Title:シアがある系の乱流輸送実験研究ートーラスプラズマと電気対流乱流からの話題提供-
Abstract:乱流輸送は自然界に普遍的にみられる現象であるが、その統計的性質は複雑を極め、いくつかの例外を除いて普遍的性質を見いだせていない。磁場閉じ込め核融合プラズマを目指す研究では、乱流中にゾーナルフローと呼ばれるメソスケール構造が自発的に形成され、乱流輸送を大きく制限し、系のダイナミクスにも影響することがわかってきた。最近、我々はこの非線形過程に支配されるゾーナルフローを外部から制御することに挑戦し、磁場の測地曲率により乱流輸送を制御できることを示した。この実験について紹介し、乱流とシアの関係について、議論する。もう一つは、電気対流乱流を用いた実験では、平行平板間を流れる液晶の乱流実験を紹介する。流れを駆動することは、エネルギー注入スケールのシアを系に導入することになるため、その影響を調べることができる。シアによる乱対流の非対称化と乱流による乱流の等方化の競合状態で、双山の速度分布関数のが見つかった。現象論的なモデルにより、乱流、対流、シアの競合状態の結果として、双山の速度分布関数を再現できた。速度分布関数の計測から系の競合状態の診断可能性を指摘した。時間が許せば、対流不安定、対流安定境界に観測される特徴的な輸送現象についても紹介する。

タイトル:2017年 京都火球と潜在的に危険な地球接近二重小惑星 2003 YT1
Abstract:We present a fireball detected in the night sky over Kyoto,
Japan on UT 2017 April 28 at 15h 58m 19s by the SonotaCo Network. The
absolute visual magnitude is Mv=−4.10±0.42mag. Luminous light curves
obtain a meteoroid mass m=29±1g, corresponding to the size
a_s=2.7±0.1cm. Orbital similarity assessed by D-criterions (cf.
D_SH=0.0079) has identified a likely parent, the binary near-Earth
asteroid (164121) 2003 YT1. The suggested binary formation process is
a YORP-driven rotational disintegration. The asynchronous state
indicates the age of < 1e4yr, near or shorter than the upper limit to
meteoroid stream lifetime. We examine potential dust production
mechanisms for the asteroid, including rotational instability,
resurfacing, impact, photoionization, radiation pressure sweeping,
thermal fracture and sublimation of ice. We find some of them capable of
producing the meteoroid-scale particles. Rotational instability is
presumed to cause mass shedding, in consideration of the recent
precedents, possibly releasing mm-cm scale dust particles. Impacts by
micrometeorites with size≃1mm could be a trigger for ejecting the
cm-sized particles. Radiation pressure can sweep out the mm-sized dust
particles, while not sufficient for the cm-sized. For the other
mechanisms, unprovable or unidentified. The feasibility in the parental
aspect of 2003 YT1 is somewhat reconciled with the fireball observation,
yielding an insight into how we approach potentially hazardous objects.

Title:Magnetic Field Reversal around
an Active Fast RadioBurst
Abstract:The environment of actively repeating fast radio bursts (FRBs) has been shown to be complex and varying. The recently localized FRB 20190520B is extremely active, has the largest confirmed host dispersion measure (DM), and is only the second FRB source associated with a compact, persistent radio source (PRS). The main tracer of the magneto-ionic environments is the rotation measure (RM), a path-integral of the line-of-sight component of magnetic field strength (B) and electron density, which does not allow a direct probe of the B-field configuration. Here we report direct evidence for a B-field reversal based on the observed sign change and extreme variation of FRB 20190520B’s RM, which changed from +10000 rad/m^2 to -16000 rad/m^2 between June 2021 and January 2022. Such extreme RM reversal has never been observed before in any FRB nor in any astronomical object. The implied short-term change of the B-field configuration in or around the FRB could be due to the vicinity of massive black holes, a magnetized companion star in binary systems, or a young supernova remnant along the line of sight.

Title: An ALMA Systematic Survey of Distant Galaxies: Obscured Star Formation at z~7
Abstract:
In recent years, many massive galaxies have been discovered when the Universe was only 1Gyr old or younger. This raises the question of how so much mass was assembled in such a short time. In particular, some of these galaxies are dust rich, suggesting that dust is also being produced in a rapid manner in the early universe. Taking advantage of ALMA’s capability of efficient spectroscopic searches for galaxies at z > 6.5, we have conducted an ALMA Cycle-7 Large Program, REBELS (Reionization Era Bright Emission Line Survey) to perform a systematic study of the interstellar medium (ISM) in 40 UV-selected galaxies at z > 6.5. The design of this survey has allowed us to spectroscopically confirm 23 galaxies in the Epoch of Reionization, as well as detect dust continuum in 14 galaxies, increasing the number of known dusty galaxies at z > 6.5 by a factor of three. In this talk, we will first present an outline of the REBELS program and then focus on discussing recent results from the dust continuum detections. We will present 1) the typical fraction of obscured star formation in UV-selected galaxies at z~7, and 2) new constraints on the dust-obscured cosmic star formation rate density in the epoch of reionization. In addition, we have conducted follow-up observations with ALMA to cover shorter wavelengths in several REBELS galaxies. We will present recent results on the shape of the infrared spectral energy distribution in three z~7 galaxies, and discuss their dust temperatures, masses and ISM properties in the context of the known high-redshift population.

Title:Imaging Black Holes with the Event Horizon Telescope
Abstract:The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) is a global submillimeter-wavelength very long baseline array that produces the highest angular resolution images of black holes. The EHT Collaboration has produced images of two black holes, the supermassive black hole in the elliptical galaxy M87 and the Galactic Center black hole, SgrA*. In this talk, I will describe the techniques and technology behind these measurements. Both images have a ring-like morphology consistent with predictions of general relativity and the Kerr metric. Comparison with an unprecedented library of GRMHD simulations provides insights on the accretion and outflow properties. These results confirm that the gravitational lensing feature is a universal property of black holes, establishes the consistency of general relativity over three orders of magnitude in mass, and opens the door for future tests of gravitational physics, accretion, and jet formation.

タイトル:Consideration of Phaethon
Abstract:Phaethon, the target asteroid of the DESTINY+ mission, has
shown various interesting aspects (dust ejections near perihelion,
moderately-high albedo, extremely high polarization and its
inhomogeneity, presence of Geminids meteor shower, etc.). In this talk,
I will discuss the phenomena that might have occurred at Phaethon within
the past 10,000 years based on research conducted with my graduate
students at Seoul National University.

Title: ALMA fragmented source and outflow identifications in OMC-2/FIR 3, FIR 4, and FIR 5
Abstract:
The Orion Molecular Cloud 2 (OMC-2) in the northern part of Orion A (d = 400 pc) is known as an embedded protocluster containing a large number of infrared sources (400 pc^{-2}; Lada & Lada 2003). In the OMC-2, fifteen young sources are clustering within three millimeter sources, FIR 3, FIR 4, and FIR 5 (Chini et al. 1997, Farlan et al. 2016). This talk will introduce the results and discussions presented by Sato et al. (2023). Using the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA), we performed mosaic observations toward FIR3, FIR4, and FIR5, covering an area of 0.35 pc x 0.23 pc (~2’.9 × 1’.9), in the 1.3 mm continuum, CO (J = 2–1) line, and SiO (J = 5–4) line emissions. We identified 51 continuum sources, 36 of which are newly identified in Sato et al. (2023). Their dust masses, projected sizes, and H2 gas number densities are estimated to be 3.8 × 10^{-5} — 1.1 × 10^{-2} Msun, 290 — 2000 au, and 6.4 × 10^6 — 3.3 × 10^8 cm^{-3}, respectively. The results of a Jeans analysis showed that, among the identified continuum sources, ~80% of the protostellar sources and ~15% of the prestellar sources are self-gravitationally bound. We identified 12 molecular outflows traced in the CO (J = 2–1) emission, six of which are newly detected. We identified shocked gas originating from outflows and other shocked regions traced by the SiO (J = 5–4) emission in this region. These results provide direct evidence of an interaction between a dust condensation, FIR 4, and an energetic outflow driven by HOPS-370 within FIR 3. In this talk, I discuss how identified molecular outflows interact with other cluster members, and how the interaction might affect the star formation within the embedded cluster by timescale comparison.

Title:Dense Cores Embedded in 70µm-dark High-mass Clumps: CMF and Fragmentation
Abstract:The very early evolutionary stage of high-mass star and cluster formation is a key phase for understanding how the progenitors of stars form and evolve. We have conducted the ALMA Survey of 70 µm Dark High-mass Clumps in Early Stages (ASHES) toward thirty-nine cold regions with massive, dense molecular gas, which are thought to be the ideal sites to investigate the early phase of high-mass star formation. The high-resolution (~1.”2) and high-sensitivity observations mosaicked by ALMA succeed in revealing the internal structure of infrared-dark clouds and the unprecedented amount of 839 cores. This is the largest sample of cores in IRDCs observed with ALMA so far. In this talk, I will present prestellar core mass function (CMF) with the comparison with protostellar CMF and Salpeter’s IMF, and the fragmentation properties compared with Jeans fragmentation.
