Radiative Transfer (RT) codes with image capability are a fundamental tool for preparing interferometric observations and
for interpreting visibility data. In view of the upcoming VLTI facilities, we present the first comparison of images/visibilities
coming from two 3D codes that use completely different techniques to solve the problem of self-consistent continuum RT. In
addition, we focus on the astrophysical case of a disk distorted by tidal interaction with by-passing stars or internal planets
and investigate for which parameters the distortion can be best detected in the mid-infrared using the mid-infrared interferometric
device MIDI.

A model for second-step electron acceleration in impulsive solar flares is presented. We have extended the theory of stochastic particle acceleration to include Coulomb energy losses which become important at low coronal heights. This inclusion successfully explains the observed steepening of interplanetary electron spectra below 3 MeV following impulsive solar flares taking place at low coronal heights. It also explains the observed spectral differences of relativistic electrons in long-duration and impulsive flares. 相似文献

We present status and results of AstroGrid-D, a joint effort of astrophysicists and computer scientists to employ grid technology for scientific applications. AstroGrid-D provides access to a network of distributed machines with a set of commands as well as software interfaces. It allows simple use of computer and storage facilities and to schedule or monitor compute tasks and data management. It is based on the Globus Toolkit middleware (GT4).Chapter 1 describes the context which led to the demand for advanced software solutions in Astrophysics, and we state the goals of the project.We then present characteristic astrophysical applications that have been implemented on AstroGrid-D in chapter 2. We describe simulations of different complexity, compute-intensive calculations running on multiple sites (Section 2.1), and advanced applications for specific scientific purposes (Section 2.2), such as a connection to robotic telescopes (Section 2.2.3). We can show from these examples how grid execution improves e.g. the scientific workflow.Chapter 3 explains the software tools and services that we adapted or newly developed. Section 3.1 is focused on the administrative aspects of the infrastructure, to manage users and monitor activity. Section 3.2 characterises the central components of our architecture: The AstroGrid-D information service to collect and store metadata, a file management system, the data management system, and a job manager for automatic submission of compute tasks.We summarise the successfully established infrastructure in chapter 4, concluding with our future plans to establish AstroGrid-D as a platform of modern e-Astronomy. 相似文献

Within a framework of 2D magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations, we explore the dynamical regimes initiated by a supernova explosion in a magnetized stratified interstellar medium (ISM). We concentrate on the formation of large-scale magnetic structures and outflows connected with the Parker instability. For the sake of simplicity we only show models with a fixed explosion energy corresponding to a single supernova (SN) occurring in host galaxies with different fixed values of the gravitational acceleration g and different ratios of specific heats. We show that in general, depending on these two parameters, three different regimes are possible: a slowly growing Parker instability on time-scales much longer than the galactic rotation period for small g; the Parker instability growing at roughly the rotation period, which for ratios of specific heats larger than one is accompanied by an outflow resulting from the explosion for intermediate g; and a rapidly growing instability and a strong blow-out flow for large g . By means of numerical simulations and analytical estimates we show that the explosion energy and gravitational acceleration which separate the three regimes scale as Eg 2 ∼constant in the 2D case. We expect that in the 3D case this scaling law is Eg 3 ∼constant . Our simulations demonstrate furthermore that a single SN explosion can lead to the growth of multiple Parker loops in the disc and large-scale magnetic field loops in the halo, extending over 2–3 kpc horizontally and up to 3 kpc vertically above the mid-plane of the disc. 相似文献

Summary Following the empirical rules of frontal analysis on synoptic scale weather maps, a criterion has been derived, which allows an objective determination of the frontal position and the frontal intensity. It can be shown that the extreme value lines of the crossfrontal second derivative of several atmospheric variables are relevant to resolve the structure of the ageostrophic secondary frontal circulation. This is being shown by the application of quasigeostrophic theory (Q-vector approach) as well as with the approach to ageostrophic motion by Phillips' approximation. With the aid of a case study the application of the method with regard to several atmospheric variables is shown. It is shown that the empirical rules may well be interpreted in terms of the dynamical behaviour of fronts.With 17 Figures 相似文献

Summary A fine mesh analysis scheme (grid distance approximately 47 km) has been developed which takes care of mountain ridges of different height, to be able to study cyclogenesis induced by the Alps from the standpoint of observational quantitative vorticity dynamics.The method represents a 2-D univariate statistical interpolation scheme with isotropic correlation function over flat terrain but anisotropic across major mountain ridges like the Alps and Pyrrences.The checked and corrected ALPEX-IIb data set-which is the best data set for the Alpine region concerning time and space resolution as well as quality up to now-is used to produce analyses of basic and derived atmospheric variables. It is shown that structures in the upper meso-scale are resolved with pronounced gradients across mountains.With 9 Figures 相似文献
