Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope observations of an M2.8 flare: Insights into the initiation of a flare–coronal mass ejection event     

Subramanian  Prasad  Ananthakrishnan  S.  Janardhan  P.  Kundu  M.R.  White  S.M.  Garaimov  V.I. 《Solar physics》2003,218(1-2):247-259

We present the first observations of a solar flare with the GMRT. An M2.8 flare observed at 1060 MHz with the GMRT on 17 November 2001 was associated with a prominence eruption observed at 17 GHz by the Nobeyama radioheliograph and the initiation of a fast partial halo CME observed with the LASCO C2 coronagraph. Towards the start of the eruption, we find evidence for reconnection above the prominence. Subsequently, we find evidence for rapid growth of a vertical current sheet below the erupting arcade, which is accompanied by the flare and prominence eruption.  相似文献   

Environmental geochemistry of the River Gomti: A tributary of the Ganges River     

L. P. Gupta  V. Subramanian 《Environmental Geology》1994,24(4):235-243

Water and sediment samples collected from the Gomti River, a tributary of the Ganges River system, during the postmonsoon season have been analyzed to estimate major elemental chemistry. Water chemistry of the River Gomti shows almost monotonous spatial distribution of various chemical species, especially because of uniform presence of alluvium Dun gravels throughout the basin. The river annually transports 0.34×10⁶ tonnes of total suspended material (TSM) and 3.0×10⁶ tonnes of total dissolved solids (TDS), 69 percent of which is accounted for by bicarbonate ions only. Samples collected downstream of the city of Lucknow show the influence of anthropogenic loadings for a considerable distance in the river water. Na⁺, Cl^–, and SO₄ ^2– concentrations build up downstream. The bed sediment chemistry is dominated by Si (36 percent), reflecting a high percentage of detrital quartz, which makes up about 74 percent of the mineralogy of the bed sediments in the River Gomti. The average Kjeldahl nitrogen concentration (234 g/g) indicates indirectly the amount of organic matter in the sediments. The Hg concentration in sediments has been found to be higher (average 904 ppb) than the background value. The suspended sediments are well sorted, very finely skewed, and extremely leptokurtic, indicating a low energy condition of flow in the Gomti River. The influence of chemical loads in the Gomti has been found to be small or nonexistent on the Ganges River, perhaps because the water discharge of the Gomti (1.57 percent) to the Ganges is quite low.  相似文献   

Texture and mineralogy of sediments from the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna river system in the Bengal Basin, Bangladesh and their environmental implications   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

D. K. Datta  V. Subramanian 《Environmental Geology》1997,30(3-4):181-188

 The Bengal basin, Bangladesh, represents one of the most densely populated recent floodplains of the world. The sediment flux through the basin is one of the highest on a global scale. A significant portion of this sediment load find its sink in the basin itself because of its lower elevation and frequent flooding. The textural, mineralogical and chemical nature of the sediments thus have an important bearing on the environmental quality of the basin as well as for the Bay of Bengal. The sediment load of the Ganges-Brahmaputra-Meghna (GBM) river system consists exclusively of fine sand, silt and clay at their lower reaches within the Bengal basin, Bangladesh, and is deposited under uniformly fluctuating, unidirectional energy conditions. The sediments have a close simitarity in grain size with the sediments of the surrounding floodplain. The mineral assemblage is dominated by quartz and feldspars. Illite and kaolinite are the major clay minerals, and occur in almost equal proportion in bed sediments. The heavy mineral assemblage is dominated by unstable minerals which are mostly derived from high-rank metamorphic rocks. The characteristic smaller grain-size, i.e. having large surface-to-mass ratios, and the mineralogy of sediments suggests that they are susceptible to large chemical adsorptive reactions and thus could serve as a potential trap for contaminants. However, the sediments of the GBM river system in the Bengal basin, Bangladesh, shows lower concentration of Pb, Hg and As, and a marginally higher value for Cd as compared to that of standard shale. Considering population density and extensive agricultural practice in the basin, the sediments can in the long run become contaminated. Received: 9 November 1994 · Accepted: 18 June 1996  相似文献

Mid-Century Strategies: pathways to a low-carbon future?     

Narayan Gopinathan  Narayan S. Subramanian 《Climate Policy》2019,19(9):1088-1101

Since the Paris Agreement was adopted in 2015, both national and subnational governments have been encouraged to submit Mid-Century Strategies, outlining how they would reach their deep decarbonization goals. However, research on the design and potential of these strategies has been very limited. To address this shortcoming, here we assess 13 such strategies – six national, seven subnational – in a comparative fashion. We find that the energy-economy-climate models underpinning these strategies are generally of high quality, though national jurisdictions generally performed better. However, most strategies are not plausible without significant changes to policy, and the industrial sector in particular presents a major limitation. The strategies are helpful in revealing this gap, but much works remains to be done for plausible mid-century decarbonization trajectories to become a reality. We also find that public input and societal participation in strategy building were a double-edged sword depending on the constellation of domestic preferences.

• Governmental Mid-Century Strategies for deep decarbonization are underpinned by high-quality energy-economy-climate models

• Governments’ proposed strategies require significant new policies, as even among jurisdictions that have an MCS, extant policies are insufficient to achieve deep decarbonization

• No jurisdiction studied has yet put forward a plausible decarbonization policy for the industrial sector.

• Public input and societal participation can be a double-edged sword: they can increase durability of the strategy but also enable opposing forces to mobilize against ambitious changes.

Dielectric constants of BeO,MgO, and CaO using the two-terminal method     

M. A. Subramanian  R. D. Shannon  B. H. T. Chai  M. M. Abraham  M. C. Wintersgill 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1989,16(8):741-746

Using fused SiO₂, CaF₂, and SrF₂ samples with accurately known dielectric constants, we have evaluated the accuracy and precision of two-terminal dielectric constant measurements on small single crystals using empirically determined edge corrections. Values of κ′ at 1 MHz of 3.836±0.05 for silica, 6.814±0.07 for CaF₂ and 6.463±0.09 for SrF₂ indicate an accuracy and precision of 1.0–1.5% for samples having areas of 0.05–1.0 cm². Dielectric constants of BeO, MgO, and CaO measured by this technique are: BeO, κ′_a=6.87 and κ′_c=7.74; MgO, κ′= 9.90; and CaO, κ′=11.95 where κ′_a and κ′_c are the dielectric constants parallel to the a and c axes, respectively. Dielectric loss measurements on CaO in vacuum between 5–400 K at 10–10⁵ Hz indicate significant dispersion at temperatures higher than 300 K, but the effect of the losses on the dielectric constant is less than 1% at 1 MHz and 300 K.  相似文献   

Dielectric constants of tephroite,fayalite and olivine and the oxide additivity rule     

R. D. Shannon  M. A. Subramanian  S. Hosoya  G. R. Rossman 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1991,18(1):1-6

The dielectric constants and dissipation factors of synthetic tephroite (Mn₂SiO₄), fayalite (Fe₃SiO₄) and a forsteritic olivine (Mg_1.80Fe_0.22SiO₄) were measured at 1 MHz using a two-terminal method and empirically determined edge corrections. The results are: tephroite, κ′_a= 8.79 tan δ_a = 0.0006 κ′_b = 10.20 tan δ_b = 0.0006 κ′_c= 8.94 tan δ_c= 0.0008 fayalite, gk′_a = 8.80 tan δ_a = 0.0004 gk′_b= 8.92 tan δ_b = 0.0018 gk′_c = 8.58 tan δ_c = 0.0010 olivine, gk′_a = 7.16 tan δ_a = 0.0006 gk′_b = 7.61 tan δ_b = 0.0008 gk′_c = 7.03 tan δ_c = 0.0006 The low dielectric constant and loss of the fayalite indicate an exceptionally low Fe³⁺ content. An FeO polarizability of 4.18 ų, determined from α_D(FeO) = [α_D (Fe₂SiO₄)-α_D(SiO₂)]/2, is probably a more reliable value for stoichiometric FeO than could be obtained from Fe_xO where x = 0.90–0.95. The agreement between measured dielectric polarizabilities as determined from the Clausius-Mosotti equation and those calculated from the sum of oxide polarizabilities according to α_D(M₂M′X₂) = 2α_D(MX) + α_D(M′X₂) is ～+2.8% for tephroite and +0.2% for olivine. The deviation from additivity in tephroite is discussed.  相似文献
