Incoherent Cerenkov process as a source of low-latitude VLF emissions     

Ram Prakash  D.P. Singh  Birbal Singh 《Planetary and Space Science》1979,27(7):959-962

Employing a realistic ionospheric model and a suitable energetic electron spectra, detailed power calculations are carried out to confirm the generation mechanism of low-latitude VLF emissions observed both in the satellites and on the ground. Raypaths of the radiated waves are also calculated to account for the attenuation and spreading losses. It is shown that 100 eV?1 keV electrons radiating incoherently in the Cerenkov mode are the main sources of these emissions.  相似文献   

Heat and mass transfer of a viscous heat generating fluid with Hall currents     

P. C. Ram  S. S. Singh  R. K. Jain 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,168(2):209-216

A study of natural convection in hydrodynamic flows of a viscous heat generating fluid in the presence of Hall currents and variable suction has been carried out. The governing equations for the magnetohydrodynamic fluid flow and heat transfer are solved. The effects of Hall currentm and heat source parameter on the velocity and temperature distributions are discussed.  相似文献   

Explosive hydrogen-burning model of solar flares     

L. Manihar Singh  L. Randhoni Devi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,172(2):315-316

A model of solar flare is proposed, taking into account the high temperature (10⁹K) produced by the shock wave generated by the hydromagnetic wave at the junction of sunspot and the area just outside it and subsequent explosive hydrogen burning, producing the desired 10^28–29 ergs of a solar flare.  相似文献   

YO molecule in the sun     

Markandey Singh  Jai Prakash Chaturvedi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,165(1):119-129

Vibrational transition probabilities, namely Franck—Condon factors and -centroids have been evaluated by an approximate analytical method for the (A–X), (A–X), and (A–X) system of YO molecule. Morse potential energy curves forX ²⁺,A ²₂,A²₂, andA²₂, states of YO have been constructed using the latest spectroscopic data. The value of -centroids for the band have been found to decrease linearly with the corresponding wavelengths. We show results for two new transitions of (A–X) and (A–X) and five new bands of (A–X) of YO in the umbral spectrum of the Sun.  相似文献   

Bianchi II,VIII, and IX viscous fluid cosmology     

A. Banerjee  Abhik Kumar Sanyal  Subenoy Chakraborty 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,166(2):259-268

In this paper we study the exact solutions for a viscous fluid distribution in Bianchi II, VIII, and IX models. The metric is simplified by assuming a relationship between the coefficients of the metric tensor. Solutions are obtained in two special cases: in one an additional assumption is made where the matter density and the expansion scalar have a definite relation and in the other a barotropic equation of state of the formp= is assumed. While the Bianchi II solutions are already found in the literature the other two classes of solutions are apparently new.  相似文献   

Morse pe-curves of AlH     

Markandey Singh  Jai Prakash Chaturvedi 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,173(1):27-30

Morse potential energy curves forC ¹⁺ andC ¹⁺ of AlH have been constructed. The energy values have been found to increase from vibrational levels 0 to 6 and decrease from vibrational levels 7 to 50 with the corresponding centre and half-width in the stateC ¹⁺. InC ¹⁺ state the energy values have been found to increase from vibrational levels 0 to 28 and decrease from vibrational levels 29 to 50 with the corresponding centre and half-width.  相似文献   

Structure of the marine boundary layer over north western Indian Ocean during 1983 summer monsoon     

M. R. Ramesh Kumar  Y. Sadhuram  G. S. Michael  L. V. Gangadhara Rao 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1990,52(1-2):177-191

The spatial variability of the structure of the lower troposphere over the northwestern Indian Ocean for the period 12th July to 2nd September, 1983 has been studied using upper air data collected during the first scientific cruise of ORV Sagar Kanya.An analysis of thermodynamic structure and kinematics of the marine boundary layer for different zonal and meridional sections revealed the following features: (a) Temperature and humidity inversions were generally absent over the study area except over a few locations in the western region; (b) Large-scale subsidence was found over the central equatorial Indian Ocean; (c) The convective activity over the western Indian Ocean was found to be moderately suppressed as compared to the eastern region; (d) The zonal and meridional components of winds along the equator and 10° N zonal section exhibited a mirror-image-like distribution.  相似文献   

Rectangular tank surface aerators: scale up criteria and energy conservation     

A. R. Rao  B. Kumar 《International Journal of Environmental Science and Technology》2006,3(4):425-433

Surface aeration experiments were conducted in two types of rectangular tanks of aspect ratios i.e., length to width ratio (L/W) of 1.5 and 2 and developed simulation equations to correlate the oxygen transfer coefficient, k and power number, P₀ with a parameter governing theoretical power per unit volume X. The parameter X is defined as equal to F^4/3R^1/3, where F and R are impellers’ Froude and Reynolds numbers respectively). Results have shown that the P₀ can not be simulated singularly with either Reynolds number, R or Froude number, F, which results in scale-effects; there appears to be a need to incorporate the effects of both F and R. It was found that P⁰ is uniquely related to X for rectangular aeration tanks of both aspect ratios, however, such relationships are different depending upon the aspect ratios. It has been demonstrated that energy can be saved substantially if the aeration tanks are run at relatively higher input powers. It is also demonstrated that smaller sized tanks are more energy conservative and economical when compared to big sized tanks, while aerating the same volume of water, and at the same time by maintaining a constant input power in all the tanks irrespective of their size.  相似文献
