Sentences with word «lightcurve»

Over the course of the three years, the SDSS Supernova Survey discovered and measured multi-band lightcurves for about 500 spectroscopically confirmed Type Ia supernovae in the redshift range z = 0.05 - 0.4.

The shape and spin axis orientation of a minor planet can be determined if a sufficient number of lightcurve data are available.

However, for modeling of shapes and spin axis, and for further development of theories regarding binary formation, tumbling, and the role of the YORP effect, researchers need full access to the complete lightcurve data sets, not just the results of the analysis.

We observed a single transit of the hot Jupiter HD 189733 b, obtaining two simultaneous primary transit lightcurves in the B and z» bands as a demonstration of SOFIA's capability to perform absolute transit photometry.

Members make a significant contribution to the understanding of asteroids particularly in the fields of astrometry and lightcurve photometry.

We identify a clear 13.1 mmag yr − 1 secular decline in the mean magnitude of the companion as well as smaller - scale variations in the optical lightcurve shape.

And while a transit search using the Hubble Space Telescope did find a promising lightcurve (about which more in a moment), it couldn't confirm Centauri Bb.

About twenty of them were identified as binary stars from the CoRoT lightcurve itself.

The rotation rates were determined mostly by the analysis of lightcurves, which are plots of magnitude versus time.

Again, the differences point to red noise in the transit lightcurves, which is likely to produce uncertainties greater than the formal error bars.

Members are encouraged to send their observations to world wide repositories ie; astrometry to the Minor Planet Center, lightcurve photometry to Geneva Observatory and Occultation reports to the European Asteroid Occultation Network.

If successful, a ZIP file is created that contains only those lightcurve blocks that were added or edited on / after the date given above and a download link appears above the Sumbit button.

Richard Miles organised a successful observing campaign to obtain a lightcurve for NEO 2006 XD2.
