Interaction of the X-ray source radiation with the atmosphere of the normal star in close binary systems

The structure of the stellar atmosphere irradiated by an X-ray source is calculated. On the basis of these numerical calculations an approximate theory of the X-ray reprocessing is formulated. The interaction of X-rays with the stellar atmosphere induces a considerable stellar wind. However, the main part of the X-ray energy is reemitted.The optical appearances of the close binary system including an X-ray source are discussed. The light curve of such a system is obtained. The mass-loss rate of a star with the size close to that of its Roche lobe is evaluated in the isothermal approximation. Most likely, the accretion of matter on to a neutron star, or a black hole, is the cause of the X-ray luminosity. The accreting matter is supplied with the mass outflow from the normal component induced by X-rays. The X-ray luminosity is shown to have an upper limit stipulated by the outflow saturation.The model of HZ Her=Her X1 system is constructed which accounts for the observed light curve. The optical appearances of the system are due to the X-ray heating of the face of the X-ray source area of the normal star. The radiation of this hot area is partly reflected by the surface of the disc around the X-ray source. The thin disc is formed by the accretion of matter by the X-ray source. The effective reflection of hard X-rays (hv15–30 keV) by the stellar surface is considered. This phenomenon makes it possible to detect those X-ray pulsars whose beam does not intercept the Earth.The model of Sco X1 as a black hole in a close binary system is discussed.     

时间尺度的分域递推模型

建立时间尺度是时间测量的目的之一．实时原子时则要求对时间尺度进行必要的预测．小波分析是近年来迅速发展起来的一门学科,它可以对信号在不同的分辨率下进行分析,凡是传统的Fourier分析可以应用的地方,小波分析都可以得到应用．基于小波分析建立了一种时间尺度分域递推模型,这种方法既不同于ARMA（p,q）模型,又有别于卡尔曼滤波方法．ARMA模型要求过程是平稳随机的,而卡尔曼滤波方法虽然不要求过程是平稳的,但它预测的精度有限．分城递推模型将信号在不同的频率尺度进行正交分解,在各个尺度上对小波变换系数进行建模．最后根据陕西天文台守时实验室的实测数据,验证了分域递推模型,ARMA模型一步预测误差10ns,而分域递推模型五步预测误差平均为4．5ns．结果表明这种方法简单而切实可行,分域递推模型的预测精度优于其它方法．     

Rayleigh-Taylor instability of ionized viscous fluids with FLR-corrections and surface-tension

The problem of Rayleigh-Taylor instability of superposed viscous magnetized fluids through porous medium is investigated in a partially-ionized medium. The fluid has ionized and neutralized particle components interacting with collisions. The effect of surface tension on R-T instability is also included in the present problem. The magnetohydrodynamic equations are modified for finite-Larmor radius corrections which is in the form of tensor. The equations of problem are linearized and using appropriate boundary condition, general dispersion relation is derived for two superposed fluids separated by horizontal boundary. The first part of the dispersion relation gives stable mode and condition is investigated using Hurwitz conditions. The second part of the dispersion relation shows that the growth rate of unstable system is reduced due to FLR corrections, viscosity, and collisional frequency of the neutrals. The role of surface tension on the system is also discussed.     

Effect of rotation on magnetogravitational instability of finite conducting gas in presence of suspended particles

The effect of rotation on the self-gravitational instability of an infinite homogeneous magnetised gas-particle medium in the presence of suspended particles is investigated. The conductivity of the medium is assumed to be finite. The equations of the problem are linearized and the general dispersion relation is obtained. The rotation is assumed along two different directions separately and separate dispersion relation for each case is obtained. The dispersion relation for propagation parallel and perpendicular to the uniform magnetic field along with rotation is derived. It is found that in presence of suspended particles, magnetic field, finite conductivity, rotation and viscosity, Jeans's criterion determines the condition of gravitational instability of gas-particle medium.     

The stability of force-free magnetic fields with cylindrical symmetry in the context of solar flares

The problem of the accumulation and storage of the energy released in solar flares is discussed; it is proposed that convective energy of the photosphere is transformed into magnetic energy of the chromosphere and corona. The consequences of a large ratio of magnetic pressure to gas pressure are investigated. In this case the field must be approximately force-free. The only suitable force-free fields which allow an analytical treatment are those of cylindrical symmetry. The stability of these fields is studied with the energy principle. It is shown that they are always unstable due to kink type instabilities. The shape of the unstable perturbations is described in detail and an upper limit for their amplitude is estimated. The consequences for the proposed mechanism of energy storage are briefly discussed.     

Atmospheric effect on the upwelling radiation at the top of the atmosphere over a stream

A new version is adopted for the evaluation of the upwelling radiation from atmosphere bounded by the surface, where the surface is composed of two half semi-infinite Lambert surfaces and a stream is inserted between them. The contrast of the stream is discussed with respect to the atmospheric effect. The width of the stream is considered to be 0.5, 1, and 3km; The solar and observational direction is located in the normal plane to the stream. The observational site is located at altitude 30km. The horizontal distance of observational site to the stream is fixed to 6.28 . The atmosphere is assumed to be homogeneous, which is composed of aerosol and molecules, where the model aerosol is of the oceanic type.In the computational procedure, a probability of radiation interacting with respective half surfaces and the stream are calculated based on the assumption of single scattering in the atmosphere, where isotropic scattering is undertaken. By use of this probability, the emergent radiation at the top of the atmosphere is calculated approximately by considering the radiative interactions between atmosphere and surfaces up to twice. The numerical simulation exhibits the extraordinary effect near the stream. The contrast of the stream depends upon the albedo of the surrounding surfaces. It increases with the increase of the stream width and decreases with the optical thickness.

Large cometary grains – their destruction and changes in the luminosity of comets

The catastrophic thermodynamic destruction of large cometary heterogeneous grains lying on the surface of a comet nucleus is examined. The core–mantle grain-structure model is assumed. Grain fragmentation as an explanation of sudden changes in cometary brightness is proposed. The approach presented to the problem of cometary outbursts is a development of a previous author's paper. The proposed mechanism is based on the idea of thermodynamical destruction of heterogeneous cometary grains. Numerical simulations have been carried out for a wide range of values of physical characteristics of cometary material. The results obtained are consistent with observational data. The main conclusion of this paper is that thermodynamical fragmentation of large grains can explain variations in brightness and also outbursts of comets.     

Simulation of atmospheric effect on the emergent radiation over a circular lake

The upwelling radiation at the top of the atmosphere is computed over a circular lake which is located in the uniform Lambert surface, using a modified version of the doubling-adding method. The radiance over the lake is discussed with respect to the atmospheric effect. The radius of the lake is assumed to be 0.5, 1, and 3 km. The observational site is located at altitude 30 km. The zenith of the observational site is located in the plane which is determined by the zenith of the center of the lake and incident solar direction. The zenith angle of the observational site to the center of the lake is fixed to 6.28°. The atmosphere is assumed to be homogeneous, which is composed of aerosol and molecule, where the model aerosol is of the oceanic or the water soluble types.Numerical simulation exhibits an extraordinary effect near the lake. The radiance of the lake against the surrounding depends upon the albedo of the surrounding surface. It increases with the increase of the size of the lake and decreases with the optical thickness. At large optical depth, the radiance depends upon the aerosol characteristics. It shows little dependence on the solar zenith angle if less than 60°.

Nonthermal electrons in the thick-target reverse-current model for hard X-ray bremsstrahlung

The behaviour of the accelerated electrons escaping from a high-temperature source of primary energy in a solar flare is investigated. The direct current of fast electrons is supposed to be balanced by the reverse current of thermal electrons in the ambient colder plasma inside flare loops. The self-consistent kinetic problem is formulated; and the reverse-current electric field and the fast electron distribution function are found from its solution. The X-ray bremsstrahlung polarization is then calculated from the distribution function. The difference of results from those in the case of thermal runaway electrons (Diakonov and Somov, 1988) is discussed. The solutions with and without account of the affect of a reverse-current electric field are also compared.     

Radiative transfer in spectral lines by noncoherent scattering

The functional analytic method of solution is applied to investigation of the radiative transfer equation in spectral lines. A problem of scattering in the spectral line with the frequency redistribution in anisotropic-scattering infinite and semi-infinite media is considered. Continuum absorption in the line is also taken into account.The solution is presented as the exponential function of the operatorA and the functional calculus is developed. The eigenfunction and the expansion coefficients, in terms of which the explicit solution is expressed, have been found. The nonlinear equation and the explicit expressions for theX-function are derived. The albedo problem with the determined expansion coefficients and the intensity of the emergent radiation is given as an example.
