Index to references cited in Mulder's book

This index was compiled by Stephen Williams. I have re-formatted it; it should be tidier, but this version is already useful. Pages indicated with a lower-case “p” are pages in the citation; page numbers preceded by “PG” are the page in Mulder where they appear.

There are numerous errata we have detected in Mulder's book. They have been corrected in the above list. Where there were missing authors' names, I have supplied them in [square brackets].

One of the more peculiar errors is the mistaken reference to p. 56 of Arrhenius, on p.100 of Mulder's book. This error is copied directly from Kühl's paper. P.56 of Arrhenius's book discusses variable stars, and is clearly irrelevant. The green flash is discussed on p.856; but the item being referenced, namely the value of 29" for the dispersion at the horizon (which Arrhenius attributes to Montigny), does not appear there, but on p. 829.
