  • Messier Objects
    Messier Objects From the Stocker Astroscience Center at Florida International University Miami Florida The Messier Project Main contributors: • Daniel Puentes • Steven Revesz • Bobby Martinez Charles Messier • Gabriel Salazar • Riya Gandhi • Dr. James Webb – Director, Stocker Astroscience center • All images reduced and combined using MIRA image processing software. (Mirametrics) What are Messier Objects? • Messier objects are a list of astronomical sources compiled by Charles Messier, an 18th and early 19th century astronomer. He created a list of distracting objects to avoid while comet hunting. This list now contains over 110 objects, many of which are the most famous astronomical bodies known. The list contains planetary nebula, star clusters, and other galaxies. - Bobby Martinez The Telescope The telescope used to take these images is an Astronomical Consultants and Equipment (ACE) 24- inch (0.61-meter) Ritchey-Chretien reflecting telescope. It has a focal ratio of F6.2 and is supported on a structure independent of the building that houses it. It is equipped with a Finger Lakes 1kx1k CCD camera cooled to -30o C at the Cassegrain focus. It is equipped with dual filter wheels, the first containing UBVRI scientific filters and the second RGBL color filters. Messier 1 Found 6,500 light years away in the constellation of Taurus, the Crab Nebula (known as M1) is a supernova remnant. The original supernova that formed the crab nebula was observed by Chinese, Japanese and Arab astronomers in 1054 AD as an incredibly bright “Guest star” which was visible for over twenty-two months. The supernova that produced the Crab Nebula is thought to have been an evolved star roughly ten times more massive than the Sun.

SCHNEIDER** Max-Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, Halle / Saale, Germany *Technical University of Berlin, Berlin, Germany **Humboldt University of Berlin, Germany Quantum Dot Structures in the InGaAs System Investigated by TEM Techniques Dedicated to Prof. Dr. J. Heydenreich on the occasion of his 70th birthday Quantum dot structures have gained increasing interest in materials science due to their special electrical and optical behavior. A combination of electron-optical techniques is applied to correlate such properties with the morphology and structure of quantum dots in the InGaAs system. TEM techniques, e.g. imaging by conventional diffraction contrast, by high-resolution TEM and by energy filtering (EFTEM) are focused on the determination of parameters, like shape and size of islands, their chemical composition and the complex lattice strain fields. An image contrast analysis in terms of shape and strain demands the application of image simulation techniques based on the dynamical theory and on structure models refined by molecular dynamics or molecular static energy minimization. Keywords: : quantum dots, InGaAs, Transmission Electron Microscopy, crystal structure (Received May 4, 2000; Accepted July 1, 2000) 1. Introduction The investigation of semiconducting nanostructures is especially focused on the properties of so-called quantum dots (QD), which are embedded in a different semiconducting bulk or in other materials. The possibility of arranging such particles or ”dots” into complex arrays implies many opportunities for scientific investigations and technological applications. Over the last 10 years, various ways have been applied successfully to create semiconductor particles of several 10 nm in size, evidencing special properties to be different from the bulk behavior (for an overview see, e.g., MRS Bulletin).

  • The Midnight Sky: Familiar Notes on the Stars and Planets, Edward Durkin, July 15, 1869 a Good Way to Start – Find North
    The expression "dog days" refers to the period from July 3 through Aug. 11 when our brightest night star, SIRIUS (aka the dog star), rises in conjunction* with the sun. Conjunction, in astronomy, is defined as the apparent meeting or passing of two celestial bodies. TAAS Fabulous Fifty A program for those new to astronomy Friday Evening, July 20, 2018, 8:00 pm All TAAS and other new and not so new astronomers are welcome. What is the TAAS Fabulous 50 Program? It is a set of 4 meetings spread across a calendar year in which a beginner to astronomy learns to locate 50 of the most prominent night sky objects visible to the naked eye. These include stars, constellations, asterisms, and Messier objects. Methodology 1. Meeting dates for each season in year 2018 Winter Jan 19 Spring Apr 20 Summer Jul 20 Fall Oct 19 2.

  • The Vienna University Observatory
    The Vienna University Observatory THOMAS POSCH Abstract The Vienna University Observatory, housing what was once the world’s largest refracting telescope, still serves as a centre of astronomical research and teaching. In 1819, Johann Josef von Littrow (1781-1840) became Professor of Mathematics and Astronomy at the University of Vienna. He tried to move the University Observatory - which was at that time still located at the city centre - to the outskirts, but did not succeed. After his death, his son Carl Ludwig von Littrow (1811-1877) became director of the Observatory. The total solar eclipse which took place on July 8, 1842, in his first year as director, made astronomy very popular and helped promote new investment. In 1872, a large site was acquired for a new observatory on a hill called "Türkenschanze", near the village of Währing outside Vienna. Building began in 1874. The architects of the imposing new building were Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer, both specialists in theatre buildings. Their concept was to combine observatory and apartments on a cross-shaped plan, which was unusually large for its day; 101 m length and 73 m width. The big refractor telescope (with an aperture of 27 inches, or 68 cm and a focal length of 10.5 m) was then the largest refracting telescope in the world. The celebratory opening took place in 1883. The excellent instrumentation made possible numerous remarkable Fig. 1 - Georg von Peuerbach’s ‘Theoricae novae planetarum’, discoveries in the fields of binary stars, Nuremberg 1473 asteroids and comets. However, the Währing district quickly became attractive to the Viennese upper classes and the observatory was soon part of an illuminated urban area.
