Abstract Utilizing the unprecedented high-resolution Magnetospheric Multiscale mission data from 2015 September to 2017 December, we perform a statistical study of electron vortexes in the turbulent terrestrial magnetosheath. On the whole, 506 electron vortex events are successfully selected. Electron vortexes can occur at four known types of magnetic structures, including 78, 42, 26, and 39 electron vortexes observed during the crossings of the current sheets, magnetic holes, magnetic peaks, and flux ropes, respectively. Except for the four types of structures, the rest of the electron vortexes are in the “Others” category, defined as unknown structures. The electron vortexes mainly occur in the subsolar region, with only a few in the flank region. The total occurrence rate of all electron vortexes is 4.86 hr –1 , with, on average, 3.65 events hr −1 in the X-Y plane and 3.26 events hr −1 in the X-Z plane. The durations of most of the electron vortexes concentrate within 0.5–1.5 s and are 1.09 s on average. The electron vortexes are ion-scale structures owing to the average scale of 2.05 ion gyroradius. In addition, the means, medians, and maxima of the energy dissipation J · E ′ in the electron vortexes are almost positive, implying that the electron vortex may be a potential coherent structure or channel for turbulent energy dissipation. All these results reveal the statistical characteristics of electron vortexes in the magnetosheath and improve our understanding of energy dissipation in astrophysical and space plasmas.

This paper reports on a well-defined EUV wave associated with a coronal mass ejection (CME) observed on 2022 March 25. The CME was observed by Solar Orbiter (SolO) during its first close perihelion (0.32 au) and by several other spacecraft from different viewpoints. The EUV wave was visible by the Extreme Ultraviolet Imager on board the Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO-A/STA) in near quadrature to SolO. We perform a detailed analysis of the early phase of this CME in relation to the evolution of the associated EUV wave. The kinematics of the EUV wave and CME are derived via visual identification of the fronts using both the STA and SolO data. The analysis of an associated metric type II radio burst provides information on the early phase of the CME and wave propagation. Finally, we compare the EUV speed to the local magnetic field and Alfvén speed using standard models of the corona. The analysis of the decoupling between the EUV wave and the CME driver via imaging, kinematic study, radio data analysis, and comparison with maps/models clearly indicates that the EUV front is consistent with a wave initially driven by the lateral expansion of the CME, which evolves into a fast-mode magnetosonic wave after decoupling from the CME.

Abstract Asteroseismology is a powerful tool that may be applied to shed light on stellar interiors and stellar evolution. Mixed modes, behaving like acoustic waves in the envelope and buoyancy modes in the core, are remarkable because they allow for probing the radiative cores and evanescent zones of red giant stars. Here, we have developed a neural network that can accurately infer the coupling strength, a parameter related to the size of the evanescent zone, of solar-like stars in ∼5 ms. In comparison with existing methods, we found that only ∼43% of inferences were in agreement with a difference less than 0.03 in a sample of ∼1700 Kepler red giants. To understand the origin of these differences, we analyzed a few of these stars using independent techniques such as the Monte Carlo Markov Chain method and echelle diagrams. Through our analysis, we discovered that these alternate techniques are supportive of the neural-net inferences. We also demonstrate that the network can be used to yield estimates of coupling strength and period spacing in stars with structural discontinuities. Our findings suggest that the rate of decline in the coupling strength in the red giant branch is greater than previously believed. These results are in closer agreement with calculations of stellar-evolution models than prior estimates, further underscoring the remarkable success of stellar evolution theory and computation. Additionally, we show that the uncertainty in measuring period spacing increases rapidly with diminishing coupling strength.

Abstract By utilizing the spatially resolved photometry of galaxies at 0.2 < z < 3.0 in the CEERS field, we estimate the resolved and unresolved stellar mass via fitting of the spectral energy distribution (SED) to study the discrepancy between them. We first compare M * derived from photometry with and without the JWST wavelength coverage and find that M * can be overestimated by up to 0.2 dex when lacking rest-frame near-infrared (NIR) data. The SED fitting process tends to overestimate both stellar age and dust attenuation in the absence of rest-frame NIR data, consequently leading to a larger observed mass-to-light ratio and hence an elevated M * . With the inclusion of the JWST NIR photometry, we find no significant disparity between the estimates of resolved and unresolved stellar mass, providing a plausible solution to the conflict between them out to z ∼ 3. Further investigation demonstrates that reliable M * estimates can be obtained, regardless of whether they are derived from spatially resolved or spatially unresolved photometry, so long as the reddest filter included in the SED fitting has a rest-frame wavelength longer than 10000 Å.

Abstract Using the Very Long Baseline Array, we observed the active galactic nucleus (AGN) in NGC 3079 over a span of six months to test for variability in the two main parsec-scale radio components, A and B , which lie on either side of the AGN. We found evidence for positional differences in the positions of A and B over the six months consistent with the apparent motion of these components extrapolated from older archival data, finding that their projected rate of separation, (0.040 ± 0.003) c , has remained constant since ∼2004 when a slowdown concurrent with a dramatic brightening of source A occurred. This behavior is consistent with an interaction of source A with the interstellar medium (ISM), as has previously been suggested in the literature. We calculated the amount of mechanical feedback on the ISM for both the scenario in which A is an expulsion of material from the central engine and the scenario in which A is a shock front produced by a relativistic jet, the latter of which is favored by several lines of evidence we discuss. We find that the cumulative mechanical feedback on the ISM is between 2 × 10 44 and 1 × 10 48 erg for the expulsion scenario or between 3 × 10 50 and 1 × 10 52 erg for the jet scenario. Integrated over the volume-complete Fundamental Reference AGN Monitoring Experiment (FRAMEx) sample, our results imply that jet-mode mechanical feedback plays a negligible role in the energetics of AGNs in the local Universe.

Abstract The rotating vector model and radius-to-frequency mapping in the presence of a multipole magnetic field in pulsars and magnetars are considered. An axisymmetric potential field is assumed, and the following is found: (1) The radiation beam in the case of a multipole field is wider than the dipole case. This may account for the increasing pulse width at the higher frequency of pulsars (anti-radius-to-frequency mapping); (2) The expression for the polarization position angle is unchanged. Only the inclination angle α and phase constant ϕ 0 will change. The angle between the rotational axis and line of sight and the position angle constant ψ 0 will not change. When fitting the varying position angle of magnetars, these constraints should be considered. The appearance and disappearance of a multipole field may account for the changing slope of the position angle in the radio-emitting magnetar Swift J1818.0–1607. A similar but more active process in magnetar magnetospheres may account for the diverse position angle in fast radio bursts.

Abstract We investigated oscillations in an M8.7 solar flare (SOL2014-10-22), including quasi-periodic pulsations (QPPs) in light curves and Doppler shift oscillations in the flare loops. Using Bayesian-based Markov Chain Monte Carlo, Fast Fourier Transform, and wavelet analysis method, QPPs were identified at microwave and hard X-ray wave bands during the impulsive phase, and the dominant period is 40–50 s. They should be associated with a repetitive energy release process, which accelerates nonthermal electrons periodically. On the other hand, we cannot rule out the possibility of the modulation of external waves because of the lower temporal resolution of spectroscopic observation. However, almost immediately after QPPs, a minority of flare loops display their Doppler velocity oscillations with a significant period of ∼4 minutes, which are observed by the Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph at the coronal line Fe xxi 1354.08 Å ( T ∼ 10 7 K), while its intensity and width show no similar oscillation. Our observations suggest that flare loop oscillations are most likely the fast kink mode waves with a phase speed of ∼840 km s −1 . The magnetic field strength in flare loops was estimated to be 54–69 G via the coronal seismology. The QPPs and loop oscillation could be independent of each other in this event.
摘要研究了M8.7太阳耀斑(SOL2014-10-22)的振荡现象，包括光曲线上的准周期脉动和耀斑环路上的多普勒频移振荡。利用基于贝叶斯的马尔可夫链蒙特卡罗、快速傅立叶变换和小波分析方法，在脉冲相位的微波和硬x射线波段识别出QPPs，优势周期为40 ~ 50 s。它们应该与一个重复的能量释放过程相关联，该过程周期性地加速非热电子。另一方面，由于光谱观测的时间分辨率较低，我们不能排除外部波调制的可能性。然而，几乎在QPPs之后，少数耀斑环显示出其多普勒速度振荡，其显著周期为~ 4分钟，这是由日冕线Fe xxi 1354.08 Å (T ~ 10.7 K)的界面区域成像光谱仪观测到的，而其强度和宽度没有显示出类似的振荡。我们的观测表明，耀斑环振荡很可能是相位速度为~ 840 km s−1的快速扭结模式波。通过日冕地震学估计耀斑环的磁场强度为54 ~ 69 G。在这种情况下，QPPs和环振荡可以相互独立。

Abstract Recent cosmological hydrodynamical simulations have produced populations of numerical galaxies whose global star-forming properties are in good agreement with those of observed galaxies. Proper modeling of energetic feedback from supernovae and active galactic nuclei is critical to the ability of simulations to reproduce observed galaxy properties, and historically, such modeling has proven to be a challenge. Here, we analyze the local properties of central and satellite galaxies in the z = 0 snapshot of the TNG100 simulation as a test of feedback models. We generate a face-on projection of stellar particles in TNG100 galaxies, from which we demonstrate the existence of a resolved star-forming main sequence (Σ SFR –Σ * relation) with a slope and normalization that is in reasonable agreement with previous studies. We also present radial profiles of various galaxy populations for two parameters: the distance from the resolved main-sequence line (ΔΣ SFR ) and the luminosity-weighted stellar age (Age L ). We find that, on average, high-mass central and satellite galaxies quench from the inside out, while low-mass central and satellite galaxies have similar, flatter profiles. Overall, we find that, with the exception of the starburst population, the TNG100 feedback models yield simulated galaxies whose radial distributions of Age L and ΔΣ SFR agree with those of observed galaxies.

Abstract The relation between the event rate of long gamma-ray bursts and the star formation rate is still controversial, especially at the low-redshift end. Dong et al. confirmed that the gamma-ray burst rate always exceeds the star formation rate at a low redshift of z < 1 in spite of the sample completeness. However, the reason for low-redshift excess is still unclear. Since low-luminosity bursts are at smaller redshifts generally, we choose three Swift long burst samples and classify them into low- and high-luminosity bursts in order to check whether the low-redshift excess is existent and if the excess is biased by the sample size and completeness. To degenerate the redshift evolution from luminosity, we adopt the nonparametric method to study the event rate of the two types of long bursts in each sample. It is found that the high-luminosity burst rate is consistent with the star formation rate within the whole redshift range, while the event rate of low-luminosity bursts exceeds the star formation rate at a low redshift of z < 1. Consequently, we conclude that the low-redshift excess is contributed by the low-luminosity bursts with possibly new origins unconnected with the star formation, which is also independent of the sample size and the sample completeness.

Abstract Once further confirmed in future analyses, the radius and mass measurement of HESS J1731-347 with M=0.77−0.17+0.20M⊙ and R=10.4−0.78+0.86km will be among the lightest and smallest compact objects ever detected. This raises many questions about its nature and opens up the window for different theories to explain such a measurement. In this article, we use the information from Doroshenko et al. on the mass, radius, and surface temperature together with the multimessenger observations of neutron stars to investigate the possibility that HESS J1731-347 is one of the lightest observed neutron star, a strange quark star, a hybrid star with an early deconfinement phase transition, or a dark matter–admixed neutron star. The nucleonic and quark matter are modeled within realistic equation of states (EOSs) with a self-consistent calculation of the pairing gaps in quark matter. By performing the joint analysis of the thermal evolution and mass–radius constraint, we find evidence that within a 1 σ confidence level, HESS J1731-347 is consistent with the neutron star scenario with the soft EOS as well as with a strange and hybrid star with the early deconfinement phase transition with a strong quark pairing and neutron star admixed with dark matter.
