It may per haps be added that he uses the light emitted by the stars, instead of photographing Objects by the reflected light of the sun. But of these details more presently.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Great Star Map, Being of Brief General Account of the International Project Known as the Astrographic Chart The main portion of this little book appeared as a series of four articles in Science Progress, July 1910 to April 1911: and I am indebted to the Editors and Publisher of that Review for permission to reprint. I must further express my grateful acknowledgments to Mr. A. S. Eddington, Chief Assistant at the Royal Observatory, Greenwich, for his very careful reading of the proof-sheets.

Download or read book Jacobus Cornelius Kapteyn written by Pieter C. van der Kruit and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-18 with total page 722 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacobus C. Kapteyn (1851-1922) was a Dutch astronomer who contributed heavily to major catalogs of star positions, such as the Cape Photographic Durchmusterung and the Harvard-Groningen Durchmusterung, and arranged extensive international collaboration through his Plan of Selected Areas. He contributed to the establishment of statistical astronomy and structure and dynamics of the Sidereal System. All aspects of Kapteyn’s life are discussed, from his birth in Barneveld, the Netherlands, to his death in Amsterdam, and his entire resume of scientific achievements in between. Kapteyn had some conflicts with others in his field, especially after the world became divided on how to handle scientific contributions from Germany post-World War I. Both Kapteyn's struggles and achievements are written against the backdrop of both the historical context of the world at that time as well as the scientific one.

Download or read book New Insights From Recent Studies in Historical Astronomy Following in the Footsteps of F Richard Stephenson written by Wayne Orchiston and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains papers from a conference held to celebrate the 70th birthday of one of the world’s foremost astronomical historians, Professor F. Richard Stephenson, the latest recipient of the American Astronomical Society’s highest award for research in astronomical history, the LeRoy Doggett Prize. Reflecting Professor Stephenson’s extensive research portfolio, this book brings together under one cover papers on four different areas of scholarship: applied historical astronomy (which Stephenson founded); Islamic astronomy; Oriental astronomy and amateur astronomy. These papers are penned by astronomers from Canada, China, England, France, Georgia, Iran, Japan, Lebanon, the Netherlands, Portugal, Thailand and the USA. Its diverse coverage represents a wide cross-section of the history of astronomy community. Under discussion are ways in which recent research using historical data has provided new insights into auroral and solar activity, supernovae and changes in the rotation rate of the Earth. It also presents readers with results of recent research on leading historical figures in Islamic and Oriental astronomy, and aspects of eighteenth and nineteenth century Australian, British, German and Portuguese amateur astronomy, including the fascinating ‘amateur-turned-professional syndrome’.
