24. Photographic Astrometry (Astrometrie Photographioue) [PDF]

open access: yesTransactions of the International Astronomical Union, 1991
Despite some much publicized disappointments, the highlights of Astrometry during the past three year period are dominated by the successful launches of the ES A Hipparcos astrometric satellite and the NASA Hubble Space Telescope. For the past 15 to 20 years the research activities of many Commission members have been monopolized by the design and ...

A Novel Deep Learning-Based Relabeling Architecture for Space Objects Detection from Partially Annotated Astronomical Images

open access: yesAerospace, 2022
Space Surveillance and Tracking is a task that requires the development of systems that can accurately discriminate between natural and man-made objects that orbit around Earth.

SST Anywhere—A Portable Solution for Wide Field Low Earth Orbit Surveillance

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
The low-Earth orbit (LEO) is filled with active satellites, but also with space debris, which need constant observation. The orbiting objects may be affected by collisions or by atmospheric drag, and therefore they can change their orbit or even fall to ...

Astrometry and Relativity

open access: yesIl Nuovo Cimento B, 2005
General relativistic effects in astrophyiscal systems have been detected thanks to accurate astrometric measurements. We outline some keystones of astrometry such as stellar aberration (argument development during the years 1727-1872); Mercury's perihelion precession (1845-1916); solar disk oblateness (1966-2001); relativistic light deflection (1916 ...

Photographic zenith tubes observations to improve HIPPARCOS proper motion in declination of some stars [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2005
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.

Digitization of the Belgrade Astronomical Observatory's vertical circle observational heritage [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2018
The aim of the paper is to present the digitization of the results of last observations of bright stars made by the Belgrade vertical circle ASKANIA N±80118 (D = 190 mm, f = 2578 mm) at the Astronomical Observatory of Belgrade.

Space astrometry with the Joint Milliarcsecond Astrometry Pathfinder [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the International Astronomical Union, 2009
AbstractThe Joint Milliarcsecond Astrometry Pathfinder Survey (JMAPS) is a small, space-based, all sky, visible wavelength, astrometric and photometric survey mission for 0ththrough 14thI-band magnitude stars with a planned 2013 launch. The primary objective of the JMAPS mission is the generation of an astrometric star catalog with 1 milliarcsecond ...

Inferring Io's Internal Properties by Combining Gravity Measurements and Volcanic Activity

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract With its extreme geological activity, Io represents an archetype for tidally heated exoplanets/moons and provides insight into early stages of terrestrial planet evolution. Decades of ground‐based observations and multiple space missions have refined our understanding of Io, yet it remains debated where inside Io the tidal heating takes place.

Bolide light curve systematics from 75 recovered meteorites

open access: yesMeteoritics &Planetary Science, Volume 61, Issue 9, Page 2351-2392, September 2026.
Abstract How does the energy deposition profile (light curve), deceleration, and penetration depth in Earth's atmosphere depend on asteroid composition and meteorite type? Here, we present the light curve and velocity profile of 75 bolides from camera‐documented meteorite falls.
