New prediction of extragalactic GeV gamma-ray emission from radio lobes of young AGN jets

M. Kino, H. Ito, N. Kawakatu +1

We present a new prediction of GeV -ray emission from radio lobes of young AGN jets. In the previous work of Kino et al. (2007), MeV -ray bremsstrahlung emission was predicte…

Quasi-Hilda Comet 147P/Kushida-Muramatsu: Another long temporary satellite capture by Jupiter

Katsuhito Ohtsuka, Takashi Ito, Makoto Yoshikawa +2

The quasi-Hilda comets (QHCs), being in unstable 3:2 Jovian mean motion resonance, are considered a major cause of temporary satellite capture (TSC) by Jupiter. Though the QHCs may…

Magnetic Landscape of Sun's Polar Region

S. Tsuneta, K. Ichimoto, Y. Katsukawa +11

We present the magnetic landscape of the polar region of the Sun that is unprecedented in terms of high spatial resolution, large field of view, and polarimetric precision. These o…

Funnel-flow accretion onto highly magnetized neutron stars and shock generation

Shigeyuki Karino, Motoki Kino, John C. Miller

In this paper, we initiate a new study of steady funnel-flow accretion onto strongly magnetized neutron stars, including a full treatment of shock generation. As a first step, we a…

Emergence of a Helical Flux Rope Under an Active Region Prominence

Takenori J. Okamoto, Saku Tsuneta, Bruce W. Lites +12

Continuous observations were obtained of active region 10953 with the Solar Optical Telescope (SOT) on board the \emph{Hinode} satellite during 2007 April 28 to May 9. A prominence…
