| 1 | The Qitai radio telescope显示文摘This study presents a general outline of the Qitai radio telescope(QTT)project.Qitai,the site of the telescope,is a county of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China,located in the east Tianshan Mountains at an elevation of about 1800 m.The QTT is a fully steerable,Gregorian-type telescope with a standard parabolic main reflector of 110 m diameter.The QTT has adopted an umbrella support,homology-symmetric lightweight design.The main reflector is active so that the deformation caused by gravity can be corrected.The structural design aims to ultimately allow high-sensitivity observations from 150 MHz up to115 GHz.To satisfy the requirements for early scientific goals,the QTTwill be equipped with ultra-wideband receivers and large field-of-view multi-beam receivers.A multi-function signal-processing system based on RFSo C and GPU processor chips will be developed.These will enable the QTT to operate in pulsar,spectral line,continuum and Very Long Baseline Interferometer(VLBI)observing modes.Electromagnetic compatibility(EMC)and radio frequency interference(RFI)control techniques are adopted throughout the system design.The QTT will form a world-class observational platform for the detection of lowfrequency(nano Hertz)gravitational waves through pulsar timing array(PTA)techniques,pulsar surveys,the discovery of binary black-hole systems,and exploring dark matter and the origin of life in the universe.The QTT will also play an important role in improving the Chinese and international VLBI networks,allowing high-sensitivity and high-resolution observations of the nuclei of distant galaxies and gravitational lensing systems.Deep astrometric observations will also contribute to improving the accuracy of the celestial reference frame.Potentially,the QTT will be able to support future space activities such as planetary exploration in the solar system and to contribute to the search for extraterrestrial intelligence. | Na Wang Qian Xu Jun Ma Zhiyong Liu Qi Liu Hailong Zhang Xin Pei Maozheng Chen Richard N.Manchester Kejia Lee Xingwu Zheng Hans J.Kärcher Wulin Zhao Hongwei Li Dongwei Li Martin Süss Matthias Reichert Zhongyi Zhu Congsi Wang Mingshuai Li Rui Li Ning Li Guljaina Kazezkhan Wenming Yan Gang Wu Lang Cui Ming Zhang Haitao Li | 2023 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2023，66，8： | 14 |
| 2 | Searching for the Nano-Hertz Stochastic Gravitational Wave Background with the Chinese Pulsar Timing Array Data ReleaseⅠ显示文摘Observing and timing a group of millisecond pulsars with high rotational stability enables the direct detection of gravitational waves(GWs).The GW signals can be identified from the spatial correlations encoded in the times-of-arrival of widely spaced pulsar-pairs.The Chinese Pulsar Timing Array(CPTA)is a collaboration aiming at the direct GW detection with observations carried out using Chinese radio telescopes.This short article serves as a“table of contents”for a forthcoming series of papers related to the CPTA Data Release 1(CPTA DR1)which uses observations from the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope.Here,after summarizing the time span and accuracy of CPTA DR1,we report the key results of our statistical inference finding a correlated signal with amplitude logA_(c)=-14.4_(-2.8)^(+1.0)for spectral index in the range ofα∈[-1.8,1.5]assuming a GW background(GWB)induced quadrupolar correlation.The search for the Hellings–Downs(HD)correlation curve is also presented,where some evidence for the HD correlation has been found that a 4.6σstatistical significance is achieved using the discrete frequency method around the frequency of 14 n Hz.We expect that the future International Pulsar Timing Array data analysis and the next CPTA data release will be more sensitive to the n Hz GWB,which could verify the current results. | Heng Xu Siyuan Chen Yanjun Guo Jinchen Jiang Bojun Wang Jiangwei Xu Zihan Xue RNicolas Caballero Jianping Yuan Yonghua Xu Jingbo Wang Longfei Hao Jingtao Luo Kejia Lee Jinlin Han Peng Jiang Zhiqiang Shen Min Wang Na Wang Renxin Xu Xiangping Wu Richard Manchester Lei Qian Xin Guan Menglin Huang Chun Sun Yan Zhu | 2023 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2023，23，7： | 3 |
| 3 | The Gravitational-wave physics Ⅱ: Progress显示文摘It has been a half-decade since the first direct detection of gravitational waves, which signifies the coming of the era of the gravitational-wave astronomy and gravitational-wave cosmology. The increasing number of the detected gravitational-wave events has revealed the promising capability of constraining various aspects of cosmology, astronomy, and gravity. Due to the limited space in this review article, we will briefly summarize the recent progress over the past five years, but with a special focus on some of our own work for the Key Project 'Physics associated with the gravitational waves' supported by the National Natural Science Foundation of China. In particular,(1) we have presented the mechanism of the gravitational-wave production during some physical processes of the early Universe, such as inflation, preheating and phase transition, and the cosmological implications of gravitational-wave measurements;(2) we have put constraints on the neutron star maximum mass according to GW170817 observations;(3) we have developed a numerical relativity algorithm based on the finite element method and a waveform model for the binary black hole coalescence along an eccentric orbit. | Ligong Bian Rong-Gen Cai Shuo Cao Zhoujian Cao He Gao Zong-Kuan Guo Kejia Lee Di Li Jing Liu Youjun Lu Shi Pi Jian-Min Wang Shao-Jiang Wang Yan Wang Tao Yang Xing-Yu Yang Shenghua Yu Xin Zhang | 2021 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2021，64，12： | 2 |
| 4 | Measuring clock jumps using pulsar timing显示文摘In this paper,we investigate the statistical signal-processing algorithm to measure the instant local clock jump from the timing data of multiple pulsars.Our algorithm is based on the framework of Bayesian statistics.In order to make the Bayesian algorithm applicable with limited computational resources,we dedicated our efforts to the analytic marginalization of irrelevant parameters.We found that the widely used parameter for pulsar timing systematics,the'Efac'parameter,can be analytically marginalized.This reduces the Gaussian likelihood to a function very similar to the Student’s t-distribution.Our iterative method to solve the maximum likelihood estimator is also explained in the paper.Using pulsar timing data from the Yunnan Kunming 40-m radio telescope,we demonstrate the application of the method,where 80-ns level precision for the clock jump can be achieved.Such a precision is comparable to that of current commercial time transferring service using satellites.We expect that the current method could help developing the autonomous pulsar time scale. | ZhiXuan Li KeJia Lee Ricardo Nicolaos Caballero YongHua Xu LongFei Hao Min Wang JianCheng Wang | 2020 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2020，63，1： | 1 |
| 5 | Repeating fast radio bursts: Coherent circular polarization by bunches显示文摘Fast radio bursts(FRBs) are millisecond-duration signals that are highly dispersed at distant galaxies. However, the physical origin of FRBs is still unknown. Coherent curvature emission by bunches, e.g., powered by starquakes, has already been proposed for repeating FRBs. It has the nature of understanding narrowband radiation exhibiting time-frequency drifting. Recently, a highly active FRB source, i.e., FRB 20201124A, was reported to enter a newly active episode and emit at least some highly circular-polarized bursts. In this study, we revisit the polarized FRB emission, particularly investigating the production mechanisms of a highly circular polarization(CP) by deriving the intrinsic mechanism and propagative effect. The intrinsic mechanisms of invoking charged bunches are approached with radiative coherence. Consequently, a highly CP could naturally be explained by the coherent summation of outcome waves, generated or scattered by bunches, with different phases and electric vectors. Different kinds of evolutionary trajectories are found on the Poincaré sphere for the bunch-coherent polarization, and this behavior could be tested through future observations. Cyclotron resonance can result in the absorption of R-mode photons at a low altitude region of the magnetosphere, and an FRB should then be emitted from a high-altitude region if the waves have strong linear polarization. Circularly polarized components could be produced from Faraday conversion exhibiting a λ-oscillation, but the average CP fraction depends only on the income wave, indicating a possibility of a highly circular-polarized income wave. The analysis could be welcome if extremely high(e.g., almost 100%) CP from repeating FRBs is detected in the future. Finally, the production of a bulk of energetic bunches in the pulsar-like magnetosphere is discussed, which is relevant to the nature of the FRB central engine. | Wei-Yang Wang Jin-Chen Jiang Jiguang Lu Heng Xu Jiangwei Xu Kejia Lee Jifeng Liu Renxin Xu | 2022 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2022，65，8： | 0 |
| 6 | Advancing pulsar science with the FAST显示文摘As the rump left behind after an extremely gravity-induced supernova of an evolved massive star,a pulsar is made of cool CBM(i.e.,compressed baryonic matter at a low temperature).Pulsars are not only testbeds for fundamental interactions(e.g.,the nature of gravity[1]and of the strong force at low energies[2]),but also essential tools for detecting nanoHz gravitational waves[3].The pulsar science,whatever,usually depends on the measurement of pulsar radiation,e.g.,pulsar monitoring and timing.Additionally,searching new pulsars for further investigation is also an important focus of this research field.Pulsars have a very good showing,and have never stopped presenting surprises since the first discovery in 1967,because of the continuing development of advanced facilities. | JiGuang Lu KeJia Lee RenXin Xu | 2020 | Science China(Physics,Mechanics & Astronomy)2020，63，2： | 0 |
| 7 | Spin Evolution of the Magnetar SGR J1935+2154显示文摘Fast radio bursts(FRBs)are short pulses observed in radio frequencies usually originating from cosmological distances.The discovery of FRB 200428 and its X-ray counterpart from the Galactic magnetar SGR J1935+2154suggests that at least some FRBs can be generated by magnetars.However,the majority of X-ray bursts from magnetars are not associated with radio emission.The fact that only in rare cases can an FRB be generated raises the question regarding the special triggering mechanism of FRBs.Here we report long time spin evolution of SGR J1935+2154 until the end of 2022.According to v and v,the spin evolution of SGR J1935+2154 could be divided into two stages.The first stage evolves relatively steady evolution until 2020 April 27.After the burst activity in2020,the spin of SGR J1935+2154 shows strong variations,especially for v.After the burst activity in 2022October,a new spin-down glitch with△v/v=(-7.2±0.6)×10^(-6)is detected around MJD 59876,which is the second event in SGR J1935+2154.At the end,spin frequency and pulse profile do not show variations around the time of FRB 200428 and radio bursts 221014 and 221021,which supply strong clues to constrain the trigger mechanism of FRBs or radio bursts. | Ming-Yu Ge Yuan-Pei Yang Fang-Jun Lu Shi-Qi Zhou Long Ji Shuang-Nan Zhang Bing Zhang Liang Zhang Pei Wang Kejia Lee Weiwei Zhu Jian Li Xian Hou Qiao-Chu Li | 2024 | Research in Astronomy and Astrophysics2024，24，1： | 0 |
