ACCURACY OF MYKOLAIV ASTEROID OBSERVATIONS WITH DIFFERENT REFERENCE CATALOGUES
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue
Abstract
The results of astrometric reductions of main belt asteroid observations with usage of 3 different reference catalogues are presented. The high precision catalogs CMC15, UCAC4 and GAIA DR1 were used as reference catalogues for calculation asteroid equatorial coordinates. The asteroid observations were carried out at KT-50 telescope of the RI “MAO” Mobitel complex during 2016. The array contains 1666.positions of 68 asteroids mainly in range of (11 – 15) magnitudes. The differences (O – C) were calculated by comparing the obtained topocentric positions with the HORIZONS ephemerides of the JPL laboratory. The mean square errors of the (O – C) values were used for comparison of the different reductions model. The influence of the choice of the reference catalog on the random and systematic asteroid position errors is shown.

REVERBERATION MEASUREMENT OF THE INNER RADIUS OF THE DUST TORUS IN NGC 4151 DURING 2008-2013
We investigate the correlation between infrared (JHKL) and optical (B) fluxes of the variable nucleus of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4151 using partially published data for the last 6 years (2008-2013). Here we are using the...
THE ANALYSIS OF IMAGES OF A CIRCULAR SOURCE IN N-POINT GRAVITATIONAL LENSES
Currently, in the field of computer processing, there are difficulties. When processing astrophysical experimental data, the difficulties are connected, on the one hand, with a large amount of information that requires p...

Ground-based Fourier Transform Infrared spectrometer (FTIR) observations have been used for study stratosphere/troposphere ozone vertical distribution during Vasylkiv (near Kyiv, Ukraine) incident of petroleum storage bu...
SPECIFICATION OF LIMITS OF POSSIBLE EXISTENCE OF SATELLITES IN THE GRAVITATIONAL FIELD OF PLANETS
It is known that the satellites of the planets may exist in the area, which is bounded on one side by Rocha limit, on the other – Hill sphere. The article deals with the determination of the Rocha limits and Hill sphere...
ON THE CONCEPT OF THE ENHANCED FON CATALOG COMPILATION
We suppose to compile the enhanced version of FON (Photographic Survey of the Northern Sky) catalog of stellar positions and B-magnitudes in the sky region from -20 to 90 degrees on declination. The photographic base of...
