  Vogel, Hermann Carl   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
Vogel was born and educated in Leipzig and in 1863 began working at the observatory there.
Vogel worked intensively on the spectroscopic properties of planets, nebulae, the northern lights, comet III 1871, and the Sun, and examined the spectra of some 4,000 stars.
Vogel's discovery of spectroscopic binary stars arose from a study of the periodic displacements of the spectral lines of the stars Algol and Spica, eclipsing binary stars whose components could not, at the time, be detected as separate entities by optical means.

Hermann Carl Vogel was born in Leipzig on April 3, 1841.
Vogel now decided to specialize in spectroscopy, and in response to a proposal made by Angelo Secchi, he examined the spectra of some 4,000 stars.
From his spectrographs, Vogel determined the dimensions of this double star system, the diameter of both components, the orbital velocity of Algol, the total mass of the system, and in 1889 he derived the distance of the two component stars from each other.

Hermann Struve was a third-generation member of the famous family which had effectively controlled Pulkovo Observatory, near St. Petersburg, since its inception.
Vogel came to Potsdam in 1879, and from 1882 he was its Director, remaining so until 1907.
Vogel and Julius Scheiner are usually credited as being the first person to successfully use the Doppler shift to measure the radial velocities of stars - their work in this field caused a sensation in astronomy.

His great-great-grandfather, George Mitchell Seabroke, was an early pioneer in measuring the speeds of stars at the Temple Observatory, Rugby School, Warwickshire, in the 1880s.
His competitor at the time was Carl Hermann Vogel, who was the first to measure a star speed from a photograph in 1888.
Vogel was the director of the institute that later on became the AIP in Germany.

 Hermann W. Vogel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hermann Wilhelm Vogel (1834–1898) was a German photochemist and photographer who made key contributions to practical color photography.
From 1860 he was a professor at Berlin's Technische Hochschule (from 1879, the Technical University of Berlin), where he introduced photography as a field of study.
However the achievement of a fully panchromatic response, into the red, had to wait until fresh dye-discoveries, in the early 1900s, shortly after his death.

 Carl Justi
This caused one French journal to accuse German art history as little more than "trickery" in what it termed "Un faussaire boche." In 1900, the third of his critical/biographical monographs appeared, this one on Michelangelo.
After his death, the Carl Justi Vereinigung (Carl Justi Society) was founded "to provide a forum for mutual scholarly and personal exchange for those art historians who address Spanish, Portuguese and Latin American art history in their research." The Carl-Justi Straße in Bonn is named for him.
A major historian of the Gründerzeit (foundational era of modern Germany), he, like Hermann Grimm (q.v.), rejected an art history constructed around art movements or Hegelian philosophy, favoring instead biography.

 Week 7 Readings
Years earlier, Carl Wilhelm Scheele (1742-1786) had found that exposing silver chloride to light chemically reduced the compound, a reaction that was most effective when rays of violet light were used.
Ritter placed paper soaked with silver chloride in the path of a dispersed sunbeam and observed that, while the reducing action of the violet rays was considerable, it was even greater in the area of the paper immediately adjacent to and just beyond the violet end of the spectrum.
And, in 1887, Hermann Carl Vogel (1841-1907), by then director of the Potsdam Astrophysical Observatory, and Julius Scheiner (1858-1913) launched an intensive photographic study of stellar radial velocities.

 History of Modern Astronomy
While already ancient Greek Hipparchus had found the precession of the skies around 130 BC (which we now know to be a result of perturbations of Earth's motion by Sun and Moon), ancients had assumed that all stars are fixed at a unique distance on a sphere (therefore the term "fixed stars").
The first measurements of this effect were obtained in 1888 by Hermann Carl Vogel (1841-1907).
In 1944, Walter Baade discovered that the stellar population in different regions of galaxies varies and there are two different stellar populations: Young Population I in spiral arms and irregular galaxies, and old Population II stars in elliptical (and lenticular) galaxies, globular clusters, and the bulges and nuclei of spiral galaxies.

Designed and built by theAnglo-Australian Observatory, the 6dF instrument is a 'pick and place'robot that positions 150 fibres on the telescope's focal plane.
Using 6dF, astronomers can collect up to 600 stellar spectra per night.And by 2005 they plan to have 100,000 - five times as many as have beenmeasured since Hermann Carl Vogel started such work at the AstrophysicalObservatory Potsdam in 1888.
In 2006 the pace of data collection will pick up even further, when 6dFinstrument is replaced by a radical new instrument from the AAO -UKidna, with 2250 fibres mounted on independently movable spines.

 Algol, Beta Persei   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
He was the first to explain this correctly by the assumption that this variability might be caused by a darker companion which eclipses the brighter star of a binary system.
The binary nature of Algol was confirmed in 1889 by Hermann Carl Vogel (1841-1907) who found periodic Doppler shifts in the spectrum of Algol A (spectral class B8V), and the overlaying spectrum of the companion, Algol B, of type Am.
Algol A and B form a close binary system, the actual eclipsing binary, separated by only 10.4 million km.
