Vertical Scale Parameter Estimates for 48 Non-edge-on Spiral Galaxies

In the first paper of this series, we directly studied the mathematical forms, symmetry of spiral structure, and the projection of galactic discs on the images, and measured the pitch angles of the spiral arms and inclination angles of the galactic discs for 60 spiral galaxies. In this second paper, we estimate the vertical scale parameters of 48 non-edge-on spiral galaxies based on the method proposed by Peng et al. and on the results given in Paper Ⅰ. As we know, for edge-on disc galaxies we can obtain the vertical scale parameter from the photometry, once a mathematical form is specified for the vertical light distribution. For non-edgeon galaxies, some other methods have to be used. The statistical result was that the vertical scale parameter is comparable for edge-on and non-edge-on galaxies, although it is obtained from two very different methods.     

危险的“搁浅捕食”

这是动物王国中令人大为惊叹的一幕:一群宽吻海豚正在进行着一场危险的“搁浅捕食”行动,之所以这样说是因为在这一捕猎过程中,海豚也将自己暂时处于一种危险的“搁浅岸上”的处境中。     

大气能量学揭示的高原低涡个例结构及降水特征

从能量角度分析了发生于2010年7月21~25日的一次高原低涡天气过程及降水特征。定量讨论了高原低涡发展不同阶段显热能、潜热能和对流有效位能(CAPE)的时空分布特征以及各能量分量变化的原因。发现:(1)显热能在高原低涡生成初期是总能量变化的主导因素,潜热能则在高原低涡东移下坡之后对总能量的变化起主要作用;(2)潜热能的空间分布证实高原低涡在成熟阶段出现与台风类似的螺旋结构;(3)标准化对流有效位能(NCAPE)在高原低涡发展最强盛时呈现明显的空心结构;(4)高原低涡的降水主要分布在低涡中心的东南侧或南侧,这与高原低涡的环流以及能量分布特征有密切关系。     

The Inclination, Pitch Angle and Forbidden Radius of Spiral Arms of PGC 35105

We have studied some properties including surface brightness in the u, g, r, i, and z bands of the nearly face-on galaxy PGC 35105. By subtracting a model surface brightness distribution from the observed image we obtain the residual image that shows only the spiral arms freed from the contamination by the bulge. From this we measured the the inclination, pitch angle, and forbidden radius (identified with the innermost point of the arm) for each of the two arms; and that for each of the five observing bands. We found these three parameters are largely independent of the observing band.     

宽坪群的层序划分及时代归属

宽坪群被划分为三个部分,下部以基性火山岩为主,中部以碎屑岩为主,上部以碳酸盐岩为主。以蟒岭地区的层序,由下而上分为广东坪组、四岔口组和谢湾组,其它各地均可对比。根据同位素年龄及其它证据,宽坪群应属于早—中元古代,具体时限应老于17亿年。     

骆驼刺叶片再生体系的建立

以骆驼刺(Alhagi pseudalhagi Desv.)叶片为试验材料,研究了基本培养基、不同叶位、放置方式及植物生长调节剂配比等对不定芽再生的影响。结果表明:骆驼刺叶片再生的最佳取材位置是试管苗中部;不同放置方式对不定芽的再生无明显影响;叶片不定芽再生的最佳培养基为:MS+6-BA 0.5 mg\5L-1+IBA 0.1 mg\5L-1,其不定芽分化率为100%,分化系数达11.28。低浓度IAA有利于叶片再生茎段的生根,在1/2MS+IAA 0.15 mg\5L-1的培养基上生根率为100%,平均根数达10.2条。     

印尼塔里阿布岛铁矿项目岩心钻探施工技术

在印尼塔里阿布铁矿项目岩心钻探施工中,其地层既具有泥岩、页岩、粘土岩的遇水膨胀、坍塌,又有凝灰岩、火山灰岩的遇水溶解及硅化石英岩的“打滑”,以及粉状铁矿取心难的特点。易出现卡钻、粘钻等孔内事故。通过大胆的探索,形成了针对该地区岩心钻探施工的一套施工工艺,取得了良好的钻探技术效果。详细介绍了印尼塔里阿布岛铁矿项目岩心钻探施工技术。
