The night after the John Glenn program, I pitched the terraforming idea to my students. I asked them if they'd like to terraform Mars as a big class project; I wanted to throw the idea to them and see how they would react. Already I had a vision of splitting the class into several groups and having each group take charge of a portion of the project. ... Following my initial idea on how to conduct the project, I split the class into six groups, each student choosing his or her group. ...

... More than 300 surface reconstructions are already known for pure Si surface and Si surface with adsorbate. Study of their properties by the methods of surface physics reveal numerous interesting phenomena including various phase transitions accompanied by changes of Fermi-surface topology, development of the charge-density wave, etc . ... The charge-density wave (CDW) develops in materials with a chain-like crystal structure at temperatures below the Peierls transition temperature. ...
