Résumé :

The twinkling of stars is a familiar example of scintillations, due to turbulence in the Earth’s atmosphere causing fluctuations in the refractive index of the air along the line of sight. Scintillations lead to time variations in the apparent position of the source, and hence to an angular broadening on integration over an observation time. Scintillations also lead to fluctuations in the intensity of the source. Pointlike astronomical radio sources such as pulsars and (the compact cores of some) quasars scintillate due to fluctuations in the electron density along the line of sight through th

ABSTRACT Ground-based photometry of bright stars is expected to be limited by atmospheric scintillation, although in practice observations are often limited by other sources of systematic noise. We analyse 122 nights of bright star (Gmag ≲ 11.5) photometry using the 20-cm telescopes of the Next-Generation Transit Survey (NGTS) at the Paranal Observatory in Chile. We compare the noise properties to theoretical noise models and we demonstrate that NGTS photometry of bright stars is indeed limited by atmospheric scintillation. We determine a median scintillation coefficient at the Paranal Observa

Résumé :

Antony (Tony) Hewish was a pioneer radio astronomer who will always be remembered as the leader of the team in 1967 that discovered the pulsars, which proved to be rapidly rotating, magnetized neutron stars. The discovery resulted from Tony's programme of systematic all-sky surveys to detect the scintillation, or flickering, of small angular diameter radio sources due to electron density fluctuations in the solar wind flowing out from the Sun. The large low-frequency 4.5-acre array was designed by Tony to find radio quasars, which often display radio scintillations, to estimate the angular siz

The transverse speed correlates with the z velocity derived independently using distance from the galactic plane, consistent with most neutron stars having been born near the galactic plane.

It is equipped with nested thin-foil mirrors which provide a large effective area over a wide energy range from 0.5 to 10 keV. Two different types of detectors, CCD cameras (SIS) and imaging gas scintillation proportional counters (GIS) are employed as the focal plane instruments.

Résumé :

AbstractThe discovery of pulsars was closely followed by the discovery of dispersion and scattering in the interstellar plasma (ionized interstellar medium - IISM). The rich phenomena of scattering and scintillation have since been successfully modelled as propagation through a statistically uniform plasma turbulence with an isotropic Kolmogorov spectrum of density. However, this enticingly simple model fails to explain the many recent observations, that show anisotropic scattering from highly localized regions of the IISM often referred to as phase screens.

The high brightness temperatures, the presence of strong and variable circular polarization and the observed lifetimes of a decade or more for several IDV sources, pose significant problems for synchrotron theory. “The fau

ABSTRACT We have conducted the first systematic search for interday variability in a large sample of extragalactic radio sources at 15 GHz. From the sample of 1158 radio-selected blazars monitored over an ∼10 yr span by the Owens Valley Radio Observatory 40-m telescope, we identified 20 sources exhibiting significant flux density variations on 4-d time-scales. The sky distribution of the variable sources is strongly dependent on the line-of-sight Galactic H α intensities from the Wisconsin H α Mapper Survey, demonstrating the contribution of interstellar scintillation (ISS) to their interday v

Résumé :

The european X-ray observatory (EXOSAT), which was launched in 1983 and which finished operations in April 1986, has brought a rich harvest of results in the period 1984-1987, surveyed here. The EXOSAT payload consisted of three sets of instruments: two low energy imaging telescopes (LE:E<2 KeV), a medium-energy experiment (ME:E=l-50KeV) and a gas scintillation proportional counter (GSPC:E=2-20KeV). Over most of the energy range covered, EXOSAT was not more sensitive than its predecessor, the american EINSTEIN satellite. But the EINSTEIN satellite is far from having exhausted the treasures

Résumé :

In this paper we argue for the possibility that even in the event of a Galaxy teeming with extraterrestrial intelligence (ETI) the probability of receiving recognizable signals from the ETIs may be very low. There are two majors factors that may limit our ability to detect other civilizations. (i) Evolutionary mismatches may cause difficulties analogous to humans attempting to communicate with lower primates. (ii) Independent evolutionary paths resulting from differing planetary/stellar environments may result in life whose cognitive processes and consequent perceptions of the universe are ver

Résumé :

An accurate measurement of the 140Ce(n,γ) energy-dependent cross-section was performed at the n_TOF facility at CERN. This cross-section is of great importance because it represents a bottleneck for the s-process nucleosynthesis and determines to a large extent the cerium abundance in stars. The measurement was motivated by the significant difference between the cerium abundance measured in globular clusters and the value predicted by theoretical stellar models. This discrepancy can be ascribed to an overestimation of the 140Ce capture cross-section due to a lack of accurate nuclear data. For

AbstractIn June 1995 we used the Parkes 64-m radio telescope to search for narrowband or pulsing signals of extraterrestrial intelligent (ETI) origin from the direction of the galactic center. This strategy was chosen so as to maximize the number of possibly detectable ETI signals within the beam, assuming that they are associated with stars and that their luminosity function is such that they can be detected at a distance of at least a few kiloparsecs. A total of 190 1.2–minute integrations were taken in a region of size 5.0° × 0.6° centered on the galactic center. Many positions in this regi

The question of the possible origin of one of the components of dark matter filling the galaxies is considered. The analysis of the “fate” of stellar electromagnetic radiation under the conditions of the eternal Universe is taken as a starting point. Based on a comparison of the average lifetime of a star in the active phase and the lifetime of the non-absorbed part of its radiation, it is concluded that the Universe is filled with stellar electromagnetic radiation. However, based on existing concepts, as well as the red shift found in the spectra of distant galaxies, the addition of new radia

The advantages of CsI:Tl-spectrometers are in the best energy resolution; much greater resistance to mechanical and electromagnetic influences due to the use of silicon photomultipliers (SiPM) instead of vacuum photomultiplier tubes (VPMT); much greater durability due to the very low hygroscopicity of the material.

Abstract We discovered rapid intra-day variability in radio source PMN J1726+0639 at GHz frequencies, during a survey to search for such variability with the Australia Telescope Compact Array. Follow-up observations were conducted over two years and revealed a clear, repeating annual cycle in the rate, or characteristic timescale, of variability, showing that the observed variations can be attributed to scintillations from interstellar plasma inhomogeneities. The strong annual cycle includes an apparent ‘standstill’ in April and another in September. We fit kinematic models to the data, allowi

Résumé :

Scintillation is a well-known phenomenon in astronomy, e.g. twinkling of stars due to scattering in the Earth’s atmosphere, and variability of compact radio sources due to scattering in the ionosphere and the solar wind. These examples correspond to the so-called regime of weak scattering. Radio pulsars scintillate as a result of scattering in the ionized interstellar medium, but in contrast to the previous cases, the physical régime corresponds to strong scattering. Pulsars exhibit two distinct kinds of variability, called diffractive scintillation and refractive scintillation, on timescales

The signatures of pulsars, fast radio bursts and flare stars are modelled, including frequency-dependent effects such as scattering and scintillation. We also simulate more generic signals using spline curves and images. Models of radio frequency interference include signals from satellites, terrestrial transmitters and i
