Ephemerides hard copy

Institute of Applied Astronomy of RAS has published "The Astronomical Yearbook" (AY) with 1921, The electronic versions are developed for two editions. The important stage of reform of AY is creation "The Nautical Astronomical Yearbook" (NAY) with 1930, "The Nautical Astronomical Almanac" biennial of "The Personal Astronomical Yearbook" (PersAY). (NAA-2) with 2001. Program system PersAY covers the basic types ephemerides published in "Astronomical yearbook" Over the last 10 years the resolutions of IAU [1] have essentially changed theoretical basis ephemeris and also provides possibility to calculate topocentric ephemerides, which it is necessary for observers. The calculations. They were deal with new IAU2006/2000 precession-nutation models of rotation of the Earth system enables to calculate the data for four types of tasks (different package sections): and new concept of a sidereal time.

It should be noted that ephemerides according to the standards recommended by the resolutions of IAU on 2000-2006. Except in 2007 the EPM2004 is accepted as the national standard EPM2004 in PersAY also it is possible to calculate by means of DE405/LE405 theory to make comparison fundamental ephemerides by the resolution of Allwith others ephemeris editions.

Besides, in System PersAY is the important stage in creation of the electronic version of "The Astronomical accordance with IAU resolutions, the parameters for yearbook" and enables ample opportunities for users. In many respects it is connected to system ERA as the reduction to new system are also given: the equation of basic software. The important feature of system PersAY is presence of the detailed description of all used origins Eo, the CIO locator s, parameters X, Y of CIP, the algorithms allows receiving objective information about accuracy calculated ephemerides. The system can matrix for conversion from GCRS to CIO and to the true equator of date. be considered as electronic version Y.

For ships at long-run sailing, in IAA new navigating manual (biennial "The Nautical Astronomical Almanac", NAA-2) has worked out. The NAA-2 includes the star charts, The time intervals of validity of the system makes 2010-2015, 2016-2020. examples for the determination of the compass' correction and the position of a ship by the Sun and stars. Fixing position plotter for laying off line of position (L.O.P.) is also given. The NAA-2 contains the explanation both in Russian and English. A part of published in Y data (the moments of the beginning of seasons, Chebyhev polynomials for lunar ephemerides, lunar phases, planetary configurations and eclipses, ephemerides of Ephemerides the mutual phenomena in system Galilean satellites calculated on the At present the off-line electronic version of nautical ephemeris software package for the of IAA of RAS decision of the basic tasks by definition of a place of a ship on observations of celestial bodies is basis of the numerical theory of motion) are located on a site . worked out.

It intended to solve some the tasks: navigating tasks described in the "Nautical Yearbook" (NAY) and biennial "Nautical Almanac" (NA-2). 1.

System "Shturman" is applied to control calculations of examples by preparation of edition -2. However the system possesses a number of lacks. It is the fixed accuracy of the decision, a small set of Navigator examples (the simplified schemes of the decision 20 problems), dependence on the Internet, etc.

The Conclusion
1. The reform of ephemeris editions of IAA of RAS has led to complete theoretical identity in Russian astronomical yearbooks and software package, thus providing the ephemeris support of astronomical studies and solution of astronavigation tasks at modern level. 2. Existence of electronic versions of yearbooks does not mean the end of the editions at hard copies. The electronic version should facilitate access to ephemerides, including input data at the computing equipment. The astronavigation software package help to user will help the user to process easier observation of astronavigation bodies.
