S. K. Gupta 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1977,48(1):199-206

The light and colour curves of the δ-Scuti star HR 1170 are presented. The absolute and bolometric magnitudes are derived and the position of the star on the colour-colour diagram is also shown. The primary and beat periods estimated from the light curves are 0 _. ^d 098 299 and 0 _. ^d 392 06, respectively.  相似文献

S. K. Bishnu  S. R. Das Gupta 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1992,196(1):65-100

We have applied the method of Wiener-Hopf technique to obtain the Green's functions of one-group transport equations (with anisotropic unit plane source and with isotroic unit plane source) for a finite slab of passive and multiplying media.  相似文献   

The Sq current system during the International Geophysical Year     

S. R. C. Malin  J. C. Gupta 《Geophysical Journal International》1977,49(2):515-529

Summary. The daily variation for the mean of the eight most quiet days of the IGY is represented as a function of latitude, longitude and UT by means of a spherical harmonic model. The most appropriate choice of Sq baseline is investigated, on the assumption that the external electric currents deduced from the model should be negligible at local midnight. The properties of the final model are discussed, particularly with regard to the external current foci, and are compared with those of previous models.  相似文献   

On Charged Analogues of Buchdahl’S Type Fluid Spheres     

Y.?K.?Gupta  Mukesh?KumarEmail author 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2005,299(1):43-59

In this article the charged analogues of recently derived Buchdahl’s type fluid spheres have been obtained by considering a particular form of electric field intensity. In this process, Einstein–Maxwell field equations yield eight different classes of solutions, joining smoothly with the exterior Reissner–Nordstrom metric at the pressure free intersurface. Out of the eight solutions only seven could be utilized to represent superdense star models with ultrahigh surface density of the order 2×10¹⁴ gm cm⁻³. The maximum masses of the star models were found to be 8.223931M_Θ and 8.460857M_Θ subject to strong and weak energy conditions, respectively, which are much higher than the maximum masses 3.82M_Θ and 4.57M_Θ allowed in the neutral cases. The velocity of sound seen to be less than that of light throughout the star models.  相似文献   

Some studies on solar microwave bursts in relation to the phases of the associated Hα-flares and their spectral nature     

S. K. Sarkar  T. Chattopadhyay  M. K. Das Gupta 《Solar physics》1975,40(2):411-415

Occurrences of the flare-associated microwave bursts as well as their peak flux and energy excess spectra have been examined in relation to the pre- and post-maximum phases of the respective flares during the period 1969–72. Results obtained are: (i) about 76% of the flare-associated bursts occur in the pre-maximum phase and the remaining 24% occurs in the post-maximum phase irrespective of the flare classification, intensity-wise or area-wise; (ii) ‘impulsive’ and ‘gradual rise and fall’ bursts are relatively more important in the pre-maximum phase while ‘post burst increase’ bursts show comparatively higher occurrences in the post-maximum phase; (iii) peak flux and energy excess spectra of the concurrent microwave bursts in the pre-maximum phase of the flare are mostly of ‘inverted U’ and ‘increasing with frequency’ spectral types. Of these, ‘impulsive’ bursts are predominantly of the ‘inverted U’ and the ‘grf’ bursts are of the ‘increasing with frequency’ spectral type.  相似文献

South Equatorial Current (SEC) driven changes at DSDP Site 237, Central Indian Ocean, during the Plio-Pleistocene: Evidence from Benthic Foraminifera and Stable Isotopes   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Anil K. Gupta  Moumita Das  K. Bhaskar 《Journal of Asian Earth Sciences》2006,28(4-6):276-290

This study attempts to analyse paleoceanographic changes in the Central Indian Ocean (Deep Sea Drilling Project Site 237), linked to monsoon variability as well as deep-sea circulation during the Plio-Pleistocene. We used factor and cluster analyses of census data of the 34 most dominant species of benthic foraminifera that enabled us to identify five biofacies: Astrononion umbilicatulum–Uvigerina proboscidea (Au–Up), Pullenia bulloides–Bulimina striata (Pb–Bs), Globocassidulina tumida–Nuttallides umbonifera (Gt–Nu), Gyroidinoides nitidula–Cibicides wuellerstorfi (Gn–Cw) and Cassidulina carinata–Cassidulina laevigata (Cc–Cl) biofacies. Knowledge of the environmental preferences of modern deep-sea benthic foraminifera helped to interpret the results of factor and cluster analyses in combination with oxygen and carbon isotope values. The biofacies indicative of high surface productivity, resulting from a stronger South Equatorial Current (Au–Up and Pb–Bs biofacies), dominate the early Pliocene interval (5.6–4.5 Ma) of global warmth. An intense Indo-Pacific ‘biogenic bloom’ and strong Oxygen Minimum Zone extended to intermediate depths (1000–2000 m) over large parts of the Indian Ocean in the early Pliocene. Since 4.5 Ma, the food supply in the Central Indian Ocean dropped and fluctuated while deep waters were corrosive (biofacies Gt–Nu, Gn–Cw). The Pleistocene interval is characterized by an intermediate flux of organic matter (Cc–Cl biofacies).  相似文献   

Non-thermal transient sources from rotating black holes     

Maurice H. P. M. van Putten  Alok C. Gupta 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,394(4):2238-2246

Rotating black holes can power the most extreme non-thermal transient sources. They have a long-duration viscous time-scale of spin-down, and produce non-thermal emissions along their spin-axis, powered by a relativistic capillary effect. We report on the discovery of exponential decay in Burst and Triensient Source Experiment (BATSE) light curves of long gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) by matched filtering, consistent with a viscous time-scale, and identify ultra-high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) about the Greisen–Zatsepin–Kuzmin (GZK) threshold with linear acceleration of ion contaminants along the black hole spin-axis, consistent with black hole masses and lifetimes of Fanaroff–Riley type II (FR II) active galactic nuclei (AGN). We explain the absence of UHECRs from BL Lac objects due to UHECR emissions preferably at appreciable angles away from the black hole spin-axis. Black hole spin may be the key to unification of GRBs and their host environments, and to AGN and their host galaxies. Our model points to long-duration bursts in radio from long GRBs without supernovae and gravitational waves from all long GRBs.  相似文献   

Saraswati Nadi in Haryana and its linkage with the Vedic Saraswati River — Integrated study based on satellite images and ground based information     

B. K. Bhadra  A. K. Gupta  J. R. Sharma 《Journal of the Geological Society of India》2009,73(2):273-288

Detailed studies on the status of Saraswati Nadi of northern Haryana have been carried out using multi date and multi resolution satellite images, GIS techniques and ground data. Palaeochannels have been delineated using remote sensing techniques and validated using discovered archaeological sites, sedimentological data from drilled wells and water quality data. Detailed analysis of hydrological data (rainfall and stream discharge), catchment area and petrographic analysis of rock samples have been done to decipher the dwindling state of Saraswati Nadi. Likelihood of Adi Badri as the place of origin of Saraswati Nadi and its possible linkage with the Vedic Saraswati River is discussed. Suggestions have been given for safeguarding and revival of Saraswati Nadi as a national heritage.  相似文献
