Diurnal and seasonal variations of F2 layer characteristics over Irkutsk during the decrease in solar activity in 2003–2006: Observations and IRI-2001 model predictions

The diurnal and seasonal variations of F2 layer characteristics (critical frequency, peak height and bottomside thickness) over Irkutsk, Russia (52.3 N and 104.3 E) are studied by the method of running medians. The comparison with the IRI-2001 model during the decrease in solar activity in 2003–2006 revealed cases of both close agreement and systematic differences between predictions and observations. The systematic difference is not the only reason for disagreement between IRI and observations; there are also intrayear variations which are not associated with seasonal behavior. The period of observation was too short to make conclusions about solar activity dependence of the noon bottomside thickness and the modification of its diurnal behavior with decreasing solar activity.     

DPOD2005: An extension of ITRF2005 for Precise Orbit Determination

For Precise Orbit Determination of altimetry missions, we have computed a data set of DORIS station coordinates defined for specific time intervals called DPOD2005. This terrestrial reference set is an extension of ITRF2005. However, it includes all new DORIS stations and is more reliable, as we disregard stations with large velocity formal errors as they could contaminate POD computations in the near future. About 1/4 of the station coordinates need to be defined as they do not appear in the original ITRF2005 realization. These results were verified with available DORIS and GPS results, as the integrity of DPOD2005 is almost as critical as its accuracy. Besides station coordinates and velocities, we also provide additional information such as periods for which DORIS data should be disregarded for specific DORIS stations, and epochs of coordinate and velocity discontinuities (related to either geophysical events, equipment problem or human intervention). The DPOD model was tested for orbit determination for TOPEX/Poseidon (T/P), Jason-1 and Jason-2. Test results show DPOD2005 offers improvement over the original ITRF2005, improvement that rapidly and significantly increases after 2005. Improvement is also significant for the early T/P cycles indicating improved station velocities in the DPOD2005 model and a more complete station set. Following 2005 the radial accuracy and centering of the ITRF2005-original orbits rapidly degrades due to station loss.     

级数证明问题的几种处理方法

通过有关级数证明的几个例题，提出了思考和分析问题几种常用的方法。特别是对一般项为抽象形式的级数证明，更要思路开阔，根据所给的条件确定解决问题的不同方法。在级数的一般项中含有参数时，要对参数取值的不同情况进行讨论，才能得到完整的结果。最后介绍了一致收敛性质在证明问题中的应用，尤其当级数的一般项由定积分表示时，一致收敛级数的逐项微分、逐项积分的性质经常会用到。     

Modeling of ionospheric parameter variations in East Asia during the moderate geomagnetic disturbances

The results of modeling of ionospheric disturbances observed in the East Asian region during moderate storms are presented. The numerical model for ionosphere–plasmasphere coupling developed at the ISTP SB RAS is used to interpret the data of observations at ionospheric stations located in the longitudinal sector of 90–130°E at latitudes from auroral zone to equator. There is obtained a reasonable agreement between measurements and modeling results for winter and equinox. In the summer ionosphere, at the background of high ionization by the solar EUV radiation in the quiet geomagnetic period the meridional thermospheric wind strongly impacts the electron concentration in the middle and auroral ionosphere. The consistent calculations of the thermospheric wind permit to obtain the model results which are closer to summer observations. The actual information about the space-time variations of thermosphere and magnetosphere parameters should be taken into account during storms.

GaInP2外延膜中施主—受主对复合发光带的能量关量

通过变温与变激发强度的近红外光致发光研究了用ＭＯＣＶＤ方法、生长在ＧａＡｓ衬底上的Ｇａ０．５Ｉｎ０．５Ｐ（ＧａＩｎＰ２）外延薄膜的１．１７ｅＶ发射带的发光特性。１．１７ｅＶ发光带性质与０．９９ｅＶ及０．８５ｅＶ发光带的性质有着明显的差别。１．１７ｅＶ发光带的机理可用施主－受主对的复合发光来解释，其中施主－受主对系白处在Ｇａ格位上的Ｓｉ（ＳｉＧａ）及其最邻近的Ｇａ空位（ＶＧａ）所组成，记作ＳｉＧａ－ＶＧａ。考虑到ＧａＩｎＰ２中存在着很强的电子－格子耦合作用及其Ⅲ族子格子为部分有序，所以在施主－受主对复合发光中应计及Ｆｒａｎｃｋ－Ｃｏｎｄｏｎ位移△ＦＣ及该对在等效的部分有序势场中的相互作用能Ｅｓ（ＤＡＰ）。Ｘ—射线衍射实验表明，部分有序结构相当于成分调制，因而可用Ｋｒｏｎｉｇ－Ｐｅｎｎｅｙ模型来计算Ｅｓ（ＤＡＰ）值。这样，我们就导出了施主－受主对复合发光的新的能量表示式。

缔约过失责任问题探讨

缔约过失责任是在合同缔结过程中产生的一种责任形式，是合同法中一项独立的法律制度。缔约过失责任与违约责任有着本质的区别，是基于缔约方违反先合同义务产生的责任形式，其损害对象是对方的信赖利益，而不是合同利益。本文通过对缔约过失责任的论述，阐明其产生的理论基础、成立要件、责任形式以及立法现状和趋势，谨希望能有助于我国相关立法的发展与完善。     

Modeling Multifractality of the Solar Wind

The question of multifractality is of great importance because it allows us to investigate interplanetary hydromagnetic turbulence. The multifractal spectrum has been investigated with Voyager (magnetic field) data in the outer heliosphere and with Helios (plasma) data in the inner heliosphere. We use the Grassberger and Procaccia method that allows calculation of the generalized dimensions of the solar wind attractor in the phase space directly from the cleaned experimental signal. We analyze time series of plasma parameters of the low-speed streams of the solar wind measured in situ by Helios in the inner heliosphere. The resulting spectrum of dimensions shows a multifractal structure of the solar wind attractor. In order to quantify that multifractality, we use a simple analytical model of the dynamical system. Namely, we consider the generalized self-similar baker’s map with two parameters describing uniform compression and natural invariant measure on the attractor of the system. The action of this map exhibits stretching and folding properties leading to sensitive dependence on initial conditions. The obtained solar wind singularity spectrum is consistent with that for the multifractal measure on the weighted baker’s map.
