  • Taku Yonemoto Why Is the Sun's Corona So Hot?
    2020/09/14 Taku Yonemoto Why is the Sun’s Corona So Hot? Observational studies of the sun have been conducted since ancient times, beginning with the sketched observations of sunspots by Galileo Galilei about 400 years ago. However, many features of the sun, such as the mystery of the hotness Fig.1 The Sun’s structure[1] of the solar corona, are unsolved. The corona is the place where flares, or solar surface explosions, cause sudden energy release (Fig.1), and these mass ejections are closely related to the occurrence of magnetic storms on Earth. Although the reason is unknown, the sun’s corona is hotter by a factor of 150~450 than the effective temperature on the surface of the sun. The photosphere’s average temperature is 5,800 Kelvin, while that of the corona is 1-3 million Kelvin. The density of the corona is 10-12 times lower than the photosphere, so the corona produces 10-6 times as much visible light as the photosphere, and can be observed with soft X-rays. The corona is separated from the photosphere by the relatively shallow chromosphere. The thin region of chromosphere in which the temperature increases is known as the transition region, which ranges from only tens to hundreds of kilometers thick. The amount of power required to heat the corona can be easily calculated as the difference between coronal radiative losses and heating by thermal conduction toward the chromosphere through the transition region. It is about one kilowatt for every square meter of surface area on the sun's chromosphere, or 1/40000 of the amount of light energy that escapes the sun.

  • Lurking in the Shadows: Wide-Separation Gas Giants As Tracers of Planet Formation
    Lurking in the Shadows: Wide-Separation Gas Giants as Tracers of Planet Formation Thesis by Marta Levesque Bryan In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY Pasadena, California 2018 Defended May 1, 2018 ii © 2018 Marta Levesque Bryan ORCID: [0000-0002-6076-5967] All rights reserved iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First and foremost I would like to thank Heather Knutson, who I had the great privilege of working with as my thesis advisor. Her encouragement, guidance, and perspective helped me navigate many a challenging problem, and my conversations with her were a consistent source of positivity and learning throughout my time at Caltech. I leave graduate school a better scientist and person for having her as a role model. Heather fostered a wonderfully positive and supportive environment for her students, giving us the space to explore and grow - I could not have asked for a better advisor or research experience. I would also like to thank Konstantin Batygin for enthusiastic and illuminating discussions that always left me more excited to explore the result at hand. Thank you as well to Dimitri Mawet for providing both expertise and contagious optimism for some of my latest direct imaging endeavors. Thank you to the rest of my thesis committee, namely Geoff Blake, Evan Kirby, and Chuck Steidel for their support, helpful conversations, and insightful questions. I am grateful to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Brendan Bowler. His talk at Caltech my second year of graduate school introduced me to an unexpected population of massive wide-separation planetary-mass companions, and lead to a long-running collaboration from which several of my thesis projects were born.

  • Multi-Periodic Photospheric Pulsations and Connected Wind Structures in HD 64760
    A&A 447, 325–341 (2006) Astronomy DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361:20053847 & c ESO 2006 Astrophysics Multi-periodic photospheric pulsations and connected wind structures in HD 64760 A. Kaufer1,O.Stahl2,R.K.Prinja3, and D. Witherick3, 1 European Southern Observatory, Alonso de Cordova 3107, Casilla 19001, Santiago 19, Chile e-mail: [email protected] 2 Landessternwarte Heidelberg, Königstuhl 12, 69117 Heidelberg, Germany 3 Department of Physics & Astronomy, University College London, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT, UK Received 18 July 2005 / Accepted 17 October 2005 ABSTRACT We report on the results of an extended optical spectroscopic monitoring campaign on the early-type B supergiant HD 64760 (B0.5 Ib) designed to probe the deep-seated origin of spatial wind structure in massive stars. This new study is based on high-resolution echelle spectra obtained with the Feros instrument at ESO La Silla. 279 spectra were collected over 10 nights between February 14 and 24, 2003. From the period analysis of the line-profile variability of the photospheric lines we identify three closely spaced periods around 4.810 h and a splitting of ±3%. The velocity – phase diagrams of the line-profile variations for the distinct periods reveal characteristic prograde non-radial pulsation patterns of high order corresponding to pulsation modes with l and m in the range 6−10. A detailed modeling of the multi-periodic non-radial pulsations with the Bruce and Kylie pulsation-model codes (Townsend 1997b, MNRAS, 284, 839) favors either three modes with l = −m and l = 8, 6, 8 or m = −6andl = 8, 6, 10 with the second case maintaining the closely spaced periods in the co-rotating frame.

  • Binocular Universe: You're My Hero! December 2010
    Binocular Universe: You're My Hero! December 2010 Phil Harrington on't you just love a happy ending? I know I do. Picture this. Princess Andromeda, a helpless damsel in distress, chained to a rock as a ferocious D sea monster loomed nearby. Just when all appeared lost, our hero -- Perseus! -- plunges out of the sky, kills the monster, and sweeps up our maiden in his arms. Together, they fly off into the sunset on his winged horse to live happily ever after. Such is the stuff of myths and legends. That story, the legend of Perseus and Andromeda, was recounted in last month's column when we visited some binocular targets within the constellation Cassiopeia. In mythology, Queen Cassiopeia was Andromeda's mother, and the cause for her peril in the first place. Left: Autumn star map from Star Watch by Phil Harrington Above: Finder chart for this month's Binocular Universe. Chart adapted from Touring the Universe through Binoculars Atlas (TUBA), www.philharrington.net/tuba.htm This month, we return to the scene of the rescue, to our hero, Perseus. He stands in our sky to the east of Cassiopeia and Andromeda, should the Queen's bragging get her daughter into hot water again. The constellation's brightest star, Mirfak (Alpha [α] Persei), lies about two-thirds of the way along a line that stretches from Pegasus to the bright star Capella in Auriga. Shining at magnitude +1.8, Mirfak is classified as a class F5 white supergiant. It radiates some 5,000 times the energy of our Sun and has a diameter 62 times larger.

    Enthalpy-based Thermal Evolution of Loops: III. Comparison of zero-dimensional models P. J. Cargill1,2, S.J. Bradshaw3 and J.A. Klimchuk4 1. Space and Atmospheric Physics, The Blackett Laboratory, Imperial College, London SW7 2BW 2. School of Mathematics and Statistics, University of St Andrews, St Andrews, Scotland KY16 9SS 3. Department of Physics and Astronomy, Rice University, Houston, TX 77005 4. NASA Goddard Space Flight Center, Solar Physics Lab., Code 671, Greenbelt, MD 20771 Abstract Zero dimensional (0D) hydrodynamic models, provide a simple and quick way to study the thermal evolution of coronal loops subjected to time-dependent heating. This paper presents a comparison of a number of 0D models that have been published in the past and is intended to provide a guide for those interested in either using the old models or developing new ones. The principal difference between the models is the way the exchange of mass and energy between corona, transition region and chromosphere is treated, as plasma cycles into and out of a loop during a heating- cooling cycle. It is shown that models based on the principles of mass and energy conservation can give satisfactory results at some, or, in the case of the Enthalpy Based Thermal Evolution of Loops (EBTEL) model, all stages of the loop evolution. Empirical models can lead to low coronal densities, spurious delays between the peak density and temperature, and, for short heating pulses, overly short loop lifetimes. Submitted: 17 June 2012. 1 1. Introduction Modelling the response of coronal loops to time-dependent flare or flare-like heating has a long history (e.g.

    17th Annual SSM Poster Session — 2005 Abstracts by Number 1 Ichthyoplankton Distribution Patterns Across the Continental Shelf off Charleston, SC Ryan Yaden and Gorka Sancho, Department of Biology To compare the seasonal and spatial distribution of ichthyolplankton across the continental shelf off the coast of Charleston a transect was made across the continental shelf. The collection plankton samples took place on a 5 day cruise November 19 and 2004. Seven samples were analyzed by removing ichthyoplankton from other zooplankton. Ichthyoplankton taxa Leptocephalus, Scombridae, Ophidiidae, Pleurinectiformes, and Syngnathidae were identified picked and counted. Larval fishes that could not be classified were put into the "unknown" category. Data were compared with similar collections from May 2004. The abundance of larval fish in November was greater than the abundance in May. The greater abundance in November 2004 could be related to the spawning seasons of fishes over the continental self and Gulf Stream. 2 Lifespan of philometrid larvae (Margolisianum bulbosum) and their infectivity in the copepod Oithona colcarva under different abiotic conditions Lam C. Tsoi1, Vincent A. Conners2, and Isaure deBuron1 1Department of Biology, College of Charleston 2Department of Biology, University of South Carolina-Upstatet Margolisianum bulbosum is a philometrid nematode whose large and viviparous females are found in the buccal and gill cavities of the Southern flounder, Paralichthys lethostigma. As part of a study of the biology of this worm we determined the optimal abiotic (salinity and temperature) conditions for larval survival and infectivity in the hypothesized copepod intermediate host. Experimental infections of copepods collected in the Charleston Harbor showed that the cyclopoid Oithona colcarva was the only species to become infected.
