What are Minute sidereal and Year Julian

Definition of Minute sidereal

A Minute Sidereal is a measure of time based on the Earth's rotation relative to the stars rather than the sun. It is approximately 60 seconds long but is slightly shorter than the standard solar minute due to the Earth's orbital motion around the sun.

Definition of Year Julian

A Year Julian is a time unit used in astronomy that equals exactly 365.25 days. This accounts for the additional quarter-day it takes for the Earth to complete an orbit around the sun, which is factored into the Julian calendar to maintain seasonal alignment.
