ABSTRACT We have carried out a set of Monte Carlo simulations to study a number of fundamental aspects of the dynamical evolution of multiple stellar populations in globular clusters with different initial masses, fractions of second generation (2G) stars, and structural properties. Our simulations explore and elucidate: (1) the role of early and long-term dynamical processes and stellar escape in the evolution of the fraction of 2G stars and the link between the evolution of the fraction of 2G stars and various dynamical parameters; (2) the link between the fraction of 2G stars inside the cluster and in the population of escaping stars during a cluster’s dynamical evolution; (3) the dynamics of the spatial mixing of the first-generation (1G) and 2G stars and the details of the structural properties of the two populations as they evolve toward mixing; (4) the implications of the initial differences between the spatial distribution of 1G and 2G stars for the evolution of the anisotropy in the velocity distribution and the expected radial profile of the 1G and 2G anisotropy for clusters at different stages of their dynamical history; and (5) the variation of the degree of energy equipartition of the 1G and the 2G populations as a function of the distance from the cluster’s centre and the cluster’s evolutionary phase.

It is very crucial to accurately identify the parameters of contact dynamics in predicting the chatter stability of spindle–tool holder assemblies in machining centers. Fast and accurate identification of contact dynamics in spindle–tool holder assembly has become an important issue in the recent years. In this paper, the receptance coupling substructure approach is employed for identification the stiffness and damping of the interface in a simple manner, in which the frequency response function of the tool holder is derived from the Timoshenko beam finite elements model. A BT 50 type tool holder is adopted as an application example of the method. Although this study focuses on the contact dynamics at the spindle–tool holder interfaces of the assembly, the approach might be used for identifying the dynamical parameters of other critical interface.

Aims. The barycentric dynamics of the Sun has increasingly been attracting the attention of researchers from several fields, due to the idea that interactions between the Sun’s orbital motion and solar internal functioning could be possible. Existing high-precision ephemerides that have been used for that purpose do not include the effects of trans-Neptunian bodies, which cause a significant offset in the definition of the solar system’s barycentre. In addition, the majority of the dynamical parameters of the solar barycentric orbit are not routinely calculated according to these ephemerides or are not publicly available. Methods. We developed a special version of the IAA RAS lunar–solar–planetary ephemerides, EPM2017H, to cover the whole Holocene and 1 kyr into the future. We studied the basic and derived (e.g., orbital torque) barycentric dynamical quantities of the Sun for that time span. A harmonic analysis (which involves an application of VSOP2013 and TOP2013 planetary theories) was performed on these parameters to obtain a physics-based interpretation of the main periodicities present in the solar barycentric movement. Results. We present a high-precision solar barycentric orbit and derived dynamical parameters (using the solar system’s invariable plane as the reference plane), widely accessible for the whole Holocene and 1 kyr in the future. Several particularities and barycentric phenomena are presented and explained on dynamical bases. A comparison with the Jet Propulsion Laboratory DE431 ephemeris, whose main differences arise from the modelling of trans-Neptunian bodies, shows significant discrepancies in several parameters (i.e., not only limited to angular elements) related to the solar barycentric dynamics. In addition, we identify the main periodicities of the Sun’s barycentric movement and the main giant planets perturbations related to them.

Pressure has been used as the principal parameter in calculations of the fundamental vibrational frequencies of spherical drops of radius R , density ρ, and surface tension T carrying a charge Q or uncharged spheroidal drops of axial ratio a / b situated in a uniform electric field of strength E . Freely vibrating charged drops have a frequency f = f 0 ( 1 - Q 2 /16π R 3 T ) ½ , as shown previously by Rayleigh (1882) using energy considerations; f 0 is the vibrational frequency of non-electrified drops (Rayleigh 1879). The fundamental frequency of an uncharged drop in an electric field will decrease with increasing field strength and deformation a / b and will equal zero when E ( R )/ T ) ½ = 1.625 and a / b = 1.86; these critical values correspond to the disintegration conditions derived by Taylor (1964). An interferometric technique involving a laser confirmed the accuracy of the calculations concerned with charged drops. The vibration of water drops of radius around 2 mm was studied over a wide range of temperatures as they fell through electric fields either by suspending them in a vertical wind tunnel or allowing them to fall between a pair of vertical electrodes. Photographic analysis of the vibrations revealed good agreement between theory and experiment over the entire range of conditions studied even though the larger drops were not accurately spheroidal and the amplitude of the vibrations was large.

Multi-cutter turning systems bear huge potential in increasing cutting performance. In this study we show that the stable parameter region can be extended by the optimal tuning of system parameters. The optimal parameter regions can be identified by means of stability charts. Since the stability boundaries are highly sensitive to the dynamical parameters of the machine tool, the reliable exploitation of the so-called stability pockets is limited. Still, the lower envelope of the stability lobes is an appropriate upper boundary function for optimization purposes with an objective function taken for maximal material removal rates. This lower envelope is computed by the Robust Stability Computation method presented in the paper. It is shown in this study, that according to theoretical results obtained for optimally tuned cutters, the safe stable machining parameter region can significantly be extended, which has also been validated by machining tests.

Abstract. Coupled balloon-borne observations of Light Optical Aerosol Counter (LOAC), M10 meteorological global positioning system (GPS) sondes, ozonesondes and GPS radio occultation data, are examined to identify gravity-wave (GW) induced fluctuations on tracer gases and on the vertical distribution of stratospheric aerosol concentrations during the 2013 ChArMEx (Chemistry-Aerosol Mediterranean Experiment) campaign. Observations reveal signatures of GWs with short vertical wavelengths less than 4 km in dynamical parameters and tracer constituents which are also correlated with the presence of thin layers of strong local enhancements of aerosol concentrations in the upper troposphere and the lower stratosphere. In particular, this is evident from a case study above Ile du Levant (43.02 °N, 6.46 °E) on 26–29 July 2013. Observations show a strong activity of dominant mesoscale inertia GWs with horizontal and vertical wavelengths of 370–510 km and 2–3 km respectively, and periods of 10–13 h propagating southward at altitudes of 13–20 km and eastward above 20 km during 27–28 July which is also captured by the European Center for Medium range Weather Forecasting (ECMWF) analyses. Ray-tracing experiments indicate the jet-front system to be the source of observed GWs. Simulated vertical profiles of dynamical parameters with large stratospheric vertical wind maximum oscillations ± 40 mms−1 are produced for the dominant mesoscale GW using the simplified linear GW theory. Parcel advection method reveals signatures of GWs in the ozone mixing ratio and the specific humidity. Simulated vertical wind perturbations of the dominant GW and small-scale perturbations of aerosol concentration (aerosol size of 0.2–0.7 μm) are in phase in the lower stratosphere. Present results support the importance of vertical wind perturbations in the GW-aerosol relation. The observed mesoscale GW induces a strong modulation of the amplitude of tracer gases and the stratospheric aerosol background.

Abstract Interferometry, a key technique in modern precision measurements, has been used for length measurement in engineering metrology and astronomy. An analogous time-domain interferometric technique would represent a significant complement to spatial domain applications and require the manipulation of interference on extreme time and energy scales. Here, we report an all-optical interferometer using laser-driven high order harmonics as attosecond temporal slits. By controlling the phase of the temporal slits with an external field, a time domain interferometer that preserves attosecond temporal and hundreds of meV energy resolution is implemented. We apply this exceptional temporal resolution to reconstruct the waveform of an arbitrarily polarized optical pulse, and utilize the provided energy resolution to interrogate the abnormal character of the transition dipole near the Cooper minimum in argon. This novel attosecond interferometry paves the way for high precision measurements in the time energy domain using all-optical approaches.

Main Influence

White-light interferometric technique has been widely applied in the measurement of three-dimensional profiles and roughness with high-precision. Based on the characteristic of interferometric technique, a new method combined with image location and a three-dimensional stage is proposed to achieve the non-contact absolute shape measurement for aspheric and spherical surface in a slarge range. The interference fringes vary with the horizontal displacement of the measured surface, the surface information was obtained by locating the transformation of the maximal intensity in the interferograms. Two main influence factors are discussed; they are performance of the inerferimetric microscope and the stage. Since the performance of the stage directly determines the measurement precision, a three-dimensional displacement stage with a large range and a high precision was developed. Some experiments were carried out to verify the performance of the three-dimensional displacement stage and the validity of the new measurement method with satisfactory results.
