    The Uttar Pradesh State Observatory, Naini Tal and Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai plan to install jointly a 3 metre size optical telescope at Devasthal located east of Naini Tal about 50 km by road. The ...
  • Sky transparency over Naini Tal : A retrospective study 
    Kumar, B; Sagar, R; Rautela, B. S; Srivastava, J. B; Srivastava, R. K (Astronomical Society of India, 2000)
    We present an analysis of the atmospheric extinction coefficients measured during 1964 to 1999 in broad-band photometric passbands at U.P. State Observatory, Naini Tal. The extinction properties are also studied from the ...
  • SN 2002ap, the Hypernova of Class Ic 
    Pandey, S. B; Sahu, D. K; Anupama, G. C; Bhattacharya, D; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2003)
    The supernova SN 2002ap was discovered in the outer regions of the nearby spiral M74 on January 29.4 UT. Early photometric and spectroscopic observations indicate the supernova belongs to the class of Ic hypernova. Late ...
  • Study of the Galactic Cluster NGC 581 
    Sagar, R; Joshi, U. C (Astronomical Society of India, 1978-03)
    Photoelectric magnitudes and colours in the UBV system have been determined for 73 stars in NGC 581. The value of the interstellar reddening is 0m.38. The distance modules to the cluster is estimated at 12m.16 plus or ...
  • A study of the old galactic star cluster Berkeley 32 
    Richtler, T; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2001)
    We present new CCD photometry of the distant old open star cluster Berkeley 32 in Johnson V and Cousins I passbands. A total of ~ 3200 stars have been observed in a field of about 13? x 13?. The colour-magnitude diagram ...
  • Survey for roAp stars in the northern sky from Naini Tal 
    Ashoka, B. N; Seetha, S; Raj, E; Chaubey, U. S; Gupta, S. K; Joshi, S; Martinez, P; Kurtz, D. W; Sagar, R; Kasturirangan, K (Astronomical Society of India, 2000)
    Of the 31 known rapidly oscillating Ap (roAp) stars, 28 are in the southern sky and majority of them were discovered at SAAO indicating that a systematic survey also is needed in the northern sky. Therefore, a project has ...
  • Temporal behaviour of emissions from gamma-ray bursts and optical/near-IR afterglows of GRB 991208 and GRB 991216 
    Sagar, R; Mohan, V; Pandey, A. K; Pandey, S. B; Castro-Tirado, A. J (Astronomical Society of India, 2000)
    The CCD magnitudes in Cousins R and I photometric passbands are determined for GRB 991216 and GRB 991208 afterglows respectively ~ 1 and ~ 3 day after trigger of the corresponding gamma-ray bursts. Light curves of the ...
  • Testing the mechanisms for optical micro-variability of powerful active galactic nuclei 
    Gopal-Krishna; Sagar, R; Wiita, P. J (Astronomical Society of India, 1993)
    We present the first results of a new type of observational program being carried out using the 2.34m Vainu Bappu Telescope at Kavalur. This program involves intra-night optical monitoring of radio quiet but optically ...
  • UBV photoelectric photometry of the open cluster NGC 2539 
    Joshi, U. C; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of Indian, 1986-06)
    UBV photometric observations of 135 stars near NGC 2539, obtained using the 104-cm Sampurnanand reflector at Uttar Pradesh State Observatory during 1975-1978, are reported. The data are presented in tables and graphs and ...
  • UBVRI CCD photometry of the OB associations Bochum 1 and Bochum 6 
    Yadav, R. K. S; Sagar, R (Astronomical Society of India, 2003)
    We report the first deep $UBVRI$ CCD photometry of 2460 stars in the field of two poorly studied OB associations Bochum 1 and Bochum 6. We selected 15 and 14 probable members in Bochum 1 and Bochum 6 respectively using ...
