Applications of the Source-Frequency Phase-Referencing Technique for ngEHT Observations
The source-frequency phase-referencing (SFPR) technique has been demonstrated to have great advantages for mm-VLBI observations. By implementing simultaneous multi-frequency receiving systems on the next-generation Event Horizon Telescope (ngEHT ...

Masses, bulk densities, and macroporosities of asteroids (15) Eunomia, (29) Amphitrite, (52) Europa, and (445) Edna based on Gaia astrometry [PDF]
Gaia Data Release 2 (DR2) includes milliarcsecond-accuracy astrometry for 14,099 asteroids. We explore the practical impact of this data for the purpose of asteroid mass and orbit estimation by estimating the masses individually for four large asteroids. We use various combinations of Gaia astrometry and/or Earth-based astrometry so as to determine the

Astrometry test of MSCRED IRAF software package [PDF]
Astrometric properties of images obtained using MSCRED IRAF software package are investigated. CCD observations of M35 open cluster were taken in an observation run between October 10 and 17, 2004 at Belogradchick Observatory (Bulgaria) using the 60cm ...

Orientations of orbital planes of binaries [PDF]
Orientations of orbital planes of binaries are analyzed by using a complete sample of known orbital systems. The use of a so large sample is possible due to the application of a new procedure enabling to include the binaries for which the ascending nodes

Microarcsecond Astrometry: Science Highlights from Gaia [PDF]
Access to microarcsecond astrometry is now routine in the radio, infrared, and optical domains. In particular the publication of the second data release from the Gaia mission made it possible for every astronomer to work with easily accessible, high-precision astrometry for 1.7 billion sources to 21st magnitude over the full sky.

Observational data and orbits of the asteroids discovered at the Baldone Observatory in 2015–2018
This paper is devoted to the discovery of 37 asteroids at the Baldone Astrophysical Observatory (MPC 069) from 2015 to 2018, and one of dynamically interesting Mars-crosser (MC) observed at the Baldone Astrophysical Observatory, namely 2008 LX16.

Astrometry in the Future [PDF]
AbstractThe introduction of the extragalactic reference frame and the availability of the Hipparcos and Tycho catalogs will have major impacts on changing the accuracy levels of astrometry in the future.There is a need for accurate densification of the reference frames down to at least 20thmagnitude.

Photographic zenith tubes observations to improve HIPPARCOS proper motion in declination of some stars [PDF]
A procedure of calculation and results of an attempt to improve proper motions in declination for some HIPPARCOS stars are presented. A long series of optical observations of these stars observed with Photographic Zenith Tubes (PZT) are used.
