Extractions: Lo strumento prende il nome di quadrante per la forma a quarto di cerchio, mentre murale sta a significare che esso è fissato solidamente ad un muro. Serve a determinare laltezza degli astri nellistante del loro passaggio in meridiano. Prima dellinvenzione della macchina a dividere, le divisioni della fascia circolare chiamata lembo, venivano incise a mano. Per garantire la massima esattezza nellincisione manuale delle graduazioni, e quindi evitare che errori nella suddivisione si ripercuotessero nelle misure di posizione, i quadranti murali venivano fatti di grandi dimensioni. Il quadrante della Specola è opera del celebre costruttore inglese Jesse Ramsden. Il raggio è di 8 piedi inglesi (244 cm), mentre il lembo è largo 4 pollici (circa 10 cm); in esso sono riportati due tipi di divisione: il bordo interno è graduato di 5 in 5 primi, secondo la divisione sessagesimale del circolo, mentre quello esterno è in 96 parti, ciascuna suddivisa in sedicesimi; sia la scala interna che quella esterna hanno lorigine alla base del raggio verticale. Langolo veniva letto su entrambe le scale, convertendo la misura esterna in gradi grazie ad apposite tavole di corrispondenza. Questa procedura consentiva la riduzione degli eventuali errori di misura. Il cannocchiale, scorrevole lungo il lembo, ha lunghezza focale pari a 87 cm e obiettivo acromatico di 70 mm di apertura; sul piano focale giace il reticolo filare per il preciso puntamento della stella osservata.

Tumbling Stone 1 - The Night Piazzi Discovered Ceres instruments. jesse ramsden was an instrumentmaker without peer, buthe was notorious for failing to produce on time. Piazzi persuaded http://spaceguard.ias.rm.cnr.it/tumblingstone/issues/num1/piazzi.htm
Extractions: Astronomer G. Piazzi Piazzi was born in 1746 in Valtellina (which at that time, was part of Switzerland). As a young man, Piazzi joined the Theatine Order, and afterwards taught mathematics in a number of Italian cities. In 1780 he was invited to take the chair of higher mathematics at the Academy of Palermo. Arriving at Palermo, Piazzi, although inexperienced in astronomy, expressed a wish to found an astronomical observatory: Palermo was further south than any existing European observatory and so offered access to regions of the sky inaccessible elsewhere. Piazzi accordingly set off for England where he might obtain good instruments. Jesse Ramsden was an instrument-maker without peer, but he was notorious for failing to produce on time. Piazzi persuaded him to attempt a 5ft vertical circle of unique design. The circle, which has been described as ``a masterpiece of eighteenth-century technology'', was twice abandoned by Ramsden, and he completed it eventually in August 1789 only because Piazzi himself was present in London - indeed, in Ramsden's workshop, and quite literally breathing down Ramdsen's neck as the work proceeded. The circle gave readings in azimuth by micrometer microscope, and readings in altitude by two diametrically opposed microscopes. The divisions on the circles were illuminated by an inclined silver mirror fixed to each microscope, and the wires in the telescope eyepiece by transmitting light from a small lamp through the hollow tube-axis.

He was, no doubt, trading on the very high reputation that Ramsden had built up over the years "Flat to the wall" bow front stick barometers of the late 18th and early 19th century

Museum quality, late 1600's or very early 1700's mariner's 3 draw telescope signed "Oliuo, Venezia" on the textured vellum main tube. This exceptional early telescope is constructed of vellum (hard paper suggestive of lambskin) with an embossed floral design fitted with end caps of decoratively turned horn with a telling early style "nipple" eye cup. The original simple optics are of the monochromatic type with turned boxwood retainers, producing a magnified upright image with a narrow field of view. Each of the three draws is marked with a ring at the point of focus to facilitate use. Amazingly both the objective and eyepiece screw-on dust covers are still present! These covers consist of turned horn caps which thread on to their respective ends. This incredible telescope is in an outstanding state of preservation for its age. It evidences expected wear and patina from use. The horn rings are sound and exhibit virtually no worming as is typical of such early material. This telescope measures exactly one foot long when closed and extends to 31 inches long at infinity. An extremely desirable early mariner's telescope with origins in the cradle of early navigation Venice, Italy!

Extractions: L'EVOLUZIONE DEL TELESCOPIO A RIFLESSIONE: DA NEWTON A LORD ROSSE di Fredi De Maria Fig. 1: Sir Isaac Newton Nuova Teoria sulla Luce e i Colori presentata alla Royal Society nel 1672, verrà definitivamente ed organicamente esposta, trent'anni più tardi, nel trattato " Optics ", dato alle stampe nel 1704. Allorché mise mano a tali esperimenti, Newton era ormai pronto ad andare oltre Cartesio e Keplero: perfettamente padrone del trattamento matematico della luce, come molti altri scienziati suoi contemporanei era estremamente interessato al perfezionamento delle lenti, per le quali, allo scopo di correggerne l'aberrazione sferica, Cartesio stesso aveva correttamente proposto curvature asferiche, e più precisamente paraboliche. Newton seguì la stessa via, e costruì diversi cannocchiali basati sulla rifrazione. Ma le ragioni che gli avevano suggerito l'acquisto di quel prisma, e gli esperimenti che ne seguirono, lo persuasero ad accantonare le sue ricerche sulle lenti. Lo spazio non consente di entrare nel dettaglio del suo racconto dell'esperimento grazie al quale pervenne alla comprensione e alla descrizione della natura della luce; quel che conta è che egli si rese conto dell'impossibilità di concentrare esattamente la luce bianca in un punto focale mediante una lente, dato che la distanza focale risultava diversa per ciascuno dei colori componenti la luce bianca stessa: di qui le fastidiose frange colorate (iridazioni) che si osservavano nelle immagini fornite da cannocchiali e microscopi. Benché le lenti asferiche fossero in grado di correggere l'aberrazione sferica, esse non avrebbero potuto fornire alcun aiuto nei confronti di quelle frange.
