Numerical modeling of troposphere-induced gravity wave propagation

Sources of internal gravity waves (IGW) in the upper atmosphere are assumed to be meteorological processes in the troposphere. These sources are vertically and horizontally inhomogeneous and time dependent. In order to describe the IGW propagation from such sources, a numerical solution of a system of hydrodynamical equations is required. In addition, it is necessary to take into account the influence of the altitude latitude inhomogeneity of the temperature and wind fields on the IGW propagation as well as the processes of dissipation. An algorithm is proposed for numerical modelling of the IGW propagation over a limited area from tropospheric local sources to the upper atmosphere. The algorithm takes into account all the above features. A spectral grid method is used with the expansion of wave fields into the Fourier series over longitude. The upper limit conditions were obtained from the requirement of a limited energy dissipation rate in an atmospheric column. The no slip (zero velocity) condition was used at the Earth's surface

Pionic Degrees of Freedom in Atomic Nuclei and Quasielastic Knockout of Pions by High-Energy Electrons

The nonlinear model of pionic condensate in nuclei by G. Preparata can be efficiently verified by investigation of the quasielastic knockout process of pions out of nuclei by high energy electrons. First, a momentum distribution (MD) of the collective pions has a bright maximum at q=0.3 Gev.Second the excitation spectrum of a recoil nucleus is concentrated at low energies E lesser than 1MeV. The results for the pion knockout from mesonic clouds of individual nucleons are absolutely different. The latter results are presented both for pion and rho-meson clouds localized on nucleons.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figure
