The saucer-shaped aircraft is a novel aircraft adopting blend-wing-body configuration. The linear perturbation theory based on the classic flight dynamics was used to analyze the longitudinal, lateral and directional flight qualities of the saucer-shaped aircraft under low speed conditions. The flight qualities were given. Meanwhile the aerodynamic characteristics of the saucer-shaped aircraft, the conventional aircraft and the flying wing aircraft were also contrasted to discuss their similarities and differences. The results show that the saucer-shaped aircraft has stable longitudinal mode, rollover mode and Dutch roll mode. The spiral mode is unstable. The saucer-shaped aircraft exhibits superior flight qualities and excellent comprehensive performances.

AbstractComparison of galaxy flows with those predicted from the local galaxy distribution ended as an active field after two analyses came to vastly different conclusions 25 years ago, but that was due to faulty data. All the old results are therefore suspect. With new data collected in the last several years, the problem deserves another look. The goal is to explain the 640 km/s dipole anisotropy of the CMBR. For this we analyze the gravity field inferred from the enormous data set derived from the 2MASS collection of galaxies (Huchra et al. 2005), and compare it to the velocity field derived from the well calibrated SFI++ Tully-Fisher catalog (Springob et al. 2007). Using the “Inverse Method” to minimize Malmquist biases, within 10,000 km/s the gravity field is seen to predict the velocity field (Davis et al. 2011) to remarkable consistency. This is a beautiful demonstration of linear perturbation theory and is fully consistent with standard values of the cosmological variables.

ABSTRACT Using the canonical Hamilton–Jacobi approach we study the Lynden-Bell concept of bar formation based on the idea of orbital trapping parallel to the long or short axes of the oval potential distortion. The concept considered a single parameter – a sign of the derivative of the precession rate over angular momentum, determining the orientation of the trapped orbits. We derived a perturbation Hamiltonian that includes two more parameters characterizing the background disc and the perturbation, which are just as important as the earlier known one. This allows us to link the concept with the matrix approach in linear perturbation theory, the theory of weak bars, and explain some features of the non-linear secular evolution observed in N-body simulations.

We construct two solutions of the minimally coupled Einstein-scalar field equations, representing regular deformations of Schwarzschild black holes by a self-interacting, static, scalar field. One solution features an exponentially decaying scalar field and a triple-well interaction potential; the other one is completely analytic and sprouts Coulomb-like scalar hair. Both evade the no-hair theorem by having partially negative potential, in conflict with the dominant energy condition. The linear perturbation theory around such backgrounds is developed in general, and yields stability criteria in terms of effective potentials for an analog Schrödinger problem. We can test for more than half of the perturbation modes, and our solutions prove to be stable against those.

ABSTRACT A new so-called ‘gravitational loss-cone instability’ in stellar systems has recently been investigated theoretically in the framework of linear perturbation theory and proved to be potentially important in understanding the physical processes in centres of galaxies, star clusters, and the Oort Cloud. Using N-body simulations of a toy model, we confirm previous findings for the dominating harmonic potential and go beyond the linear theory. Unlike the well-known instabilities, the new one shows no notable change in the spherical geometry of the cluster, but it significantly accelerates the speed of diffusion of particles in phase space leading to an early instability saturation.
