A Disk Origin for the Monoceros Ring and A13 Stellar Overdensities

On the Accretion Origin of a Vast Extended Stellar Disk around the Andromeda Galaxy

We present the discovery of an inhomogenous, low-surface brightness, extended disk-like structure around the Andromeda galaxy (M31) based on a large kinematic survey of more than 2800 stars with the Keck/DEIMOS multi-object spectrograph. The stellar structure spans radii from 15 kpc out to ∼ 40 kpc, with detections out to R ∼ 70 kpc. The constituent stars lag the expected velocity of circular o...

the search for the self in becketts theatre: waiting for godot and endgame

this thesis is based upon the works of samuel beckett. one of the greatest writers of contemporary literature. here, i have tried to focus on one of the main themes in becketts works: the search for the real "me" or the real self, which is not only a problem to be solved for beckett man but also for each of us. i have tried to show becketts techniques in approaching this unattainable goal, base...

A molecular Einstein ring: imaging a starburst disk surrounding a quasi-stellar object.

Images of the molecular CO 2-1 line emission and the radio continuum emission from the redshift 4.12 gravitationally lensed quasi-stellar object (QSO) PSS J2322+1944 reveal an Einstein ring with a diameter of 1.5". These observations are modeled as a star-forming disk surrounding the QSO nucleus with a radius of 2 kiloparsecs. The implied massive star formation rate is 900 solar masses per year...

developing a pattern based on speech acts and language functions for developing materials for the course “ the study of islamic texts translation”

هدف پژوهش حاضر ارائه ی الگویی بر اساس کنش گفتار و کارکرد زبان برای تدوین مطالب درس "بررسی آثار ترجمه شده ی اسلامی" می باشد. در الگوی جدید، جهت تدوین مطالب بهتر و جذاب تر، بر خلاف کتاب-های موجود، از مدل های سطوح گفتارِ آستین (1962)، گروه بندی عملکردهای گفتارِ سرل (1976) و کارکرد زبانیِ هالیدی (1978) بهره جسته شده است. برای این منظور، 57 آیه ی شریفه، به صورت تصادفی از بخش-های مختلف قرآن انتخاب گردید...
