The Maksutov´s Systems from Turnov
Rail, Zdeněk ; Melich, Zbyněk ; Jareš, Daniel ; Pintr, Pavel ; Vápenka, David
This paper deals of a design and a manufacture of optical systems with the entrance meniscus corrector of Maksutov. Many of these high performance systems have been manufactured in several workshops in Turnov since Seventies. We present our experience with the optical design, manufacture and construction of the meniscus telescopes and cameras in this article.
The Optical Parameters of Famous Refractors
Rail, Zdeněk ; Jareš, Daniel ; Pintr, Pavel ; Vápenka, David
In this paper we publish the optical parameters of several historic telescopes, which we have found in scientific literature or web pages. Data were inputed into the optical program ZEMAX, which evaluated their residual aberrations.
The Simulation of Residual Optical Aberrations of the Objective Lens of Merz 124/1477
Rail, Zdeněk ; Melich, Zbyněk ; Šrajer, Bohdan
This objective lens was renoved in the Institute of Plasma Physics, v.v.i. Center Toptec in Turnov. During the process we got a possibility to measure the objective lens on the optical bench and to evaluate its residual optical aberrations. The objective lens was manufactured in 1860-1870 years
Reconstruction of the solar activity to 11,000 years BP and possible long-term periodicities
Střeštík, Jaroslav
Observations of solar activity (Wolf sunspot numbers) last only about 250 years, moreover, from sporadic observations the solar activity can be estimated approximately to the year 1500. In addition to the well-known eleven-year period some long-term periods seem to take place. This means that the values at the maxima of 11-yr solar cycles in certain periods are higher than those in other ones. Based on the analysis of dust fallout containing radioactive elements, conserved in glaciers, some authors reconstructed the solar activity first one millennium back, and later more millennia back. The longest series begins 9000 years B. C. and these data are published. Strangely, most authors of these the reconstructions do not look for possible periodicities, or only marginally. Here the possible periodicities obtained from a series of 11,000 years long have been presented. The results suggest a superlong periodicity with the length about 6500 years, on the other hand, they do not confirm variations with the length between 100 and 200 years, which are not persistent.
