Analysis of a UV Event in a Polar Coronal Hole     

Patsourakos  Spiros  Vial  Jean-Claude 《Solar physics》2001,203(1):39-51

We present observations of a UV event which occurred in a polar coronal hole. They were obtained by SUMER on SOHO in several chromospheric and transition region spectral lines. Its birth site was about 50 arc sec inside the limb and in a network lane showing a net outflow before its initiation. The event had an extension of about 5 arc sec along the slit, a duration of about 3 min and was characterized by a large increase of intensity together with a significant line broadening with, however, downflows of about 50 km s^–1 being dominant. Proper motions with a velocity of about 10 km s^–1 were also observed. The event appeared at middle transition (Ovi) temperatures and it simultaneously showed up in chromospheric (Oi, Ly ) and low transition region (Cii) temperatures. We discuss this event in view of different scenarios to account for it. Our event could be a part of the large family of quiet-Sun explosive events observed by Ryutova and Tarbell (2000) taking place in polar coronal holes that are triggered by magnetic reconnection in the low solar atmosphere.  相似文献

A transmission electron microscope investigation of shock metamorphism in olivine of the Ilafegh 013 chondrite     

Pascal JOREAU  Hugues LEROUX  Jean-Claude DOUKHAN 《Meteoritics & planetary science》1997,32(2):309-316

Abstract— Ilafegh 013 is a slightly weathered, type-3 ordinary chondrite that is unusual in that it is highly shocked. Olivine grains in chondrules were studied in detail by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to characterize the dislocations, fractures and recrystallization textures. Only c dislocations, in the (010) glide plane, seem to be activated by the shock wave. Fractures are more numerous in the TEM than at the scale of the optical microscope. They can be divided into two groups: (a) Open fractures with injections of molten metal, sulphide, and in some cases, phases containing Ca, Al, Na and K. (b) Very straight and narrow cracks parallel to {130} planes without injected material and consisting of imperfectly relaxed subgrain boundaries composed of two families of dislocations (Burgers vectors a and c ). Both types of dislocations are roughly in screw orientation (i.e., the subgrain boundaries have a pronounced twist character). It is suggested that they formed during the shock in order to relax stresses around shear fractures (fractures with displacements of their walls parallel to the fracture plane). Recrystallization occurs in areas where the dislocation density is high. Since diaplectic glass was not detected, it is suggested that recrystallization resulted from the large elastic energy of the lattice defects stored in the deformed crystals.  相似文献   

Neutral Hydrogen and Its Emission Lines in the Solar Corona     

Jean-Claude Vial  Martine Chane-Yook 《Solar physics》2016,291(12):3549-3566

Since the Lyman-\(\alpha\) rocket observations of Gabriel (Solar Phys. 21, 392, 1971), it has been realized that the hydrogen (H) lines could be observed in the corona and that they offer an interesting diagnostic for the temperature, density, and radial velocity of the coronal plasma. Moreover, various space missions have been proposed to measure the coronal magnetic and velocity fields through polarimetry in H lines. A necessary condition for such measurements is to benefit from a sufficient signal-to-noise ratio. The aim of this article is to evaluate the emission in three representative lines of H for three different coronal structures. The computations have been performed with a full non-local thermodynamic-equilibrium (non-LTE) code and its simplified version without radiative transfer. Since all collisional and radiative quantities (including incident ionizing and exciting radiation) are taken into account, the ionization is treated exactly. Profiles are presented at two heights (1.05 and 1.9 solar radii, from Sun center) in the corona, and the integrated intensities are computed at heights up to five solar radii. We compare our results with previous computations and observations (e.g. L\(\alpha\) from Ultraviolet Coronal Spectrometer) and find a rough (model-dependent) agreement. Since the H\(\alpha\) line is a possible candidate for ground-based polarimetry, we show that in order to detect its emission in various coronal structures, it is necessary to use a very narrow (less than 2 Å wide) bandpass filter.  相似文献   

Lizards and snakes from the late Miocene hominoid locality of Ravin de la Pluie (Axios Valley,Greece)     

Georgios L. Georgalis  Jean-Claude Rage  Louis de Bonis  George D. Koufos 《Swiss Journal of Geoscience》2018,111(1-2):169-181

We here describe lizards and snakes from the late Miocene (MN 10) of Ravin de la Pluie, near Thessaloniki, Greece, a locality widely known for its hominoid primate Ouranopithecus macedoniensis. The new finds comprise two large-sized lizards (a probable anguine and a varanid) and two snakes (an elapid and a small-sized “colubrine”). Even if the material is represented by few specimens, this is the first record of squamates from the late Miocene MN 10 biozone of southeastern Europe and the third only for the whole continent. The importance of the varanid vertebrae for systematic attributions is discussed. The new varanid limb elements described herein rank among the few such specimens in the fossil record of monitor lizards. Judging from the new and previously published varanid appendicular material, we suggest that Neogene monitor lizards from Europe possessed comparatively short and robustly built limbs. Distinctive scars on one of the limb elements are interpreted as bite marks of a predator or scavenger, offering insights on the palaeoecology of the herpetofauna of the locality.  相似文献   

Guest Editorial Latest developments in GIS/LIS     

Jean-Claude Muller 《International journal of geographical information science》2013,27(4):293-303

Abstract

Significant achievements have taken place in Geographical/Land Information Systems (GIS/LIS). An attempt is made to give an overview of the state of the art as well as a vision of progress still to be accomplished. Key issues are discussed in various GIS/LIS activities. A generic analysis shows that most of the applications are environment-oriented. The various GIS/LIS topical issues are discussed in the order of an ascending graph, including data capture, data structure and modelling, data quality and standards, institutions, ethics, education, visualization and interface, spatial decision support systems, and applications. Finally a brief assessment of the role and nature of GIS is made. It is noted, in particular, that there are great discrepancies in the spread and success of GIS/LIS at the international level. This is true between developed and developing countries, but the case can also be made between western industrialized countries. It is also observed that there is an increasing number of professions involved in GIS/LIS activities and an increasing collaboration between those professions. Finally, it is observed that GIS/LIS are used predominantly as a tool to manage and keep records, although there are signs that GIS/LIS are also leading the way towards a new spatial science. This is only a 1993 ‘snap shot’, and is expected that many of the statements have only a limited life, considering the rapid changes in both theory and technology.  相似文献   

Distribution of deep carbon dioxide in relation to the structure and tectonic evolution of south-east France     

François Arthaud  Jean Dazy  Jean-Claude Grillot 《Geodinamica Acta》2013,26(2):86-102

Abstract

Throughout SE France, ¹³C-values of CO₂releases suggest that a variable part of the C0₂ emission derives from mantle and/or lower crust. Carbon dioxide emission takes place in various geological settings. Geodynamical analyses lead to the identification of five provinces: the Sub-Alpine Ranges, the French Massif Central, the Mediterranean part of the Languedoc, the western Pyrénées and the Alps at the West of the Penninic front. Possible correlations are suggested between CO₂ flux and tectonic history of the structural provinces.

Possible processes by which CO₂ is extracted from the mantle, stored and transferred to the surface are investigated for each of these provinces. Major crustal scale gas movements may have taken place during the Carboniferous (Variscan and Late Variscan tectogenesis), the Lias and Dogger (rifting), the Upper Cretaceous and the Cenozoic (Alpine tectogenesis), A model of successive circulations of fluids on the scale of the whole Southeastern France CO₂-belt is proposed. This integrated isotopic and geodynamic approach contributes to a better understanding of the regional CO₂flux.  相似文献
