... Solar flare activity is produced by the processes of accumulation and release of energy in an active region. ... In the framework of study of solar active regions, producing powerful flares the researchers from the RATAN-600 radio telescope have detected sources with features in the form of a sharp drop in the intensity of polarized radiation in various parts of the recorded frequency range (2-16GHz), sometimes changing the sign of polarization. ...

Most current theories for magnetospheric emission can be grouped into polar cap, outer gap, and nebular models. These models, at least in some cases, need not be mutually exclusive; the Crab pulsar (among others), for example, shows clear evidence for pulsed emission from the magnetosphere and unpulsed emission from the surrounding nebula. ... This suggestion is strengthened by observation of a distinct soft emission component, consistent with the cooling scenario, from several of these pulsars. ...

Abstract -- Calculations are performed for the circular polarization of maser radiation from a turbulent, Keplerian disk that is intended to represent the sub-parsec disk at the nucleus of the galaxy NGC4258. ... This turbulence, along with the Keplerian velocity gradients and the blending of the three hyperfine components to form the 6 16 --5 32 masing transition of water, are key ingredients in determining the appearance of the polarized spectra that are calculated. ...

Context. Thermal emission by stochastically heated dust grains (SHGs) plays an important role in the radiative transfer (RT) problem for a dusty medium. ... Aims: We define an appropriate problem for benchmarking dust emissivity calculations in the context of RT simulations, specifically including the emission from SHGs. ... It also includes a series of analytically defined radiation fields to which the dust population is to be exposed and instructions for the desired output. ...

The Arcetri Spectral Code (Landi and Landini 2002) allows to evaluate the spectrum of continuum and line radiation emitted by hot and optically thin plasmas in the spectral range 1-2000 Angstrom. The Code is composed by a large database of atomic data and transition probabilities for calculating spectral line emissivities and a suite of fortran programs able to evaluate free-free, free-bound and two-photon continuum radiation. ...

The trapping of particles by magnetic fields was first studied by Kristian Birkeland in Norway, starting around 1895. ... Poincare managed to solve the motion of charged particles near an isolated magnetic pole, showing that they spiraled around field lines and that they were repelled from regions of strong field. ... A more realistic problem, of more interest to Birkeland, was particle motion near a compact bar magnet or "dipole", which better approximated the field of the Earth or of his terrella. ...

An active region model was built, based on the rotation of the UCD and the ECMI mechanism. ... The active region model is applied to the radio emission from TVLM 513-46546, in which the ECMI mechanism is responsible for the radio bursts from the magnetic tubes and the rotation of the dwarf can modulate the integral of flux with respect to time. ...

... Trapped Motion . ... The trapping of particles by magnetic fields was first studied by Kristian Birkeland in Norway, starting around 1895. ... Perhaps the most interesting story of that era concerns Nicholas Christofilos , a Greek elevator engineer whose avocation was the study of particle motion in magnetic fields. ... Atomic bombs produce large numbers of energetic electrons, and Christofilos hoped that such electrons would become trapped in the magnetic field as an artificial radiation belt. ...
