CS(J=1–0), C³⁴S(J=1–0), and CH₃OH(1₀–0₀A and E) emission lines in the core region of molecular cloud associated with NGC 7538 have been surveyed at angular resolution of 33. Distribution of CS column density shows two prominent peaks. Both blue and red wings in CS line are most prominent at 30 northwest of IRS 11.Paper presented at the IAU Third Asian-Pacific Regional Meeting, held in Kyoto, Japan, between 30 September–6 October, 1984.This work was carried out under the common use observation program at the Nobeyama Radio Observatory (NRO). NRO, a branch of the Tokyo Astronomical Observatory, University of Tokyo, is a cosmic radio observing facility open to outside users.  相似文献   

Cycladophora davisiana (Radiolaria) in the Okhotsk Sea: A key for reconstructing glacial ocean conditions     

Yusuke Okazaki  Osamu Seki  Takeshi Nakatsuka  Tatsuhiko Sakamoto  Minoru Ikehara  Kozo Takahashi 《Journal of Oceanography》2006,62(5):639-648

Cycladophora davisiana, a radiolarian species dwelling at mesopelagic depths, is known as a representative glacial fauna due to its unique distribution during glacial periods. In the present ocean, abundant production of C. davisiana is only observed in the Okhotsk Sea, indicating an adaptation of C. davisiana for seasonal sea-ice covered conditions. We found pronounced abundant production of C. davisiana during the early to middle Holocene in the Okhotsk Sea, suggesting more favorable conditions for C. davisiana than the present Okhotsk Sea. In order to clarify the reason, oceanographic conditions during the Holocene were reconstructed based on biomarkers, lithogenic grains including ice-rafted debris (IRD), biogenic opal, and total organic carbon (TOC) in two sediment cores from the Okhotsk Sea. These indicators suggest that the pronounced C. davisiana production may be attributed to: 1) a supply to mesopelagic depths under intensified stratification of fine organic particles derived from coccolithophorids, bacteria, and detrital materials; and 2) cold, well-ventilated intermediate water formation.  相似文献   

Microbiological Studies Relevant to a Lobster Introduction into Fatty Basin,British Columbia     

Humitake Seki  Michael Hardon 《Journal of Oceanography》1970,26(1):38-51

Studies in marine microbiology relevant to the cultivation of lobster in Fatty Basin were made. Biomass of bacteria and allied microorganisms in whole seawater column of the basin was very small (2×10⁴ gC), but a large biomass was found in the sediments (3×10⁵ gC). The decomposition of chitin occurred chiefly in the sediments. The rate of decomposition (500 g/day) was approximately half of the rate of production. However, the remaining production was considered not to be involved in the chitin cycle of the basin. This hypothesis was supported by the results of the analysis of the budget of organic matter in the area. Shell disease of lobster caused by chitinoclastic bacteria was detected, although it was not serious. A destructive yeast parasite of crustaceans,Metschnikowia, was collected only from a crab in the basin. This report is dedicated to Professor KenSugawara for his 70 years old anniversary.  相似文献   

Bacteria on petroleum globules in the Philippine sea in January, 1973     

Humitake Seki  Hideshi Abe  Yukuya Yamaguchi  Shun-ei Ichimura 《Journal of Oceanography》1974,30(3):151-156

About 10⁶ of total bacteria (direct microscopic count) or heterotrophic bacteria (colony count with Medium 2216E) and about 10⁴ of petroleumlytic bacteria (oil-oxidizing bacteria) were enumerated per square centimeter of the surface of petroleum globules suspended in the topmost 10 meters of water from a station (22°00.2N, 125°51.9E) in the western North Pacific central water, where about 10⁷ of total bacteria, about 10³ of heterotrophic bacteria and about 10 of petroleumlytic bacteria were enumerated per liter of seawater.  相似文献   

Amorphous interstellar grains: Wavelength dependence of far-infrared emission efficiency     

Junji Seki  Tetsuo Yamamoto 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1980,72(1):79-86

It is shown theoretically that the emission efficiency of amorphous grains with radii smaller than 100 Å has a _-1-dependence in the wavelength region longer than 100 , whereas those of crystalline, metallic, and larger amorphous grains are proportional to _-2 in far infrared. Astrophysical implications of the amorphous grains are discussed.  相似文献

The heterogeneous condensation of interstellar ice grains     

Junji Seki  Hiroichi Hasegawa 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1983,94(1):177-189

Processes of heterogeneous condensation are investigated. We consider the situation that vapor and solid grains of which material is other than that of the vapor coexist and the saturation of the vapor increases with time. If the contact angle of the condensate to the solid is small (?90°), the condensate will be formed as mantles coating the solid grains but only a fraction of the solid grains will be coated by mantles. The ratio of core-mantle grains to bare solid grains in number will be smaller as the density of the vapor and the time scale of saturation increase are large. Actual calculations are made by adopting H₂O ice as the mantle material and magnesium silicate as the core material.  相似文献

Polarization properties of spherical interstellar grains on light scattering     

Masafumi Matsumura  Munezo Seki 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1986,126(1):155-165

On the basis of the Mie theory, the differential cross-section for polarization and the polarization efficiency are calculated for some spherical interstellar grains consisting of ice, silicate, or graphite in the ultraviolet, optical, and near infrared wavelengths. As far as the polarization due to scattering is concerned, these particles scatter light as Rayleigh scattering for 0<x1, wherex is the dimensionless size parameter. The polarization efficienties depend strongly on the value of the imaginary part (m) of the refractive index of grain material whenx1: the efficiency takes a maximum value atx1 and decreases to zero asx approaches zero for the absorbing sphere such as the dielectric particle withm0.1 or the graphite grain in the infrared wavelengths.  相似文献
