天门山震旦/寒武系界线上地外撞击事件痕迹

从湘西北天门山震旦—寒武系界线上发现的冲击砾裂、冲击角砾、冲击岩脉、微球粒撞击玻粒(microirghi-zites)、微球粒玻璃陨石(microtektites),特别是陨石碎屑残迹现象,可能表明:在震旦—寒武系界线上曾经发生过地外撞击的事件。     

Classification of 24 New Ordinary Chondrites from the Grove Mountains, Antarctica

Petrography and mineral chemistry of 24 ordinary chondrites from the Grove Mountains, Antarctica, have been studied in order to identify their chemical-petrographic types. These samples were selected from a total of 4448 Grove Mountains (GRV) meteorites collected during the 19th Chinese Antarctic Research Expedition so as to make an estimation of the large GRV meteorite collection. The chemical-petrographic types of these meteorites are presented below: 1 H3,2 H4, 4 H5, 2 H6, 1 L4, 7 L5, 5 L6, 1 LL4 and 1 LL6. The new data weaken the previous report that unequilibrated ordinary chondrites are unusually abundant in the Grove Mountains region. However, this work confirms significant differences in distribution patterns of chemical-petrographic types between the Grove Mountains and other     

中国近代北方极端干湿事件的演变规律

Using monthly precipitation and monthly mean temperature, a surface humid index was proposed. According to the index, the distributed characteristics of extreme dryness has been fully analyzed. The results indicated that there is an obvious increasing trend of extreme dryness in the central part of northern China and northeastern China in the last 10 years, which shows a high frequency period of extreme dryness; while a low frequency period in the regions during the last 100 years. Compared with variation trend of the temperature in these regions, the region of high frequent extreme dryness is consistent with the warming trend in the same region.     

质量最大的星系团

最近,一个国际天文研究组宣布发现了迄今位置质量最大的星系团,为暗能量的存在找到了一个新证据。这一新发现的星系团被命名为2XMM J083026＋524133,其质量相当于数千个大星系（例如银河系）之和。星系团中弥漫着温度高达1亿度的炽热气体。     

椭圆星系中的星系际尘埃

该文总结了近年来椭圆星系中尘埃起源研究中的一些关键问题,包括尘埃大小的分布及其组成、椭圆星系恒星质量损失速率、尘埃的两种加热机制(恒星辐射加热和电子-尘埃碰撞加热),以及由此导致的尘埃温度分布;尘埃的总质量估算;由热离子导致的尘埃破坏速率,以及与此相关联的椭圆星系热气体分布,等等.综合考虑这些因素,作者认为热气体分布对于椭圆星系中尘埃存在和破坏的影响不可忽视,椭圆星系中星系内部恒星质量损失产生尘埃的起源可能占据着非常重要的地位.     

云南天文台卫星激光测距中的测时仪器

详细论述了时间间隔计数器和事件计时器的工作原理,并阐述了云南天文台卫星激光测距系统中现有测时设备的性能,以及进行了信号周期测量实验.结果表明:测量信号边沿较好时,事件计时器OTL100P的标准偏差优于时间间隔计数器SR620.OTL100P具有直接测量事件发生时刻的特点和高测量精度的优势,能满足云南天文台将来多脉冲激光测卫、测月对测时系统的要求.
