Photoelectric Astrolabe, Star Catalogue, Earth Rotation Measurements

Scientific paper

An international cooperation on the Photoelectric Astrolabe Mark I (PHA I) between Shaanxi Astronomical Observatory (CSAO) and East-Siberian Research Institute for Physics Technical and Radio Engineering Measurements (VS NIIFTRI) started to make observations in Irkutsk, Russia on Nov. 3, 1995. The main purpose of the cooperation focuses on star catalogue and Earth rotation measurements. By the end of May, 2000, three observing programs had been completed, obtaining the data of 2763 groups observed in 777 clear nights. Based on these data, an astrolabe catalogue has been compiled, which is freed of any blind zone in declination determination (which usually exists for almost all the other astrolabe catalolgues). The catalogue contains positions of 817 stars and 24 radio stars with averaging precision of +/-2.1 ms in right ascension and +/-0.029" in declination. Some systematic errors have been analysed.
