Contents 1 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 2 Contents Part I Introduction 3 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 Astroquery is a set of tools for querying astronomical web forms and databases. There are two other packages with complimentary functionality as Astroquery: astropy.vo is in the Astropy core and pyvo is an Astropy affiliated package. They are more oriented to general virtual observatory discovery and queries, whereas Astroquery has web service specific interfaces. Check out the A Gallery of Queries for some nice examples. 5 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 6 Part II Installation 7 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 The latest version of astroquery can be conda installed while the latest and development versions can be pip installed or be downloaded directly from GitHub. 9 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 10 CHAPTER 1 Using pip $ pip install astroquery and the ‘bleeding edge’ master version: $ pip install https://github.com/astropy/astroquery/archive/master.zip 11 astroquery Documentation, Release 0.3.2 12 Chapter 1.

  • Determination of Stellar Parameters for M-Dwarf Stars: the NIR Approach
    Determination of stellar parameters for M-dwarf stars: the NIR approach by Daniel Thaagaard Andreasen A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Departamento de Fisica e Astronomia University of Porto c Copyright 2017 by Daniel Thaagaard Andreasen Dedication To Linnea, Henriette, Rico, and Else For always supporting me ii Acknowledgements When doing a PhD it is important to remember it is more a team effort than the work of an individual. This is something I learned quickly during the last four years. Therefore there are several people I would like to thank. First and most importantly are my two supervisors, Sérgio and Nuno. They were after me in the beginning of my studies because I was too shy to ask for help; something that I quickly learned I needed to do. They always had their door open for me and all my small questions. It goes without saying that I am thankful for all their guidance during my studies. However, what I am most thankful for is the freedom I have had to explorer paths and ideas on my own, and with them safely on the sideline. This sometimes led to failures and dead ends, but it make me grow as a researcher both by learning from my mistake, but also by prioritising my time. When I thank Sérgio and Nuno, my official supervisors, I also have to thank Elisa. She has been my third unofficial supervisor almost from the first day. Although she did not have any experience with NIR spectroscopy, she was never afraid of giving her opinion and trying to help.

  • Estimating Physical Properties of Confirmed Exoplanets: I
    Original Research Papers Fundamental Journals Open Access Journals International Journal of Fundamental Physical Sciences (IJFPS) ISSN: 2231-8186 IJFPS, Vol 11, No 1, pp 17-29 March 2021 B. Nikouravan https://doi.org/10.14331/ijfps.2021.330146 Estimating Physical Properties of Confirmed Exoplanets: I. Calculation of essential planetary properties-Possible M-R cataloging of exoplanets Bijan Nikouravan Department of Physics, Islamic Azad University (IAU), Varamin - Pishva Branch, Iran Received March 2021 Received in revised: April 2021 Published: April 2021 ABSTRACT The discovery of extrasolar planets outside our solar system and around other stars is now well underway. In the presented paper, calculations of some physical properties for confirmed exoplanets have been done. We have estimated physical properties such as the semi-major axis for potentially habitable exoplanets, the mass of planets by applying Kepler's third law around the mass of solar, Jupiter, and Earth-mass, stellar luminosity, habitability zone for the inner center and outer regions, radial velocity amplitude, planetary equilibrium temperature (PET) or effective radiation emission temperature and planet density. The mass- radius (MR) relationship of planets was investigated for potentially habitable exoplanets of three different groups of extrasolar planets: Subterran (Mars-size), Terran (Earth-size), and Superterran (Super-Earths or Mini-Neptunes); introduced in PHL, and found well coefficient values for each group. The minimum and maximum values for the mass and radius of exoplanets have been selected from 0.1 < 푀 < 10 푀⊕ and 0.4 < 푅 < 2.5 푅⊕ . The same MR relationship has also estimated the same properties for a larger number of confirmed exoplanets with a mass and radius of 0.1< M < 100 푀⊕ and 0.4 < 푅 < 15 푅⊕ , respectively, resulting their classification within 7 groups of mass and radius, with good coefficient values for each group.

  • High Angular Resolution Studies of the Structure and Evolution of Protoplanetary Disks
    High angular resolution studies of the structure and evolution of protoplanetary disks Thesis by Joshua A. Eisner In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy California Institute of Technology Pasadena, California 2005 (Defended May 17, 2005) ii c 2005 Joshua A. Eisner All Rights Reserved iii Acknowledgements The work presented in this thesis has benefited greatly from my interactions with many people. First and foremost are my advisors, Lynne Hillenbrand and Anneila Sargent. While working with two advisors is somewhat unusual, I found it it be an incredibly rewarding experience. Lynne and Anneila are both great scientists and teachers, and I learned a lot from them about the science of star and planet formation, as well as the techniques by which to study these subjects. I also fed off of their enthusiasm, and was often spurred onward by their suggestions and ideas. There are several other people I would like to thank for their roles in my intellectual and professional development. Shri Kulkarni, my first advisor at Caltech, taught me a great deal about how to think and write about science, and this knowledge continues to serve me well. Ben Lane also played an important role in this thesis, teaching me many of the details of near-infrared interferometry, and working many a night with me at PTI. Two of the chapters in this thesis are co-authored by John Carpenter and myself, testifying to the large role he has played in my research. It has been a pleasure working with John and having the opportunity to absorb some of his ideas and approach.

  • Effects of Rotation Arund the Axis on the Stars, Galaxy and Rotation of Universe* Weitter Duckss1
    Effects of Rotation Arund the Axis on the Stars, Galaxy and Rotation of Universe* Weitter Duckss1 1Independent Researcher, Zadar, Croatia *Project: https://www.svemir-ipaksevrti.com/Universe-and-rotation.html; (https://www.svemir-ipaksevrti.com/) Abstract: The article analyzes the blueshift of the objects, through realized measurements of galaxies, mergers and collisions of galaxies and clusters of galaxies and measurements of different galactic speeds, where the closer galaxies move faster than the significantly more distant ones. The clusters of galaxies are analyzed through their non-zero value rotations and gravitational connection of objects inside a cluster, supercluster or a group of galaxies. The constant growth of objects and systems is visible through the constant influx of space material to Earth and other objects inside our system, through percussive craters, scattered around the system, collisions and mergers of objects, galaxies and clusters of galaxies. Atom and its formation, joining into pairs, growth and disintegration are analyzed through atoms of the same values of structure, different aggregate states and contiguous atoms of different aggregate states. The disintegration of complex atoms is followed with the temperature increase above the boiling point of atoms and compounds. The effects of rotation around an axis are analyzed from the small objects through stars, galaxies, superclusters and to the rotation of Universe. The objects' speeds of rotation and their effects are analyzed through the formation and appearance of a system (the formation of orbits, the asteroid belt, gas disk, the appearance of galaxies), its influence on temperature, surface gravity, the force of a magnetic field, the size of a radius.

    Solar System analogues among exoplanetary systems Maria Lomaeva Lund Observatory Lund University ´´ 2016-EXA105 Degree project of 15 higher education credits June 2016 Supervisor: Piero Ranalli Lund Observatory Box 43 SE-221 00 Lund Sweden Populärvetenskaplig sammanfattning Människans intresse för rymden har alltid varit stort. Man har antagit att andra plan- etsystem, om de existerar, ser ut som vårt: med mindre stenplaneter i banor närmast stjärnan och gas- samt isjättar i de yttre banorna. Idag känner man till drygt 2 000 exoplaneter, d.v.s., planeter som kretsar kring andra stjärnor än solen. Man vet även att vissa av dem saknar motsvarighet i solsystemet, t. ex., heta jupitrar (gasjättar som har migrerat inåt och kretsar väldigt nära stjärnan) och superjordar (stenplaneter större än jorden). Därför blir frågan om hur unikt solsystemet är ännu mer intressant, vilket vi försöker ta reda på i det här projektet. Det finns olika sätt att detektera exoplaneter på men två av dem har gett flest resultat: transitmetoden och dopplerspektroskopin. Med transitmetoden mäter man minsknin- gen av en stjärnas ljus när en planet passerar framför den. Den metoden passar bäst för stora planeter med små omloppsbanor. Dopplerspektroskopin använder sig av Doppler effekten som innebär att ljuset utsänt från en stjärna verkar blåare respektive rödare när en stjärna förflyttar sig fram och tillbaka från observatören. Denna rörelse avslöjar att det finns en planet som kretsar kring stjärnan och påverkar den med sin gravita- tion. Dopplerspektroskopin är lämpligast för massiva planeter med små omloppsbanor. Under projektets gång har vi inte bara letat efter solsystemets motsvarigheter utan även studerat planetsystem som är annorlunda.

Despite numerous attempts, no exomoon has firmly been confirmed to date. New missions like CHEOPS aim to characterize previously detected exoplanets, and potentially to discover exomoons. In order to optimize search strategies, we need to determine those planets which are the most likely to host moons. We investigate the tidal evolution of hypothetical moon orbits in systems consisting of a star, one planet and one test moon. We study a few specific cases with ten billion years integration time where the evolution of moon orbits follows one of these three scenarios: (1) “locking”, in which the moon has a stable orbit on a long time scale (& 109 years); (2) “escape scenario” where the moon leaves the planet’s gravitational domain; and (3) “disruption scenario”, in which the moon migrates inwards until it reaches the Roche lobe and becomes disrupted by strong tidal forces.

    발표논문 초록 (태양계 및 외계행성과 생명) [구SS-07] FUV observation of the comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) with FIMS Yeo-Myeong Lim1, Kyoung Wook Min1, Paul D. Feldman2, Wonyong Han3, Jerry Edelstein4 1Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST), 2The Johns Hopkins University, 3Korea Astronomy and Space Science Institute (KASI), 4University of California, Berkeley We present the results of far-ultraviolet (FUV) observations of comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) obtained with Far-ultraviolet Imaging Spectrograph (FIMS) on board the Korean microsatellite STSAT-1, which operated at an altitude of 700 km in a sun-synchronous orbit. FIMS is a dual-channel imaging spectrograph (S channel 900-1150 Å, L channel 1350-1750 Å, λ/Δλ ~ 550) with large image fields of view (S: 4°.0×4'.6, L: 7°.5×4'.3, angular resolution 5'-10') optimized for the observation of diffuse emission of astrophysical radiation. Comet C/2001 Q4 (NEAT) was observed with a scanning survey mode when it was located around the perihelion between 8 and 15 May 2004. Several important emission lines were detected including S I (1425, 1474 Å), C I (1561, 1657 Å) and several emission lines of CO A1Π-X1Σ+ system in the L channel. Production rates of the notable molecules, such as C I, S I and CO, were estimated from the photon fluxes of these spectral lines and compared with previous observations. We compare the flux and the production rates in the radius of 3×105 km with 20×105 km from the central coma. We obtained L-channel image which have map size 5°×5°.

We discuss the implications on the future evolution of planetary systems orbiting red giant stars, if physical reactions involving the production of axions and the enhanced decay of plasmons into neutrinos, as a consequence of neutrinos having a magnetic dipole moment, are assumed to be happening simultaneously within the stellar core. Simulations were created by employing a numerical code to calculate the physical properties of stellar models from the main sequence to the end of the red giant phase, for stars with a mass range between 0:9 and 1:9 M and we analyze the most noticeable differences to canonical stellar evolution. Two exoplanet systems, known for harboring single red giant stars, were modelled by using the predicted stellar properties to calculate the temporal variation of the habitable zone and the orbital distance. Key words. Stars: red giants – Stars: stellar simulation – Stars: neutrino cooling – Particles: axions 1. Introduction has left the MS but, also, to provide a testing ground for physical theories beyond the stan- Currently, there are 4031 confirmed exoplan- dard model.

The stars exhibit RV variations with periods of 495 ± 3 days and 613 ± 6 days, respectively. These detections are part of the Search for Exoplanets around Northern Circumpolar Stars (SENS) survey using the fiber-fed Bohyunsan Observatory Echelle Spectrograph installed at the 1.8-m telescope of the Bohyunsan Optical Astronomy Observatory in Korea. The aim of the survey is to search for planetary or substellar companions. We argue that the periodic RV variations are not related to surface inhomogeneities; rather, Keplerian motions of planetary companions are the most likely interpretation.
