EUVE J0425.6-5714: A Newly Discovered AM Herculis Star [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
We detected a new AM Her star serendipitously in a 25 day observation with the EUVE satellite. A coherent period of 85.82 min is present in the EUVE Deep Survey imager light curve of this source.

Precise Orbit Determination of MEX Flyby Phobos Using Simulated Radiometric and Image Data

open access: yesSensors, 2021
A navigation camera or topography camera is a standard payload for deep space missions and the image data are normally used for auto-navigation. In this work, we study the potential contribution of image data in precise orbit determination for deep space

Achieving better than 1 minute accuracy in the Heliocentric and Barycentric Julian Dates

open access: yes, 2010
As the quality and quantity of astrophysical data continue to improve, the precision with which certain astrophysical events can be timed becomes limited not by the data themselves, but by the manner, standard, and uniformity with which time itself is ...

Binary system delays and timing noise in searches for gravitational waves from known pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The majority of fast millisecond pulsars are in binary systems, so that any periodic signal they emit is modulated by both Doppler and relativistic effects.

Real‐time and dynamic time transfer method based on double‐differenced real‐time kinematic mode

open access: yesIET Radar, Sonar & Navigation, 2021
In this study, a real‐time and dynamic time transfer method based on double‐differenced (DD) real‐time kinematic (RTK) mode is proposed. First, the method forms the DD observations of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) to fix the DD ambiguity, and

NICMOS Observations of the Transiting Hot Jupiter XO-1b

open access: yes, 2010
We refine the physical parameters of the transiting hot Jupiter planet XO-1b and its stellar host XO-1 using HST NICMOS observations. XO-1b has a radius Rp=1.21+/-0.03 RJup, and XO-1 has a radius Rs=0.94+/-0.02 RSun, where the uncertainty in the mass of ...

Direct Detection of Ultralight Dark Matter via Astronomical Ephemeris [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A novel idea of the direct detection to search for a ultralight dark matter based on the interaction between the dark matter and a nucleon is proposed. Solar system bodies feel the dark matter wind and it acts as a resistant force opposing their motions.
