sample the radio emission from a field containing a pulsar synchronously with the pulsed signal. Recording the emission from eight separate temporal windows, we can simultaneously observe both the on-pulse and off-pulse signals. We are using this technique for three different kinds of pulsar investigation: (a) to check and improve the positions of some pulsars; (b) to look for unpulsed components; and (c) to search for weak extended emission around pulsars. Observations have been carried out at 6, 21, 49, and 92 cm. Examples of results from all three types of investigation are given.Paper presented at the 11th European Regional Astronomical Meetings of the IAU on New Windows to the Universe, held 3–8 July, 1989, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain.  相似文献

We present results of new vertical structure computations for cool, convective accretion disks. The influence of the uncertainty in the low temperature opacities on the cool branch of the viscosity-surface density relation is investigated. We discuss how the shape of this relation allows a prediction of temperatures in the accretion disk during the onset of an outburst and we compare this with observations for VW Hydri by Hassall (1984).Paper presented at the IAU Colloquium No. 93 on Cataclysmic Variables.
