A focal plane detector design for a wide-band Laue-lens telescope

The energy range above 60 keV is important for the study of many open problems in high energy astrophysics such as the role of Inverse Compton with respect to synchrotron or thermal processes in GRBs, non thermal mechanisms in SNR, the study of the high energy cut-offs in AGN spectra, and the detection of nuclear and annihilation lines. Recently the development of high energy Laue lenses with broad energy bandpasses from 60 to 600keV have been proposed for a Hard X ray focusing Telescope (HAXTEL) in order to study the X-ray continuum of celestial sources. The required focal plane detector should have high detection efficiency over the entire operative range, a spatial resolution of about 1mm, an energy resolution of a few keV at 500keV and a sensitivity to linear polarization. We describe a possible configuration of the focal plane detector based on several CdTe/CZT pixelated layers stacked together to achieve the required detection efficiency at high energy. Each layer can operate both as a separate position sensitive detector and polarimeter or work with other layers to increase the overall photopeak efficiency. Each layer has a hexagonal shape in order to minimize the detector surface required to cover the lens field of view. The pixels would have the same geometry so as to provide the best coupling with the lens point spread function and to increase the symmetry for polarimetric studies.     

会理天宝山铅锌矿矿床地质特征及控矿条件浅析

通过阐明会理天宝山铅锌矿矿床地质特征分析,指出地层、岩相组合型式、构造组合是铅锌成矿最主要控矿条件。矿体定位于灯影组中上部的不纯富镁碳酸盐岩与较纯富镁碳酸盐岩过渡部位有利岩性中,而南北向主干深大断裂及其派生的旁侧东西向断裂与盖层的次一级断层、褶皱构造复合是成矿最有利的构造组合型式,多组构造交汇处的破碎带为成矿流体就位,聚集提供空间。认为矿区及外围的新山、何家屋基、马脖子梁地区找矿前景较好。     

南海西缘断裂带右行走滑的地球动力学机制

南海西缘断裂带,北端始于17°30'N附近的海南岛南部,往南延伸止于北西走向的卢帕尔断裂,南北延伸长度约达1 600 km,十分壮观(见图1)。该断裂带除了其名称和延伸长度在不同研究者的文章中各有所不同[1—4]之外,其名称和作用至少在20世纪80年代初已得到广泛的应用,早已成习惯,如在《亚洲地质》[5]一书和杨树康等[1]、陈国达[4]等许多著名科学家的论著中不断地得到了应用。该断裂带的构造地位和作用得到地学界的普遍重视,到目前为止地学界基本上认为它就是印支亚板块与南海亚板块之间的区域性边界断裂。     

BTEX anomalies used as indicators of submarine oil and gas reservoirs

It is a conventional method for petroleum prospecting to generally use paraffin hydrocarbon as basic indexes of oil and gas. This conventional geochemical technology, however, shows some limits in the prospecting as paraffin is vulnerable to influences from human and biologic activities. Consequently, BTEX (short for benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene and xylem, which are direct biomarkers) among aromatic hydrocarbon series has been taken into account for the oil and gas prediction. Domestic and foreign study results demonstrate that BTEX is hardly disturbed and can well indicate oil and gas reservoirs. Based on measured data from a South China Sea area, the present authors have used self-developed visual assessment software for petroleum prospecting has been used to process data, strip background anomalies, and outline significant BTEX anomalies. By comparison with stratigraphic profiles of the target area, it is confirmed that BTEX is a good indication of marine oil and gas during the petroleum prospecting.     

青龙寺井田水文地质特征分析

青龙寺井田位于陕北侏罗纪煤田神府矿区新民开采区中部,地质构造简单,主要可采煤层为延安组3^-1和5^-2煤层。井田主要含水层为第四系冲积层孔隙潜水、侏罗系延安组裂隙承压水和烧变岩空洞裂隙潜水。含水层主要接受大气降雨的入渗补给,补给量较小,因而富水性较弱。分析认为：未来矿井开采时的主要充水通道为煤层采空区顶板冒落形成的导水裂隙带,充水强度与大气降雨关系密切,在暴雨或持续降雨、渗透条件较好时,充水量大,其余时段和层段的充水量较小;开采5^-2煤层时对顶板砂岩水应以疏放为主。     

华北克拉通~2.5Ga地壳再造事件：来自中条山TTG质片麻岩的证据

华北克拉通中部中条山区涑水杂岩是华北克拉通新太古代TTG质片麻岩地体之一。为了探讨华北克拉通新太古代构造-岩浆事件的性质及早前寒武纪地壳的形成和演化,选择涑水杂岩中TTG质岩石进行研究。研究表明这套TTG质岩石富Na、高Al、Sr,低Y、Cr、Ni含量。稀土元素配分曲线右倾,富Rb、Ba等大离子亲石元素,强烈亏损Nb、Ta等高场强元素。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果表明,这套TTG质片麻岩形成于2553～2561Ma,属新太古代晚期产物。锆石Lu-Hf同位素分析结果显示εHf(t)为正值,两阶段模式年龄集中在2.7～2.8Ga。结合涑水杂岩中TTG质片麻岩的岩石地球化学特征,认为这套TTG片麻岩可能主要来自2.7～2.8Ga的下地壳镁铁质岩石在新太古代晚期的部分熔融,可能有少量的地幔物质加入。考虑同期发育大量花岗质岩石的事实,说明新太古代晚期在华北克拉通中部并不存在大规模的俯冲作用,华北克拉通在新太古代晚期已经基本成型。结合前人研究成果和本文锆石Lu-Hf同位素分析结果,提出中条山区～2.5Ga岩浆事件代表一期重要的陆壳再造事件。     

地震相和测井相联合预测火山岩相分布特征研究

以火山岩的基本地质特征、测井特征与测井相及其地震相特征与地震相分类为基础,依据测井相所建立的火山岩相模式,时地震相进行标定,形成由火山岩相、测井相和地震相组成的三相技术.该技术建立起三相之间的对应关系,以揭示火山岩相空间展布规律及变化特征.将三相技术应用于某盆地北部地区的营城组火山岩相研究.把营城组一段的地震相转换成火山岩相,得到火山岩相的平面分布,有效地预测出某盆地北部地区营城组一段火山岩的空间展布规律和火山岩储层有利相带.钻井证实:火山岩相之通道相岩石的物性最好,侵出相和爆发相次之,火山沉积相最差;火山岩相以火山颈岩物性最好,溢流相顶部次之.     

利用双视角消除太阳矢量磁场观测中的180◦不确定性

随着"环日轨道器"(Solar Orbiter, SO)的在轨运行,太阳磁场观测进入了双视角遥测的时代.对利用太阳磁场的双视角观测改正矢量磁图中存在的横场(垂直于视线方向的磁场分量) 180°不确定性进行了模拟,首先模拟了对解析解得到磁图的双视角观测,然后利用"日震学和磁学成像仪"(Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager, HMI)在不同时间观测到的一个老化黑子的磁图模拟了双视角观测.发现要改正一个磁图中横场方向的180°不确定性,在观测上只需要另外一个平行于视线方向的磁场即纵向磁场观测的协助.利用HMI的磁场观测模拟,估算显示30°的张角能够改正50 Gs磁场中的180°不确定性.更大的张角虽然更有利于更弱磁场的改正,但是考虑到投影效应的不利影响, 30°左右的张角应该是未来空间设备进行多视角观测太阳磁场的最佳张角.

An approximately analytical solution method for the cable-driven parallel robot in FAST

The Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope(FAST)is the largest single-dish aperture telescope with a cable-driven parallel robot introduced to achieve the highest sensitivity in the world.However,to realize the high-precision,mechanical equations of such a robot are always complicated,so that it is difficult to achieve real-time control by the traditional iterative method.In this regard,this paper proposes an approximately analytical solution method,which uses the approximately linear relationship between the main parameters of FAST to bypass some iterations.With the coefficients of the relationship extracted,static or quasi-static mechanical equations can be analytically solved.In this paper’s example,this method saves at least 90%of the calculating time and the calculated values are consistent with the experimental data.With such huge efficiency improvements,real-time and high-precision control of the FAST will no longer be difficult work.Besides,all the work in this paper is expected to be used in the FAST.
