Astronomers control the radio dish, slewing it from horizon to horizon, from off-site locations. Occasional staff workers might meander through the halls during the day. But otherwise, the facility is as quiet as the universe it observes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u6fb3\u5927\u5229\u4e9a\u768464\u7c73\u5e15\u514b\u65af\u5c04\u7535\u671b\u8fdc\u955c\u4e00\u76f4\u9ed8\u9ed8\u5730\u5de5\u4f5c\u7740\u3002\u5929\u6587\u5b66\u5bb6\u63a7\u5236\u7740\u5de8\u578b\u7684\u5c04\u7535\u629b\u7269\u9762\u5929\u7ebf\uff0c\u5de6\u53f3\u6cbf\u7740\u4e0d\u540c\u5e73\u9762\u626b\u63cf\u3002\u767d\u5929\u5458\u5de5\u4eec\u5076\u5c14\u5728\u5927\u5385\u91cc\u7ecf\u8fc7\u6216\u4ea4\u8c08\uff0c\u9664\u6b64\u4e4b\u5916\uff0c\u8fd9\u5957\u79d1\u7814\u8bbe\u65bd\u5c31\u50cf\u5b83\u89c2\u5bdf\u5230\u7684\u5b87\u5b99\u4e00\u6837\u5b89\u9759\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n But on one particular day in mid-March, the facility was bustling with activity. Astronomers weren\u2019t, however, huddled around the radio dish. They were gathered around a microwave oven in the facility\u2019s kitchen. The observers were continuously heating and re-heating a cup of water in order to test the microwave\u2019s effect \u2014 if any \u2014 on the colossal dish nearby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u76f4\u52303\u6708\u4e2d\u65ec\u7684\u67d0\u4e00\u5929\uff0c\u8fd9\u91cc\u6025\u5207\u5730\u5fd9\u788c\u8d77\u6765\uff0c\u7136\u800c\u5929\u6587\u5b66\u5bb6\u4eec\u5e76\u6ca1\u6709\u5fd9\u4e8e\u63a7\u5236\u629b\u7269\u9762\u5929\u7ebf\uff0c\u4ed6\u4eec\u805a\u96c6\u5728\u5b9e\u9a8c\u5ba4\u53a8\u623f\u7684\u5fae\u6ce2\u7089\u65c1\uff0c\u4e0d\u65ad\u5730\u7528\u5fae\u6ce2\u7089\u52a0\u70ed\u4e00\u676f\u53c8\u4e00\u676f\u7684\u6c34\uff0c\u4ee5\u6d4b\u8bd5\u5fae\u6ce2\u7089\u5bf9\u9644\u8fd1\u5c04\u7535\u5929\u7ebf\u7684\u5f71\u54cd\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n The reason dates back 17 years, when astronomers first spotted fleeting bursts of radio signals in their data.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u8fd9\u53ef\u8ffd\u6eaf\u523017\u5e74\u524d\uff0c\u5f53\u65f6\u5929\u6587\u5b66\u5bb6\u9996\u6b21\u5728\u4ed6\u4eec\u7684\u6570\u636e\u4e2d\u53d1\u73b0\u4e86\u7a0d\u7eb5\u5373\u901d\u7684\u65e0\u7ebf\u7535\u4fe1\u53f7\u3002<\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily Petroff (Swinburne University of Technology, Australia) says that the discovery team knew early on that these so-called perytons<\/em> were local. The observatory watches along 13 different radio beams as the dish sweeps across the sky. Any point-like astrophysical source will be brightest at just one of those frequencies. Perytons, however, appear equally bright in all 13 beams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The fact that perytons only appeared in data gathered by the Parkes telescope also suggested the source was local. But the team didn\u2019t know just how local perytons might be. Theories about the signals\u2019 origins included lightning, satellites, and any of the various electronics on site. \u201cThere are many potential offenders,\u201d says Sarah Burke-Spolaor (National Radio Astronomy Observatory). \u201cWe just had no clear idea where to start testing.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Then Petroff, Burke-Spolaor, and their colleagues installed a real-time radio interference monitor late last year. In January, the telescope detected three of the signals and the interference<\/strong> monitor also picked up three signals at 2.3 to 2.5 GHz, the same frequency range that a microwave oven runs on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So on that fateful day in March, the astronomers found themselves continually testing and re-testing a nearby microwave oven. Still, they couldn\u2019t re-create a peryton. But when they opened the oven\u2019s door prematurely<\/strong>, the signal appeared. They had unleashed a small but powerful radio signal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The perytons were likely caused by staff members who were too impatient to wait for their lunches to finish heating<\/em><\/strong>. \u201cWe were quite surprised about this,\u201d says Petroff. \u201cIt turned out to be something so simple and so close! It felt pretty good to solve the mystery.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sensitive radio telescopes, like the one at Parkes, can easily detect rogue radio signals. And human interference is a common frustration for radio astronomers. In the telescope\u2019s early days, Burke-Spolaor often found herself observing poor data only to find that someone at the visitor\u2019s center was on his cell phone or the bathroom\u2019s toilets were continuously flushing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Recently, astronomers even voiced concerns<\/a> over a plan to design robotic lawn mowers that would run on radio waves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The perytons in particular interfered with this team\u2019s main mission: to understand the source of fast radio bursts<\/a>, brief but brilliant signals with potential extragalactic origins. Both perytons and fast radio bursts have a distinct look to them, in that their lower frequencies arrive noticeably later than their higher ones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Typically, this dispersion is created when light travels through dense clouds of electrons in extragalactic space. Lower frequencies (longer wavelengths) of radio emission interact more with the electrons than higher frequencies do, and so the lower frequencies end up delayed, like an extrovert trying to leave a party. The higher the time delay, the further the signal has traveled. Most astronomers think fast radio bursts originate as far as 10 billion light-years away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n But seeing a terrestrial signal exhibit this same effect worried astronomers. It didn\u2019t help that the first fast radio burst discovered had a nearly identical time delay to the perytons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Astronomers now know of several fast radio bursts, and they\u2019re certain that perytons and bursts are two different phenomena. Not only do perytons always exhibit the same time delay (one typical of a microwave oven), but they also tend to cluster around lunchtime, says Petroff. Fast radio bursts, on the other hand, occur at random, with a range of time delays because they\u2019re coming from a range of cosmic distances.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With the mystery settled, Petroff and her colleagues can focus on the origins of fast radio bursts. It\u2019s still unclear how these enigmatic bursts are created \u2014 perhaps when an incredibly fast-spinning magnetar throws off flares, or two dense neutron stars collide. Either way, it\u2019s likely to be far more exciting than a microwave oven.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Reference:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Emily Petroff et al. \u201cIdentifying the Source of Perytons at the Parkes Observatory.\u201d<\/a> Posted to arXiv.org April 9, 2015.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n \u8bba\u6587PDF\u539f\u6587\u4e0b\u8f7d:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\tIdentifying the source of perytons at the Parkes radio telescope\t(\u4e0b\u8f7d4296\t)\n<\/a>\n\n\n\n\n \u6587\u4e2d\u65f6\u9891\u8054\u5408\u5206\u6790\u548cRFI\u76d1\u89c6\uff1a<\/p>\n\n\n\n Microwave Ovens Posing as Astronomical Objects —Did microwave ovens lead astronomers astray?<\/p>\n\n\n\n By Alexander Hellemans<\/p>\n\n\n\n https:\/\/spectrum.ieee.org\/tech-talk\/aerospace\/astrophysics\/microwave-ovens-posing-as-astronomical-objects<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n BBC\u62a5\u9053\uff1a \u6765\u81ea\u9065\u8fdc\u6df1\u7a7a\u7684\u795e\u79d8\u4fe1\u53f7<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mysterious radio signals from deep space detected – BBC News<\/p>\n\n\n\n Jan 09, 2019 https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/news\/science-environment-46811618<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/emt.bjtu.edu.cn\/cn\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Parkes_480_274-300x171-1.jpg\")
