Turbulent diffusion in a shearing oscillatory flow     

Zhang Fagao  Takashi Ichiye 《中国海洋湖沼学报》1986,4(2):127-138

The diffusion in a shearing oscillatory flow from an instantaneous surface point source is considered. An analytical solution is obtained by Fourier transform. The results show that, for three dimensional diffusion in an oscillatory flow with constant shear, the distribution of the contaminant follows the multivariate Gaussian distribution rule. When the frequency is very high, or the time very short, the shear does not influence the diffusion. For moderate values of time, there are fluctuations with longitudinal variance. For large values of time the longitudinal variance increases as t, and the peak concentration decreases as t^−1.5, which are faster than those in a flow without shear, but much slower than those in a steady flow, where the longitudinal variance increases as t³ and the peak concentration decreases as t^−2.5. The contaminant patch is elongated in the longitudinal direction of the shear flow and moves back and forth with the water motion.

We review the main characteristics of the symbiotic system AG Draconis, with special emphasis on its optical and X-ray variations. We also discuss the X-ray to visual energy distribution during quiescence and outburst and describe our spectroscopic and X-ray observations during the 2003 outburst. Based on X-ray observations collected with the XMM–Newton Observatory, on INES data from the IUE satellite, and on optical spectra collected with the Asiago–Cima Ekar, Bologna–Loiano and La Palma–Galileo Italian telescopes.  相似文献   

Simulations of a giant hybrid air shower detector     

B. R. Dawson  Y. Dai H.  P. Sommers  S. Yoshida 《Astroparticle Physics》1996,5(3-4):239-247

We have used Monte Carlo simulations to investigate the capabilities of a giant air shower observatory designed to detect showers initiated by cosmic rays with energies exceeding 10¹⁹ eV. The observatory is to consist of an array of detectors that will characterise the air shower at ground level, and optical detectors to measure the fluorescence light emitted by the shower in the atmosphere. Using these detectors together in a ‘hybrid’ configuration, we find that precise geometrical reconstruction of the shower axis is possible, leading to excellent resolution in energy. The technique is also shown to provide very good reconstruction below 10¹⁹ eV, at energies where the ground array is not fully efficient.  相似文献   

Simulations of deep pencil-beam redshift surveys

We create mock pencil-beam redshift surveys from very large cosmological N -body simulations of two cold dark matter (CDM) cosmogonies, an Einstein–de Sitter model ( τ CDM) and a flat model with Ω₀=0.3 and a cosmological constant (ΛCDM). We use these to assess the significance of the apparent periodicity discovered by Broadhurst et al. Simulation particles are tagged as 'galaxies' so as to reproduce observed present-day correlations. They are then identified along the past light-cones of hypothetical observers to create mock catalogues with the geometry and the distance distribution of the Broadhurst et al. data. We produce 1936 (2625) quasi-independent catalogues from our τ CDM (ΛCDM) simulation. A couple of large clumps in a catalogue can produce a high peak at low wavenumbers in the corresponding one-dimensional power spectrum, without any apparent large-scale periodicity in the original redshift histogram. Although the simulated redshift histograms frequently display regularly spaced clumps, the spacing of these clumps varies between catalogues and there is no 'preferred' period over our many realizations. We find only a 0.72 (0.49) per cent chance that the highest peak in the power spectrum of a τ CDM (ΛCDM) catalogue has a peak-to-noise ratio higher than that in the Broadhurst et al. data. None of the simulated catalogues with such high peaks shows coherently spaced clumps with a significance as high as that of the real data. We conclude that in CDM universes, the regularity on a scale of ∼130  h ⁻¹ Mpc observed by Broadhurst et al. has a priori probability well below 10⁻³.  相似文献   

Geochemistry of Gneiss-Granulite transformation in the “incipient charnockite” zones of southern India     

M. Yoshida  M. Santosh  H. Shirahata 《Mineralogy and Petrology》1991,45(1):69-83

Summary Upper amphibolite facies gneisses in the southern Indian Shield show local transformation into veins, clots and patches of orthopyroxene-bearing dry granulites (incipient charnockites). Depending upon the protolith composition, these desiccated zones are classified into ortho- and para-charnockites and have developed within rocks of distinct mineralogy and chemistry at different time intervals through the structurally-controlled influx of carbon dioxide-rich fluids. Our geochemical investigations at five critical quarry sections indicate that the incipient charnockites have undepleted chemistry and very low K/Rb values. In the paracharnockite localities, where granulite formation is characterized by consumption of garnet, biotite and quartz to produce orthopyroxene, loss of Rb and Ba and enrichment of Ti are observed. In contrast, the orthocharnockite localities show marked LILE enrichment with gain of K, Rb and Ba and loss of CaO, suggesting extensive replacement of plagioclase in the gneisses by K-feldspar in the charnockite through K-Na-Ca exchange reactions with influxing carbonic fluids. The marked depletion in Fe, Mg, Ti and P in these rocks correlates with progressive dissolution of hornblende, biotite, magnetite and accessory apatite. Our study indicates that gneiss to granulite transformation, even if on a local scale, is not an isochemical phenomenon, but attended by distinct element mobilities, although they are contrastingly different from the geochemical trends in some regional high grade terrains.

Geochemie von Gneiss-Granulit-Übergängen in den Incipient Charnockite Zonen von Süd-Indien

Zusammenfassung Gneise der oberen Amphibolit-Fazies im Südteil des Indischen Schildes zeigen lokal Umwandlungen in Adern, and unregelmäßigen Bereichen von orthopyroxen-führenden trockenen Granuliten (Incipient Charnockites). In Abhängigkeit von der Zusammensetzung des Ausgangsgesteins werden diese Zonen in Ortho- und Paracharnockite eingeteilt. Sie entwickelten sich in Gesteinen von charakteristischer mineralogischer und chemischer Zusammensetzung zu verschiedenen Zeit-Intervallen durch die tektonisch kontrollierte Zufuhr von kohlendioxid-reichen Fluiden. Unsere geochemischen Untersuchungen an fünf strategisch ausgewählten Steinbruchen zeigen, daß die Incipient Charnockite eine nicht verarmte chemische Zusammensetzung und sehr niedrige K/Rb Werte haben. In den Paracharnockit-Lokalitäten, wo Granulitbildung charakterisiert wird durch das Verschwinden von Granat, Biotit und Quartz, aus denen Orthopyroxene gebildet werden, ist Verlust von Rb und Ba und Anreicherung an Ti zu beobachten. Im Gegensatz dazu zeigen die Orthocharnockite eindeutige LILE Anreicherung mit Zunahme von K, Rb, und Ba und Verlust von Ca0. Dies weist auf extensiven Ersatz von Plagioklas in den Gneisen durch K-Feldspat in den Charnockiten durch K-Na-Ca Austausch-Reaktionen mit zugeführten C0₂-Fluiden hin. Die deutliche Verarmung an Fe, Mg, Ti und P in diesen Gesteinen wird mit zunehmender Auflösung von Hornblende, Biotit, Magnetit und akzessorischem Apatit erKlärt. Unsere Untersuchungen zeigen, daß die Gneis-Granulit Transformation auch im lokalen Maßstab nicht ein isochemisches Phänomen ist, sondern durch charakteristische Elementtransporte charakterisiert wird. Diese unterscheiden sich jedoch deutlich von den geochemischen Trends, die in einigen regional-metamorphen high grade terrains zu beobachten sind.[/p]

Mineralogical characterization of a unique material having heavy oxygen isotope anomaly in matrix of the primitive carbonaceous chondrite Acfer 094     

Yusuke Seto  Naoya Sakamoto  Takashi Kaito  Hisayoshi Yurimoto 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2008,72(11):2723-2734

We report the mineral compositions and micro-texture of the isotopically anomalous (δ^17,18O_SMOW ∼ +180‰) Fe-S-Ni-O material recently discovered in matrix of the primitive carbonaceous chondrite Acfer 094 [Sakamoto N., Seto Y., Itoh S., Kuramoto K., Fujino K., Nagashima K., Krot A. N. and Yurimoto H. (2007) Oxygen isotope evidence for remnants of the early solar system primordial water. Science317, 231-233]. Synchrotron radiation X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy studies indicate that this material consists of the symplectitically intergrown magnetite (Fe₃O₄) and pentlandite (Fe_5.7Ni_3.3S₈) with magnetite/pentlandite volume ratio of ∼2.3. Magnetite forms column-shaped grains (10-30 nm in diameter and 100-200 nm in length); pentlandite occurs as worm-shaped grains or aggregates of grains 100-300 nm in size between magnetite crystals. Although both the X-ray diffraction and electron energy loss spectra support identification of iron oxide as magnetite, the electron diffraction patterns show that magnetite has a weak 3-fold superstructure, possibly due to ordering of vacancies. We infer that the isotopically anomalous symplectite formed by sulfurization and oxidization of metal grains either in the solar nebula or on an icy planetesimal. The intersite cation distribution of pentlandite suggests that timescale of oxidation was no longer than 1000 years.  相似文献   

Possible Density Change of the Origin of North Pacific Intermediate Water Due to Double Diffusion in the Mixed Water Region     

Ryuichiro?InoueEmail author  Jiro?Yoshida 《Journal of Oceanography》2005,61(5):871-883

In this study we test Talley's hypothesis that Oyashio winter mixed-layer water (26.5–26.6σ _θ) increases its density to produce the North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) salinity minimum (26.7– 26.8σ_θ) in the Mixed Water Region, assuming a combination of cabbeling and double diffusion. The possible density change of Oyashio winter mixed-layer water is discussed using an instantaneous ratio of the change of temperature and salinity along any particular intrusion (R _l ). We estimate the range of R _l ^DD required to convert Oyashio winter mixed-layer water to the NPIW salinity minimum due to double diffusion, and then assume double-diffusive intrusions as this conversion mechanism. A double-diffusive intrusion model is used to estimate R _l ^DD in a situation where salt fingering dominates vertical mixing, as well as to determine whether Oyashio winter mixed-layer water can become the NPIW salinity minimum. Possible density changes are estimated from the model R _l ^DD by assuming the amount of density change due to cabbeling. From these results, we conclude that Oyashio winter mixed-layer water contributes to a freshening of the lighter layer of the NPIW salinity minimum (around 26.70σ_θ) in the MWR.  相似文献   

Decadal Variability of Subsurface Temperature in the Central North Pacific     

Satoshi Sugimoto  Takashi Yoshida  Tadashi Ando 《Journal of Oceanography》2003,59(6):945-955

Decadal variability of subsurface temperature in the North Pacific has been investigated. Two dominant regions were found; the central subarctic region (CSa) and the north-eastern subtropical region (NESt). In CSa, cooling (warming) of wintertime subsurface temperature corresponds to the large (small) temperature gradient and southward (northward) shift of subsurface temperature front, associated with the increase (decrease) of positive wind stress curl and the southward (northward) shift of curl τ zero line with 2 years delay. It is suggested that the relocation of subtropical-subarctic boundary plays an important role. In NESt, importance of heat flux through the sea surface and heat divergence in the Ekman layer is also discussed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
