Astronomy Discussion Forums . Forums: . ... TIME DILATION . ... Time dilation is what we take to be the disagreement in the total time of an event as measured by a moving frame and stationary frame. ... Imagine a car 100km from a stationary observer and which is positioned such that it would travel 200km on a straight line in a direction away from the stationary observer. ... Therefore the total time of motion of the car as measured by the stationary observer is T= t- 100km/C + (100km+200km/C). ...

... For reliable estimation of the accuracy of asteroid CCD observations we usually consider from ten or more various NUMBERED MINOR PLANETS (NMPs) observed during several nigths per month (more then 50 positions). ... They can be considered as an indicator of accuracy of the CCD positional observations with given MPC code. ... For any NUMBERED minor planet the (O-C) values must be zero if the errors of observations and the errors of its theory are absent. ...

... The first column shows the kinematical diagrams, where is the angle between the line of sight on the object and the vector of rotation about Z -axis, and V S is objects line-of-sight velocity relative to an observer at rest at the position of the Sun. The straight lines are regression fits, whose slopes yield the subsystem’s rotation rate. The second column shows the relations between metallicity and distance from the Galactic plane. ... privious figure | next figure . ...
