POSITIONAL CATALOGUES OF SATURN’S AND JUPITER’S MOONS
Journal Title: Odessa Astronomical Publications - Year 2014, Vol 27, Issue 1
Abstract
In the framework of the UkrVO national project (http://ukr-vo.org/) we have started the processing of photographic observations of Saturn’s (S1-S8) and Jupiter’s (J6-J8) moons. Observations were conducted during 1961–1993 with three astrographs DLFA, DWA, DAZ and Z600 reflector. Plate images were digitized as tif-files with commercial scanners. Image processing was carried out by specific software package in the LINUX-MIDAS-ROMAFOT environment with Tycho2 as reference. The software was developed at the MAO NASU. Obtained positions of objects were compared with theoretically predicted ones in IMCCE (Paris) (www.imcce.fr/sat) online. Rms error of divergence between observed and calculated positions is of 0.20”–0.35”.

DIAGNOSTICS OF LOCAL MAGNETIC FIELDS IN SOLAR FLARES USING FeI 5383 AND MgI 5528 LINES
Main purpose of the present work is to estimate upper limit of the local magnetic field strength in solar flares using spectral lines FeI 5383 and MgI 5528. These lines like FeI 5233 have low Landé factors (1.12 and 1.00...
