Current Status of VHE Astronomy
Very-high-energy astronomy studies the Universe at energies between 30 GeV and 100 TeV. The past decade has seen enormous progress in this eld. There are now at least seven known sources of VHE photons. By studying these objects in the VHE regime one can begin to understand the environments surrounding these objects, and how particle acceleration is realized in nature. In addition the photon be...
متن کاملThe current status of major tick borne diseases in Zambia.
Tick-borne diseases occurring in Zambia are assuming more importance as they continue to be a major economic problem not only in Zambia, but in many parts of Eastern, Southern and Central Africa. The current control methods, which include the use of toxic acaricides to kill ticks, and the virulent sporozoite infection and treatment method have limitations. Recombinant vaccines, currently in the...
متن کاملThe Revolution in Astronomy Education
As our capacity to study ever-expanding domains of our science has increased (including the time domain, non-electromagnetic phenomena, magnetized plasmas, and numerous sky surveys in multiple wavebands with broad spatial coverage and unprecedented depths), so have the horizons of our understanding of the Universe been similarly expanding. This expansion is coupled to the exponential data delug...
متن کاملDigital Astronomy in Education
Astronomical phenomenons involve often complex concepts and their explanation requires always the development of several levels of representation. It would be indeed difficult to explain for example, the concept of the austral seasons, in absence of representations as shown in Figure 1. Without graphical representations, our understanding would be imperfect since the volume of information provi...
