This book was released on 2017-10-11 with total page 460 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Vol. 48 An object-glass of 7 inches aperture, and of about 5 I feet focal length, is attached in front of the object-glass of the transit-circle, the telescope tube of the latter bein g horizontal and pointing north. This long-focus object.glass forms, in fact, a reversed telescope or collimator, in the focus of which is the vertical plate A. Of the person al equation machine, aper. Tures in which, illuminated by sunlight, moonlight, or diffused skylight reflected from a plane mirror behind, form the artificial objects to be observed. A. Circular aperture in the plate 6 inches in diameter represents the Sun or Moon, and as only the portions a, f, near the ends of the horizontal diameter, are re quired for observations of first and second limbs, the remainder of the aperture is filled by a plate carrying four small pinholes b, c, d, e (to represent stars of di'fi'erent magnitudes) adj ustable in a'hm-izoutnl slide. The vertical plate is mounted on a car tiaga with three grooved wheels (b, C, D) running on two horizontal rails, and carried smoothly by clockwork from east to west, or west to cast, at a rate which, by means of an ingenious contrivance devised by Mr. J ames Simms, may be varied at will from that of a very close circumpolar star to about three times, that of an equatorial star. The movement of the vertical plate is effected in the following manner - A horizontal circular brass, plate E is attached to the vertical spindle F of an equatorial driving clock (belonging to one of the photoheliographs), and is thus made to rotate uniformly at a determinate speed. This plate drives by rolling friction a brass disc G, turning about a horizontal axis H, and placed with its rim in contact with the plate. The disc G can be slipped along its spindle and clamped at any point, so that the point of contact of the disc and plate, can be adjusted at will to any distant from the centre of the latter, the angular velocity of the disc varying directly as this, distance, and changing sign at the centre. At the further end of the spindle is a screw which gears into a toothed wheel I, and communicates the motion to the vertical plate by means of a pulley-wheel (in the same casting with the toothed wheel), and a cord K kept in tension by weights at each end. The carriage on which the vertical plate is mounted can be attached to any con venient point of the cord.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Vol. 47 In the spring of last year Mr. Hind pointed out to me that, in view of the Proper Motion of the star 7 Equulei, there was ground for the inference that a small 11 mag. Companion, detected by me in July 1867, was in physical connection with it. I have been hoping accordingly to obtain further measures of the pair, but have failed doing so until the present month.

In a former paper I attempted to prove that, before taking their orbits under the influence of the Suns attractions, the Comets i 860 Iii, 1863 I., and 1863 VI., formed a system, that is to say, at short distances from each other they had initial movements of the same direction and velocity. That direction is nearly indicated by the straight line uniting the Sun toy Hydri. At the end of the same paper I promised to extend my researches on the Comets that appeared before 1844. The following table contains all the cases since the year 1556, in which the question may arise about a cometary system, in consequence of the successive apparition of comets whose aphelia approach each other on the sphere.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Vol. 39: Containing Papers, Abstracts of Papers, and Reports of the Proceedings of the Society, From November 1878 to November 1879 I may mention that the other evening (july 5) I was surprised to see Satellite IV in transit appear as a dark spot instead of the usual bright point when on the less illumined surface near the edge of the planet; in fact it was at entry nearly as black as its shadow, which was just passin off on the other side. This I know has been seen before, bot with Satellites III and IV, and must, I presume, be attributed to one side of the satellite reflecting less light than the other, or else to some violent changes in its atmosphere. Before it came on to the disk I noticed that it was fainter than usual. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
