We study the spatial distribution and colours of galaxies within the region covered by the cold spot in the cosmic microwave background recently detected by the Very Small Array interpherometer (VSA) towards the Corona Borealis supercluster (CrB-SC). The spot is in the northern part of a region with a radius  ∼1° (∼5 Mpc  at the redshift of CrB-SC) enclosing the clusters Abell 2056, 2065, 2059 and 2073, and where the density of galaxies, excluding the contribution from those clusters, is approximately two times higher than the mean value in typical intercluster regions of the CrB-SC. Two of such clusters (Abell 2056 and 2065) are members of the CrB-SC, while the other two are in the background. This high-density intercluster region is quite inhomogeneous, being the most remarkable feature a large concentration of galaxies in a narrow filament running from Abell 2065 with a length of ∼35 arcmin (  ∼3 Mpc  at the redshift of CrB-SC) in the SW–NE direction. This intercluster population of galaxies probably results from the interaction of clusters Abell 2065 and 2056. The area subtended by the VSA cold spot shows an excess of faint  (21 < r < 22)  and red  (1.1 < r − i < 1.3)  galaxies as compared with typical values within the CrB-SC intercluster regions. This overdensity of galaxies shows a radial dependence and extends out to ∼15 arcmin. This could be the signature of a previously unnoted cluster in the background.  相似文献   

Ironing out primordial temperature fluctuations with polarization: optimal detection of cosmic structure imprints     

M. Frommert  T. A. Enßlin 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,395(4):1837-1844

Secondary anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) can be detected by using the cross-correlation between the large-scale structure (LSS) and the CMB temperature fluctuations. In such studies, chance correlations of primordial CMB fluctuations with the LSS are the main source of uncertainty. We present a method for reducing this noise by exploiting information contained in the polarization of CMB photons. The method is described in general terms and then applied to our recently proposed optimal method for measuring the integrated Sachs–Wolfe (ISW) effect. We obtain an expected signal-to-noise ratio of up to 8.5. This corresponds to an enhancement of the signal-to-noise ratio by 23 per cent as compared to the standard method for ISW detection, and by 16 per cent w.r.t. our recently proposed method, both for the best-case scenario of having perfect (noiseless) CMB and LSS data.  相似文献

Application of a Recursive Filter to a Three-Dimensional Variational Ocean Data Assimilation System     

LIU Ye  YAN Changxiang 《大气科学进展》2010,27(2):293-302

In order to improve the efficiency of the Ocean Variational Assimilation System (OVALS), which has been widely used in various applications, an improved OVALS (OVALS2) is developed based on the recursive filter (RF) algorithm. The first advantage of OVALS2 is that memory storage can be substantially reduced in practice because it implicitly computes the background error covariance matrix; the second advantage is that there is no inversion of the background error covariance by preconditioning the control var...  相似文献   

MM5 Simulations of the China Regional Climate During the Mid-Holocene          下载免费PDF全文

LIU Yu  HE Jinhai  LI Weiliang  CHEN Longxun  LI Wei  ZHANG Bo 《Acta Meteorologica Sinica》2010,24(4):468-483

Using a regional climate model MM5 nested with an atmospheric global climate model CCM3, a series of simulations and sensitivity experiments have been performed to investigate responses of the mid-Holocene climate to different factors over China. Model simulations of the mid-Holocene climate change, especially the precipitation change, are in good agreement with the geologic records. Model results show that relative to the present day (PD) climate, the temperature over China increased in the mid-Holocene, and the increase in summer is more than that in winter. The summer monsoon strengthened over the eastern China north of 30°N, and the winter monsoon weakened over the whole eastern China; the precipitation increased over the west part of China, North China, and Northeast China, and decreased over the south part of China.The sensitive experiments indicate that changes in the global climate (large-scale circulation background),vegetation, earth orbital parameter, and CO2 concentration led to the mid-Holocene climate change relative to the PD climate, and changes in precipitation, temperature and wind fields were mainly affected by change of the large-scale circulation background, especially with its effect on precipitation exceeding 50%. Changes in vegetation resulted in increasing of temperature in both winter and summer over China, especially over eastern China; furthermore, its effect on precipitation in North China accounts for 25% of the total change.Change in the orbital parameter produced the larger seasonal variation of solar radiation in the mid-Holocene than the PD, which resulted in declining of temperature in winter and increasing in summer; and also had an important effect on precipitation with an effect equivalent to vegetation in Northeast China and North China. During the mid-Holocene, CO2 content was only 280×10-6, which reduced temperature in a very small magnitude. Therefore, factors affecting the mid-Holocene climate change over China from strong to weak are large-scale circulation pattern, vegetation, earth orbital parameter, and CO2 concentration.  相似文献

从地层、构造力学体系、岩浆岩分布、地球物理、地球化学特征等方面分析,提出前泥盆纪在炎陵—蓝山构造岩浆岩带两侧的地质体是分离的。通过对地块拼贴时力的作用和平面变形的分析,认为炎陵—蓝山北东向构造岩浆岩带是两个地块的拼贴线;郴州—邵阳北西向构造岩浆岩带是地块拼贴时的应力集中带,两带交汇于此,是千里山—骑田岭矿集区形成的最本质的原因。  相似文献

深层土壤与表层土壤中元素质量分数的差异被一些学者归因于表层土壤受人为污染所致。文中通过解析山西太原盆地深、表层潮土中Hg、Cd、Pb、As的地球化学分布特征,并通过对比研究区与基本保持清洁状态的源区土壤中相应元素质量分数变化特征,论述了成壤过程中元素的自然分异作用是造成深、表层潮土中Hg、Cd、Pb、As质量分数显著差异的主要原因,以及人为污染仅在局部地区造成Hg、Cd、Pb、As在表层潮土中富集的观点。通过求解太原盆地表层潮土中Hg、Cd、Pb、As地球化学背景值的实例,详细介绍了以深层土壤元素的地球化学背景为参照系,运用相关分析和累积频率分析求解表层土壤元素地球化学背景值的方法。  相似文献

南秦岭石泉北部中酸性岩脉发育,大部分岩脉与地层之间为构造接触关系,其形成时代及与区域金矿化的关系一直存在疑问。本研究采集石泉北部将军河地区中酸性岩脉13件,通过详细野外观察与室内鉴定,确定岩脉的岩性主要为闪长岩类。主量元素分析数据表明闪长岩的SiO_2含量为53.19%~68.48%,铝饱和指数A/CNK值为0.67~1.28,里特曼指数σ值介于1.4~2.93之间;微量元素分析数据表明中酸性闪长岩脉的稀土总量较低(ΣREE=44.54×10~(-6)~253.23×10~(-6)),REE球粒陨石标准化图呈轻、重稀土高度分馏的右倾型(HREE/LREE=6.15~14.87,(La/Yb)_N=5.97~38.67),具有弱负Eu异常(δEu=0.68~0.88);微量元素蛛网图显示富集大离子亲石元素(Ba、K、Sr)与高场强元素(Zr、Hf),相对亏损高场强元素(HREE、Ti、P、Th),岩脉可能来自于与消减作用有关的下地壳物质重熔。闪长岩脉的单颗粒锆石U-Pb年龄为771.9±3.4Ma,与汉南杂岩、安康北部的凤凰山内新元古代的岩浆活动具有同步性,指示区域伸展裂解的构造背景。根据野外填图推测南秦岭石泉北部将军河地区新元古代的岩脉对金矿的形成没有直接关系。  相似文献
