(A Milyen a Nap röntgen fényben? című cikkünkhöz) Bevezető A Magyar Csillagászati Egyesület által kiadott csillagászati évkönyvek sorozatának ötödik tagját bocsátottuk útjára ezzel a kötettel. Úgy tűnik, az évkönyv valóban hasznos munkaeszközévé vált a szakcsillagászoknak, észlelő amatőröknek, ismeretterjesztőknek, pedagógusoknak, de haszonnal forgatja mindenki, aki a csillagászat iránt legalább egy kevéssé érdeklődik. Az öt évfolyamot egymás mellé téve példányszámban, terjedelemben, külső megjelenésben és — reményeink szerint — tartalomban is lemérhető a haladás. Ebben nagy szerepe van a számítástechnika szédületes fejlődésének. Az évkönykészítés technikai hátteréről a Számítástechnika a csillagászatban című cikk végén található rövid áttekintés. A kiadáshoz az idén mindössze egy pályázaton kaptunk anyagi támogatást. A Fő­ városi Önkormányzat Tudományos Alapjának segítsége sajnos csak egy részét fedezi a nyomdai költségek, a könyvterjesztői jutalékok és az egyéb elkerülhetetlen kiadások nö­ vekedésének. Emiatt az árat a tavalyihoz képest nagyobb mértékben kellett emelnünk. Azt azonban nyugodtan állíthatjuk, hogy az évkönyv a hasonló jellegű és küllemű ki­ adványok között még mindig olcsónak számít. Az áremelés részbeni ellensúlyozására a Magyar Csillagászati Egyesület a tagjainak az éves tagdíj fejében, illetményként juttatja el az évkönyvet. Ahhoz, hogy az árat a további években is elfogadható szinten tudjuk tartani, támogatókra és több fizetett hirdetésre lenne szükség. Ezen a téren köszönettel fogadjuk az Olvasó ötleteit és segítségét is. Használati útmutató Az évkönyv első felében kaptak helyet a naptári alapadatok, havonkénti csoportosí­ tásban: a Nap és Hold keltének és nyugtának időpontja, a hónap fontosabb csillagászati eseményei, a bolygók láthatósága, a hónap csillagos égboltja. Ezt követik azok az infor­ mációk, amelyek csillagászati számításokhoz és az amatőr észlelőmunkához szükségesek: a Nap, a Hold és a bolygók koordinátái és fizikai adatai, valamint a különféle segéd­ táblázatok. Végül pedig a speciális észlelési területeken használható előrejelzéseket és adatokat találjuk: fogyatkozásokról, fedésekről, kisbolygókról, meteorrajokról, üstökö­ sökről, változócsillagokról és egyéb témákról. A táblázatok és adatok Magyarország közepes földrajzi koordinátáira vonatkoznak: földrajzi hosszúság A = +19?0 földrajzi szélesség ip = +47?5 Minthogy hazánk kiterjedése nem nagy, az évkönyv táblázatai jó közelítéssel hasz­ nálhatók az egész ország területén. A Föld forgásával kapcsolatos időadatoknál egy fok földrajzi hosszúságkülönbség 4 időperc eltérést jelent. A kelési, delelési és nyugvási idő­ pontok esetében tehát a 19° hosszúsági körtől keletre fokonként négy percet le kell vonni a táblázat időadatából, nyugat felé pedig ugyanennyit hozzá kell adni. Pontos észlelések­ nél természetesen a koordinátakülönbségből adódó eltéréseket megfelelő számításokkal kell figyelembe venni. 5 Az időpont adatok többsége világidőben (UT) szerepel, az egyéb számértékek pe­ dig általában a megadott napon 0h UT-re vonatkoznak. Erre a táblázatok jobb felső sarkában elhelyezett UT ill. 0h U T jelzés is utal. A Naptár rész minden időpont adatát, valamint a bolygók kelési, delelési és nyugvási

DOI: 10.1051/0004-6361/201732271 vii Abstract In hierarchical models of galaxy formation, stellar tidal streams are expected around most galaxies. Although these features may provide useful diagnostics of the LCDM model, their observational properties remain poorly constrained. Statistical analysis of the counts and properties of such features is of interest for a direct comparison against results from numeri- cal simulations. In this work, we aim to study systematically the frequency of occurrence and other observational properties of tidal features around nearby galaxies.

  • History Committee Report NC185: Robotic Telescope— Page | 1 Suggested Celestial Targets with Historical Canadian Resonance
    RASC History Committee Report NC185: Robotic Telescope— Page | 1 Suggested Celestial Targets with Historical Canadian Resonance 2018 September 16 Robotic Telescope—Suggested Celestial Targets with Historical Canadian Resonance ABSTRACT: At the request of the Society’s Robotic Telescope Team, the RASC History Committee has compiled a list of over thirty (30) suggested targets for imaging with the RC Optical System (Ritchey- Chrétien f/9 0.4-metre class, with auxiliary wide-field capabilities), chosen from mainly “deep sky objects Page | 2 which are significant in that they are linked to specific events or people who were noteworthy in the 150 years of Canadian history”. In each numbered section the information is arranged by type of object, with specific targets suggested, the name or names of the astronomers (in bold) the RASC Robotic Telescope image is intended to honour, and references to select relevant supporting literature. The emphasis throughout is on Canadian astronomers (in a generous sense), and RASC connections. NOTE: The nature of Canadian observational astronomy over most of that time changed slowly, but change it did, and the accepted celestial targets, instrumental capabilities, and recording methods are frequently different now than they were in 1868, 1918, or 1968, and those differences can startle those with modern expectations looking for analogues to present/contemporary practice. The following list attempts to balance those expectations, as well as the commemoration of professionals and amateurs from our past. 1. OBJECT: Detail of lunar terminator (any feature). ACKNOWLEDGES: 18th-19th century practical astronomy (astronomy of place & time), the practitioners of which used lunar observation (shooting lunars) to determine longitude.

  • VV Compact Groups of Galaxies&Q
    PRINCETON UNIVERSITY Department of Astrophysical Sciences Final Report for grant UAG-8363 "V-V Compact Groups of Galaxies" for National Aeronautics and Space Administration Marshall Space Flight Center By: Neta A. Bahcall Principal Investigator June 1984 X-ray Emission from Stephen's Quintet and Other Compact Groups by Neta A. Bahcall Space Telescope Science Institute D. E. Harris High Energy Astrophysics, Center for Astrophysics Herbert J. Rood Box 1330, Princeton, NJ 08542 Abstract A search for X-ray emission from five compact groups of galaxies with the Einstein Observatory revealed detections from three groups. Soft, extended X- ray emission was observed in Stephen's Quintet which is most likely caused by hot intracluster gas. This provides evidence for dynamical interaction among the group galaxies. X-ray emission from the group Arp 330 may also originate in hot intracluster gas. Stephen's Quintet and Arp 330 have the largest velocity dispersions among the groups studied suggesting a correlation between high velocity and the release (or properties) of hot gas. X-ray emission from Arp 318 may originate in its member galaxies. I. Introduction The X-ray emission detected from rich clusters of galaxies reveals a hot metal-enriched intracluster medium (ICM) that probably originated from processed gas swept-out of galaxies. This provides direct evidence for the occurrence of interactions among cluster galaxies. Since dynamical interactions depend on the galaxy (and/or ICM) density, they are expected to be important in the groups of highest known galaxy density, such as Stephen's Quintet. While the high galaxy densities suggest a short crossing-time and a strong dynamical interaction, the existence of numerous compact groups, each having a significant spiral fraction has provoked controversy regarding the reality of the compact groups, their age,__ and their state of dynamical evolution.

  • X-Ray Spectral Variability of Seyfert 2 Galaxies
    Astronomy & Astrophysics manuscript no. Seyfert c ESO 2018 February 27, 2018 X-ray spectral variability of Seyfert 2 galaxies Hern´andez-Garc´ıa, L.1; Masegosa, J.1; Gonz´alez-Mart´ın, O.2; M´arquez, I.1 1 Instituto de Astrof´ısica de Andaluc´ıa, CSIC, Glorieta de la Astronom´ıa, s/n, 18008 Granada, Spain e-mail: [email protected] 2 Centro de radioastronom´ıa y Astrof´ısica (CRyA-UNAM), 3-72 (Xangari), 8701, Morelia, Mexico Received XXXX; accepted YYYY ABSTRACT Context. Variability across the electromagnetic spectrum is a property of active galactic nuclei (AGN) that can help constrain the physical properties of these galaxies. Nonetheless, the way in which the changes happen and whether they occur in the same way in every AGN are still open questions. Aims. This is the third in a series of papers with the aim of studying the X-ray variability of different families of AGN. The main purpose of this work is to investigate the variability pattern(s) in a sample of optically selected Seyfert 2 galaxies. Methods. We use the 26 Seyfert 2s in the V´eron-Cetty and V´eron catalog with data available from Chandra and/or XMM–Newton public archives at different epochs, with timescales ranging from a few hours to years. All the spectra of the same source were simultaneously fitted, and we let different parameters vary in the model. Whenever possible, short-term variations from the analysis of the light curves and/or long-term UV flux variations were studied. We divided the sample into Compton-thick and Compton-thin candidates to account for the degree of obscuration.

  • Soft X-Ray Properties of a Spectroscopically Selected Sample of Interacting and Isolated Seyfert Galaxies?

F. Pfefferkorn1, Th. Boller1, and P. Rafanelli2 1 Max-Planck-Institut f¨ur extraterrestrische Physik, Postfach 1312, 85741 Garching, Germany 2 Department of Astronomy, University of Padova, Vicolo Osservatorio 5, 35122 Padova, Italy Received 12 October 2000 / Accepted 4 January 2001 Abstract. We present a catalogue of ROSAT detected sources in the sample of spectroscopically selected Seyfert 1 and Seyfert 2 galaxies of Rafanelli et al. (1995). The catalogue contains 102 Seyfert 1 and 36 Seyfert 2 galaxies. The identification is based on X-ray contour maps overlaid on optical images taken from the Digitized Sky Survey. We have derived the basic spectral and timing properties of the X-ray detected Seyfert galaxies. For Seyfert 1 galaxies a strong correlation between photon index and X-ray luminosity is detected. We confirm the presence of generally steeper X-ray continua in narrow-line Seyfert 1 galaxies (NLS1s) compared to broad-line Seyfert 1 galaxies. Seyfert 2 galaxies show photon indices similar to those of NLS1s. Whereas a tendency for an increasing X-ray luminosity with increasing interaction strength is found for Seyfert 1 galaxies, such a correlation is not found for Seyfert 2 galaxies. For Seyfert 1 galaxies we found also a strong correlation for increasing far-infrared luminosity with increasing interaction strength. Both NLS1s and Seyfert 2 galaxies show the highest values of far-infrared luminosity compared to Seyfert 1 galaxies, suggesting that NLS1s and Seyfert 2 galaxies host strong (circumnuclear) star formation.

  • Making a Sky Atlas
    Appendix A Making a Sky Atlas Although a number of very advanced sky atlases are now available in print, none is likely to be ideal for any given task. Published atlases will probably have too few or too many guide stars, too few or too many deep-sky objects plotted in them, wrong- size charts, etc. I found that with MegaStar I could design and make, specifically for my survey, a “just right” personalized atlas. My atlas consists of 108 charts, each about twenty square degrees in size, with guide stars down to magnitude 8.9. I used only the northernmost 78 charts, since I observed the sky only down to –35°. On the charts I plotted only the objects I wanted to observe. In addition I made enlargements of small, overcrowded areas (“quad charts”) as well as separate large-scale charts for the Virgo Galaxy Cluster, the latter with guide stars down to magnitude 11.4. I put the charts in plastic sheet protectors in a three-ring binder, taking them out and plac- ing them on my telescope mount’s clipboard as needed. To find an object I would use the 35 mm finder (except in the Virgo Cluster, where I used the 60 mm as the finder) to point the ensemble of telescopes at the indicated spot among the guide stars. If the object was not seen in the 35 mm, as it usually was not, I would then look in the larger telescopes. If the object was not immediately visible even in the primary telescope – a not uncommon occur- rence due to inexact initial pointing – I would then scan around for it.
