The Measurement of the Sky Brightness at Merate Observatory
We describe the problems met using the telescopes of Merate Observatory, the branch of Brera Astronomical Observatory. From the point of view of the data analysis, we discuss how to introduce a satisfactory correction of the variable extinction coefficient, giving also some examples. We also measured the sky brightness, obtaining V =18.2 mag/arcsec. The light pollution is responsible for such a...
متن کاملVariations in the sky brightness during a lunar eclipse
A total lunar eclipse is conjectured to have influence on the physical conditions of an environmental area, particularly on the brightness of the sky. The phenomenon might also be relevant on weather parameters change on Earth, such as temperature, humidity and pressure, though a straightforward correlation is not easy to establish. This work mainly aims at measuring the brightness of the sky a...
متن کاملThe 408 MHz B 3 . 2 survey
We present a new 408MHz survey (B3.2) carried out with the “Croce del Nord” radiotelescope in Bologna. The survey coordinates limits are −2◦00′ to +2◦15′ in Dec. and 21h to 24h, 00h to 17h in R.A., equivalent to 0.388 sr. The B3.2 is complete to 0.15 Jy but many sources down to 0.1 Jy are included. Our aim was to select a new and complete sample of Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) radio sources, as t...
متن کاملA Correlation Interferometer for 408 MHz
One day in the 1980’s I was helping a visiting scientist get his experiment set up at a remote site to the west of Ottawa. This site contained the decaying remains of decades of radio experiments. Among some trees I found an old shed, crammed to the roof with yagi antennas, combiners, hybrids and many matched lengths of heliax coaxial cable. Many were broken, but mixed in with the debris were s...

We present a new 408 MHz survey (B3.1) carried out with the " Croce del Nord " radiotelescope in Bologna. The survey coordinates limits are −2 • 00 ′ to +2 • 15 ′ in Dec. and 21h to 24h, 00h to 17h in R.A., equivalent to 0.388 sr. The B3.1 is complete to 0.15 Jy but many sources down to 0.1 Jy are included. Our aim was to select a new and complete sample of Ultra Steep Spectrum (USS) radio sour...
