Stars are formed from the collapse of giant clouds of dust and gas in space. As the cloud collapses due to gravity, it heats up and eventually nuclear fusion begins in its core, forming a new star. Stars exist in different colors and sizes depending on their mass, with more massive stars being hotter, brighter, and having shorter lifespans than less massive stars. Eventually a star runs out of hydrogen fuel for fusion in its core, causing it to expand into a red giant and later die, leaving behind a white dwarf, neutron star, or black hole depending on its original mass.
Gravitational Wave Astronomy is a fascinating discovery made a few years ago that changed the notions of modern physics. This presentation won the 3rd Prize in the SPIE student chapter's Oral Presetation in my college.

How the concept was introduced by the astrophycists and examples that provide the base for the existence of dark matter. Basic introduction to types of dark matter according to standard cosmological theory.
Hey I'm DIVYA SHREE NANDINI. I'm here with my new presentation on Black Hole. I'm sure you'll find it interesting. well first thing what is black hole- "Black hole, cosmic body of extremely intense gravity from which nothing, not even light, can escape. A black hole can be formed by the death of a massive star. When such a star has exhausted the internal thermonuclear fuels in its core at the end of its life, the core becomes unstable and gravitationally collapses inward upon itself, and the star’s outer layers are blown away. The crushing weight of constituent matter falling in from all sides compresses the dying star to a point of zero volume and infinite density called the singularity." wanna know more about it then come with me. :)

'A star is a luminous sphere of plasma held together by its own gravity. The nearest star to Earth is the Sun. Many other stars are visible to the naked eye from Earth during the night, appearing as a multitude of fixed luminous points in the sky due to their immense distance from Earth. Historically, the most prominent stars were grouped into constellations and asterisms, the brightest of which gained proper names. Astronomers have assembled star catalogues that identify the known stars and provide standardised stellar designations. However, most of the stars in the Universe, including all stars outside our galaxy, the Milky Way, are invisible to the naked eye from Earth. Indeed, most are invisible from Earth even through the most powerful telescopes.'

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

2. The Birth and Death of Stars
What are Stars?
Stars are large balls of hot gas.
They look small because they are a long way
away, but in fact many are bigger and brighter
than the Sun.
The heat of the star is made in the centre by
nuclear fusion reactions.
There are lots of different colours and sizes of
star.
3. What is a Star?
A star is ball of
plasma undergoing
nuclear fusion.
Stars give off large
amounts of energy in
the form of
electromagnetic
radiation. X-ray image of the Sun
4. How are stars made?
Stars are made (or “born”) in giant
clouds of dust and gas.
Sometimes part of the cloud shrinks
because of gravity.
As it shrinks it becomes hotter and
when it is hot enough, nuclear
reactions can start in the centre…..
… and A Star is Born!
5. Watching stars being born
The Bubble Nebula
Here you can see the
old dust and gas being
blown away by the
heat of the new star.
6. What happens next?
Once nuclear fusion is producing heat in the
centre of the new star, this heats stops the rest of
the star collapsing.
The star then stays almost exactly the same for a
long time (about 10 billion years for a star like the
Sun).
The balance between gravity trying to make the
star shrink and heat holding it up is called
Thermodynamic Equilibrium.
7. The life of a star
During its “life” a star will not change very much.
However, different stars are different colour, size
and brightness.
The bigger a star, the hotter and brighter it is. Hot
stars are Blue. Smaller stars are less bright,
cooler and Red.
Because they are so hot, the bigger stars actually
have shorter lives than the small, cool ones.
8. The Birth of Solar Systems

and

9. The Birthplace of StarsThe space between the stars is not completely empty. Thin clouds of hydrogen and
helium, seeded with the “dust” from dying stars, form in interstellar space.
10. Hot Stars make their Nurseries glow

12. The Sword of Orion
The nearest great stellar nursery to us is the great Orion molecular cloud which is about 1000
light years away, and manufacturing thousands of stars. This is probably how the typical star is
made.
14. They look like little windsocks
The blast from the luminous stars is eating away at the little guys
15. A whole cluster of new stars is born before us
Orion in the near infrared
Disks in Orion
Hundreds of young stars, often with disks, have been seen.
16. The Young Star is Very Active
The magnetic flux is
hundreds of times
stronger than the Sun,
and huge starspots are
seen. The star itself is 3
times bigger.
18. How does a star “die”?
Eventually, the hydrogen (the “fuel” for the
nuclear fusion) in the centre of the star will run
out.
• No new heat is made and
gravity will take over and the
centre of the star will shrink.
• This makes the very outside of
the star “float up” and cool
down, making the star look
much bigger and redder - a
Red Giant star. Antares – a Red Giant
19. Within about 10 million
years, the birth-cloud is
shredded, and the disks
are dissipated.
The process of starbirth
has ended.
22. Nebula – Birth of Star
Stars are formed in a
Nebula.
A Nebula is a very large
cloud of gas and dust in
space.
23. Protostars
Gravity makes dense
region of gas more
compact
Soon take on a
definite shape and
are called protostars.
24. White Dwarfs
The pressure exerted on the
core by the outer layers does
not produce enough energy
to start carbon fusion.
The core is now very dense
and very hot. (A tablespoon
full would weigh 5 tons!)
A white dwarf is about 8,000
miles in diameter.
After 35,000 years, the core
begins to cool.
Planetary nebula around a
white dwarf star.
25. Black Dwarfs
As the white dwarf cools, the light it gives off will fade
through the visible light spectrum, blue to red to back
(no light).
A black dwarf will continue to generate gravity and low
energy transmissions (radio waves).
27. Supernova
When a Supergiant fuses all
of the Carbon into Iron, there
is no more fuel left to
consume.
The Core of the supergiant
will then collapse in less than
a second, causing a massive
explosion called a supernova.
In a supernova, a massive
shockwave is produced that
blows away the outer layers
of the star.
Supernova shine brighter
then whole galaxies for a few
years.Gas ejected from a supernova explosion
28. Black Holes
If the mass of the surviving core is greater than 3
solar masses, then a black hole forms.
A black hole is a core so dense and massive that it
will generate so much gravity that not even light can
escape it.
29. Energy Source for Stars
A really good question is `how do stars produce
all that luminous energy’
The answer should also naturally explain the
main-sequence and the mass-luminosity relation.
Let’s start with the Sun. Requirements are:
(1) L=4x1033 ergs/sec
(2) for ~4.5 billions years
30. The erg is a unit of energy equal to 10−7 joules.
