太阳圆面活动体光谱分析方法的比较

在研究暗条、耀斑等日面活动体的光谱时，观测谱线上都叠加上一定强度的背景光影响。如何消去这种影响对分析结果影响较大。目前，经典的方法有两大类：第一类是减法消去法，这种方法广泛为国内学者采用；第二类方法是除法消去法，即国外学者提出的（微）方模型方法。本文通过误差传递方法，比较了上述二大类方法，结果发现，所有方法的误差传递形式都是一样的，但（微）方模型的背景光误差可能要小些，至少从理论上讲要处理得合理些     

用α—修正平均平滑月掩星观测资料

因为短的积分时间（0^s.001）和月球附近很强的背景光这度，月掩星观测资料通常需要进行某种处理以除去噪声，而α-彩好的消除噪声能力，可以用来平滑月掩星观测资料，很少甚至完全不影响掩星的衍射图象。本文介绍了α-修正平均方法并指出对α=0，ι=9的α-修下平均是对月掩星观测资料的最佳滤波器。

银河系中球状星团的空间分布和运动轨道

选用银河系中29个累积光谱型为F型的球状星团样本。根据它们的视向速度，绝对自行等参数，归算处理后得出了各样本星团的空间分布和运动速度。并以此作为初始条件，在给定的3种银河系引力势模型中，采用数值积分方法计算出各样本星团的运动轨道。计算结果表明：（1）大部分样本星团都位于银心距5kpc-10kpc的范围内，相对于银心呈球对称分布，它们的速度也呈椭球分布；（2）29个样本星团按其金属度大小和基本性发类，可分属HB和MP两个次系，且样本星团数随金属度[Fe/H]而变化，在[Fe/H]＝－1．6处出现一个峰值；（3）所有样本星团的轨道运动都呈周期性，大都在一个有界而不封闭的周期轨道上运动，其最大银心距大都在40kpc以内。不同的引力势模型对球状星团轨道的具体形态影响不大，在给定的引力势模型下，当某些星团的运动轨道穿越距银心1kpc附近的区域时会出现“混沌”行为。而样本星团的金属度与其轨道形态之间的相关性并不明显；（4）29个样本星团的轨道半长轴、远银心距和方位周期随金属度的变化规律基本相似。轨道偏心率与金属度有关，对于所选的晕族样本星团而言，大约有24％的样本星团的轨道偏心率低于0．4，不同的引力势模型对近银心距、偏心率和参数的不确定度等量影响较小，但是对远银心距、径向周期和方位周期等参数影响较为明显。

The gamma-ray luminosity of spiral galaxies. Its evolution and its contribution to the diffuse background above 100 MeV

The contribution of normal spiral galaxies to the high galactic latitude gamma-ray background >100 MeV is examined in the light of the estimates of its flux from the SAS-II measurements. The gamma-ray luminosity of each object is inferred from the known Milky Way value normalized to the corresponding optical quantity. Several possibilities are considered for the responsible physical production mechanism both diffuse and localized; they are then set to evolve with the galactic age according to three well-known evolutionary models. A final space-time integration leads to results which are expressed in the same unit as the measured background. It is seen that the model presented here can play an important role in the region > 100 MeV where the information on the spectral shape of the radiation is still very poor. Experimental tests for future gamma-ray observations are presented.     

22周上升相日面各经度带的活动规律

本文回顾了１９８３年以来一些对太阳活动的谱分析结果。大致可分为两种规律：在太阳活动１１年周期的上升相一般呈现８０天左右的周期。下降相呈现１５０天左右的周期。这些规律均是由太阳全日面总体活动指数得到的谱分析结果。文中将第２２周上升段（１９８７．１．１—１９８８．７．３１）的太阳黑子群和Ｘ射线耀斑按经度带作了极大熵谱估计。结果表明，各经度带的活动规律不同，同一经度带内，太阳黑子群和Ｘ射线耀斑的出现规律也不尽相同。这种将事件按经度带分布得到的活动规律对事件本身的中期预报将会有实际应用价值。     

Determination of the solar X-ray spectrum by using the atmospheric extinction

Indications about the spectral distribution of the solar radiation below 20 Å are obtained by comparing the atmospheric extinction of the solar radiation measured by three ion chambers in the satellites SOLRAD 7 and 8.The data refer to July 5, 6 and 8, 1965 and July 23, 1966 when the satellites passed from light to darkness into or out of the earth's shadow.The spectral intensity distribution is shown for the four days, and a comparison is made between active and quiet days.     

VIRGO: Experiment for helioseismology and solar irradiance monitoring

The scientific objective of the VIRGO experiment (Variability of solar IRradiance and Gravity Oscillations) is to determine the characteristics of pressure and internal gravity oscillations by observing irradiance and radiance variations, to measure the solar total and spectral irradiance and to quantify their variability over periods of days to the duration of the mission. With these data helioseismological methods can be used to probe the solar interior. Certain characteristics of convection and its interaction with magnetic fields, related to, for example, activity, will be studied from the results of the irradiance monitoring and from the comparison of amplitudes and phases of the oscillations as manifest in brightness from VIRGO, in velocity from GOLF, and in both velocity and continuum intensity from SOI/MDI. The VIRGO experiment contains two different active-cavity radiometers for monitoring the solar constant, two three-channel sunphotometers (SPM) for the measurement of the spectral irradiance at 402, 500 and 862 nm, and a low-resolution imager (LOI) with 12 pixels, for the measurement of the radiance distribution over the solar disk at 500 um. In this paper the scientific objectives of VIRGO are presented, the instruments and the data acquisition and control system are described in detail, and their measured performance is given.died 13 October 1994     

The evolution of the water distribution in a viscous protoplanetary disk

Astronomical observations have shown that protoplanetary disks are dynamic objects through which mass is transported and accreted by the central star. This transport causes the disks to decrease in mass and cool over time, and such evolution is expected to have occurred in our own solar nebula. Age dating of meteorite constituents shows that their creation, evolution, and accumulation occupied several Myr, and over this time disk properties would evolve significantly. Moreover, on this timescale, solid particles decouple from the gas in the disk and their evolution follows a different path. It is in this context that we must understand how our own solar nebula evolved and what effects this evolution had on the primitive materials contained within it. Here we present a model which tracks how the distribution of water changes in an evolving disk as the water-bearing species experience condensation, accretion, transport, collisional destruction, and vaporization. Because solids are transported in a disk at different rates depending on their sizes, the motions will lead to water being concentrated in some regions of a disk and depleted in others. These enhancements and depletions are consistent with the conditions needed to explain some aspects of the chemistry of chondritic meteorites and formation of giant planets. The levels of concentration and depletion, as well as their locations, depend strongly on the combined effects of the gaseous disk evolution, the formation of rapidly migrating rubble, and the growth of immobile planetesimals. Understanding how these processes operate simultaneously is critical to developing our models for meteorite parent body formation in the Solar System and giant planet formation throughout the galaxy. We present examples of evolution under a range of plausible assumptions and demonstrate how the chemical evolution of the inner region of a protoplanetary disk is intimately connected to the physical processes which occur in the outer regions.     

Comparison of the composition of the Tempel 1 ejecta to the dust in Comet C/Hale-Bopp 1995 O1 and YSO HD 100546

Spitzer Infrared Spectrograph observations of the Deep Impact experiment in July 2005 have created a new paradigm for understanding the infrared spectroscopy of primitive solar nebular (PSN) material—the ejecta spectrum is the most detailed ever observed in cometary material. Here we take the composition model for the material excavated from Comet 9P/Tempel 1's interior and successfully apply it to Infrared Space Observatory spectra of material emitted from Comet C/1995 O1 (Hale-Bopp) and the circumstellar material found around the young stellar object HD 100546. Comparison of our results with analyses of the cometary material returned by the Stardust spacecraft from Comet 81P/Wild 2, the in situ Halley flyby measurements, and the Deep Impact data return provides a fundamental cross-check for the spectral decomposition models presented here. We find similar emission signatures due to silicates, carbonates, phyllosilicates, water ice, amorphous carbon, and sulfides in the two ISO-observed systems but there are significant differences as well. Compared to Tempel 1, no Fe-rich olivines and few crystalline pyroxenes are found in Hale-Bopp and HD 100546. The YSO also lacks amorphous olivine, while being super-rich in amorphous pyroxene. All three systems show substantial emission due to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. The silicate and PAH material in Hale-Bopp is clearly less processed than in Tempel 1, indicating an earlier age of formation for Hale-Bopp. The observed material around HD 100546 is located ∼13 AU from the central source, and demonstrates an unusual composition due to either a very different, non-solar starting mix of silicates or due to disk material processing during formation of the interior disk cavity and planet(s) in the system.     

High-spectral-resolution solar irradiance in the 184.5 to 232.5 nm range from the SOLSPEC and UVSP spectrometers

The study of the minor constituents of the planetary atmospheres from the analysis of the scattered light properties requires the knowledge of the absolute incident solar irradiance at high resolution. The data were obtained from the UVSP experiment on board the Solar Maximum Mission satellite in the 184.5–232.5 nm spectral range. We have reconstituted the solar spectrum measured in three different regions of the solar disk with a spectral resolution of 0.01 nm and a spatial resolution of 3 arc sec. The wavelength scale was determined with a standard deviation of 0.0025 nm. The comparison of the relative intensities in three locations of the solar disk with those obtained by other authors allowed us to determine these positions accurately and to derive the integrated spectrum of the whole disk. Finally, the resulting spectrum has been expressed in absolute units using the spectral irradiance by the SOLSPEC and SUSIM spectrometers, respectively operated with the ATLAS 1 mission and from the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite. We obtained the absolute solar irradiance with an accuracy of 10% in the 184.5–232.5 nm spectral range with a spectral resolution of 0.01 nm for the first time using data from space observations.

The dynamics of solar sails with a non-point source of radiation pressure

The form of the solar radiation pressure on a heliocentric orbiting solar sail is obtained for a finite angular sized and limb darkened solar disk by the use of the radiation pressure tensor. It is found that the usual inverse square variation of the solar radiation pressure is modified by the finite angular size, and to a lesser extent by the solar limb darkening. The actual magnitude of the modification is in itself small, except at close heliocentric distances. However, its existence has implications for the dynamical stability of solar sails both in parked and circular orbital configurations and for the accuracy of trajectory calculations, particularly for sails in the inner solar system.     

Acceleration of particles in the vicinity of a massive black hole

Recent results of the gamma-ray Cherenkov astronomy definitely prove the existence of fast variability in the very high energy (V.H.E.) gamma-ray flux of some active galactic nuclei. The BL Lac PKS 2155-304 for instance showed variations down to a few minutes time scale. From standard light travel time argument, these variations put extremely strong constraints on the size of the TeV emitting zone, which has to be of the order of a few Schwarzschild radius, even for high values of the relativistic Doppler factor of the emitting jets. Such discovery is a challenge for particle acceleration scenarios, which have to imagine efficient acceleration processes at work in a very compact zone. Eventually, the immediate vicinity of the central black hole appears as the most conservative choice for the location of the TeV emission region of active galactic nuclei. In this paper, we propose a two-step mechanism for charged particle acceleration in the magnetosphere of a massive black hole surrounded by an accretion disk. Particles first gain energy by a stochastic process during the accretion phase. It is shown that effective proton acceleration up to energies 10¹⁷–10¹⁹ eV is possible in a low-luminosity magnetized accretion disk with 2D turbulent motion. The distribution function of energetic protons over energies is a power law function with typical index ≃−1. Here electrons are not very efficiently accelerated because of their drastic losses by synchrotron radiation. In a second time, part of the fast particles escape from the disk and are then entrained by the magnetic structure above the disk, in the rotating black hole magnetosphere. They thus gain additional energy by direct centrifugal mechanism, up to about 10²⁰ eV for the protons and to 10–100 TeV for the electrons when they cross the light cylinder surface. Such energetic particles can further radiate in the TeV spectral range observed by Cherenkov experiments as HESS, MAGIC and VERITAS. Energetic protons can produce γ-radiation in the energy band 1 GeV–100 TeV and above mainly by nuclei collisions with the disk matter, clouds, or ambient low energy photons. Energetic electrons can also reach the required spectral range by inverse Compton emission. However their acceleration is less efficient due to heavy radiation losses, and only gained by centrifugal process during the second phase of the whole mechanism we describe. Our present analysis would therefore favor hadronic scenarios for TeV emission of active galactic nuclei. It is tempting to relate long term variability over years of TeV active galactic nuclei to the first stochastic acceleration phase, which also provides the needed power law particle distributions, while short term variability over minutes is more likely due to perturbations of the second fast direct acceleration phase.
