McCauley1 · Y. Su2,1 · N. Schanche1 · K. E. Evans3,1 · C. Su4,2 · S. McKillop1 · K. K. Reeves1 c Springer •••• Abstract We present a statistical study of prominence and filament eruptions observed by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) aboard the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). Several properties are recorded for 904 events that were culled from the Heliophysics Event Knowledgebase (HEK) and incorporated into an online catalog for general use. These characteristics include the filament and eruption type, eruption symmetry and direction, apparent twisting and writhing motions, and the presence of vertical threads and coronal cavities. Associated flares and white-light coronal mass ejections (CME) are also recorded. Total rates are given for each property along with how they differ among filament types. We also examine the kinematics of 106 limb events to characterize the distinct slow- and fast-rise phases often exhibited by filament eruptions. The average fast-rise onset height, slow-rise duration, slow-rise velocity, maximum field-of-view (FOV) velocity, and maximum FOV acceleration are 83 Mm, 4.4 hours, 2.1 km s-1, 106km s-1, and 111m s-2, respectively. All parameters exhibit lognormal probability distributions similar to that of CME speeds. A positive correlation between latitude and fast-rise onset height is found, which we attribute to a corresponding negative correlation in the average vertical magnetic field gradient, or decay index, estimated from potential field source surface (PFSS) extrapolations. We also find the decay index at the fast-rise onset point to be 1.1 on average, consistent with the critical instability threshold theorized for straight current channels.

    The Cost of Astronomy - publishing fees in astronomy: Case of Denmark by Bertil F. Dorch ([email protected]) University Library of Southern Denmark, SDU Background: What is the cost of free access = Open Access? In March 2016 The New York Times wrote that “Journal publishers collectively earned 10 billion USD last year, much of it from research libraries, which pay annual subscription fees ranging from 2,000 to 35,000 USD per title if they don’t Summary buy subscriptions of bundled titles, which cost millions. The largest companies, like Elsevier, Taylor & Francis, Springer and Wiley, typically have profit margins of over 30 percent” (Murphy 2016). • This poster deals with the direct cost of In the same article, Peter Suber, the director of Harvard’s Office of Scholarly publishing in Danish astronomy and Communication was quoted saying that “the prices have been rising twice as fast astrophysics since 2000. as the price of health care over the past 20 years, so there’s a real scandal there to • This is work in progress – would you like be exposed”. One solution, Suber was quoted saying, “was to persuade researchers to join? to publish in Open Access journals like those under the umbrella of the Public Library of Science, or PLOS, co-founded by Dr. Eisen at Berkeley.

  • Electromagnetic Emission from Circumbinary Disk of Merging Black Holes
    An Acad Bras Cienc (2021) 93(Suppl. 1): e20200801 DOI 10.1590/0001-3765202120200801 Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências | Annals of the Brazilian Academy of Sciences Printed ISSN 0001-3765 I Online ISSN 1678-2690 www.scielo.br/aabc | www.fb.com/aabcjournal PHYSICAL SCIENCES Electromagnetic emission from circumbinary disk of merging black holes DMITRY V. BISIKALO & ANDREY G. ZHILKIN Abstract: In the paper a scenario of an electromagnetic response formation from the merging of two black holes is considered. In this scenario it’s assumed that the binary black hole is surrounded by an accretion disk. As a result of the black holes merging and mass loss, the accretion disk experiences a disturbance, which is accompanied by shock waves propagation of sufficiently high intensity. Heating of matter by shock waves leads to a sharp increase in the flux of electromagnetic radiation from the disk. The paper includes a calculated light curve, radiation spectrum, and the estimation of characteristic duration of the flare. This method can be used to discover of electromagnetic responses from gravitational-wave events, which registered by the LIGO (Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory) and the Virgo detectors. Supporting the registration of gravitational-wave events by observations in the electromagnetic channel has far-reaching prospects, since it corresponds to the ”multi-messenger” approach to the study of astrophysical objects. Key words: gravitational waves, black holes, binary stars, accretion disks. INTRODUCTION In classical observational astronomy, two important ”channels” or ”windows” were used to study objects. The first channel is associated with detection of electromagnetic radiation from space objects in the entire spectral range, from radio to gamma emission.

    Sp.-V/AQuan/1999/10/27:15:54 Page 1 Chapter 1 Introduction Arthur N. Cox 1.1 Background ......................... 1 1.2 Astronomical Symbols .................. 2 1.3 Astronomical and Astrophysical Journals ....... 2 1.1 BACKGROUND This handbook is a revision of the third edition of Allen’s Astrophysical Quantities [1], published in 1973, with further printings in 1976, 1981, and 1983. An attempt has been made to follow the original format, but the great advances in astronomical and astrophysical subfields have made this very difficult. More modern styles have been adopted, and many more subjects have been included. However, the original concept to present a rather concise, but still extensive, listing of astrophysical quantities has been retained. It is expected that scientists can use this book for quick information and also for key references to more detailed data sources. One concept was that this handbook be a companion to A Physicist’s Desk Reference, the second edition of Physics Vade Mecum, edited by Herbert L. Anderson. That book also has a long author list, and its currently planned revision will undoubtedly include even more. To allow for space to present information for newly developed astronomical and astrophysical subfields, some more classical material has been deleted. Reference to the older Allen editions might be necessary. The current fields are so extensive that we needed 90 authors. They are indicated either as chapter authors or authors of individual sections. All were asked to present their information using the electronic editing language LATEX2ε, so that the submissions to the publisher could be almost camera ready.

  • On the Nature of Quiescent Light Curves Demonstrated by WZ Sge Stars
    Submitted to Astronomy Letters 000, 1–?? () Printed 28 August 2018 (MN LATEX style file v2.2) On the nature of quiescent light curves demonstrated by WZ Sge stars D. A. Kononov1,⋆ C. H. S. Lacy2, V. B. Puzin1 V. P. Kozhevnikov3, A. Yu. Sytov1, A. P. Lyaptsev3 1Institute of Astronomy of RAS, 48 Pyatnitskaya Str., Moscow, 119017, Russia 2University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, AR 72701, USA 3Astronomical Observatory, Ural Federal University, 51 Lenin Ave., Ekaterinburg, 620083, Russia 28 August 2018 ABSTRACT We present the results of simultaneous spectroscopic and photometric observations of the cataclysmic variable star (hereafter CVs) V455 Andromedae, belonging to the WZ Sge sub-class, in quiescence. Using the spectroscopic data we computed time- resolved Doppler tomograms of the system demonstrating its behavior at different orbital phases. In the tomograms one can see the periodic brightening of different regions within one orbital cycle. We interpret this brightening as being due to the interaction of four phase-locked shock waves in the disk with a specific internal pre- cessing density wave that develops inside the disk, because of the tidal influence of the secondary star, and this density wave propagates up to the disk’s outer regions. The shock waves, located in the outer regions of the disk, are: two arms of the tidal shock; the ”hot line”, a shock occurring in the region of the interaction between the stream from the L1 point and the disk; and a bow-shock, occurring ahead of the disk due to its orbital supersonic motion in the circumbinary gas. When the outer part of the density wave in its precessional motion reaches a shock wave the local density grows, which amplifies the shock (by increasing ρV 2/2).
