Theory of the Trojan asteroids,IV

In a previous publication (1977) the author has constructed a family () of long-periodic orbits in the Trojan case of the restricted problems of three bodies. Here he constructs the domain of the analytical solution of the problem of the motion, excluding the vicinity of thecritical divisor which vanishes at the exact commensurability of the natural frequencies ₁ and ₂. In terms of thecritical masses m_j(₂), or the associatedcritical energies _j ² (m), is the intersection of the intervals ofshallow resonance, of the form. Inasmuch as the intervals |₂– _j ² |<_j ofdeep resonance aredisjoint, it follows that (1) the disjointed family () embraces the tadpole branch, 0²1, lying in: and (2) despite the clustering of _j ² (m) atj=, the family () includes, for ²=1, an asymptoticseparatrix that terminates the branch in the vicinity of the Lagrangian pointL ₃.In a similar manner, the family () can be extended to the horseshoe branch 1<_{2 2} ² .     

On symmetrical planetary corotations

Exact corotations are equilibrium points in the phase space of the asteroidal elliptic restricted problem of three bodies averaged over the synodic period, at a mean-motions resonance. If the resonant critical angle is =(p+q) _jup –p–q, exact corotations are double resonant motions defined by the conditionsd/dt=0 andd(– _jup )/dt=0. The first condition is characteristic of the periods resonance(p + q) : p and the second one is a secular resonance equivalent to that usually known as thev ₅-resonance. This paper presents the symmetric solutions =0 (mod ), = _jup (mod ). Corotations have a coherence property which is unique in non-collisional Celestial Mechanics: An elementary calculation shows that, in the neighbourhood of these solutions, the motions cluster aroundp independent longitude values and are, in each cluster, as close together as and are close to the equilibrium values.     

Implications of CP violation in hyperon decays

It is generally believed that the only known reaction in whichC _p violation definitely occurs is in the decay of the long-lived neutralK-mesonK _L ^+–,K _L ⁰⁰, andK _L e ^±± v (Christensonet al., 1964: Sivaram, 1982). No attempt has been made to studyC _p violation outside theK-system for quite a long time. Recently,C _p violation effects have been reported in the hyperon decays through the reaction (Bassompierre, 1990) with asymmetry at the level of 10^–3 to 10^–4.In this paper we examine the possible implications of hyperon decays asymmetry in some cosmic-ray sources. We identify cosmic-ray sources where such decays can occur. The signatures for measuring these asymmetries in both the laboratory and cosmic-ray sources are examined.It is found that there is a correlation between these signatures. We conclude that hyperon decays contribute significantly toC _p violation observed in cosmic-ray sources.     

The asymptotic limit of the form-factors α and β product for celestial bodies

The applicability of the properties of central configurations proceeding from the many-body problem to study of gaseous sphere cloud evolution during its gravitational contraction is justified. It is shown that the product runs to a constant value in the asymptotic time limit of simultaneous collision of all the particles of the cloud where is a form-factor of the potential energy and is a form-factor of the moment of inertia.The spherical bodies as well as ellipsoids of rotation and general ellipsoids with a one-dimensional mass distribution (k),k[0, 1] are found to possess the property =const.

Free convection and mass transfer effects on the hydro-magnetic oscillatory flow past an infinite vertical porous plate

Two-dimensional unsteady free convection and mass transfer, flow of an incompressible viscous dissipative and electrically conducting fluid, past an infinite, vertical porous plate, is considered, when the flow, is subjected in the action of uniform transverse magnetic field. The magnetic Reynolds number is taken to be small enough so that the induced magnetic field is negligible. The solution of the problem is obtained in the form of power series of Eckert numberE, which is very small for incompressible fluids. Analytical expressions for the velocity field and temperature field are given, as well as for the skin friction and the rate of heat transfer for the case of the mean steady flow and for the unsteady one. The influence of the magnetic parameter,M, modified Grashof numberG _c , Schmidt numberS _c and frequency , on the flow field, is discussed with the help of graphs, when the plate is being cooled, by the free convection currents (G _r ,E>0), or heated (G _r ,E<0). A comparative study with hydrodynamic case (M=0) and the hydromagnetic one (M0) is also made whenever necessary.List of symbols B₀ applied magnetic field - |B| amplitude of the skin friction - C concentration inside the boundary layer - C concentration in the free stream - C _w concentration at the porous plate - C _p specific heat at constant pressure - D diffusion coefficient - E Eckert number - g _x acceleration due to gravity - G _c modified Grashof number - G _r Grashof number - M magnetic parameter - N _u Nusselt number - P Prandtl number - |Q| amplitude of the rate of heat transfer - S _c Schmidt number - T temperature of the fluid - T _w temperature of the plate - T temperature of the fluid in the free stream - T _r ,T _i fluctuating parts of the temperature profile - u, v velocity components in thex, y directions - u dimensionless velocity in thex direction - u ₀ mean steady velocity - u ₁ unsteady part of the velocity - u _r ,u _i fluctuating parts of the velocity profile - U dimensionless free stream volocity - U ₀ mean free stream velocity - v ₀ suction velocity - x, y co-rodinate system Greek Symbols phase angle of the skin-friction - coefficient of volume expansion - _* coefficient of expansion with concentration - phase angle of the rate of heat transfer - dimensionless co-ordinate normal to the plate - dimensionless temperature - ₀ mean steady temperature - ₁ unsteady part of temperature - k thermal conductivity - v kinematic viscocity - density of fluid in the boundary layer - density of fluid in the free stream - electrical conductivity of the fluid - skin friction - ₀ mean skin friction - frequency - dimensionless frequency     

Central holes in disks of spiral galaxies

On the basis of the solutions obtained in the previous paper, the changes in the scenario of the standard model of the Big Bang are found. The chaos degree (constrainst on fluctuation spectra) is obtained, which could be still preserved by the initially completely chaotic Universe at the time of light elements nucleosynthesist _es. The time boundaries of hadron and lepton eras and the time the electron neutrinos and neutrons become frozen in reactions of weak interaction may be shifted up to 1.4 times. The corresponding temperatures may shift off from the standard ones 0.88 times if the mean-square level of fluctuations is close to unity. If the density of the energy of fluctuations concentrated in the short-wave region of the spectrum is less than 1.5 ^– , the nucleosynthesis leads to a helium abundance coinciding with the observe one. If at the timet _es the maximum of the spectral density of the energy is in the long-wave region, that is _max ct _es the level of the chaos during the period of nucleosynthesis is restricted to 1.76 (where |C _K |² d³ K,C _K is Fourier component of the amplitude of metric fluctuations). In particular, the protogalactic vortical disturbances with a wide spectrum 4 × 10^{3 -1}( = K/K, = /_crit) are compatible with the observed helium abundance.     

Free-convection effects on MHD flow past a porous plate with step function change in suction velocity

Free convection effects on MHD flow past a semi infinite porous flat plate is studied when the time dependent suction velocity changes in step function form. The solution of the problem is obtained in closed form for the fluid with unit Prandtl number. It is observed that for both cooling and heating of the plate the suction velocity enhances the velocity field. The heat transfer is higher with increase in suction velocity.Notations B intensity of magnetic field - G Grashof number - H magnetic field parameter,H=(M+1/4) ^1/2–1/2 - M magnetic field parameter - N _u Nusselt number - P Prandtl number of the fluid - r suction parameter - T temperature of the fluid - T _w temperature of the plate - T temperature of the fluid at infinity - t time - t non-dimensional time - u velocity of the fluid parallel to the plate - u non-dimensional velocity - U velocity of the free stream - suction velocity - ₁ suction velocity att0 - ₂ suction velocity att>0 - x,y coordinate axes parallel and normal to the plate, respectively - y non-dimensional distance normal to the plate - coefficient of volume expansion - thermal diffusivity - kinematic viscosity - electric conductivity of the fluid - density of the fluid - non-dimensional temperature of the fluid - shear stress at the plate - non dimensional shear stress - erf error function - erfc complementary error function     

The behaviour of the infrared lines of neutral oxygen and the balmer lines of hydrogen in the spectra of early-type stars with emission lines

The equivalent widths of the oxygen lines at 7774 and 8446 and of H (and some H) have been measured for 22 early-type, emission-line stars. A strong correlation between H and 8446 intensities has been found, although there is no such correlation between H and 7774. This confirms the probability that Bowen's mechanism is operative (the neutral oxygen 3³ D state is overpopulated because the excitation energy of Ly- nearly coincides with that of theOi 1025 line). The possibility of using 8446 and H equivalent widths for a comparison of oxygen to hydrogen abundances in these stars is discussed.     

Effects of Hall current on hydromagnetic free-convective flow through a porous medium

An analysis of the effects of Hall current on hydromagnetic free-convective flow through a porous medium bounded by a vertical plate is theoretically investigated when a strong magnetic field is imposed in a direction which is perpendicular to the free stream and makes an angle to the vertical direction.

Multiple expansion of the tidal potential

The Earth tidal deformation causes an additional gravitational potential. Its effect on the Moon orbital motion has been studied by several authors.In this contribution, we develop this additional potential without specifying the inertial frame chosen.For this purpose, we use the properties of the representation of rotation groups in 3 dimensions space. We finally obtain the interaction potential between the distorted Earth and the Moon which is a necessary preliminary to the study of the evolution of the Earth-Moon system.Nomenclature T.R.O Tide raising object - (, , ) Spherical coordinates of the T.R.O. - (J, _E ) Earth spin axis orientation. _E is the longitude of the ascending node of Earth's equator on thexy-plane - (a ,I ,e , , ,M ) Elliptics elements of the T.R.O

On convergence of an asymmetrical body potential expansion in spherical harmonics

The gravity potential of an arbitrary bodyT is expanded in a series of spherical harmonics and rigorous evaluations of the general termV _n of the expansion are obtained. It is proved thatV _n decreases on the sphere envelopingT according to the power law if the body structure is smooth. For a body with analytic structure,V _n decreases in geometric progression. The exactness of these evaluations is proved for bodies having irregular and analytic structures. For the terrestrial planetsV _n =O (n ^–5/2).

Effect of perturbations in Coriolis and centrifugal forces on the stability of libration points in the restricted problem

The location and the stability of the libration points in the restricted problem have been studied when small perturbation and are given to the Coriolis and the centrifugal forces respectively. It is seen that the pointsL ₄ andL ₅ form nearly equilateral triangles with the primaries and the pointsL ₁,L ₂,L ₃ remain collinear. It is further observed that for the pointsL ₄ andL ₅, the range of stability increases or decreases depending upon whether the point (, ) lies in one or the other of the two parts in which the (, ) plane is divided by the line 36-19=0 and the stability of the collinear points is not influenced by the perturbations and they remain unstable.     

Approximate expressions for Gyrosynchrotron radiation in Transverse Propagation

Two sets of accurate approximate expressions for the gyrosynchrotron radiation in the transverse propagation case are presented for the first time. They contain emissivity _–/BNand absorptivity _– B/Nfor e-mode, effective temperature T _effand frequency of peak brightness _p. The expressions are designed for the range 2 to 7 of electron energy spectral index and for the ranges from 2 to 10 and 10 to 100 of harmonic numbers s(=/_B). Their statistical error is, respectively, ±18% and ±29% for _–/BNand _– B/Nfor 10/_B100, ±128% and and ±170% for 2/_B10.     

Models of clusters of point masses with large central redshifts

Conclusions In the Newtonian case we have obtained an isotropic self-consistent distribution of gravitationally interacting point masses which satisfies the transport equation without collisions, and the gravitational equation for an arbitrary powerfunction density distribution =r^–s, s<3.For =r^–2 the analogous self-consistent solution was obtained for the anisotropic distribution function both in Newtonian and GTR cases.The GTR solutions with =r^–2 have central redshifts which increase without limit in accordance with the law 1+zr^–1/ as we approach the center. In the isotropic case, they appear to be stable when the mean velocities are much less than the velocity of light u<0.2c, >21.The hydrodynamic GTR solution was found for a perfect gas at constant temperature (but variable T=T(g₀₀)^1/2) which also has z for r0.We should like to thank K. Thorne, L. Hazin, and M. Podurets for valuable discussions. K. Thorne was particularly helpful in supplying unpublished results on circular orbits obtained by American authors.Astrofizika, Vol. 5, No. 2, pp. 223–234, 1969     

Coherence analysis of granular intensity

A high resolution spectrogram of the Mg b₂ line from the quiet Sun disc centre is subjected to a coherence analysis. We find that the coherence between intensity fluctuations in the continuum and the wings of the line breaks down at a distance = 0.35 Å from line centre. From this and the r.m.s. intensity contrast as a function of we are led to the following simple model of temperature fluctuation T in the solar photosphere: A lower part (below 50 km, or ₅₀₀₀ > 0.25) with strongly inward increasing T and an upper part (above 50 km) with constant T = 75 K. The two parts are supposed to fluctuate incoherently.Mitteilungen aus dem Kiepenheuer Institut Nr. 166.     

Redshifts of the brightest X-ray QSO's

The plot of the X-ray luminosity (in 0.5–4.5 KeV band and for Friedmann universe withq ₀=+1) of the brightest X-ray QSO at each redshift against redshift shows that the X-ray luminosity increases more or less monotonically with redshift uptoz3. This result has been attributed to the selection effect known as the volume effect. When this selection effect is taken into account in the optical, radio and X-ray windows of the electromagnetic spectrum, a sample of the brightest X-ray QSO's is obtained which shows a small dispersion in X-ray luminosity: logL ₁=46.15±0.25. The redshift-X-ray flux density plot for this sample gives slopes of both regression lines which agree, at a confidence level of 95% or greater, with the slopes expected theoretically if the redshifts of the QSO's are cosmological in nature.     

The effect of chemical abundance oscillations on the pulsational properties of A 5M ⊙ hydrogen-helium star

A model of a first generation intermediate star of 5M , with Z=0 has been considered. The model is at an advanced stage of its evolution and has a double shell burning. It burns helium in the inner shell, and hydrogen, via CNO cycle, in the outer shell. =(log/log) _T and _T =(log/logT) were computed allowing for the oscillations of the relative mass abundance of the reagents in nuclear reactions. Including =(log/log) _T and =(log/logT) of mean molecular weight and the effect of the oscillations of abundances due to nuclear reactions, stability was studied. Contrary to the results of the static calculations, we found that instability due to the excitation mechanism provided by the high temperature sensitivity of energy generation rate propagates up to the surface. Thus the model in question was found to be unstable against radial adiabatic pulsations, in its fundamental mode.
