COMPETENCES : ● Utilisation du théorème de Pythagore ● Utilisation de Google Earth pour évaluer des distances à vol d'oiseau ● Recherche personnelle de données REALISATION : Il s'agit ici de mettre en application le théorème de Pythagore mais avec une vision terrestre dans un premier temps suite à un questionnement de l'élève puis dans un second temps de réutiliser la même démarche dans le cadre spatial de la visibilité d'un satellite. Fiche élève ____________________________________________________________________________ 1. Victor Hugo a écrit dans Les Châtiments : "Les horizons aux horizons succèdent […] : on avance toujours, on n’arrive jamais ". Face à la mer, vous voyez l'horizon à perte de vue. Mais "est-ce loin, l'horizon ?". D'après toi, jusqu'à quelle distance peux-tu voir si le temps est clair ? Réponse 1 : " Sans instrument, je peux voir jusqu'à .................. km " Réponse 2 : " Avec une paire de jumelles, je peux voir jusqu'à ............... km " 2. Nous allons maintenant calculer à l'aide du théorème de Pythagore la ligne d'horizon pour une hauteur H donnée. -

Homework 6 – Stellar Physics 1. Cygnus X-1 Is an X-Ray Source In
Homework 6 – Stellar Physics 1. Cygnus X-1 is an x-ray source in the constellation Cygnus that astrophysicists believe is a black hole. An artist’s impression is shown in Figure 1A. Figure 1A The mass of the black hole has been determined to be 14∙8 solar masses. (a) (i) State what is meant by the Schwarzschild radius of a black hole. (ii) Calculate the Schwarzchild radius of the black hole in Cygnus X-1. (b) The Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagram shown in Figure 1B shows the relationship between luminosity and surface temperature of stars. Figure 1B Zeta Cygni B and Chi Cygni are two stars in the constellation Cygnus. They are shown on the H-R diagram. Chi Cygni is more luminous than Zeta Cygni B. Describe two other differences between these stars. (c) Another star, Aldebaran B, is a distance of 6∙16 x 1017 m from the Earth. The luminosity of Aldebaran B is 2∙32 x 1025 W and its temperature is determined to be 3∙4 x 103 K. (i) Calculate the radius of Aldebaran B. (ii) Calculate the apparent brightness of Aldebaran B as observed from Earth. 1 2. Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagrams are widely used by physicists and astronomers to categorise stars. Figure 2A shows a simplified H-R diagram. Figure 2A (a) State what class of star Sirius B is. (b) Estimate the radius of Betelgeuse. (c) Ross 128 and Barnard’s Star have a similar temperature but Barnard’s Star has a slightly greater luminosity. Determine what other information this tells you about the two stars. -
Double and Multiple Star Measurements in the Northern Sky with a 10” Newtonian and a Fast CCD Camera in 2006 Through 2009
Vol. 6 No. 3 July 1, 2010 Journal of Double Star Observations Page 180 Double and Multiple Star Measurements in the Northern Sky with a 10” Newtonian and a Fast CCD Camera in 2006 through 2009 Rainer Anton Altenholz/Kiel, Germany e-mail: rainer.anton”at”ki.comcity.de Abstract: Using a 10” Newtonian and a fast CCD camera, recordings of double and multiple stars were made at high frame rates with a notebook computer. From superpositions of “lucky images”, measurements of 139 systems were obtained and compared with literature data. B/w and color images of some noteworthy systems are also presented. mented double stars, as will be described in the next Introduction section. Generally, I used a red filter to cope with By using the technique of “lucky imaging”, seeing chromatic aberration of the Barlow lens, as well as to effects can strongly be reduced, and not only the reso- reduce the atmospheric spectrum. For systems with lution of a given telescope can be pushed to its limits, pronounced color contrast, I also made recordings but also the accuracy of position measurements can be with near-IR, green and blue filters in order to pro- better than this by about one order of magnitude. This duce composite images. This setup was the same as I has already been demonstrated in earlier papers in used with telescopes under the southern sky, and as I this journal [1-3]. Standard deviations of separation have described previously [1-3]. Exposure times varied measurements of less than +/- 0.05 msec were rou- between 0.5 msec and 100 msec, depending on the tinely obtained with telescopes of 40 or 50 cm aper- star brightness, and on the seeing. -
Thursday, December 22Nd Swap Meet & Potluck Get-Together Next First

Next Meeting: Thursday, December 22nd Swap Meet & Potluck Get-Together Our December meeting will be a chance to visit and share a potluck dinner with fellow amateur astronomers, plus swap extra gear for new and exciting equipment from somebody else’s stash. Bring some food to share and any astronomy gear you’d like to sell, trade, or give away. We will have on hand some of the gear that was donated to the club this summer, including mirrors, lenses, blanks, telescope parts, and even entire telescopes. Come check out the bargains and visit with your fellow amateur astronomers in a relaxed evening before Christmas. We also encourage people to bring any new gear or projects they would like to show the rest of the club. The meeting is at 7:00 on December 22nd at EWEB’s Community Room, 500 E. 4th in Eugene. Next First Quarter Fridays: December 2nd and 30th Our November star party was clouded out, along with a good deal of the month afterward. If that sounds familiar, that’s because it is: I changed the date in the previous sentence from October to November and left the rest of the sentence intact. Yes, our autumn weather is predictable. Here’s hoping for a lucky break in the weather for our two December star parties. -

Note the very dark RIMA TENUIS (thin or fine fissure) dividing the North Polar Cap into two unequal parts along the 150° W - 325° W areographic meridians. Discovered by Schiaparelli during the Martian northern late spring in 1888, RIMA TENUIS was last well observed by M. Maggini in 1918. It unexpectedly appeared again across the North Polar Cap before the Martian northern summer solstice in February, 1980, when it was photographed for the first time by Mars observers in the ALPO.
