Le bureau des longitudes au prisme de ses procès-verbaux, 1795-1932 by
Martina Schiavon(
Book
)
1 edition published in 2021 in French and held by 11 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
Qu'est-ce que le Bureau des longitudes ? De quoi est-il le nom ? Créé en 1795 à l'initiative de l'abbé Grégoire, il a été un lieu de savoirs hybrides, à mi-chemin entre une académie scientifique et un espace d'administration des sciences et des technologies. Rendre compte de l'évolution d'une telle institution sur la longue durée représente en soi un défi. Cet ouvrage propose, dans une perspective micro-historique, des histoires du Bureau des longitudes. Celles-ci mobilisent des focales, des échelles, des perspectives et des méthodologies d'analyse variées, à partir d'un même corpus : les procès-verbaux du Bureau des longitudes. Les quinze contributions présentées ici mettent en évidence la portée heuristique de l'exploitation de cette source archivistique originale pour l'historien des sciences et des techniques. Elles sont organisées autour de six sections qui se recoupent et dialoguent entre elles : acteurs et institutions scientifiques ; politiques nationales des sciences ; métrologies ; politiques instrumentales ; politiques internationales des sciences et contrôle du territoire. Cet ouvrage collectif prolonge un livre-programme, Pour une histoire du Bureau des longitudes (1795-1932), publié en 2017 dans la même collection

Report of the International Astronomical Union Division I Working Group on Precession and the Ecliptic by
John Hilton(
)
4 editions published in 2006 in English and held by 5 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The IAU Working Group on Precession and the Equinox looked at several solutions for replacing the precession part of the IAU 2000A precession-nutation model, which is not consistent with dynamical theory. These comparisons show that the precession theory, P03, is both consistent with dynamical theory and the solution most compatible with the IAU 2000A nutation model. Thus, the working group recommends the adoption of the P03 precession theory for use with the IAU 2000A nutation. The two greatest sources of uncertainty in the precession theory are the rate of change of the Earth's dynamical flattening, Delta-J2, and the precession rates (i.e. the constants of integration used in deriving the precession). The combined uncertainties limit the accuracy in the precession theory to approximately 2 mas cent(to the minus 2nd power)

Apport d'Hipparcos à l'étude des étoiles A du voisinage solaire : cinématique et fonction de masse initiale by
Virginie Sabas(
)
3 editions published between 1997 and 2019 in French and held by 4 WorldCat member libraries worldwide
The Galactic disk complexity is well traced by kinematical properties and photometrical distributions of young stars. The very peculiar kinematics of these stars brought attention since the last century (Proctor, 1869). On and after 1963, Eggen showed the existence of kinematical groups. Gomez et al. (1990) suggested that they come from starbursts. Their existence allows us to constraint the galactic mixing time. To modelize a given stars distribution one needs to know the Initial mass Function (IMF) and the Stellar Formation Rate (SFR). Until now, a Mass-Luminosity relation was needed, which is non univocal for this type of stars and therefore very uncertain. But now, for the first time, we can benefit the Hipparcos datas for these studies : the Hipparcos astrometric satellite observed 11 800 stars on the whole during 4 years. The good accuracy of positions, parallaxes and proper motions together with the completeness of data allows us to get a new insight into galactical dynamics. In this work, we use a B5-F5 stars sample with apparent magnitude V ≤ 7.5 observed by Hipparcos. We first describe the acquisition of ground-based complementary observations : radial velocities, effective temperatures, absolute magnitude and the determination of masses and ages. This sample is used to study the kinematics of the hot stars of the solar neighborhood. We confirm the existence of Eggen's groups and find a range of ages for each of them, giving hints that these groups come from successive clusters formed in one Giant Molecular Cloud. We confirm that the stars are not well mixed after about 10 galactic years. Finally, we estimate the solar motion to be of (11.5, 14.1, 8.6) km/s. in the last part, we determine the slope of the IMF between and solar mass, assuming a constant SFR. We obtain 0.95 +/- 0.17, lower than the reference values (Salpeter1955, Scalo 1986), but in good agreement with more recent determinations concerning the whole mass range
