  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In
    Abasic requirement for studying the heavens is determining where in the sky things are. To specify sky positions, astronomers have developed several coordinate systems. Each uses a coordinate grid projected on to the celestial sphere, in analogy to the geographic coordinate system used on the surface of the Earth. The coordinate systems differ only in their choice of the fundamental plane, which divides the sky into two equal hemispheres along a great circle (the fundamental plane of the geographic system is the Earth's equator) . Each coordinate system is named for its choice of fundamental plane. The equatorial coordinate system is probably the most widely used celestial coordinate system. It is also the one most closely related to the geographic coordinate system, because they use the same fun­ damental plane and the same poles. The projection of the Earth's equator onto the celestial sphere is called the celestial equator. Similarly, projecting the geographic poles on to the celest ial sphere defines the north and south celestial poles. However, there is an important difference between the equatorial and geographic coordinate systems: the geographic system is fixed to the Earth; it rotates as the Earth does . The equatorial system is fixed to the stars, so it appears to rotate across the sky with the stars, but of course it's really the Earth rotating under the fixed sky. The latitudinal (latitude-like) angle of the equatorial system is called declination (Dec for short) . It measures the angle of an object above or below the celestial equator. The longitud inal angle is called the right ascension (RA for short).

The origin of the material ionised by the white dwarf is very different in these two scenarios, and it complicates the understanding of the morphologies of planetary nebulae. Aims. The physical properties, structure, and dynamics of the bipolar nebulae, M 2−9, Mz 3, and Hen 2−104, are investigated in detail with the aim of understanding their nature, shaping mechanisms, and evolutionary history. Both a morpho-kinematic study and a spectroscopic analysis, can be used to more accurately determine the kinematics and nature of each nebula. Methods. Long-slit optical echelle spectra are used to investigate the morpho-kinematics of M 2−9, Mz 3, and Hen 2−104. The morpho-kinematic modelling software SHAPE is used to constrain both the morphology and kinematics of each nebula by means of detailed 3D models.

April Deklinationsbereich: -64° ... -30° Fläche am Himmel: 1060° 2 Benachbarte Sternbilder: Ant Car Cir Cru Hya Lib Lup Mus Vel Mythologie und Geschichte: Die Zentauren waren in der griechischen Mythologie meist wilde Mischwesen mit dem Oberkörper eines Menschen bis zur Hüfte, darunter dem Leib eines Pferdes. Der Zentaur Chiron aber war dagegen sehr weise und besonders in der Medizin, Musik und Botanik bewandert. Er war der Lehrer des Achill und des Asklepios. Chiron war auch der Beschützer vieler Helden und hat angeblich die Sternbilder "erfunden". Selbst an den Himmel versetzt wurde er, nachdem ihn Herkules aus Versehen mit einem vergifteten Pfeil getroffen hatte (diese Erklärung wird manchmal auch für Sagittarius überliefert, einen anderen "himmlischen" Zentauren). Am Himmel soll er den in einen Wolf verwandelten König Lykaon (Lupus ) in Schach halten. Das Sternbild war den Griechen bekannt, da es infolge der Präzession der Erdachse vor 2000-3000 Jahren vom Mittelmeerraum, Unterägypten und Vorderasien aus voll gesehen werden konnte. [bk7 ] Sternbild: Centaurus ist ein ausgedehntes Sternbild mit ungewöhnlich vielen hellen Sternen und einer Fläche von 1060 Quadratgrad, südlich von Hydra . Das Zentrum kulminiert jeweils etwa am 6. April um Mitternacht. Zwischen den Hufen des Zentauren befindet sich das Kreuz des Südens . [bk9 , bk15 ] Interessante Objekte:

  • On the Study of Atomic and Molecular Processes Affecting Astrophysical
    On the study of atomic and molecular processes affecting Astrophysical Plasma using high-resolution optical and UV spectroscopy by Ahmad Nemer A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Auburn, Alabama August 3, 2019 Keywords: Recombination, evidence, dissociation Copyright 2019 by Ahmad Nemer Approved by Stuart Loch, Chair, Associate Professor of Physics Allen Landers, Professor of Physics Mike Fogle, Associate Professor of Physics Mitch Pindzola, Professor of Physics Laurent Guillaume, Associate Professor of Physics Evangelos Miliordos, Assistant Professor of Chemistry Abstract Rydberg Enhanced Recombination (RER), a recombination process related to dielec- tronic recombination in which electrons are captured into energy states below the ionization threshold, has been theoretically predicted to occur in low temperature plasmas. First evi- dence of RER is shown to occur in astrophysical environments, using high resolution optical spectra of planetary nebulae and a UV spectrum of symbiotic stars. RER can significantly impact diagnosed ionic and elemental abundances of important astrophysical species, with implications for cosmological models. The project underlines the importance of including this process in models of photoionized plasmas. ii Acknowledgments This work was funded by a NASA grant to Auburn University ().

  • Culmination of a Constellation
    Culmination of a Constellation Over any night, stars and constellations in the sky will appear to move from east to west due to the Earth’s rotation on its axis. A constellation will culminate (reach its highest point in the sky for your location) when it centres on the meridian - an imaginary line that runs across the sky from north to south and also passes through the zenith (the point high in the sky directly above your head). For example: When to Observe Constellations The taBle shows the approximate time (AEST) constellations will culminate around the middle (15th day) of each month. Constellations will culminate 2 hours earlier for each successive month. Note: add an hour to the given time when daylight saving time is in effect. The time “12” is midnight. Sunrise/sunset times are rounded off to the nearest half an hour.

Bordeaux, CNRS, UMR 5804, 33615 Pessac, France Received 26 May 2017 / Accepted 29 January 2018 ABSTRACT Context. The Tycho-Gaia Astrometric Solution (TGAS) subset of the first Gaia catalogue contains an unprecedented sample of proper motions and parallaxes for two million stars brighter than G 12 mag. Aims. We take advantage of the full astrometric solution available∼ for those stars to identify the members of known open clusters and compute mean cluster parameters using either TGAS or the fourth U.S. Naval Observatory CCD Astrograph Catalog (UCAC4) proper motions, and TGAS parallaxes. Methods. We apply an unsupervised membership assignment procedure to select high probability cluster members, we use a Bayesian/Markov Chain Monte Carlo technique to fit stellar isochrones to the observed 2MASS JHKS magnitudes of the member stars and derive cluster parameters (age, metallicity, extinction, distance modulus), and we combine TGAS data with spectroscopic radial velocities to compute full Galactic orbits.

  • Deep Sky Explorer Atlas
    Deep Sky Explorer Atlas Reference manual Star charts for the southern skies Compiled by Auke Slotegraaf and distributed under an Attribution-Noncommercial 3.0 Creative Commons license. Version 0.20, January 2009 Deep Sky Explorer Atlas Introduction Deep Sky Explorer Atlas Reference manual The Deep Sky Explorer’s Atlas consists of 30 wide-field star charts, from the south pole to declination +45°, showing all stars down to 8th magnitude and over 1 000 deep sky objects. The design philosophy of the Atlas was to depict the night sky as it is seen, without the clutter of constellation boundary lines, RA/Dec fiducial markings, or other labels. However, constellations are identified by their standard three-letter abbreviations as a minimal aid to orientation. Those wishing to use charts showing an array of invisible lines, numbers and letters will find elsewhere a wide selection of star charts; these include the Herald-Bobroff Astroatlas, the Cambridge Star Atlas, Uranometria 2000.0, and the Millenium Star Atlas. The Deep Sky Explorer Atlas is very much for the explorer. Special mention should be made of the excellent charts by Toshimi Taki and Andrew L. Johnson. Both are free to download and make ideal complements to this Atlas. Andrew Johnson’s wide-field charts include constellation figures and stellar designations and are highly recommended for learning the constellations. They can be downloaded from http://www.cloudynights.com/item.php?item_id=1052 Toshimi Taki has produced the excellent “Taki’s 8.5 Magnitude Star Atlas” which is a serious competitor for the commercial Uranometria atlas. His atlas has 149 charts and is available from http://www.asahi-net.or.jp/~zs3t-tk/atlas_85/atlas_85.htm Suggestions on how to use the Atlas Because the Atlas is distributed in digital format, its pages can be printed on a standard laser printer as needed.
