sidereal time and time scales

Sidereal Time is based on the Earth's sidereal rotation period (rotation with respect to the stars). The length of the sidereal day is 24 sidereal hours, or 23h56m4s Solar time. The difference is due to the angular motion of the earth around the Sun. In a year there is one more sidereal day than Solar day. The sidereal time is a measured locally. The local sideral time (LST) is the right ascension of the zenith. The hour angle HA of an object with right ascension RA is given by HA=LST-RA

GMST (Greenwich Mean Sidereal Time) at 0h UT = 24110.54841 + 8640184.812866 TU + 0.093104TU^2 - 6.2x10-6TUT^3 seconds

GAST (Greenwich Apparent Sidereal Time) = GMST + the equation of the equinoxes.
The Equation of the Equinoxes is the total nutation in longitude time the cosine of the true obliquity of the ecliptic. It ranges from +0.8 to +1.2 seconds.

LAST (Local Apparent Sidereal Time) is the hour angle of the ascending node of the ecliptic.

LMST (Local Mean Sidereal Time) = GMST - geodetic longitude.

Note: both the sideral and solar days are 86,400 seconds long. The sidereal second is shorter than the solar second by 0.997269566414 - 0.586x10-10TE

Right ascension is generally measured in units of time, not degrees of arc. 24 hours of time corresponds to 360 degrees of arc at the equator. Therefore,

    1h=15o/cos(δ)
    1m=15'/cos(δ), and
    1s=15"/cos(δ)

where δ is the declination of the target. You can use analogous formulae to convert degrees of arc to distances on the earth's surface.

Astropy's approach

get earth rotation table from IERS

to calculate apparent or mean sidereal time

use time functions, eg, .sidereal time, eg from UTC

so, it's time to worry about where to find "equation of equinox", "equation of time"

calculate pH of phosphoric acid

Question: adding 1/4 teaspoon of 10% phosphoric acid to 19 litres of water, what will be the pH? Let's go through the calculations step by step. Step 1. Convert mass ( or volume) of 10% phosphoric acid to mole per litre ( mol/L) The above calculation shows that 1/4 tsp of H3PO4 acid is 6.97e-5 mol/L Step 2. Input this value to BATE (or other app) to calculate pH The answer: pH = 4.16, ie too acidic !? If you use pipette instead of teaspoon, 1 drop = 0.05ml. So 1/4 TSP means roughly 25 drops If you actually aim for pH 5.6 (which is optimum pH for mashing), conc will be 2.51 e-6, or 1/100 tsp , 0.044 ml, roughly 1 drop Let's roll back a bit. From recipes of BarleyWine , summer rye , hefe Gordon Strong suggested to use 1/4 teaspoon of 10% phosphoric acid, which is targeting pH of 5.5..... Discussion on homebrewtalk forum. However using online BF water calc , Sparge pH would be 4.6. but he also added 1 tsp of CaCl2. 2H20. Mash pH change from 5.7 t...
