You Can Make Stellar Images Brighter . Articles | ... A few months ago I wrote an article titled "You Can’t Make Them Brighter". So why am I now writing that you can make them brighter. ... The image of a focused star is actually a small disk called the Airy disk, named after the 19 th century scientist Sir George Airy. ... For a given aperture, a smaller Airy disk means that the light is focused to a smaller disk and is therefore brighter. ... www.astronomy.net . About Astronomy Net | ...

... Here are some tips on how to get the best guiding out of our current system. ... NA2 Guider Tips . ... Optical double stars, late-type galaxies, and bipolar PNs may pose a problem for guiding, as will objects where you desire to observe a position away from the bright center (e.g., SNs near bright galaxies). ... Field Star is good if your object is too faint or asymmetrical for Boresight guiding, or if you need the slit to be off-center. ... Use Field Star guiding almost always. ...

... Structure of Data . ... Catalog . ... In SAI OCL Catalog, we introduce our work on investigation of the Milky Way system of open star clusters. The main goal of our study is a search for new clusters using huge surveys. 168 new clusters have been already discovered by us using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS point source catalog. ... For 141 new clusters, we found their physical parameters using J,H,Ks data from 2MASS catalog and, for a number of clusters, our UBVRI CCD observational magnitudes. ...

... It is 1st August, and you are hoping to observe a number of bright galaxies from a catalogue. ... You used the normal Vega magnitude scale. You now want to compare your B-K colour against the published colours of another, supposedly similar star you found in the literature. Your colour: B-K = 3.43 Literature colour: B-K = 3.41 Unfortunately, when you read the small-print in the literature paper, you found that the published colour used AB-magnitudes, not Vega magnitudes. ...
