Publisher's Synopsis
""Determination Of The Solar Parallax: From Photographs Of Eros Made With The Crossley Reflector Of The Lick Observatory, University Of California (1910)"" is a scientific book written by Charles Dillon Perrine. The book is focused on the determination of the solar parallax, which is the apparent shift in the position of the sun when viewed from different points on Earth's orbit. The author uses photographs of the asteroid Eros, taken with the Crossley Reflector at the Lick Observatory, to measure the solar parallax. The book provides a detailed description of the methods used to obtain the measurements and the calculations involved.
