Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book presents a set of tables that help determine the correction for atmospheric refraction on astronomic observations. The tables are based on the theory of refraction developed by Horrn Radau, and rely on a constant of refraction as determined by Prof. Bauschinger. The author used seven-decimal logarithm tables to calculate the refractions for a range of apparent zenith distances, temperatures, and air densities, and then derived corrections to be applied for different air densities and temperatures. To control the accuracy of the results, he compared them with tables published by Radau. The author also provides tables for calculating refraction in position angle and distance for large distances, as well as tables for micrometer and photographic differential refraction. This book is a valuable resource for astronomers and other scientists who need to correct their observations for atmospheric refraction. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
