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. ...

Instrument Science Report OSG-CAL-97-06 Velocity Aberration Correction for Parallel Observations Colin Cox October 22, 1997 ABSTRACT The velocity aberration correction performed by the HST pointing control software is valid for the target direction only. ... For directions within 500 arcsec of the target the variation of the correction difference does not exceed 24 milli-arcsec. ... As HST orbits about the earth, the barycentric velocity and hence the velocity aberration correction varies. ...

Comets necessarily obey the same physical laws as every other object. ... If one considers only two bodies -- either the Sun and a planet, or the Sun and a comet -- the smaller body appears to follow an elliptical path or orbit about the Sun, which is at one focus of the ellipse. ... Another quantity that is conserved is called angular momentum. ... Comets simply are bodies which in general have more angular momentum per unit mass than do planets and therefore move in more elongated orbits. ...

. This artist concept depicts two white dwarfs called RX J0806.3+1527 (J0806), swirling closer together, traveling in excess of 1 million mph (1.6 million km/h). As their orbit gets smaller and smaller, leading up to a merger, the system should release more and more energy in gravitational waves. This particular pair might have the smallest orbit of any known binary system. They complete an orbit in 321.5 seconds - barely more than five minutes. Credit: GSFC/D.Berry
