Underground water Cherenkov muon detector array with the Tibet air shower array for gamma-ray astronomy in the 100 TeV region

We propose to build a large water-Cherenkov-type muon-detector array (Tibet MD array) around the 37 000 m² Tibet air shower array (Tibet AS array) already constructed at 4300 m above sea level in Tibet, China. Each muon detector is a waterproof concrete pool, 6 m wide × 6 m long × 1.5 m deep in size, equipped with a 20 inch-in-diameter PMT. The Tibet MD array consists of 240 muon detectors set up 2.5 m underground. Its total effective area will be 8640 m² for muon detection. The Tibet MD array will significantly improve gamma-ray sensitivity of the Tibet AS array in the 100 TeV region (10–1000 TeV) by means of gamma/hadron separation based on counting the number of muons accompanying an air shower. The Tibet AS+MD array will have the sensitivity to gamma rays in the 100 TeV region by an order of magnitude better than any other previous existing detectors in the world.

Chandra observations of Tycho’s supernova remnant

We present a newChandra observation of Tycho’s supernova remnant with the Advanced CCD Imaging Spectrometer. Multicolor Xray imaging reveals new details of the outer shock and ejecta. At energies between 4 and 6 keV, the outline of the outer shock is clearly revealed in X-rays for the first time. The distribution of the emission from lines of Si and Fe are confirmed to have a different morphology from each other, and the Si ejecta are shown to extend to the blast shock at several locations. Characteristic spectra of the outer shock and ejecta are also presented.

延时参数对地震信号信噪比的改善

当测区噪声很强,采用组合震源工作仍然不能得到高质量地震数据,为进一步提高地震信号的信噪比,引入能形成定向地震波的相控震源.相控震源产生的地震波方向可由延时参数控制,因此延时参数是影响相控地震效果的重要参数.理论分析表明,定向地震波技术可提高反射波信号信噪比,以含3个激震器的相控震源为例,信噪比可提高6.53~9.54 dB.针对延时参数分别为0,0.802,0.384,0.241,0.174,0.123 ms的情况,完成了野外地震实验.根据原始地震记录,得到了反射波信号功率谱,在此基础上定量地计算了不同延时参数下目标层反射信号的信噪比.结果表明,与单震源情况相比,在6种延时参数下,反射波信噪比分别提高了3.3150,8.0150,6.0547,5.0278,4.5383,4.0364 dB;与组合震源情况相比,信噪比分别提高了0,4.7000,2.7397,1.7128,1.2233,0.7214 dB.综合理论分析及野外实验结果,我们可以得到这样的结论：定向地震波技术能够提高反射波信号信噪比,延时参数变化对信噪比有很大影响,采用合理的延时参数能得到更高的信噪比.

针对超声混凝土缺陷检测信噪比低、穿透深度浅的问题,提出利用线性调频（LFM）信号检测混凝土缺陷。通过在发射端发射时宽和带宽的积大于1的LFM信号,在接收端将回波脉冲压缩,得到主瓣较窄,信噪比较高的压缩信号。理论分析了换能器带宽对压缩效果的影响。数值计算结果表明,在一定幅度的噪声存在条件下,回波信号经过脉冲压缩后仍能够得到好的压缩效果。实际检测结果表明,压缩后的LFM信号较压缩前检测信号明显提高了信噪比。     

Mechanism Analysis of GPS-IR Technology Based on SNR

The available research on technology mechanism of reflected wave reception, the use of the SNR observations of low elevating angle and the form of SNR residuals for GPS-IR is not clear enough, and they are almost interpreted by experiments. This paper analyzed the GPS-IR technology mechanism from the aspects of theories and experiments. The right hand circular polarized wave transmitted by GPS satellite is partly converted into left hand circular polarized wave after one reflection, and the conversion ratio increases with the increase of satellite elevating angle and dielectric constant. When the right hand circular polarized wave is perpendicular to the surface of the perfect conductor, it can be all converted into left hand circular polarized wave after a reflection; At the same time, in the case of the measuring GPS receiver equipped with the baffle plate, because of the diffraction phenomenon, the antenna of the measuring GPS receiver can still receive the right hand circular polarized wave in the reflected signal. When the elevating angle is smaller or the dielectric constant of the reflector is larger, the less GPS incident wave energy of vertically polarized wave and parallel polarized wave is transmitted to the reflector. The more intense the reflected wave is, the worse the SNR is affected by the reflected wave, and there are more right hand circular polarized waves that can be received. Therefore, the GPS-IR uses the SNR observations of low elevating angle (such as under 30°). When the elevating angle changes and the range is smaller, the SNR residuals sequence is approximately "cosine curve", and thus, an inversion model based on SNR residuals is established.     

基于接收阵列的时域地震波束形成方法

地震勘探中,针对目的层地震数据信噪比较低情况,为改善信噪比,本文提出一种基于接收阵列的时域地震波束形成方法(TSBBRA).该方法的理论依据是波束形成原理,文中通过对相控震源激发定向地震波场的分析,提出在反射地震勘探中,在信号接收端同样能生成定向地震波的思路.具体地,论文给出在地震数据集上先对单炮记录分组,再对组内记录时域内延时、叠加,生成对应定向地震波场的地震记录的方法.TSBBRA方法适于杂波干扰强,且杂波与目的层反射波方向不一致的地震条件.本文先通过波场模拟,展示了TSBBRA方法具有形成定向地震波场的能力;而后通过对比相控震源与TSBBBRA时间剖面,说明了TSBBRA方法的有效性;最后在吉林某油页岩矿区,用TSBBRA方法,分别针对浅层目标与深层目标,生成定向地震波数据.与原始数据相比,目标层信噪比提高了3~35 dB,在时间剖面上观测到的深部目标信号从200 ms扩展到1000 ms,TSBBRA剖面资料与测区附近区域的地质与地震资料一致.由此得出结论,TSBBRA方法有助于改善目的层地震资料信噪比,当关注深部目的层时,由于TSBBRA方法能有效压制噪声,因此可用于能够实现更大的勘探深度.实验中,我们给出了浅层勘探结果,由于本方法对震源及观测系统没有限制,实际应用中TSBBRA方法可作为深部资源勘探领域提高深部地震资料信噪比的有效方法.
