The investigation of plasma tails of comets is an important part of comet research. Different classifications of plasma tails of comets are proposed. Plasma acceleration in the tails is investigated in sufficient detail. Several cometary forms are explained. Plasma tails of Mars and Venus were observed during the first studies of these planets. They are associated with the capture of ionized atoms and exosphere molecules by the solar wind magnetized plasma flow. Distinct plasma tails of Mars and Venus are caused by the mass loading of the solar wind with heavy ions. It was shown that the transverse dimension of the tails of Mars, Venus, and comets can be quite accurately determined by production rate of the obstacle to the solar wind flow. While plasma tails of Mars and Venus are investigated by in situ measurements from spacecraft, observations of comet tails from the Earth make it possible to see the entire object under study and to monitor changes in its structure. A certain similarity of cometary and planetary tails can be explained by the nonmagnetic nature of both types of bodies. Thus, it is reasonable to suppose that investigations of plasma tails of comets can supplement the information obtained by in situ methods of the study of the planets. In this paper, plasma tails of comets, presumably analogous to the plasma tails of Mars and Venus, have been identified on modern photographs of comets (more than 1500 photographs viewed). Only quasi-steady laminar tails are considered. They are divided into two types: double structures and outflows. The paper attempts to define the 3D structure of double structures and to determine certain characteristics of outflows. 相似文献

The evolution of the galaxy mass function MF (and luminosity function LF) depending on merging of galaxies is discussed. The
richness and masses of most massive (and most luminous) galaxies of a cluster are chosen as a characteristic of the bright
edge of LF. Mergers are simulated by a Monte-Carlo method. The probability of merging depends on the masses of galaxies. The
ratio of the current number of galaxies to the initial one plays the role of the time scale. Transformation to real time and
redshift is realized with help of the Smoluchowsky kinetic equation (SE) solution, describing the merging process and making
possible to find the dependence of the galaxy number on time. The dependencies of richness, masses and magnitude differences
of most massive and brightest galaxies of a cluster on redshift have been obtained. Creation of cD-galaxy has been retraced
on small redshifts. The masses of the second and less massive cluster galaxies grow, but after the creation of the cD-galaxy
they begin to decrease. Comparison of obtained results with data of the catalogues is provided. Correspondence in mentioned
dependencies is observed.

Ephemerides of planetary satellites are needed to address many problems. These ephemerides are used for subsequent observations. A comparison of the available ephemerides with new observations allows the accuracy of the former to be assessed. However, the precision of the ephemerides must be known a priori when solving the tasks. In this paper we formulate and solve the problem of estimating the precision of the ephemerides of outer planetary satellites derived from observations when applied up to the future moments.The methods of assessing the precision of ephemerides involve producing a set of samples of the same ephemeris inferred from observations with different samples of Monte Carlo generated random errors (RO) superimposed onto it. The statistical parameters of simulated observational errors are based on the results of the reduction of real satellite observations. We compute the deviations of the samples of the ephemeris from the standard ephemeris inferred from real observations and adopt the root-mean-square deviation of the apparent coordinates as the precision of the ephemeris. We also use alternative methods: one based on the matrix of covariances of parameter errors (RP), and another one based on bootstrap samples of observations (BS).We use three methods (RO, RP, and BS) to estimate the precision of the ephemerides of all the 107 outer planetary satellites over the 2010-2020 time interval. The precision of the ephemerides of different satellites varies from 0.05 to 4.0 arcsec. For a number of satellites new observations are of vital importance for maintaining the precision of the ephemerides at a level that would allow identification of satellites during the reduction of observations. For some satellites the precision of their ephemerides is of the order of the sizes of their orbits and such satellites can be considered to have been lost. We show that the method of bootstrap samples (BS) can give doubtful results in the cases where there are few observations, which covered a time interval that is shorter than the orbital period of the satellite.Our results suggest obtaining more precise ephemeris making new observations at the times of maximum estimated errors of the ephemeris.All the inferred estimates of the precision of ephemerides are available from the MULTI-SAT ephemeris server: www.imcce.fr/sat (IMCCE), www.sai.msu.ru/neb/nss/index.htm (SAI). 相似文献

In the traditional axisymmetric models of the 11-year solar cycle, oscillations of the magnetic fields appear in the background of nonoscillating (over time scale considered) turbulent velocity fields and differential rotation. In this paper, an alternative approach is developed: The excitation of magnetic oscillations with the 22-year period is the consequence of hydrodynamic oscillations with the 11-year period. In the excitation of hydrodynamic oscillations, two processes taking place in high latitudes near the interface between the convective and radiative zones play a key role. One is forcing of the westerly zonal flow, the conditions for which are due to deformation of the interfacial surface. The other process is the excitation of a shear instability of zonal flow as a consequence of a strong radial gradient of angular velocity. The development of a shear instability at some stage brings about the disruption of the forcing of differential rotation. In the first (hydrodynamic) part of the paper, the dynamics of axisymmetric flows near the bottom of the convection zone is numerically simulated. Forcing of differential rotation having velocity shear in latitude and the existence of solutions in the form of torsional waves with the 11-year oscillation period are shown. In the second part the dynamics of the magnetic field is studied. The most pronounced peculiarities of the solutions are the existence of forced oscillations with the 22-year period and the drift of the toroidal magnetic field component from the mid latitudes to the equator. In high and low latitudes after cycle maximum, the toroidal component is of opposite sign in accordance with observations. In the third part, the transport of momentum from the bottom of the convection zone to the outer surface by virtue of diffusivity is considered. The existence of some sources of differential rotation in the convection zone is not implied. A qualitative correspondence of the differential rotation profile in the bulk of the convection zone and on its outer surface to experimental data is shown. The time correspondence between torsional and magnetic oscillations is also in accordance with observations. 相似文献

The problems of flat directions and supersymmetry breaking are fundamental problems that are still unsolved in the comparison
of string theory with low-energy physics. A possible nonperturbative dilaton potential may play an important role in their
solution. In the present paper we consider D-dimensional, low-energy, string cosmological models with a di/aton potential.
Exact solutions are written for several simple potentials. The picture of cosmological evolution of a gravi-dilaton model
is investigated by methods of the qualitative theory of dynamical systems for different cases of the behavior of the potential
in the domain of strong coupling. Features of models having potentials that take negative values in certain ranges of values
of the dilaton field are discussed. A specific mechanism of generation of a nonperturbative potential, based on gaugino condensation
in the hidden sector of the gauge group, is considered.

A two-component theoretical model of the physical libration of the Moon in longitude is constructed with account taken of the viscosity of the core. In the new version, a hydrodynamic problem of motion of a fluid filling a solid rotating shell is solved. It is found that surfaces of equal angular velocity are spherical, and a velocity field of the fluid core of the Moon is described by elementary functions. A distribution of the internal pressure in the core is found. An angular momentum exchange between the fluid core and solid mantle is described by a third-order differential equation with a right-hand side. The roots of a characteristic equation are studied and the stability of rotation is proved. A libration angle as a function of time is found using the derived solution of the differential equation. Limiting cases of infinitely large and infinitely small viscosity are considered and an effect of lag of a libration phase from a phase of action of an external moment of forces is ascertained. This makes it possible to estimate the viscosity and sizes of the lunar fluid core from data of observations. 相似文献

We have analyzed more than 90 papers in the area “Magnetic fields and physical parameters of chemically peculiar and related stars,” published mainly in 2016. The main results of the period under survey are as follows. The search for new magnetic stars continued.Many measurements weremade at the 6-m BTA telescope of the SAO RAS, new data on stellar magnetism in the OrionOB1 association were obtained. A systematic study ofmagnetic fields of stars with large anomalies in the energy distribution in the continuum was started. New data on ultra-slowmagnetic rotators—chemically peculiar stars with rotation periods of years and decades are obtained. Successful observations on the search for new magnetic stars are performed among the objects of the southern sky in Chile at the FORS2 VLT spectropolarimeter. A new direction was developed, namely, the study of binarymagnetic stars. Depending on the mass–distance ratio between the components, interaction with the magnetosphere and, possibly, magnetic braking may occur. The study of the details of this process is important for the theory of formation of stellar magnetic fields. The search for large-scale, but weak magnetic fields (magnitude of unities and tens of G) in non-CP stars is ongoing. Such fields are found in Am stars. No fields were found in the classical Be stars. Cool stars of various types were studied in detail. They manifested magnetic fields of a complex structure. Their mapping was performed, changes in the topology of the field were found at timescales of several years. Spectral and photometric variability was studied. Dozens of new potentially magnetic stars are discovered as a result of the ASAS-3, SuperWASP, Stereo and Kepler surveys. High-accuracy observations of rapidly oscillating stars were performed with the BRITE nanosatellite.Work continued on the studies of magnetic and photometric variability of white dwarfs. Finally, an overview of several papers on exoplanets, related with the subject of our study is presented. 相似文献

In this paper we have rederived the equations of state for a magnetized Fermi gas by generalizing the physical definition of the pressure. We have also given a simplified derivation of the energy eigenvalues of a free electron in a magnetic field, based on the use of simple harmonic oscillators. Physical interpretations of our results are presented. Possible astrophysical applications are also discussed.On leave of absence from Dept. of Physics, C.I.E.A., Ap.

The catastrophic thermodynamic destruction of large cometary heterogeneous grains lying on the surface of a comet nucleus is examined. The core–mantle grain-structure model is assumed. Grain fragmentation as an explanation of sudden changes in cometary brightness is proposed. The approach presented to the problem of cometary outbursts is a development of a previous author's paper. The proposed mechanism is based on the idea of thermodynamical destruction of heterogeneous cometary grains. Numerical simulations have been carried out for a wide range of values of physical characteristics of cometary material. The results obtained are consistent with observational data. The main conclusion of this paper is that thermodynamical fragmentation of large grains can explain variations in brightness and also outbursts of comets. 相似文献

The study of the motion of interstellar clouds by direct dynamical methods is hindered by the lack of a complete set of initial
conditions of the motion. The hypothesis of the circular motion of interstellar matter of various composition is tested on
the basis of the catalog of Brand and Blitz. A modification of the method proposed by Edmondson and Hoerner, which was successfully
used for a statistical investigation of the shapes of the orbits of globular clusters, is used. It is established that interstellar
clouds move in nearly circular orbits with small deviations, so that data on the spiral structure of the Galaxy obtained by
radio-astronomical methods should be considered as close to reality.

The motion of a plasma in a time-dependent dipole magnetic field is considered. It is shown that the increase of the magnetic moment of the dipole (for example, as the result of the explosion of a magnetic star) leads to a concentration of a plasma in the polar regions. Likewise, a decrease of the magnetic moment (contraction of a star) would lead to the concentration of surrounding plasma in the equatorial plane. This process may be of importance in astrophysics and, particularly, in the dynamics of nebulae and non-stationary star envelopes.Translated from the Russian by P. Foukal and D. F. Smith. 相似文献

The theory of strong discontinuities in plasma with anisotropic pressure is applied for interpretation of the recent plasma and magnetic experiments on the boundary and in the tail of the magnetosphere. The properties of the discontinuities are described. It is supposed that on the boundary and in the tail of the magnetosphere anisotropic discontinuities occur with a nonzero normal component of the magnetic field. The general consequence of this assumption is the existence of the magnetospheric surface flow expanding from the subsolar point. The consequence does not contradict the data obtained on IMP 5. For the investigation of the low latitude part of the flow, the use of electrostatic analysers is desirable with the entrance oriented along the magnetospheric surface. The well-known qualitative scheme of the hydrodynamical flow with strong discontinuities in the tail is generalized by means of the three anisotropic discontinuities: the contact one coinciding with the magnetic neutral sheet, and the two discontinuities with the nonzero normal flow of the mass simulating the boundary of the plasma sheet. The result of the scheme of the components of the bulk velocity in the plasma sheet agrees with the recent observations on the Vela 4B. The scheme connects the well-known phenomena of the blocking and the thinning of the plasma sheet in the initial phase of the substorm. According to the general principles of the reconnection the dynamical dissipation is decreased by the blocking of the flow in the plasma sheet. The decrease leads to a drift of the plasma sheet boundary in the neutral sheet direction. The reverse picture is probably a result of a relaxation of the blocking. 相似文献

The influence of the effect of entrainment of superconducting protons by superfluid neutrons on the distribution of neutron
vortices in a rotating neutron star is investigated. It is shown that the proton vortex clusters generated by entrainment
currents create the magnetic structure of a neutron vortex. The average magnetic field induction in a neutron vortex is calculated.
The presence of the magnetic field of a neutron vortex considerably alters the radius of the vortex zone. The width of the
vortex-free zone at the surface of the neutron star’s core increases, reaching macroscopic values on the order of several
meters. This result considerably changes earlier concepts of the distribution of neutron vortices in a neutron star.

Outbursts and variations of brightness are well known manifestations of the physical activity of the comets. Most cometary outbursts are recorded not very far from the Sun, where sublimation of water ice plays a major role in the activity of this celestial bodies. However, comets sometimes show physical activity far from the Sun, where the rate of water ice sublimation is small. Also a special kind of small bodies, i.e. centaurs sometimes show strong physical activity far from the Sun. The paper is based on the idea that the nuclei of centaurs may contain numerous cavities that are filled with gas under pressure and debris of cometary material. Numerical simulations were carried out for realistically assumed values of a wide range of physical parameters of centaurs. The obtained results are consistent with the observations of the physical activity of these celestial bodies. 相似文献

Recent advances in understanding of the basic properties of compressible Magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence call for revisions of some of the generally accepted concepts. First, the MHD turbulence is not so messy as it is usually believed. In fact, the notion of strong nonlinear coupling of compressible and incompressible motions is not tenable. Alfven, slow and fast modes of MHD turbulence follow their own cascades and exhibit degrees of anisotropy consistent with theoretical expectations. Second, the fast decay of turbulence is not related to the compressibility of fluid. Rates of decay of compressible and incompressible motions are very similar. Third, the viscosity by neutrals does not suppress MHD turbulence in a partially ionized gas. Instead, MHD turbulence develops magnetic cascade at scales below the scale at which neutrals damp ordinary hydrodynamic motions. The implications of those changes of MHD turbulence paradigm for molecular clouds require further studies. Those studies can benefit from testing of theoretical predictions using new statistical techniques that utilize spectroscopic data. We briefly discuss advances in development of tools using which the statistics of turbulent velocity can be recovered from observations. 相似文献

A non-telescopic method of determining the quality of atmospheric seeing is discussed for large angular diameter objects, such as the Sun. In this method the concept of thermodynamic fluctuations is used to relate the observed intensity fluctuations to the r.m.s. angular diameter of the atmospheric seeing cells and telescopic angle of arrival fluctuations. Comparison between the measured r.m.s. cell size and telescopic angle of arrival fluctuations are presented for various degrees of seeing. Cross-correlation coefficients of 0.95 have been measured during such comparisons.Operated by the Association of Universities for Research in Astronomy, Inc.

The research on quasar OJ 287 has lasted over 100 years. OJ 287 exhibits the phenomenon of periodic two-peak outbursts with the eruptive period of 12 years. Observations are rather well interpreted with the black hole binary model. In this model, the secondary black hole moves around the primary black hole and crashes against the accretion disk of the primary black hole, causing outbursts. This model reasonably explains the light curves of OJ 287 and correctly predicts the time of future outbursts. These indirectly justify the precessional effect of general relativity and the existence of gravitational waves. The massive black hole in the center of galaxy is an important kind of gravitational wave source. However, the number of the galaxies with precisely determined kinematical equations of inner components is quite small. The precise kinematic orbits of black holes are provided by the black hole binary model, so the radiation of gravitational waves can be studied on the basis of these kinematic orbits. Based on the existing work, the evolutionary relations of the radiation power and waveform of gravitational waves with time are first derived by using the post-Newtonian approximation method. According to the current progress of the detection equipment of gravitational waves, i.e., IPTA (International Pulsar Timing Array), the direct detection of gravitational waves from OJ 287 may be possible within the future decade. 相似文献
