AutoCal: A software application for calibrating photometric data
South African Journal of Science, 2016 We present a software application for the calibration of stellar magnitudes in the absence of standard stars. It uses an existing algorithm to match stars in the target’s field of view to catalogue entries and computes the average offset between the two ...

Rossby Waves in Astrophysics [PDF]
Space Science Reviews, 2021 AbstractRossby waves are a pervasive feature of the large-scale motions of the Earth’s atmosphere and oceans. These waves (also known as planetary waves and r-modes) also play an important role in the large-scale dynamics of different astrophysical objects such as the solar atmosphere and interior, astrophysical discs, rapidly rotating stars, planetary

Fictions, Conditionals, and Stellar Astrophysics [PDF]
, 2013 This article argues in favour of an inferential role for fictions in scientific modelling. The argument proceeds by means of a detailed case study, namely models of the internal structure of stars in stellar astrophysics.

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1996 Ap95 differs from Ap91 to Ap94 primarily in Ap number. That is, it once again attempts to highlight some areas of our mutual science where a major event has occurred during the year (a possible solution of the Type II supernova problem, the faintness of quasar host galaxies, and the collision of Shoemaker-Levy 9 with Jupiter), but also to focus on some

Publications of the Astronomical Society of the Pacific, 1997 The loudest astronomical headlines of the year came from both very near (planets orbiting stars in the solar neighborhood) and very far (galaxies and parts of galaxies at redshifts of 1 to 3 and more). We explore these and other happenings in our Solar System (Galileo at Jupiter, Comet Hyakutake), Milky Way (the bursting pulsar, spotted stars), Local ...

Reports on Progress in Physics, 1999 Nuclear astrophysics is that branch of astrophysics which helps understanding some of the many facets of the Universe through the knowledge of the microcosm of the atomic nucleus. In the last decades much advance has been made in nuclear astrophysics thanks to the sometimes spectacular progress in the modelling of the structure and evolution of the ...
