Detection of a New "chemical" Boundary at Comet Halley
Plasma observations near comet Halley indicate that around 1.6x105km from the nucleus a newly discovered sharp boundary (cometopause) separates the solar wind controlled external and the heavy cometary ion dominated internal regions. Such a discontinuity was previously not predicted by theoretical models. Inside the cometopause (in the cometary plasma region) the protons and heavy ions move wit...
متن کاملThe Distributed Co in Comet Halley
Examination of the spatial distribution of CO intensity of Comet Halley indicates that a large fraction of CO originates from the refractory organic component in the coma, rather than directly from the volatiles in the nucleus. Based on the fluffy aggregate interstellar dust comet model, we have estimated the upper limits of the total amount of CO provided by coma dust. The implications from th...
متن کاملOn the diamagnetic effect associated with the ion pile-up region in the coma of comet Halley
The ion pile-up region in the comet Halley ionosphere observed on the inbound leg of the Giotto trajectory is accompanied by a decrease of the magnetic field strength. This magnetic field dip is explained by means of a diamagnetic effect of the plasma density increase in the pile-up region. Maximum of the plasma pressure seems to coincide with the maximum of the ion density. We arrived at the c...
متن کاملPolarimetric studies of comet Halley
In the present work, the non-spherical grain characteristics of comet Halley are analysed using the T-matrix method at λ= 0.365,0.485 and 0.684μm respectively. In order to analyse the polarisation data of comet Halley, the dust size distribution function derived by Das et al. (2004) for comet Halley is used in the present work. The size range of the grains is taken to be 0.01μm≤ s ≤ 3μm. Using ...
متن کاملthe role of thematic structure in comprehending spoken language
in fact this study is concerned with the relationship between the variation in thematice structure and the comprehension of spoken language. so the study focused on the following questions: 1. is there any relationship between thematic structure and the comprehension of spoken language? 2. which of the themes would have greated thematic force and be easier for the subjects to comprehend? accord...
