SELECTION OF DIGITAL TOOLS FOR ORGANIZING STUDENTS' GROUP WORK IN DISTANCE EDUCATION

open access: yesІнформаційні технології і засоби навчання, 2023
The transformation of classical education into distance education has become increasingly relevant, especially given the challenging conditions posed by the COVID-19 pandemic and military operations in our country.

AGB variables as distance indicators [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Astronomical Union Colloquium, 2004
AbstractEvidence for the existence of Mira Period-Luminosity relations is reviewed including recent work on Miras with thick circumstellar shells. The calibration of the relation at K is discussed in detail. The nature of variables deviating from the PL relation and possible metallicity effects are also discussed.

SALT2: using distant supernovae to improve the use of type Ia supernovae as distance indicators [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
We present an empirical model of Type Ia supernovae spectro-photometric evolution with time. The model is built using a large data set including light-curves and spectra of both nearby and distant supernovae, the latter being observed by the SNLS ...

Estimating Distances from Parallaxes. VI. A Method for Inferring Distances and Transverse Velocities from Parallaxes and Proper Motions Demonstrated on Gaia Data Release 3

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal, 2023
The accuracy of stellar distances inferred purely from parallaxes degrades rapidly with distance. Proper motion measurements, when combined with some idea of typical velocities, provide independent information on stellar distances.

ASTROPHYSICAL TESTS OF MODIFIED GRAVITY: CONSTRAINTS FROM DISTANCE INDICATORS IN THE NEARBY UNIVERSE [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
We use distance measurements in the nearby universe to carry out new tests of gravity, surpassing other astrophysical tests by over two orders of magnitude for chameleon theories. The three nearby distance indicators—cepheids, tip of the red giant branch

Travel Matrix Decomposition for Understanding Spatial Long-Distance Travel Structure

open access: yesComplexity, 2023
Mobile phone location data enable us to obtain accurate and temporally detailed long-distance travel distribution. However, the traditional long-distance travel distribution model cannot normally handle this detailed temporal information.

Local Distance Indicators [PDF]

open access: yesSymposium - International Astronomical Union, 2005
A summary is given of the calibration of the Cepheid scale required in the derivation of distances from observations at V and I, as in the HST work on extragalactic Cepheids. There is some evidence that a small metallicity correction may be necessary in deriving distances in this way.

Possible distance indicators in gamma-ray pulsars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Distance measurement of gamma-ray pulsars is a current challenge in pulsar studies. The Large Area Telescope (LAT) aboard the Fermi gamma-ray observatory discovered more than 70 gamma-ray pulsars including 24 new gamma-selected pulsars with almost no ...
