Time signatures of impulsively generated waves in a coronal plasma     

K. Murawski  B. Roberts 《Solar physics》1994,151(2):305-317

Impulsively generated waves in solar coronal loops are numerically simulated in the frame-work of cold magnetohydrodynamics. Coronal inhomogeneities are approximated by gas density slabs embedded in a uniform magnetic field. The simulations show that an initially excited pulse results in the propagation of wave packets which correspond to both trapped and leaky waves. Whereas the leaky waves propagate outside the slab, the trapped waves occur as a result of a total reflection from the slab walls. Time signatures of these waves are made by a detection of the trapped waves at a fixed spatial location. For waves excited within the slab, time signatures exhibit periodic, quasi-periodic and decay phases. The time signatures for waves excited outside the slab, or for a multi-series of variously shaped impulses generated at different places and times, can possess extended quasi-periodic phases. The case of parallel slabs, when the presence of a second slab influences the character of wave propagation in the first slab, exhibits complex time signatures as a result of solitary waves interaction.  相似文献   

Double starbursts triggered by mergers in hierarchical clustering scenarios

We use cosmological smooth particle hydrodynamical (SPH) simulations to study the effects of mergers in the star formation history of galactic objects in hierarchical clustering scenarios. We find that during some merger events, gaseous discs can experience two starbursts: the first one during the orbital decay phase, owing to gas inflows driven as the satellite approaches, and the second one when the two baryonic clumps collide. A trend for these first induced starbursts to be more efficient at transforming the gas into stars is also found. We detect that systems that do not experience early gas inflows have well-formed stellar bulges and more concentrated potential wells, which seem to be responsible for preventing further gas inward transport triggered by tidal forces. The potential wells concentrate owing to the accumulation of baryons in the central regions and of dark matter as the result of the pulling in by baryons. The coupled evolution of the dark matter and baryons would lead to an evolutionary sequence during which systems with shallower total potential wells suffer early gas inflows during the orbital decay phase that help to feed their central mass concentration, pulling in dark matter and contributing to build up more stable systems. Within this scenario, starbursts triggered by early gas inflows are more likely to occur at early stages of evolution of the systems and to be an important contributor to the formation of stellar bulges. Our results constitute the first proof that bulges can form as the product of collapse, collisions and secular evolution in a cosmological framework, and they are consistent with a rejuvenation of the stellar population in bulges at intermediate z with, at least, 50 per cent of the stars (in SCDM) being formed at high z .  相似文献

ISO Observations of Isolated Herbig AE/BE Stars     

C. Waelkens  K. Malfait  L.B.F.M. Waters 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1997,255(1-2):25-33

We report on SWS and LWS observations of the circumstellar disks of young stars of a few solar masses. The ISO spectra of these objects present a diversity of emission features of carbon-rich and oxygen-rich grains. The similarity of the forsterite spectra observed for Comet Hale-Bopp and the Haebe star HD100546 is particularly striking and provides a new argument that huge comet swarms are formed in the disks surrounding young stars. While the data suggest that the formation of crystalline silicates in the dust disks essentially occurs when a Haebe star has already reached the main sequence, no clear correlation with stellar age only is apparent. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献   

PHOTOGRAMMETRIC DATA CAPTURE: AN INEXPENSIVE ALTERNATIVE     

B. D. F. Methley 《The Photogrammetric Record》1994,14(83):793-803

A case is made for the development of an inexpensive and portable data capturing unit which could be used with existing mirror stereoscopes and which could provide an accuracy sufficient for most digital map databases. The results of simulation experiments to test the accuracy of the system are presented.  相似文献

40Ar-39Ar dating of the H3 chondrite Sainte Rose     

Thomas Stephan  Elmar K. Jessberger 《Meteoritics & planetary science》1992,27(5):580-584

Abstract— A whole rock sample from the H3 chondrite Sainte Rose, which was discovered in 1983, was dated with the ⁴⁰Ar-³⁹Ar technique. From the K/Ca spectrum and from an analysis of the ³⁹Ar recoil effect we conclude that this meteorite has at least two distinguishable K-carriers: a low temperature, high-K/Ca, fine-grained carrier with a typical grain size of about 2 μm and a high temperature, low-K/Ca, more coarse-grained carrier. The K-Ar clocks of both were started 4.40 ± 0.01 Ga ago.  相似文献

A comparison of theoreticalCIV emission line strengths with active region observations obtained with the Solar EUV Rocket Telescope and Spectrograph (SERTS)     

F. P. Keenan  R. J. Thomas  W. M. Neupert  E. S. Conlon  V. M. Burke 《Solar physics》1993,144(1):69-74

Theoretical line ratios involving 2s ² S - 3p ² P, 2p ² P - 3s ² S, and 2p ² S - 3d ² D transitions inCiv between 312 and 420 Å are presented. A comparison of these with solar active region observational data obtained during a rocket flight by the Solar EUV Rocket Telescope and Spectrograph (SERTS) reveals good agreement between theory and experiment, with discrepancies that average only 22%. This provides experimental support for the accuracy of the atomic data adopted in the line ratio calculations, and also resolves discrepancies found previously when the theoretical results were compared with solar data from the S082A instrument on boardSkylab. The potential usefulness of theCIV line ratios as electron temperature diagnostics for the solar transition region is briefly discussed.  相似文献
