A Multilevel Scheduling Framework for Distributed Time-domain Large-area Sky Survey Telescope Array

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
Telescope arrays are receiving increasing attention due to their promise of higher resource utilization, greater sky survey area, and higher frequency of full space-time monitoring than single telescopes.

Solving the Traveling Telescope Problem with Mixed-integer Linear Programming

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The size and complexity of modern astronomical surveys has grown to the point where, in many cases, traditional human scheduling of observations are tedious at best and impractical at worst.

Astronomical observatory site selection using fuzzy AHP and BWM methods [PDF]

open access: yesSerbian Astronomical Journal, 2023
Establishing an observatory often involves complex decisions, such as choosing a site based on multiple conflicting criteria. In this study, we develop a multi-criteria decision analysis process by combining Geographic Information System (GIS) analysis ...

The Statistical Uncertainties on X-Ray Flux and Spectral Parameters from Chandra ACIS-I Observations of Faint Sources: Application to the Cygnus OB2 Association

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal Supplement Series, 2023
We investigate the uncertainties of fitted X-ray model parameters and fluxes for relatively faint Chandra ACIS-I source spectra. Monte Carlo (MC) simulations are employed to construct a large set of 150,000 fake X-ray spectra in the low photon count ...

Methods of Astronomical Navigation [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Navigation, 1955
I think the Institute is doing a grand job in this matter of getting to the bottom of what actually happens at sea. I give a personal ‘shabash’ to D. H. Sadler & Co. for the new Abridged Nautical Almanac, and to S. M. Burton for the first-ever really practical manual and tables, but I am now completely ‘sold’ on H.D.

The 5.25 & 5.7 $\mu$m Astronomical Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Emission Features [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Astronomical mid-IR spectra show two minor PAH features at 5.25 and 5.7 $\mu$m (1905 and 1754 cm$^{\rm - 1}$) that hitherto have been little studied, but contain information about the astronomical PAH population that complements that of the major ...

A method for finding anomalous astronomical light curves and their analogues [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 2021
ABSTRACT Our understanding of the Universe has profited from deliberate targeted studies of known phenomena, as well as from serendipitous unexpected discoveries, such as the discovery of a complex variability pattern in the direction of KIC 8462852 (Boyajian’s star). Upcoming surveys such as the Vera C.
