ICRAnet and ICRA 3^rd Italian-Sino Workshop on Relativistic Astrophysics July 10 -20 2006, Pescara, Italy
Participants Italian Chinese The 3rd Italian-Sino Workshop on Relativistic Astrophysics focuses on the newest developments of understanding supernova, gamma ray bursts and cosmology. It includes theories and models of supernova, gamma ray bursts, dark matter, dark energy, and dark ages, as well as observational cosmology of supernovas and 21 cm emission at high redshifts.

Aim of the work is to investigate whether the presence of viscous corrections to the evolution of a collapsing gas cloud influence the top-down fragmentation process. To this end, we generalize the approach presented by C. Hunter to include in the dynamics of the (uniform and spherically symmetric) cloud the negative pressure contribution associated to the bulk viscosity phenomenology. Within the framework of a Newtonian approach, we extend to the viscous case either the Lagrangian, either the Eulerian motion of the system and we treat the asymptotic evolution in correspondence to a viscosity coefficient of the form $\zeta=\zeta_0\rho^{5/6}$ ($\rho$ being the cloud density and $\zeta_0=const.$). We show how the adiabatic-like behavior of the gas is deeply influenced by viscous correction when its collapse reaches the extreme regime toward the singularity. In fact, for sufficiently large viscous contributions, density contrasts associated to a given scale of the fragmentation process acquire, asymptotically, a vanishing behavior which prevents the formation of sub-structures. Since in the non-dissipative case density contrasts diverge, we can conclude that in the adiabatic-like collapse the top down mechanism of structures formation is suppressed as soon as enough strong viscous effects are taken into account. Such a feature is not present in the isothermal-like collapse because the sub-structures formation is yet present and outlines the same behavior as in the non-viscous case. We emphasize that in the adiabatic-like collapse the bulk viscosity is also responsible for the appearance of a threshold scale beyond which perturbations begin to increase; this issue, absent in the non-viscous ...

Even a small fraction of dark matter particles decayed or annihilated during the cosmic dark age can provide sufficient energy to affect the ionization state of the baryonic gas. The ionization history of the Universe can be probed by CMB observations. Using current CMB data, we obtain constraint on the decay and annihilation rate of dark matter particles. 2.

Using active optics technique to control its reflecting corrector makes LAMOST a unique astronomical instrument in combining a large aperture with a wide field of view. The available large focal plane of 1.75-meter in diameter may accommodate up to 4000 fibers, by which the collected light of distant and faint celestial objects is fed into the spectrographs, promising a very high spectrum acquiring rate of several ten-thousands of spectra per night. The telescope will be located at the Xinglong Station of Beijing Astronomical Observatory, Chinese Academy of Sciences, as a national facility open to the whole astronomical community. The spectroscopic survey carried out by LAMOST of tens of millions of galaxies and others will make substantial contribution to the study of extra-galactic astrophysics and cosmology, such as galaxies, quasars and the large-scale structure of the universe. Its spectroscopic survey of large number of stars will make substantial contribution to the study of stellar astrophysics and the ...
