 Royal Astronomical Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
It became the Royal Astronomical Society in 1831 on receiving its Royal Charter from William IV.
The society acts as the professional body for astronomers and geophysicists in the UK and fellows may apply for the Science Council's Chartered Scientist status through the society.
The Society represents the interests of astronomy and geophysics to UK national and regional, and European government and related bodies, and maintains a press office, through which it keeps the media and the public at large informed of relevant developments in these sciences.

 Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society (MNRAS) is one of the world's leading scientific journals in astronomy and astrophysics.
It is published by Blackwell Publishing on behalf of the Royal Astronomical Society (RAS) but, despite its name, is neither monthly (there are 36 issues a year) nor does it carry the notices of the RAS.
The first issue of MNRAS came out on February 9, 1827 (as Monthly Notices of the Astronomical Society of London) and it has been published continuously ever since.

 Astronomers use Hubble to weigh Dog Star's Companion
For astronomers, it's always been a source of frustration that the nearest white-dwarf star is buried in the glow of the brightest star in the night-time sky.
An international team of astronomers used the keen eye of the NASA/ ESA Hubble Space Telescope to isolate the light from the white dwarf, called Sirius B. The new results allow them to measure precisely the white dwarf's mass based on how its intense gravitational field alters the wavelengths of light emitted by the star.
Astronomers have long relied on a fundamental theoretical relationship between the mass of a white dwarf and its diameter.

 SPACE.com -- Universe Expansion is Accelerating, UK and Australian Researchers Say
A team of UK and Australian astronomers has discovered new, independent evidence that the expansion of the universe is accelerating.
Three years ago, two teams of astronomers rocked the scientific world by finding evidence that the expansion of the universe is accelerating rather than slowing down as had generally been expected because of the gravitational attraction between the matter within it.
The great Cambridge astronomer Sir Arthur Stanley Eddington was convinced of its existence, arguing that the cosmological constant distinguished between the vast size of the observable universe and the tiny scales of subatomic particles.

We present a method to map the artificial sky brightness across large territories in astronomical photometric bands with a resolution of approximately 1 km.
The artificial sky brightness present in the chosen direction at a given position on the Earth's surface is obtained by the integration of the contributions produced by every surface area in the surrounding.
I studied the growth rate of light pollution in the Veneto plain (Italy) analyzing archive measurements of sky brightness obtained in V, B and R bands at the Ekar Astronomical Observatory and at the Asiago Astronomical Observatory in the period 1960-1995.

 Rutgers astronomer sheds new light on dark matter
Benson, Baugh, Cole, Frenk and Lacey (Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 311, 793, 2001).
With the application of new computer analyses and gravitational theory, the astronomers have now been able to work out where the dark matter is. It is just what is to be expected if galaxies and dark matter are clustered in exactly the same way.
The findings are presented in a paper submitted to the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society with Verde as its lead author.

 ESA Science & Technology: Astronomers use Hubble to 'weigh' Dog Star's companion [heic0516]
New results published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society provide for the first time an accurate measurement of the weight of the nearest white dwarf, Sirius B, companion of the brightest star in the sky.
For astronomers, it's always been a source of frustration that the nearest white-dwarf star is buried in the glow of the brightest star in the nighttime sky.
Despite being the brightest white dwarf known, Sirius B is about 10 000 times fainter than Sirius itself, making it difficult to study with telescopes on the Earth's surface because its light is swamped in the glare of its brighter companion.

The astronomers´ discovery, being published in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, suggests that even though Tau Ceti is the nearest Sun-like star, any planets that may orbit it would not support life as we know it due to the inevitable large number of devastating collisions.
Publication of the result in Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society coincides with an exhibit ´Hunting for Planets in Stardust´ at the Royal Society Summer Exhibition by the same science team from the UK Astronomy Technology Centre in Edinburgh and the University of St. Andrews.

 Pushing Back the Frontiers of the Universe to the Era of the First Stars
Their results, which will be published in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, show for the first time, that astronomers may be probing back to the era when the first stars and galaxies were forming.
Having drawn up a list of objects that could be remote galaxies, the astronomers then turned to one of two Keck telescopes, which are the largest in the world and are at the top of the 14000 ft mountain of Mauna Kea in Hawaii.
This team of astronomers are currently building a new instrument in Cambridge called 'DAZLE', which will probe even earlier in the history of the Universe and shed new light on the 'Dark Ages'.

Intrigued by the fact that long-period comets observed from Earth seem to follow orbits that are not randomly oriented in space, a scientist at the Open University in the UK is arguing that these comets could be influenced by the gravity of a large undiscovered object in orbit around the Sun.
Writing in the issue of the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society published on 11th October, Dr John Murray sets out a case for an object orbiting the Sun 32,000 times farther away than Earth.
(One astronomical unit is approximately the average distance between the Earth and the Sun.) They reach Earth's vicinity in the inner solar system when their usual, remote orbits are disturbed.

 RedOrbit - Space - Giant Star Seen Swallowing Planets   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
In a letter soon to be published in the journal Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, Dr Alon Retter and Dr Ariel Marom from the Department of Physics suggest that this phenomenon is an expanding giant star swallowing nearby planets, an event which may one day befall our own planet.
Astronomers had previously been unable to explain a spectacular explosion that transformed a dim innocuous star into the brightest cool supergiant in the Milky Way.
The event was originally discovered by Australian amateur astronomer, Nicholas Brown in January 2002, when V838 Monocerotis suddenly became 600,000 times more luminous than our Sun.
