用银河宇宙线判定几个引起特大磁暴CME的运动方向

利用位于南北极尖区位置的McMurdo和Thule台站的宇宙线强度的观测数据，分析了几个引起特大磁暴CME的来向．分析结果表明，所选的与4个特大磁暴相关的CME基本是朝正对磁层顶的方向运动并与磁层作用的．通过对引起第23周两个特大磁暴的CME特征分析对照，发现CME的来向是影响磁暴强弱的一个因素．同样条件下，运动方向偏向地球一侧的CME引起的磁暴比正对地球的CME引起的磁暴要弱。     

多方向μ介子通量一致性特征研究

通过地面μ介子望远镜可以探测不同方向到达的宇宙线通量,得到从外空间入射的宇宙线受到不均匀结构的调制情况,判断CME的特征.通过分析,发现大地磁暴前Nagoya台站东向和南向的探测数据存在固定的2h时间差,认为这是由两个入射方向的宇宙线粒子先后穿越CME结构引起的.分别计算了两个方向相同时间和南向相位后移2h后通量探测数据的相关系数,以及两种情形下通量差的变化幅度,定量描述了CME接近地球过程中两个方向通量的相关特征.通过比较发现,CME接近地球过程中,经过相位变换的两个方向的相关系数明显高于未经变换的情况,经过相位变换的两个方向的通量差幅度明显小于未经变换的情况;CME到达地球后,两种情形的相关系数和通量差幅度则趋于相同.对2003-2005年K_p=9的地磁暴事件的分析均发现了这种现象.对2006年12月14日大地磁暴前的μ介子通量特征进行了分析,也完全符合上述特征.

利用地面宇宙线强度变化预报地磁暴方法初步研究

分析了Nagoya宇宙线闪烁体望远镜探测数据的变化特点,定性地探讨了CME可能引起的地面宇宙线的变化特征,通过实例证实了地面宇宙线通量的异常波动是地磁暴发生的重要先兆特征,并且将8 h内宇宙线通量与该时间段内平均通量的偏差D8(t)参数应用到宇宙线数据分析中.通过数据分析与讨论,认为D8(t)参数达到一定阈值是地磁暴的重要先兆特征,但不是充分条件,虚假信号仍占多数;D8(t)参数与太阳质子事件探测结果相结合,对于大地磁暴的预报有较好的效果.      

强磁场扰动对宇宙线调制的统计研究

对1978─1982太阳活动高年时发生的激波、强磁场扰动及激波与强磁场扰动共存这三类事件引起的宇宙线变化进行了统计研究,得到如下结果:(1)激波与强磁场扰动共存时引起的宇宙线强度下降最为显着;只有激波或强磁场扰动时,宇宙线的强度变化相对较小;(2)标志速度间断的激波是产生宇宙线Forbush下降的重要因素;(3)速度间断在强磁场扰动对宇宙线的调制中可能起一个触发的作用。      

第22与23周磁静日北京台银河宇宙线周日变化与半日变化特征

利用快速傅里叶变换及其计算功率谱的方法研究了第22和23周磁静日北京宇宙线台站记录的银河宇宙线强度的周日变化与半日变化，计算结果表明，在两个太阳活动周交替时，银河宇宙线的周日变化与半日变化特征消失，在太阳活动低年逐渐向高年过度时，首先出现的是周日变化。半日变化特征出现要滞后于周日变化，22周太阳活动高年看不出周日变化，而23周太阳活动的高年周日变化非常显著，22周太阳活动的下降期。只有周日变化而无半日变化。这是分析北京宇宙线台近2个太阳活动周数据得到的新结果。     

低平流层温度对银河系宇宙线强度变化的响应

选用芬兰中子堆监测站从lop年7月至1989年3月的宇宙线强度月平均曲线数据,和在相对应期间我国境内海拉尔等4个高空气象观测站的30hPa和100hPa等位势高度上常规气温观测月平均资料,经统计分析,取得初步结果:低平流层气温与银河系宇宙线辐射强度之间呈现负相关的特性;与银河系宇宙线辐射强度峰区和谷区相对应会在低平流层中引起幅值为2-3℃的温度变化;不同纬度观测站所得观测数据表明,上述增温幅值随纬度降低而减少。      

太阳高能粒子事件强度与相关双CME事件关系的两个事例

太阳高能粒子事件常伴随太阳耀斑和日冕物质抛射事件(Coronal Mass Ejections,CME)出现,由于太阳高能粒子事件的关键因素是双CME的相互作用,利用SOHO卫星观测的高能粒子强度、耀斑强度以及CME的相对高度与时间,通过高度与时间拟合得到的速度,分析了2001年4月15日和2005年1月20日的太阳高能粒子事件强度与相关双CME事件的关系,发现这两个太阳高能粒子事件中E ≥ 10MeV质子的强度与双CME事件无关.因此在这两次太阳高能粒子事件早期,E ≥ 10MeV质子的强度只与相关太阳耀斑和CME有关.

Learning in an immersive digital theater

The Houston Museum of Natural Science, in collaboration with Rice University has an outreach program taking portable digital theaters to schools and community sites for over five years and has conducted research on student learning in this immersive environment. By using an external independent evaluator, the effectiveness of NASA-funded Education and Public Outreach (EPO) projects can be assessed. This paper documents interactive techniques and learning strategies in full-dome digital theaters. The presentation is divided into Evaluation Strategies and Results and Interactivity Strategies and Results. All learners from grades 3–12 showed statistically significant short-term increase in knowledge of basic Earth science concepts after a single 22-min show. Improvements were more significant on items that were taught using more than one modality of instruction: hearing, seeing, discussion, and immersion. Thus immersive theater can be an effective as well as engaging teaching method for Earth and Space science concepts, particularly those that are intrinsically three-dimensional and thus most effectively taught in an immersive environment. The portable system allows taking the educational experience to rural and tribal sites where the underserved students could not afford the time or expense to travel to museums.     

Stochastic particle acceleration by the forced interaction of relativistic current sheets

We address the problem of interacting relativistic current sheets in self-consistent kinetic plasma simulations within the framework of the Particle-In-Cell model. The interaction is enforced in head-on collisions of up to 10 current sheets at relativistic bulk speeds. The simulations are motivated by the general problem of Poynting flux dissipation in ‘striped wind’ configurations presumably governing the relativistic outflows pervasive in pulsar winds and gamma-ray bursts. We identify the generation of non-thermal particles and formation of a stable power-law shape in the particle energy distributions f(γ) dγ ∝ γ^−s dγ. In 1D, a spectral index s ∼ 2 is observed and attributed to a stochastic Fermi-type acceleration mechanism. In 2D, the generic index of s ∼ 3–4 is retained as in previous simulations of individual current sheets. Whereas in 2D the high energy cut-off is constrained by the limited dissipation of magnetic energy, in 1D the process converts the bulk motion of current sheets towards directed particle momentum of an exclusive class of non-thermal particles.     

Concept options for the aerial survey of Titan

Various aerial platforms intended for long endurance survey of the Titan surface are presented. A few novel concepts are introduced, including a heated methane balloon and a balloon with a tethered wind turbine. All the concept options are predicted to have lower scientific payload fractions than the Huygens probe. It is concluded that the selection of the best aerial platform option depends on more accurate mass estimates and a clear decision on whether, or not, in situ surface composition measurements are required in conjunction with aerial remote sensing.     

Heterogeneous solid/gas chemistry of organic compounds related to comets,meteorites, Titan,and Mars: Laboratory and in lower Earth orbit experiments

To understand the evolution of organic molecules involved in extraterrestrial environments and with exobiological implications, many experimental programs in the laboratory are devoted to photochemical studies in the gaseous phase as well as in the solid state. The validity of such studies and their applications to extraterrestrial environments can be questioned as long as experiments conducted in space conditions, with the full solar spectrum, especially in the short wavelength domain, have not been implemented. The experiments that are described here will be carried out on a FOTON capsule, using the BIOPAN facility, and on the International Space Station, using the EXPOSE facility. Vented and sealed exposition cells will be used, which will allow us to study the chemical evolution in the gaseous phase as well as heterogeneous processes, such as the degradation of solid compounds and the release of gaseous fragments.

CoRoT and Kepler results: Solar-like oscillators

The space-borne observatories CoRoT (Convection Rotation and planetary Transits) and Kepler have provided photometric time series data of unprecedented precision for large numbers of stars. These data have revolutionized the fields of transiting exoplanets and asteroseismology. In this review some important asteroseismic results obtained using data from the CoRoT and Kepler space missions concerning stars that show solar-like oscillations are discussed. These results comprise, among others, measurements of the location of the base of the convection zone and helium second-ionization zone in main-sequence stars, the presence (or not) of core-helium burning in red-giant stars, as well as differential rotation in these stars.

应用于毫米波反射计的多项式校准方法

为了在毫米波波段准确测量波导器件的反射系数,提出了一种应用在反射系数测试前端(反射计)中的校准方法.该校准方法采用基于多项式的误差模型,使得每一个误差项的求解都转化成一个求解轨迹圆圆心的问题,同时不影响求解精度.采用一个滑动负载、一个滑动短路和一个短路器,在毫米波波段降低了对标准件理想程度的要求.实验中搭建了一个Ka波段的反射计,图解误差项的求解过程,分析了误差项的物理意义.把校准后的测量结果与商用矢量网络分析仪(VNA,Vector Network Analyzer)进行比较,吻合较好.同样比较了一组W波段反射计对波纹喇叭的测量结果,进一步验证了方法的合理性.
