AbstractA new speckle interferometer began operation with the 66-cm refractor in Oct. 1990. The interferometer is an improved version of the one operated by CHARA at Georgia State University. We describe the instrument, its calibration, and first observational results.

Abstract:
Abstract During the 40-year photographic period of astronomical observations, the Baldone Astrophysical Observatory has accumulated more than 22,000 direct and 2,500 spectral images. In 2018, the digitization of direct astrophoto images with a resolution of 1200 dpi was completed. A processing methodology for obtaining the equatorial coordinates and photometric characteristics of the objects recorded in digitized astronegatives using the LINUX/MIDAS/ROMAFOT environment has been developed at the Main Astronomical Observatory of the National Academy of Sciences of Ukraine.

Abstract:
Abstract We introduce the application of the clustering algorithm to the preliminary compiled list of probable wide pairs of co-moving stars. The main aim of such development is a possibility of unsupervised blind search of coeval loose stellar structures over significant regions in space. Using Gaia EDR3 data, we investigated the application of the method to nearby region hosting recently discovered loose structures – tidal tails of Coma Ber star cluster and a nearby stellar group named Group X. We compare the results of straightforward clustering of stellar data with results of using our met

AbstractHitomi (ASTRO-H) is an X-ray observatory developed by an international collaboration led by JAXA. An X-ray microcalorimeter onboard this satellite has opened a new window of high-resolution spectroscopy with an unprecedented energy resolution of 5 eV (FWHM) at 6 keV. The spacecraft was launched on February 17, 2016 from Tanegashima Island, Japan, and we completed initial operations including deployment of the hard X-ray imagers on the extensible optical bench. All scientific instruments had successfully worked until the sudden loss of the mission on March 26. We have obtained a spectru

AbstractObservations with the Hopkins Ultraviolet Telescope on the Astro-1 and Astro-2 space shuttle missions have provided the first set of moderate (3 Å) resolution far ultraviolet (FUV) spectra of dwarf novae to include the wavelength range between Lyα and the Lyman limit. Important lines which are detected in the HUT spectra of dwarf novae in this wavelength range include S VI λλ933,945, C III λ977, O VI λλ1032,1038, P V λλ1118,1128 and C III λ1176, as well as the higher order Lyman lines. The observations confirm earlier IUE observations that two dwarf novae – U Gem and VW Hyi – have quie

Abstract:
Data from the U. S. Naval Observatory annual astronomical almanacs (1970–1992) in “correlation” with the Maya Calendar Round (CR) sequence indicate that the Dresden Codex lunar table (51a-58b) very probably counted simultaneous sequences of both lunar and solar eclipses on the same set of day names. The contemporary sequence of day names in the CR and the astronomy consistent with it parallels Classic-period Maya observational experience between 9.16.0.0.0 and 9.17.0.0.0.

Abstract:
Abstract The Stellar Abundances and Galactic Evolution Survey (SAGES) of the northern sky is a specifically designed multiband photometric survey aiming to provide reliable stellar parameters with accuracy comparable to those from low-resolution optical spectra. It was carried out with the 2.3 m Bok telescope of Steward Observatory and three other telescopes. The observations in the u s and v s passband produced over 36,092 frames of images in total, covering a sky area of ∼9960 deg2. The median survey completenesses of all observing fields for the two bands are u s = 20.4 mag and v s = 20.3 m

Abstract:
Observations of flare stars with high time resolution permit to register spiky type flares and also to study in detail bright curves of flares. In Byurakan observatory observations of EV Lac have been made with 0.1 s time resolution simultaneouslyin two filters “U” and “B” [1-3]. These observations permited to detect flares of a burst type (Fig.1) and also to reveil multipeak structure of long duration flares. It is necessary to stress that simultaneous observations in two colours increas appresiably the thrustworthiness of the registered spiky flares.

Abstract:
The purpose of the paper is to analyze the presence of astro symbolism in the poetry of Thomas Stearns Eliot. At the beginning of the paper, Eliot’s preference for scientific disciplines such as astronomy, whose postulates greatly influenced Eliot’s tendency to use astro symbols, was mentioned. In this sense, there is also a review of other relevant natural-scientific disciplines that shaped the author’s modernist revolutionary consciousness. The competent critics consider this segment of Eliot’s writings not adequately studied, so this paper should be understood as a modest contribution to th
