微PNT与综合PNT

综合定位导航授时是后GNSS(全球卫星导航系统)发展的必然趋势。本文侧重梳理微PNT发展需求和发展现状,分析与之关联的核心关键技术,论述综合PNT与微PNT的关系。强调综合PNT需要大量基础设施投入与建设,而微PNT侧重高技术传感器的集成应用。与现有文献思路不同的是,我们认为,为了实现各类传感器PNT输出结果的坐标基准统一和时间尺度一致,微PNT应包含多模GNSS和芯片级惯性导航和芯片级原子钟等定位定时组件,微PNT强调小型化、个性化、组合化服务终端;微PNT除各PNT组件的小型化外,还包括各组件的深度集成,各类数据的自适应融合和各组件的自主标校;当然,微PNT也强调各传感器信息的时空基准的统一。     

GNSS测站速度估计模型重建

获取准确的GNSS测站速度对于研究全球板块运动、地壳形变、地震活动及其地球动力学过程至关重要。为此,以GNSS基线解算后的基线向量作为观测值,重建了最小二乘综合速度解算模型和卡尔曼滤波速度估计模型。模型中,考虑了测站坐标、运动速度、年、半年周期项一同作为参数,在基线解网平差的同时,一并求解获取速度估值。同时,利用坐标时序分析的方法,顾及白噪声和幂律噪声的影响,对单日解坐标时间序列重建了时序速度拟合估计模型,以获取长期趋势项作为速度值。基于3种模型,对川滇地区中国地壳运动观测网络2010—2014年21个GPS基准站的观测数据进行了速度估计与对比分析。结果表明:3种模型所估计测站速度非常接近,差异基本处于0~1mm/a范围之内;速度估值中误差均在亚毫米水平。由此得出,3种速度估计模型具有本质的一致性,均可正确估计测站运动速度,能够满足高精度地壳形变研究的需要。     

Geographies of high frequency trading – Algorithmic capitalism and its contradictory elements

This paper investigates the geographies of high frequency trading. Today shares shift hands within microseconds, giving rise to a form of financial geographies termed algorithmic capitalism. This notion refers to the different spatio-temporalities produced by high frequency trading, under the valuation of time. As high frequency trading accelerates financial markets, the paper examines the spatio-temporalities of automated trading by the ways in which the speed of knowledge exploitation in financial markets is not only of interest, but also the expansion between different temporalities. The paper demonstrates how the intensification of time–space compression produces radical new dynamics in the financial market and develops information rent in HFT as convertible to a time rent and a spatio-temporal rent. The final section discusses whether high frequency trading only responds to crises in microseconds or constitutes them. It argues that automated trading will not only contribute to accelerate crises, but also deepen them by the ways in which it differentiates the dynamics between financial, fixed and productive capital.     

Is ‘Centre of Volume’ a robust indicator of changes in snowmelt timing?

The centre of volume (COV), or the hydrograph centroid, is a measure of streamflow timing that is a widely used indicator of the effects of warmer temperatures on the hydrology of snowmelt streams. The COV was originally developed as a measure of land‐use effects, and its response is affected by several factors other than temperature, particularly total run‐off. A ‘toy’ model is used to demonstrate some of these effects, and these effects are also shown for streamflow data from Canada's Reference Hydrologic Basin Network. These deficiencies indicate that COV is neither specific nor robust as an indicator. Although these effects might be overcome by streamflow decomposition, the use of COV as an indicator of snowmelt timing should be avoided. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

OPTIMA: A Photon Counting High-Speed Photometer

OPTIMA is a small, versatile high-speed photometer which is primarily intended for time resolved observations of young high energy pulsars at optical wavelengths. The detector system consists of eight fiber fed photon counters based on avalanche photodiodes, a GPS timing receiver, an integrating CCD camera to ensure the correct pointing of the telescope and a computerized control unit. Since January 1999 OPTIMA proves its scientific potential by measuring a very detailed light-curve of the Crab Pulsar as well as by observing cataclysmic variable stars on very short timescales. In this article we describe the design of the detector system focussing on the photon counting units and the software control which correlates the detected photons with the GPS timing signal. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Spiral and staircase inclusion trail axes within garnet and staurolite porphyroblasts from schists of the Bolton Syncline, Connecticut: timing of porphyroblast growth and the effects of fold development

In the Littleton Formation, garnet porphyroblasts preserve three generations of growth that occurred before formation of the Bolton Syncline. Inclusion trails of foliations overgrown by these porphyroblasts are always truncated by the matrix foliation suggesting that garnet growth predated the matrix foliation. In contrast, many staurolite porphyroblasts grew synchronously with formation of the Bolton Syncline. However, local rim overgrowths of the matrix foliation suggest that some staurolite porphyroblasts continued to grow after development of the fold during younger crenulation producing deformations. The axes of curvature or intersection of foliations defined by inclusion trails inside the garnet porphyroblasts lie oblique to the axial plane of the Bolton Syncline but do not change orientation across it. This suggests the garnets were not rotated during the subsequent deformation associated with fold development or during even younger crenulation events. Three samples also contain a different set of axes defined by curvature of inclusion trails in the cores of garnet porphyroblasts suggesting a protracted history of garnet growth. Foliation intersection axes in staurolite porphyroblasts are consistently orientated close to the trend of the axial plane of the Bolton Syncline on both limbs of the fold. In contrast, axes defined by curvature or intersection of foliations in the rims of staurolite porphyroblasts in two samples exhibit a different trend. This phase of staurolite growth is associated with a crenulation producing deformation that postdated formation of the Bolton Syncline. Measurement of foliation intersection axes defined by inclusion trails in both garnet and staurolite porphyroblasts has enabled the timing of growth relative to one another and to the development of the Bolton Syncline to be distinguished in rocks where other approaches have not been successful. Consistent orientation of foliation intersection axes across a range of younger structures suggests that the porphyroblasts did not rotate relative to geographical coordinates during subsequent ductile deformation. Foliation intersection axes in porphyroblasts are thus useful for correlating phases of porphyroblastic growth in this region.     

A general timing condition for consecutive collision orbits in the limiting case µ = 0 of the elliptic restricted problem

Consecutive collision orbits in the limiting case µ = 0 of the elliptic restricted three-body problem are investigated. in particular those in which the infinitesimal mass collides twice with the smaller (massless) primary. A timing condition is presented that allows the extension of previous results to the case of arbitrary relative orientation of the orbits of the infinitesimal mass and the smaller primary. The timing condition is expressed in two general forms - in terms of orbit parameters and eccentric (or hyperbolic) anomalies at the times of collision - for the specific cases of elliptic. parabolic or hyperbolic orbits of the infinitesimal mass. Some families of solutions are presented.
