We present the results of multifrequency (15 + 8 + 5 GHz) polarization Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of the three BL Lacertae objects 0745+241, 1418+546 and 1652+398 together with 5-GHz VLBI Space Observatory Programme (VSOP) observations of 1418+546 and 1.6- and 5-GHz VSOP observations of the blazar 1055+018. The jets of all these sources have polarization structure transverse to the jet axis, with the polarization E vectors aligned with the jet along the jet spine and 'sheaths' of orthogonal E vectors at one or both edges of the jet. The presence of polarization aligned with the jet near the 'spine' may indicate that the jets are associated with helical B fields that propogate outward with the jet flow; the presence of orthogonal polarization near the edges of the jet may likewise be a consequence of a helical jet B field, or may be owing to an interaction with the ambient medium on parsec scales. We have tentatively detected interknot polarization in 1055+018 with E aligned with the local jet direction, consistent with the possibility that the jet of this source is associated with a helical B field.  相似文献   

On the stability of triangular libration points taking into account the light pressure for the circular restricted problem of three bodies     

Manju  R. K. Choudhry 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1985,36(2):165-190

In the present paper we have studied the resonance problem arising for critical mass values following Birkhoff's method of normalisation. It has been shown that for both the critical values the motion will remain unstable whether the critical terms are left in the Hamiltonian or carried to the coordinates in the process of normalisation.  相似文献   

A 20‐ka climate record from Central Himalayan loess deposits     

R. K. Pant  N. Basavaiah  N. Juyal  N. K. Saini  M. G. Yadava  E. Appel  A. K. Singhvi 《第四纪科学杂志》2005,20(5):485-492

The southwest monsoon that dominated Central Himalaya has preserved loessic silt deposits preserved in patches that are proximal to periglacial areas. The occurrence of such silts suggests contemporary prevalence of cold and dry northwesterly winds. Field stratigraphy, geochemistry, mineral magnetism, infrared stimulated luminescence (IRSL) and radiocarbon dating has enabled reconstruction of an event chronology during the past 20 ka. Three events of loess accretion could be identified. The first two events of loess deposition occurred betweem 20 and 9 ka and were separated by a phase of moderate weathering. Pedogenesis at the end of this event gave rise to a well‐developed soil that was bracketed around 9 to > 4 ka. This was followed by the third phase of loess accretion that occurred around 4 to > 1 ka. Episodes of loess deposition and soil formation are interpreted in terms of changes in the strength of the Indian southwest monsoon. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

Fundamental reference systems; Past,present, and future     

P. K. Seidelmann 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1985,37(3):199-207

The present fundamental reference system is defined by the FK5 Fundamental Reference Catalog and the associated IAU Resolutions of 1976 through 1982. The past is defined to be what preceded the present fundamental reference system and future is defined to be what ever will come after it. The resulting characteristics of the different fundamental reference systems are considered from the aspects of the observational data, the computational methods, and the underlying theories. Having developed an understanding of these operational fundamental reference systems, the desired properties of the ideal fundamental reference system are presented. Finally, some questions concerning the future fundamental reference system are presented.  相似文献   

Muon flux at the geographical South Pole     

X. Bai  T.K. Gaisser  A. Karle  K. Rawlins  G.M. Spiczak  Todor Stanev 《Astroparticle Physics》2006,25(6):361-367

The muon flux at the South Pole was measured for five zenith angles, 0°, 15°, 35°, 82.13° and 85.15° with a scintillator muon telescope incorporating ice Cherenkov tank detectors as the absorber. We compare the measurements with other data and with calculations.  相似文献   

Red-violet asymmetry in pearl satellites' birth     

F.Z. Feygin  YU.P. Kurchashov  V.A. Troitskaya  K. Dobeš 《Planetary and Space Science》1985,33(3):271-273

A high resolution numerical sonagram of Pc-1 magnetic record has shown that single narrow lines of Pc-1 spectra produce lower frequency (“red-shifted”) satellite lines more than twice as often as their higher frequency (“violet”) counterparts. The violet satellites usually emerge only when at least two ancestor lines are present simultaneously.  相似文献

Methods of Hierarchical Control of Water Quality Taking into Account Manipulations of the Center and Countermoves of Enterprises   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1  

Ugol'nitskii  G. A.  Usov  A. B. 《Water Resources》2004,31(3):343-350

Methods of hierarchical control including manipulations of a Center and the countermove of enterprises are considered using as an example a dynamic two-level model of river water quality control in the presence of point pollution sources and in the absence of nonpoint sources.  相似文献   

The Preboreal climate reversal and a subsequent solar‐forced climate shift     

J. van der Plicht  B. van Geel  S. J. P. Bohncke  J. A. A. Bos  M. Blaauw  A. O. M. Speranza  R. Muscheler  S. Bjrck 《第四纪科学杂志》2004,19(3):263-269

Accurate chronologies are essential for linking palaeoclimate archives. Carbon‐14 wiggle‐match dating was used to produce an accurate chronology for part of an early Holocene peat sequence from the Borchert (The Netherlands). Following the Younger Dryas–Preboreal transition, two climatic shifts could be inferred. Around 11 400 cal. yr BP the expansion of birch (Betula) forest was interrupted by a dry continental phase with dominantly open grassland vegetation, coeval with the PBO (Preboreal Oscillation), as observed in the GRIP ice core. At 11 250 cal. yr BP a sudden shift to a humid climate occurred. This second change appears to be contemporaneous with: (i) a sharp increase of atmospheric ¹⁴C; (ii) a temporary decline of atmospheric CO₂; and (iii) an increase in the GRIP ¹⁰Be flux. The close correspondence with excursions of cosmogenic nuclides points to a decline in solar activity, which may have forced the changes in climate and vegetation at around 11 250 cal. yr BP.
