变星研究与教育接轨四十年

Forty Years of Linking Variable Star Research with Education

John R. Percy

摘要:

在这篇评论中,我反映了四十年来我的经验,在连接天文学研究和教育,由本科生监督变星研究项目,并由优秀的高中生。我描述了我的经历的演变、我所指导的学生、他们的项目的性质、项目的教育背景、对“最佳实践”的需求、我们出版的期刊以及美国协会的特殊作用。变星观测者(AAVSO)。然后,我描述了我们最近对脉动红巨星和相关物体的研究,包括我们发现的三个天体物理学之谜。最后,我建议我的项目如何被其他监督学生研究的人扩大或扩展。

英文摘要:

In this review, I reflect on four decades of my experience in linking astronomy research and education by supervising variable-star research projects by undergraduates, and by outstanding senior high school students. I describe the evolution of my experience, the students I have supervised, the nature of their projects, the educational contexts of the projects, the need for "best practices", the journals in which we publish, and the special role of the American Association of Variable Star Observers (AAVSO). I then describe our recent research on pulsating red giants and related objects, including three astrophysical mysteries that we have uncovered. Finally, I suggest how my projects might be scaled up or extended by others who supervise student research.
