Extreme color–magnitude variability: Connection to changing-look active galactic nuclei

open access: yesAstronomy & Astrophysics
Context. Changing-look active galactic nuclei (CL-AGNs) challenge the unified model of AGNs and offer key insights into the physics of the accretion processes of super-massive black holes.

Kinds of Astronomy-5

open access: yes, 2001
Astronomers study light and basically, almost everything we know about the universe has been figured out through the study of light gathered by telescopes on the earth, in the earth's atmosphere, and in space.

Synthesis of Bulk Superconducting LiNbO2 Crystals Through CaH2 Reduction

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
CaH2 reduction reconstructively transforms insulating LiNbO3 single crystals into superconducting bulk LiNbO2 with a critical temperature of Tc = 14.4 K. Scanning electron microscopy reveals large‐volume, high‐yield phase conversion. Magnetization measurements demonstrate a robust ∼ 77% Meissner shielding fraction, establishing bulk superconductivity ...

Chiral Phonon–Driven Ultrafast Spin Currents in a Non‐Magnetic Ferroelectric

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Broadband terahertz emission spectroscopy shows signatures of ultrafast spin‐current generation in non‐magnetic ferroelectric β$\beta$’‐In2Se3${\rm In}_2{\rm Se}_3$. Reversal of the emitted field upon sample inversion and substitution of Pt with W indicates spin‐Hall‐mediated charge conversion, while polarization‐resolved measurements reveal ...

Development Of Astronomy Education In India

open access: yes, 1997
Education in astronomy starts early in India. Science texts at prim.my, middle and secondary levels have units on astronomy. However, these units are generally skipped because the schools lack appropriate manpower and material.

Astronomy Education Research Down Under [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
A review of research conducted in Australasia into students' concept development in astronomy identifies a number of learning difficulties pertinent to astronomy, such as the lack of prior knowledge, intuitive or naive beliefs, juxtaposition and frames ...

Wafer‐Scale Direct Growth of Ultraclean Monolayer Amorphous Carbon on c‐Sapphire by Remote Catalytic Dehydrogenation

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Remote catalytic dehydrogenation enables the direct growth of monolayer amorphous carbon on a 2‐inch sapphire wafer by thermal CVD. Spatial separation of the catalyst from the growth substrate eliminates metallic residue and post‐growth processing, yielding a wafer‐scale uniform film with a random polygonal sp2‐hybridized carbon network that exhibits ...

Astronomy, technology development and industry

open access: yes, 2009
Astronomy is perhaps the best example of fundamental research aiming to increase our knowledge well beyond our human neighborhood. But astronomy is also a Big Science, which is partly technology-driven.
