متن کاملInner space: Reference frames
How are we aware of our surroundings? Somehow, from a pair of tiny, two-dimensional pictures of the visual world – provided by our retinas – our brains are able to render the world as it is, accurately depicting the locations of both a distant mountain range and the camera we are pointing at it. To understand how space is represented in the brain, neurophysiologists have borrowed the useful con...
متن کاملDefinition of the Celestial Ephemeris Origin and of UT 1 in the International Celestial Reference Frame ?
The adoption of the International Celestial Reference System ICRS, and of the corresponding Frame, ICRF, by the 23rd General Assembly of the International Astronomical Union, calls for a redefinition of the departure point on the true equator. Several possibilities have been suggested. This paper considers the use of the non-rotating origin (Guinot 1979). The " Celestial Ephemeris Origin " (CEO...
