  • Al-Sūfī's Book of the Images of the Fixed Stars and Its Influence On
    Al-Sūfī’s Book of the Images of the Fixed Stars and its Influence on Islamic and European Celestial Cartography Robert H. van Gent Institute for History and Foundations of Science Utrecht University, The Netherlands Biographical Sketch of al-Sūfī Abū al-Husayn ‘Abd al-Rahmānibn‘Umar al-Sūfī was born in Rayy (near Tehrān) on 7 December 903 [14 Muharram 291 AH] and died in Baghdād on 25 May 986 [13 Muharram 376 AH]. Al-Sūfī wrote on astrology, astronomy, alchemy and mathematics. His best-known work is the KitābSuwaral- Kawākib al-Thābitah (“Book of the Images of the Fixed Stars”) which he completed in Shīrāz around 964. Originally written in Arabic, it was later translated into Persian and also into Latin. He also wrote a comprehensive treatise on the astrolabe in 1760 chapters which only survives in a shortened version in 170 chapters. The lunar crater Azophi and the minor planet 12621 Alsufi commemorate his achievements in astronomy.

  • Monthly Observer's Challenge
    MONTHLY OBSERVER’S CHALLENGE Las Vegas Astronomical Society Compiled by: Roger Ivester, Boiling Springs, North Carolina & Fred Rayworth, Las Vegas, Nevada With special assistance from: Rob Lambert, Las Vegas, Nevada OCTOBER 2014 Introduction The purpose of the observer’s challenge is to encourage the pursuit of visual observing. It is open to everyone that is interested, and if you are able to contribute notes, drawings, or photographs, we will be happy to include them in our monthly summary. Observing is not only a pleasure, but an art. With the main focus of amateur astronomy on astrophotography, many times people tend to forget how it was in the days before cameras, clock drives, and GOTO. Astronomy depended on what was seen through the eyepiece. Not only did it satisfy an innate curiosity, but it allowed the first astronomers to discover the beauty and the wonderment of the night sky. Before photography, all observations depended on what the astronomer saw in the eyepiece, and how they recorded their observations. This was done through notes and drawings and that is the tradition we are stressing in the observers challenge. By combining our visual observations with our drawings, and sometimes, astrophotography (from those with the equipment and talent to do so), we get a unique understanding of what it is like to look through an eyepiece, and to see what is really there. The hope is that you will read through these notes and become inspired to take more time at the eyepiece studying each object, and looking for those subtle details that you might never have noticed before.

La precisione nei calcoli è quindi quella tipica per questo tipo di software, ossia sufficiente per gli usi dell’astrofilo medio. Tutti gli eventi sono stati calcolati per le coordinate di Roma (Lat. 41° 52’ 48” N, Long. 12° 30’ 00” E) e gli orari espressi (tranne laddove altrimenti specificato) in tempo universale. 2 Almanacco Astronomico 2002 – Calendario del 2002 Calendario del 2002 January February March Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa 1 2 3 4 5 1 2 1 2 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 27 28 29 30 31 24 25 26 27 28 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 April May June Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa Su Mo Tu We Th Fr Sa 1 2 3 4 5 6 1 2 3 4 1 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 28 29 30 26 27 28 29 30 31 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 July August September Su Mo Tu We

  • Gamma Cassiopeiae, October 2001 Variable Star of the Month Variable Star of the Month
    AAVSO: Gamma Cassiopeiae, October 2001 Variable Star Of The Month Variable Star Of The Month October, 2001: Gamma Cassiopeiae Gamma Cassiopeiae and the Be Stars Between 1863 and 1867, before the introduction of photography, Father Angelo Secchi (1818-1878) carried out a remarkable study of the spectra of some 4000 stars, using a visual spectroscope on the telescope of the Collegio Romano -- the forerunner of today's Vatican Observatory. He noted the absorption-line (dark-line) spectra of the stars, and developed a classification scheme which eventually led to the modern-day "Harvard system": OBAFGKM, in order of decreasing temperature. He also noted, in a 1867 publication, that Gamma Cas showed emission in the hydrogen-beta (H-beta) absorption line. Thus began the mystery of the Be stars: B to indicate the temperature class, and e to indicate the emission lines. Father Angelo Secchi made many important contributions to Be stars are now defined as non-supergiant stars with "surface" the field of astronomy. In temperatures between 10,000 and 30,000 K, which have shown addition to developing a scheme for stellar spectral emission lines in their spectra on at least one occasion. About 20 classification, Secchi also percent of B stars are in fact Be stars. As the definition suggests, furthered the area of solar physics with his studies of solar the spectra of Be stars can vary with time. The behavior of Gamma prominences and his proposal Cas over the years displays just this. From 1866 to 1942, Gamma of a gaseous solar core. Cas was relatively quiescent, with moderate to strong emission lines undergoing small variations from 1866 to 1932.
