In this second paper, we estimate the vertical scale parameters of 48 non-edge-onspiral galaxies based on the method proposed by Peng et al. and on the results given in Paper I. Aswe know, for edge-on disc galaxies we can obtain the vertical scale parameter from the photometry,once a mathematical form is specified for the vertical light distribution. For non-edge-on galaxies,some other methods have to be used. The statistical result was that the vertical scale parameter iscomparable for edge-on and non-edge-on galaxies, although it is obtained from two very differentmethods.展开更多

Utilizing this simple PBL model, we also compute the wind spirals of a certain circular vortex over level ground and over a west-east ranged mountain, respectively. The results show that when there exsits large-scale orographic forcing,vertical advection may exert considerable influence on the wind distribution of PBL, the angle between geostrophic flow and surface wind, and the height of the top of PBL.展开更多

Since the source of both the redshifts is the same, they both independently relate to the same proper distance of the light source. Using this approach we have developed a hybrid model combining the Einstein de Sitter model and the tired light model that yields a slightly better fit to Supernovae Ia redshift data using one parameter than the standard ΛCDM model with two parameters. We have shown that the ratio of tired light component to the Einstein de Sitter component of redshift has evolved from 2.5 in the past, corresponding to redshift 1000, to its present value of 1.5. The hybrid model yields Hubble constant H0 =69.11(±0.53)km·s-1 ·Mpc-1 and the deceleration parameter q0 =-0.4. The component of Hubble constant responsible for expansion of the universe is 40% of H0 and for the tired light is 60% of H0. Consequently, the critical density is only 16% of its currently accepted value;a lot less dark matter is needed to make up the critical density. In addition, the best data fit yields the cosmological constant density parameter =0. The tired light effect may thus be considered equivalent to the cosmological constant in the hybrid model.展开更多

It is found that a monopole and dipole correction for the radial acceleration relation can better describe the SPARC data set. The monopole term is negligible but the dipole magnitude is significant. It is also found that the dipole correction is mostly induced by anisotropy in the acceleration scale. The magnitude of the g↑-dipole reaches 0.25±0.04, and its direction is aligned to (l,b)=(171.30°±7.18°,-15.41°±4.87°), which is very close to the maximum anisotropy direction from the hemisphere comparison method. Furthermore, a robust check shows that the dipole anisotropy could not be reproduced by an isotropic mock data set. However, it is still premature to claim that the Universe is anisotropic, due to the small data samples and uncertainty in the current observations.展开更多
