As we enter the high-precision era, it will play an increasingly important role in all areas of astronomy, astrophysics and cosmology. This edited text starts by looking at the opportunities and challenges facing astrometry in the twenty-first century, from space and ground. The new formalisms of relativity required to take advantage of micro-arcsecond astrometry are then discussed, before the reader is guided through the basic methods required to transform our observations from detected photons to the celestial sphere. The final section of the text shows how a variety of astronomical problems can be solved using astrometric methods. Bringing together work from a broad range of experts in the field, this is the most complete textbook on observational astrometry and is ideal for graduate students and researchers alike. 606 $aAstrometry 615 0$aAstrometry. 676 $a522 686 $aSCI005000$2bisacsh 702 $aVan Altena$b William F$g(William Foster),$f1939- 801 0$bUkCbUP 801 1$bUkCbUP 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910779343203321 996 $aAstrometry for astrophysics$93726185 997 $aUNINA
