ATMoB "Open Cluster Observing Award " Guidelines Purpose: To promote observing among the membership of the Amateur Telescope Makers of Boston through participation in the Open Clusters Observing Awards program. Introduction: This awards program is oriented towards visually observing open clusters above magnitude 9.9. ... It turns out that a very unprejudiced and convenient method to dermine the limiting magnitude is to count the number of visible stars in certain areas on the sky. ...

ON THE IMPACT OF THE GALACTIC ABERRATION ON VLBI-DERIVED PRECESSION MODEL Z.M. MALKIN Pulkovo Observatory Pulkovskoe Ch. ... Corrections to adopted precession rate are usually computed from the linear trends in long-term time series of celestial pole offset (CPO), which are the differences between the measured and the theoretical coordinates of the celestial pole. ...

... R-band images obtained at 0.8 arcsec seeing conditions have allowed us to separate foreground star from point-like extragalactic source and estimate their brightness separately. ... To study the nature and properties of the source, we observed it under high spatial resolution. ... CONCLUSION RTT150 optical observations with sub-arcsecond seeing and low resolution spectra confirm the hypothesis of superposition of a radio source onto a `normal' F/G galactic star proposed by [1]. ...

... Ideally, this map contains the energy offset for each pixel (expressed in analog-to-digital units, adu). ... High-energy particles hitting the EPIC pn CCD during the offset map calculation may cause the affected pixels to get offset values which are incorrect by a few adu. ... Due to the specific method of deriving the offset map onboard, the affected areas occur often in blocks of four consecutive pixels along readout direction. ... The affected pixels usually get an offset which is too small. ...
