Exact analysis of the combined data of SNO and Super-Kamiokande     

V. Berezinsky 《Astroparticle Physics》2002,17(4):575-514

Comparison of solar-neutrino signals in SNO [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 (2001) 071301] and Super-Kamiokande (SK) [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 (2001) 5651] detectors results in discovery of ν_e→ν_μ,τ oscillations at level 3.1–3.3σ [Phys. Rev. Lett. 87 (2001) 071301]. This comparison involves the assumption of neutrino spectrum and a choice for the thresholds of detection in both experiments. In this paper we obtain an exact formula for the comparison of the signals which is valid for arbitrary spectra and thresholds. We find that the no-oscillation hypothesis (astrophysical solutions) is excluded at 3.3σ. If the energy-dependent component of the survival probability for electron neutrinos is small as compared with the average value, i.e. in the case of small distortion of the observed spectrum, the oscillation hypothesis can also be tested to similar accuracy. The oscillation to sterile neutrino only, is excluded at 3.3σ level, and oscillation to active neutrinos is confirmed at 2.8σ.  相似文献   

Central regions of the early-type galaxies in the NGC 3169 group     

O. K. Sil’chenko  V. L. Afanasiev 《Astronomy Letters》2006,32(8):534-544

We have investigated the central regions of the galaxies in the NGC 3169/NGC 3166/NGC 3156 group with the multipupil fiber spectrograph of the 6-m telescope; the first (central) galaxy in the group is a spiral (Sa) one and the other two galaxies are lenticular ones. The group is known to have an extended HI cloud with a size of more than 100 kpc that is associated in its position, orientation, and rotation with the central galaxy NGC 3169. The mean age of the stellar populations in the centers of all three galaxies has been found to be approximately the same, ～1 Gyr. Since the galaxies are early-type ones and since NGC 3166 and NGC 3156 show no global star formation, we are dealing here with a synchronous star formation burst in the centers of all three galaxies.  相似文献   

Size-Flux Relation in Solar Active Regions     

O.V.Chumak 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2003,3(2):175-182

We present a study of the relationship between integral area and corresponding total magnetic flux for solar active regions. It is shown that some of these relationships are satisfied to simple power laws. Fractal examination showed that some of these power laws can not be justified inside the simple models of stationary magnetic flux tube aggregation. All magnetic fluxes and corresponding areas were calculated using the data measured with the Solar Magnetic Field Telescope of the Huairou Solar Observing Station in Beijing.  相似文献   

Merging of low-mass systems and the origin of the fundamental plane     

E.A. Evstigneeva  R.R. de Carvalho  A.L. Ribeiro  H.V. Capelato 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2003,284(2):487-490

We present the preliminary results of a study of how small stellar systems merge to form larger ones. As we display the families of galaxies in the μ_e - R_e plane (effective surface brightness versus effective radius) we realize that different morphological types occupy different loci, evidencing the different physical mechanisms operating in each family. As proposed by Capaccioli et al. (1992) this diagram is the logical equivalent of the HR diagram for stars. Here we take some initial steps in understanding of how we can establish the evolutionary tracks, solely due to dynamical processes, in the μ_e - R_e plane, ultimately making a dwarf elliptical to turn into a normal elliptical galaxy. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

An atlas of the optical spectrum of supernova 1987A in the large magellanic cloud     

V. J. Mclntyre  A. C. Gilmore  J. B. Hearnshaw 《Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy》1990,11(1):81-123

Photographic spectra of SN1987A in the LMC have been obtained from 1987 February 25 to 1988 June 30. Microdensitometer tracings of these have been reduced to intensity and corrections for instrumental response have been applied to the spectra. This paper presents these data in an atlas format, discusses the reduction procedures in detail, and presents radial velocity measurements of selected lines in the spectra  相似文献   

Chandrasekhar's perturbation method-oriented theories up to third order for uniformly and differentially-rotating polytropic stars: Error-removing techniques     

V. S. Geroyannis  F. N. Valvi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1986,126(1):119-132

In this paper we analyse error-removing techniques used without sufficient theoretical support in a previous paper, where Chandrasekhar's higher-order perturbation theories were developed for either uniformly or differentially-rotating polytropic stars.  相似文献   

Static fields in generalized theory of gravitation     

G. Haroutyounian  V. Papoyan 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1985,117(1):189-198

Solutions of field equations of the generalized theory of gravitation for neutral and charged point masses are found. The problem is formulated so that the solution may be expressed in harmonic, isotropic, Schwarzschild and, if necessary, any other coordinates. A method for the solution of the static axisymmetric problem (an analogue of a well-known Weyl's solution) is also proposed.  相似文献
