COLITECVS – NEW TOOL FOR AUTOMATED REDUCTION OF PHOTOMETRIC OBSERVATIONS
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue
Abstract
The capabilities of telescopes allow us to make the plotting of light curves a routine task. This one shifts the main attention of astronomer from the plotting to research. To achieve this goal, we developed a new tool for automated reduction of photometric observations, which includes the computational method for the brightness assessment of the investigated and comparison stars; brightness equalization of astronomical images using inverse median filter; light curve plotting and its processing using different tools.

Hα AND Hβ PROFILE VARIATIONS IN THE SPECTRA OF THE STAR 55 CYG
We study the variability of the Hα and Hβ lines in the spectra of 55 Cyg based on observations acquired in 2014 on the 2-m telescope of Shamakhy Astrophysical Observatory. In this work line profiles...
DEPRESSION IN THE CONTINUOUS SPECTRUM OF SOLAR RADIATION IN THE REGION 6500 − 8200˚A
Based on the authors’ computations of cross-sections of the basic processes which form continuous absorption in the photospheres of solar-type stars, the spectral dependence of the solar radiation intensity in the contin...
