Astrometry

Directory

This template is part of a group of templates that are used to display information about a specific star. The list should always have {{Starbox begin}} as the first in the list, while the list should have {{Starbox end}} as the last in the list. Any of these parameters may be omitted. If all parameters that would be displayed on a given line are omitted, the line will be omitted from the infobox, except that, if dist_ly and dist_pc are omitted, but parallax is present, then the object's distance will be computed from parallax and, if present, p_error. For this calculation to work, footnotes and references for the parallax and its error should be placed in parallax_footnote rather than parallax or p_error. This particular template can be used as follows:

{{Starbox astrometry
| radial_v = <!--Radial velocity (in km/sec)-->
| prop_mo_ra = <!--Proper motion (RA), μα cos δ (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
| prop_mo_dec = <!--Proper motion (dec), μδ (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
| parallax = <!--Parallax (in milliarcsec)-->
| p_error = <!--Parallax error (in milliarcsec)-->
| parallax_footnote = <!--Parallax footnote-->
| dist_ly = <!--Distance (in light years)-->
| dist_pc = <!--Distance (in parsecs)-->
| absmag_v = <!--Absolute magnitude (Johnson-Cousins V system)-->
}}

The following templates are used together and are usually placed in the order listed below.

{{Starbox begin}}
{{Starbox image}}
{{Starbox observe}}
{{Starbox observe 2s}}
{{Starbox observe 3s}}
{{Starbox character}}
{{Starbox astrometry}}
{{Starbox orbit}}
{{Starbox detail}}
{{Starbox relpos}}
{{Starbox catalog}}
{{Starbox reference}}
{{Starbox sources}}
{{Starbox end}}
