Abstract
The International Astronomical Union (IAU) celebrated its 100th anniversary in 2019. To celebrate the occasion, the organisation announced a campaign for countries to name exoplanets, that is planets outside of our solar system and their stars. A total of 113 countries and autonomous regions took part in the campaign, choosing names by way of public votes. The IAU announced the 225 names chosen at a press conference on 17 December 2019 and accepted these as official (alongside the scientific names already in use). Following a brief description of exoplanets, the study categorises the planet names according to onomastic aspects and offers an overview of the names submitted to the Hungarian committee.
期刊介绍:
Névtani Értesítő, founded in 1979, is a peer-reviewed journal of Hungarian onomastics. It is co-published by the Institute of Hungarian Linguistics and Finno-Ugric Studies of Eötvös Loránd University and the Society of Hungarian Linguistics. In the journal, the section “Articles” releases new research results; the section “Onomastics and Events” reports on current Hungarian and international works and professional events; the sections “Book Reviews” and “Reviews on Periodicals” review the latest publications of Hungarian and foreign specialized literature. The authors of the articles published in the journal are representatives of various fields of sciences, mostly researchers of Linguistics and of the related branches of Humanities and Social Sciences from Hungary and the neighbouring countries. Submitted papers go through a blind double peer-reviewing process. The journal Névtani Értesítő keeps up relations with several international onomastic journals, many of which regularly review its issues. The issues of the journal Névtani Értesítő are published in Hungarian, with English lists of contents and abstracts.
