PHOTOGRAPHIC OBSERVATIONS OF SOLAR SYSTEM BODIES AT THE MAIN ASTRONOMICAL OBSERVATORY OF NAS OF UKRAINE: FINAL RESULTS
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue
Abstract
Astrometric photographic observations of Solar system bodies in the frame of different programs were made at MAO NAN of Ukraine during 1950-2005. 9245 plates with the images of planets and their natural satellite, Moon, minor planets, comets and artificial satellites were obtained and processed in the late 20th century. At the beginning of the 21st century, the UkrVO Joint Digital Archive (JDA) was created, which is accessible at the МAO NAS resources (http://gua.db.ukr-vo.org/archivespecial.php). To digitize the plate archive for the JDA database, flat bed scanners were used and the software was specially de-veloped on the basis of the LINUX/MIDAS/ROMAFOT software for the processing of wide-field images, as well as searching for the images of minor planets and comets on the Northern sky survey program plates. Up to the present time, the photographic plates with images of outer planets and their satellites have been re-processed. The final result of the long-lasting program of the photographic positional observations of Solar system bodies are summarized and presented in this publication.

EFFECT OF NON-SPHERICITY OF GRAVITATIONAL FIELD OF THE ASTEROID ON THE ITS SATELLITES ORBITS EVOLUTION
Lately it has become possible to sufficiently precise definition of the physical and geometric characteristics of asteroid systems using radar observations (http://echo.jpl.nasa.gov/~lance/binary.neas.html), which allowe...
SUN’S POLAR MAGNETIC FIELD REVERSALS IN SOLAR CYCLE 24
It is known that polar magnetic field of the Sun changes its sign at the maximum of solar cycle. These changes were called as polar field reversals. We investigated dynamics of high-latitude solar magnetic fields separat...
CATALOGUES OF THE FAINT OBJECTS IN THE AREAS WITH GAMMA-RAY BURSTS
The results of GRB observations are being published in the GCN Circulars in real-time. To study all the objects in the sky areas around the GRBs we identified them on the digitized MAO Double Wide angle Astrograph (DWA)...
TOWARD THE QUANTIZATION OF BLACK HOLES
In order to construct a quantum model of black hole (BH), we introduce a modified description of classical space-time BH (the Schwarzschild solution). We develop the Lagrangian formalism of the vacuum gravitational field...
