Unfortunately, this increases both the computational cost and output size of said models. We intend to explore if AI image recognition can alleviate this burden. We used DYNAMICO to run a series of HD 209458-like models with different orbital radii. Training data for a number of features of interest was selected from the initial outputs of these models. This was used to train a pair of multi-categorization convolutional neural networks (CNNs), which we applied to our outer-atmosphere-equilibrated models. The features detected by our CNNs revealed that our models fall into two regimes: models with shorter orbital radii exhibit significant global mixing that shapes the dynamics of the entire atmosphere, whereas models with longer orbital-radii exhibit negligible mixing except at mid-pressures. Here the initial nondetection of any trained features revealed a surprise: a nightside hot spot. Analysis suggests that this occurs when rotational influence is sufficiently weak that divergent flows from the dayside to the nightside dominate over rotational-driven transport, such as the equatorial jet. We suggest that image classification may play an important role in future, computational, atmospheric studies. However special care must be paid to the data feed into the model, from the color map, to training the CNN on features with enough breadth and complexity that the CNN can learn to detect them. However, by using preliminary studies and prior models, this should be more than achievable for future exascale calculations, allowing for a significant reduction in future workloads and computational resources.","PeriodicalId":50735,"journal":{"name":"Astrophysical Journal","volume":"138 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135714603","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is well known that the penumbra magnetic field extends into the upper layers of the solar atmosphere forming the so-called superpenumbra. Thanks to the application of the Self-organizing Map technique to a spectral data set containing monochromatic images acquired along the Ca ii 854.2 nm and H α 656.28 nm lines, we were able to segment the penumbra and to measure the plasma velocity along the chromospheric portions of penumbral filaments. We found that the head, body, and tail of penumbral filaments show vertical flows compatible with the persistence of the Evershed flow. Instead, the inverse Evershed flow has been observed only in the outer portion of the superpenumbra. We found that two opposite Evershed regimes work next to each other, without overlapping, and both contribute to the downflow around sunspots. These results confirm the uncombed model of the sunspot penumbra and provide some hints that the downflow around sunspots may be ascribed to the magnetic field dragging the plasma down.","PeriodicalId":50735,"journal":{"name":"Astrophysical Journal","volume":"20 7","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135715177","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We present a detailed feasibility study of constraining the binarity of the currently available two targets, Gaia BH1 and Gaia BH2. Specifically, we examine three types of radial velocity (RV) modulations of a tertiary star in star–BBH triple systems; short-term RV modulations induced by the inner BBH, long-term RV modulations induced by the nodal precession, and long-term RV modulations induced by the von Zeipel-Kozai–Lidov oscillations. Direct three-body simulations combined with approximate analytic models reveal that the Gaia BH1 system may exhibit observable signatures of the hidden inner BBH if it exists at all.

In this paper, we construct a chemical evolution model that is regulated by the SFH of the system. In this SFH-regulated model, the evolution of all other variables, including the MEH, can be determined by the SFH. We test this model on six locally isolated dwarf galaxies covering three dwarf types that were observed by the Local Cosmology from Isolated Dwarfs (LCID) project. The SFHs and MEHs of these LCID galaxies are relatively reliable because they have been measured from deep color–magnitude diagrams that reach the main-sequence turnoff stars with good photometric accuracy. With simple assumptions of the star formation law and the mass-dependent outflows, our SFH-regulated model successfully reproduces the MEHs of all six LCID galaxies from their SFHs, with only one free parameter, the wind efficiency η ∼ 1.0, for all six galaxies. This model provides a physically motivated link that directly connects the SFH and MEH of a galaxy, which will be useful to accommodate into the state-of-the-art stellar population synthesis models to help relieve the nuisance of the heavy degeneracy between the ages and metallicities of the stellar populations.","PeriodicalId":50735,"journal":{"name":"Astrophysical Journal","volume":"3 5","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135564455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We conducted a systematic study using the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) to examine 23 radio-bright candidate dual and off-nucleus quasars. The targets are selected by a novel astrometric technique ( varstrometry ) from Gaia, aiming to identify dual or off-nucleus quasars at (sub)kiloparsec scales. Among these quasars, eight exhibit either multiple radio components or significant (>3 σ ) positional offsets between the VLBA and Gaia positions. The radio emission from the three candidates, which exhibit multiple radio components, is likely to originate from small-scale jets based on their morphology. Among the remaining five candidates with significant VLBA-Gaia offsets, three are identified as potential dual quasars at parsec scales, one is likely attributed to small-scale jets, and the origin of the last candidate remains unclear. We explore alternative explanations for the observed VLBA-Gaia offsets. We find no evidence for optical jets at kiloparsec scales, nor any contamination to Gaia astrometric noise from the host galaxy; misaligned coordinate systems are unlikely to account for our offsets. Our study highlights the promise of the varstrometry technique in discovering candidate dual or off-nucleus quasars and emphasizes the need for further confirmation and investigation to validate and understand these intriguing candidates.","PeriodicalId":50735,"journal":{"name":"Astrophysical Journal","volume":"290 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135566531","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the Gaia proper motion–corrected catalog as an astrometric reference, we updated the astrometry of the five CANDELS mosaics and achieved an absolute alignment within 0.″02 ± 0.″02, on average, which is a factor of several superior to existing mosaics. These mosaics are available to download ( https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1k9WEV3tBOuRKBlcaTJ0-wTZnUCisS__r ). We investigated the systematic effects that need to be corrected for weak-lensing measurements. We find that the largest contributing systematic effect is caused by undersampling. We find a subpixel centroid dependence on the PSF shape that causes the PSF ellipticity and size to vary by up to 0.02% and 3%, respectively. Using the UDS as an example field, we show that undersampling induces a multiplicative shear bias of −0.025. We find that the brighter-fatter effect causes a 2% increase in the size of the PSF and discover a brighter-rounder effect that changes the ellipticity by 0.006. Based on the small range of slopes in a galaxy’s spectral energy distribution (SED) within the WFC3-IR bandpasses, we suggest that the impact of the galaxy SED on the PSF is minor. Finally, we model the PSF of WFC3-IR F160W for weak lensing using a principal component analysis. The PSF models account for temporal and spatial variations of the PSF.

In this paper, we estimate the energy content of an X1.4 eruptive flare with a fast CME generated by an HC eruption on 2011 September 22. Originating from NOAA Active Region 11302, the HC is the most dramatic feature in 131 and 94 Å images observed by the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). The flare is simultaneously observed by SDO/AIA, the Reuven Ramaty High-energy Solar Spectroscopic Imager, and the Extreme-ultraviolet Imager on board the “behind” Solar Terrestrial Relations Observatory (STEREO). The CME is simultaneously detected by the white-light coronagraphs of the Large Angle Spectroscopic Coronagraph on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory and the COR1 coronagraph on board the behind STEREO. Using multiwavelength and multiview observations of the eruption, various energy components of the HC, flare, and CME are calculated. The thermal and kinetic energies of the HC are (1.77 ± 0.61) × 10 30 erg and (2.90 ± 0.79) × 10 30 erg, respectively. The peak thermal energy of the flare and total radiative loss of the soft X-ray–emitting plasma are (1.63 ± 0.04) × 10 31 erg and (1.03–1.31) × 10 31 erg, respectively. The ratio between the thermal energies of the HC and flare is 0.11 ± 0.03, suggesting that the thermal energy of the HC is not negligible. The kinetic and potential energies of the CME are (3.43 ± 0.94) × 10 31 erg and (2.66 ± 0.49) × 10 30 erg, yielding a total energy of (3.69 ± 0.98) × 10 31 erg for the CME.

The propargyl radical, a highly abundant species in the dark molecular cloud TMC-1, is an important aromatic precursor in combustion flames and possibly interstellar environments. We performed astrochemical modeling of TMC-1 using the three-phase gas-grain code NAUTILUS and an updated chemical network, focused on refining the chemistry of the propargyl radical and related species. The abundance of the propargyl radical has been increased by half an order of magnitude compared to the previous GOTHAM network. This brings it closer in line with observations, but it remains underestimated by 2 orders of magnitude compared to its observed value. Predicted abundances for the chemically related C 4 H 3 N isomers within an order of magnitude of observed values corroborate the high efficiency of CN addition to closed-shell hydrocarbons under dark molecular cloud conditions. The results of our modeling provide insight into the chemical processes of the propargyl radical in dark molecular clouds and highlight the importance of resonance-stabilized radicals in polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon formation.","PeriodicalId":50735,"journal":{"name":"Astrophysical Journal","volume":"55 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135411325","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
