Photographic observations of the Martian satellites were made at the opposition of 1967 with the Naval Observatory's 61-inch astrometric reflector. A small partially transparent metallic film filter was used to diminish the light from Mars in order that a measurable image for the planetary disk as well as for the satellites could be obtained. The plates were reduced by the method of plate constants using positions for the faint background stars determined from astrographic field plates. The random mean error of these observations was estimated to be not greater than ±0″.10.The main result of the orbital adjustment is a +2° correction to the zero of mean longitude for Phobos. This confirms the findings of Wilkins (1970) and is compatible with the results of the Mariner 9 observations. The scale of the orbits of both satellites gave accordant values for the mass of Mars and the combined value of 30 99 500 ± 2800 (m.e.) is in good agreement with modern determinations.The mean error for Deimos derived from the residuals after solution is ±0″.11, which agrees well with the observational error and indicates no large systematic error in either the theory or the observations. For Phobos, however, the residual error, ±0″.19, is twice the expected observational error. The implications of this discrepancy are discussed.  相似文献

We report speckle interferometric observations of Pluto and its moon (1978 P1) Charon obtained on 5 June 1980 with a single 1.8-m mirror of the Multiple Mirror Telescope. Our observations yield a separation of 0″.31 (±0″.05) between Pluto and Charon at position angle 285° (±7°) for JD 2444395.75. This result and other direct observations indicate an adjustment of +4.0 hr to the orbital epoch of R. S. Harrington and J. W. Christy [Astron.J.86, 442–443 (1981)]. Our observation, which represents the first resolution of the system near minimum separation, also suggests that the inclination of the orbit to the plane of the sky should be increased by 3°; this will delay the onset of the predicted eclipsee season by one apparition to 1984 or 1985. Our data are consistent with Pluto diameter 0″.14 (±0″.02) = 3000 (±400) km and Charon diameter 0″..05 (±0″.03) = 1100 (±600) km.  相似文献

It is shown that the autocorrelation function of a telescope diffraction-limited image is closely approximated by a subtraction of the mean cross correlation of pairs of speckle photographs from the mean autocorrelation of the same set of data. This fact is used to derive the angular diameter of the asteroid Vesta from a series of speckle interferometry data. The resultant apparent angular diameter of 0″.40 ± 0″.04 corresponds to an absolute diameter of 513 ± 51 km.  相似文献

The General Catalogue of Photoelectric Astrolabe Stars (GCPA) based on the Chinese photoelectric astrolabe system is described. It is a combined system of right ascension and declination synthesized from four primitive star catalogues' obtained with the photoelectric astrolabe. Four other primitive catalogues obtained with the Danjon astrolabe are reduced to the combined system and added to it. GCPA contains 1579 stars, 1541 Δα values and 1131 Δδ values. The overall average accuracy is ±3.3 ms in Δα, and ±0″.058 in Δδ; for the FK4 stars, the corresponding values are ±2.3 ms and ±0″.042. FK4 stars observed by two or more instruments gave 485 Δα values and 349 Δδ values, with external accuracies ±3.8 ms and ±0″.041. Corrections to the FK4 system as determined by GCPA are given and a comparison with the relevant catalogues is presented.  相似文献

The reduction of occultations observed by means of a double-image micrometer leads us to use limb profiles in order to determine limb corrections. After these corrections the dispersion of the results amounts to 0″.26 for reductions using C. B. Watts' lunar charts and 0″.35 for those using Th. Weimer's lunar profiles. The comparison of 18 profiles effectively used in our reductions permits us, in 17 cases, to show a difference between the adopted radii of the reference curves, sometimes with an offset. We translate this result in terms of a correction to the elevations given by Th. Weimer; this reduces to 0″.29 the dispersion of the results in the present case.  相似文献

It is shown that a rigourous determination of the argument in the limb charts of the Moon leads to a limb correction which, in some cases, may differ perceptibly from the one obtained by the traditional method. In the case of central occultations, the discrepancy may reach a maximum of 0″.9 when the Moon is near its maximum or minimum declination and introduces a statistical uncertainty of 0″.2 in the determination of the position of the Moon.  相似文献

We present relative astrometric and photometric measurements of visual binaries made in 2008, with the 76‐cm refractor of Côte d'Azur Observatory. Our observing list contains orbital couples as well as binaries whose motion is still uncertain. Three different techniques were used for obtaining measurements: Lucky imaging, speckle interferometry and the Direct Vector Autocorrelation method. We obtained 2420 new measurements of the relative position of 2225 objects, with angular separations in the range 0″.07‐11″.5, and an average accuracy of 0″.02. The mean error on the position angles is 0°.6. We managed to observe faint systems (mV ≈ 12) with large magnitude difference (up to ΔmV ≈ 5). We have thus been able to measure many systems containing red dwarf stars that had been poorly monitored since their discovery. We also measured the difference of magnitude of the two components of 376 objects with an estimated error of 0.1 mag. Finally, we provide a list of 33 newly discovered components of multiple or binary systems, which is a significant complement to our GII catalog (© 2012 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

We present relative astrometric measurements of visual binaries made during the second semester of 2006, with the speckle camera PISCO at the 102 cm Zeiss telescope of Brera Astronomical Observatory, in Merate. Our sample contains orbital couples as well as binaries whose motion is still uncertain. We obtained 175 new measurements of 169 objects, with angular separations in the range 0″.1–4″.2, and an average accuracy of 0″.01. The mean error on the position angles is 0°.6. Most of the position angles could be determined without the usual 180° ambiguity with the application of triplecorrelation techniques and/or by inspection of the long integration files.We also present the new orbits we have computed for ADS 11479, 11584 and 16538, for which our measurements lead to large residuals and/or for which the revision was justified by the significant number of observations made since the last orbit computation (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

We present relative astrometric measurements of visual binaries made during the second semester of 2007, with the speckle camera PISCO at the 102 cm Zeiss telescope of Brera Astronomical Observatory, in Merate. Our sample contains orbital couples as well as binaries whose motion is still uncertain. We obtained 283 new measurements of 279 objects, with angular separations in the range 0″.17–4″.4, and an average accuracy of 0″.014. The mean error on the position angles is 0°.6. Most of the position angles were determined without the usual 180° ambiguity with the application of triple‐correlation techniques and/or by inspection of the long integration files. We also present the new orbit we have computed for Zeta Aqr AB (ADS 15971), for which our measurements lead to large residuals with the previously computed orbit. We were also able to compute the elements of the perturbation orbit Bb‐P caused by an invisible companion, whose mass is estimated at 0.7 M (© 2010 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co.

Two versions of a fast, purely reflective Paul-Baker-type telescope are discussed, each with an 8.4-m aperture, 3° diameter flat field and f/1.25 focal ratio. The first version is based on a common, even asphere type of surface with zero conic constant. The primary and tertiary mirrors are 6th order aspheres, while the secondary mirror is an 8th order asphere (referred to here for brevity, as the 6/8/6 configuration). The D 80 diameter of a star image varies from 0″.18 on the optical axis up to 0″.27 at the edge of the field (9.3–13.5 μm). The second version of the telescope is based on a polysag surface type, which uses a polynomial expansion in the sag z, 1 $$ r^2 = 2R_0 z - \left( {1 + b} \right)z^2 + a_3 z^3 + a_4 z^3 + a_4 z^4 + \ldots + a_N z^N $$ instead of the common form of aspheric surface. This approach results in somewhat better images, with D 80 ranging from 0″.16 to 0″.23, using a lower-order 3/4/3 combination of powers for the mirror surfaces. An additional example with 3.5-m aperture, 3°.5 diameter flat field, and f/1.25 focal ratio featuring near-diffraction-limited image quality is also presented.  相似文献

The new 1.5‐m German solar telescope GREGOR at the Observatorio del Teide, Tenerife, is equipped with an integrated adaptive optics system. Although partly still in the commissioning phase, the system is already being used used for most science observations. It is designed to provide diffraction‐limited observations in the visible‐light regime for seeing better than 1.2″. We describe the AO system including the optical design, software, wavefront reconstruction, and performance (© 2012 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)  相似文献

The existence of third and fourth harmonics of the lunar gravity potential gives rise to sizable lunar physical librations. Using one recent set of potential estimates, the following effects are noted: the mean sub-Earth point is displaced from the earthward principal moment of inertia axis by 168″; the inclination of the lunar equator to the ecliptic is decreased by 14″.5; and a six year period libration in longitude, with amplitude 13″.1, is induced.  相似文献

Various estimates for the optical thickness of the Cassini division are studied in order to explain and eliminate the discrepancies between them. An analysis of dark-side observations and a theoretical study based on the behavior of collisions suggest that the optical thickness of the Cassini division is not constant, but fluctuates in the range of 10?4–10?3. The nonzero brightness in reflected light is caused either by stray light or by narrow optically thick ringlets inside the Cassini division.  相似文献

Observations of a sunspot during and after a partial solar eclipse are described. The amount of scattered light confirms the existence of a spread function component with a half width of 10″. The observations also indicate the possibility of severely underestimating this component by aureole measurements. Umbral continuum intensities of 0.10 I in the red spectral region were directly measured, the correction for scattered light amounts to 0.02 I . Intensities calculated with four umbral models are larger than the observed values, indicating this sunspot to be cooler by some 100 K. The wings of two strong Ca i lines are equally explained by the models of Henoux, Kneer, and Stellmacher/Wiehr. Yun's model can be ruled out because of too high a temperature.  相似文献

A compiled catalogue of 21 440 stars with magnitudes between 10 and 17 is prepared from original observations made at the end of the 20th century to the beginning of the 21st century. The catalogue contains 227 fields of the celestial sphere centered at ICRF extragalactic radio sources with declinations of ?17 to +89°. The field size is 40′ for both right ascension and declination. The internal accuracy of positions for both coordinates is no worse than 0.1″. A comparison of the stellar positions with the UCAC2 and CMC13 catalogues shows that the average external accuracy is approximately 0.05–0.15″. The positions of 10 795 stars with declinations to +50° are given for the epoch and equinox of J2000.0, whereas the positions of other stars are given for the epoch of observation.  相似文献

We present relative astrometric measurements of visual binaries made during the second semester of 2005, with the speckle camera PISCO at the 102 cm Zeiss telescope of Brera Astronomical Observatory, in Merate. Our sample contains orbital couples as well as binaries whose motion is still uncertain. The purpose of this long term program is to improve the accuracy of the orbits and determine the masses of the components. We performed 130 new observations of 120 objects, with most of the angular separations in the range 0″.1–4″, and with an average accuracy of 0″.01. Most of the position angles could be determined without the usual 180. ambiguity with the application of triple‐correlation techniques, and their mean error is 0°8. We have found a possible new triple system: ADS 11077. The measurements of the closest binaries were made with a new data reduction procedure, based on model fitting of the background of the auto‐correlations. As this procedure proved to be very efficient, we have re‐processed the old observations of close binaries made with PISCO in Merate since 2004. We thus improved 20 measurements already published and obtained 7 new measurements for observations that were previously reported as “unresolved”. We finally present revised orbits for ADS 684, MCA 55Aac (in the Beta 1 Cyg–Albireo multiple system) and ADS 14783 for which the previously published orbits led to large residuals with our measurements and for which the new observations made since their computation allowed a significant improvement of those old orbits. The sum of the masses that we derived for those systems are consistent with the spectral type of the stars and the dynamic parallaxes are in good agreement with the parallaxes measured by Hipparcos.

We present the results of our 2005–2007 campaign to measure the vertical distribution of optical turbulence above Mount Maidanak. The measurements were performed with the MASS instrument, a multi-aperture scintillation sensor that has been widely used for such studies in recent years at many observatories worldwide. Analysis of the data shows that the median seeing in the free atmosphere (at an altitude of 0.5 km and higher) is 0 ″46, while the isoplanatic angle is 2″.47. Given the large time constant (about 7 ms at good seeing), such conditions are favorable for using adaptive optics and interferometric measurements in the visible and near-infrared spectral ranges.  相似文献
