由束流不稳定性直接放大电磁波的弱磁化修正     

黄光力  王德焴  毛定一 《中国天文和天体物理学报》1995,(2)

本文在文［３］的基础上，考虑背景电磁波色散方程的弱磁化修正，在１＜ωｐｅ／Ωｅ＜１０的范围内（主委适用于太阳高日冕、行星际空间及星系射电喷流等），计算了由束流不稳定性直接放大正常模和反常模的增长率。增长率随着频率、ωｐｅ／Ωｅ、电磁波传播角以及非热电子入射角等参数的变化规律，和忽略磁场时的结果与文［３］大体相同，但是反常模的增长，则随着ωｐｅ／Ωｅ的增大而受到明显的抑制，因而在本文参数范围内，束流不稳定性所放大的电磁波以正常模为主，可以解释太阳ＩＩＩ型爆发和星系射电喷流的偏振性质。  相似文献

M 87大尺度喷流的多波段研究     

孟大敏  王春成  周宏岩 《天文研究与技术》2007,4(3):221-225

射电星系M87的大尺度喷流在射电、光学和X波段都已经具备高分辨率的成像观测和频谱观测。其各个节点的宽波段连续谱目前被认为是同步辐射主导的。文章采用相对论性电子同步辐射的Kardashev-Pacholczyk模型,对各节点的多波段连续谱进行了独立的最佳拟和,从而得到相应的多普勒因子。此外进一步结合各节点的视超光速运动的观测数据,导出了不同节点整体运动的Lorentz因子和对观测者的视角。计算结果表明,M87的大尺度喷流具有一定程度的弯曲,其整体动力学行为是减速的。  相似文献

Environmental dependence of dark matter halo growth – I. Halo merger rates     

Onsi Fakhouri  Chung-Pei Ma 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,394(4):1825-1840

In an earlier paper, we quantified the mean merger rate of dark matter haloes as a function of redshift z , descendant halo mass M ₀, and progenitor halo mass ratio ξ using the Millennium simulation of the Λ cold dark matter cosmology. Here, we broaden that study and investigate the dependence of the merger rate of haloes on their surrounding environment. A number of local mass overdensity variables, both including and excluding the halo mass itself, are tested as measures of a halo's environment. The simple functional dependence on   z , M ₀  , and ξ of the merger rate found in our earlier work, is largely preserved in different environments, but we find that the overall amplitude of the merger rate has a strong positive correlation with the environmental densities. For galaxy-mass haloes, we find mergers to occur ∼2.5 times more frequently in the densest regions than in voids at both   z = 0  and higher redshifts. Higher mass haloes show similar trends. We present a fitting form for this environmental dependence that is a function of both mass and local density and valid out to   z = 2  . The amplitude of the progenitor (or conditional) mass function shows a similar correlation with local overdensity, suggesting that the extended Press–Schechter model for halo growth needs to be modified to incorporate environmental effects.  相似文献   

NGC 2587: a sparse open cluster projected on to a populous star field     

Andrés E. Piatti  Juan J. Clariá  Andrea V. Ahumada 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,397(2):1073-1083

We present CCD photometry in the Johnson U , B and V and Kron–Cousins I passbands for the open cluster NGC 2587. The sample consists of 4406 stars reaching down to   V ∼ 21.0  . We developed a new method to clean statistically the colour–magnitude diagrams. NGC 2587 appears to be a sparse, relatively bright open cluster, with a few tens of members projected on to a populous star field. The comparatively bright F7/8 II type star HD 70927, located close to the cluster centre, seems not to be a member. Our analysis suggests that NGC 2587 is slightly younger than the Hyades and probably of solar metallicity. A cluster radius of roughly 8 arcmin was estimated from the radial stellar density profile. From 18 probable cluster members with measured proper motions, we derive the following mean values for NGC 2587:  μ_α=−4.3 ± 3.6 mas yr⁻¹  and  μ_δ=−2.5 ± 3.4 mas yr⁻¹  . Adopting the theoretical metal content   Z = 0.02  , which provides the best global fit, we derive a cluster age of  500⁺⁶⁰₋₅₀  . Simultaneously, colour excesses   E ( B − V ) = 0.10  and   E ( V − I ) = 0.15  and an apparent distance modulus of   V − M_V = 12.50  are obtained. The interstellar extinction in the cluster direction is found to follow the normal law. NGC 2587 is located at a distance of (2.70 ± 0.70) kpc from the Sun and ∼9.8 kpc from the Galactic centre.  相似文献   

The AGNS and their host galaxies as seen in the mid-infrared     

O. Laurent  I.F. Mirabel  P. Gallais  M. Sauvage  L. Vigroux  C. Cesarsky  V. Charmandaris 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1999,266(1-2):175-180

We present a new diagnostic diagram based on ISOCAMspectra (5-16 m) to distinguish the emission inducedby the active galactic nucleus (AGN) from that associated with thestar formation activity. This diagnostic based on the mid-IRcontinuum and the Unidentified Infrared Band (UIB) intensity allowsus to estimate the relative importance of the three components (HIIregions, diffuse/photo-dissociation regions (PDRs), and AGN) contained ingalaxy mid-infrared emission. In AGN spectra, we confirm the absenceof UIBs presumably photodissociated by the X-UV radiation field. Inaddition, a non-negligible continuum below 9 m commonlyassociated with emission from hot dust is present in AGNs. Adiagnostic diagram derived from these two results can be used fordetecting obscured AGNs embedded in a large concentration of dust.  相似文献
