Observations were conducted twice a week for two consecutive days. In total, 38 measurements of the scintillation parameters were carried out with a high frequency resolution (up to 65 Hz). We used continuous signal recording in the frequency band of 2.5 MHz. The signal was reconstructed using the coherent dedispersion method. The pulsar’s dynamic spectra (DSP) were analyzed using the two-dimensional autocorrelation function (2DACF). The fine frequency structure of the pulsar’s scintillation was investigated both through the analysis of time and frequency sections of 2DACF from DSP and through the spectra of individual pulses. The analysis of the frequency sections of the 2DACF showed that the true form of diffractive frequency distortions can be represented by a generalized exponential function with a characteristic frequency width of 1.2 kHz and an index of 0.57. Comparison of scintillation parameters separately for two components of the average profile showed that they are identical for both components.</p>","PeriodicalId":55440,"journal":{"name":"Astronomy Reports","volume":"68 2","pages":"168 - 182"},"PeriodicalIF":1.1,"publicationDate":"2024-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141502565","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"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}

The objects of the program were asteroids: (1) Ceres, (53) Kalypso, (117) Lomia, (164) Eva, (214) Ashera, (324) Bamberga, (419) Aurelia, (505) Cava, (554) Peraga, (654) Zelinda, (704) Interamnia, (1021) Flammario. Polarimetric observations of asteroids (117) Lomia, (164) Eva and (505) Kava were made for the first time, the remaining asteroids were observed earlier. Only for two asteroids (1) Ceres and (704) Interamnia, according to spectrophotometric observations, temporal spectrophotometric variability was noted earlier. Analysis of temporal changes in the degree of polarization of asteroids and comparison of the results of observations with the data available in the literature showed that the stability of the observed degree of polarization is comparable with measurement errors of <span>( sim {kern 1pt} (0.02{-} 0.1))</span>% for asteroids of different brightness. Thus, during the observation period, no noticeable polarization signs of temporary sublimation-dust activity of the observed asteroids were detected.

The asteroid (554) Peraga has been confirmed to have a negative degree of polarization at angles less than the inversion angle.
