E-mail: [email protected] Glen Mackie Swinburne University of Technology, PO Box 218, Hawthorn, Victoria 3122, Australia. E-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This history of the Astrophysical Research Consortium (ARC) and the Apache Point Observatory (APO) describes why and how the ARC-was formed, !he vision for the APO, and the technology used to Implement that vision. In particular, It examines the building of a low cost, lightweight, f/1.75, 3.5 meter telescope with an experimental mirror cast al the Stewart Observatory Mirror Lab, and key .features of remote observing, rapid instrument change and flexible scheduling. The organizational challenge of unifying distinct Institutions and their astronomy programs, and the difficulty of gathering funds for this venture, are also explored. Key scientific results and achievements using the APO are noted. This paper Is based on Interviews with key personnel, documents in the ARC business files, and published papers and reports (Including astronomy department annual reports). Ke�words: history, astronomy, Apache Point Observatory, remote observing, spincast mirror 1 INTRODUCTION ually could fund or fully utilize it (Wallerstein, 2004), New Mexico State University, Princeton University, Like most human endeavor, astronomy depends on the University of Chicago, the University of Washing­ bigger and better tools to break through the frontiers of ton, and Washington State University formed the discovery and ensure the advancement of our know­ Astrophysical Research Consortium (ARC) in 1984 in ledge.

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.

  • NMSU Department of Astronomy Department Handbook 2020-2021
    NMSU Department of Astronomy Department Handbook 2020-2021 1 INTRODUCTION Welcome to the NMSU Department of Astronomy. We strive to provide a vigorous, exciting program of research and education in Astronomy and Astrophysics, covering a broad range of interests, from planetary science and extra-solar planets, to cosmology. With the ARC 3.5-m and NMSU 1-m telescopes at the Apache Point Observatory, as well as the Sloan 2.5 meter telescope at APO and our 24" at Tortugas Mountain, we offer exciting opportunities for observational projects. These telescopes combined with the Sunspot Solar Observatory at Sacramento Peak, the National Radio Astronomy Observatory near Socorro, NM, the Los Alamos and Sandia National Laboratories, Kirtland Air Force Base, all of the national facilities, as well as the in-house NASA Planetary Data System Atmospheres data archive Node, offer excellent opportunities for research on the MS and Ph.D. levels. This guide is intended to help you through the procedures required by NMSU to achieve an advanced degree in Astronomy. You should read it carefully and then feel free to ask your faculty advisor any questions that arise. This document is constantly evolving, so any comments that you have to improve it would be appreciated. The policies and procedures outlined in this guide will be effective for the 2020-2021 entering class. More senior students may choose to follow these guidelines or those given to them upon entrance into the program. Please note that it is impossible for any written guide to anticipate all questions that students may have about the program, and that the program itself is an evolving entity.
