    Particle astrophysics (1991)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-31
    Description: The following scientific areas are reviewed: (1) cosmology and particle physics (particle physics and the early universe, dark matter, and other relics); (2) stellar physics and particles (solar neutrinos, supernovae, and unconventional particle physics); (3) high energy gamma ray and neutrino astronomy; (4) cosmic rays (space and ground observations). Highest scientific priorities for the next decade include implementation of the current program, new initiatives, and longer-term programs. Essential technological developments, such as cryogenic detectors of particles, new solar neutrino techniques, and new extensive air shower detectors, are discussed. Also a certain number of institutional issues (the funding of particle astrophysics, recommended funding mechanisms, recommended facilities, international collaborations, and education and technology) which will become critical in the coming decade are presented.

    A model of V356 Sagittarii (1978)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-17
    Description: It is pointed out that V356 Sgr is an abnormal member of the Algol class of binaries. According to Popper (1955), the primary component is of spectral type B3V and is rotating rapidly, while the secondary is of type A2II and is rotating at least approximately in synchronism with the orbital motion. The system is either semidetached or quite near to being semidetached. The main anomalies are related to the ratio of eclipse depths, the very small reflection effect of the light curves, differences between the duration of the primary and the secondary eclipse, and the unusual characteristics of the primary eclipse. It is concluded that the lack of agreement between theory and observation can be due only to an important attribute of the binary which has not yet been incorporated into the theory. The peculiarities can most reasonably be explained in terms of a geometrically and optically thick disk which surrounds the primary component.

    Constraints on cosmic strings due to black holes formed from collapsed cosmic string loops (1993)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-28
    Description: The cosmological features of primordial black holes formed from collapsed cosmic string loops are studied. Observational restrictions on a population of primordial black holes are used to restrict f, the fraction of cosmic string loops which collapse to form black holes, and mu, the cosmic string mass-per-unit length. Using a realistic model of cosmic strings, we find the strongest restriction on the parameters f and mu is due to the energy density in 100MeV photons radiated by the black holes. We also find that inert black hole remnants cannot serve as the dark matter. If earlier, crude estimates of f are reliable, our results severely restrict mu, and therefore limit the viability of the cosmic string large-scale structure scenario.

    CO isotope mapping of L 134 N (1979)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-06-27
    Description: Mapping of the dark cloud L 134 N in (C-12)O and (C-13)O has shown that at least two subclouds are distinguishable spatially and in velocity. (C-12)O emission is distributed over an area of about 90 arcmin diameter with a maximum temperature of about 11 K; for (C-13)O these are about 50 arcmin and 4 K. Linewidths increase from the edge of the cloud inward to a peak of about 2.5 km/s at the position of the (C-13)O temperature maximum. Line velocities show much variation as a function of position, but the predominant emission component occurs at 2.5-3 km/s in the LSR frame. Comparisons are made with earlier observations of L 134 N and with recent observations of L 134.

    The Unified Radio and Plasma wave investigation (1992)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-07-12
    Description: The scientific objectives of the Ulysses Unified Radio and Plasma wave (URAP) experiment are twofold: (1) the determination of the direction, angular size, and polarization of radio sources for remote sensing of the heliosphere and the Jovian magnetosphere and (2) the detailed study of local wave phenomena, which determine the transport coefficients of the ambient plasma. A brief discussion of the scientific goals of the experiment is followed by a comprehensive description of the instrument. The URAP sensors consist of a 72.5 m electric field antenna in the spin plane, a 7.5-m electric field monopole along the spin axis of a pair of orthogonal search coil magnetic antennas. The various receivers, designed to encompass specific needs of the investigation, cover the frequency range from dc to 1 MHz. A relaxation sounder provides very accurate electron density measurements. Radio and plasma wave observations are shown to demonstrate the capabilities and limitations of the URAP instruments: radio observations include solar bursts, auroral kilometric radiation, and Jovian bursts; plasma waves include Langmuir waves, ion acousticlike noise, and whistlers.

    The unusual supernova SN1993J in the galaxy M81 (1993)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2019-08-28
    Description: Supernova 1993J in the galaxy M81 is the second-brightest type II supernova observed this century, surpassed only by SN1987A in the Large Magellanic Cloud. Here we report the evolution of the photometric and spectral properties of SN1993J for the first 50 d following its discovery. The behavior of this supernova is unusual, showing features typical of type II supernovae near the initial maximum, but with the strong helium lines characteristic of type Ib supernovae at later times. This implies that the progenitor star had an unusually thin hydrogen envelope (compared to normal type II progenitors), suggesting that significant mass loss had taken place before the explosion. Application of an expanding photosphere model to our data provides an estimate of the distance to the supernova of 2.6 +/- 0.4 Mpc, broadly consistent with the distance to M81 determined using Cepheid variable stars. Supernova models that more closely match the atypical spectral features of SN1993J may change the inferred distance, and should provide better constraints on the structure of the progenitor.
