天文视点     

何锐思柯文采  赵开羿译 《天文爱好者》2011,(10):20-23

“一生只有一次”——震撼人心的恒星爆炸 超新星的搜寻者最近几周显得相当活跃。然而,当我们考虑到不断深入地认识恒星的消亡理论背后隐藏的巨大的益处的时候,这种表现也就变得不奇怪了。一方面,超新星是星系中众多最明亮的独立天体中的一员,在星系中超新星的风头有时候甚至盖过了整个星系——因此它们可以在很遥远的距离外被观测到。  相似文献

银河系卫星星系研究进展     

康熙 《天文学进展》2011,29(1):1-18

对银河系内卫星星系进行全面的"人口普查"具有重要的意义。目前已经发现了二十几个卫星星系,其光度范围分布很广,最暗的矮星系比球状星体还暗。叙述了卫星星系的光度分布、空间分布和动力学性质。总结了观测和理论研究进展,并讨论了星流和伽玛射线在研究银河系结构和暗物质性质方面的贡献。表明了卫星星系的统计分布能用来很好地限制冷暗物质理论和星系形成的相关物理过程,同时指出当前研究的局限性和可能的发展方向。  相似文献   

星系的基本面     

王彩虹  王有芬  沈世银  邵正义 《天文学进展》2011,29(1):46-59

基本面最早是在早型星系中发现的一种经验标度律,它是一个关于星系的有效半径、中心速度弥散度和有效半径内的平均面亮度之间的紧密相关关系.基本面对早型星系的形成机制、动力学演化理论等提出了很强的观测约束;不仅如此,它还可作为独立的星系距离测定方法,用于哈勃常数的定标和星系本动速度场的测量.对早型星系基本面的研究进展做了简要评...  相似文献   

M 87核区X射线辐射起源的研究     

于照茏 《天文学进展》2011,29(1)

利用耦合的吸积-喷流模型,对巨椭圆星系M 87(NGC 4486)核区的高分辨率观测到的多波段能谱分布进行了研究,重点是核区的X射线辐射起源问题.研究结果表明,M 87核区的X射线辐射是由喷流主导的,而不是此前认为的由径移主导的吸积流(ADAFs)主导的.  相似文献   

Winding sense of galaxies around the local supercluster     

Binil Aryal 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2011,11(3)

We present an analysis of the winding sense(S and Z-shapes) of 1 621 field galaxies that have radial velocity between 3 000 km s-1 and 5 000 km s-1.The preferred alignments of S-and Z-shaped galaxies are studied using chi-square,autocorrelation and Fourier series tests.We classify all the galaxies into 32 subsamples and notice a good agreement between the position angle(PA) distribution of the S-and Zshaped galaxies.The homogeneous distribution of the S-and Z-shaped galaxies is more noticeable for the late-...  相似文献   

First photometric study of the eclipsing binary PS Persei     

Jin-Zhao Yuan 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2011,11(2)

CCD photometric observations of the eclipsing binary PS Persei (PS Per) were obtained on two consecutive days in 2009.The 2003 version of the WilsonDevinney code was used to analyze the first complete light curves in the V and R bands.It is found that PS Per is a short-period Algol-type binary with the less massive component completely filling its inner critical Roche lobe.The mass ratio of q=0.518 and the orbital inclination of i=89.86° are obtained.In addition,based on all available times of primary light...  相似文献   

Solar sail time-optimal interplanetary transfer trajectory design     

Sheng-Ping Gong  Yun-Feng Gao  Jun-Feng Li School of Aerospace  Tsinghua University  Beijing  China 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2011,(8)

The fuel consumption associated with some interplanetary transfer trajectories using chemical propulsion is not affordable. A solar sail is a method of propulsion that does not consume fuel. Transfer time is one of the most pressing problems of solar sail transfer trajectory design. This paper investigates the time-optimal interplanetary transfer trajectories to a circular orbit of given inclination and radius. The optimal control law is derived from the principle of maximization. An indirect method is used...  相似文献   

Photometric analysis of V30 of open cluster NGC 7789     

Yellapragada Ravi Kiron  Kandulapati Sriram  Pasagada Vivekananda Rao 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2011,(9)

We present the photometric solutions of the variable star V30 that is in the foreground of intermediate open cluster NGC 7789.The observations were done in the V passband using the 2 m telescope at the IUCAA-Girawali Observatory in India.The analysis is done using the Wilson-Devinney Code (2003) and the fitted light curve is presented.The photometric solutions reveal a W-subtype contact configuration.The photometric mass ratio is found to be 0.395 and the absolute masses and radii for the components are ded...  相似文献   

On pulsar-driven mass ejection in low-mass X-ray binaries     

Lei Fu  Xiang-Dong Li 《中国天文和天体物理学报》2011,(12)

There is accumulating evidence for mass ejection in low-mass X-ray binaries(LMXBs)driven by radio pulsar activity during X-ray quiescence.We consider the condition for mass ejection by comparing the radiation pressure from a millisecond pulsar,and the gas pressure at the inner Lagrange point or at the surrounding accretion disk.We calculate the critical spin period of the pulsar below which mass ejection is allowed.Combining with the evolution of the mass transfer rate,we present constraints on the orbital ...  相似文献
