Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - Admiral William Henry Smyth's Sidereal Chromatics (1864) represents a landmark achievement in nineteenth-century astronomy, offering the most precise observations of the colours of double stars yet recorded. An expansion upon his well-known Bedford Cycle of Celestial Objects, which garnered a gold medal from the Royal Astronomical Society, Sidereal Chromatics provides both a theory concerning the source of double-star colours and a method for determining their most exact description. Detailed charts compare Smyth's measurements of more than one hundred double stars with his own previously published observations and those of his fellow astronomer, Father Benedetto Sestini. This edition also includes Smyth's famous colour chart, an attempt to standardise the process of identifying double-star colours. Sidereal Chromatics ends with Smyth's plea to amateur astronomers to continue the effort of charting the heavens, aided by improved telescopes and works such as his, 'trustworthy treatises available to all men'.

Earl of Rosse, Birr Castle (armorial bookplate of Smyth to front pastedown), presented from the author and inscribed on front pastedown, 'Presented to Lord Rosse, F.R.S. etc. etc. etc. with the respects of Admiral Smyth & D. Lee, Hartwell, 10 December, 1864." ---- RARE FIRST EDITION, and one of a few copies printed for presentation, of the work on the color and brightness of stars, published one year before the author's death. William Henry Smyth was an admiral of the Royal Navy and a British astronomer. In 1817 he met the Italian astronomer Giuseppe Piazzi in Palermo and visited his observatory. This awakened his interest in astronomy. So in 1825 he took leave of the Navy and established a private observatory in Bedford, England. Smyth's Sidereal Chromatics can be regarded a landmark work in 19th century astronomy, providing the most precise observations of the colors of double stars ever recorded. The work provides both a theory of the origin of the colors of double stars and a method for describing them as accurately as possible. Detailed diagrams compare Smyth's measurements of more than one hundred double stars with his own previously published observations and those of his astronomy colleague, Father Benedetto Sestini. This edition also includes Smyth's famous color chart, an attempt to standardize the process of identifying double star colors. - Visit our website to see more images! Inscribed by Author(s).
