Einsteins' gravity with massive gravitons     

Attila Mészáros 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1985,111(2):399-405

Graviton may, in principle, have a small non-zero mass. In this paper the relevant theory of the massive graviton with six polarisations is developed. The drastic impact of a non-zero mass of the graviton on cosmology is also illustrated.  相似文献   

A study of the magnetic helicity during eight HELIOS-observed solar proton events     

J. A. Otaola  J. F. Valdés-Galicia 《Solar physics》1995,160(1):41-52

We have studied the influence of the magnetic helicity on solar particle propagation using the IMF data observed by the HELIOS spacecraft in the range 0.31–0.95 AU, during eight solar proton events. For this, we have derived power and helicity spectra of the turbulence of the magnetic field during the time of the events. These are used to compute the particle pitch-angle scattering coefficients according to the quasi-linear theory (QLT) treatment of particle propagation in turbulent magnetic fields. The results show that in all the cases the helicity effects are negligible and the particle's mean free paths deduced from the pitch-angle diffusion coefficients are the same regardless of whether or not helicity effects are included in the calculations. The computed mean free paths are quite different in each case.Deceased 10 April, 1995.  相似文献   

A comparison of artificial solar granules with real solar granules     

H. Wöhl  Å. Nordlund 《Solar physics》1985,97(2):213-221

The lifetimes, characteristics of the shapes as well as lengths and perimeters of artificial solar granules (Nordlund, 1982, 1984a) are compared with data from the literature and parameters determined from two different sets of observed granules. No significant differences of the parameters for these sets of granules are detectable.Mitteilungen aus dem Kiepenheuer-Institut Nr. 251.  相似文献   

Common Proper Motion Search for Faint Companions Around Early-Type Field Stars – Progress Report     

Valentin D. Ivanov  G. Chauvin  C. Foellmi  M. Hartung  N. Huélamo  C. Melo  D. Nürnberger  M. Sterzik 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2006,304(1-4):247-249

The multiplicity of early-type stars is still not well established. The derived binary fraction is different for individual star forming regions, suggesting a connection with the age and the environment conditions. The few studies that have investigated this connection do not provide conclusive results. To fill in this gap, we started the first detailed adaptive-optic-assisted imaging survey of early-type field stars to derive their multiplicity in a homogeneous way. The sample has been extracted from the Hipparcos Catalog and consists of 341 BA-type stars within ∼300 pc from the Sun. We report the current status of the survey and describe a Monte-Carlo simulation that estimates the completeness of our companion detection.  相似文献   

Survival,growth and shell deformities of copper- and cadmium-exposed mussels (Mytilus edulis L.) in brackish water     

Inke Sunila  Reijo Lindström 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1985,21(4):555-565

Mussels, Mytilus edulis L., were exposed to elevated concentrations of copper or cadmium in the laboratory, then placed in cages in the sea (salinity 7‰). One year later maximum lengths of the mussels were measured and shells screened for deformities. Growth was 0·6 cm year^?1 in the control cages and retarded in cages of exposed mussels. A total of 63% of cadmium-exposed and 46% of copper-exposed mussels had shell deformities. In the control cages 26% were deformed while in a natural population only 3% were deformed. The proportion of deformities to growth was inversely related. Low concentrations showed their injuriousness in this long-term test, probably due to the closing of the valves during exposure to high concentrations.  相似文献

A 20cm ² CCD mosaic camera has been especially built to search for dark galactic halo objects by the gravitational microlensing effect. The sensitive area is made of 16 edge-buttable CCDs developped by Thomson-CTS, with 23×23 µm ² pixels. The 35 kg camera housing and mechanical equipment is presented. The associated electronics and data acquisition system are described in a separate paper. The camera resides at the focal plane of a 40 cm, f/10, Ferson reflector. The instrument has been in operation since December 1991 at the La Silla Observatory (ESO).  相似文献   

WIMPs and solar evolution code     

Yannick Giraud-Héraud  Jean Kaplan  François De Volnay Martin  Charling Tao  Sylvaine Turck-Chièze 《Solar physics》1990,128(1):21-33

The Saclay solar evolution code is used to check the effect of WIMPs on solar evolution. In this paper we study the effects of various types of Cosmion-matter interactions, give constraints on the crosssections compatible with the measured neutrino rate of 2 SNU on chlorine, and relate these constraints to ongoing dark matter detection experiments.Unité associée au CNRS UA 280, F-75251 Paris Cedex 05, France.On leave from LPC, Collège de France.  相似文献   

The solar differential rotation: Present status of observations   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

E. H. Schröter 《Solar physics》1985,100(1-2):141-169

The present status of observations regarding the solar differential rotation is reviewed from contributions published in the last two decades. The paper does not deal with the theory; it mentions theoretical aspects only where they are needed to guide and to understand observational efforts and results.Mitteilungen aus dem Kiepenheuer-Institut Nr. 250.  相似文献   

The expansive nondecelerative universe     

Vladimír Skalský 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1993,201(1):3-14

(a) Hubble's discovery of the expansion of the Universe makes it possible to choose unambiguously from the models described by Friedmann's equations of universe dynamics. (b) From the present temperature of the cosmic microwave background radiation, the specific entropy in the matter era and the model properties of the expansive nondecelerative universe, we can determine the present parameters of our Universe with deviations smaller than 2.2%.  相似文献   

The Scattered Disk Population and the Oort Cloud     

Fernández  Julio A.  Gallardo  Tabaré  Brunini  Adrián 《Earth, Moon, and Planets》2003,92(1-4):43-48

The trans-Neptunian belt has been subject to a strong depletion that has reduced its primordial population by a factor of one hundred over the solar system's age. One by-product of such a depletion process is the existence of a scattered disk population in transit from the belt to other places, such as the Jupiter zone, the Oort cloud or interstellar space. We have integrated the orbits of the scattered disk objects (SDOs) so far discovered by 2500 Myr to study their dynamical time scales and the probability of falling in each of the end states mentioned above, paying special attention to their contribution to the Oort cloud. We found that their dynamical half-time is close to 2.5 Gyr and that about one third of the SDOs end up in the Oort cloud.  相似文献
