Exact Bianchi-type VIII and IX models in the presence of the self-creation theory of cosmology

Exact Bianchi-type VIII and IX models in the presence of Barber's second self-creation theory of cosmology are presented, when the source of the gravitational field is a perfect fluid withP=. Some physical and geometrical properties of the models are discussed.     

Linear and nonlinear gravidynamics: static field of a collapsar

In the bounds of the consistent dynamic interpretation of gravitation (gravidynamics) a gravitational field has been divided into two components: scalar and tensor, each one interacting with its source by the same coupling constant. Consequently, a spherically-symmetrical gravitational field in vacuum generated by a massive object influences test bodies as an algebraic sum of attraction and repulsion. Field energy in vacuum around the source is also a sum of energies of two components — purely tensor and scalar ones of gravitation. At distances from a gravitating object much greater than its gravitational radius, energies of each separate field component are equal to each other at the same point of space.In the bounds of gravidynamics based on the so-called Einstein's linearized equation and proceeding from general principles of theory of classical fields a statement (a theorem) has been formulated on the static gravitational field of a collapsar: a spherically-symmetric object generating a static field in vacuum may always only occupy a finite, nonzero volume.

One more explanation of superluminal motion

The occurrence of superluminal motion in extragalactic radio sources is believed to be quite common. Among others, the geometrical scattering of radio radiation can also cause superluminal expansion and or motion and halo formation, In this paper, the effectiveness of the stimulated Raman scattering in producing these features is investigated. The scattering medium is a plasma whose position, density and temperature decide the rate and angle of scattering. When the radiation from a stationary and constant source gets scattered from a stationary plasma, a halo is formed around the source. However, the scattering of a rotating radiation beam does produce superluminal motion of the virtual source. It is found that the plasma should have the characteristics of the emission-line regions and the intercloud medium in order to Raman scatter the radiation. Since the scattering is polarization dependent, it is possible to estimate the rotation of the electric vector along the direction of the apparent motion of a radio source.     

The stability parameters of three-dimensional periodic three-body orbits

Formulae containing the elements of the variational matrix are obtained which determine the linear isoenergetic stability parameters of three-dimensional periodic orbits of the general three-boy problem. This requires the numerical integration of the variational equations but produces the stability parameters with the effective accuracy of the numerical integration. The conditions for stability, criticality, and bifurcations are briefly examined and the stability determination procedure is tested in the determination of some three-dimensional periodic orbits of low inclination bifurcating from vertical-critical coplanar orbits.     

Periodicity search in sources with low count rate

The problem of discovery and estimation of the period, slowly changing in time is considered, when the pulses are rare. Several criteria are proposed on the base of which a multilevel algorithm of the period detection is constructed. The reliability and precision of the period determination are investigated with taking into account of the correlated errors of corresponding values of criteria.
