The observational properties of globular cluster systems (GCSs) are vital tools to investigate the violent star formation
histories of their host galaxies. This violence is thought to have been triggered by galaxy interactions or mergers. The most
basic properties of a GCS are its luminosity function (number of clusters per luminosity bin) and color distributions. A large
number of observed GCS show bimodal color distributions, which can be translated into a bimodality in either metallicity and/or
age. An additional uncertainty comes into play when one considers extinction. These effects can be disentangled either by
obtaining spectroscopic data for the clusters or by imaging observations in at least four passbands. This allows us then to
discriminate between various formation scenarios of GCSs, e.g. the merger scenario by Ashman and Zepf, and the multi-phase
collapse model by Forbes et al. Young and metal-rich star cluster populations are seen to form in interacting and merging
galaxies. We analyse multiwavelength broad-band observations of these young cluster systems provided by the ASTROVIRTEL project.

In 1943, the British Ministry of Economic Warfare (MEW) issued the Bomber's Baedeker. A Guide to the Economic Importance of German Towns and Cities, followed by a second extended edition in 1944. Both editions have now been analysed completely for the first time. Based on information taken from the second edition, the analysis on the macro-level allows statements about the spatial distribution of the most important war-economic targets of the German Reich within the borders of 1937, as seen from the British point of view, just as about the distribution of target priorities within the town hierarchy, classified by population size, and on the micro-level about the information density provided for any single town. The final picture to emerge of the destruction of German towns at the end of the war reveals that quite a number were bombed which the MEW had not recommended for attack. This was due to the economically orientated target selection of the MEW being eclipsed and intermingled with the aims of those who promised to decide the war by demoralising the German population through general dehousing as well as by bombardments in support of ground forces advancing into the German hinterland at the end of the war. 相似文献

A new meteorite find, named Khatyrka, was recovered from eastern Siberia as a result of a search for naturally occurring quasicrystals. The meteorite occurs as clastic grains within postglacial clay‐rich layers along the banks of a small stream in the Koryak Mountains, Chukotka Autonomous Okrug of far eastern Russia. Some of the grains are clearly chondritic and contain Type IA porphyritic olivine chondrules enclosed in matrices that have the characteristic platy olivine texture, matrix olivine composition, and mineralogy (olivine, pentlandite, nickel‐rich iron‐nickel metal, nepheline, and calcic pyroxene [diopside‐hedenbergite solid solution]) of oxidized‐subgroup CV3 chondrites. A few grains are fine‐grained spinel‐rich calcium‐aluminum‐rich inclusions with mineral oxygen isotopic compositions again typical of such objects in CV3 chondrites. The chondritic and CAI grains contain small fragments of metallic copper‐aluminum‐iron alloys that include the quasicrystalline phase icosahedrite. One grain is an achondritic intergrowth of Cu‐Al metal alloys and forsteritic olivine ± diopsidic pyroxene, both of which have meteoritic (CV3‐like) oxygen isotopic compositions. Finally, some grains consist almost entirely of metallic alloys of aluminum + copper ± iron. The Cu‐Al‐Fe metal alloys and the alloy‐bearing achondrite clast are interpreted to be an accretionary component of what otherwise is a fairly normal CV3 (oxidized) chondrite. This association of CV3 chondritic grains with metallic copper‐aluminum alloys makes Khatyrka a unique meteorite, perhaps best described as a complex CV3 (ox) breccia. 相似文献

Globular cluster systems (GCSs) of most early-type galaxies feature two peaks in their optical colour distributions. Blue-peak globular clusters (GCs) are believed to be old and metal-poor, whereas the ages, metallicities, and the origin of the red-peak GCs are still being debated. We obtained deep K-band photometry and combined it with Hubble Space Telescope observations in g and z to yield a full spectral energy distribution from the optical to the near-infrared. This now allows us to break the age–metallicity degeneracy. We used our evolutionary synthesis models galev for star clusters to compute a large grid of models with different metallicities and a wide range of ages. Comparing these models to our observations revealed a large population of intermediate-age (1–3 Gyr) and metal-rich (≈solar-metallicity) GCs, that will give us further insights into the formation history of this galaxy. 相似文献

galev (GALaxy EVolution) evolutionary synthesis models describe the evolution of stellar populations in general, of star clusters as well as of galaxies, both in terms of resolved stellar populations and of integrated light properties over cosmological time-scales of ≥13 Gyr from the onset of star formation shortly after the big bang until today.
For galaxies, galev includes a simultaneous treatment of the chemical evolution of the gas and the spectral evolution of the stellar content, allowing for what we call a chemically consistent treatment: we use input physics (stellar evolutionary tracks, stellar yields and model atmospheres) for a large range of metallicities and consistently account for the increasing initial abundances of successive stellar generations.
Here we present the latest version of the galev evolutionary synthesis models that are now interactively available at http://www.galev.org . We review the currently used input physics, and also give details on how this physics is implemented in practice. We explain how to use the interactive web interface to generate models for user-defined parameters and also give a range of applications that can be studied using galev , ranging from star clusters, undisturbed galaxies of various types E–Sd to starburst and dwarf galaxies, both in the local and the high-redshift Universe. 相似文献

A review is given of the stratospheric budgets of odd oxygen, odd nitrogen, nitrous oxide, methane and carbonyl sulfide. The stratospheric column production rate of NO by the reaction N2O + O(1D) → 2 NO is 1.1–1.9 × 108 molecules cm?2 s?1. The stratospheric loss rates for N2O, CH4 and COS are equal to 0.9–1.4 × 109, 1 × 1010 and 0.5 × 107 molecules cm?2 s?1, respectively. From currently available information on the global distributions of N2O and CH4 there are some indications of about two times smaller OH concentrations below 35 km than those which are calculated based on the latest compilation of kinetic data.Most significantly, however, it is shown that photochemical models and available ozone observations cannot be reconciled and that there may be particularly severe problems in the 25–35 km region. This issue is thoroughly discussed.Volcanic emissions of SO2 to the stratosphere may locally lead to much enhanced ozone concentrations and heating rates. These may influence the dynamic behaviour of volcanic plumes before their dispersion over large volumes of the stratosphere. 相似文献

Projectile–target interactions as a result of a large bolide impact are important issues, as abundant extraterrestrial material has been delivered to the Earth throughout its history. Here, we report results of shock‐recovery experiments with a magnetite‐quartz target rock positioned in an ARMCO iron container. Petrography, synchrotron‐assisted X‐ray powder diffraction, and micro‐chemical analysis confirm the appearance of wüstite, fayalite, and iron in targets subjected to 30 GPa. The newly formed mineral phases occur along shock veins and melt pockets within the magnetite‐quartz aggregates, as well as along intergranular fractures. We suggest that iron melt formed locally at the contact between ARMCO container and target, and intruded the sample causing melt corrosion at the rims of intensely fractured magnetite and quartz. The strongly reducing iron melt, in the form of μm‐sized droplets, caused mainly a diffusion rim of wüstite with minor melt corrosion around magnetite. In contact with quartz, iron reacted to form an iron‐enriched silicate melt, from which fayalite crystallized rapidly as dendritic grains. The temperatures required for these transformations are estimated between 1200 and 1600 °C, indicating extreme local temperature spikes during the 30 GPa shock pressure experiments. 相似文献
