Abstract Extraplanar structures of ionized gas are detected in numerous edge-on galaxies. Whether HII regions or supernovae (SNe) responsible for its ionization is still debated. Here, we consider the H α {rm{H}}alpha emissivity from shells of superbubbles driven by SNe explosions in a stellar cluster located either in the midplane or above the midplane of the disc. We found that these shells form filamentary structures emitting brightly in H α {rm{H}}alpha line at height of ∼ 0.6 sim 0.6 – 1.6 kpc 1.6hspace{0.33em}{rm{kpc}} above the disc depending on cluster location and gas metallicity. The H α {rm{H}}alpha surface brightness ranges within ∼ 1 0 − 17 sim 1{0}^{-17} – 1 0 − 16 erg s − 1 cm − 2 arcsec − 2 1{0}^{-16}hspace{0.33em}{rm{erg}}hspace{0.33em}{{rm{s}}}^{-1}hspace{0.33em}{{rm{cm}}}^{-2}hspace{0.33em}{{rm{arcsec}}}^{-2} are close to the values observed in edge-on galaxies. We conclude that the H α {rm{H}}alpha emission of extraplanar structures can be explained by recombination in collisionally ionized gas of unstable shells driven by multiple SNe.

Abstract The analysis of radio emission of three new pulsars discovered at the Pushchino Radio Astronomy Observatory is presented. The detailed observations were carried out at a frequency of 111 MHz using the large phase array and the standard digital receiver with a total bandwidth of 2.245 MHz and a time resolution of 2.46 or 5.12 ms. All pulsars exhibit features of their radiation, the subpulse drift is observed in J0220+3622, the flare activity is exhibited in J0303+2248, and the nulling phenomenon has been detected in J0810+3725.

Abstract Ever-increasing space debris poses a great threat to spacecraft safety; its removal debuts as an innovative technology and will be in demand in the future. This article proposes a design for micro/nano joint satellites composed of four micro/nanosatellites with high maneuverability to clear space debris. The design incorporates two operating modes with typical applications, and the joint satellite features and essential key technologies are introduced. With the aim to demonstrate well-performed image data fusion and processing of the design, four cameras with different spectral and optical properties are installed for each micro/nanosatellite to acquire images and spectral characteristics for multifeatured identification of debris based on comprehensive analysis. Due to the different remote sensing payloads of the four micro/nanosatellites, the joint satellite is also capable of remote sensing. Compared with a single micro/nanosatellite, the joint satellite is more accurate for debris identification and rapid on-orbit maneuverability in addition to the superior flexibility brought by a touch-and-unfold separating removal mechanism.

Abstract I present a detection of four new triple-mode high-amplitude Delta Scuti variables, pulsating in the fundamental, first, and second overtone modes. This is a new addition to the ten known cases in the Galaxy. I used the data of ASAS-SN and analyzed them using the WinEfk code by V. P. Goranskij. Light elements and parameters of the light curves were obtained.

Abstract Considering that some tasks will require the consistency of the position and attitude of the end-effector, multi-space-robot cooperative capture also needs to consider the synchronization of the two capture arms. Taking the dual-space robots as example, the trajectory planning problem before cooperative capture is focused. First, a drive-transform method based on trapezoidal velocity interpolation is proposed, which combines the advantages of these two methods to obtain the SE(3) motion trajectory, in which the attitude and position are planned synchronously. Then, the trajectory optimization model of cooperative capture is established, which takes the optimal time and the minimum attitude disturbance of the base as the optimization goals, and simultaneously satisfies that the two capture arms reach the capture point synchronously. In order to solve this multi-objective optimization problem, a dual-population multi-objective fruit fly algorithm based on non-dominated sorting was proposed. Finally, the simulation example of dual-space robots shows that the proposed algorithm is effective, and the analysis of the optimal solution set demonstrates that the optimized cooperative capture trajectory is smooth and synchronous.

Abstract In order to process and visualise the monochromatic images of regions of the Sun obtained with the CCD multichannel spectroheliograph, the freely distributed programs ImageJ and ParaView were chosen and then fine-tuned. This reduced the time required to develop the data processing and visualization software for this instrument and also made it easier to make further corrections and additions to it.

Abstract Supernovae explosions (SNe) in a stratified interstellar disc can create large scale structures and outflows perpendicular to the disc. Their morphology and emission characteristics depend on interrelations between the number of exploded SNe, the ISM vertical scale height, the height above the ISM disc at which SNe are located, and the mid-plane density of ambient gas. When observed such out-of-plane gas structures do characterize properties of the driving SNe and reveal the presence of underlying stellar clusters. Even though the morphology and emission properties of such structures are sensitive to characteristics of ambient gas they might be used for rough estimates of the clusters’ mass.

Abstract Proportional navigation guidance law (PNG) is widely used for passive homing missiles. But PNG often suffers from inaccurate tracking of target or even failure when the target is maneuvering quickly or releasing artificial decoys. In order to solve this problem, the angular acceleration compensation guidance law (AACG) is constructed by using line of sight (LOS) angular velocity and LOS angular acceleration. The stability analysis with Lyapunov stability theory shows that AACG system is asymptotically stable on a large scale under certain stability constraint conditions. AACG command is designed to be perpendicular to the LOS and optimized by gravity compensation. AACG is neither dependent on target acceleration nor the distance between the missile and the target. The numerical simulation results indicate that AACG has good guidance performance on air-to-air missiles when the target maneuvers violently or releases artificial decoys in the endgame term.
