The activities of comets related to their aging and origin     

Fred L. Whipple 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1992,54(1-3):1-11

Two indices have been developed for the purpose of comparing the natures of various classes of comets. The first is the Activity Index (AI), measuring the inherent magnitude increase in brightness from great solar distances to maximum near perihelion. The second, or Volatility Index (VI), measures the variation in magnitude near perihelion. Tentative determinations of these two indices are derived from observations by Max Beyer over more than 30 years for long-period (L-P) and short-period (S-P) comets near perihelion and from other homogeneous sources. AI determinations are made for 32 long-period (L-P) comets and for 14 short-period (S-P). The range of values of AI is of the order of 3 to 10 magnitudes with a median about 6. An expected strong correlation with perihelion distance q, is found to vary as q ^–2.3. Residuals from a least-square solution (AI) are used for comparing comets of different orbital classes, the standard deviation of a single value of AI is only ±1^m.1 for L-P comets and ±1^m.2 for S-P comets.Among the L-P comets, 19 of period P larger than 10⁴ years yield AI = 0^m.27 ± 0^m.25 compared to 0^m.39 ± 0^m.26 for 13 of period between 10² years and 10⁴ years. This denies any fading with aging among the L-P comets. Also no systematic change with period occurs for the VI index, leading to the same conclusions. Weak correlations are found with the Gas/Dust ratio of comets. No correlations are found between the two indices, nor of either index with near-perihelion magnitudes or orbital inclination.The various data are consistent with a uniform origin for all types of comets, the nuclei being homogeneous on the large scale but quite diverse on a small scale (the order of a fraction of kilometer in extent). Small comets thus may sublimate away entirely, leaving no solid core, while huge comets may develop a less volatile core by radioactive heating and possibly become inactive like asteroids after many S-P revolutions about the Sun. When relatively new, huge comets may be quite active at great solar distances because of volatiles from the core that have refrozen in the outer layers.  相似文献   

陕西华阳川铀多金属矿床黑云母~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar年龄及其地质意义     

何升  李子颖  惠小朝  郭建 《铀矿地质》2016,(3):159-164

笔者采用Ar-Ar测年技术,获得华阳川铀多金属矿床碳酸岩中黑云母~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar坪年龄132.58±0.70 Ma,等时线年龄133.01±0.74 Ma,含黑云母闪石硫化物伟晶岩中黑云母的~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar坪年龄93.72±2.38 Ma,等时线年龄91.49±1.97 Ma。镜下特征显示,铌钛铀矿的形成晚于碳酸岩中的黑云母及含黑云母闪石硫化物伟晶岩中的黑云母。因此,铌钛铀矿的形成时间应晚于93.72±2.38 Ma。这表明成矿带内除了已知存在三叠纪碳酸岩型Mo-Pb矿和白垩纪斑岩型Mo矿的成矿过程之外,还存在早白垩世之后的岩浆热液型U-Nb-Ti成矿过程。  相似文献

Older People and Transitions from Employment to Nonemployment: International Perspectives and Policy Issues     

Anne E. Green 《The Professional geographer》2013,65(1):46-58

The Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) has identified population aging as one of the most important challenges facing OECD countries and has highlighted the need for people to work longer and for job prospects for older workers to be enhanced. This article provides a summary review of a recent OECD report, Ageing and Employment Policies—Live Longer, Work Longer, as a platform to highlight differences between countries in demographic profiles and projections and in patterns of formal labor market participation among older workers. Drawing on selected information from a broader evidence base, it unveils important differences between countries in the scale of demographic and associated labor market challenges. It also explores factors affecting labor market transitions among older workers and age-related and other barriers to paid work among older people, emphasizing the diversity of experience between individuals. Finally, it highlights some strategic challenges for policy.  相似文献   

Breeding,settlement and survival of barnacles at artificially modified shore levels at Leigh,New Zealand     

Penelope A. Luckens 《新西兰海洋与淡水研究杂志》2013,47(4):497-514

The breeding and settlement seasons of the intertidal barnacles Chamaesipho brunnea, C. columna and Elminius plicatus were determined, and experiments using cages on the shore to examine barnacle survival and growth rate at four levels were carried out at Leigh during 1964–66.

Chamaesipho brunnea bred in spring and summer; C. columna and E. plicatus bred throughout the year, but settled intermittently. When protected from predators and from overgrowth by algae, all three species survived at levels lower than normal. At higher levels C. columna, E. modestus, Balanus trigonus and Tetraclita purpuraseens survived for significant periods (C. brunnea occurs naturally higher on the shore than the highest experimental level).  相似文献   

淡水珍珠中文石球粒的发现与成珠机制探讨   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1  

张妮  郭继春  张学云  李加贵 《矿物学报》2005,25(3):307-311

长期以来,珍珠的成因理论很少涉及在超显微镜结构研究基础上的具体的珍珠形成机制。珍珠与贝壳珍珠层具有较多的相似性,但也存在很多不同。本文在对AFM下首次观察到的淡水珍珠表面纳米级的六方最紧密堆积文石球粒的研究基础上,结合XRD分析对珍珠内部矿物成分差异的研究,试图在贝壳珍珠层成因理论的基础上探讨淡水珍珠的成珠机制。本文将珍珠的形成过程初步归纳为碳酸钙凝胶的形成,碳酸钙球粒的形成,矿物相的转变和后继生长四个阶段。  相似文献   

考虑尺寸效应的近海桥梁天然橡胶隔震支座力学性能老化时变规律研究          下载免费PDF全文

李艳敏  马玉宏  赵桂峰 《世界地震工程》2020,(4):169-177

目前天然橡胶支座（NRB）的性能研究大多未考虑尺寸效应,在前期开展的近海桥梁隔震支座和材料老化时变规律研究的基础上,同时考虑支座直径尺寸变化和老化作用时间的影响对NRB的性能进行研究。首先采用ABAQUS有限元软件对不同直径尺寸NRB的性能进行分析,得到了NRB性能随直径尺寸的变化规律;然后结合前期老化作用对NRB及其橡胶材料性能时变规律的影响研究成果,分析了直径尺寸及老化作用时间共同作用下,NRB性能的变化规律,并通过ABAQUS有限元分析,验证了该变化规律的准确性。结果表明:NRB的水平刚度和竖向刚度均随其直径尺寸的增大呈正比例增大趋势;NRB水平刚度比和竖向刚度比均随老化作用时间的增长呈线性增大趋势;且直径为150mm的NRB在实际环境老化60a后,其水平刚度和竖向刚度的增长幅度分别为:30.8%和16.41%,由此可见老化作用时间对NRB水平刚度的影响较显著,对其竖向刚度的影响较小。研究内容可为隔震桥梁结构中支座缩尺模型试验的相关设计提供参考,并为将实验室缩尺橡胶隔震支座的相关成果较好地应用于实际工程计算及设计中提供依据。  相似文献   

东北地区县域老年人口高龄化空间分异特征及驱动因素研究   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1  

王利  刘万波  赵东霞  韩增林  黄馨慧 《地理科学》2019,39(2):267-276

基于2000年和2010年人口普查数据,运用高龄人口比重等指标和空间自相关等方法,分析东北地区县域老年人口高龄化的空间分异特征,并利用地理探测器方法分析其驱动因素。研究表明：① 10 a间高龄化水平升级的态势明显,高龄化区域呈蔓延式扩散。高龄化在省级行政区间、城乡间、民族自治地区与非民族自治地区间、贫困与非贫困地区间存在显著差异。② 10 a间高龄化的变动趋势差异显著,但长期以来形成的高龄化的总体空间格局较为稳定。③ 县际间高龄化呈现较强的正的空间自相关性,空间聚集特征明显。高龄化的空间格局具有以热点区为中心,逐渐向边缘区过渡的“中心-外围”的空间梯度差异特征。④ 高龄化是老年人口年龄结构继承性和迟滞性的体现,自然环境和社会经济是影响高龄化空间分异的基础性因素,可以引导和制约高龄化空间分异的程度和方向。  相似文献   

大菱鲆卵子排放后在卵巢腔内老化特征初探     

宋宗诚  王学颖  薛蕊  肖志忠  马道远  刘清华  李军 《海洋科学》2019,43(7):106-111

为了探明大菱鲆(Scophthalmus maximus)卵子在卵巢腔内老化的原因及特征,采用连续跟踪采卵的方式,通过荧光染色、生理生化指标测定,对不同采卵时间(0, 3, 6, 9, 12 h)的卵子活性氧和脂质过氧化情况(氧化产物丙二醛MDA)、抗氧化系统(超氧化物歧化酶SOD,还原型谷胱甘肽GSH)、卵巢液pH值及受精率和孵化率进行对比研究。结果表明,随着卵子在体内老化时间的延长,其活性氧含量及脂质过氧化程度逐渐升高,活性氧含量及过氧化程度与排卵后卵子老化呈正相关;SOD酶活力,GSH酶活力均显著下降,MDA含量显著提高;受精率和孵化率均显著下降。排卵后6h,孵化率降到2.87%～10.60%,此时的卵质已经极度恶化,不能再继续用于后续的生产中。综上,在卵巢腔中,卵子排放后,随着时间的延长,活性氧含量显著升高,抗氧化能力逐渐下降,受精率和孵化率显著降低,老化逐渐加剧。  相似文献   

老年人口迁移的研究进展及其启示     

万思齐  秦波 《地理科学进展》2022,41(5):922-934

随着中国进入老龄化加速阶段,老年人口的规模不仅快速扩大,而且异地迁移也逐渐增多。老年人口迁移不仅直接影响个体家庭福祉,而且对迁入迁出地的人口结构和社会经济发展产生影响,但目前聚焦于这一现象的学术与政策研究尚有不足。论文从老年人口迁移的空间格局、决策机制和影响效应3个方面梳理既有国内外文献,发现：① 空间格局上,老年人口迁移存在长距离中小城市迁移、长距离大城市迁移、短距离郊区迁移和短距离中心城区迁移4种模式,不同国家、不同发展阶段具有不同特点;② 决策机制上,老年人口迁移意愿受到经济、健康、舒适和归属等需求因素的驱动,而迁移能力则受到生理、经济与社会基础等因素影响;③ 影响效应上,老年人口迁移对个体身心健康、社会融入以及区域的经济社会发展均会产生显著影响。未来研究需要进一步夯实研究的数据和方法基础,并构建符合中国国情的理论框架,从而为积极应对人口老龄化、推动老年友好城乡建设提供科学依据。  相似文献
