Despite occurring in gal- ies many millions of light-years away,amateur telescopes can reveal these colossal explosions,and even discover them. In the past 25 years,the amateur astronomer’s contribution to supernova research has been staggering. Visual variable star observers with access to large-aperture amateur telescopes have contributed a steady stream of magnitude estimates of the brightest and closest supernovae. In addition, with the increasing availability of robotic telescopes and CCD techn- ogy, more and more amateurs are discovering supernovae from their backyards. Worldwide, there have been more than 400 supernovae discovered by amateur astronomers using amateur telescopes. Supernova research has never been so important. Recent professional measurements of the most distant Type Ia sup- novae have revealed the staggering and unexpected discovery that the acceleration of the Universe is actually increasing! This,in turn,has led to a new phrase, dark energy,entering the astronomical vocabulary; a mysterious force,in opposition to gravity, | 出版日期 | Book 2007 | 关键词 | Galaxy; Star; astronomy; discovering supernovae; guide supernova observing; observing supernova remnants; | 版次 | 1 | doi | https://doi.org/10.1007/978-0-387-46269-1 | isbn_softcover | 978-0-387-35257-2 | isbn_ebook | 978-0-387-46269-1Series ISSN 1611-7360 Series E-ISSN 2197-6546 | issn_series | 1611-7360 | copyright | Springer-Verlag New York 2007 |
