星系形成的半解析模型研究进展

基于目前流行的冷暗物质等级成团理论的星系形成的半解析模型取得了很大进展．在引入一系列合理的关于重子物质物理过程的假设，如气体冷却、恒星形成率、超新星能量反馈以后，结合N体数值模拟，星系形成的半解析模型一方面能较成功地预言许多与观测符合的近邻星系的性质，如光度函数、星系的两点相关函数、Thlly-Fisher关系、星系团中椭圆星系的颜色一星等关系等；另一方面还能较成功地预言宇宙的恒星形成历史，以及一部分高红移星系的性质，如Lyman-Break星系的数目随红移的分布．但是最近一些观测表明，半解析模型在高红移预言的大质量星系较少，且红星系数目也较观测少．重点讨论半解析模型成功与不足之处，并指出解决这些问题可能的途径。     

Implications for unified schemes from submillimetre and far-infrared follow-up of radio-selected samples

We extend our previous analysis which used generalized luminosity functions (GLFs) to predict the number of quasars and galaxies in low-radio-frequency-selected samples as a function of redshift, radio luminosity, narrow-emission-line luminosity and type of unified scheme. Our extended analysis incorporates the observed submillimetre (850-μm) flux densities of radio sources, employs a new method which allows us to deal with non-detections, and focuses on the high-luminosity population. First, we conclude that the submillimetre luminosity L ₈₅₀ of low-frequency-selected radio sources is correlated with the bolometric luminosity L _bol of their quasar nuclei via an approximate scaling relation   L ₈₅₀∝ L ^0.7±0.2_bol  . Secondly, we conclude that there is quantitative evidence for a receding-torus-like physical process for the high-luminosity population within a two-population unified scheme for radio sources; this evidence comes from the fact that radio quasars are brighter in both narrow emission lines and submillimetre luminosity than radio galaxies matched in radio luminosity and redshift. Thirdly, we note that the combination of a receding-torus-like scheme and the assumption that the observed submillimetre emission is dominated by quasar-heated dust yields a scaling relation   L ₈₅₀∝ L ^1/2_bol  which is within the errors of that determined here for radio-selected quasars, and consistent with that inferred for radio-quiet quasars.     

致密对称源OQ208自行的研究

利用美国甚长基线阵,在5GHz和8GHz波段观测致密对称源(CSO)OQ208,由获得的总流量图均显示OQ208是由2个主要的射电结构组成。5GHz波段在该源西南(SW)部分和东北(NE)部分都探测到2个子源。8GHz波段在该源(SW)部分探测到2个子源,而在(NE)部分探测到3个子源。在5GHz波段,根据子源A和D自1993年到2001年间的5个时段VLBI观测成图结果,拟合出它们的分离速度为0.037±0.006mas/a(年)。在8GHz波段,根据1994年到2002年间的9个时段观测数据,获得子源A和C的分离速度为0.046±0.009mas/a。     

低部主序恒星锂和铍的衰减

根据化学非均匀恒星的非局部对流理论,计算了质量为0．7-1．15M(?)恒星主序演化模型锂和铍的衰减,并将理论和不同年龄疏散星团锂丰度的观测进行了比较．结果表明,贯穿对流混合能重现温度低于6400 K的晚型主序星锂丰度观测的一般性质．贯穿对流混合可能是晚型矮星锂衰减的一种重要机制．
