Windriver Lane Reno, NV 89511, USA (Received April 18, 2021; Revised June 23, 2021; Accepted July 15, 2021) Submitted to ApJ ABSTRACT We calculate directly determined values for effective temperature (TEFF) and radius (R) for 191 giant stars based upon high resolution angular size measurements from optical interferometry at the Palomar Testbed Interferometer. Narrow- to wide-band photometry data for the giants are used to establish bolometric fluxes and luminosities through spectral energy distribution fitting, which allow for homogeneously establishing an assessment of spectral type and dereddened V0 − K0 color; these two parameters are used as calibration indices for establishing trends in TEFF and R.

The four persistent radio sources in the northern sky with the highest flux density at metre wavelengths are Cassiopeia A, Cygnus A, Taurus A, and Virgo A; collectively they are called the A-team. Their flux densities at ultra-low frequencies (< 100 MHz) can reach several thousands of janskys, and they often contaminate observations of the low-frequency sky by interfering with image processing. Furthermore, these sources are foreground objects for all-sky observations hampering the study of faint signals, such as the cosmological 21 cm line from the epoch of reionisation.

  • Laboratory Astrophysics White Paper
    LABORATORY ASTROPHYSICS WHITE PAPER (BASED ON THE 2010 NASA LABORATORY ASTROPHYSICS WORKSHOP IN GATLINBURG, TENNESSEE, 25-28 OCTOBER 2010) Report prepared by the Scientific Organizing Committee (SOC): Daniel Wolf Savin, Columbia University, SOC Chair Lou Allamandola, NASA Ames Research Center Steve Federman, University of Toledo Paul Goldsmith, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Caroline Kilbourne, NASA Goddard Space Flight Center Karin Öberg, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics David Schultz, Oak Ridge National Laboratory, LOC Chair Susanna Widicus Weaver, Emory University Additional contributions on plasma laboratory astrophysics by: Hantao Ji, Princeton Plasma Physics Laboratory Bruce Remington, Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory Reviewers: Nancy Brickhouse, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics Farid Salama, NASA Ames Research Center Lucy Ziurys, University of Arizona 1 Executive Summary Our understanding of the cosmos rests on knowledge of the underlying physical processes that generate the spectra, composition, and structure of the observed astronomical objects. Laboratory astrophysics is the Rosetta Stone that enables us to translate these observations into knowledge. Astrophysical discoveries such as the accelerating expansion of the universe, the atmospheric composition of exoplanets, and the organic nature of interstellar chemistry rely upon advances in laboratory astrophysics. This importance of laboratory astrophysics was noted by the National Research Council 2010 Decadal Survey of Astronomy and Astrophysics

  • The NASA Astrophysics Data System: Free Access to the Astronomical Literature on -Line and Through Email
    High Energy Physics Libraries Webzine Issue 5 / November 2001 http://library.cern.ch/HEPLW/5/papers/1 The NASA Astrophysics Data System: Free Access to the Astronomical Literature On -line and through Email Guenther Eichhorn , Alberto Accomazzi, Carolyn S. Grant, Michael J. Kurtz and Stephen S. Murray (*) 28/09/2001 Abstract: The Astrophysics Data System (ADS) provides access to the astronomical literature through the World Wide Web. It is a NASA funded project and access to all the ADS services is free to everybody world -wide. The ADS Abstract Service allows the searching of four databases with abstracts in Astronomy, Instrumentation, Physics/Geophysics, and the LANL Preprints with a total of over 2.2 million references. The system also provides access to reference and citation information, links to on-line data, electronic journal articles, and other on-line information. The ADS Article Service contains the full articles for most of the astronomical literature back to volume 1. It contains the scanned pages of all the major journals (Astrophysical Journal, Astronomical Journal, Astronomy & Astrophysics, Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, and Solar Physics), as well as most smaller journals back to volume 1. The ADS can be accessed through any web browser without signup or login. Alternatively an email interfa ce is available that allows our users to execute queries via email and to retrieve scanned articles via email. This might be interesting for users on slow or unreliable links, since the email system will retry sending information automatically until the tr ansfer is complete. There are now 9 mirror sites of the ADS available in different parts of the world to improve access.

Sánchez, Cambridge University Press, 1999. INTERNET SERVICES FOR PROFESSIONAL ASTRONOMY Heinz Andernach Depto. de Astronomía, IFUG, Universidad de Guanajuato, Guanajuato, C.P. 36000, Mexico Email: [email protected] Abstract. A (subjective) overview of Internet resources relevant to professional astronomers is given. Special emphasis is put on databases of astronomical objects and servers providing general information, e.g. on astronomical catalogues, finding charts from sky surveys, bibliographies, directories, browsers through multi-wavelength observational archives, etc. Archives of specific observational data will be discussed in more detail in other chapters of this book, dealing with the corresponding part of the electromagnetic spectrum. About 200 different links are mentioned, and every attempt was made to make this report as up-to-date as possible. As the field is rapidly growing with improved network technology, it will be just a snapshot of the present situation.

  • Astronomical Data Formats: What We Have and How We Got Here
    Astronomical Data Formats: What we have and how we got here Jessica D. Mink Smithsonian Astrophysical Observatory, 60 Garden St., Cambridge, MA 02131 Abstract Despite almost all being acquired as photons, astronomical data from different instruments and at different stages in its life may exist in different formats to serve different purposes. Beyond the data itself, descriptive information is associated with it as metadata, either included in the data format or in a larger multi-format data structure. Those formats may be used for the acquisition, processing, exchange, and archiving of data. It has been useful to use similar formats, or even a single standard to ease interaction with data in its various stages using familiar tools. Knowledge of the evolution and advantages of present standards is useful before we discuss the future of how astronomical data is formatted. The evolution of the use of world coordinates in FITS is presented as an example. Keywords: data format, FITS, distortion, WCS 1. Where We Are The astronomical community’s most widespread data format, FITS [1] is 35 years old, and interest in developing a new and improved standards for formatting the larger and more varied types of astronomical data being produced by more and more complicated instruments on larger and larger telescopes is spreading [2] and [3]. Several existing options are being proposed: HDF5, a Hierarchical Data System [4], and JPEG2000, a widely-used image format [5], among others. The problems we face are not all new, and I would like to cover some history about how we got where we are and how our present solutions developed.
