射电类星体黑洞自旋与射电噪相关性研究

黑洞自旋及其参量能提供射电类星体射电噪度的信息。从文献资料中收集了69个射电类星体源。这些源包含了37个陡谱射电类星体(SSRQs),32个平谱射电类星体(FSRQs)。通过样本数据研究黑洞自旋能量与射电类星体射电噪的相关性。研究结果表明:(1)37个陡谱射电类星体与射电噪存在明显的相关性。这种相关性在3种磁场条件下都存在(B=BEDD,B=104G,B∝j);(2)陡谱射电类星体与射电噪之间的相关性不受相对论聚束效应的影响;(3)32个平谱射电类星体与射电噪之间不存在相关性,这说明黑洞自旋与射电噪的相关性与射电类星体的类型有很大关系;(4)陡谱射电类星体黑洞自旋与射电噪的强相关性表明,黑洞自旋能量在一定程度上给出陡谱射电类星体射电噪度的信息。这些研究结果与其他人提出的理论是一致的。     

射电类星体黑洞质量和射电特性的研究

收集了117个类星体(20个射电宁静类星体和97个射电噪类星体)的红移、热光度、H_β发射线宽度、5 100 A的单色光度、射电噪度.利用反响映射法计算了样本的黑洞质量和爱丁顿比,利用总的5 GHz流量密度计算出射电光度.分析了它们之间的相关性,得到的结论如下:(1)射电宁静类星体的黑洞质量和热光度、射电噪度、射电光度之间具有弱相关性,而射电噪类星体黑洞质量和热光度、射电噪度、射电光度之间具有强相关性;(2)射电宁静类星体热光度和射电光度、5 100 A的单色光度之间具有弱的相关性,而射电噪类星体热光度和射电光度、5 100 A的单色光度之间具有强的相关性;(3)射电宁静和射电噪类星体的黑洞质量、发射线宽度和爱丁顿比分布有差异.基于这些结果得到:射电宁静和射电噪类星体发射线宽度的差异可能是导致它们黑洞质量不同的原因;射电宁静和射电噪类星体本质的不同是由于内秉物理性质的不同造成的;黑洞质量、黑洞自旋、爱丁顿比和寄主星系形态是解释射电噪度起源和双峰状分布的重要参量;射电喷流和盘的吸积率之间具有紧密的关系.     

类星体的空间分布和与星系成协的统计研究及其演化意义

本文采用了三组具有代表性的类星体观测资料:(1)类星体第二总表,(2)赤纬-40°天区类星体,(3)室女座星系团区类星体。分析的内容包括:类星体红移和星等的大尺度分布,类星体在局部天区内的空间分布,类星体与场星系以及与星系团中亮星系的成协性。 得到的初步结果是:(1)类星体就整体来说其红移和星等在各种尺度上的分布是不均匀的;(2)在局部天区内这种不均匀性表现得更为显著;(3)类星体与场星系的普遍成协性不明显;(4)类星体与星系团中亮星系普遍成协的可能性是统计显著的;(5)类星体在演化上应该具有不同的起源。就其本质来说很可能是宇宙论性和非宇宙论性两者兼之。     

跟类星体红移宇宙学解释相符合的证据

分析类星体吸收线红移和发射线红移的特征。我们从Hewitt和Burbidge ( 1 993 )的星表中选择了吸收线红移和发射线红移都同时提供的类星体 ,得到了包含 4 0 1个对象的样本。这是至今对类星体红移研究的最大样本。我们从吸收线红移和发射线红移之间的关系图发现绝大多数 ( 93 .6% )对象的吸收线红移都小于相应的发射线红移。这个结论人们在 2 0世纪 70年代已经从很小的类星体样本 (样本大小 50左右 )中得到。本文进一步支持了这个结论。它表明类星体红移确实是距离的指示器。这跟宇宙学对类星体红移的解释是一致的

A study of optically featureless objects from the EC Survey: searching for new southern BL Lac objects

In an attempt to discover new southern BL Lac objects, 14 optically featureless objects from the Edinburgh–Cape Survey were selected. Optical polarimetry and spectroscopy, radio and IR observations were carried out in order to improve their classifications. The 14 objects were examined according to special criteria that are described. Their UBV and JHK colour–colour distributions, spectrograms, radio observations and visible-region polarimetry were utilized to conclude that the selected objects are not BL Lacs. Most of them are apparently not extragalactic objects. It is suggested that four of the 14 candidates are DC white dwarfs, one is a QSO, three are DA white dwarfs or sdB subdwarfs, one is a cataclysmic variable, one is a DAO/sdO and another is possibly a DA+dM binary (composite system with a 'primary' hot white dwarf and a 'secondary' M-type main-sequence dwarf) or a cataclysmic variable. One object is likely to be a subdwarf, while two remain unclassifiable.     

Optical and radio studies of radio sources

We present the classification of optical identifications and radio spectra of six radio sources from a complete (in flux density) sample in the declination range 10° to 12°30′ (J2000.0). The observations were carried out with the 6-m Special Astrophysical Observatory telescope (Russia) in the wavelength range 3600–10000 Å, the 2.1-m GHAO telescope (Mexico) in the range 4200–9000 Å, and the RATAN-600 radio telescope in the frequency range 0.97–21.7 GHz. Three of the six objects under study are classified as quasars, one is a BL Lac object, one is an absorption-line radio galaxy, and one is an emission-line radio galaxy. Five objects have flat radio spectra, and one object has a power-law radio spectrum. All of the radio sources identified as quasars or BL Lac objects show variable radio flux densities. The spectra of three objects were separated into extended and compact components.     

Optical identification of the source IGR J08390-4833 from the INTEGRAL all-sky survey

Results of the optical identification of the hard X-ray source IGR J08390-4833 recently discovered in the INTEGRAL all-sky survey are presented. We show that the source is most likely a cataclysmic variable, i.e., an accreting white dwarf in a binary. Analysis of its optical light curve clearly reveals intrinsic variability on timescales of the order of an hour or longer. However, the short time of the source’s optical observations does not allow a definitive conclusion about the periodicity of the detected variability to be reached. Further optical and X-ray observations are required for a more accurate classification of the source.     

Optical Identifications of X—ray Selected AGNs

During the ROSAT All-Sky Survey (RASS; Voges 1992, 1997) about 80,000 X-ray sourceswith a detection likelihood 2 10 were detected, from which 18,811 sources having a PSPC countrate larger than 0.05 ets s--1 and detection likelihood 3 15 were compiled in the RASS-BSC(VOges et al. 1996a). More than 65% RASS sources remain unidentified (Voges et al. 1996b).The optical spectroscopic study of these RASS sources is essential for understanding them moreclearly.The idelltification of X-…     

Observational capabilities of the new medium- and low-resolution spectrograph at the 1.6-m telescope of the Sayan Observatory

The capabilities of the new medium- and low-resolution spectrograph installed recently on the 1.6-m AZT-33IK telescope at the Sayan Observatory of the Institute of Solar–Terrestrial Physics to solve the problems of ground-based optical support for the future all-skyX-ray survey of the SRGobservatory are discussed. Results of the test observations of galaxy clusters, active galactic nuclei (AGNs) and quasars, and cataclysmic variables performed immediately after the installation of the spectrograph on the telescope are presented. The results of these observations show that the AZT-33IK telescope equipped with the new medium- and low-resolution spectrograph can provide a substantial fraction of the necessary optical observations in the program of ground-based optical support for the all-sky survey of the SRG observatory.     

The short-period supersoft source in M31

We show that the recently discovered short period supersoft source in M31 is probably a progenitor of a magnetic cataclysmic variable (CV). The white dwarf spins asynchronously because of the current high accretion rate. However its fieldstrength is typical of an AM Herculis system, which is what it will ultimately become. We discuss the relevance of this system to CV evolution, and its relation to some particular CVs with special characteristics.     

Optical spectra of four objects identified with variable radio sources

We obtained optical spectra of four objects identified with variable radio sources. Three objects (0029+0554, 0400+0550, 2245+0500) were found to be quasars with redshifts of 1.314, 0.761, and 1.091. One object (2349+0534) has a continuum spectrum characteristic of BL Lac objects. We analyze spectra of the radio sources in the range 0.97–21.7 GHz for the epoch 1997 and in the range 3.9–11.1 GHz for the epoch 1990, as well as the pattern of variability of their flux densities on time scales of 1.5 and 7 years.     

Short-term brightness variations of V747 Cyg

We have conducted high-speed photometric observations of the suspected cataclysmic variable V747 Cyg. The literature data about the spectra of this star are conflicting. Zwitter and Munari [A&AS 107 (1994) 503] obtained spectroscopic observations which confirmed the cataclysmic variable nature of V747 Cyg, whereas Downes et al. [AJ 110 (1995) 1824] have concluded that this object may be a Be + M binary rather than a cataclysmic variable. Our observations revealed the complete absence of the rapid flickering in this star at a millimagnitude level. This phenomenon is to be inherent in all cataclysmic variables. Instead, the lightcurves of V747 Cyg showed probably periodic smooth low-amplitude variations that were visible during each observational night. When V747 Cyg was observed in two colours simultaneously, these variations had the equal phases and amplitudes. A periodogram analysis revealed probable periods of 5.77, 7.41 and 7.59 h. These periods and the amplitude as well as the oscillation behaviour in the different colours are typical of variable Be stars. Hence, V747 Cyg may be a variable Be star but not a cataclysmic variable.     

类星体红移分布的高频周期

本文对Ｖｅｒｏｎ－Ｃｅｔｔｙ和Ｖｅｒｏｎ类星体表中３１９７颗红移精度为０．００１的类星体做了红移分布的周期性分析。结果表明：类星体红移值在几个方向上存在高频波动的周期性分布，且置信度水平较高。根据我们的分析，这种周期性不可能完全是由于选择效应引起的。因此，类星体在大尺度上的分布很可能具有大约５０Ｍｐｃ的周期涨落。
