... The phases of the moon tell us what the moon looks like from one night to the next. For example, a full moon is when we see the entire disk of the moon, and a half moon is when we see only half of the disk. Question 4: Which of the positions in Figure 5 (A, B, C, or D) corresponds with the position ...

... Neodymium, a rare earth element, will be added to the liquid scintillator in SNO+ (at 0.1% by weight). This will enable a search for neutrinoless double beta decay of the isotope 150Nd. Discovery of this rare decay process would reveal whether neutrinos are their own antiparticles or not and can det ...

Meanwhile, the thermal gradient ∇ has decreased, so that, at present, Γ ∼ 1 (Bludman & Kennedy 1996). In the present inner core, P/ρ has a ...
