    Number 62 Spring 2017 TREASURE HUNT – 16 Where is this bridge (hint: it is not in the UK) and who designed it? Can you see the parabola and its tangent? Recent News 28,270 MILES - WAY TO GO! In October last year a record was set for the longest single road route ever worked out. The Travelling Salesperson Problem (TSP) was first posed in the 1930’s by Merrill Flood who was looking to solve a school bus routing problem in the US and it asks the following question: "Given a list of cities and the distances between each pair of cities, what is the shortest possible route that visits each city exactly once and returns to the origin city?" This is an example of an optimisation problem and is of immense importance to businesses who need to make deliveries to many places as the shortest route between the warehouse and drop off points generally means considerable saving in time and money. The TSP also has applications in computing DNA sequences, aiming telescopes and designing computer chip circuits. William Cook and a team of researchers at the University of Waterloo in Ontario, Canada calculated a round route that starts in Portland, Dorset and finishes in Weymouth, four miles away has at least 100 times more stops than the previous longest TSP. It links 24,727 hostelries in the UK. EDITORIAL SQUARE NUMBERS Welcome back to a new term and a new year!

SAMPSON. Cambridge, Pitt Press, 1900. 8vo. 88 pp. BY those who knew John Couch Adams best the exami­ nation of the manuscripts which he left and the publication of a selection from them has been looked forward to with much interest. His well known reluctance to publish any­ thing not in a complete form—"I have some finishing touches to put to it77—raised hopes that valuable results might be contained in the packets of neatly-written and dated papers which were turned over after his death for examination. It was known that he had been at work on various problems, in particular on that most difficult one— the theory of Jupiter's satellites, and on the theory of ter­ restrial magnetism. It was known, too, that Adams rarely attacked a problem without throwing a new light upon it or evolving some unexpected result. He had not fallen into the modern habit of making " preliminary communications,'' or, at least, if these were made they were verbal and did not find their way into print. Thus the publication of this volume was looked forward to with greater expectation than is usual in the case of other scientists who have lived to his age.

Not only were they born in the same year, e-mail: [email protected] but were also both senior wranglers, received the Smith’s Prizes and Copley medals, lived, thought and researched at Pembroke College, and shared an appreciation of Newton. On the other hand, Adams’ prediction of Neptune’s location had absolutely no influence on its discovery in Berlin. His lunar theory did not offer a physical explanation for the Moon’s motion. The origin of the Leonids was explained by others before him. Adams refused a knighthood and an appointment as Astronomer Royal. He was reluctant and slow to publish, but loved to derive the values of logarithms to 263 decimal places. The maths and calculations at which he so excelled mark one of the high points of celestial mechanics, but are rarely taught nowadays in undergraduate courses.

  • The Search for Planet X Transcript
    The Search for Planet X Transcript Date: Thursday, 22 October 2009 - 12:00AM Location: Museum of London The Search for Planet X Professor Ian Morison The Hunt for Planet X This is a story that spanned over 200 years: from the discovery that Uranus was not following its predicted orbit and was thus presumably being perturbed by another, as yet undiscovered planet, Neptune, followed by the search for what Percival Lowell called "Planet X" that would lie beyond Neptune (where X means unknown), and finally the search for a tenth planet beyond Pluto (where X means ten as well). As we shall see, the search for a tenth planet effectively ended in August 2006 when Pluto was demoted from its status as a planet and the number of planets in the solar system was reduced to eight. Uranus Uranus was the first planet to have been discovered in modern times and though, at magnitude ~5.5, it is just visible to the unaided eye without a telescope it would have been impossible to show that it was a planet rather than a star, save for its slow motion across the heavens. Even when telescopes had come into use, their relatively poor optics meant that it was charted as a star many times before it was recognised as a planet by William Herschel in 1781. William Herschel had come to England from Hanover in Germany where his father, Isaac, was an oboist in the band of the Hanoverian Foot Guards. As well as giving his third child, Freidrich Wilhelm Herschel, a thorough grounding in music he gave him an interest in the heavens.

  • American Astronomer
    Past, present, future- it is all in the sky Galileo Galilei(1564-1642) Physicist Mathematician Astronomer Philosopher Galileo Galilei Galileo was also named „the father of modern observational astronomy” , „the father of modern physics” , „the father of science” and „the father of modern science” Stephen Hawking said about him that he was responsible for the birth of modern science Galileo has also worked in applied science and technology, improving compass construction techniques. Galileo improved the telescopes The discovery of the satellites of the planet Jupiter One day while Galileo is looking at the planet Venus, using a telescope, he noticed 3 fixed, almost invisible stars. After a period of study, he realized that the stars orbit the planet. After a while he noticed the 4th star that Galileo called the Medici Stars. Today the stars are called the Galilean Satellites The study of Saturn's rings Galileo Galilei was the first to notice Saturn's rings. Initially he was believed that the rings were two celestial bodies. Repeated studies gave the astronomer a headache. However, he failed to identify them exactly. The study about the moon After the discovery of the largest satellites of Jupiter, he observed a series of special elements about the moon. He discovers the phenomenon of libration. Then, he guesses that there are mountains and craters on the moon, aș a result of the shadows he sees. The „discover” of Neptun After observing the Milky Way, Galileo looks through the telescope and unknowingly observes the planet Neptune. Without knowing it, he discovered a new planet. The heliocentric theory Most of Galileo's astronomical theories confirmed the heliocentric theory that the Earth and other planets spin around the Sun.

  • Tremoring Transits: Railways, the Royal Observatory and the Capitalist Challenge to Victorian Astronomical Science

GILLIN* Abstract. Britain’s nineteenth-century railway companies traditionally play a central role in histories of the spread of standard Greenwich time. This relationship at once seems to embody a productive relationship between science and capitalism, with regulated time essential to the formation of a disciplined industrial economy. In this narrative, it is not the state, but capitalistic private commerce which fashioned a national time system. However, as this article demonstrates, the collaboration between railway companies and the Royal Greenwich Observatory was far from harmonious. While railways did employ the accurate time the obser- vatory provided, they were also more than happy to compromise the astronomical institution’s ability to take the accurate celestial observations that such time depended on. Observing astro- nomical transits required the use of troughs of mercury to reflect images of stars, but the con- struction of a railway too near to the observatory threatened to cause vibrations which would make such readings impossible. Through debates over proposed railway lines near the observa- tory, it becomes clear how important government protection from private interests was to pre- serving astronomical standards.
