Abstract The arc magmatism and volcanic activity in Java are dominated by the subducting plate of Indo-Australian into the Eurasian plate. Merapi volcano is located in Central Java and known as one of the most active volcanoes in the world. Several studies have tried to estimate the magma reservoir zone in Mt. Merapi and suggested multiple layers of reservoirs with the shallow one at 1-2 km and a deeper at 6 -9 km or 15 km. The Low-Frequency Passive Seismic is one method to analyze the frequency spectrum below the recording station. Previous related studies show a promising a relation between hydrocarbon reservoir and higher amplitude at vertical component at a frequency between 0.1 – 6 Hz. An observation at the volcano sites have also been reported to display a different spectrum amplitude at the vertical component. This study exploited the same method in LFPS to analyze the frequency spectrum at Mt. Merapi and Mt. Merbabu. We use seismic data from the DOMERAPI temporary seismic network installed in the neighborhood of Merapi and Merbabu volcano. We analyze 53 broad-band seismometers data from October 2013 to mid-April 2015. We also add several stations from MERAMEX network instruments to compare spectrum analysis outside the Merapi and Merbabu volcano. We also removed some tele-seismic and regional events from the data to better analyze the LFPS signal. We have seen a higher amplitude in vertical component near Mt. Merapi and will proceed to analyze all stations.

Abstract Depth–time records of isopycnal vertical strain have been collected from intensive CTD profiling programs on the research platform (R/P) Floating Instrument Platform (FLIP). The associated vertical wavenumber frequency spectrum of strain, when viewed in an isopycnal-following frame, displays a clear spectral gap at low vertical wavenumber, separating the quasigeostrophic (vortical) strain field and the superinertial internal wave continuum. This gap enables both model and linear-filter-based methods for separating the submesoscale and internal wave strain fields. These fields are examined independently in six field programs spanning the period 1983–2002. Vortical and internal wave strain variances are often comparable in the upper thermocline, of order 0.2. However, vortical strain tends to decrease with increasing depth (decreasing buoyancy frequency as ~(N2)1/2, while internal wave strain variance increases as ~(N2)−1/2, exceeding vortical variance by a factor of 5–10 at depths below 500 m. In contrast to strain, the low-frequency spectral gap in the shear spectrum is largely obscured by Doppler-smeared near-inertial motions. The vertical wavenumber spectrum of anticyclonic shear exceeds the cyclonic shear and strain spectra at all scales greater than 10 m. The frequency spectrum of anticyclonic shear exceeds that of both cyclonic shear and strain to frequencies of 0.5 cph, emphasizing the importance of lateral Doppler shifting of near-inertial shear. The limited Doppler shifting of the vortical strain field implies surprisingly small submesoscale aspect ratios: kH/kz ~ 0.001, Burger numbers Br = kH N/kzf ~ 0.1. Submesoscale potential vorticity is dominated by vertical straining rather than the vertical component of relative vorticity. The inferred rms fluctuation of fluid vorticity is far less for the vortical field than for the internal wavefield.

Decametric wavelength imaging has been largely neglected in the quest for higher angular resolution because ionospheric structure limited interferometric imaging to short (< 5 km) baselines. The long wavelength (LW, 2—20 m or 15—150 MHz) portion of the electromagnetic spectrum thus remains poorly explored. The NRL-NRAO 74 MHz Very Large Array has demonstrated that self-calibration techniques can remove ionospheric distortions over arbitrarily long baselines. This has inspired the Low Frequency Array (LOFAR)—-a fully electronic, broad-band (15—150 MHz)antenna array which will provide an improvement of 2—3 orders of magnitude in resolution and sensitivity over the state of the art.

AbstractMatching the broad-band emission of active galaxies with the predictions of theoretical models can be used to derive constraints on the properties of the emitting region and to probe the physical processes involved. AP Librae is the third low frequency peaked BL Lac (LBL) detected at very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) by an Atmospheric Cherenkov Telescope; most VHE BL Lacs (34 out of 39) belong to the high-frequency and intermediate-frequency BL Lac classes (HBL and IBL). LBL objects tend to have a higher luminosity with lower peak frequencies than HBLs or IBLs. The characterization of their time-averaged spectral energy distribution is challenging for emission models such as synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) models.

The acceleration of ions from thermal velocities is analyzed to determine conditions under which heavy ions can be preferentially accelerated. Two accelerating mechanisms involving high-and low-frequency hydromagnetic waves respectively are considered. Preferential acceleration of heavy ions occurs for high-frequency waves if the frequency spectrum falls off faster than (frequency)−1. For the low-frequency waves heavy ions are less effectively accelerated than lighter ions. However, very heavy ions can be preferentially accelerated, the abundances of the very heavy ions being enhanced by a factor Ai over the thermal abundances. Acceleration of ions in the envelope of the Crab nebula is considered as an example.

The Banyumas Basin is a tertiary sedimentary basin located in southern Central Java, Indonesia. Due to the presence of volcanic deposits, 2-D seismic reflection methods cannot provide a good estimation of the sediment thickness and the subsurface geology structure in this area. In this study, the passive seismic tomography (PST) method was applied to image the 3-D subsurface Vp, Vs, and Vp/Vs ratio. We used 70 seismograph borehole stations with a recording duration of 177 days. A total of 354 events with 9, 370 P and 9, 368 S phases were used as input for tomographic inversion. The checkshot data of a 4, 400-meter deep exploration well (Jati-1) located within the seismic network were used to constrain the shallow crustal layer of the initial 1-D velocity model. The model resolution of the tomographic inversions was assessed using the checkerboard resolution test (CRT), the diagonal resolution element (DRE), and the derivative weight sum (DWS). Using the obtained Vp, Vs, and Vp/Vs ratio, we were able to sharpen details of the geological structures within the basin from previous geological studies, and a fault could be well-imaged at a depth of 4 km. We interpreted this as the main dextral strike-slip fault that controls the pull apart process of the Banyumas Basin. The thickness of the sediment layers, as well as its layering, were also could be well determined. We found prominent features of the velocity contrast that aligned very well with the boundary between the Halang and Rambatan formations as observed in the Jati-1 well data. Furthermore, an anticline structure, which is a potential structural trap for the petroleum system in the Banyumas Basin, was also well imaged. This was made possible due to the dense borehole seismographic stations which were deployed in the study area.
