... Armagh Observatory, College Hill, Armagh BT61 9DG, +44 (0)28 3752 2928 . ... A sample of our new eclipse observations phased on our new ephemeris (section 4.2) Vertical grey bars indicate ingress and egress of the main accretion spot. ... When combined with published eclipse times and archival data spanning тИ®27 years, we detect departures from a linear and quadratic trend of тИ®60 s. The departures are strongly suggestive of two cyclic variations of 16(3) and 5.25(25) years. ...

... Planets . ... The planets were found using the HARPS instrument on the 3.6m telescope at ESOтАЩs La Silla Observatory. ... A planet in orbit around a star causes the star to regularly move towards and away from observers on Earth. ... One newly discovered planet, HD 85512 b, is best hope found so far for a habitable exoplanet. ... The HARPS team so far have found that about 40% of stars similar to own Sun have at least one planet smaller than Saturn (which is 95 times more massive than Earth). ...

... Kepler is a mission designed to detect and characterize Earth-sized planets around solar-like stars. The sizes of the planets are determined from the decrease in light from a star that occurs during planetary transits, and the orbital period is determined from the repeatability of the transits. ... These goals are accomplished by continuously and simultaneously monitoring a single field of 140,000 stars for evidence of brightness changes caused by transits of Earth-sized or larger planets. ...

Everyone who observes a celestial object using a CCD detects moving celestial objects as a ``by product''. ... We hope that our investigations may be useful for near-Earth space control and also for searches of the moving celestial objects through analysis of old and new CCD frames obtained at any amateur or professional astronomical observatory. ...

... More on 51 Peg: . The discovery of a Jupiter--mass planet in orbit around the solar--type star 51Peg has been reported by Michel Mayor and Didier Queloz (Geneva Observatory) on October 6th at the 9th Cambridge workshop on "cool stars, stellar systems, and the sun" held at Florence (Italy). ... Recall that the measurements of radial velocity only yield v sin i which in turn gives us M sin i. For most values of i, sin i will be greater than 0.5 and this gives a mass estimate of 0.5 Jupiter masses. ...

... Future seminars . P a s t seminars . ... Hints of the fourth planet in the ? ... This star is currently believed to host 3 giant planets having orbital periods about 4.6 days, 240 days и 1280 days [1]. ... Therefore, this seasonic periodicity is caused, most probably, by systematic errors. ... Taking into account the requirement of the dynamical stability of the system allows us to mark a few regions in the parameter space, where the orbit of the putative fourth planet (e) can be located. ...

Discover the cosmos! ... December 1, 1995 . 51 Pegasi: A New Planet Discovered . ... Humanity took one step closer to answering these questions in October 1995 when it was announced that the star 51 Pegasi harbors at least one planet. In the above picture of 51 Peg the planet is not visible - it can only be detected by noticing small changes in the star's motion. ... In the above picture the lines centered on 51 Peg are caused by the telescope itself and are not related to the star or planet. ...
