Arago (Martian Crater)
Arago is an impact crater in the Arabia quadrangle on Mars at 10.22 N and 29.93° E. It is in diameter and is in the northernmost part of Terra Sabaea. Its name was approved in 1973 and refers to the French astronomer François Arago. Arago is highly eroded and subdued and is thus ancient. Arago is believed to have once held a giant lake that drained into the Naktong-Scamander-Mamers lake-chain system.Fassett, C. and J. Head III. 2008.

Arago Spot
In optics, the Arago spot, Poisson spot, or Fresnel spot is a bright point that appears at the center of a circular object's shadow due to Fresnel diffraction. This spot played an important role in the discovery of the wave nature of light and is a common way to demonstrate that light behaves as a wave. The basic experimental setup requires a point source, such as an illuminated pinhole or a diverging laser beam. The dimensions of the setup must comply with the requirements for Fresnel diffraction. Namely, the Fresnel number must satisfy F = \frac \gtrsim 1, where * is the diameter of the circular object, * is the distance between the object and the screen, and * is the wavelength of the source. Finally, the edge of the circular object must be sufficiently smooth. These conditions together explain why the bright spot is not encountered in everyday life. However, with the laser sources available today, it is undemanding to perform an Arago-spot experiment. In astronomy, t ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Arago Telescope
Arago telescope (''Lunette Arago'') is a 38 cm (15 inch) aperture refracting telescope at Paris Observatory, installed in 1857. François Arago, Francois Arago ordered this telescope from the telescope making firm Lebreours in 1839, and after a protracted development was completed by 1855. The name ''Lunette Arago'' (Arago refractor) is a modern name for the telescope, and other large refractor of Paris observatory, is the one at Meudon. It has gone by a variety of names having to do with various aspects of the telescope, such as its aperture, or location on the East tower of the Paris observatory, or its equatorial mount made by Brunner. In one journal report it was called the 'east equatorial' for example, in another instance '38 cm refractor'. In French language it has been called the ''La lunette équatoriale de 38 cm de l'Observatoire de Paris''.

Lycée Arago (Paris)
The lycée Arago is a Parisian secondary school and sixth-form located on place de la Nation. It teaches both general and technical education. It celebrated its centenary in 1980. History Built in 1880, the lycée Arago started as a higher primary school (EPS). Schools of this type were created by François Guizot under the law of 1833 to widen secondary education to those children from poorer families. The EPS in Paris particularly were real colleges. All the disciplines usually associated with the royal colleges were offered, apart from Greek and Latin, which were replaced by foreign languages. Students at the école Arago even received calligraphy classes. The Parisian EPS were a great success. They prepared students for schools such as the École supérieure de physique et de chimie industrielles de la ville de Paris, École de physique et chimie de Paris, the Arts et Métiers ParisTech, École nationale des Arts et Métiers, and the Normal school, École normale d'instit ...

Rings Of Neptune
The rings of Neptune consist primarily of five principal Planetary ring, rings. They were first discovered (as "arcs") by simultaneous observations of a stellar occultation on 22 July 1984 by André Brahic's and William B. Hubbard's teams at La Silla Observatory (ESO) and at Cerro Tololo Interamerican Observatory in Chile. They were eventually imaged in 1989 by the ''Voyager 2'' spacecraft. At their densest, they are comparable to the less dense portions of Rings of Saturn, Saturn's main rings such as the C ring and the Cassini Division, but much of Neptune's ring system is quite faint and Cosmic dust, dusty, in some aspects more closely resembling the rings of Jupiter. Neptune's rings are named after astronomers who contributed important work on the planet: Johann Gottfried Galle, Galle, Urbain Le Verrier, Le Verrier, William Lassell, Lassell, François Arago, Arago, and John Couch Adams, Adams. Neptune also has a faint unnamed ring coincident with the orbit of the moon Galatea (m ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
