Simultaneous observations of the plasma density on the same field line by the CPMN ground magnetometers and the Cluster satellites

By applying the cross-phase method and the amplitude-ratio method to magnetic field data obtained from two ground stations located close to each other, we can determine the frequency of the field line resonance (FLR), or the field line eigenfrequency, for the field line running through the midpoint of the two stations. From thus identified FLR frequency we can estimate the equatorial plasma mass density (ρ)$(\rho )$ by using the T05s magnetospheric field model [Tsyganenko, N.A., Sitnov, M.I. Modeling the dynamics of the inner magnetosphere during strong geomagnetic storms, J. Geophys. Res. 110, A03208, 2005] and the equation of Singer et al. [Singer, H.J., Southwood, D.J., Walker, R.J., Kivelson, M.G. Alfven wave resonances in a realistic magnetospheric magnetic field geometry, J. Geophys. Res. 86 (A6) 4589–4596, 1981].     

Generation of kinetic Alfvén waves by velocity shear instability on auroral field lines

Ion beams observed in the plasma sheet boundary layer (PSBL), cusp, and on the auroral zone field lines are expected to have spatial gradients in their drift velocity. Generation of kinetic Alfvén waves by velocity shear of the ion beams is discussed. It is shown that a hot ion beam can excite both a resonant kinetic Alfvén wave instability and a non-resonant coupled Alfvén-ion acoustic instability. For typical parameters, observed on the auroral field lines in the altitude range of 5–7 R_E (where R_E is the Earth’s radius), the frequency of the velocity shear modes, in the satellite frame of reference, lie in the ultra-low frequency (ULF) range. The noise due to velocity shear driven Alfvén modes is electromagnetic in nature, and has a finite parallel electric field component.     

Proton lateral broadening distribution comparisons between GRNTRN,MCNPX, and laboratory beam measurements

Recent developments in NASA’s deterministic High charge (Z) and Energy TRaNsport (HZETRN) code have included lateral broadening of primary ion beams due to small-angle multiple Coulomb scattering, and coupling of the ion-nuclear scattering interactions with energy loss and straggling. This new version of HZETRN is based on Green function methods, called GRNTRN, and is suitable for modeling transport with both space environment and laboratory boundary conditions. Multiple scattering processes are a necessary extension to GRNTRN in order to accurately model ion beam experiments, to simulate the physical and biological-effective radiation dose, and to develop new methods and strategies for light-ion radiation therapy. In this paper we compare GRNTRN simulations of proton lateral broadening distributions with beam measurements taken at Loma Linda University Proton Therapy Facility. The simulated and measured lateral broadening distributions are compared for a 250 MeV proton beam on aluminum, polyethylene, polystyrene, bone substitute, iron, and lead target materials. The GRNTRN results are also compared to simulations from the Monte Carlo MCNPX code for the same projectile-target combinations described above.

行星际尘粒中锂同位素丰度与太阳星云演化的关系

1引言构成太阳系的大多数元素都经历过恒星演化过程，但3种轻元素Li，Be和B极为脆弱，在绝大多数恒星内部的高温、高密度和剧烈变动的条件下，很快就会分解．太阳系的早期阶段，太阳星云可能是由大爆炸产生的1H、2H、3He、4He和7Li及附近超新星爆发产生的C、N、O等构成[1]，而6Li、Be、B是以后由宇宙射线粒子轰击附近星际和行星际的C、N、O等的核产生[2]．因为Li的同位素丰度的一部分是由大爆炸生成，一部分是由宇宙射线与星际介质核反应产生，因此它的丰度与宇宙射线暴露时间有关．1991年，文献间报导过在行星际尘粒中发现Li、Be和…     

离子推力器高效高可靠性屏栅电源设计

为了进一步提高离子推力器的可靠性和使用寿命,采用6个电源模块串联输出的方法设计了高效高可靠性的屏栅电源试验样机,每个模块采用全桥LLC谐振变换器,并对屏栅电源模块的性能、打火时开关管的瞬态电流应力分别进行了测试研究。结果表明：屏栅电源模块采用全桥LLC谐振变换器,可以实现零电压开通零电流关断（ZVSZCS）,整个电源的转换效率提高到96.9%;单个电源模块输出电压为210V,电源模块内部没有大于250V 的交流电压峰值,简化了高压绝缘设计的难度;变换器初级较大谐振电感的限流作用使得推力器出现打火时,开关器件瞬态电流仅为40A。该设计可以有效提高屏栅电源的效率和可靠性,可以应用于小行星探测等深空探测航天器的电推进系统。     

阳极电流和屏栅电压对5kW离子推力器性能的影响

为了研究5kW离子推力器功率宽范围工作能力,采用试验的方法得到阳极电流和屏栅电压与其性能的影响关系。研究结果表明：离子束流随阳极电流增大呈线性增大。当屏栅电压增加时,推力器离子束流先增加然后趋于稳定,加速栅电流单调减小。推力随功率增大呈线性增长,比冲随功率的增大呈非线性增长,在功率308W~4813W下实现了推力12mN~184mN,比冲1817s~3538s, 效率34%~67%的宽范围调节。同时推力器效率随功率增大逐渐增大,并在2902W时存在明显拐点,在实际在轨应用中要根据任务需求确定最佳工作区间提高推力器性能和效率。     

20cm口径离子推力器性能建模与仿真

为了分析国内首台通过在轨飞行测试的20cm离子推力器栅极系统束流离子运行特性和推力器性能,针对该推力器栅极系统建立了束流引出二维数值仿真计算模型,利用PIC/MCC数值仿真计算方法,模拟束流引出过程中带电粒子在电场作用下的加速、聚焦与引出、带电粒子与中性原子之间的相互作用、电场和等离子体流场之间的相互耦合等过程。数值计算结果显示,屏栅截获的离子电流约为1.71×10 -4 A,加速栅截获的电流和CEX离子电流分别为0 A和9.11×10 -7 A,因此,加速栅电流的主要来源是冲击到其表面的CEX离子,证明了加速栅电流的主要来源是冲击到其表面的CEX离子,计算的加速栅截获电流与束流电流之比约为0.114%。试验测得推力器运行4000h期间,电子反流极限电压始终为75~90〖KG*9〗V,其变化幅度很小,这意味着中和器发射的电子在栅极系统中的反流不会导致其发生失效。理论计算结果与试验测试值相比,误差约为1.08%。〖JP〗
