XMM-Newton study of soft excess X-ray emission in clusters of galaxies

We discuss the detection of soft excess X-ray emission in a sample of 19 clusters of galaxies observed by XMM-Newton. In 6/19 clusters evidence for a soft X-ray excess is found. Four of these clusters show soft X-ray and O VII line emission from gas with a temperature of 0.2 keV. The centroid of this oxygen line is consistent with the redshift of the cluster. The intensity and spatial extend of the soft excess agrees with previous PSPC measurements. These observations are interpreted as emission from warm-hot intergalactic medium filaments, with density enhancements near the cluster centers, consistent with theoretical predictions. In the other two soft excess clusters a non-thermal origin is consistent with the data.

Some aspects of the early evolution of photosynthesis.

The early evolution of a photocatalytic system of the porphyrin type, able to efficiently collect and utilize solar energy for primary electron transfer is discussed. Experimental results concerning some spectral and photochemical properties of the porphyrins, biosynthetic precursors of chlorophyll and their complexes with polymeric templates are reviewed. Protoporphyrin IX associated with pigmented proteinoid is demonstrated to be a favourable candidate for a role of a photosensitizer of the first photosynthetic reaction centers. The origin and early evolution of the photosynthetic electron transfer chain and of the phosphorylating mechanism are discussed with emphasis on the energetic mechanisms of archaebacteria.

Scientific instrumentation of PLANET-A VUV imaging of the hydrogen coma of Halley

The PLANET-A spacecraft to fly by Comet Halley is equipped with a VUV imaging camera which will take pictures of the hydrogen coma of the comet. The camera is composed of a telescopic mirror lens, a VUV image intensifier, two dimensional CCD, and controlling electronic circuits with a microprocessor. In order to eliminate the blur in the image due to the spinning motion of the spacecraft, a special technique called “spinsynchronized charge swift” is used in the CCD driving.

Design of a formation of solar pumped lasers for asteroid deflection

This paper presents the design of a multi-spacecraft system for the deflection of asteroids. Each spacecraft is equipped with a fibre laser and a solar concentrator. The laser induces the sublimation of a portion of the surface of the asteroid, and the resultant jet of gas and debris thrusts the asteroid off its natural course. The main idea is to have a formation of spacecraft flying in the proximity of the asteroid with all the spacecraft beaming to the same location to achieve the required deflection thrust. The paper presents the design of the formation orbits and the multi-objective optimisation of the formation in order to minimise the total mass in space and maximise the deflection of the asteroid. The paper demonstrates how significant deflections can be obtained with relatively small sized, easy-to-control spacecraft.     

飞机过度/不足转向地面转弯操纵特性分析

为分析飞机着陆滑跑过程中的过度/不足转向特性,提高前轮转弯系统的操纵性能,提出了一种具有时变参数的飞机转弯系统的低阶等价模型,并结合系统稳定性的分析与飞行数据,可知在飞机着陆滑跑过程中的某个速度范围内,由于系统偏航角速度命令带宽衰减至零值附近,飞机的过度/不足转向特性曲线十分接近临界稳定速度边界,引起操纵特性严重恶化,由此提出了一种采用偏航角速度的局部负反馈来调节系统带宽的自校正增稳设计.分析与仿真结果说明:该模型能够解决使用高阶模型对飞机该项性能分析复杂的问题,可以作为高阶复杂模型分析的一种补充,且提出的增稳方法能使系统偏航角速度命令带宽保持在期望范围内,改善脚蹬操纵的敏感性,提高系统的操纵性能.      

开缝圆柱缝隙倾斜角对脱落涡的影响

开缝圆柱绕流作为钝体绕流研究的分支,具备很强的应用前景,但是对其复杂的流动现象的物理本质的理解仍不完善。本文采用流动显示技术和粒子成像测速技术(PIV),探究缝隙对开缝圆柱流场结构的影响,在数据处理方面采用本征正交分解(POD)方法对开缝圆柱流场信息进行了重建。实验研究表明:在一定雷诺数范围内,开缝圆柱缝隙的存在从根本上改变了圆柱绕流近区尾流的结构;开缝圆柱脱落涡的脱落频率对开缝圆柱缝隙倾斜角具有一定的敏感性,随着缝隙倾斜角的增大其斯特劳哈尔数逐渐变大,对比发现开缝圆柱狭缝比(缝隙/直径)为0.15时较0.10的斯特劳哈尔数具有更强的稳定性。     

The relation of solar flares to the evolution and proper motions of magnetic fields

The second Action Interval of the FBS coincided with an extended period of gradual evolution in a large complex of activity which served as the target for a coordinated space-ground study. The complex produced a multitude of subflares, half of which were clustered around just a few sites, each with a distinctive magnetic character. The essential flare-producing conditions at these preferred sites were preserved for many hours, even days, despite disruptions by flares and despite the eroding effects that accompany the disintegration of sunspot groups. Three preferred sites were active for the entire Interval, 22–27 May 1980. A comparison of flaring with non-flaring sites which also contained strong concentrations of flux demonstrates the importance of magnetic complexity, flux emergence, and motions at the photospheric level. The most energetic events by far, a chain of five closely homologous flares, erupted within 13 hours at a site where all these factors were conspicuously combined. The incessant activity preceding and during these flares of the fine chromospheric fibrils that covered and surrounded this particularly energetic site indicates reconfiguration of flux tubes in the chromosphere in a matter of minutes. These rapid (2–5 minutes), small (～10 arc-sec) changes are identified with emerging flux and with pores moving rapidly (≥200 m/s) very close to a magnetic neutral line.     

Interpretation of 6 and 21 cm observations of Jupiter

Observations of Jupiter's radio emission were made at a frequency of 1412 MHz (21cm) in 1977 and at 4885 MHz (6cm) in 1978 using the Westerbork Synthesis Radio telescope in the Netherlands. The thermal disk temperatures at these wavelengths yield values of 320±20 K at 21 cm and 220±8 K at 6 cm. The first value requires an overabundance of ammonia by a factor of three with respect to the solar value, the second one is in agreement with the value expected for a convective model atmosphere with solar abundances for all chemical elements. The data at this wavelength however show no or very little limb darkening on the planet, indicating that there is a layered rather than a uniformly mixed atmosphere. A sudden increase in the ammonia abundance by a factor of about three below the 210–220 K level is proposed to explain this fact and also both derived disk temperatures.     

Experimental analysis of the breakage of a liquid bridge under microgravity conditions

The experimental results obtained in experiment “STACO” made on board the Spacelab D-2 are re-visited, with image-analysis tools not then available. The configuration consisted of a liquid bridge between two solid supporting discs. An expected breakage occurred during the experiment. The recorded images are analysed and the measured behaviour compared with the results of a three dimensional model of the liquid dynamics, obtaining a much better fit than with linear models.     

电磁轴承电磁铁单边工作控制方式的实现

由于电磁力与位移及励磁电流的强非线性,使电磁轴承AMB(Active Magnetic Bearing)系统精确建模比较困难,较高的偏置电流增加了系统的功耗,系统的高刚度与大范围稳定又是一对矛盾体.为此,在建模型时,以电磁力为控制量,将电磁力计算公式、电磁铁及功率放大器集成为电磁力构件,避开了电磁力非线性的影响;在基础电流为0.2 A时,采用电磁轴承单边的工作方式,实现了系统的高刚度;以模糊控制方法解决了系统高刚度与大范围稳定的矛盾.仿真与试验表明:以电磁力构件的方式构造电磁轴承模型有较好的精度,采用单边的工作方式降低了系统的功率损耗,采用模糊控制方法实现了系统大范围稳定小范围内高刚度.      

Effects of variations of geomagnetic field on VLF waves induced by beating of two HF waves

Beat wave (BW) high frequency (HF) ionospheric heating experiments were conducted to generate very low frequency (VLF) waves. The VLF waves were registered with a VLF receiver located ～15?km east of the European Incoherent Scatter (EISCAT) heating facility in Tromsø, Norway. A fluxgate magnetometer was used to monitor auroral electrojet current, and ionospheric conditions were measured using a Dynasonde. Correlation coefficients between VLF amplitudes and the deviation of geomagnetic north–south components were calculated. Experimental results show that strong and positive correlation exists the majority of the time, but sometimes no correlation or even a negative correlation occurred. This is consistent with similar past experiments that took place with exclusively AM generation. These results therefore support the conclusion that BW generation of VLF waves is no different than with AM, likely occurring in the D or lower E ionospheric region.     

Chandra imaging spectroscopy of the central region of AWM7

We report on the results of Chandra observations of the galaxy cluster AWM7. The ACIS image reveals new substructures with a spatial extent of more than 8″ (4 kpc at AWM7) near the cD galaxy center, represented by a hard sub-peak and a soft peak. These substructures suggest that a dynamical process related to the formation of the cD galaxy is now taking place. Inside the cluster core within a radius of 2′, annular spectra with every 10″ step are fitted well by single temperature models. The temperature gradually drops from 4.2 keV at a radius of 60 kpc (2′) to 1.8 keV at the cluster center. The radial abundance profile shows a gradient with a peak metallicity of 1.5 solar at a radius of about 15″ (7 kpc). A two-dimensional map shows two high metallicity blob-like regions, which may be the gas expelled from the cD galaxy.

Creation of biological module for self-regulating ecological system by the way of polymerization of composite materials in free space.

The large-size frame of space ship and space station can be created with the use of the technology of the polymerization of fiber-filled composites and a liquid reactionable matrix applied in free space or on the other space body when the space ship or space station will be used during a long period of time. For the polymerization of the station frame the fabric impregnated with a long-life polymer matrix (prepreg) is prepared in terrestrial conditions and, after folding, can be shipped in a compact container to orbit and kept folded on board the station. In due time the prepreg is carried out into free space and unfolded. Then a reaction of matrix polymerization starts. After reaction of polymerization the durable frame is ready for exploitation. After that, the frame can be filled out with air, the apparatus and life support systems. The technology can be used for creation of biological frame as element of self regulating ecological system, and for creation of technological frame which can be used for a production of new materials on Earth orbit in microgravity conditions and on other space bodies (Mars, Moon, asteroids) for unique high price mineral extraction. Based on such technology a future space base on Earth orbit with volume of 10(6) m3 and a crew of 100 astronauts is considered.
