| 8B10.10 | variable star simulation | PIRA 1000 | |
| 8B10.10 | variable star simulation | AJP 51(7),668 | A
ball eclipses a lamp. The output from a phototransistor is conditioned by
a ADC/microcomputer/DAC on the way to an oscilloscope display. |
| 8B10.11 | synthesized variable star | AJP 46(11),1197 | Use a PROM to store the curves for variable stars. No microprocessor, the curve is generated with a simple hardware circuit. |
| 8B10.11 | variable star simulator | AJP 44(12),1227 | A dimmer control is varied by a cam on a motor drive. |
| 8B10.11 | digital variable star | AJP 54(11),976 | A
simple circuit drives a lamp with data stored in EPROM to generate real light
curves from various types of variable stars. Also includes discussion of
a classroom photometer. |
| 8B10.12 | variable star simulation | PIRA LOCAL | Add abstract in Handbook.FM |
| 8B10.20 | stellar magnitude simulator | PIRA 1000 | |
| 8B10.20 | stellar magnitude simulator | AJP 46(8),813 | Six LEDs are adjusted so they appear to form a linear progression from dim to bright. The actual brightness is then measured. |
| 8B10.21 | 60 W sun | PIRA LOCAL | Add abstract in Handbook.FM |
| 8B10.30 | stellar diameter measurement | 35-2.13 | The
angular separation of two artificial stars is measured by the Michelson method
of measuring stellar diameters. Diagrams, Reference: AJP 27(2),101. |
| 8B10.30 | sunspot on the overhead | PIRA LOCAL | Add abstract in Handbook.FM |
| 8B10.40 | forward and backward scattering | PIRA 1000 | |
| 8B10.40 | forward and backward scattering | 8B10.40 | Clap erasers in front of and behind a clear 60 W lamp. |
| 8B10.50 | supernova core bounce | PIRA 500 | |
| 8B10.50 | supernova core bounce | TPT 28(8),558 | Use the double ball bounce to illustrate supernovae core bounce. |
| 8B10.51 | flashbulb supernova | PIRA LOCAL | Add abstract in Handbook.FM |
| 8B10.60 | pulsar recording | PIRA 1000 | |
| 8B10.65 | pulsar model | PIRA 1000 | |
