... Primary Schools . ... Armagh Planetarium is a registered Discover Science Centre under the Discover Primary Science program which is being run in conjunction with Discover Science and Engineering. We offer a workshop for any primary school from the Republic of Ireland registered as a DPS school entitled тАШCosmic CollisionsтАЩ. ... In 'Cosmic Collisions' students are taken on a tour of the Solar System before exploring the effects and results of comets and asteroids smashing into planets. ...

Asteroseismology - the study of stellar oscillations - is a powerful tool to probe the structure and evolution of stars. In addition to the large number of newly discovered exoplanets, space-based telescopes such as Kepler have revolutionized asteroseismology by detecting oscillations in thousands of stars from the main sequence to the red-giant branch. In this talk I will highlight recent asteroseismic discoveries by Kepler, focusing in particular on exoplanet host stars. ...

... 4a. Electric Fluid . ... Matter consists of atoms, and atoms consist of electrically charged components--lightweight negative electrons , and positive nuclei . ... In one end we embed a metal coil of wire (like that of a flashlight bulb) in the other a metal plate, as drawn. ... As the wire begins to glow, a current begins to flow, because now negatively charged particles are emitted from the hot wire, are attracted to the positive charge on the plate and by doing so, complete the electrical circuit...

... The Impact of HST on European Astronomy . ... These range from the study of nearby planets, the processes of star and planet formation, the stellar and interstellar components of galaxies, the discovery that most, if not all, galactic nuclei harbor a massive black hole that profoundly affects their evolution, to the realisation that the universe as a whole is undergoing acceleration as a result of a yet unknown form of dark energy . ...
