Template:Starbox astrometry/doc

Usage[change source]

This template is part of a group of templates that are used to display information about a specific star. The list should always have {{Starbox begin}} as the first in the list, while the list should have {{Starbox end}} as the last in the list. Any of these parameters may be omitted. If all parameters that would be displayed on a given line are omitted, the line will be omitted from the infobox, except that, if dist_ly and dist_pc are omitted, but parallax is present, then the object's distance will be computed from parallax and, if present, p_error. For this calculation to work, footnotes and references for the parallax and its error should be placed in parallax_footnote rather than parallax or p_error. This particular template can be used as follows:

{{Starbox astrometry
 | radial_v = <!--Radial velocity (in km/sec)-->
 | total_v = <!--Total velocity (radial velocity combined with proper motion in km/sec)-->
 | prop_mo_ra = <!--Proper motion (RA), μ<sub>α</sub> cos δ (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | prop_mo_dec = <!--Proper motion (dec), μ<sub>δ</sub> (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | parallax = <!--Parallax (in milliarcsec)-->
 | p_error = <!--Parallax error (in milliarcsec)-->
 | parallax_footnote = <!--Parallax footnote-->
 | dist_ly = <!--Distance (in light years)-->
 | dist_pc = <!--Distance (in parsecs)-->
 | absmag_v = <!--Absolute magnitude ([[UBV photometric system|Johnson-Cousins V system]])-->
 | absmag_bol = <!--Absolute bolometric magnitude (accounts for emissions across all spectra of light)-->
 }}

However, you can use the following syntax for two stars:

{{Starbox astrometry
 | component1 = <!--Name of the first component-->
 | radial_v = <!--Radial velocity (in km/sec)-->
 | total_v = <!--Total velocity (radial velocity combined with proper motion in km/sec)-->
 | prop_mo_ra = <!--Proper motion (RA), μ<sub>α</sub> cos δ (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | prop_mo_dec = <!--Proper motion (dec), μ<sub>δ</sub> (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | parallax = <!--Parallax (in milliarcsec)-->
 | p_error = <!--Parallax error (in milliarcsec)-->
 | parallax_footnote = <!--Parallax footnote-->
 | dist_ly = <!--Distance (in light years)-->
 | dist_pc = <!--Distance (in parsecs)-->
 | absmag_v = <!--Absolute magnitude ([[UBV photometric system|Johnson-Cousins V system]])-->
 | absmag_bol = <!--Absolute bolometric magnitude (accounts for emissions across all spectra of light)-->
 | component2 = <!--Name of the second component-->
 | radial_v2 = <!--Radial velocity (in km/sec)-->
 | total_v = <!--Total velocity (radial velocity combined with proper motion in km/sec)-->
 | prop_mo_ra2 = <!--Proper motion (RA), μ<sub>α</sub> cos δ (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | prop_mo_dec2 = <!--Proper motion (dec), μ<sub>δ</sub> (in milliarcsec/yr)-->
 | parallax2 = <!--Parallax (in milliarcsec)-->
 | p_error2 = <!--Parallax error (in milliarcsec)-->
 | parallax_footnote2 = <!--Parallax footnote-->
 | dist_ly2 = <!--Distance (in light years)-->
 | dist_pc2 = <!--Distance (in parsecs)-->
 | absmag_v2 = <!--Absolute magnitude ([[UBV photometric system|Johnson-Cousins V system]])-->
 | absmag_bol2 = <!--Absolute bolometric magnitude (accounts for emissions across all spectra of light)-->
 }}

Note that hyphens are automatically replaced with minus signs. If you would like to use a hyphen, type the HTML entity (&#45;) instead.

The following templates are used together and are usually placed in the order listed below.

{{Starbox begin}}
{{Starbox image}}
{{Starbox observe}}
{{Starbox observe 2s}}
{{Starbox observe 3s}}
{{Starbox character}}
{{Starbox astrometry}}
{{Starbox orbit}}
{{Starbox detail}}
{{Starbox relpos}}
{{Starbox catalog}}
{{Starbox reference}}
{{Starbox sources}}
{{Starbox end}}
