Astronomers at Armagh Observatory observed the partial eclipse of the Sun on 29 March under unusually good conditions. ... The images, taken by astronomer Miruna Popescu, shows the eclipse as seen from the Armagh Observatory at around 11:30 (Summer Time) on 29th March, and the way it was observed by astronomer Apostolos Christou with a small portable telescope equipped with a filter to protect against the Sun's dangerous radiation. ...

... A light curve decomposition tool ( LFIT ) developed by Keith Horne and Tom Marsh and its application on HST-data of the eclipsing dwarf nova IP Peg will be presented. ... Our LFIT code decomposes time-resolved spectral data into N components with parameterized light curve shapes, solving for the spectra of each component. ... To apply this algorithm to the HST and UBVRI eclipses of IP Peg, we add an ellipsoidal light curve for the companion star, and a more detailed description of the bright spot. ...

... The March 20 total solar eclipse was visible over the North Atlantic and Arctic Oceans. ... Solar eclipses are of interest for radio astronomy, as they make it possible to observe individual details on the solar disc (spots, filaments, flocculi, etc.) ... On March 20, 2015 the integrated observations of the solar eclipse were carried out at the RATAN-600 radio telescope at 70 wavelengths simultaneously in the range of 1.65cm to 10cm with the 1% frequency resolution. ...

... Previous: ESO C Library for an Image Processing Software Environment (eclipse) . ... A new CLEAN-type algorithm searches for model components not in the dirty image but in the multi-resolution wavelet transform of the dirty image based on the dirty beam. ... The improvement of this prototype Wavelet CLEAN, which does convolve with the dirty beam, can be attributed to a suppression of noise and aliasing in the dirty image by use of information in the sidelobes of the whole image domain. ...

... This year's eclipse is unique in duration. ... Although, at the present time, there are 6 solar observatories belonging to leading space agencies in orbit around the Earth, the eclipse of 22 July, 2009, will only be seen by two of them: the Russian CORONAS-PHOTON satellite equipped with TESIS telescopes and Japan's HINODE satellite fitted with an XRT space telescope. ... TESIS will be the first of the two devices (and the very first on Earth) to witness the solar eclipse. ...

Educator's Guide to Eclipses . ... In a solar eclipse you observe the Sun (using only safe methods, of course). ... In a lunar eclipse you observe the Moon. ... Because of the geometry described below, you can only view a solar eclipse when the Sun is up, and the Moon is nowhere to be seen. ... Eclipses occur when the Sun, Earth and Moon line up. ... In a solar eclipse the Moon passes directly in front of the Sun. ... In a lunar eclipse the Moon moves into Earth's shadow. ...

... In this section, we develop a physical model of the secondary as a disk that is centrifugally supported in the radial direction and hydrostatically supported in the vertical direction. We assume that the disk is vertically isothermal and well mixed. ... where is the mean molecular mass of the gas, is the orbital period at the outer edge of the disk in years, and all of the mass of the secondary has been assumed to be concentrated near its center, so the Keplerian approximation is valid. ...

... The concept of continuous solar wind developed in 1950's. First, Biermann (1951, 1957) observed comet tails as they passed close to the Sun , and explained the observed tail deflection by a continuous flux of protons from the Sun. Then Parker (1959) showed that the solar corona must expand, and called the outward streaming coronal gas 'solar wind'. ... The expanding solar wind drags also the solar magnetic field outward, forming what is called the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) . ...

... Initial mass function and binary stars . ... The principal goal of this study is to show that the real shape of the initial mass function for low- and intermediate-mass stars differs from the observed one. In particular, comparison of radii of eclipsing binary components and single stars shows a noticeable difference for B0V-G0V components of eclipsing binaries and single stars of the corresponding spectral type. ...
