Next: ZGSC (Compressed GSC) and XSKYMAP . ... This is a preliminary report on an investigation of the quality and properties of plates digitized during creation of the Guide Star Catalog (GSC). The results will be vital for reclassifying GSC objects. ... Many objects are measured on more than one plate, and thus have multiple catalog entries. ... Among the shortcomings of the GSC are: biased magnitudes and incorrect classifications for certain objects, presence of artifact objects. ...

We investigate models for main-sequence and horizontal-branch (HB) stars constructed using the Carson opacities and make comparisons with models based on the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... The drop in the hydrogen-shell luminosity due to the helium-core expansion during HB evolution is greater than that obtained with the Cox-Stewart opacities. ... Studies of main-sequence (MS) stars lead to agreement with Stothers' (1974a,b, 1976) results for homogeneous models constructed with Carson opacities. ...

The ESA/ESO Astronomy Exercise Series 2 . The Distance to Messier 100 as Determined by Cepheid Variable Stars . ... The small variations in distance to the individual Cepheid variable stars in the Cloud are negligible compared with the much larger distance to the SMC. ... In this way Cepheid variable stars can be used as one of the 'standard candles' in the Universe that act either as distance indicators themselves or can be used to calibrate (or set the zero point for) other distance indicators. ...

Large Magellanic Cloud Distance from Cepheid Variables using Least Square Solutions Choong Ngeow (UIUC) & Shashi Kanbur (SUNY Oswego) ABSTRACT: We determine the LMC distance using Cepheid variables in the LMC. ... The least squares take the form: #0, if G05 m = % $µ + a + b log( P ), % = " !1, if OGLE · Recent studies have suggested the LMC Cepheid P-L relation is nonlinear (Kanbur & Ngeow 2004,2006; Sandage et al 2004). We also adopt a "broken" P-L relation with a break period at 10 days. ...

Magnification (Power) And Using Eyepieces . ... To determine power in a telescope, divide the focal length of the telescope by the focal length of the eyepiece. By exchanging an eyepiece of one focal length for another, you can increase or decrease the power of the telescope. For example, a 25mm eyepiece used on a telescope with a 1000mm focal length would yield a power of 40x (1000 / 25 = 40) and a 10mm eyepiece used on the same telescope would yield a power of 100x (1000 / 10 = 100). ...
