Matrix Ernst potentials for EMDA with multiple vector fields
We show that the Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton-Axion system with multiple vector
fields (bosonic sector of the D=4, N=4 supergravity) restricted to spacetimes
possessing a non-null Killing vector field admits a concise representation in
terms of the Ernst-type matrix valued potentials. A constructive derivation of
the SWIP solutions is given and a colliding waves counterpart of the DARN-NUT
solution is obtained. SU(m,m) chiral representation of the two-dimensionally
reduced system is derived and the corresponding Kramer-Neugebauer-type map is
presented.Comment: Latex file, no figure
Optical complex for the study of pulsating aurora with sub-millisecond time resolution on the basis of the Verkhnetulomsky observatory
International audienceA new telescope-spectrometer was installed at Verkhnetulomsky observatory (68?36'N, 31?47'E) to supplement the data from all-sky cameras with measurements of the fine space-time structure of the auroral luminescence. The telescope uses 5 cm ultraviolet (UV) transparent lens as an optical system and a matrix of multi-anode photomultiplier tubes as a photo detector. The angular resolution of the telescope is 1.2? and the temporal resolution is 0.3 ms. The telescope observes a central part (20?) of the all-sky camera field of view (FOV). Description of both optical instruments and results of the first joint measurements are presented
Pioneering space based detector for study of cosmic rays beyond GZK Limit
Space-based detectors for study of extreme energy cosmic rays (EECR) are being prepared as promising new direction of EECR study. Pioneering space device – tracking ultraviolet set up (TUS) is at the last stage of its construction and testing. TUS detector description is presented
