On joint analysing XMM-NuSTAR spectra of active galactic nuclei

A recently released XMM-Newton note revealed a significant calibration issue between nuclear spectroscopic telescope array(NuSTAR)and XMM-Newton European Photon Imaging Camera(EPIC)and provided an empirical correction to the EPIC effective area.To quantify the bias caused by the calibration issue in the joint analysis of XMM-NuSTAR spectra and verify the effectiveness of the correction,in this work,we perform joint-fitting of the NuSTAR and EPIC-pn spectra for a large sample of 104 observation pairs of 44 X-ray bright active galactic nuclei(AGN).The spectra were extracted after requiring perfect simultaneity between the XMM-Newton and NuSTAR exposures(merging good time intervals(GTIs)from two missions)to avoid bias due to the rapid spectral variability of the AGN.Before the correction,the EPIC-pn spectra are systematically harder than the corresponding NuSTAR spectra by■subsequently yielding significantly underestimated cutoff energy E_(cut)and the strength of reflection component R when performing joint-fitting.We confirm that the correction is highly effective and can commendably erase the discrepancy in best-fitΓ,E_(cut),and R.We thus urge the community to apply the correction when joint-fitting XMM-NuSTAR spectra,but note that the correction is limited to 3–12 keV and therefore not applicable when the soft X-ray band data are included.Besides,we show that as merging GTIs from two missions would cause severe loss of NuSTAR net exposure time,in many cases,joint-fitting yields no advantage compared with utilizing NuSTAR data alone.Finally,We present a technical note on filtering periods of high background flares for XMM-Newton EPIC-pn exposures in the small window(SW)mode.

Design of Central Management & Control Unit for Onboard High-Speed Data Handling System

The Main Optical Telescope (MOT) is an important payload of the Space Solar Telescope (SST) with various instruments and observation modes. Its real-time data handling and management and control tasks are arduous. Based on the advanced techniques of foreign countries, an improved structure of onboard data handling systems feasible for SST, is proposed. This article concentrated on the development of a Central Management & Control Unit (MCU) based on FPGA and DSP. Through reconfigurating the FPGA and DSP programs, the prototype could perform different tasks. Thus the inheritability of the whole system is improved. The completed dual-channel prototype proves that the system meets all requirements of the MOT. Its high reliability and safety features also meet the requirements under harsh conditions such as mine detection.

Measurement System of Uniformity between Breech Horizontal Platform and Datum Tube Axis of Rocket Artillery

The purpose of this development is to detect the parallelism between the breech horizontal platform and the datum tube axis of the rocket artillery. The located aiming mechanism at the muzzle and located adjustment mechanism at the breech are designed in the system. Besides those, the system also uses an autocollimator with accuracy of 1″ and a collimating mirror together to determine the axis of the datum tube. An electronic level with accuracy of 2″ is employed to measure and display the value of the included angle and the parameter of the inclined direction. The entire accuracy of this system is σ≤±9.1″. This paper describes the composition and the operating principle of the system and analyzes the accuracy. The development of this system supplies reliable measurement method for new rocket artilleries and artilleries, and this technology is of a good application prospect.

Error analysis and distribution of the driving mechanism for large spherical radio telescope active reflector

In order to reduce the cost,3-PRS mechanism is introduced into the application of supporting theactive reflector unit of large radio telescope.The kinematic model of 3-PRS mechanism with rotationaljoint errors is derived to solve the error problem in actual engineering application.Then based on the errormodel,inverse and forward kinematics are analyzed.Because the solutions can not be analytically ex-pressed,a numerical method is applied.Afterwards,the parasitic motion errors are analyzed using searchmethod and empirical formulas of the maximum parasitic motion error are put forward.Finally,the toler-ance is distributed using empirical formulas to avoid interference between adjacent reflector units.Theanalyses provide a theoretical basis for the design and installation of large radio telescope active reflector.

Permian sequence stratigraphy of shallow water basin in Tarim Basin

Based on analysis of drilling, logging and field profile data, six sequence boundaries in Permian are identified in Bachu and Tazhong regions of Tarim Basin. All sequence boundaries are of type I sequence bound- aries, and are characterized by down cut. According to the six sequence boundaries, the Permian in this area can be divided into 5 third-order sequences, and all the sequences correspond with classic sequence model of Vail. Sequence Psq4 indicates lake transgressive system tract （TST） and highstand system tract （HST）. Se- quences Psql, Psq2, Psq3, Psq5 indicate low stand system tract （ LST）, transgressive system tract and high- stand system tract. LST is deposited by incised channel infilling with features of fluvial facies. TST is deposited by shore-shallow lake and semi-deep lake. HST is deposited by semi-deep lake, shore-shallow lake and delta. In addition, volcanic rocks are present on the top part of HST in sequence Psq3. Incised channel infilling and deltaic deposits were mainly distributed on western slope of Tadong uplift.

Digitalized Mirror Array and Its Application in Large Telescope:Principle and Case Studies

In this article, we report the principle and conceptual design of a fundamentally different technology in fabricating high precision aberration free optical devices. The tip-tilt of facet in a mirror array is produced by digitally controlled line-tilts of rows and columns. It has not only provided a cost-effective designing methodology in optical physics but also led to a much finer precision of 1 mili arc sec or less. As examples of the application of the proposed digitalised optics, two case studies have been given： a 10 m Schmidt telescope （off-axis） and an 8 m Cassegrain telescope （on-axis）.

The optoelectronic telescope has two sets of control systems: azimuth one and elevation one, and both are driven by PWM power amplifier with high efficiency and wide speed regulation range. The diagram of the azimuth control system is demonstrated, the nonlinear factors is analyzed at low speed, and some related experiments are carried out. The results show that the positioning error with unipolar is 86 codes(106.21″), while 18 codes (22.23″) is with bipolar PWM driver.

Anisotropic Bianchi Type-I Magnetized String Cosmological Models with Decaying Vacuum Energy Density A(t)

The present study deals with a spatially homogeneous and anisotropic Bianehi-I cosmological models representing massive strings with magnetic field and decaying vacuum energy density A. The energy-momentum tensor, as formulated by Letelier （1983）, has been used to construct massive string cosmological models for which we assume the expansion scalar in the models is proportional to one of the components of shear tensor. The Einstein＇s field equations have been solved by applying a variation law for generalized Hubble＇s parameter in Bianchi-I space-time. The variation law for Hubble＇s parameter generates two types of solutions for the average scale factor, one is of power-law type and other is of the exponential form. Using these two forms, Einstein＇s field equations are solved separately that correspond to expanding singular and non-singular models of the universe respectively. We have made a comparative study of accelerating and decelerating models in the presence of string scenario. The study reveals that massive strings dominate in the decelerating universe whereas strings dominate in the accelerating universe. The strings eventually disappear from the universe for sufficiently large times, which is in agreement with current astronomical observations. The cosmological constant A is found to be a positive decreasing function of time which is corroborated by results from recent supernovae Ia observations. The physical and geometric properties of the models have been also discussed in detail.

Remote sensing image compression for deep space based on region of interest

A major limitation for deep space communication is the limited bandwidths available. The downlinkrate using X-band with an L2 halo orbit is estimated to be of only 5.35 GB/d. However, the Next GenerationSpace Telescope (NGST) will produce about 600 GB/d. Clearly the volume of data to downlink must be re-duced by at least a factor of 100. One of the resolutions is to encode the data using very low bit rate image com-pression techniques. An very low bit rate image compression method based on region of interest(ROI) has beenproposed for deep space image. The conventional image compression algorithms which encode the original datawithout any data analysis can maintain very good details and haven' t high compression rate while the modernimage compressions with semantic organization can have high compression rate even to be hundred and can' tmaintain too much details. The algorithms based on region of interest inheriting from the two previews algorithmshave good semantic features and high fidelity, and is therefore suitable for applications at a low bit rate. Theproposed method extracts the region of interest by texture analysis after wavelet transform and gains optimal localquality with bit rate control. The Result shows that our method can maintain more details in ROI than generalimage compression algorithm(SPIHT) under the condition of sacrificing the quality of other uninterested areas.

EFFECT OF FEED ARRAY CONFIGURATION ON THE FIELD-OF-VIEW OF RADIO TELESCOPE ANTENNA

Phased Array Feed (PAF) is a small two-dimensional phased array antenna, playing a role as the multi-beam feed for the reflector antenna. The prominent capability of large continuous Field-of-View (FoV) coverage and fast survey speed makes PAF the promising feed for radio telescopes. In this paper, the effect of feed array of PAF on the gain fluctuations over FoV is analyzed on a sim- plified model of the Five-hundred-meter Spherical Aperture radio Telescope (FAST), including illu- mination pattern edge taper, element spacing, element arrangement and element amount. And the differences between rectangular and hexagonal array arrangements are compared. The relationship between the FoV and array configuration are concluded at last.

Evaluation of cable tension sensors of FAST reflector from the perspective of EMI

The active reflector of FAST （ five-hundred-meter aperture spherical radio telescope） is suppor- ted by a ring beam and a cable-net structure, in which nodes are actively controlled to form series of real-time paraboloids. To ensure the security and stability of the supporting structure, tension must be monitored for some typical cables. Considering the stringent requirements in accuracy and long- term stability, magnetic flux sensor, vibrating wire strain gauge and fiber bragg grating strain gauge are screened for the cable tension monitoring of the supporting cable-net. Specifically, receivers of radio telescopes have strict restriction on electro magnetic interference （EMI） or radio frequency in- terference （RFI）. These three types of sensors are evaluated from the view of EMIfRFI. Firstly, these fundamentals are theoretically analyzed. Secondly, typical sensor signals are collected in the time and analyzed in the frequency domain, which shows the characteristic in the frequency domain. Finally, typical sensors are tested in an anechoic chamber to get the EMI levels. Theoretical analysis shows that Fiber Bragg Grating strain gauge itself will not lead to EMI/RFI. According to GJB151 A, frequency domain analysis and test results show that for the vibrating wire strain gauge and magnetic flux sensor themselves, testable EMIfRF1 levels are typically below the background noise of the ane- choic chamber. FAST finally choses these three sensors as the monitoring sensors of its cable ten- sion. The proposed study is also a reference to the monitoring equipment selection of other radio tele- scopes and large structures.

Optimization Design for Digital Binoculars

In order to develop competitive and high performance/cost ratio of digital binoculars, design scheme should be optimized in term of technical capacity, economic benefit, product performance, risk management, etc. The common optimization method is limited in qualitative analysis, and the parameter optimization method is limited in obtaining optimal parameter only from technical side. Each method has its limitation. Based on the analysis of digital binoculars parameters, optional design schemes are laid down. Analytic hierarchy process combined the qualitative analysis with the quantitative analysis together. The design schemes are optimized, and resuh is worked out.

Study and application of vibrating wire strain gauge in monitoring cable tension of FAST cable-net

A cable net structure is selected to support its reflecting triangular aluminum panels of FAST(five-hundred-meter aperture spherical radio telescope).To ensure the security and stability of the supporting structure,cable force of typical cables must be monitored on line.Considering the stringent requirements in installation,accuracy,long-term stability and EMI(Electromagnetic interference),most of the commonly used cable force measurement methods or sensors are not suitable for the cable force monitoring of the supporting cable-net of FAST.A method is presents to accomplish the cable force monitoring,which uses a vibrating wire strain gauge to monitor the strain of linear strain area at the anchor head.Experiments have been carried out to verify the feasibility.The method has a series of advantages,such as high reliability,high accuracy,good dynamic performance and durability,easiness of maintenance,technical maturity in industry and EMI shielding.Theoretical analysis shows that there is a linear relationship between the cable body force and anchor head surface strain,and experimental results proves a good linear relationship with excellent repeatability between the cable body force and anchor head surface strain measured by the vibrating wire strain gauge,with a linear fit better than 0.98.Mean square error in practical measuring is 2.5t.The relative error is better than 4%within the scope of the cable force in FAST operation which meets practical demand in FAST engineering.

Hybrid position/force control strategy and experiment of the six-cable driven parallel manipulator for the forty-meter aperture radio telescope

This paper mainly analyzes a hybrid position/force control strategy and experiment of a six-cable driven parallel manipulator for a forty-meter aperture radio telescope. Through the establishments of a kinematic model, a catenary model and a cable-force characteristics model, a basic method is presented based on preventing the pseudo-drag problem of a flexible cable and realizing the hybrid position/force control for a six-cable driven parallel manipulator, and a hybrid position/force control system is developed. Some specific experiments in two typical velocities for astronomical observations are carried out. Experimental results show that the tracking accuracy is related to the speed of the movement. The desired tracking accuracy of the support system is achieved through an effective hybrid position/force control strategy, the cable forces are controlled effectively, and the pseudo-drag problem of flexible cable is solved. This study establishes the foundation of achieving the harmonious movement of the six-cable driven parallel manipulator, A-B rotating platform and the Stewart fine tuninz olatform.

ManUfaCturing,Testing and Alignment of Sentinel-2MSl Telescope Mirrors

The ESA Sentinel-2 mission developed by European Aeronautic Defense and Space Compagny （EADS） Astrium will be devoted to Earth high resolution spectral imagery for the purpose of a global environmental monitoring. As a subcontractor of EADS Astrium, AMOS was responsible for the manufacturing of the instrument telescope mirrors and for the validation of the telescope alignment procedure. This paper details the mirror manufacturing sequences from mirror CVD-SiC cladding to surface figuring and coating, outlining the metrology steps and their corresponding accuracy budget. The telescope alignment process is described in connection with the tooling and techniques that helped achieve the required optical performance of less than 90 nm RMS wavefront error within the telescope field of view.Pierre Gloesenet

Reconstructing Zagwe Civilization

The Zagwe period is believed to be the richest and most artistic period of Ethiopian civilization since the conversion of Ezana though its achievements have been virtually consigned to obscurity. One of the ideological weapons which aggravated this obscurity is arguably the deep-rooted allegiance of the Kebra Nagest to the Solomonic dynasty. Contemporary researchers on Kebra Nagest seem to have underestimated the ideological onslaught of the Kebra Nagest on the Zagwe period that their contributions to the medieval Ethiopian civilization have been virtually shrouded in mystery. Thus, expatriate and compatriot authorities on the medieval Ethiopian cultural history are called upon to revisit the impacts oftbe Kob~ NSg^gt on the Zagwe period from the other end of the telescope, thereby, to reconstruct the unsung achievements of Ag^w civilization.

Imaging through Atmospheric Turbulence Using Kolmogorov and Gaussian Statistics

Computer simulations were carried out to investigate the limitations imposed by Gaussian and Kolmogorov atmospheric turbulence on observing astronomical objects via ground based optical telescopes. These limitations were studied in terms of the point spread function of a reference star and the autocorrelation function of a binary star. Quantitative comparative assessments demonstrate the superiority of Kolmogorov approach.

This paper presents the design and implementation of the embedded microcontrollers within a telescope control system. The design objectives of the overall system are to automatically find light emitting objects at night within a user specified area, to track a light emitting object for a user specified time given the initial position of the object, and to allow the user access to these functions through a graphical user interface. The embedded system is used to provide a communication link between the graphical user interface and system hardware, to provide angle data processing for a dual axis accelerometer, to provide data processing for an electronic compass, and to provide pulse outputs for the step and direction inputs of three stepper motor drives. This paper will describe the design, implementation, and results of each of these objectives.
