Getting Started in Amateur Astronomy
This document provides tips for getting started in astronomy without spending a lot of money. It recommends first going outside at night to see if you find the sky interesting before investing. Basic options that are inexpensive include using red flashlights to preserve night vision, getting a star chart or planetarium software, subscribing to astronomy magazines, and joining an astronomy club. Binoculars are suggested before a telescope as they are cheaper and easier to use. For telescopes, a larger aperture is most important for brightness, and trying before buying is recommended.

How to start observations of variable stars with a webcamera. A short review of the characteristic constellations and methods which allow us to find stars suitable for amateur observations in the sky.
First time telescope buying
- Buying a telescope without proper preparation can lead to disappointment. It's best to start with unaided eye observation to learn the night sky, then use binoculars before investing in a telescope.
- Most first time buyers expect more from their first telescope than what can realistically be achieved, like detailed photos of galaxies. Initial telescopes are best for viewing the moon, planets and bright objects.
- It's recommended to join an astronomy club and gain experience observing through different telescopes before determining one's needs and purchasing a first telescope. Rushing into a purchase can result in the telescope being unused.

Light
Light travels in straight lines from a source, such as the sun. When light hits an object, it can be reflected, absorbed, or pass through. Reflected light allows us to see objects, while absorbed light is what makes objects appear colored. Transparent materials allow light to pass through them, while opaque materials block light and cast shadows. The shape and size of shadows changes depending on the position of the light source and object. Lenses and mirrors can refract or reflect light to magnify or change its direction.
Observing space
The document discusses observing objects in space using telescopes. It begins by asking why we would want to observe space and provides a video link with possible reasons. It then describes how telescopes have developed over the years from early pirate telescopes to large modern ground and space-based telescopes like Hubble. Factors that control the effectiveness of ground telescopes are discussed. The best locations for large ground telescopes are analyzed based on latitude, population density, altitude and other factors. Finally, the document provides information about the Hubble space telescope, including how it works and examples of images it has captured.

ASTRONOMICAL MESSAGE
Which contains and explains recent observations made with the aid of a new spyglass concerning
the surface of the moon,the Milky Way, nebulous stars, and innumerable fixed stars,as well as
four planets never before seen, and now named
THE MEDICEAN STARS
Great indeed are the things which in this brief treatise I propose for observation and
consideration by all students of nature. I say great, because of the excellence of the subject itself,
the entirely unexpected and novel character of these things, and finally because of the instrument
by means of which they have been revealed to our senses. Surely it is a great thing to increase the
numerous host of fixed stars previously visible to the unaided vision, adding countless more
which have never before been seen, exposing these plainly to the eye in numbers ten times
exceeding the old and familiar stars. It is a very beautiful thing, and most gratifying to the sight,
to behold the body of the moon, distant from us almost sixty earthly radii, as if it were no farther
away than two such measuresso that its diameter appears almost thirty times larger, its surface
nearly nine hundred times, and its volume twenty-seven thousand times as large as when viewed
with the naked eye. In this way one may learn with all the certainty of sense evidence that the
moon is not robed in a smooth and polished surface but is in fact rough and uneven, covered
everywhere, just like the earths surface, with huge prominences, deep valleys, and chasms.
Again, it seems to me a matter of no small importance to have ended the dispute about the Milky
Way by making its nature manifest to the very senses as well as to the intellect. Similarly it will
be a pleasant and elegant thing to demonstrate that the nature of those stars which astronomers
have previously called nebulous is far different from what has been believed hitherto. But what
surpasses all wonders by far, and what particularly moves us to seek the attention of all
astronomers and philosophers, is the discovery of four wandering stars not known or observed by
any man before us. Like Venus and Mercury, which have their own periods about the sun, these
have theirs about a certain star that is conspicuous among those already known, which they
sometimes precede and sometimes follow, without ever departing from it beyond certain limits.
All these facts were discovered and observed by me not many days ago with the aid of a spyglass
which I devised, after first being illuminated by divine grace. Perhaps other things, still more
remarkable, will in time be discovered by me or by other observers with the aid of such an
instrument, the form and construction of which I shall first briefly explain, as well as the
occasion of its having been devised. Afterwards I shall relate the story of the observations I have
made. About ten months ago a report reached my ears that a certain Fleming had constructed a
spyglass by means of which vi.
Galileo's assistant
Galileo was convinced that the heliocentric model was correct, with the sun at the center of the solar system. To prove this, he observed Venus through his telescope and saw all phases, rather than just a crescent shape as the geocentric model predicted. He also discovered the four largest moons of Jupiter, showing that objects can orbit something other than Earth. Students take on the role of Galileo's assistant, using software to observe Venus and Jupiter as Galileo did in order to gather evidence supporting the heliocentric model.

Astro tortilla
AstroTortilla is software that automates astrophotography tasks like plate solving, polar alignment correction, and syncing a mount based on captured images. It works as a wrapper for other astrophotography tools, using captured images to determine the camera orientation and solve for the object being imaged. The document provides information on installing and configuring AstroTortilla, selecting the appropriate astrometric index files, testing the software using sample images, and the workflow for using it while imaging under the stars.

Equivariant neural networks and representation theory
Or: Beyond linear.
Abstract: Equivariant neural networks are neural networks that incorporate symmetries. The nonlinear activation functions in these networks result in interesting nonlinear equivariant maps between simple representations, and motivate the key player of this talk: piecewise linear representation theory.

The binding of cosmological structures by massless topological defects
Assuming spherical symmetry and weak field, it is shown that if one solves the Poisson equation or the Einstein field
equations sourced by a topological defect, i.e. a singularity of a very specific form, the result is a localized gravitational
field capable of driving flat rotation (i.e. Keplerian circular orbits at a constant speed for all radii) of test masses on a thin
spherical shell without any underlying mass. Moreover, a large-scale structure which exploits this solution by assembling
concentrically a number of such topological defects can establish a flat stellar or galactic rotation curve, and can also deflect
light in the same manner as an equipotential (isothermal) sphere. Thus, the need for dark matter or modified gravity theory is
mitigated, at least in part.

Applied Science: Thermodynamics, Laws & Methodology.pdf
When I was asked to give a companion lecture in support of ‘The Philosophy of Science’ (https://shorturl.at/4pUXz) I decided not to walk through the detail of the many methodologies in order of use. Instead, I chose to employ a long standing, and ongoing, scientific development as an exemplar. And so, I chose the ever evolving story of Thermodynamics as a scientific investigation at its best.
Conducted over a period of >200 years, Thermodynamics R&D, and application, benefitted from the highest levels of professionalism, collaboration, and technical thoroughness. New layers of application, methodology, and practice were made possible by the progressive advance of technology. In turn, this has seen measurement and modelling accuracy continually improved at a micro and macro level.
Perhaps most importantly, Thermodynamics rapidly became a primary tool in the advance of applied science/engineering/technology, spanning micro-tech, to aerospace and cosmology. I can think of no better a story to illustrate the breadth of scientific methodologies and applications at their best.

Phenomics assisted breeding in crop improvement
As the population is increasing and will reach about 9 billion upto 2050. Also due to climate change, it is difficult to meet the food requirement of such a large population. Facing the challenges presented by resource shortages, climate
change, and increasing global population, crop yield and quality need to be improved in a sustainable way over the coming decades. Genetic improvement by breeding is the best way to increase crop productivity. With the rapid progression of functional
genomics, an increasing number of crop genomes have been sequenced and dozens of genes influencing key agronomic traits have been identified. However, current genome sequence information has not been adequately exploited for understanding
the complex characteristics of multiple gene, owing to a lack of crop phenotypic data. Efficient, automatic, and accurate technologies and platforms that can capture phenotypic data that can
be linked to genomics information for crop improvement at all growth stages have become as important as genotyping. Thus,
high-throughput phenotyping has become the major bottleneck restricting crop breeding. Plant phenomics has been defined as the high-throughput, accurate acquisition and analysis of multi-dimensional phenotypes
during crop growing stages at the organism level, including the cell, tissue, organ, individual plant, plot, and field levels. With the rapid development of novel sensors, imaging technology,
and analysis methods, numerous infrastructure platforms have been developed for phenotyping.

ESR spectroscopy in liquid food and beverages.pptx
With increasing population, people need to rely on packaged food stuffs. Packaging of food materials requires the preservation of food. There are various methods for the treatment of food to preserve them and irradiation treatment of food is one of them. It is the most common and the most harmless method for the food preservation as it does not alter the necessary micronutrients of food materials. Although irradiated food doesn’t cause any harm to the human health but still the quality assessment of food is required to provide consumers with necessary information about the food. ESR spectroscopy is the most sophisticated way to investigate the quality of the food and the free radicals induced during the processing of the food. ESR spin trapping technique is useful for the detection of highly unstable radicals in the food. The antioxidant capability of liquid food and beverages in mainly performed by spin trapping technique.

Presented at June 6-7 Texas Alliance of Groundwater Districts Business Meeting
The debris of the ‘last major merger’ is dynamically young
The Milky Way’s (MW) inner stellar halo contains an [Fe/H]-rich component with highly eccentric orbits, often referred to as the
‘last major merger.’ Hypotheses for the origin of this component include Gaia-Sausage/Enceladus (GSE), where the progenitor
collided with the MW proto-disc 8–11 Gyr ago, and the Virgo Radial Merger (VRM), where the progenitor collided with the
MW disc within the last 3 Gyr. These two scenarios make different predictions about observable structure in local phase space,
because the morphology of debris depends on how long it has had to phase mix. The recently identified phase-space folds in Gaia
DR3 have positive caustic velocities, making them fundamentally different than the phase-mixed chevrons found in simulations
at late times. Roughly 20 per cent of the stars in the prograde local stellar halo are associated with the observed caustics. Based
on a simple phase-mixing model, the observed number of caustics are consistent with a merger that occurred 1–2 Gyr ago.
We also compare the observed phase-space distribution to FIRE-2 Latte simulations of GSE-like mergers, using a quantitative
measurement of phase mixing (2D causticality). The observed local phase-space distribution best matches the simulated data
1–2 Gyr after collision, and certainly not later than 3 Gyr. This is further evidence that the progenitor of the ‘last major merger’
did not collide with the MW proto-disc at early times, as is thought for the GSE, but instead collided with the MW disc within
the last few Gyr, consistent with the body of work surrounding the VRM.

Immersive Learning That Works: Research Grounding and Paths Forward
We will metaverse into the essence of immersive learning, into its three dimensions and conceptual models. This approach encompasses elements from teaching methodologies to social involvement, through organizational concerns and technologies. Challenging the perception of learning as knowledge transfer, we introduce a 'Uses, Practices & Strategies' model operationalized by the 'Immersive Learning Brain' and ‘Immersion Cube’ frameworks. This approach offers a comprehensive guide through the intricacies of immersive educational experiences and spotlighting research frontiers, along the immersion dimensions of system, narrative, and agency. Our discourse extends to stakeholders beyond the academic sphere, addressing the interests of technologists, instructional designers, and policymakers. We span various contexts, from formal education to organizational transformation to the new horizon of an AI-pervasive society. This keynote aims to unite the iLRN community in a collaborative journey towards a future where immersive learning research and practice coalesce, paving the way for innovative educational research and practice landscapes.
