Des pouvoirs de résolution encore plus élevés peuvent être atteints en espaçant les antennes sur des milliers de kilomètres. Mais il devient alors plus difficile de transmettredirectement les signaux de chaque antenne en un lieu de traitement commun : les signaux captés par chaque antenne sont donc enregistrés, puis expédiés vers un centrede traitement informatique. Cette technique d'interférométrie à très large base (VLBI, pour Very Long Baseline Interferometry) requiert l'utilisation d'horloge...

Les plaines, qui sont presque toujours périphériques et souvent recouvertes de limons d'origine volcanique, sont rares (moins d'un cinquième de la superficie totale), à l'exception de celles du Kantō (dans laquelle se trouve T ōky ō), de Niigata (sur la mer du Japon), de N ōbi (où se situe Nagoya) ou de Ishikari (plaine de Sapporo). Ces zones basses se raccordent aux hauteurs par des cônes d'alluvion qui constituent des reliefs de collines ou de terrasses. Compl...

Dans toutes les sociétés, les titulaires du pouvoir ont possédé la maîtrise du...

Confuciusquoted them in his works. Because he described them as “without depraved thoughts,” all the verses in the Shi jing have been treated as moral allegories.

two electrically charged plates (positively charged top plate and negatively charged bottom plate). By measuring the difference in how fast these electron-laden oildrops fell when the metal plates were charged and uncharged, Millikan was able to calculate the total charge on each oil drop. Because each measurement was a wholenumber multiple of -1.60 × 10 -19 coulombs, Millikan concluded this was the charge carried by a single electron. Using Thomson’s electron charge-to-mass ratio, Millikan then...

terminology. Today the geologic time scale is generally agreed upon and used by scientists around the world, dividing time into eons, eras, periods, and epochs. Everyfew years, the numerical time scale is refined based on new evidence, and geologists publish an update. Geologists use several methods to determine geologic time.

For example, the set of dark lines made by hydrogen includes a dark red line, the set of dark lines made by sodium includes a pairof dark yellow lines, and the set of dark lines made by iron includes lines of nearly every color. Each element in the gaseous outer layer of a star produces its ownparticular pattern of dark spectrum lines, depending on the temperature and pressure of the gas. Astronomers have observed spectrum lines, or spectra, for hundredsof...
