Abstract Results of long time observations of the pulsar B0950+08 are given. These observations were carried out at the LPA radio telescope at the frequency of 111 MHz from January of 2016 to May of 2019 (450 days). A strong variability in emission of this pulsar has been detected with changes of signal to noise ratios hundreds of times. Part of long-time flux density variability can be explained by the refractive scintillations in the interstellar medium. The existence of radiation between the interpulse (IP) and main pulse (MP) was confirmed. It was more powerful than at high frequencies. We detected the unusual interpulse and precursor (Pr) radiation on August 1, 2017. On the base of strong 65 interpulses we found the correlations between energies of IP and Pr and between the phase of IP and the distance Pr-IP. It is shown that the observed peculiarities of this pulsar can be explained in the frame of the aligned rotator model. We estimated distances of radiation levels from the center of the neutron star. The calculated value of the initial period of 0.2 sec means that not all pulsars are born with millisecond periods. The large age of the pulsar (6.8 millions of years) and the small angle between its magnetic moment and the rotation axis (less than 20°) confirm the suggestion on the pulsar evolution to an alignment.

Abstract Massive stars can explode as supernovae at the end of their life cycle, releasing neutrinos whose total energy reaches 1053erg. Moreover, neutrinos play key roles in supernovae, heating and reviving the shock wave as well as cooling the resulting proto-neutron star. Therefore, neutrino detectors are waiting to observe the next galactic supernova and several theoretical simulations of supernova neutrinos are underway. While these simulation concentrate mainly on only the first one second after the supernova bounce, the only observation of a supernova with neutrinos, SN 1987A, revealed that neutrino emission lasts for more than 10 seconds. For this reason, long-time simulation and analysis tools are needed to compare theories with the next observation. Our study is to develop an integrated supernova analysis framework to prepare an analysis pipeline for treating galactic supernovae observations in the near future. This framework deals with the core-collapse, bounce and proto-neutron star cooling processes, as well as with neutrino detection on earth in a consistent manner. We have developed a new long-time supernova simulation in one dimension that explodes successfully and computes the neutrino emission for up to 20 seconds. Using this model we estimate the resulting neutrino signal in the Super-Kamiokande detector to be about 1,800 events for an explosion at 10 kpc and discuss its implications in this paper. We compare this result with the SN 1987A observation to test its reliability.

AbstractBroadband linear polarization in the spectra of Ap stars is believed to be due to differential saturation between σ and π Zeeman components in spectral lines. This mechanism has been known for a long time to be the main agent of a similar phenomenon observed in sunspots. Since this phenomenon has been carefully calibrated in the solar case, it can be confidently used to deduce the magnetic field of Ap stars.Given the magnetic configuration of a rotating star, it is possible to deduce the broadband polarization at any phase. Calculations performed for the oblique dipole model show that the resulting polarization diagrams are very sensitive to the values of i (the angle between the rotation axis and the line of sight) and β (the angle between the rotation and magnetic axes). The dependence on i and β is such that the four-fold ambiguity typical of the circular polarization observations ((i,β), (β,i), (π-i,π-β), (π-β,π-i)) can be removed.

Abstract Most articles made from elastic substances are intended for service under dynamic conditions. Static methods of investigation are clearly insufficient for determining the behavior of elastic substances under dynamic conditions and therefore there has for a long time been a need for dynamic tests. In recent years several dynamic tests have been developed, and a number of investigations of elastic properties under dynamic conditions have been published. The works of Frumkin, Roelig, Kosten, Naunton and Waring and other investigators have established a series of relations in the behavior of elastic substances under dynamic conditions. However, the limited intervals of frequency and temperature in these experiments gave relations of peculiar character and even led to contradictions. Thus Naunton and Waring showed that, under dynamic conditions (at high frequencies), automobile tire casings act as solid hoops and, according to Roelig and Kosten, the relation between modulus and frequency, though still existing, is of relatively little importance. The development of a concept of the mechanism of highly elastic deformation, and in particular the disclosure of relaxation made it possible for Kornfel'd and Poznyak and Mikhai˘lov and Kirilina to demonstrate experimentally the existence of a more general law relating the phenomena. However, in their experiments, the frequency in both cases changed within narrow limits, and consequently these investigations too do not give a general picture of the behavior of elastic materials in relation to the frequency of deformation and temperature. The idea of highly elastic deformation, as well as that of relaxation, comes down to the fact that the magnitudes of the deformations observed depend on the relation between the time of action of the force and the time required for regrouping of the particles in the substance during the deformation.

AbstractIn the last years a series of blind and/or targeted pulsar searches led to almost triple the number of known binary pulsars in the galactic field with respect to a decade ago. The focus will be on few outliers, which are emerging from the average properties of the enlarged binary pulsar population. Some of them may represent the long sought missing links between two kinds of neutron star binaries, while others could represent the stereotype of new groups of binaries, resulting from an evolutionary path which is more exotic than those considered until recently. In particular, a new class of binaries, which can be dubbed Ultra Low Mass Binary Pulsars (ULMBPs), is emerging from recent data.

This work investigates the dynamical evolution of a rotating magnetic star which drives a stellar wind. The basic magnetic field of the star is supposed symmetric about an axis, which is inclined at an angle X to the rotation axis k (Figure 1). We adopt the familiar equations of an inviscid perfectly conducting gas. In a steady state, the velocity as seen in a frame rotating with the star is taken as

ABSTRACT We present a new method of matching observations of Type-I (thermonuclear) X-ray bursts with models, comparing the predictions of a semi-analytic ignition model with X-ray observations of the accretion-powered millisecond pulsar SAX J1808.4–3658 in outburst. We used a Bayesian analysis approach to marginalize over the parameters of interest and determine parameters such as fuel composition, distance/anisotropy factors, neutron star mass, and neutron star radius. Our study includes a treatment of the system inclination effects, inferring that the rotation axis of the system is inclined $\left(69^{+4}_{-2}\right)^\circ$ from the observers line of sight, assuming a flat disc model. This method can be applied to any accreting source that exhibits Type-I X-ray bursts. We find a hydrogen mass fraction of $0.57^{+0.13}_{-0.14}$ and CNO metallicity of $0.013^{+0.006}_{-0.004}$ for the accreted fuel is required by the model to match the observed burst energies, for a distance to the source of $3.3^{+0.3}_{-0.2}\, \mathrm{kpc}$. We infer a neutron star mass of $1.5^{+0.6}_{-0.3}\, \mathrm{M}_{\odot }$ and radius of $11.8^{+1.3}_{-0.9}\, \mathrm{km}$ for a surface gravity of $1.9^{+0.7}_{-0.4}\times 10^{14}\, \mathrm{cm}\, \mathrm{s}^{-2}$ for SAX J1808.4–3658.

Tomographic Data

There is high demand for efficient, robust and automated routines for tomographic data reduction, particularly for synchrotron data. Registration of the rotation axis in data processing is a critical step affecting the quality of the reconstruction and is not easily implemented with automation. Existing methods for calculating the center of rotation have been reviewed and an improved algorithm to register the rotation axis in tomographic data is presented. The performance of the proposed method is evaluated using synchrotron-based microtomography data on geological samples with and without artificial reduction of the signal-to-noise ratio. The proposed method improves the reconstruction quality by correcting both the tilting error and the translational offset of the rotation axis. The limitation of this promising method is also discussed.

Abstract A forced oscillating-disk rheometer has been developed which can measure both the low and high frequency dynamic properties of a rubber specimen throughout vulcanization. It may also be used to measure the rheological properties of unvulcanized polymers. The instrument consists of a cone-shaped disk which is embedded in the rubber specimen and oscillated through a small angle while the specimen is heated under pressure. Both stress and strain in terms of torque and displacement, respectively, are measured by appropriate transducers and recorded on an oscillograph. Provisions are made for changing both frequency and strain. At low frequency, the instrument is a convenient tool for determining all of the curing parameters of a rubber specimen. At high frequencies, the change in the dynamic properties of a rubber specimen throughout vulcanization may be continuously followed. A unique feature of the rheometer is that the loss angle may be determined which permits resolution of the measured dynamic stiffness into its elastic and viscous components.
