Feedback of Active Galactic Nuclei in Seyfert 2 Galaxies

It is well accepted that feedback from active galactic nuclei (AGNs) plays an important role in the coevolution of the supermassive black hole (SMBH) and its host galaxy,but the concrete mechanism of feedback remains unclear.A considerable body of evidence suggests that AGN feedback suppresses star formation in the host galaxy.We assemble a sample of Seyfert 2 galaxies with recent observational data of compact nuclear starbursts and estimate the gas surface density as a function of column density to illuminate the relation between feedback and AGN properties.Although there are some uncertainties,our data still imply the deviation from the star formation law (Kennicutt-Schmidt law).Further,they indicate that:(1) Feedback correlates with the Eddington ratio,rather than with the mass of SMBH,as a result of decreasing star formation efficiency.(2) The SMBH and the torus are probably undergoing coevolution.Conclusions presented here can be refined through future high resolution CO or HCN observations.     

The Effect of AGN and SNe Feedback on Star Formation, Reionization and the Near Infrared Background

Feedback from supernovae (SNe) and from active galactic nuclei (AGN) accom-panies the history of star formation and galaxy evolution. We present an analytic model to explain how and when the SNe and AGN exert their feedback effects on the star formation and galaxy evolution processes. By using SNe and AGN kinetic feedback mechanisms based on the Lambda Cold Dark Matter (LCDM) model, we explore how these feedback mecha-nisms affect the star formation history (SFH), the Near-Infrared Background (NIRB) flux and the cosmological reionization. We find the values of the feedback strengths, ∈AGN =1.0+0.50.3and ∈SN=0.04+0.02-0.02, can provide a reasonable explanation of most of the observational re-suits, and that the AGN feedback effect on star formation history is quite different from the SNe feedback at high redshifts. Our conclusions manifest quantitatively that these feedback effects decrease star formation rate density (SFRD) and the NIRB flux (in 1.4 - 4.0μm), and postpone the time of completion of the cosmological reionization.     

桂中坳陷环江凹陷上古生界海相页岩储层孔隙结构和分形特征研究

通过有机地化分析、全岩X衍射矿物分析、甲烷等温吸附及低压氮气吸附实验,本文对桂中坳陷环江凹陷上古生界页岩样品的孔隙结构及分形特征进行了研究.结果表明:研究区页岩总有机碳含量(TOC)平均为2.40%,热成熟度(Ro)平均为2.65%,处于过成熟演化阶段.页岩主要的矿物组成为石英和黏土.页岩的比表面积平均为5.86 m2/g,孔容平均为0.014 9 mL/g,平均孔径为11.2 nm.页岩中发育大量的中孔,主要呈两端开口的圆筒形孔或四边开放的平行板状孔.页岩中TOC含量和石英含量越多,微-中孔越发育、比表面积和孔容越大,而平均孔径则变小.通过Frenkel-Halsey-Hill (FHH)模型和氮气吸附实验数据计算得到孔隙表面分形维数D1(平均为2.428 4)和孔隙结构分形维数D2(平均为2.622 2),对应的相对压力(P/P0)分别是0~ 0.45和0.45 ~ 0.99.分形维数D1、D2随着比表面积、孔容的增加而增加,而平均孔径随着前者的增加而减小.分形维数D1、D2、TOC含量、石英含量和甲烷吸附量之间呈现较好的正相关性,但随着黏土矿物含量的增多而减小.分形维数D1与Langmuir压力存在弱负相关性,分形维数D2随Langmuir压力增大有变大的趋势.桂中坳陷西北部页岩分形维数越大,孔隙结构越复杂,其对天然气的吸附和存储能力越强.

江苏丹阳千年“沸井”的地质成因与形成机理

通过采用无机和有机化学分析、可控源音频大地电磁测深、高密度电阻率和氡气测量等地质地球化学和地球物理方法,对江苏丹阳九里村六口相距30～200 cm不等的"沸腾"了2000多年的古井及其周围地质环境进行了详细勘查,研究发现:①"沸井"沸腾的气体主要为CO_2,此外,还有微量氡气和总挥发性有机物(TVOC),这些气体组分在临近的非"沸井"的民用水井中均未检出。②"沸井"水样中游离二氧化碳、钙、铁、锰、总溶解固体、总硬度、重碳酸根、稀土元素等含量均明显高于"沸井"周围其他民用水井和湖水。③"沸井"井水温度(夏天约19℃)与周围其他民用水井基本一致,未见异常情况。④"沸井"地下深部存在玄武岩岩体和茅东断裂的次级断裂,在这些断裂地表出露处氡气含量明显高于其他地方。⑤"沸井"的存在与茅东活动断裂有着密切的联系,"沸井"中沸腾的气体主要来源于地壳深部或上地幔,气体沿断裂带上升而逸出地表。⑥六口"沸井"井水味道各不相同,系因各"沸井"井水中游离二氧化碳、钙、铁、锰等含量及pH值不一所致。"沸井"井水"三清三浊",主要与井水中铁含量高低有关,三口铁含量高的井水因暴露于空气中氧化为三价铁沉淀,是井水浑浊的主要原因。     

成矿作用的空间分布不均匀性及其控制因素探讨

全球矿产资源时空分布的不均匀性及其形成机制,已成为地球科学关注的热点和前沿领域。本文在对全球矿产资源的空间分布规律及其不均匀性分布特点的研究进展进行全面阐述的基础上,重点分析了控制成矿作用空间分布不均匀性的主要因素,如地壳组成与演化的差异、地壳/地幔化学组成的不均一性、成矿构造环境的差异、重大地质构造事件的影响、构造转换或转折和叠加、矿床形成与保存能力等。研究认为,深刻理解全球矿产资源空间分布的不均匀性特征及其形成的根本原因,应加强以下五个方面的研究:①大陆成矿作用的空间分布不均匀性的机制;②从全球构造角度,揭示成矿作用的时空分布规律;③强调深部成矿过程,以阐明成矿作用不均匀性原因;④加强成矿系统、成矿系列研究;⑤加强矿产资源时空分布不均匀性的形成机制研究。     

The radular morphology of Nassariidae (Gastropoda: Caenogastropoda) from China

The family Nassariidae includes a number of species that are distributed throughout the world. Each species has a characteristic shell shape, tooth shape, and behavior. However, the classification of species in this family of the Rhachiglossa is controversial. We describe the radulae of 22 species from China in detail using optical and scanning electron microscopy. These species are considered to be representatives of two subfamilies, two genera, and 10 subgenera. Our results suggest that the morphology of the central tooth and the pair of lateral teeth and the presence or absence of a pair of intermediate accessory lateral teeth could be used to distinguish among species. We found no support for the subgeneric differentiation of the species. However, the presence or absence of the intermediate lateral accessory plate was characteristic of species divisions. We noted sexual dimorphism in the shape of the teeth in some species, and considerable variability of the shape of teeth within a single species. Based on our results, the genus Nassarius cannot be split into subgenera using radula morphology.     

倒立水母Cassiopea andromeda 的POU、Hox基因家族的多样性及系统发育分析

与其他钵水母相比,倒立水母具有独特行为：在生命周期的大部分时间里,它都在海底呈倒立附着、“睡眠”的状态。为探索与这一独特行为相关的遗传信息,本研究对安朵仙水母(Cassiopea andromeda)和同属于钵水母纲的海蜇(Rhopilema esculentum)、巴布亚硝水母(Mastigias papua)进行首次全基因组测序、拼接和注释,并重点分析了这3种钵水母与感觉功能、神经系统发育相关的重要转录调节因子Hox和POU基因家族的多样性与系统发育关系。遗传分析显示,刺胞动物门中Hox和POU基因家族具有明显的物种间差异性。对Hox基因的分析首次发现钵水母及水螅(Hydra vulgaris)的“前段Hox基因”产生了部分缺失,并进一步印证了刺胞动物不存在“中段Hox基因”的假说。安朵仙水母和海蜇具有相对全面的ParaHox基因种类,即GSX和XLOX/CDX基因,而巴布亚硝水母只有GSX基因。在POU基因多样性方面,安朵仙水母、海蜇、星状海葵(Nematostella vectensis)的基因组具有全部4类POU,而巴布亚硝水母、海月水母(Aurelia aurita)、水螅只有2类POU。在本研究分析的刺胞动物中,安朵仙水母的POU-1,-6亚型的核苷酸多态性最高;安朵仙水母与指形鹿角珊瑚(Acropora digitifera)、星状海葵的POU-2/3/5亚型的序列多样性较其他钵水母更高。另外,3种钵水母与水螅粘附蛋白的比较结果表明,安朵仙水母具有巴布亚硝水母和海蜇所不具有的粘附相关鼠李糖结合凝集素和一类抗氧化活性物质铁螯合物还原酶。综上所述,安朵仙水母具有更多POU编码基因和复杂POU亚型,以及具有粘附相关凝集素和还原酶的编码基因,可能是与安朵仙水母倒立附着生活方式相关的关键遗传信息。
