tailieunhanh - Hipparcos, the New Reduction of the Raw Data

The publication of the Hipparcos and Tycho Catalogues in 1997 transformed astrometry, and as a consequence astronomers’ perception of astrometry. What had before often been regarded as a somewhat quaint specialty of limited relevance to modern astrophysics, was suddenly seen to produce a wealth of data of immediate practical use. The ready availability of many thousand precise trigonometric stellar distances and the access to an accurate and dense optical reference frame have changed the way astronomers think about certain problems and plan their experiments | Hipparcos the New Reduction of the Raw Data r ÃS SL Springer Hipparcos the New Reduction of the Raw Data Astrophysics and Space Science Library EDITORIAL BOARD Chairman W.
