Scientific paper

A list of astronomical nomenclature is presented. For each unit, the pertinent symbol is given together with the standard unit of each term. Formulas giving the relationship between the visible light received from two stars and their magnitudes, between luminous exitance and total radiant exitance, and between exoatmospheric illuminance and visual magnitude are shown along with magnitude data on planets, stars, and observational limits. Conversions from Jansky to W/sq cm wave number and W/sq cm microns, from any unit per wave number to the equivalent per wavelength interval, and from 556.92 GHz to microns or 1/cm are provided.
