Terminal Outflow Velocities from the Mass-Losing AGB Stars     

A. Kučinskas 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1997,251(1-2):231-234

We have calculated terminal gas outflow velocities from the circumstellar shells of the AGB stars. Our results confirm that, in case of the stationary dust driven winds, the dynamics of the outflow is governed essentially by the dust properties and stellar luminosities, while only marginally by other stellar parameters. Although being far from comprehensive, our calculations also indicate that the dust driven winds may only occur in cool, luminous, low mass objects. This revised version was published online in September 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献   

Magnetic stratigraphy observed in ferromanganese crust   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Summary. A sample of ferromanganese crust deposit (SCHW-1D) was cut into two sets of 1 mm slices for palaeomagnetic study. Alternating field and thermal demagnetization, and isothermal remanent magnetization analyses were performed on each thin slice. The results reveal the presence of a stable magnetism and both normal and reversed polarity intervals in the specimens. The observed polarity intervals cannot be confidently correlated with the geomagnetic polarity time-scale of the last 10 Myr due to the polarity overlap inherent in the sampling technique. But the results confirm the slow accretion rate of ferromanganese deposit determined by ¹⁰Be method and suggest potential use of ferromanganese deposits in palaeomagnetic and tectonic studies.  相似文献   

Метод трех направлений     

Karel Kučera 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》1966,10(4):411-421

Summary In [1] the author has put forward a three-direction method, a general way of adjustment of angular observations in incomplete sets by the method of extending into angular combinations, and the definition of mean weightP ^*. In this article the question is dealt with as a whole. In the three-direction methods>3 triangulation directions are measured in direction triplets 123, 234, 345,… …,s12, while in the method of measuring single angles at the station they are measured in angles 12, 23, 34, 45, …,s1. The advantage of transition from angles to direction triplets rests, besides in saving 31% of pointings, above all in certain possibility of elimination of the horizontal refraction, which follows from this. The treatise of the relation between the method of measurement and the refraction is not included into this article, as it would go beyond its scope. The fact that adjusted directions, with the exception of the stations having four directions, are not of equal weight, is proper not only to the three-direction method. The non-equality of weights is even more conspicuous in the method of measuring single angles at the station, and it appears already at the stations having four directions. In author's view the homogeneity of observation elements is more important than the homogeneity of weights from the point of view of adjustment at the station; therefore the direction triplets ought not to exist abreast with the angles in one programme, and especially the number of observations ought to be constant at one station with adjusted direction of homogeneous mean weight in the net. This transition from angles to direction triplets could also provoke a comment that simultaneous visibility of three adjoining directions occurs less often than of two such directions. The author adds to this that nowadays the causes of this phenomenon, following from unsuitable technique, must be eliminated. It is just air limpidity that ought to define the visibility, not unsufficient or everywhere equal intensity of light of reflectors, or too long sides of the triangulation net. Recent approach to this problem requires simultaneous visibility of all directions during most of the days of observation. In connection with the out-of=date technique, the methods of angular observation often have one unfavourable character: they are the cause of the accumulation of observations of “always visible” directions. The supposed merit of angles thus turns into their imperfection.

Evaluation of soil liquefaction in the Chi-Chi, Taiwan earthquake using CPT   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

During the 1999 Chi-Chi, Taiwan earthquake, many sand boiling phenomena were observed in central Taiwan, which caused severe ground settlement and structure damages. According to the installed accelerograms, the peak ground surface horizontal accelerations in the liquefaction-affected areas range from 774.42 to 121.3 gal. The writers carried out an extensive investigation of soil liquefaction in this earthquake. In this paper, we present results of the CPT exploration and post-earthquake liquefaction analysis. Two hundred and seventy five (275) cone penetration test data were collected from the liquefaction-affected areas, and 46 liquefaction case histories and 88 non-liquefaction case histories were derived that can be used to evaluate the accuracy of existing liquefaction evaluation models. In addition, the strength of the liquefied soils after earthquake and the implication of its liquefaction potential in the future event are discussed.  相似文献   

Sr/Sr and Sr/Ca in speleothems for paleoclimate reconstruction in Central China between 70 and 280 kyr ago

Limestone cave deposits (speleothems) provide archives for past changes in regional climates over a range of timescales. While δ¹⁸O and δ¹³C in speleothem calcite have been commonly used for reconstruction of paleoclimates, we report here further efforts in the use of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr and Sr/Ca signals in speleothem calcite to deduce paleomonsoon variability near the Loess Plateau of central China. A two end-member mass-balance model of concentration and isotopic composition of strontium in a cave system is used to estimate variation of the ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio in sediments overlying a limestone cave. We show that this ratio reflects climate-driven variations in the provenance and the extent of chemical weathering of the epikarstic sediments. The measurements of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr made on a well-dated stalagmite, SFL, from Buddha Cave (33^o40N′ 109^o05′E) show ratios of 0.71092 to 0.71133 (±0.00001 as 2σ) during relatively cold periods (e.g., Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5b, 5d, and 8), lower than ratios of 0.71133 to 0.71194 during relatively warm periods (e.g., MIS 5a, 5c, 5e, and 7). As changes in the Sr/Ca ratio may affect speleothem ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr, we show that the direct use of speleothem ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr is less ideal than our modeled ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr for the exogenic Sr source above the cave as a paleomonsoon proxy. Using the δ¹⁸O, δ¹³C, Sr/Ca, and ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr records of the stalagmite, we reconstruct the variability of the East Asian monsoon for the time period between 70 and 280 kyr ago. The results show that summer monsoons were more intense during interglacial periods than during glacial periods.  相似文献

Chemical composition and physical properties of lithium-iron micas from the Krušné hory Mts. (Erzgebirge)

Compositions of natural lithium-iron micas are approximated best by the sidero-phyllite-polylithionite join. These micas contain little or no magnesium and manganese. Their octahedral sheets contain close to two trivalent cations (mainly aluminum) in small crystallographic sites and a variable quantity of lithium and R⁺² (mainly iron) in large sites. Octahedral vacancies are situated mostly in large sites. Lithium and R⁺² approach a 44 replacement relationship in micas with octahedral occupancy close to six. Lithium and fluorine show a good positive correlation (small excess of fluorine over lithium), which indicates a crystallochemical association between them. There is a less distinct positive correlation between lithium and R⁺⁴.Based on simplifications, a calculation shows that about two-thirds of octahedral vacancies are caused by substitutions within the octahedral sheet, one-third, by tetrahedral substitutions. Different methods of calculating the crystallochemical formula yield slightly different numbers of octahedral vacancies, but do not affect the mica's position in plots of physical parameters against composition. If a crystallochemical formula is calculated from analysis of a mica contaminated with quartz, topaz, or feldspar, the apparent number of octahedral vacancies increases; such a formula exhibits unusual behavior in composition plots.  相似文献   

Volles Gewicht einer im Refraktionsmilieu gemessenen Grösse (Teil I)

Summary As regards the concept of complete weight p with which an observed quantity (e.g., the direction of theA–G net) should enter the net adjustment, according to Eq.(1), apart from the fundamental weight p ₀ ), determined by the number of repetitions, it should also contain the time parameter p_t according to Eq.(11), where c>1 is a constant, and t is the number of days of observation, and also the refraction factor p_r according to Eqs(17, 18), where q is the structural weight of the direction. The condition for being able to determine p_r with the directions is observation by means of the three-directional vertex method[2], because it is not possible to localize lateral refraction by angular methods. The theory of complete weight is in favour of observations with a high fundamental weight p ₀ which automatically yield higher values of t, and also of p_t. The introduction of the complete weight into the experimental directional net in Fig. 2 caused the mean value of the uneliminated refraction error to decrease from 0.24 to 0.12, the mean square error of the adjusted direction being 0.17. The value of the constant c was investigated and the method of determining the parameter p_r was derived also for lengths measured electro-optically. Mention is made of the effect of complete weights on the length adjustment of a net in[6].  相似文献

Summary According to the results of the adjustments of eight trigonometric and three-dimensional networks, the a priori variance m²() of the measured vertical angle is expressed by the formula: m²() = m²(a) + [C 1/2 m(k)]², where m(a) represents accidental observation errors; the constant C is estimated in the interval 0.5–1.5 according to the number of repreated observations and the variation of their changes with time; is the angle between the normals to the ellipsoid at the initial and final point of the line of sight, and m(k) is the mean square error of the coefficient of refraction which can be estimated for a given network from Tab. 1.Dedicated to 90th Birthday of Professor Frantiek Fiala  相似文献
