  2. Angular (web framework) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_(web_framework)

    Angular 2.0 was announced at the ng-Europe conference 22–23 October 2014. [16] On April 30, 2015, the Angular developers announced that Angular 2 moved from Alpha to Developer Preview. [17] Angular 2 moved to Beta in December 2015, [18] and the first release candidate was published in May 2016. [19] The final version was released on 14 ...

  3. Lunar distance (navigation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lunar_distance_(navigation)

    The lunar distance is the angle between the Moon and a star (or the Sun). In the above illustration the star Regulus is used. The altitudes of the two bodies are used to make corrections and determine the time. In celestial navigation, lunar distance, also called a lunar, is the angular distance between the Moon and another celestial body.

  4. Twilight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twilight

    However, at latitudes closer than 8°35' (between 81°25’ and 90°) to either Pole, the Sun cannot rise above the horizon nor sink more than 18° below it on the same day on any date, so this example of twilight cannot occur because the angular difference between solar noon and solar midnight is less than 17°10’.

  5. Angular distance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_distance

    Angular distance or angular separation is the measure of the angle between the orientation of two straight lines, rays, or vectors in three-dimensional space, or the central angle subtended by the radii through two points on a sphere.

  6. Angular diameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angular_diameter

    The angular diameter, angular size, apparent diameter, or apparent size is an angular separation (in units of angle) describing how large a sphere or circle appears from a given point of view. In the vision sciences , it is called the visual angle , and in optics , it is the angular aperture (of a lens ).

  7. Doomsday rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doomsday_rule

    The doomsday's anchor day calculation is effectively calculating the number of days between any given date in the base year and the same date in the current year, then taking the remainder modulo 7. When both dates come after the leap day (if any), the difference is just 365y + ⁠ y / 4 ⁠ (rounded down). But 365 equals 52 × 7 + 1, so after ...

  8. Hour angle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hour_angle

    The cosine of the hour angle (cos(h)) is used to calculate the solar zenith angle. At solar noon, h = 0.000 so cos(h) = 1, and before and after solar noon the cos(± h) term = the same value for morning (negative hour angle) or afternoon (positive hour angle), so that the Sun is at the same altitude in the sky at 11:00AM and 1:00PM solar time.

  9. Airy disk - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airy_disk

    where is the maximum intensity of the pattern at the Airy disc center, is the Bessel function of the first kind of order one, = / is the wavenumber, is the radius of the aperture, and is the angle of observation, i.e. the angle between the axis of the circular aperture and the line between aperture center and observation point.
