The DuneXpress observatory will characterize interstellar and interplanetary dust in-situ, in order to provide crucial information
not achievable with remote sensing astronomical methods. Galactic interstellar dust constitutes the solid phase of matter
from which stars and planetary systems form. Interplanetary dust, from comets and asteroids, represents remnant material from
bodies at different stages of early solar system evolution. Thus, studies of interstellar and interplanetary dust with DuneXpress
in Earth orbit will provide a comparison between the composition of the interstellar medium and primitive planetary objects.
Hence DuneXpress will provide insights into the physical conditions during planetary system formation. This comparison of
interstellar and interplanetary dust addresses directly themes of highest priority in astrophysics and solar system science,
which are described in ESA’s Cosmic Vision. The discoveries of interstellar dust in the outer and inner solar system during
the last decade suggest an innovative approach to the characterization of cosmic dust. DuneXpress establishes the next logical
step beyond NASA’s Stardust mission, with four major advancements in cosmic dust research: (1) analysis of the elemental and
isotopic composition of individual interstellar grains passing through the solar system, (2) determination of the size distribution
of interstellar dust at 1 AU from 10 − 14 to 10 − 9 g, (3) characterization of the interstellar dust flow through the planetary system, (4) establish the interrelation of interplanetary
dust with comets and asteroids. Additionally, in supporting the dust science objectives, DuneXpress will characterize dust
charging in the solar wind and in the Earth’s magnetotail. The science payload consists of two dust telescopes of a total
of 0.1 m2 sensitive area, three dust cameras totaling 0.4 m2 sensitive area, and a nano-dust detector. The dust telescopes measure high-resolution mass spectra of both positive and negative
ions released upon impact of dust particles. The dust cameras employ different detection methods and are optimized for (1)
large area impact detection and trajectory analysis of submicron sized and larger dust grains, (2) the determination of physical
properties, such as flux, mass, speed, and electrical charge. A nano-dust detector searches for nanometer-sized dust particles
in interplanetary space. A plasma monitor supports the dust charge measurements, thereby, providing additional information
on the dust particles. About 1,000 grains are expected to be recorded by this payload every year, with 20% of these grains
providing elemental composition. During the mission submicron to micron-sized interstellar grains are expected to be recorded
in statistically significant numbers. DuneXpress will open a new window to dusty universe that will provide unprecedented
information on cosmic dust and on the objects from which it is derived. 相似文献

In order to search for oscillations in velocity and magnetic field strength within a sunspot umbra, a time series of spectra has been obtained through a circular analyzer and the Gregory-Coudé telescope at the Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife. The velocity oscillations clearly show peaks of power at periods between 2 and 7 minutes, with a maximum at 5 minutes. The apparent variations of the magnetic field strength, however, don't exhibit significant oscillations; these fluctuations are rather produced by the influence of parasitic stray light from the surrouding quiet sun which are also visible in the measured time variations of the umbral contrast of continuum intensity. 相似文献

The Ulysses spacecraft orbits the Sun on a highly inclined orbit, and the impact ionization dust detector on board continuously measures interstellar dust grains with masses up to , penetrating deep into the Solar System. The flow direction is close to the mean apex of the Sun's motion through the local interstellar cloud (LIC), and the grains act as tracers of the physical conditions in the LIC. Previous analysis gave a velocity dispersion of up to 40° for the interstellar grains. We partially re-analyzed the Ulysses interstellar dust data set, taking into account the detector's inner side walls. As the side walls have a sensitivity for dust impact detection almost identical to that of the instrument's target area, wall impactors must be taken into account for estimating the intrinsic velocity dispersion of the interstellar impactors and the interstellar dust flux value. Neglect of the sensor side walls overestimates the interstellar dust stream velocity dispersion by about 30% and the interstellar dust flux by about 20%. 相似文献

Es wird eine Möglichkeit aufgezeigt, mittels Beobachtungen eines Planetoiden möglichst geringer Exzentrizität, verteilt über einen kurzen Beobachtungszeitraum und möglichst in einer geozentrischen Schleife gelegen, absolute Positionen einer zweckmäßigkeitshalber geringen Anzahl von Sternen aus dem durchwanderten Gebiet erhalten zu können. 相似文献

One of the best series of observations of Halley's comet during its apparition in 1836 by J. LAMONT in München-Bogenhausen is not yet reduced. It could increase the period of useful observations for this apparition by more than half a year. The reduced observations are now published in detail. 相似文献
