Detection of optical circular polarization in the Herbig Ae star WW Vul

UBVRI observations of circular polarization in WW Vul are presented. A positive polarization of ～0.1% was detected with a signal-to-noise ratio from 3 to 5 in each of the bands and more than 5 when averaged over all five bands. This observed polarization roughly corresponds to a 1% circular polarization of the radiation scattered in a circumstellar disk, which is most likely attributable to the significant alignment of scattering nonspherical dust grains. Since grain alignment is possible only in a magnetic field, this result provides circumstantial evidence for the existence of a magnetic field in the circumstellar disk of WW Vul.     

近场源激电法在桂西北两个金矿床的初步试验

本文通过对桂西北地区金牙、高龙两个微细粒浸染型金矿床进行的近场源激电法试验,在已知矿体上均获得较明显的极化率异常,其辅助参数(Js、Gs、Ps)亦有显示,其异常形态大体与矿体或矿化体产状一致。该法对寻找和评价该类型金矿床有一定的实用价值。     

岩脉的大地电磁响应的研究

TM极化时,当测点越过界面时视电阻率均发生变化,基底较深时能放大界面附近的异常,当基底较深、频率较高时,高阻一侧相位低于45°,低阻一侧相位高于45°。TE极化时,只有基底为高阻时越过界面时视电阻率才发生变化,当基底为高阻且频率较高时,相位在界面两侧发生变化。通过岩脉时若相位无变化,岩脉是窄的。     

雾对光偏振态影响的实验研究

测量了不同人土雾浓度下垂直偏振入射光的透射光强。利用实验数据，分析了垂直、平行方向上透射光强的变化趋势。得出平行偏振分量透射光强大致呈指数下降的趋势，垂直偏振分量透射光强先略微上升而后下降。由退偏振度随雾浓度的变化讨论了退偏产生的原因，指出雾浓度较低时，雾滴可近似视为球形。基于光的偏振特性，从理论上分析并计算得到光在雾中传输时透射、散射光强。实验结果对研究光在雾中传输及分析大气中雾对透射光偏振态的影响有一定的参考价值。     

2003年云南大姚6.2级、6.1级地震序列S波分裂研究c

在利用双差定位法对2003年7月21日、 10月16日云南大姚先后发生的6.2级、6.1级地震序列进行精定位的基础上，采用互相关系数法测量了两个地震序列的快波偏振方向和快慢波的延迟时间. 结果表明:① 两个地震序列的S波分裂现象较明显，除三台乡台以外，大部分台站记录到的地震快波平均偏振方向与区域最大水平主压应力方向基本一致，三台乡台的偏振方向出现两个峰值，平均偏振方向是N80deg;E，表现出与区域最大水平主压应力方向不一致的现象；② 序列延迟时间与震源深度之间没有明显规律性关系，但不同延迟时间范围内偏振方向表现出不同的规律；③ 两次地震序列S波分裂结果对比发现，6.2级地震序列快波的偏振方向明显较分散，快波平均偏振方向比6.1级地震序列大20deg;，而延迟时间方面二者相差不大；④S波分裂快波偏振方向所表现出的空间差异性，可能是由于在区域背景应力场的基础上叠加了两次6级主震产生的应力扰动引起的.      

The polarimetric nature of HD 108

V -band polarimetric observations of HD 108 were obtained during 1994 August and September. This is the first time that the temporal polarimetric variability of this star has been investigated. Its percentage polarization and position angle vary randomly, and no evidence of its proposed binary nature is detected. The random variability is consistent with that seen for previously observed Wolf–Rayet stars and OB supergiants. Nightly variations do show some systematic behaviour consistent with the blob ejection model of Underhill & Fehey (1984). From the data it is estimated that the mass-loss rate resulting from blobs is ∼1-10⁻⁷ M⊙ yr⁻¹. The total mass-loss rate of the star is estimated to be ∼1-10⁻⁵ M⊙ yr⁻¹. The stellar rotation rate is estimated to be V _rot∼400 km s⁻¹ with an inclination of i <20c. The data are also interpreted in terms of perturbations occurring in an equatorial disc plus bipolar jets viewed equatorially (Underhill 1994). It is found that the perturbation mass-loss rate is about ∼3-10⁻⁷ M⊙ yr⁻¹, giving a total mass-loss rate for the star of 13-10⁻⁵ M⊙ yr⁻¹. Both models are consistent with HD 108 being an OB supergiant or of the class Ofpe/WR9.     

A search for optical polarization from the narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy RE J1034+396

We present spectropolarimetry data on RE J1034+396, an ultra-soft X-ray narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxy, and find an upper limit of ∼ 0.4 to the linear polarization in the optical band. This suggests that there is no synchrotron emission in this AGN, and thus it is unlikely that RE J1034+396 is related to BL Lac objects. Furthermore, any other polarization arising from transmission through dust, or reflection from dust and electrons, must be cancelled out by geometrical effects or diluted to a high degree by unpolarized radiation.
