Comparing turbulent parameters obtained from LITOS and radiosonde measurements
Stratospheric turbulence is important for the mixing of trace species and the energy balance, but direct measurements are sparse due to the required resolution and accuracy. Recently, turbulence parameters such as the energy dissipation rate ε were inferred from standard radiosonde data by means of a Thorpe analysis. To this end, layers with vertically decreasing potential temperature are analy...
متن کاملGAIA Spectroscopy and Radial Velocities
GAIA spectroscopic and radial velocity performancies are reviewed on the base of groundbased test observations and simulations. The prospects for accurate analysis of stellar atmospheres (temperature, gravity, chemical abundances, rotation, peculiarities) and precise radial velocities (single stars, binaries, pulsating stars) are colorful provided the spectral dispersion is high enough. A highe...
متن کاملInfrared radial velocities of vB 10
We present radial velocities of the M8V-type, very low-mass star vB 10 that have been obtained at four different epochs of observations between 2001 and 2008. We use high-resolution (R∼ 20,000) near-infrared (J-band) spectra taken with the nirspec instrument on the Keck II telescope. Our data suggest that vB 10 shows radial velocity variability with an amplitude of ∼1 km s−1, a result that is c...
متن کاملOn the accuracy of GAIA radial velocities
We have obtained 782 real spectra and used them as inputs for 6700 automatic crosscorrelation runs to investigate GAIA potential in terms of radial velocity accuracy. We have explored the dispersions 0.25, 0.5, 1 and 2 Å/pix over the 8490–8740 Å GAIA range. We have investigated late-F to early-M stars (constituting the vast majority of GAIA targets), slowly rotating (< Vrot sin i > = 4 km sec )...
متن کاملPrecise radial velocities of giant stars
Aims. We aim to detect and characterize substellar companions to K giant stars to further our knowledge of planet formation and stellar evolution of intermediate-mass stars. Methods. For more than a decade we have used Doppler spectroscopy to acquire high-precision radial velocity measurements of K giant stars. All data for this survey were taken at Lick Observatory. Our survey includes 373 G a...
