  1. Практические приложения фундаментальной теории Д.ф.-м.н. Сергей М. Копейкин Университет штата Миссури, США 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  2. SIM SIM PlanetQuest is designed as a space-based 9-m baseline optical Michelson interferometer operating in the visible waveband. This mission will open up many areas of astrophysics, via astrometry with unprecedented accuracy. Over a narrow field of view (1°), SIM aims to achieve an accuracy of 1 µas in a single measurement. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  3. OBSS OBSS is an astrometric satellite designed to determine with unprecedented accuracy the positions, distances, and motions of a billion stars within our galaxy. It is a collaborative effort between the U.S. Naval Observatory and several other institutions. OBSS will measure stellar positions to less than 10 microarcseconds. (= the width of a typical strand of human hair from a distance of 650-900 miles.) 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  4. Gaia will scan the sky continuously according to a pre-defined pattern . The satellite will rotate around its spin axis at a rate of 60 arcsec/s, equivalent to a spin period of 6 hours. The spin axis itself precesses at a fixed angle of 45 degrees to the Sun. The line of sight of the two astrometric instruments are separated by the 'basic angle', which is 106.5 degrees. GAIA During its operational lifetime, Gaia will continuously scan the sky, roughly along great circles, according to a carefully selected pre-defined scanning law. The characteristics of this law, combined with the across-scan dimension of the astrometric fields of view, result in the above pattern for the distribution of the predicted number of transits on the sky in ecliptic coordinates. The fixed solar aspect angle (45 degrees) , i.e., the angle between the Sun and Gaia's spin axis, favours observations of stars around ecliptic latitudes plus and minus 90 - 45 = 45 degrees. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  5. JASMINE JASMINE is abbreviation of the position astronomical satellite plan (Japan Astrometry Satellite Mission for INfrared Exploration). It will surwey the Milky Way and its buldge in the infrared band around 1 milli-micron, measure positions, distances, and proper motion of several hundred million stars at high accuracy approaching 10 microarcsecond. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  6. Square Kilometer Array (SKA) The SKA will be an interferometric array of individual antenna stations, synthesizing an aperture with diameter of up to several 1000 kilometers. The SKA is a new generation radio telescope that will be 100 times as sensitive as the best present-day instruments. It will unlock information from the very early Universe and, using novel capabilities, be able to undertake entirely new classes of observation including VLBI with a microarcsecond resolution. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  7. VERA VERA (VLBI Exploration of Radio Astrometry) is the first VLBI array dedicated to phase-referencing astrometry. S269 (Sharpless 269) is a massive star forming region toward constellation Orion. VERA has successfully measured its trigonometric parallax of 189 +/- 8 micro-arcsecond. This is the smallest parallax ever measured, corresponding to a source distance to 17,250 light year. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  16.

  35. Detection of Ultra-Long Gravitational Waves via Astrometry Sergei M. Kopeikin and Valeri V. Makarov Is the large-scale structure of spacetime shaped by relic gravitational waves? & How to detect them ? 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  36. Short and Ultra-Long Gravitational Waves Orbiting binary stars, supernova explosions, coalescence of binary neutron stars and encounters of stars in dense clusters are thought to generate ripples in spacetime propagating far from the source (~ 1/r law). They cause tensor-type 2 transverse deflection of light rays from background sources (quasars, masers, etc.). As a rule, General Relativity predicts negligibly small astrometric effects from these sources (Kopeikin et al, Phys. Rev. D, 1999, 2001, 2002). Plane long-period cosmological waves, on the other hand, may be detectable at the (sub) μas level of accuracy via specific patterns of proper motions of light sources, expressed mostly by vector spherical harmonics of a second order. secular aberration residual rotation gravitational waves (quadrupole modes) 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  37. Patterns of apparent proper motions of quasars Simulated proper motion field of distant quasars induced by a set of plane cosmological waves. Gravitational waves of different phase and orientation superpose to make up a complicated vector field pattern mostly represented by several vector spherical harmonics of second order. The amplitude of the effect depends on the dimensionless strain of the GW packet. Such a pattern, if it exists, could be determined by precision global astrometry at a high signal-to-noise ratio if the astrometric grid includes > 100 quasars. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  38. Differential Wide-Angle Astrometry of Quasars Detection of the apparent motion of a very distant light source induced by the propagating long wave can be done with an astrometric instrument capable of (sub) microarcsecond relative measurements over wide angles (~ 90°) 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007

  40. Triangulation grid of quasars • 6 quasars separated by ~ 90 degrees make a simple celestial triangulation grid • >100 quasars needed to investigate the global pattern of gravitational waves • Since only relative proper motions are required, a set of independent triangulation sextuplets is sufficient • Proper motion amplitude proportional to frequency ω and dimensionless stress h • Estimate: primordial gravitational waves of h = 3·10-9 at ω = 10 -2 yr -1 or of h = 3·10 -11 at ω = 1 yr -1 can be detected by the global astrometric triangulation • Conclusions: • alternative detection of GW; • the method is feasible; • deeper study is required. 1-я школа по астрометрии, Москва, Октябрь 22-26, 2007
