The Luminosity Function of Magnitude and Proper - Motion Selected Samples
The luminosity function of white dwarfs is a powerful tool for studies of the evolution and formation of the Milky Way. The (theoretical) white dwarf cooling sequence provides a useful indicator of the evolutionary time scales involved in the chronometry and star formation history of the galactic disk, therefore, intrinsically faint (& old) white dwarfs in the immediate solar neighborhood can b...
متن کاملSensory integration of apparent motion speed and vibration magnitude
Tactile apparent motion can display directional information in an intuitive way. It can for example be used to give directions to visually impaired individuals, or for waypoint navigation while cycling on busy streets, when vision or audition should not be loaded further. However, although humans can detect very short tactile patterns, discriminating between similar motion speeds has been shown...
متن کاملThe Absolute Magnitude of Rr Lyrae
We derive the absolute magnitude of RR Lyrae stars by two independent maximum-likelihood estimations , using Hipparcos proper motion and par-allax data, respectively. By applying the statistical parallax method to 99 Halo RR Lyrae stars, we obtain the mean absolute magnitude < M V > = 0:69 0:10 at ={1.58. Independently of this method, we furthermore derive the M V { Fe/H] relation from H...
متن کاملReaction time to motion onset and magnitude estimation of velocity in the presence of background motion
Reaction times (RT) to motion onset of a target grating moving at 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, 1.0 or 1.6 °/s and magnitude estimation of the same velocities were studied in the presence of the surrounding background motion which was either in the same or opposite direction. Surprisingly, we found no relative motion effect: if the background motion, irrespective of its direction, affected the target, then it...
متن کاملPervasiveness and magnitude of context effects: evidence for the relativity of absolute magnitude estimation.
To test the assertion that absolute magnitude estimation serves to minimize context effects, two experiments were conducted in which area stimuli were judged under differing conditions. In Experiment 1, four groups of subjects made magnitude estimations of triangles ranging in area from 1.5 to 3,072 cm2. No standard or modulus was used, and instructions were similar to those used in absolute ma...
