Long-lived upstream energetic ion events at Jupiter appear to be very similar in nearly all respects to upstream ion events at earth. A notable difference between the two planetary systems is the enhanced heavy ion compositional signature reported for the Jovian events. This compositional feature has suggested that ions escaping from the Jovian magnetosphere play an important role in forming upstream ion populations at Jupiter. In contrast, models of energetic upstream ions at earth emphasize acceleration of reflected solar wind ions within the upstream region itself. Using Voyager 1 and 2 energetic (? 30 keV) ion measurements near the magnetopause, in the magnetosheath, and immediately upstream of the bow shock, we examine the compositional patterns together with typical energy spectra in each of these regions. We find characteristic spectral changes late in ion events observed upstream of the bow shock at the same time that heavy ion fluxes are enhanced and energetic electrons are present. A model involving upstream Fermi acceleration early in events and emphasizing energetic particle escape in the prenoon part of the Jovian magnetosphere late in events is presented to explain many of the features in the upstream region of Jupiter. 相似文献

Doppler and ranging measurements using the radio signal of the GIOTTO spacecraft were taken before, during, and after the encounter with Comet Halley on March 1986. The spacecraft velocity was found to decrease by a total of 23.3 cm s?1 due to impacting gas and (primarily) dust in the cometary atmosphere. A preliminary dust production rate is found to be consistent with this deceleration. Power spectra of the carrier phase fluctuations reveal an increase in level and a flattening of the spectrum just prior to encounter, presumably associated with the enhanced dust impact rate. Finally, simulated Doppler time profiles are computed using the radial dependence of plasma density observed by the GIOTTO investigations. It is shown that the cometary electron content profile would have been clearly seen if a dual-frequency downlink radio configuration had been available at encounter. 相似文献

The dust population at 1 AU is known for all sizes between μm and cm to an accuracy better than one order of magnitude. It was observed by Helios that the fine grained dust (μm to 100 μm) decreases with increasing sun distance ∞ r?1.3, at least between 0.3 and 1 AU /1/.Two Pioneer dust experiments observed the dust distribution beyond 1 AU in the 10 to 100 μm diameter size range for the first time directly with contradicting results. The penetration experiment saw a constant flux out to 20 AU while the optical experiment observed a decrease of the dust number densities until 3.3 AU, but no scattered light was recorded further out. An attempt is made to explain these observations on the basis of the socalled ‘Greenberg’-particles: cometary core/mantle grains with organic mantle material. The observed enhancement of the dust flux by 1 or 2 orders of magnitudes near Jupiter and Saturn are interpreted as being caused by gravitational focussing, ejecta from jovian/saturnian satellites and electrostatic fragmentation products. 相似文献

The VEGA-1 and VEGA-2 spacecraft made their closest approach to Comet Halley on 6 and 9 March, respectively. In this paper those results of the onboard imaging experiment which were obtained around closest approach are discussed. The nucleus of the comet was clearly identifiable as an irregularly shaped object, with overall dimensions of (16±1)×(8±1)×(8±1) km. The nucleus rotates in the prograde sense about an axis nearly perpendicular to the orbital plane with a period of 53±2 hours. Its albedo is only Many of the jet features observed during the second fly-by have been spatially reconstructed. Their sources form a quasi-linear structure on the surface. The dust above the surface is shown to be generally optically thin with the exception of certain specific dust jets. Brightness features on the surface are clearly seen. Correlating our data with other measurements, we conclude that the dirty snow-ball model will probably need to be revised. 相似文献

Remote optical observations of comets provide information only along the whole line of sight and require some assumptions to be interpreted. Due to the advent of cometary space missions, a two-step strategy has been defined to derive without any assumption spatial distribution and physical properties of dust by in-situ optical observations. First, an , suitable for a fast fly-by, should provide passive in-situ measurements in the direction of the approaching (or receding) comet near encounter; by suitably differencing such observations, the brightness and polarization per can be recovered along the trajectory of the spacecraft. Secondly, a , suitable for a rendez-vous mission, should permit the determination of the scattering properties of . Both experiments also provide a connecting link between non-optical in-situ measurements (from mass spectrometers or impact detectors) and remote optical observations. 相似文献

The Cold Arctic Mesopause Program (CAMP) was conducted at ESRANGE, Sweden, in July/August 1982. During the time period of several weeks, the temperature was monitored by ground-based OH emission spectrometers and by stellite radiance measurements. Rocket launchings occurred on the nights of and August. On August, seven rocket payloads were launched during a period of noctilucent cloud sighting over ESRANGE. The presence of the NLC was confirmed by several rocket-borne photometer profiles. The temperature measurements showed that the temperature profiles in the stratosphere and lower mesosphere were near the expected values of high latitude summer models. A large amplitude wave structure with three temperature minima of 139K, 114K and 111K were observed at altitudes between 83 and 94 km. The temperature minimum at 83 km was the location of the observed NLC. The temperature minima caused by the growth of the gravity wave amplitude in the highly stable mesosphere provide the regions for the growth of particles by nucleation to optical scattering size, as well as regions where the nuclei for condensation can be formed through ion chemistry paths. 相似文献

A massive new body of data, comprised of spectrophotometry of 17 comets by Newburn and Spinrad, has now become available for calibration of the basic theory, the Semi-Empirical Photometric Theory, used for modelling of Comet Halley. A redetermination of the constant and the function δ has been made, and no change is needed. Improved mixing ratios given as a function of heliocentric distance also permit an improvement in the constants of the visual photometric model presented at COSPAR XXIV. A new light curve for Halley and a lower dust to gas ratio prove to make roughly compensating changes in dust densities. 相似文献

Force-free magnetic structures with cylindrical geometry appear under a variety of conditions in nature. Filamentary helical magnetic structures are observed to be associated with prominences and flares in the solar atmosphere, and can arise in superconductors and laboratory plasmas. Another example of cylindrical quasi-force-free configurations appears to exist in the Venus ionosphere. Magnetic flux ropes with diameters of ~20 – 30 km have been observed by the Pioneer Venus Orbiter to be a nearly ubiquitous feature of the dayside Venus ionosphere. Models of flux ropes suggest that many of these structures tend to be quasi-force-free, i.e., ×~0, while others are correlated with pressure variations in the ambient thermal plasma, ×=-?(nkT). 相似文献

A ring-like mass exerts a well computable gravitational attraction on a material point located along a straight line, being perpendicular to the plane of the ring in its centre. In the state of weightlessness, an oscillatory movement will develop owing to this effect. The period, T, of oscillation depends on the gravity constant, on the density and dimensions of the ring, as well as on the amplitude of the oscillation. Its exact computation can be based on the determination of the gravity potential function of the ring. The oscillation has the following form: where f is the gravitational constant. is the density of the ring, r and R are the radii of the ring, z is the distance of the turning point of the oscillation from the centre of the ring, while I/r,R,z/ is an improper integral which can be computed with any desired accuracy owing to the favourable function-theoretical character of the potential. We computed the oscillation period for various possible values of the parameters and obtained time data of an order of magnitude which falls into a well observable interval.The outlined conceptual experiment for the improved determination of the gravitational constant may present, of course, many technical difficulties and error sources /e.g. the path of the oscillating point is quite unstable owing to the extremely small acting forces, electric charges and also radiation pressure might be present, the gravity field would show a gradient on the spot of the experiment, etc./. Nevertheless, it seems to be worthwhile to consider carrying out such an experiment, using the possibilities offered by modern techniques in observing distances and time. For the path distortions caused by errors, we give a few estimates, but in case of realization of the experiment, a more detailed error analysis must be made. 相似文献

In this paper we review the theory of charged test particle motion in magnetic fields. This theory is then extended to charged particles, for which gravity and charge fluctuations play an important role. It is shown that systematic drifts perpendicular to the magnetic field and stochastic transport effects may then have to be considered - none of which occur in the case of atomic particles (with the exception of charge exchange reactions). Some applications of charged dust particle transport theory to planetary rings are then briefly discussed. 相似文献

The influence of lowered gravitation on biomass and CO2 production in , a xerophyte, and , an aqueous spirillum, in liquid nutrient medium on a horizontal clinostat at 0.1 has been studied. As controls we considered: 1) growth under stationary conditions of cultivation with test tubes oriented horizontally; 2) growth on a synchronously revolving centrifuge; and 3) growth on a swing with stirring. A horizontal clinostat at 0.1 g stimulates biomass production and CO2 release in as compared with the controls. growth is reduced as a result of clinostating. The best development and CO2 production are observed under stationary conditions. The results do not support the assumption that microorganisms living in water are more resistant to lowered gravitation than those living in soil. 相似文献

measurements by dust experiments on HEOS II showed significant enhancement of fluxes for submicron particles. Recent studies have shown that lunar ejecta in this size range can, in a highly simplified model, be trapped in the earth's magnetosphere. The present work is a more detailed study of the dynamics of lunar ejecta in the magnetosphere. The particle size ranges for which the guiding center approximation is valid, for which corotation is negligible, and for which electromagnetic forces dominate gravitational forces have been calculated. Temporal details of charge acquisition by ejecta in the plasmasphere are considered. 相似文献

The effect of weightlessness on chromosomal aberration frequency in preflight irradiated seeds, on the viability, fertility and mutation frequency in , and on the frequency of nondisjunction and loss of X chromosomes in preflight irradiated gametes was studied aboard the Salyut 6 orbital station. The following effects were observed: a flight-time dependent amplification of the effects of preflight -irradiation in . with respect to all the parameters studied; unequal effects in seeds and seedlings of ; and a significant increase in the frequency of nondisjunction and loss of chromosomes during meiosis in females. These observations are discussed in terms of the data of ground-based model experiments and flight experiments with a different time of exposure of objects to weightlessness. An attempt is made to elucidate the role of weightlessness in the modification of ionizing radiation effects. 相似文献

The ructure and tmospheric urbulence nvironment (STATE) experiment was conducted during the second week of June 1983 at Poker Flat Research Range, Alaska. The measurements focus on a study of the middle atmosphere dynamics by comparison between in-situ probe measurements and MST radar measurements. Rocket launchings were conducted at three periods which were selected by monitoring the doppler velocity spectra of the MST radar.The STATE program has included the efforts of several scientists in planning and carrying out the ground-based and rocket measurements. An overview of the program is given together with some preliminary results. The regions in intense backscatter signals detected by the MST radar are shown to correlate with large irregularities in the electron profiles measured. 相似文献

The Anger wedge and strip anode event location system developed for microchannel plate image photon detectors at the Space Sciences Laboratory of the University of California, Berkeley, has been extended in the present work by the use of electron beam lithography (EBL). Computer-aided design methods have been used to develop several types of RALICON (eadout nodes of hographic struction) for use in photon counting microchannel plate imaging detectors. These anodes are suitable for linear, two dimensional or radial position measurements and they incorporate novel design features made possible by the EBL fabrication technique which significantly extend their application relative to published wedge-strip anode designs. 相似文献

The observed magnetic field configuration in the Venus magnetosheath contains information about the solar wind mass-loading processes occurring as a result of the extension of the neutral atmosphere into the magnetosheath. In this paper, magnetic field signatures of various mass-loading processes are discussed and experimental results from the Pioneer Venus Orbiter magnetometer experiment are examined for evidence of these signatures. The data suggest that the ?X acceleration process, stochastic pickup of ionospheric ions, and X force “scavenging” at the ionopause all occur at various times. 相似文献

After a general definition of data- and instrument autonomy and an introduction to the End-to-End Data System concept the future guidelines for “Packet Telemetry and -Telecommand” are overviewed. These and other guidelines have been initiated by a NASA/ESA working group and further developed by an international “onsultative ommittee for pace ata ystems” (CCSDS), coordinated with 6 space agencies. The status of these documents is reviewed, especially the document on Packet Telemetry, which has reached a mature stage. A pilot project, utonomous ayload ontrol (APC), for the study and the demonstration of these new procedures is introduced shortly. 相似文献

We present the results of manned studies in which test subjects were exposed to simulated zero (water immersion or head-down tilt at ?6°) and head-to-feet acceleration. The findings give evidence that humans have different individual tolerances to an acceleration of +3 Gz after exposure to zero , whether simulated by immersion or by head-down tilt. The paper discusses the functional relationship between water balance and cardiac output in the establishment of adaptive reactions to simulated zero . 相似文献
