  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In
    Abasic requirement for studying the heavens is determining where in the sky things are. To specify sky positions, astronomers have developed several coordinate systems. Each uses a coordinate grid projected on to the celestial sphere, in analogy to the geographic coordinate system used on the surface of the Earth. The coordinate systems differ only in their choice of the fundamental plane, which divides the sky into two equal hemispheres along a great circle (the fundamental plane of the geographic system is the Earth's equator) . Each coordinate system is named for its choice of fundamental plane. The equatorial coordinate system is probably the most widely used celestial coordinate system. It is also the one most closely related to the geographic coordinate system, because they use the same fun­ damental plane and the same poles. The projection of the Earth's equator onto the celestial sphere is called the celestial equator. Similarly, projecting the geographic poles on to the celest ial sphere defines the north and south celestial poles. However, there is an important difference between the equatorial and geographic coordinate systems: the geographic system is fixed to the Earth; it rotates as the Earth does . The equatorial system is fixed to the stars, so it appears to rotate across the sky with the stars, but of course it's really the Earth rotating under the fixed sky. The latitudinal (latitude-like) angle of the equatorial system is called declination (Dec for short) . It measures the angle of an object above or below the celestial equator. The longitud inal angle is called the right ascension (RA for short).

Mixed forecasts, Clear Outside suggesting 27% cloud around midnight, Xasteria saying clear, Clear Outside loaded from within Xasteria offering something in-between (how do you get that, hey!?) and Meteoblue forecasting clear skies from 11 but with poor ‘Index 2’ and Jet Stream readings.... Having neglected visual astronomy for many months (having spent my time finally getting the imaging gear to play ball), I spent forty odd minutes re-learning how to set everything back up - in fact, it be on offer with the moon in attendance... took longer than it does to wheel out the imaging gear. Times have changed, my usual (100% visual) observing buddy was having a go at imaging (spectroscopy), so I was on my own for this evening. It meant I’d have to keep my own notes for a change, but also allow me to go at my own pace as I reacquainted myself with the night sky. By 8.30 I was ready to go, clear skies, still a shade of blue with a half moon hanging over in the south western sky. Temperature rapidly dropping. 21mm eyepiece in place easily held the entire moon. Fantastic details, sharp, contrasty, zero colour..

  • Open Clusters
    Open Clusters Open clusters (also known as galactic clusters) are of tremendous importance to the science of astronomy, if not to astrophysics and cosmology generally. Star clusters serve as the "laboratories" of astronomy, with stars now all at nearly the same distance and all created at essentially the same time. Each cluster thus is a running experiment, where we can observe the effects of composition, age, and environment. We are hobbled by seeing only a snapshot in time of each cluster, but taken collectively we can understand their evolution, and that of their included stars. These clusters are also important tracers of the Milky Way and other parent galaxies. They help us to understand their current structure and derive theories of the creation and evolution of galaxies. Just as importantly, starting from just the Hyades and the Pleiades, and then going to more distance clusters, open clusters serve to define the distance scale of the Milky Way, and from there all other galaxies and the entire universe. However, there is far more to the study of star clusters than that. Anyone who has looked at a cluster through a telescope or binoculars has realized that these are objects of immense beauty and symmetry. Whether a cluster like the Pleiades seen with delicate beauty with the unaided eye or in a small telescope or binoculars, or a cluster like NGC 7789 whose thousands of stars are seen with overpowering wonder in a large telescope, open clusters can only bring awe and amazement to the viewer. These sights are available to all.

  • The Star Cluster Collinder 232 in the Carina Complex and Its Relation to Trumpler 14/16 Almost Coeval
    Astronomy & Astrophysics manuscript no. AA0335 August 15, 2018 (DOI: will be inserted by hand later) The star cluster Collinder 232 in the Carina complex and its relation to Trumpler 14/16⋆ Giovanni Carraro1,2, Martino Romaniello2, Paolo Ventura3, and Ferdinando Patat2 1 Dipartimento di Astronomia, Universit`adi Padova, vicolo dell’Osservatorio 2, I-35122, Padova, Italy 2 European Southern Observatory, Karl-Schwarzschild-Str 2, D-85748 Garching b. M¨unchen, Germany 3 Osservatorio Astronomico di Roma, Via di Frascati 33, I-00040, Monte Porzio Catone, Italy Received September 2003; accepted Abstract. In this paper we present and analyze new CCD UBV RI photometry down to V ≈ 21 in the region of the young open cluster Collinder 232, located in the Carina spiral arm, and discuss its relationship to Trumpler 14 and Trumpler 16, the two most prominent young open clusters located in the core of NGC 3372 (the Carina Nebula). First of all we study the extinction pattern in the region. We find that the total to selective absorption ratio RV differs from cluster to cluster, being 3.48 ± 0.11, 4.16 ± 0.07 and 3.73 ± 0.01 for Trumpler 16, Trumpler 14 and Collinder 232, respectively. Then we derive individual reddenings and intrinsic colours and magnitudes using the method devised by Romaniello et al. (2002). Ages, age spreads and distances are then estimated by comparing the Colour Magnitude Diagrams and the Hertzsprung-Russel diagram with post and pre-main sequence tracks and isochrones. We find that Trumpler 14 and Collinder 232 lie at the same distance from the Sun (about 2.5 kpc), whereas Trumpler 16 lies much further out, at about 4 kpc from the Sun.

In this paper we present and analyze CCD UBVRI photometry in the region of the three young open clusters NGC 3114, Collinder 228, and vdB-Hagen 99, located in the Carina spiral feature. NGC 3114 lies in the outskirts of the Carina nebula. We found 7 star members in a severely contaminated field, and obtain a distance of 950 pc and an age less than 3 108 yrs. Collinder 228 is a younger cluster (8 106 yrs), located in× front of the Carina nebula complex, for which we identify 11 new members and suggest that 30%× of the stars are probably binaries. As for vdB-Hagen 99, we add 4 new members, confirming that it is a nearby cluster located at 500 pc from the Sun and projected toward the direction of the Carina spiral arm. Key words.
