Halometry from astrometry [PDF]
Halometry---mapping out the spectrum, location, and kinematics of nonluminous structures inside the Galactic halo---can be realized via variable weak gravitational lensing of the apparent motions of stars and other luminous background sources. Modern astrometric surveys provide unprecedented positional precision along with a leap in the number of ...

Determination of Orbital Elements and Ephemerides using the Geocentric Laplace’s Method
This paper presents a methodology for Initial Orbit Determination (IOD) based on a modification of the Laplace’s geocentric method. The orbital elements for Near-Earth asteroids (1864) Daedalus, 2003 GW, 2019 JA8, a Hungaria-type asteroid (4690 ...

Improved astrometry for the Bohannan & Epps catalogue [PDF]
Aims: Accurate astrometry is required to reliably cross-match 20th-century catalogues against 21st-century surveys. The present work aims to provide such astrometry for the 625 entries of the Bohannan & Epps (BE74) catalogue of H$\alpha$ emission-line stars.

The Power of (Near) Simultaneous Multi-Frequency Observations for mm-VLBI and Astrometry
Simultaneous or near-simultaneous observations at multiple frequency bands have the potential to overcome the fundamental limitation imposed by the atmospheric propagation in mm-VLBI observations.

The space age and modern technology have opened a new era for astrometry. A great amount of modern, precise astrometric data and approaches is urgently needed not only for astrophysics but also for Earth Science research. The Astrometric Community looks forward to establishing a precisely specified uniform celestial frame of reference for all purposes,
