An Orbital Prediction Algorithm for LEO Satellites Based on Optical Observations of Short Arcs at Single Station

The forecasting technique of the target tracking based on the short arcs at single station is an important way to guarantee that high-precision photoelectric theodolites can normally track and capture the targets in unconventional environments. We construct the tracking prediction algorithm based on nonlinear filter, which can provide the guiding data for the closed loop tracking under normal circumstances. At the same time we also construct the target prediction algorithm based on the nonlinear transformation, without valid observational data, which can provide a track guidance for the theodolite and ensure that the targets will not be lost. It is demonstrated that the nonlinear filtering is more effective than the EKF (extended Kalman filter) in the tracking prediction algorithm of the short arcs at single station. The results indicate that the nonlinear filter designed in this paper can be used as the guiding algorithm for the optical tracking equipments. And its guiding accuracy is in the same order of magnitude of the theodolite's random measurement accuracy. When the systematic error of the equipments reaches 50″, the accuracy can achieve 20″ for predictions in 60 s. This still satisfies the requirement of the field of view of the tracking equipments.

Study of a Bistatic Radar System Using VLBI Technologies for Detecting Space Debris and the Experimental Verification of its Validity

Space debris are increasing around the Earth. The observation of space debris is a key issue for the investigation and monitoring of space environment. But the observation opportunities and the detection ability are limited in existing monostatic radar systems. This paper proposes a bistatic radar which is composed of a transmitting station and a receiving-only station. A carrier wave modulated by PN-PSK signals is used in combination with a VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) recorder for range measurement between space debris and stations. The receiving radio wave is processed on the basis of VLBI techniques. Accordingly, the system is shown to have significant advantages over a monostatic radar. We actually formed a bistatic radar system, and observed a satellite in order to experimentally verify the validity. The configuration of the system, data analysis and the experimental results are described.     

Analyses of cosmic ray induced-neutron based on spectrometers operated simultaneously at mid-latitude and Antarctica high-altitude stations during quiet solar activity

In this paper are described a new neutron spectrometer which operate in the Concordia station (Antarctica, Dome C) since December 2015. This instrument complements a network including neutron spectrometers operating in the Pic-du-Midi and the Pico dos Dias. Thus, this work present an analysis of cosmic ray induced-neutron based on spectrometers operated simultaneously in the Pic-du-Midi and the Concordia stations during a quiet solar activity. The both high station platforms allow for investigating the long period dynamics to analyze the spectral variation and effects of local and seasonal changes, but also the short term dynamics during solar flare events. A first part is devoted to analyze the count rates, the spectrum and the neutron fluxes, implying cross-comparisons between data obtained in the both stations. In a second part, measurements analyses were reinforced by modeling based on simulations of atmospheric cascades according to primary spectra which only depend on the solar modulation potential.     

The radio signature of twisted magnetic ropes and reconnection site in the low corona

A solar radio burst on 25 August 1999 with fine structures (FS) at 4.5–7.5 GHz is studied in this paper. The FS started about one minute prior to the main burst. The maximum emission took place at 4–5 GHz for the FS, and at 10–11 GHz for the main burst, respectively. The time profiles at 4.5–7.5 GHz coincide very well with those of hard X-rays (from 25 keV to >300 keV) in both the main burst and the FS, which shows that the same population of accelerated electrons is responsible for both the microwave and hard X-ray bursts. The source of FS is 20 arc sec away from the main source close to a compact dipolar magnetic field, which is confirmed by different time and polarization profiles in the FS and main sources. It is interesting that the FS at 4.5–7.5 GHz are associated with a series of twisted magnetic loops or ropes, which may be modulated by Alfvén waves with a period of 1 s and a spatial wavelength of 10³ km in respect to the typical Alfvén velocity of 10³ km s^–1 in corona. These magnetic ropes may be rooted in the dipole site, which extended into the corona during the event and retracted after the event. Therefore, the FS in this event may show an important signature or precursor for energy release. The magnetic reconnection may be triggered by the interaction of the magnetic ropes at the height corresponding to 5–6 GHz, followed by cascaded energy release close to the foot-point of the magnetic ropes.

VLBI at the Hartebeesthoek radio astronomy Observatory

The Hartebeesthoek Radio Astronomy Observatory has played a key role in the development of very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) in the southern hemisphere since 1971. This paper describes how the VLBI programme evolved and the instrumentation used. Contributions to high resolution mapping of compact radio sources are described, for both the Southern Hemisphere VLBI Experiment, SHEVE, and for Global networks, where HartRAO has made significant improvements in the N-S resolution. The unique geographical location of the telescope has been used to establish the terrestrial reference frame in the southern hemisphere and to measure tectonic motions over the past nine years. The Observatory has also been a fundamental station in extending the celestial reference frame defined by extragalactic radio sources to the southern hemisphere, and results of these programmes are given.
