  • Measurement of Solar Magnetic Fields 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C; Balasubramaniam, K. S (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1986)
    The paper reviews several methods of estimation of solar magnetic fields so far employed. The possibility of measurement of the vector magnetic fields by using two dimensional detector arrays is discussed. A program for ...
  • Measurement of vector magnetic fields. I - Theoretical approach to the instrumental polarisation of the Kodaikanal Solar Tower 
    Balasubramaniam, K. S; Venkatakrishnan, P; Bhattacharyya, J. C (D. Reidel Publishing Co., 1985-09)
    The observations of Stokes line profiles require an accurate knowledge of the instrumental polarisation caused by optical components in the path of the light beam. In this context we present a theoretical approach to the ...
  • The Microprocessor control of the Kavalur 234-cm optical telescope 
    Chinnappan, V; Bhattacharyya, J. C (Astronomical Society of India, 1985-06)
    This paper gives an introduction to the control system of the 234-cm optical telescope. The computer used in control is based on an INTEL 16 bit microprocessor. The VAX 11/780 system has a supervisory role in the control ...
  • Minor planets and planetary rings 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (Centre of Advanced Study in Astronomy Osmania University, 1984)
    Circumstances of the discovery of the first asteroid and the characteristics of various orbits followed by them have been discussed. Their shapes, compositions and evolutionary histories so far known have also been described. ...

    Bhattacharyya, J. C (Astronomical Society of India, 1997)
  • My encounter with astronomy : later years 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (Astronomical Society of India, 1997)
  • New Instrumentation efforts in Solar studies 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (Indian Institute of Astrophysics, Bangalore, 1988)
  • A new satellite of Uranus 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C; Kuppuswamy, K (Nature Publishing Group, 1977-05)
    During the observation of the occultation of the star SAO 158687 by Uranus on March 10, 1977, there occurred an unexpected event which suggests the existence of a hitherto unknown satellite of the planet. On the basis of ...
  • New telescopes in India 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (D. Reidel Publishing Co., 1986-01)
    The review covers the description and present status of the two optical/infrared telescopes designed and presently near fabrication in India. The 234 cm aperture optical telescope expected to be installed at Kavalur shortly ...

    Sharma, P. D; Nagaraja, V. B; Marar, K. T. M; Bhattacharyya, J. C; Mohin, S (IUPAP, 1981)
    High speed photometric observations of X-per, and SCO X-1 have been carried out during 1979-80 with the 102cm and 33cm telescope at the Kavalur observatory. Results from some of these observations are presented in this ...
  • Observations of X-Per in optical domain 
    Sharma, D. P; Nagaraja, B. V; Bhattacharyya, J. C; Mohin, S; Raveendran, A. V (Kluwer Academic Publishers, 1983-09)
    We have monitored the X-ray source X-Per (4U 0352+30) on 31 August, 1979 through aU filter for about 1.5 hr using 102-cm telescope of Kavalur observatory. During this period intensity of X-Per fluctuated for some time, on ...
  • Observing conditions for optical astronomy at Leh 
    Singh, J; Bhattacharyya, J. C; Babu, G. S. D; Ashoka, B. N; Appakutty, M; Rangarajan, K. E; Kutty, K. N; Moorthy, V; Selvakumar, G; Michael, P; Muniyandi, A; Gabriel, F (Astronomical Society of India, 1989-09)
    The sky and atmospheric conditions at Leh have been monitored since 1984 with a view to determining its suitability as a site for a high-altitude observatory. During May-November, 1987, relative humidity and other parameters ...
  • Occultation: A precise method in astronomical studies 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1982-05-09)
  • On emission lines of hydrogen, helium and ionized calcium seen on a coronal spectrogram of the march 7, 1970 eclipse 
    Bappu, M. K. V; Bhattacharyya, J. C; Sivaraman, K. R (D. Reidel Publishing, 1972-10)
    Emission lines of the Balmer series, D3 and H and K are reported present on a coronal spectrogram obtained at the March 7, 1970 eclipse. Arguments are presented to show that these could not have originated from scattering ...
  • Optical telescopes in India 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C (National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources, 1989-08)
    Fabrication and use of optical telescopes for astronomical observations in India have been reviewed. Evolution of telescopes, their optics, mounting and drive system leading to large aperture instruments of today has been ...
  • Outer rings of Saturn 
    Bhattacharyya, J. C; Vasundhara, R (Indian Academy of Sciences, 1985)
    A two component model of a possible ring structure at about 12.5 Saturn radii is presented here which can explain the shapes of the immersion and emersion occultation profiles obtained during the occultation of SAO 158913 ...
