  • A Basic Requirement for Studying the Heavens Is Determining Where In

    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).

    TRANSIT The Newsletter of 05 January 2009 Hubble caught Saturn with the edge-on rings in 1996. Image courtesy Eric Karkoschka (UoA) Front Page Image - Saturn, like the Earth, is tilted on its axis compared to the plane of its orbit, being off vertical by 26.7 degrees. Saturn’s rings are aligned with its equator so that means that roughly twice every orbit of Saturn we on Earth see the rings edge on. We pass through the ring plane in September 2009 but at that time Saturn is on the other side of the Sun, so now is the best time to view Saturn in Leo with the almost disappeared rings when they are inclined at 0.8 degrees to our line of sight. The next ring plane crossing is March 2025 Last meeting : 12 December 2008. “The Large Hadron Collider” by Dr Peter Edwards of Durham University. Dr Edwards proved he was a skilled public communicator when he initially launched into a short history of particle physics – we all understood what he was talking about! After then explaining what the LHC was actually looking for and how their massive detectors work he explained the problems caused by the unfortunate accident when firing up the LHC for the first time. The prognosis for future collisions seems to have a varying date but perhaps the 2010 date is the most likely. We wish Dr Edwards and his LHC colleagues the best of luck in achieving an early target date. Next meeting : 09 January 2009 – Members night. The meeting will start with the Society 2009 AGM and follow on with short talks presented by members of the Society.

This book can be referenced as follows: Reipurth, B. 2016, http://ifa.hawaii.edu/SP1 i FOREWORD I first learned about George Herbig’s work when I was a teenager. I grew up in Denmark in the 1950s, a time when Europe was healing the wounds after the ravages of the Second World War. Already at the age of 7 I had fallen in love with astronomy, but information was very hard to come by in those days, so I scraped together what I could, mainly relying on the local library. At some point I was introduced to the magazine Sky and Telescope, and soon invested my pocket money in a subscription. Every month I would sit at our dining room table with a dictionary and work my way through the latest issue. In one issue I read about Herbig-Haro objects, and I was completely mesmerized that these objects could be signposts of the formation of stars, and I dreamt about some day being able to contribute to this field of study.
