Characteristics of inorganic ions in precipitation at different altitudes in the Yulong Snow Mountain, China

The present study investigated the chemical composition of summer precipitation at different altitudes in Yulong Snow Mountain, hoping to obtain some basic information about the chemical characteristics of precipitation. A couple of precipitation samples at different altitudes in the Yulong Snow Mountain area in southeastern China were collected from July 26 to July 31, 2005 for chemical analyses. Sea-salt tracer analysis showed that Cl^? and Na⁺ had high proportion from marine sources, while the other ions mainly were from non-marine sources. Statistics showed that the cation concentrations ranged from 0.51 to 5.26 mg L^?1 and anion concentrations ranged from 0.99 to 4.90 mg L^?1. Further analysis showed that terrestrial ions, especially from the proximal terrestrial sources, largely affected the ion concentrations in precipitation. Ion concentrations of precipitation were correlated significantly with local atmospheric circulation at altitude 2,950–4,800 m, and also correlated closely with human activities at altitude 2,400–2,950 m. Limestone, the majority of local rocks, caused high cation concentrations in precipitation, such as Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺. The majority of vapors in the region came from the Indian Ocean whereas parts came from the eastern Pacific. The inorganic ions in precipitation increased significantly in the Yulong Snow Mountain area during this century. Compared with most of the high altitude Mountains in China, the precipitations in the Yulong Snow Mountain area had higher concentrations of inorganic ions and low acidic ion concentrations. The conclusions can provide a basis for study of regional climate characteristics, environment and ecological characteristics of Yulong Snow Mountain area.     

Multivariate analysis of heavy metal pollution in street dusts of Xianyang city, NW China

Urban street dust is one of important indicators of the status of urban environmental pollution. There are many studies in capital cities, but little attention has been paid to this kind of study in medium cities, especially in China. The dust samples were collected in the district of traffic crossroads in Xianyang city, Shaanxi Province. Pb, Cd, Cu, Ni, Zn, Cr and Mn concentrations were determined by using atomic absorption spectrometry. The results indicate that street dusts in Xianyang city have elevated metal concentrations as a whole in comparison with Shaanxi Province soil, except for Mn. The content of heavy metals was comparable to those in capital cities. Correlation coefficient analysis, principal component analysis and cluster analysis were used and three main sources were identified; Mn comes mainly from soil sources; Cu, Zn and Ni are mainly derived from industrial sources combined with traffic sources; Pb, Cr and Cd have traffic sources. Heavy metal enrichment factors were calculated, which can reflect human influence degree of street dusts.

The study of s-process nucleosynthesis based on barium stars, CEMP-s and CEMP-r/s stars

In order to get a broader view of the s-process nucleosynthesis we study the abundance distribution of heavy elements of 35 barium stars and 24 CEMP-stars, including nine CEMP-s stars and 15 CEMP-r/s stars. The similar distribution of [Pb/hs] between CEMP-s and CEMP-r/s stars indicate that the s-process material of both CEMP-s and CEMP-r/s stars should have a uniform origin, i.e. mass transfer from their predominant AGB companions. For the CEMP-r/s stars, we found that the r-process should provide similar proportional contributes to the second s-peak and the third s-peak elements, and also be responsible for the higher overabundance of heavy elements than those in CEMP-s stars. Which hints that the r-process origin of CEMP-r/s stars should be closely linked to the main r-process. The fact that some small r values exist for both barium and CEMP-s stars, implies that the single exposure event of the s-process nucleosynthesis should be general in a wide metallicity range of our Galaxy. Based on the relation between C _r and C _s, we suggest that the origin of r-elements for CEMP-r/s stars have more sources. A common scenario is that the formation of the binary system was triggered by only one or a few supernova. In addition, accretion-induced collapse(AIC) or SN 1.5 should be the supplementary scenario, especially for these whose pre-AGB companion with higher mass and smaller orbit radius, which support the higher values of both C _r and C _s.     

Conceptual design studies of the 5 m terahertz antenna for Dome A,Antarctica

As the highest, coldest and driest place in Antarctica, Dome A provides exceptionally good observing conditions for ground-based observations over terahertz wavebands. The 5 m Dome A Terahertz Explorer （DATES） has been proposed to explore new terahertz windows, primarily over wavelengths between 350 and 200 pm. DATE5 will be an open-air, fully-steerable telescope that can function by unmanned operation with remote control. The telescope will be able to endure the harsh polar environment, including high altitude, very low temperature and very low air pressure. The unique specifications, including high accuracies for surface shape and pointing and fully automatic year-around remote operation, along with a stringent limit on the periods of on-site assembly, testing and maintenance, bring a number of challenges to the design, construction, assembly and operation of this telescope. This paper intro- duces general concepts related to the design of the DATE5 antenna. Beginning from an overview of the environmental and operational limitations, the design specifications and requirements of the DATE5 antenna are listed. From these, major aspects on the conceptual design studies, including the antenna optics, the backup structure, the pan- els, the subreflector, the mounting and the antenna base structure, are explained. Some critical issues of performance are justified through analyses that use computational fluid dynamics, thermal analysis and de-icing studies, and the proposed approaches for test operation and on-site assembly. Based on these studies, we conclude that the specifications of the DATE5 antenna can generally be met by using enhanced technological approaches.     

一种仿海蓝宝石（染色石英岩）的特征分析

近期,北京北大宝石鉴定中心在日常检验中陆续收到了一些自称是“海蓝宝石”的样品,尤以素面,刻面手串常见.采用常规仪器对该样品的折射率,密度,硬度等参数进行检测.结果表明,该送检样品的折射率约为1.54,相对密度为2.66,摩氏硬度为7.虽然样品的颜色,外观,密度,硬度都与海蓝宝石的接近,但其放大观察特征与海蓝宝石的略有不同.为了确定其真伪,采用傅里叶变换红外光谱仪对样品进行了测试分析.结果表明,该样品是由石英组成,为染色石英岩.该仿制品虽然在外观上与海蓝宝石很相似,常规宝石学参数也相似,但是其放大观察特征与海蓝宝石有所区别.建议检验机构在对海蓝宝石的鉴定中应重点观察其放大特征及偏光镜下特征,如果发现疑点,应引起警惕,采取其它手段进一步测试.

根据青海省南部玉树藏族自治州治多县629a树木年轮年表序列,依据相关等方法,分析了该年表与树木生长时气温、降水、地面加热场强度的关系.结果表明:该年表对高原年地面加热场强度反映敏感,由其重建了该区域地面加热场强度的历史序列,并应用交叉检验方法对校准方程进行了检验,证明重建方程稳定,所重建的年地面加热场强度变化比较可靠,具有一定的区域代表性.通过对重建序列的进一步分析得出,重建序列在一定程度上反映了青藏高原年地面加热场强度年际的历史变化.1374年以来在年代际尺度上,持续时间较长的年地面加热场强度特强时段有4个,即1396～1416年、1684 ～1699年、1816 ～1826年和1875 ～1889年;持续时间较长的年地面加热场强度特弱时段有4个,即1374～1384年、1417～1436年、1802～1812年和1897 ～1909年.在629a中共出现22个极端强年和8个极端弱年,15世纪出现7个极端强年和5个极端弱年.15 ～ 17世纪是年地面加热场强度的多变时期,18～20世纪是年地面加热场强度的相对稳定时段.     

由能量分配原理探讨滑移弱化与视应力的关系

按照震源地震波能量辐射原理,在断层面上任意一点由破裂或滑动而产生的地震波能量ES、地震矩M0及相应的视应力sigma;a都应大于零．在近期研究中发现Poldo等在震源参数反演求取断层面上临界滑动弱化距离Dc所采用的视应力约束方程出现了ldquo;视应力取值小于零rdquo;的情形,其负值被解释为对地震波辐射能无贡献的耗散能,可合并至破裂能部分。数学上的表述并未影响到反演结果,但从能量守恒观点上讲,这样的表述是不准确的．进一步讲,由此表述所求得的辐射能量ES大于由能量分配原理所得结果. 根据能量分配准则,指出出现负值视应力是不合适的,并给出了表述视应力随断层滑移过程变化的替代方法,同时提供了求解临界滑动弱化距离Dc的正确途径．
