A revised shape model of asteroid (216) Kleopatra

Adaptive optics observations of asteroid (216) Kleopatra

The large main-belt asteroid (216) Kleopatra has been for long suspected to be a binary object, mainly due to its large lightcurve amplitude. However, recent observations suggest that it is a single “bone-shaped” or bi-lobated body (Ostro et al. 2000; Tanga et al. 2001). We present results obtained from ground-based adaptive optics observations, and in agreement with the radar raw-observations,...

HST/FGS Observations of the Asteroid (216) Kleopatra

Interferometric observations of asteroid (216) Kleopatra were performed in January 2000 using the Fine Guidance Sensors (FGS) aboard HST. The FGS data obtained clearly suggest that (216) Kleopatra is composed of two lobes in contact, in agreement with the radar data (Ostro et al. 2000, Science 288, 836–839), and provide more precise constraints on the absolute size of this peculiar object. c © ...

investigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures

deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...

validation of a revised logical-mathematical intelligence scale and exploring its relationship with english language proficiency

نظریه هوش چندگانه قسمتهای متفاوت هوش بشری را مورد بررسی قرار می دهد که با شناخت آن شخص به درک بهتری از توانایی های خود میرسد و در نتیجه سعی در استفاده از آن جهت یادگیری بهتر میکند. همچنین با شناخت استعداد دانش آموزان، فرایند یادگیری بهتر میشود. هدف از انجام دادن این تحقیق بررسی رابطه بین هوش ریاضی و استعداد یادگیری زبان انگلیسی میباشد. برای انجام این تحقیق از پرسشنامه هوش ریاضی که توسط شیرر در ...
