Tools for Learning—Promoting Reflection for Student Teachers' Development of PCK
ABSTRACT This paper investigates how the coherent integration of three different tools for reflection during a science methods course can contribute to student teachers' planning and enactment of science teaching, that is, their development of pedagogical content knowledge (PCK).

Unveiling the Origins and Dynamics of the Hierarchical Triple Star System CN Lyn [PDF]
In this study, we present a detailed analysis of CN Lyn, an overlooked triple star system, by combining spectroscopic data from the literature, photometric Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite data, and kinematic techniques.

Survey and Modeling of Windblown Ejecta Deposits on Venus
Abstract Venus' thick atmosphere rotates in the same direction as the solid body, but ∼60 times faster. This atmospheric superrotation has produced dozens of windblown ejecta deposits (“parabolas”) on the surface of Venus. The formation and modification of parabolas is an interplay between impacts, aeolian modification, and atmospheric dynamics.

We use the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model (GCM) dynamical core, in conjunction with a Newtonian relaxation scheme that relaxes to a gray, analytical solution of the radiative transfer equation, to simulate a tidally ...

Molecular-Kinetic Simulations of Escape from the Ex-planet and Exoplanets: Criterion for Transonic Flow [PDF]
The equations of gas dynamics are extensively used to describe atmospheric loss from solar system bodies and exoplanets even though the boundary conditions at infinity are not uniquely defined. Using molecular-kinetic simulations that correctly treat the

Evidence for a Natural Limit to Electron Space Radiation: An Application of Benford's Law
Abstract Recent research has highlighted observational evidence for a natural limit to the severity of energetic electron differential fluxes in the Van Allen radiation belts. Here, we analyze the occurrence distributions of electron differential fluxes from the entire Van Allen Probes mission (2012–2019) to further investigate the energy dependence of

On the Measurement of Ocean Acidity With Ambient Sound
Abstract The volume‐integrated pH of seawater can be determined from the frequency and depth dependence of wind‐generated ambient noise in the ocean. Over the 1–10 kHz frequency band, three main processes contribute to the acoustic attenuation in seawater: the chemical relaxation of boric acid and magnesium carbonate (<3 kHz, related to pH) and of ...

The MgI line: a new probe of the atmospheres of evaporating exoplanets
Transit observations of HD209458b in the UV revealed signatures of neutral magnesium escaping the planet's upper atmosphere. The absorption detected in the MgI line provides unprecedented information on the physical conditions at the altitude where the ...

ATMOSPHERIX: III. Estimating the C/O ratio and molecular dynamics at the limbs of WASP-76 b with SPIRou [PDF]
Measuring the abundances of C- and O-bearing species in exoplanet atmospheres enables us to constrain the C/O ratio, which contains indications about the planet formation history.

Ancient Mars Climate With a Polar Ocean and Ice Sheet Dynamics
Abstract In this article, we study the conditions required to maintain a stable ocean on Mars 3 Ga using a new suite of simulations. These simulations couple a 3D Global Climate Model with ocean dynamics and ice sheet flow. The model includes the main processes of the atmosphere/hydrosphere/cryosphere to investigate Mars' ancient climate.
