We have observed the Sunyaev–Zel'dovich (SZ) effect in a sample of five moderate-redshift clusters with the Ryle Telescope, and used them in conjunction with X-ray imaging and spectral data from ROSAT and ASCA to measure the Hubble constant. This sample was chosen with a strict X-ray flux limit using both the Bright Cluster Sample and the Northern ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS) cluster catalogues to be well above the surface brightness limit of the RASS, and hence to be unbiased with respect to the orientation of the cluster. This controls a major potential systematic effect in the SZ/X-ray method of measuring H 0 . Taking the weighted geometric mean of the results and including the main sources of error, namely the noise in the SZ measurement, the uncertainty in the X-ray temperatures and the unknown ellipticity and substructure of the clusters, we find H 0 = 59+10 −9 (random)+8 −7 (systematic) km s−1 Mpc−1 assuming a standard cold dark matter model with ΩM = 1.0, ΩΛ = 0.0 or H 0 = 66+11 −10 +9 −8 km s−1 Mpc−1 if ΩM = 0.3, ΩΛ = 0.7 . 相似文献

Estimation of the offshore form of tsunami waves based on an observed tidegage record at a bay head is attempted by means of an impulse response method and a characteristics method. For several tsunamis in Onagawa Bay, the results estimated by both methods are compared with the observed data at an offshore station. The correlation coefficient between the estimated and the observed values is 0.9 to 0.95, and the present methods are proved to be practical. The validity of the characteristics method is further confirmed in the case of Ofunato Bay. 相似文献

The seasonal variations of water properties and the baroclinic flow pattern in the upper layer of Toyama Bay, where the shelf
breaks in the passway of the eastward coastal branch of the Tsushima Warm Current, have been examined using temperature and
salinity data from 26 local stations collected in the 32 years from 1963 through 1994. The results show that the flow pattern
around the bay, as inferred from the distributions of the geopotential anomaly at 300 dbar and saline core water, changes
remarkably from summer to autumn. There are two obvious inflows into Toyama Bay in a year. One is the surface inflow of less
saline water from east of the Noto Peninsula as the coastal-trapped density-driven flow of the coastal branch during the transition
from May to July. In September, this inflow is abruptly weakened by a transient northwestward reversal flow in the intermediate
layer around 100 m depth. This reversal flow is accompanied by the temporary shallowness of the pycnoclines inside the bay.
At that time, another inflow with more saline water of the year occurs in the intermediate layer. From November until January,
this reversal flow disappears and a southeastward passing through-flow gradually intensifies across the bay mouth, accompanied
by deepening of the pycnoclines inside the bay. According to our interannual analysis over the 32-year study period, this
reversal flow has been a stable seasonal phenomenon, except for only 4 years, in which a local warm region or warm eddy developed
just north of the Noto Peninsula. 相似文献

The concept of Markov chains, applied to stratigraphic sections, is reliable in analyzing cyclic patterns in lithologic successions. Randomness in the occurrence of lithologies repeating in a succession is evaluated generally in terms of entropies which can be calculated for the Markov matrix equated with the succession. Two types of entropies pertain to every state; one is relevant to the Markov matrix expressing the upward transitions, and the other, relevant to the matrix expressing the downward transitions. The latter and the former with respect to a certain state, making an entropy set, correspond to the degree of randomness in its linking with the others which occur as the precursor and the successor, respectively. It is obvious that the entropy sets which are calculated for all state variables serve as a reliable criterion in the discrimination of cyclic pattern of the succession. We are able based on the entropy sets to classify the various patterns into asymmetric, symmetric, and random cycles, which are exhibited also in actual lithologic successions. The entropy sets are calculated for Markov matrices which have been reported from a number of areas in the world, and compared with the cyclic patterns supposed there. Entropy for the whole system of sedimentation also is introduced to discuss variability of the condition in the depositional processes. 相似文献

Further observational evidence of normal mode Rossby waves with higher meridional mode numbers is presented with the aid of global data from the troposphere to the stratosphere over the period November 1979 through April 1986.It is shown, without using ana priori assumption of meridional structure, that the third antisymmetric modes of zonal wavenumbers 1 and 2,i.e., (1,4) and (2,4) modes, substantially exist in the real atmosphere. These modes are, however, easily influenced by the nonuniform background field even in the equinoctial season; amplitude submaxima near the equator are apt to be dubious in the upper stratosphere so that the prototype meridional structure becomes obscure. The period of the (1,4) mode often falls into that of the (1,3) mode, about 16 days. Hence, these two modes cannot be classified simply by their periods, but the separation is made by their meridional structure.An appearance calendar of various modes is also presented for the analysis period. It is found that each mode appears irregularly throughout the year and that the year-to-year variation is fairly large. 相似文献

Rocket measurements of lower ionosphere electron density by propagation characteristics of VLF waves
The electron density profile in the lower ionosphere was determined from the right- and left-handed circularly polarized wave fields of a 40 kHz ground based signal observed by means of a rocket born receiver. Estimation of the electron density profile from 70 km up to 100 km was made under the condition for the values calculated by the full wave analysis to agree with the observed values. Results are presented for two rockets launched soon after sunset. 相似文献

In the consideration of safety it is required that packages containing radioactive wastes when dumped at sea should keep their
integrity and retain their contents until they reach the seabed. Packages containing simulated radioactive wastes (non-radioactive)
were tested by a free-fall method at depthsca. 4,300 m in an area for dumping industrial waste off Shikoku Island. Since the weight of the largest package was 4,300 kg,
special attention was paid to the connection of a buoyancy system with mooring rope. Descent and ascent velocities of the
free-fall system were calculated prior to the experiment. A free-fall experiment with an extremely heavy object, heavier than
ever previously reported, was accomplished without trouble by using the free-fall system. Recovery of a camera, flash-light,
and other components was successful in each of the three experiments. Successive photographing of the package during descent
was made and its integrity was observed using the photographs taken by the recovered camera. The packages remained intact
during descent and at least for a short time after arrival on the seabed. 相似文献

Groundwater circulation is known to be one of the agents responsible for the redistribution of geothermal energy by acting as a source or sink in the course of its movement through porous media. Heat transport in groundwater systems is considered to be a coupled process and the theory based on this was used to analyse temperature profiles of 30 thermally stable observation wells in a deep, semi-confined aquifer system in the Tokyo Metropolitan area. Vertical water fluxes in the semi-confined aquifers and the associated upward heat fluxes were estimated from a heat flux equation that describes convection and conduction processes of heat transport in one dimension. The vertical downward water fluxes in Shitamachi lowland, Musashino and Tachikawa terraces were 0.69.26.91 × 10?9, 1.46-70.92 × 10?9 and 2.61.2204 × 10?9 m/s, respectively. A vertical upward water flux of 1.80-33.60 × 10?9 m/s was estimated in Shitamachi lowland. The water flux generally decreased with increasing depth for observation wells which intercepted more than one semi-confining layer. The estimated upward heat fluxes for Shitamachi lowland, Musashino and Tachikawa terraces were 0.32-1.12, 0.49-1.21 and 1.00-11.62 W/m2, respectively. The heat flux was highest in Tachikawa terrace where a major fault, the Tachikawa fault, is located. Generally, the estimated heat flux was higher in the semi-confining layers than in the aquifers. Areas with heat sources and sinks as well as groundwater flow patterns in the semi-confined aquifers were revealed by heat flux and temperature distributions in the study area. 相似文献
