Parallax limitations in digital holography: a phase space approach

open access: yesLight: Advanced Manufacturing, 2022
The viewing direction in Digital Holography can be varied if different parts of a hologram are reconstructed. In this article parallax limitations are discussed using the phase space formalism.

Active Estimation of Distance in a Robotic Vision System that Replicates Human Eye Movement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Many visual cues, both binocular and monocular, provide 3D information. When an agent moves with respect to a scene, an important cue is the different motion of objects located at various distances.

The Cepheid period -- luminosity -- metallicity relation based on Gaia DR2 data

open access: yes, 2018
We use parallax data from the Gaia second data release (GDR2), combined with parallax data based on Hipparcos and HST data, to derive the period-luminosity-metallicity (PLZ) relation for Galactic classical cepheids (CCs) in the V,K, and Wesenheit WVK ...

Direct Distance Measurement to the Dusty White Dwarf GD 362 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
We present trigonometric parallax observations of GD 362 obtained over seven epochs using the MDM 2.4m Hiltner Telescope. The existence of a dust disk around this possibly massive white dwarf makes it an interesting target for parallax observations.

Seeing Earth's Orbit in the Stars: Parallax and Aberration

open access: yes, 2012
During the 17th century the idea of an orbiting and rotating Earth became increasingly popular, but opponents of this view continued to point out that the theory had observable consequences that had never, in fact, been observed.

OGLE-2017-BLG-0329L: A Microlensing Binary Characterized with Dramatically Enhanced Precision Using Data from Space-based Observations [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Mass measurements of gravitational microlenses require one to determine the microlens parallax π E, but precise π E measurement, in many cases, is hampered due to the subtlety of the microlens-parallax signal combined with the difficulty of ...

A CURRENT APPLICATION OF THE METHODS OF SECULAR AND STATISTICAL PARALLAX

open access: yesOdessa Astronomical Publications, 2012
The methods of secular and statistical parallax for homogeneous groups of Galactic stars are applied in a practical (classroom) exercise to establish the luminosity of bright B3 V stars. The solar motion of 20 km s-1 relative to group stars exceeds their

XHIP-II: Clusters and associations

open access: yes, 2012
Context. In the absence of complete kinematic data it has not previously been possible to furnish accurate lists of member stars for all moving groups. There has been an unresolved dispute concerning the apparent inconsistency of the Hipparcos parallax ...

Casting Light on Degeneracies: A Comprehensive Study of Lightcurve Variations in Microlensing Events OGLE-2017-BLG-0103 and OGLE-2017-BLG-0192

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
This study investigates orbital parallax in gravitational microlensing events, focusing on OGLE-2017-BLG-0103 and OGLE-2017-BLG-0192. For events with timescales ≤60 days, a Jerk-Parallax degeneracy arises due to high Jerk velocity ( $\tilde{{v}_{j ...
