OBSERVATIONS OF THE 1991 ECLIPSE AT 3.5 mm WAVELENGTH
We report preliminary results of the partial eclipse seen from the BIMA millimeterwavelength interferometer in northern California. The use of an interferometer has many advantages over previous single-dish eclipse observations at 3 mm, and in particular it allows a quite different type of measurement of the height of the "3-mm limb" which is direct and precise : we find it to be 11.9" ± 0.4" a...
متن کاملSPITZER/IRAC OBSERVATIONS OF THE VARIABILITY OF Sgr A* AND THE OBJECT G2 AT 4.5 μm
We present the first detection from the Spitzer Space Telescope of 4.5 μm variability from Sgr A*, the emitting source associated with the Milky Way’s central black hole. The >23 hour continuous light curve was obtained with the IRAC instrument in 2013 December. The result characterizes the variability of Sgr A* prior to the closest approach of the G2 object, a putative infalling gas cloud that...
متن کاملObservations of shadow bands at the total solar eclipse of 16 February 1980.
Photoelectric observations of short term light variations (shadow bands) at the 16 Feb. 1980 total solar eclipse have been made using a set of spatially separated PIN diodes. Light variations in a bandpass of 1-500 Hz were detected during the half-minutes preceding and following the total phase. Fourier analysis of the noise spectrum of the variations reveals a sharp drop-off for frequencies ab...
متن کاملDetection of the Cosmic Infrared Background at 2.2 and 3.5 Μm Using Dirbe Observations
We compare data from the Diffuse InfraRed Background Experiment (DIRBE) on the Cosmic Background Explorer (COBE) satellite to the the Wainscoat et al. (1992) model of the infrared sky. The model is first compared with broadband K (2.2 µm) star counts. Its success at K-band gives credence to its physical approach which is extrapolated to the L-band (3.5 µm). We have analyzed the histograms of th...
متن کاملA Tentative Detection of the Cosmic Infrared Background at 3.5 μm from COBE/DIRBE Observations
Foreground emission and scattered light from interplanetary dust (IPD) particles and emission from Galactic stellar sources are the greatest obstacles for determining the cosmic infrared background (CIB) from diffuse sky measurements in the ∼ 1 to 5 μm range. We describe a new method for deriving the CIB at near infrared wavelengths which reduces the uncertainties associated with the removal of...
