佩里顿的签名球闪电?
Are perytons signatures of ball lightning?
摘要:
射电望远镜在GHz频率范围内探测到的神秘的下啁啾信号,称为“佩里顿”,可能是由一种称为球形闪电(BL)的大气现象产生的。如果BLs作为非稳态射频腔,其特征发射频率和演化时间尺度与佩里顿观测一致,因此是BLs已知发生的一般模式。基于这些证据,可以进行可检验的预测,可以确认或排除perytons和BL之间的因果关系。在这两种情况下,如何在观测数据中搜索peryton可能需要重新考虑,因为现有的程序可能会丢弃与已知peryton具有相同性质的事件。
英文摘要:
The enigmatic downchirped signals, called "perytons", that are detected by radio telescopes in the GHz frequency range may be produced by an atmospheric phenomenon known as ball lightning (BL). If BLs act as nonstationary radiofrequency cavities, their characteristic emission frequencies and evolution time scales are consistent with peryton observations, and so are general patterns in which BLs are known to occur. Based on this evidence, testable predictions are made that can confirm or rule out a causal connection between perytons and BLs. In either case, how perytons are searched for in observational data may warrant reconsideration, for existing procedures may be discarding events that has the same nature as known perytons.
