So What IS the Astronomy Major? [PDF]
, 2002 We present a statistical description of the astronomy major as it is offered in U.S. colleges and universities. There is substantial variation from institution to institution, but the physics requirements for the astronomy major are more uniform than the

A Decade of Transit-timing Measurements Confirm Resonance in the K2-19 System
The Astronomical JournalK2-19 is a star, slightly smaller than the Sun, that hosts three transiting planets. Two of these, K2-19 b and c, are between the size of Neptune and Saturn and have orbital periods near a 3:2 commensurability, and exhibit strong transit-timing ...

Mapping the Orbital Landscape of Perturbing Planet Solutions for Single-planet Systems with TTVs
The Astrophysical JournalThere are now thousands of single-planet systems observed to exhibit transit timing variations (TTVs), yet we largely lack any interpretation of the implied masses responsible for these perturbations.

Orbital Decay of the Ultra-hot Jupiter TOI-2109b: Tidal Constraints and Transit-timing Analysis
The Astrophysical JournalTOI-2109b is the ultra-hot Jupiter with the shortest orbital period (∼16 hr) yet discovered. At this close distance, strong tidal interactions can produce a significant exchange of angular momentum with the star.

The 1948 solar eclipse and the genesis of radio astronomy in Victoria [PDF]
, 2004 In the early years of radio astronomy, solar eclipses played a critical role in establishing the sources of solar radio emission. During the half decade from 1945, Australia emerged as a leading nation in radio astronomy, with most of the observations ...
