Revision 910996
Go back to digest for 18th January 2009Features in Educational
Akarsh Simha committed changes in /trunk/KDE/kdeedu/kstars/kstars:
+ Adding support for comet magnitudes.
KStars can now pick up H and G parameters (absolute magnitude and slope parameter) from the comets.dat file if present, and use them to calculate the magnitude of comets.
+ Fixing formula for comet and asteroid magnitudes
The formula used earlier was applicable only to 2P/Encke and was not general, and I had mistakenly put that in.
Now using the generic formula.
