Spartan 201 white light coronagraph experiment

A white light coronagraph was launched into orbit aboard the space shuttle OV 103 (Discovery) on 7 April 1993. This device was one of two instruments included in the SPARTAN 201-1 payload, a completely autonomous sub-satellite deployed from the shuttle for a period of about 47 hours. The WLC system is an externally occulted coronagraph system which incorporates a rotating half-wave plate polarimeter, and the image data is used to infer the brightness, the polarized brightness and the degree of polarization of the white light emission from the solar corona. These data are in turn used to infer estimates of the K- and F-coronal brightnesses and density distributions. We shall present preliminary results of the electron density estimate in the coronal streamer and hole region and describe the methods employed.affiliated to USRA     

Jets and brightenings generated by energy deposition in the middle and upper solar chromosphere

Numerical simulations of energy depositions in the middle and upper solar chromosphere result in ejection of chromospheric material into the corona and heating of the chromospheric gas. These simulations may be capable of describing some of the features seen by the soft X-ray telescope on board theYohkoh satellite.

随机集的概率假设密度粒子滤波

多目标跟踪问题中,当目标数已知时,可以用概率数据互联(PDA)或联合概率数据互联(JPDA)算法。而当目标数未知或随时间变化时,需要对不同目标数的跟踪进行比较。可以把目标集看作随机集进行讨论,目标数N是随机变量。随机集的跟踪通过有限集统计(FISST)理论来完成。文中讨论了用粒子滤波实现跟踪随机集的方法。实验表明,在杂波环境下,粒子滤波可以稳健跟踪目标状态和目标数。     

Effects of the Fabrication Processes of NC-Si:H Films on Their Mechanical Properties

Studies of nanoindentation were performed on nc-Si:H films to evaluate the effects of the fabrication processes on their mechani-cal properties. It is observed that with the decrease of the SiH4 contents, the grain size of the films increases gradually, and as does the crystalline volume fraction. The smaller the grains become, the more homogeneous the films, and the more even the hardness as well as the modulus will be. The hardness and the modulus will increase with the substrate’s temperature rising. The hardness and the modulus of the nc-Si:H films on the Si substrate prove to be higher than those on the glass substrate given the same technology parameters. How-ever, the films on the glass substrate appear to be more homogeneous.     

Dynamics of Coronal Loop Oscillations Recent Improvements and Computational Aspects

We will discuss the observed, heavily damped transversal oscillations of coronal loops. These oscillations are often modeled as transversal kink oscillations in a cylinder. Several features are added to the classical cylindrical model. In our models we include loop curvature, longitudinal density stratification, and highly inhomogeneous radial density profiles. In this paper, we will first give an overview of recently obtained results, both analytically and numerically. After that, we shed a light on the computational aspects of the modeling process. In particular, we will focus on the parallellization of the numerical codes.     

Relativistic MHD Simulations of Jets with Toroidal Magnetic Fields

This paper presents an application of the recent relativistic HLLC approximate Riemann solver by Mignone & Bodo to magnetized flows with vanishing normal component of the magnetic field. The numerical scheme is validated in two dimensions by investigating the propagation of axisymmetric jets with toroidal magnetic fields. The selected jet models show that the HLLC solver yields sharper resolution of contact and shear waves and better convergence properties over the traditional HLL approach.     

水下强声波脉冲引发的空化气泡运动和声辐射

通过建立由等离子体声源、PCB压力传感器和高速相机等构成的实验测量系统,研究了强声波脉冲引发的空化气泡运动和二次声辐射。通过实验,观察到了强声波脉冲特有的波形结构,空化气泡的成长、膨胀和坍缩过程以及气泡坍缩时辐射的声信号。其次,利用Gilmore方程和Bernoulli方程,从理论上对空化气泡的运动和声辐射进行了数值模拟和分析。研究结果表明：（1）在强声波脉冲正压区的作用下,空化气泡将受到压缩并围绕＂准平衡态半径＂振荡;在强声波脉冲负压区的作用下,空化气泡将出现膨胀、坍缩和回弹的物理过程。（2）空化气泡坍缩时周期性辐射的声脉冲持续时间极短,具有＂冲击波＂的特点。     

基于PIV的凝胶模拟液撞击雾化速度场实验研究

为了更好研究凝胶推进剂的雾化,采用时间分辨粒子图像测速(TR-PIV),研究了不同撞击角度(45°,60°,75°,90°和120°)和射流压差(0.4MPa~0.8MPa)对凝胶推进剂雾化速度的影响。实验结果表明:雾化液滴速度对于撞击轴线呈单峰对称分布,距离撞击点越远,雾化液滴速度越小且分布越均匀;增大撞击角和增大射流压差都可提高凝胶推进剂有效撞击速度,即增加撞击后液体动能转换液体破碎所需的能量,雾化质量提高;当有效撞击速度大于27.9m/s时,实验室配置的凝胶推进剂可充分雾化。
