QUESTIONING the SUPER-RICH

the impact of cooperative questioning vs. self-questioning methods on the reading comperhension ability of iranian pre- intermediate efl learners

این تحقیق به بررسی تاثیر استفاده از روش پرسش مشارکتی در مقابل روش خود پرسشی بر توانایی خواندن زبان آموزان سطح پیش متوسطه ایرانی می پردازد. در این تحقیق تلاش شده تا متوجه شویم که آیا این استراتژی ها تاثیری بر روی توانایی خواندن زبان آموزان دارد یا نه و کدام یک تاثیر بیشتری دارد. بر این اساس 98 زبان آموز انتخاب و از طریق تست مهارتی ماک تافل همگن شدند. سپس محقق آنها را به سه گروه تقسیم کرد که این ...

Questioning the Equivalence Principle

The Equivalence Principle (EP) is not one of the “universal” principles of physics (like the Action Principle). It is a heuristic hypothesis which was introduced by Einstein in 1907, and used by him to construct his theory of General Relativity. In modern language, the (Einsteinian) EP consists in assuming that the only long-range field with gravitational-strength couplings to matter is a massl...

Optimal measures for characterizing water-rich super-Earths

The detection and atmospheric characterization of super-Earths is one of the major frontiers of exoplanetary science. Currently, extensive efforts are underway to detect molecules, particularly H2O, in super-Earth atmospheres. In the present work, we develop a systematic set of strategies to identify and observe potentially H2O-rich super-Earths that provide the best prospects for characterizin...

Lick Spectral Indices for Super Metal-rich Stars

We present Lick spectral indices for a complete sample of 139 candidate super metal-rich stars of different luminosity class (MK type from V to I). For 91 of these stars we were able to identify, in an accompanying paper (Malagnini et al. 2000), the fundamental atmosphere parameters. This confirms that at least 2/3 of the sample consists of stars with [Fe/H] in excess of +0.1 dex. Optical indic...
