Venus: Observations
Scientific paper
This report summarizes the results of an analysis of photo-visual observations submitted to the ALPO Venus Section by observers in Germany, Italy, and the United States throughout the 1999-2000 Western (Morning) Apparition. Data resources and types of telescopes (plus accessories) employed in making those observations are discussed, and comparative studies deal with observers, instruments, and visual and photographic data. The report includes illustrations and a statistical investigation of the categories of features in the atmosphere of Venus, including cusps, cusp-caps, and cusp-bands, seen or suspected at visual wavelengths, both in integrated light and with color filters. Terminator irregularities and the apparent phase are discussed, as well as coverage based on results from continued monitoring of the dark hemisphere of Venus for the Ashen Light.
