Astronomical research with a small telescope (20 cm – 40 cm) has always been a challenging problem. The invention of CCD cameras
and personal computers has now put this question to past as small telescopes can do good and practicle science. This paper
describes the use of small telescope in the study of eclipsing binary stars. Binary stars play an important role as astrophysical
laboratories in our quest to understand the evolution and structure of stars. The most useful aspects of research with a small
telescope in binary star research is; 1) as a viable teaching laboratory for begining students 2) to teach and learn the fundamental
observational techniques that are common to many types of astronomical research areas 3) as a starting point to initiate research
programs in observational astronomy, optics, instrumentation, computational astrophysics and 4) as a foundation to develop
an infrastructure and technical know how for larger telescope facility.

As the areas of CCD detectors and CCD mosaics have become larger and larger,the number of readout channels in astronomical cameras has increased accordingly to keep the image readout time within an acceptable range.For the large area cameras or the mosaic cameras,the analog Correlated Double Sampling(aCDS)circuit used in traditional astronomical cameras for suppressing readout noise is difficult to integrate into the camera controllers within the constraints of the space and energy consumption.Recently,digital CDS(dCDS)technology has been developed to solve this problem,which also offers novel analysis and noise suppression methods.In this study,a mathematical model is presented to conveniently analyze the frequency characteristic of a dCDS circuit,which is then simulated by a numerical method for investigating the noise suppression capability with different sampling weights.Importantly,using this model,the extreme point with lowest readout noise can be predicted for a certain dCDS model;and for a specific CCD readout frequency,readout noise can be suppressed by selecting the proper dCDS model.A testing system is then constructed for validating the efficiency of the proposed method. 相似文献

We attempt to throw light upon the poorly known astronomical dynasty of Knorre and describe its contribution to astronomy. The founder of the dynasty, Ernst Christoph Friedrich Knorre (1759–1810), was born in Germany in 1759, and since 1802 he was a Professor of Mathematics at the Tartu University, and observer at its temporary observatory. He determined the first coordinates of Tartu by stellar observations. Karl Friedrich Knorre (1801–1883) was the first director of the Naval Observatory in Nikolaev since the age of 20, provided the Black Sea navy with accurate time and charts, trained mariners in astronomical navigation, and certified navigation equipment. He compiled star maps and catalogues, and determined positions of comets and planets. He also participated in Bessel's project of the Academic Star Charts, and was responsible for Hora 4, published by the Berlin Academy of Sciences. This sheet permitted to discover two minor planets, Astraea and Flora. Viktor Knorre (1840–1919) was born in Nikolaev. In 1862 he left for Berlin to study astronomy. After defending his thesis for a doctor's degree, he went to Pulkovo as an astronomical calculator in 1867. Since 1873 Viktor worked as an observer of the Berlin Observatory Fraunhofer refractor. His main research focussed on minor planets, comets and binary stars. He discovered the minor planets Koronis, Oenone, Hypatia and Penthesilea. Viktor Knorre also worked on improving astronomical instrumentation, e.g. the Knorre & Heele equatorial telescope mounting (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim) 相似文献

ISLA will be an astronomical observatory, operating at the upper limit of our planet Earth atmosphere, offering space like
observing conditions in most aspects. ISLA can be maintained easily, modified easily if necessary, always kept at the state
of the art and operated for very extended periods without polluting the stratosphere. ISLA is ideally suited to become the
first world space observatory as the observing conditions are very much space-like – diffraction limited angular resolution,
very low ambient temperature, remote control – however ISLA is easily accessible, telescopes and instruments can be continuously
improved and ISLA's costs corresponds only to those of ground-based modern astronomical installations like the ESO-VLT-, KECK-
and GEMINI-observatories. The cost of observing and experimenting on ISLA will be orders of magnitudes lower than those of
building and operating any space telescope, allowing the astronomers of developing nations to participate in the ISLA observatory
within their limited financial possibilities as competent and full partners. ISLA's 4-m and 2-m telescopes will operate diffraction
limited from 0.3 μm in the optical, over the infrared, far-infrared to the sub-mm spectral range. ISLA's individual telescopes
will permit imaging with 20 milli-arcsec spatial resolution in the optical, 5 times better than the Hubble Space Telescope.
ISLA's telescopes can be combined to form an interferometer with a maximum baseline of 250 m with nearly complete coverage
of the u,v plane. Interferometric resolution will be of the order of 20 micro-arcsec for the optical. ISLA will thus offer
spatial resolution comparable or better than the intercontinental VLBI radio interferometers. ISLA's telescope efficiency
will be many orders of magnitude better than comparable ground-based telescopes. The light collecting power of ISLA's interferometric
telescopes will be orders of magnitudes greater than the future space interferometers under discussion. ISLA, being an aviation
project and not a space project, can be realised in the typical time scale for the development of aviation: about 5 years.
ISLA's cost for the whole observatory, including its movable ground station etc. will be of the order of a typical medium
size ESA space mission. ISLA's lifetime will be in excess of many decades, as it can easily be maintained, modernised, repaired
and improved. ISLA will become the origin of a new astronomical international organisation with worldwide participation. ISLA's
telescopes will be of the greatest importance to all astronomical fields, as it will permit to study much fainter, much more
distant objects with microscopic spatial resolution in wavelength regions inaccessible from ground. ISLA's many telescopes
permit easily simultaneous observations at many wavelengths for rapidly varying objects, from continuously monitoring the
surfaces of the planets in our solar system, surfaces of close-by stars, nuclei of galaxies to QSO's.

In this work, we use data of nine years (1989 to 1997) at all IRIS sites (Culgoora, Kumbel, Oukaïmeden, Izaña, La Silla and Stanford, devoted to the study of the solar velocity oscillation) to study of diurnal atmospheric extinction coefficient behaviour at Oukaïmeden observatory and to compare it to the others. By this study, we can conclude that the mean extinction coefficient at Oukaimeden is around 0.120 mag airmass-1. Besides, we show that the daily extinction coefficient varies under the influence of the seasonal effect. By the comparison of Oukaïmeden to the other sites, we showed that Oukaïmeden has a good photometric sky quality and constitutes a potential site for astronomical observations in the north hemisphere. 相似文献

We describe a programme of research to investigate materials which exhibit linear dichroism at X-ray wavelengths, and to assess
their potential as astronomical X-ray polarimeters. The availability of polarising filters for X-rays would offer an efficient
method of quantifying the polarisation of X-ray radiation from distant, cosmic sources. A polarising dichroic filter is expected
to be a compact, low mass device which could add polarimetry capability to an instrument by being introduced into the optical
path ahead of a detector. We provide estimates of sensitivity in the context of the proposed XEUS observatory, which compare
favourably with those for the most promising alternative technology. We also discuss a number of astrophysical sources which
are suited to polarimetric study at discrete energies offered by the X-ray dichroic filter design. 相似文献

On 28th September 2015, India launched its first astronomical space observatory AstroSat, successfully. AstroSat carried five astronomy payloads, namely, (i) Cadmium Zinc Telluride Imager (CZTI), (ii) Large Area X-ray Proportional Counter (LAXPC), (iii) Soft X-ray Telescope (SXT), (iv) Ultra Violet Imaging Telescope (UVIT) and (v) Scanning Sky Monitor (SSM) and therefore, has the capability to observe celestial objects in multi-wavelength. Four of the payloads are co-aligned along the positive roll axis of the spacecraft and the remaining one is placed along the positive yaw axis direction. All the payloads are sensitive to bright objects and specifically, require avoiding bright Sun within a safe zone of their bore axes in orbit. Further, there are other operational constraints both from spacecraft side and payloads side which are to be strictly enforced during operations. Even on-orbit spacecraft manoeuvres are constrained to about two of the axes in order to avoid bright Sun within this safe zone and a special constrained manoeuvre is exercised during manoeuvres. The planning and scheduling of the payloads during the Performance Verification (PV) phase was carried out in semi-autonomous/manual mode and a complete automation is exercised for normal phase/Guaranteed Time Observation (GuTO) operations. The process is found to be labour intensive and several operational software tools, encompassing spacecraft sub-systems, on-orbit, domain and environmental constraints, were built-in and interacted with the scheduling tool for appropriate decision-making and science scheduling. The procedural details of the complex scheduling of a multi-wavelength astronomy space observatory and their working in PV phase and in normal/GuTO phases are presented in this paper. 相似文献

射电天文信号非常微弱,电磁环境对射电望远镜观测至关重要,通常可以利用地形、建立无线电宁静区、进行电磁屏蔽与防护等手段来减小电磁干扰.然而,仍有一些干扰难以屏蔽.故提出了一种基于自适应滤波的干扰消除方法,可用于复杂噪声环境中天文信号的提取.该方法借助自适应横向滤波器,采用最小均方(Least Mean Square, LMS)误差算法,以系统误差和收敛性为评判标准,通过改变步长与阶数对滤波效果进行优化,仿真结果显示该滤波器能在保证算法收敛的前提下有效提取信号.为了检验该算法的有效性,选取了新疆天文台南山26 m射电望远镜和Parkes 64 m射电望远镜记录的观测数据,采用设计的滤波器分别对不同的实测数据进行测试,验证了该滤波器的有效性.理论分析与实验结果一致表明该方法能有效消除天文观测中的干扰信号,具有一定的实用性. 相似文献

Scanning Sky Monitor (SSM) onboard AstroSat is an X-ray sky monitor in the energy range 2.5–10 keV. SSM scans the sky for X-ray transient sources in this energy range of interest. If an X-ray transient source is detected in outburst by SSM, the information will be provided to the astronomical community for follow-up observations to do a detailed study of the source in various other bands. SSM instrument, since its power-ON in orbit, has observed a number of X-ray sources. This paper discusses observations of few X-ray transients by SSM. The flux reported by SSM for few sources during its Performance Verification phase (PV phase) is studied and the results are discussed. 相似文献

3D visualization is an important data analysis and knowledge discovery tool, however, interactive visualization of large 3D astronomical datasets poses a challenge for many existing data visualization packages. We present a solution to interactively visualize larger-than-memory 3D astronomical data cubes by utilizing a heterogeneous cluster of CPUs and GPUs. The system partitions the data volume into smaller sub-volumes that are distributed over the rendering workstations. A GPU-based ray casting volume rendering is performed to generate images for each sub-volume, which are composited to generate the whole volume output, and returned to the user. Datasets including the HI Parkes All Sky Survey (HIPASS – 12 GB) southern sky and the Galactic All Sky Survey (GASS – 26 GB) data cubes were used to demonstrate our framework’s performance. The framework can render the GASS data cube with a maximum render time <0.3 s with 1024 × 1024 pixels output resolution using three rendering workstations and eight GPUs. Our framework will scale to visualize larger datasets, even of Terabyte order, if proper hardware infrastructure is available. 相似文献

Because of its geographical location and (astronomically) excellent climate South Africa can make an unique contribution to international astronomical research. An assessment of recent developments in telescope technology has shown that an advanced technology telescope of 4m-class can be constructed which will out-perform most existing 4m-class telescopes. Detailed consideration is given to the construction of such a telescope for optical/infrared astronomy, the new science that this will enable and the selection of a site of sufficiently good quality to justify the erection of such a telescope. If a telescope of this nature is sited in southern Africa it would provide the premier astronomical facility in Africa for decades to come. 相似文献
