Measuring Titan’s rapid orbital expansion combining Cassini radio science normal points and astrometry

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Recent analyses of Titan’s orbital migration have yielded conflicting results regarding Saturn’s tidal dissipation (Q) at Titan’s frequency. While some studies reported a low Q consistent with resonance locking using independent radio science and ...

Astrometry And Data Centers [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 1988
SummaryThe paper tries to provide some background to answer the problem if old astrometric data should be stored. The cases of the AC and the CdC are examined, as well as the storage of some more recent catalogues on optical disc. Finally the necessity of producing general catalogues (of the SAO type) for non-astrometrists is underlined, to satisfy the

The Slow‐Rotating Nucleus of Comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy)

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.
ABSTRACT The close approach of comet C/2013 R1 (Lovejoy) allowed us to conduct an in‐depth study of the morphology of the inner coma. From the measurement of the dust emission structures expanding near the cometary nucleus in November–December 2013, we derived a slow rotation period of 47.8±1.2$$ 47.8\pm 1.2 $$ h.

The Hubble Missing Globular Cluster Survey

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
The Hubble Missing Globular Cluster Survey has secured high-quality astro-photometric data in two bands for 34 clusters never observed with HST. When combined with Gaia astrometry, this dataset enables the investigation of the bulk motion and the ...

A Slowly Pulsating Run‐Away B Star at High Galactic Latitude Ejected From a Spiral Arm

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, Volume 346, Issue 5, June 2025.
ABSTRACT We report the discovery of the young B6 V run‐away star LAMOST J083323.18 + 430825.4, 2.5 kpc above the Galactic plane. Its atmospheric parameters and chemical composition are determined from LAMOST spectra, indicating normal composition. Effective temperature (Teff$$ {T}_{\mathrm{eff}} $$ = 14,500$$ \mathrm{14,500} $$ K) and gravity (logg ...

Towards high-precision ground-based astrometry: Differential delay lines for PRIMA@VLTI

open access: yes, 2005
Deriving unambiguously the orbital parameters and masses of extrasolar planets requires at least 2-dimensional information on either the positions or motions of the planet directly (currently out of reach) or, indirectly, of the host star.
