Lyne & Lorimer (1994) argue that the velocities of young pulsars are much higher than was previously thought. However, recent radio pulsar population synthesis work by Hartman et al. (1996, these proceedings) shows that simulations that use a birth velocity distribution with more pulsars at low velocities, Phinney’s modification of the Paczyński (1990) distributiondescribes the observed magnetic field, period and luminosity distribution equally well as simulations that use the Lyne & Lorimer distribution.We use this radio pulsar population synthesis model to obtain the proper motion distribution of the simulated sample, and from that we calculate the transverse velocity distribution to compare it with the observed transverse velocity distribution. A full report of this work will be given in Hartman (1996).

In the present work, results of electrohydrodynamic (EHD) flow field in a wire-plate air-oil droplets electrostatic separator under positive polarity are presented. Using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV), the structure of EHD flow under fully developed primary laminar gas flow is investigated and corresponding flow patterns are studied. Velocity distribution results show that the transverse velocity induced by EHD flow depends significantly on applied voltage and the cross-section plane position of the separator. Detailed transverse velocity distribution profiles under different ratio between electrostatic force and inertial force of droplets (Ehd/Re2) are presented. Oscillating jets are observed under a relatively low Ehd/Re2 ∼ 4 and counter rotating vortices around the wire for large Ehd/Re2 > 90 are characterized in this experiment. Contrary to EHD flow patterns for fine solid particles, no von Karman vortex was observed downstream of the charged electrode wire.

We report on first measurements towards an Ives–Stilwell test of time dilation at velocities around 0.3c. In Ives–Stilwell type experiments, fast atomic ions containing a well-known transition are used as moving clocks, and time dilation as well as the velocity can be derived from the simultaneous laser-spectroscopic measurements of the Doppler shifts with and against the direction of motion. To accurately measure these Doppler shifts, the Doppler broadening caused by the ions velocity distribution needs to be overcome. We performed first feasibility studies for laser spectroscopy on 7Li+ ions in the 2s3S21 metastable ground state at the Gesellschaft für Schwerinonenforschung (GSI) in Darmstadt. The ions were stored in the Experimental Storage Ring (ESR) at a velocity of 0.338c, and optical–optical double-resonance spectroscopy on a closed Λ-type three level system was performed with two lasers propagating antiparallel to the ions motion. We found that Doppler shift measurements on a narrow subclass of the ions velocity distribution with sufficient signal-to-noise ratio are possible if the ion beam is electron-cooled and bunched. Together with the control of systematic error sources developed in our previous experiments on slower beams, the ESR experiment promises an improvement of previously achieved sensitivities to time dilation by about an order of magnitude.
