Gravitational atmospheric tides as a probe of Titan's interior: application to Dragonfly
نویسندگان
چکیده
Context. Saturn’s massive gravity is expected to causes a tide in Titan’s atmosphere, producing surface pressure variation through the orbit of Titan and tidal winds troposphere. The future Dragonfly mission could analyse this exotic meteorological phenomenon.

To probe into pulsar’s interior through gravitational waves
The gravitational radiation from compact pulsar-like stars depends on the state of dense matter at supranuclear densities, i.e., the nature of pulsar (e.g., either normal neutron stars or quark stars). The solid quark star model is focused for the nature of pulsar-like compact objects. Possible gravitational emission of quark stars (either fluid or solid) during the birth and later lifetime is ...
متن کاملExalting in atmospheric tides as earthquake precursor
During February–March 1998, we observed a significant increase (6–8 dB) in the electric field of the CZE (f = 270 kHz, Czech Republic) broadcasting station at a site named AS and located in central Italy. On 13 March 1998 an earthquake (M = 5.2) occurred in Slovenia, starting a strong seismic crisis (M = 6.0 on 12 April, M = 5.1 on 6 May). The distances of the epicentres from the radio receiver...
متن کاملGravitational Lensing as a Probe of Quintessence
A large number of cosmological studies now suggest that roughly two-thirds of the critical energy density of the universe exists in a component with negative pressure. If the equation of state of such an energy component varies with time, it should in principle be possible to identify such a variation using cosmological probes over a wide range in redshift. Proper detection of any time variatio...
متن کاملThe application of a scanning, water Raman-lidar as a probe of the atmospheric boundary layer
A scanning water Raman-lidar has been designed and constructed to study surface-atmosphere processes with high spatial and temporal resolution. Analytical methods are also being developed to analyze the information this lidar can take. The lidar is able to measure the absolute water content and then calculate evaporative fluxes and other atmospheric parameters quickly over relatively large area...
متن کاملGravitational Lensing Statistics as a Probe of Dark Energy
By using the comoving distance, we derive an analytic expression for the optical depth of gravitational lensing, which depends on the redshift to the source and the cosmological model characterized by the cosmic mass density parameter Ωm, the dark energy density parameter Ωx and its equation of state ωx = px/ρx. It is shown that, the larger the dark energy density is and the more negative its p...
