ARCSAT ID NUMBER: AS01 DESCRIPTIVE TITLE: Search for Short-Period Planets Orbiting Bright White Dwarfs PI: Brett Morris (UW) OBSERVER(S): Brett Morris (UW), Doug Branton (UW) UNCERTIFIED/UNTRAINED OBSERVERS: Undetermined Pre-MAP students ... In addition, since typical white dwarfs are roughly Earth-sized, the transit of an Earth-sized planet can cause changes in brightness on the order of several tens of percent for durations on the order of one minute (Agol 2011). ...

Tiny Pluto, orbiting the Sun an average of nearly 40 times the Earth's orbital radius, has an odd orbit. Most planets orbit the Sun in nearly perfect circles, but Pluto's orbit is noticeably elliptical. ... The orbits of Pluto and Neptune have a coincidental timing to them: Pluto orbits the Sun twice for every three times Neptune does. ...

... Time service of RATAN-600 outputs sideral seconds and impulses of minutes with time codes for feed-cabines. These signals are coincided with local sideral time, recalculated from coordinate time UTC, using of sideral time program (stm) having accuracy of 0.0001s. DeltaUTC can be received from Time service or from Astronomical Annuals. The program stm calculates mean sideral time on any date with high accuracy (usage: stm hh [dd/mm/yy] ). ...
