The solar system is made up of the Sun, the planets that orbit the Sun, their satellites, dwarf planets and many, many small objects, like asteroids and comets. All of these objects move and we can see these movements. We notice the Sun rises in the eastern sky in the morning and sets in the western sky in the evening. We observe different stars in the sky at different times of the year.

This is a presentation about our Earth's moon. It is extremely extensive and is wonderful for academic purposes. It's extremely easy to edit, and this is sure to get you that A+ you've been wanting.
As the moon waxes (the amount of illuminated surface as seen from Earth is increasing), the lunar phases progress through new moon, crescent moon, first-quarter moon, gibbous moon, and full moon. The moon is then said to wane as it passes through the gibbous moon, third-quarter moon, crescent moon and back to new moon.

Toxic effects of heavy metals : Lead and Arsenicsanjana502982
Heavy metals are naturally occuring metallic chemical elements that have relatively high density, and are toxic at even low concentrations. All toxic metals are termed as heavy metals irrespective of their atomic mass and density, eg. arsenic, lead, mercury, cadmium, thallium, chromium, etc.
Deep Behavioral Phenotyping in Systems Neuroscience for Functional Atlasing a...Ana Luísa Pinho
Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) provides means to characterize brain activations in response to behavior. However, cognitive neuroscience has been limited to group-level effects referring to the performance of specific tasks. To obtain the functional profile of elementary cognitive mechanisms, the combination of brain responses to many tasks is required. Yet, to date, both structural atlases and parcellation-based activations do not fully account for cognitive function and still present several limitations. Further, they do not adapt overall to individual characteristics. In this talk, I will give an account of deep-behavioral phenotyping strategies, namely data-driven methods in large task-fMRI datasets, to optimize functional brain-data collection and improve inference of effects-of-interest related to mental processes. Key to this approach is the employment of fast multi-functional paradigms rich on features that can be well parametrized and, consequently, facilitate the creation of psycho-physiological constructs to be modelled with imaging data. Particular emphasis will be given to music stimuli when studying high-order cognitive mechanisms, due to their ecological nature and quality to enable complex behavior compounded by discrete entities. I will also discuss how deep-behavioral phenotyping and individualized models applied to neuroimaging data can better account for the subject-specific organization of domain-general cognitive systems in the human brain. Finally, the accumulation of functional brain signatures brings the possibility to clarify relationships among tasks and create a univocal link between brain systems and mental functions through: (1) the development of ontologies proposing an organization of cognitive processes; and (2) brain-network taxonomies describing functional specialization. To this end, tools to improve commensurability in cognitive science are necessary, such as public repositories, ontology-based platforms and automated meta-analysis tools. I will thus discuss some brain-atlasing resources currently under development, and their applicability in cognitive as well as clinical neuroscience.

hematic appreciation test is a psychological assessment tool used to measure an individual's appreciation and understanding of specific themes or topics. This test helps to evaluate an individual's ability to connect different ideas and concepts within a given theme, as well as their overall comprehension and interpretation skills. The results of the test can provide valuable insights into an individual's cognitive abilities, creativity, and critical thinking skills
The ability to recreate computational results with minimal effort and actionable metrics provides a solid foundation for scientific research and software development. When people can replicate an analysis at the touch of a button using open-source software, open data, and methods to assess and compare proposals, it significantly eases verification of results, engagement with a diverse range of contributors, and progress. However, we have yet to fully achieve this; there are still many sociotechnical frictions.
Inspired by David Donoho's vision, this talk aims to revisit the three crucial pillars of frictionless reproducibility (data sharing, code sharing, and competitive challenges) with the perspective of deep software variability.
Our observation is that multiple layers — hardware, operating systems, third-party libraries, software versions, input data, compile-time options, and parameters — are subject to variability that exacerbates frictions but is also essential for achieving robust, generalizable results and fostering innovation. I will first review the literature, providing evidence of how the complex variability interactions across these layers affect qualitative and quantitative software properties, thereby complicating the reproduction and replication of scientific studies in various fields.
I will then present some software engineering and AI techniques that can support the strategic exploration of variability spaces. These include the use of abstractions and models (e.g., feature models), sampling strategies (e.g., uniform, random), cost-effective measurements (e.g., incremental build of software configurations), and dimensionality reduction methods (e.g., transfer learning, feature selection, software debloating).
I will finally argue that deep variability is both the problem and solution of frictionless reproducibility, calling the software science community to develop new methods and tools to manage variability and foster reproducibility in software systems.

Earliest Galaxies in the JADES Origins Field: Luminosity Function and Cosmic ...Sérgio Sacani
We characterize the earliest galaxy population in the JADES Origins Field (JOF), the deepest
imaging field observed with JWST. We make use of the ancillary Hubble optical images (5 filters
spanning 0.4−0.9µm) and novel JWST images with 14 filters spanning 0.8−5µm, including 7 mediumband filters, and reaching total exposure times of up to 46 hours per filter. We combine all our data
at > 2.3µm to construct an ultradeep image, reaching as deep as ≈ 31.4 AB mag in the stack and
30.3-31.0 AB mag (5σ, r = 0.1” circular aperture) in individual filters. We measure photometric
redshifts and use robust selection criteria to identify a sample of eight galaxy candidates at redshifts
z = 11.5 − 15. These objects show compact half-light radii of R1/2 ∼ 50 − 200pc, stellar masses of
M⋆ ∼ 107−108M⊙, and star-formation rates of SFR ∼ 0.1−1 M⊙ yr−1
. Our search finds no candidates
at 15 < z < 20, placing upper limits at these redshifts. We develop a forward modeling approach to
infer the properties of the evolving luminosity function without binning in redshift or luminosity that
marginalizes over the photometric redshift uncertainty of our candidate galaxies and incorporates the
impact of non-detections. We find a z = 12 luminosity function in good agreement with prior results,
and that the luminosity function normalization and UV luminosity density decline by a factor of ∼ 2.5
from z = 12 to z = 14. We discuss the possible implications of our results in the context of theoretical
models for evolution of the dark matter halo mass function.
Seminar of U.V. Spectroscopy by SAMIR PANDASAMIR PANDA
Spectroscopy is a branch of science dealing the study of interaction of electromagnetic radiation with matter.
Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy refers to absorption spectroscopy or reflect spectroscopy in the UV-VIS spectral region.
Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy is an analytical method that can measure the amount of light received by the analyte.
2. Section One- Earth
• A.Properties of Earth- people used to think that Earth was flat and at
the center of the universe
• 1.Earth is now known to be a round, three-dimensional sphere
• a. Axis- imaginary vertical line around which Earth spins
• b. Rotation- the spinning of Earth around its axis that causes day
and night
• 2.Earth has a magnetic field with north and south poles
• 3.Magnetic axis- imaginary line joining Earth’s magnetic poles
• a. Earth’s magnetic axis does not align with its rotational axis
• b. The location of the magnetic poles slowly changes over time
3. Section One- Earth
B.Causes of seasons
1.Revolution- Earth’s yearly orbit around the Sun
• a. Earth’s orbit is an ellipse, or elongated closed curve.
• b. Because the Sun is not centered in the ellipse, the distance
between Earth and the Sun changes during the year
2.Earth’s tilt causes seasons
• a. The hemisphere tilted towards the Sun receives more daylight
hours that the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun
• b. The longer the period of sunlight is one reason summer is
warmer than winter
4. Section One- Earth
3.Earth’s tilt causes the Sun’s radiation to strike the hemispheres at different angles
• a. The hemisphere tilted toward the Sun receives more total solar
radiation the hemisphere tilted away from the Sun
• b. In the hemisphere tilted toward the Sun, the Sun appears high
in the sky and the radiation strikes Earth more directly
C.Solstice- the day when the Sun reached its greatest distance
north or south of the equator
1.Summers solstice occurs June 21 or 22 in the northern hemisphere
2.Winter solstice occurs December 21 or 22 in the northern hemisphere
5. Section One- Earth
D. Equinox- the day when the Sun is directly over Earth’s equator
1.Daylight and nighttime hours are equal all over the world
2.Vernal (Spring) equinox occurs on March 20 or 21 in the northern
hemisphere
3.Autumnal (Fall) equinox occurs on March 22 or 23 in the northern
hemisphere
6. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
A.Motions of the Moon
1.The Moon rotates on its axis
2.The Moon’s rotation takes 27.3 days with the same side always facing the Earth
3.The Moon seems to shine because it reflects sunlight
7. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
B.Moon Phases- the different forms the Moon takes in its
appearance from Earth
1.New Moon- when the Moon is between Earth and the Sun and cannot be seen
2.Waxing Phases- more of the illuminated half of the Moon that can be seen each
night after the new moon
• a. First visible thin slice of the moon is a waxing crescent
• b. First quarter phase- half the lighted side of the Moon is visible
• c. Waxing gibbus- more than one quarter is visible
• d. All of the Moon’s lighted side is visible during a full moon
8. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
3.Waning Phases- less of the illuminated half of the Moon is visible after the full
moon
• a. Waning gibbus- starts after a full moon when more than half of
the lighted side is still visible
• b. Only half of the Moon’s lighted side is visible during the third
quarter phase
• c. The last visible slice before a new moon is called the waning
crescent
4.The Moon completes its cycle of phases in about 29.5 days instead of 27.3 days
because it is keeping up with the Earth’s revolution around the Sun
9. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
C.Eclipse- when Earth or the Moon casts a shadow on the other
1.Solar Eclipse- the Moon moved directly between Earth and the Sun, shadowing
part of Earth
• a. Under the umbra, or darkest part of the shadow, a total solar
eclipse occurs
• b. A partial solar eclipse happens in the lighter shadow on Earth’s
surface called the penumbra
• c. A total solar eclipse is visible only on a small area of Earth
10. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
2.Lunar Eclipse- when Earth’s shadow falls on the Moon
• a. If the Moon is completely in Earth’s umbra, a total lunar eclipse
occurs
• b. Partial lunar eclipse- when only part of the Moon moved into
Earth’s umbra, or the moon is totally in the penumbra
• c. A total lunar eclipse is visible on the night time side of Earth
when the night is clear
11. Section Two- The Moon- Earth's
Satellites
D.The Moon’s surface has many depressions, or craters, formed
from meteorites, asteroids, and comets.
1.Cracks in the Moon’s crust caused lava to fill large craters, forming maria, or
dark, flat areas
2.Igneous maria rocks are 3 to 4 billion years old, indicating craters formed after
the surface cooled
E.Data from moon quakes suggest that under the Moon’s crust
might lie a solid mantle, then a partly molten mantle and solid core.
F.Impact Theory of the Moon Origin- the Moon formed billions of
years ago from Earth material thrown off when a large object
collided with Earth
12. Section Three- Exploring Earth's
Moon
A.Missions to the Moon
1. Early exploration

1.Data from Clementine yielded a map of the Moon showing its composition
• a. Moon’s crust is thinnest under its impact basins
• b. The crust on the side of the Moon facing the Earth is thinner
than on the far side
2.The Lunar Prospector was launched in 1998 to look for clues about the Moon’s
origin and makeup
• a.Showed hydrogen might exist in ice in crates at the Moon’s
poles
• b.Small, iron-rich core of the Moon supports the impact theory of
the Moon’s origin
