A Model of the Circumstellar Envelope of Luminous Blue Variables

The continuum energy distributions of the luminous blue variables R127 and R110 in the outburst phase are fitted with a circumstellar envelope model.Both stars show two peaks in their continuum, one near 1250A and the other in the optical band. We suggest that their UV and optical fluxes may have different origins: the UV flux comes from the central star while the optical flux comes from an expanding circumstellar envelope. We construct a model for LBVs consisting of two LTE atmosphere models with different temperatures, and find it to be in agreement with the observed spectral energy distributions of R127 and R110.According to our numerical experiments, R127‘s continuum is composed of fluxes from a circumstellar envelope of Teff = 8000K, R = 485R⊙, and log g = 1,and from a central star of Tef = 17000K, R = 135R⊙, and log g = 2.5 with a permeating factor f = 0.5; while R110‘s continuum can be fitted by a circumstellar envelope of Teff =7000K, R = 350R⊙, and logg = 0.5, and a central star of Teff =25 000 K, R = 27R⊙, and log g 3.0 with a permeating factor f = 0.65.Both models show that the non-spherically symmetric, optically thick regions are formed surrounding the central star in the outburst phase. The light of the central star is shielded by the circumstellar envelope so that the visual brightness increases with the decrease/increase of the temperature/radius of the optically thick regions.     

Derivation of the Spiral Motion of an Eruptive Prominence and Its Explanation

A 2D velocity field of the eruptive prominence (EP) of 1991 March 5 is obtained from its spectral data observed at the Yunnan Observatory and the velocity distributions along the entrance slit are derived for different observing frames. Under the assumption that matter in the EP undergoes axial, radial and possible rotational motions, we construct a theoretical velocity distribution of the EP along the entrance slit, to derive, by fitting, the angular velocity of rotation w and the other three parameters (axial velocityυ0, radial velocityυr and the angle between the EP plane and the line of sightφ). We found: an averaged angular velocityωof 3.0 f6 10-3 arc s-1 and the variation ofωwith the height above the solar limb. As the EP rises, the matter within it in fact moves along a spiral path around its axis. The spiral motion may be explained by the theory of plasma 'double pole diffusion' (DPD) caused by a sharp density gradient between the eruptive prominence and the surrounding corona. A theoretical angular velocityω' is estimated based on the DPD and basically coincides withωobtained from the optimal velocity fitting.     

Newly Identified Silicate Carbon Stars from IRAS Low-Resolution Spectra

The discovery of silicate carbon star poses a challenge to the theory of stellar evolution in the late stage, hence it is important to look for more silicate carbon stars. To this end we have carried out cross-identifications between the new IRAS Low-Resolution Spectrum (LRS) database and the new carbon star catalog, CGCS3. We have found nine new silicate carbon stars with silicate features around 10μm and/or 18μm. These newly identified stars are located in the Regions IIIa and VII in the IRAS two-color diagram, which means they indeed have typical far infrared colors of silicate carbon stars. The infrared properties of each of these sources are discussed.

取土有“道”

3月6日,扶沟县练寺国土资源所接到举办电话称,有人在刘村村东非法取土,副所长桑春林立即带领执法人员赶到事发地。“停下,停下。我们是国土所的执法人员,你未经批准私自取土的行为是违法的。”桑春林一个箭步冲上前,大声呵斥道。一听是国土所的执法人员,大伙儿连忙停了下来。

1725年以来北京年降水量年代际变化分析及其与太平洋海表温关系研究

为了探寻北京降水量序列的年代际变化规律,采用张德二恢复的北京1725~1904年逐年降水量序列研究成果,并将该序列延长至2012年。对北京1725~2012年逐年降水量序列进行突变检验和小波分析,发现其具有多个跃变点,且表现为20～22a,32～36a,80～90a时间尺度上的周期性。太平洋SST和PDO对北半球的大气环流有着重要影响,对华北地区的降雨也有重要作用,本文采用互补集合经验模态函数（CEEMD）的方法来对1870~2012年的Nin ?o3区SST指数进行逐步分解,发现Nin ?o3指数表现为不同时间尺度上的周期性。为了研究太平洋SST和PDO对北京降雨量的年代际作用,使用交叉小波变换的方法从多时间尺度来对两者进行交叉分析,发现北京降雨量与Nin ?o3区SST在16～24a的时间尺度上有着强凝聚性共振周期,与PDO在16~24a及30~40a时间尺度上有着强凝聚性共振周期。
