  • Extrasolar Planets and Their Host Stars
    Kaspar von Braun & Tabetha S. Boyajian Extrasolar Planets and Their Host Stars July 25, 2017 arXiv:1707.07405v1 [astro-ph.EP] 24 Jul 2017 Springer Preface In astronomy or indeed any collaborative environment, it pays to figure out with whom one can work well. From existing projects or simply conversations, research ideas appear, are developed, take shape, sometimes take a detour into some un- expected directions, often need to be refocused, are sometimes divided up and/or distributed among collaborators, and are (hopefully) published. After a number of these cycles repeat, something bigger may be born, all of which one then tries to simultaneously fit into one’s head for what feels like a challenging amount of time. That was certainly the case a long time ago when writing a PhD dissertation. Since then, there have been postdoctoral fellowships and appointments, permanent and adjunct positions, and former, current, and future collaborators. And yet, con- versations spawn research ideas, which take many different turns and may divide up into a multitude of approaches or related or perhaps unrelated subjects. Again, one had better figure out with whom one likes to work. And again, in the process of writing this Brief, one needs create something bigger by focusing the relevant pieces of work into one (hopefully) coherent manuscript. It is an honor, a privi- lege, an amazing experience, and simply a lot of fun to be and have been working with all the people who have had an influence on our work and thereby on this book. To quote the late and great Jim Croce: ”If you dig it, do it.

  • Globular Clusters, Though
    Appendix: What You’re Looking At Early astronomers divided astronomical objects into three main types: planets, stars, and what were called mists or clouds; in Latin, nebulae. Stars had fixed positions relative to one another, but the planets moved about, and so the ancient Greeks called them wanderers, plan¯et¯es. The changing positions of the planets were hard to explain, and none of the Solar System models proposed bytheancientGreeksorRomansadequatelyexplainedthingssuchasretrograde motion. But even though they didn’t understand why the planets moved about, the Greeks and Romans both placed huge value on interpreting the movements of the planets. This is the art of astrology, a practice that has developed independently in many different cultures around the world. That stars were in some way similar to the Sun was something the ancient Greeks had guessed at, but it wasn’t until the nineteenth century and the invention of spec- troscopy that scientists could demonstrate that the light produced by the Sun was the similar to that produced by the stars. Over time different types of stars were identi- fied, and it soon became clear that the Sun was a relatively small and ordinary star by cosmic standards, even though it is vitally important to us. Nebulae posed particular problems for astronomers prior to the invention of the telescope. To the naked eye all nebulae look alike, nothing more than faint, misty patches of light. Only with the telescope was the diversity of nebulae revealed, but while they could be seen to be morphologically different, astronomers of the early modern era didn’t understand that a planetary nebula is a very different thing to something like the Great Nebula in Andromeda, what we’d today recognize as a galaxy.

The plate is seen here compared to a modern image of the same field of view in daylight (this is the same church and the same trees). This is one of over 500,000 photographic plates produced by Harvard University during the late 19th and early 20th centuries.

  • Find a Planet Game Object of the Game
    Find a Planet Game Object of the Game: Find the most exoplanets Items needed: Game board, Dice Question List (one copy for the game master) Star list (copies for them and copy with # of planets for the game master) To play: At the start of each turn, a player must first answer a question. If they answer correctly, they can roll their die and move forward the number of spaces shown. If they land on a special space, they must follow the directions for that space. The first person to reach the finish line gets to observe 3 additional planets. The second player to reach the finish line gets to observe 2 additional planets. The third player to reach the finish line gets to observe 1 additional planet. Players finishing after this point do not observe additional planets. 55 Spaces of the Game Board: 19 regular spaces(no special instructions or symbols) 15 Observing spaces (solar system icon) 6 Move ahead spaces (1 or 2 stars on the space) 10 Telescope Time spaces (telescope icon) 5 Challenge spaces (symbol based on challenge) Observing Space: If you land on an observing space, you have the opportunity to observe a star and see if it has planets. You choose a star from the list to observe. The game master will tell you how many planets you detect. Move Ahead Spaces: If you land on a space with one or two stars on it, you move ahead on the board one space for every star. Telescope Time Spaces: If you land on a space with a telescope, you have to apply for and be granted research time on a telescope before you can proceed.
