ABSTRACT The international time scales, International Atomic Time (TAI) and Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), are elaborated at the Bureau International des Poids et Mesures (BIPM), thanks to the contribution of 57 national time laboratories that maintain local realizations of UTC. The Iberoamerican contribution to TAI has increased in the last years. Ten laboratories in America and one in Spain participate to the calculation of TAI , increasing its stability with the data of industrial atomic clocks and improving its accuracy with frequency measurements of a caesium source developed and maintained at one laboratory. This paper summarizes the characteristics of the reference time scales and describes the contributions of the Iberoamerican time laboratories to them. Key Words: TIME | REFERENCE SYSTEMS 1.

The role of GNSSs in the calculation of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), as well as the capacity of GNSSs to provide UTC time dissemination services are described, leading now to a time transfer accuracy of the order of 1–2 ns. In addi- tion, the fundamental role of atomic clocks in the GNSS positioning is illustrated. The paper presents a review of the current use of GNSS in the international timekeeping system, as well as illustrating the role of GNSS in disseminating time, and use the time and frequency metrology as fundamentals in the navigation service.

    1 ANCIENT RIDDLES OF SOLAR ECLIPSES. Asymmetric Astronomy Second Edition By IGOR N. TAGANOV and VILLE-V.E. SAARI Russian Academy of Sciences Saint Petersburg 2016 2 Taganov, Igor N., Saari, Ville-V.E. Ancient Riddles of Solar Eclipses. Asymmetric Astronomy. Second Edition – Saint Petersburg: TIN, 2016. – 110 p., 53 ill. Electronic Edition ISBN 978-5-902632-28-3 © Taganov, Igor N.; Saari, Ville-V.E. 2016 The book examines some of the mysteries of ancient astronomical treatises, for example, known since the Middle Ages the “Wednesday paradox”, and the history of the emergence and spread in the East of the belief that the eclipses of the Sun and the Moon, as well as all the Universe geometry are defined by a single sacred number 108. The calendar cycles of solar eclipses, considered in the book, confirming the old assumption of Indian and Chinese astronomers in 6-8 centuries, show that the probability of a total solar eclipse is larger in the spring and summer months, and the probability of annular eclipse, on the contrary, is larger in the autumn and winter months. Analysis of ancient chronicles of solar and lunar eclipses discovers evidence of gradual deceleration of time, which is confirmed by modern astronomical observations of the orbital movement of the Earth, the Moon, Mercury and Venus. The cosmological deceleration of time is a consequence of the irreversibility of “physical” time, which leads to the fact that all the characteristic time intervals are shorter in the past than in the future. In theoretical cosmology, the use of the concept of decelerating physical time allows to represent the key cosmological parameters of the observable Universe in the form of simple functions of the fundamental physical constants.

    The relationships between The International Astronomical Union (IAU) and time Nicole Capitaine IAU Representative in the CCU Time and astronomy: a few historical aspects Measurements of time before the adoption of atomic time - The time based on the Earth’s rotation was considered as being uniform until 1935. - Up to the middle of the 20th century it was determined by astronomical observations (sidereal time converted to mean solar time, then to Universal time). When polar motion within the Earth and irregularities of Earth’s rotation have been known (secular and seasonal variations), the astronomers: 1) defined and realized several forms of UT to correct the observed UT0, for polar motion (UT1) and for seasonal variations (UT2); 2) adopted a new time scale, the Ephemeris time, ET, based on the orbital motion of the Earth around the Sun instead of on Earth’s rotation, for celestial dynamics, 3) proposed, in 1952, the second defined as a fraction of the tropical year of 1900. Definition of the second based on astronomy (before the 13th CGPM 1967-1968) definition - Before 1960: 1st definition of the second The unit of time, the second, was defined as the fraction 1/86 400 of the mean solar day. The exact definition of "mean solar day" was left to astronomers (cf. SI Brochure). - 1960-1967: 2d definition of the second The 11th CGPM (1960) adopted the definition given by the IAU based on the tropical year 1900: The second is the fraction 1/31 556 925.9747 of the tropical year for 1900 January 0 at 12 hours ephemeris time.
