Axially-symmetric quasi-neutral charged dust distributions in general relativity     

Ram  Shri 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1985,114(2):329-333

A solution of Einstein-Maxwell equations representing a distribution of equal and opposite charges moving in circles in opposite directions around thez-axis is obtained. In a particular case the solution reduces to the special case of Levi-Civita metric for a line-mass placed along thez-axis. The asymptotic behaviour of the solution is also discussed.  相似文献   

Thermosolutal instability of compressible hall plasma in porous medium     

R. C. Sharma  Trilok Chand 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1989,155(2):301-310

The thermosolutal instability of a plasma in porous medium in the presence of a vertical magnetic field is considered to include the effects of compressibility and Hall currents. The effects of stable solute gradient and compressibility are found to be stabilizing and the Hall currents have a destabilizing effect. The system is stable for (C _p/g)<1;C _p, , andg denoting specific heat at constant pressure, uniform temperature gradient, and acceleration due to gravity, respectively. In contrast to the non-oscillatory modes in the absence of magnetic field and stable solute gradient, the presence of magnetic field (and, hence, Hall currents) and stable solute gradient introduce oscillatory modes for (C _p/g)>1. The case of overstability is also studied wherein the necessary conditions for the existence of overstability are obtained.  相似文献   

Cosmological models in certain scalar-tensor theories     

Shri Ram  J. K. Singh 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1995,234(2):325-334

Exact solutions of Einstein field equations are obtained in the scalar-tensor theories developed by Saez and Ballester (1985) and Lau and Prokhovnik (1986) when the line-element has the form $$ds^2 = \exp \left( {2h} \right)dt^2 - \exp \left( {2A} \right)\left( {dx^2 + dy^2 } \right) - \exp \left( {2B} \right)dz^2 $$ whereh, A andB are functions oft only. The solutions are spatially homogeneous, locally rotationally symmetric and admit a Bianchi I group of motions on hypersurfacest = constant. The dynamical behaviours of these models have also been discussed.  相似文献   

Estimation of Above Ground Biomass for Central Indian Deciduous Forests Using ALOS PALSAR L-Band Data     

Kiran Chand Thumaty  Rakesh Fararoda  Suresh Middinti  Rajashekar Gopalakrishnan  C. S. Jha  V. K. Dadhwal 《Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing》2016,44(1):31-39

Reliable and accurate estimates of tropical forest above ground biomass (AGB) are important to reduce uncertainties in carbon budgeting. In the present study we estimated AGB of central Indian deciduous forests of Madhya Pradesh (M.P.) state, India, using Advanced Land Observing Satellite – Phased Array type L-band Synthetic Aperture Radar (ALOS-PALSAR) L-band data of year 2010 in conjunction with field based AGB estimates using empirical models. Digital numbers of gridded 1?×?1° dual polarization (HH & HV) PALSAR mosaics for the study area were converted to normalized radar cross section (sigma naught - σ⁰). A total of 415 sampling plots (0.1 ha) data collected over the study area during 2009–10 was used in the present study. Plot-level AGB estimates using volume equations representative to the study area were computed using field inventory data. The plot-level AGB estimates were empirically modeled with the PALSAR backscatter information in HH, HV and their ratios from different forest types of the study area. The HV backscatter information showed better relation with field based AGB estimates with a coefficient of determination (R²) of 0.509 which was used to estimate spatial AGB of the study area. Results suggested a total AGB of 367.4 Mt for forests of M.P. state. Further, validation of the model was carried out using observed vs. predicted AGB estimates, which suggested a root mean square error (RMSE) of ±19.32 t/ha. The model reported robust and defensible relation for observed vs. predicted AGB values of the study area.  相似文献

Probing Magnetic Fields with Square Kilometre Array and its Precursors     

Subhashis Roy  Sharanya Sur  Kandaswamy Subramanian  Arun Mangalam  T. R. Seshadri  Hum Chand 《Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy》2016,37(4):42

Origin of magnetic fields, its structure and effects on dynamical processes in stars to galaxies are not well understood. Lack of a direct probe has remained a problem for its study. The first phase of Square Kilometre Array (SKA-I), will have almost an order of magnitude higher sensitivity than the best existing radio telescope at GHz frequencies. In this contribution, we discuss specific science cases that are of interest to the Indian community concerned with astrophysical turbulence and magnetic fields. The SKA-I will allow observations of a large number of background sources with detectable polarization and measure their Faraday depths (FDs) through the Milky Way, other galaxies and their circum-galactic mediums. This will probe line-of-sight magnetic fields in these objects well and provide field configurations. Detailed comparison of observational data (e.g., pitch angles in spirals) with models which consider various processes giving rise to field amplification and maintenance (e.g., various types of dynamo models) will then be possible. Such observations will also provide the coherence scale of the fields and its random component through RM structure function. Measuring the random component is important to characterize turbulence in the medium. Observations of FDs with redshift will provide important information on magnetic field evolution as a function of redshift. The background sources could also be used to probe magnetic fields and its coherent scale in galaxy clusters and in bridges formed between interacting galaxies. Other than FDs, sensitive observations of synchrotron emission from galaxies will provide complimentary information on their magnetic field strengths in the sky plane. The core shift measurements of AGNs can provide more precise measurements of magnetic field in the sub parsec region near the black hole and its evolution. The low band of SKA-I will also be useful to study circularly polarized emission from Sun and comparing various models of field configurations with observations.  相似文献   

Anisotropic Bianchi Type-II Cosmological Models in Self-Creation Cosmology     

Shri Ram  C.P. Singh 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1997,257(2):287-292

Totally anisotropic Bianchi type-II cosmological solutions are presented in Barber's second self-creation theory of gravitation both in vacuum and in the presence of stiff-matter. The corresponding cosmological models have no finite singularity. The stiff-matter model gives essentially an empty universe for large time. Some physical and kinematical properties of the models are discussed. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
