In addition, she is working on the development of
new observational techniques for the detection and characterization of the atmospheres of Earth - like planets to be discovered by the upcoming NASA TESS mission.
Recent advances
in observational technique allow the detection of the extremely faint structure around galaxies, such as loops or debris that are likely made by dynamical interactions with satellite galaxies..
About 3,000 DHS officers already roam the nation's airports scanning for suspicious behavior and facial expressions in a program called Screening of Passengers
by Observational Techniques, or SPOT.
Now, thanks to a combination of new instruments and
refined observational techniques, the missing reel of the universe's story is about to be slotted in — presented in the crackle and hiss of giant radio waves.
Traditional observational techniques require using microscopes to view ultra-thin slices of tissue — messy business when trying to reconstruct three - dimensional structures in something as thick as a human brain.
«About four percent of solar - type stars are in quadruple systems, which is up from previous estimates
because observational techniques are steadily improving,» said co-author Andrei Tokovinin of the Cerro Tololo Inter-American Observatory in Chile.
Researchers have, to an extent, been able to work around this impediment using a variety of
differing observational techniques paired with insight gained from studies of distant spiral galaxies, in order to develop a basic model of our galaxy.
One - to - one parent - training is effective in improving the care - giving of parents with a learning disability, and should involve specific skill assessment and training, using
direct observational techniques and modelling in the home or home - like settings (Feldman, 1994).
The presenter, Gary Sigrist, is a certified Department of Homeland Security trainer for both the Law Enforcement Active Shooter Emergency Response (LASER) and Screening of Persons
through Observational Techniques (SPOT) organizations.
Moreover, he deals with the public world as his object of investigation, and
observational techniques are objectively standardized.
«William Borucki, of the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California,» won the astronomy prize for «conceiving
the observational technique of transit photometry that raised the tantalizing prospect of sighting Earth - like planets orbiting other stars, and [for] leading the 25 - year - long development of the Kepler mission.»
«It is still too early to say if this is due to our new
observational technique or if there is something peculiar about the quasars in our sample.
For the past 4 years, an international team has been carefully tracking the signals of one of the pulsars and monitoring the signals» direction during eclipses —
a observational technique «that has never been employed before,» says astrophysicist and co-author Rene Breton of McGill University in Montreal, Canada.
William Borucki, of the NASA Ames Research Center in Mountain View, California, has captured the astronomy prize for two achievements: conceiving
the observational technique of transit photometry that raised the tantalizing prospect of sighting Earth - like planets orbiting other stars, and leading the 25 - year - long development of the Kepler mission, which in 2009 placed a telescope in space to make those observations.
Given that transit timing is an unproved method for discovering exoplanets, Agol would like to see a signal - to - noise ratio much higher than that found by the European group as well as confirmation by
another observational technique.
It is a story that Kaler relates in seven chapters, covering early history, instruments,
observational techniques, how stars work (especially the Sun), how they develop, how they grow old and die, and finally how they are born.
Different telescopes and
observational techniques are great for answering different questions: no telescope can do it all.
Over 150 UK scientists are actively investigating the dynamic evolution of our closest star using numerical, computational and
observational techniques.
It wasn't until the 20th century that astronomers had
observational techniques improved enough to disprove the canal theory.
«
Observational techniques are now becoming accurate enough to either detect the strings, or to place stringent constraints on particle theories that predict them,» he says.

Tap into a range of
observational techniques to extend and enhance your experience with these dynamic paintings.
The skeptics tend to pick out one aspect where there is perhaps not full agreement and fail to recognize that observations as well as models have shortcomings (witness the recent MSU [Microwave Sounding Unit] report's findings of shortcomings in
the observational techniques, etc.)-- and that our best understanding must be based on a coherent integration of the many, many studies into a comprehensive synthesis — and this is what the IPCC assessments (and others) do.
Assessment Methods in couple therapy are varied, and range from self - report questionnaires,
observational techniques, physiological readings... to therapist rating scales.
Beginning with an overview that addresses multicultural concerns, a description of play instruments, and
observational techniques, this practice - oriented book explains how to implement play therapy in schools, with solid advice on gaining acceptance from other staff members and administration.
