Troubled probe upholds Einstein : Nature News
First funded in 1963, Gravity Probe B relied on technology that was out of reach for decades. Finally launched in 2004, it carried four gyroscopes — made up of fused quartz balls coated with superconducting niobium that rotated up to 5,000 times per minute. Each ball produced a magnetic field, so that changes in their orientations relative to a guide star, IM Pegasi, could be measured. The poin...
متن کاملDiagnosing Magnetars with Transient Cooling
Transient X-ray emission, with an approximate t−0.7 decay, was observed from SGR 1900+14 over 40 days following the the giant flare of 27 Aug 1998. We calculate in detail the diffusion of heat to the surface of a neutron star through an intense 1014 − 1015 G magnetic field, following the release of magnetic energy in its outer layers. We show that the power law index, the fraction of burst ener...
متن کاملDetecting unknown sequences with DNA microarrays: explorative probe design strategies.
Designing environmental DNA microarrays that can be used to survey the extreme diversity of microorganisms existing in nature, represents a stimulating challenge in the field of molecular ecology. Indeed, recent efforts in metagenomics have produced a substantial amount of sequence information from various ecosystems, and will continue to accumulate large amounts of sequence data given the qual...
متن کاملMagnetars origin and progenitors with enhanced rotation
Among a dozen known magnetar-candidates there are no binary objects. As an estimate of a fraction of binary neutron stars is about 10% it is reasonable to address the question of solitarity of magnetars, to estimate theoretically the fraction of binary objects among them, and to mark out the most probable companions. We present population synthesis calculations of binary systems. Our goal is to...
متن کاملCooling of magnetars with internal layer heating
We model thermal evolution of magnetars with a phenomenological heat source in a spherical internal layer and compare the results with observations of persistent thermal radiation from magnetars. We show that the heat source should be located in the outer magnetar’s crust, at densities ρ 5 × 1011 g cm−3, and the heating rate should be ∼ 1020 erg cm−3 s−1. Heating deeper layers is extremely inef...
