Time-resolved spectroscopy during the eclipse of short-period Algol systems, has shown their accretion disks to be small, turbulent structures with non-Keplerian velocity fields and asymmetries between the leading and trailing sides of the disk. These transient disks are produced by the impact of the gas stream on the mass-gaining star, and occur in systems where the star is just large enough to ensure the stream collision is complete. These emission line disks and the excess continuum emission do not always occur together. The permanent accretion disks in at least a few of the long-period Algol systems have features in common with the transient disks including non-Keplerian velocity fields. 相似文献

Lomnický Štít (LS, situated at High Tatra mountain, 2634 m above sea level, in the direction of 49.40°N, 20.22°E; geomagnetic vertical cut-off rigidity for cosmic rays ∼4 GV) is a relevant place for cosmic ray studies. After a brief review of the LS research history we present a selection of the results based on the measurements performed by the neutron monitor located at that site. In particular, the characteristics of quasi-periodicities and the diurnal variability amplitude and phase obtained from those data are discussed. 相似文献

We evaluated the astrobiological potential of the major classes of geologic units on Europa with respect to possible biosignatures preservation on the basis of surface geology observations. These observations are independent of any formational model and therefore provide an objective, though preliminary, evaluation. The assessment criteria include high mobility of material, surface concentration of non-ice components, relative youth, textural roughness, and environmental stability. Our review determined that, as feature classes, low-albedo smooth plains, smooth bands, and chaos hold the highest potential, primarily because of their relative young age, the emplacement of low-viscosity material, and indications of material exchange with the subsurface. Some lineaments and impact craters may be promising sites for closer study despite the comparatively lower astrobiological potential of their classes. This assessment will be expanded by multidisciplinary examination of the potential for habitability of specific features. 相似文献

The time required to execute a successful escape maneuver must be deduced from considerations of the following times: time required to gain adequate altitude separation, delay time due to pilot reaction, aircraft servo-system delay, delay due to missed data, delay due to data arrival time, alarm delay due to ? errors, time to stop turning, and time to level off. Since each of these times is a random variable, the required escape time must be determined in a probabilistic sense. By assigning appropriate probability density functions to each of the times involved, formulas are derived for the escape times required by the CAS hazard logic. The results of a simulation of 10 000 aircraft encounters verify the suitability of the formulas. 相似文献

The observed magnetic field configuration and signatures of reconnection in the large solar magnetic eruptions that make major flares and coronal mass ejections and in the much smaller magnetic eruptions that make X-ray jets are illustrated with cartoons and representative observed eruptions. The main reconnection signatures considered are the imaged bright emission from the heated plasma on reconnected field lines. In any of these eruptions, large or small, the magnetic field that drives the eruption and/or that drives the buildup to the eruption is initially a closed bipolar arcade. From the form and configuration of the magnetic field in and around the driving arcade and from the development of the reconnection signatures in coordination with the eruption, we infer that (1) at the onset of reconnection the reconnection current sheet is small compared to the driving arcade, and (2) the current sheet can grow to the size of the driving arcade only after reconnection starts and the unleashed erupting field dynamically forces the current sheet to grow much larger, building it up faster than the reconnection can tear it down. We conjecture that the fundamental reason the quasi-static pre-eruption field is prohibited from having a large current sheet is that the magnetic pressure is much greater than the plasma pressure in the chromosphere and low corona in eruptive solar magnetic fields. 相似文献

The design and operation of the Genesis Solar-Wind Concentrator relies heavily on computer simulations. The computer model
is described here, as well as the solar wind conditions used as simulation inputs, including oxygen charge state, velocity,
thermal, and angular distributions. The simulation included effects such as ion backscattering losses, which also affect the
mass fractionation of the instrument. Calculations were performed for oxygen, the principal element of interest, as well as
for H and He. Ion fluences and oxygen mass fractionation are determined as a function of radius on the target. The results
were used to verify that the instrument was indeed meeting its requirements, and will help prepare for distribution of the
target samples upon return of the instrument to earth. The actual instrumental fractionation will be determined at that time
by comparing solar-wind neon isotope ratios measured in passive collectors with neon in the Concentrator target, and by using
a model similar to the one described here to extrapolate the instrumental fractionation to oxygen isotopes.

The primary goal of the Genesis Mission is to collect solar wind ions and, from their analysis, establish key isotopic ratios
that will help constrain models of solar nebula formation and evolution. The ratios of primary interest include 17O/16O and 18O/16O to ±0.1%, 15N/14N to ±1%, and the Li, Be, and B elemental and isotopic abundances. The required accuracies in N and O ratios cannot be achieved
without concentrating the solar wind and implanting it into low-background target materials that are returned to Earth for
analysis. The Genesis Concentrator is designed to concentrate the heavy ion flux from the solar wind by an average factor
of at least 20 and implant it into a target of ultra-pure, well-characterized materials. High-transparency grids held at high
voltages are used near the aperture to reject >90% of the protons, avoiding damage to the target. Another set of grids and
applied voltages are used to accelerate and focus the remaining ions to implant into the target. The design uses an energy-independent
parabolic ion mirror to focus ions onto a 6.2 cm diameter target of materials selected to contain levels of O and other elements
of interest established and documented to be below 10% of the levels expected from the concentrated solar wind. To optimize
the concentration of the ions, voltages are constantly adjusted based on real-time solar wind speed and temperature measurements
from the Genesis ion monitor. Construction of the Concentrator required new developments in ion optics; materials; and instrument
testing and handling.

The Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) is an instrument on the payload of NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter spacecraft (LRO) (Chin et al., in Space Sci. Rev. 129:391–419, 2007). The instrument is designed to measure the shape of the Moon by measuring precisely the range from the spacecraft to the lunar surface, and incorporating precision orbit determination of LRO, referencing surface ranges to the Moon’s center of mass. LOLA has 5 beams and operates at 28 Hz, with a nominal accuracy of 10 cm. Its primary objective is to produce a global geodetic grid for the Moon to which all other observations can be precisely referenced. 相似文献
