The readers will get interesting information about the life and practices of those who dedicated their whole life to the development of science, such as Ottoman mathematicians and astronomer Rumi Kadizade from Bursa, Ali Kushchu, Mirim Chalabi, Takiyuddin Bin Maruf-i, Gelenbevi Ismail Efendi, Hoca Ishak Efendi, and Huseyin Tevfik Pasha.展开更多

Well, it is believed that with our complex concept of tradition of thought within which we insert not only epistemological concepts but also philosophical principles, historical and social frameworks, in stasis or in strong movement, processed by us, it is possible better interpret that happy moment of scientific constructions of the third and second century BC, as a result of the valorization of the deep travail and serious battle that preceded it between the fourth and fifth century BC. It is investigated in particular in our paper the development of astronomical thought between the fifth and fourth centuries BC, in the ancient Greek thought, and at last a particular presumed criticism by Archimedes in his Sandreckoner to Aristarchus.展开更多

What is a scientific proof？. Philosophical investigations of proofs have the long history. Philosophy is exploring physics, mathematics, astronomy, biology, history, and so on. Science demands strict proofs. Science uses the specific methods as the optimum technologies for the achievement of the truth. Strictness of the proof depends on the aim algorithm： the distribution of the functions between parts of the proof. The beginning stage, the middle parts, and the ending stage are the unit of the proof. Philosophy can make the correct model of the scientific proof only! Science and its methodology develop and the growth of knowledge has not the finish. The rational ideals improve continually. Science is looking for the criterion of the demonstrative strictness. The adaptation algorithm of the scientific method is the best technology for the achievement of the truth.展开更多

We monitored the comet from September 30 to November 4, 2010 and investigated the variation of activities. The Afp parameter derived from our r broadband data varies from 46.0 to 126.0 cm and increases with time. The dust production rate in terms of Afp was measured and a tentative calculation of the dust （or gas） loss-rate of nucleus was executed under the assumption that the nucleus of comet 103P/l-lartley 2 is spherical. The r-band image and the surface brightness profile taken on September 30, 2010 was measured and the gradient of surface brightness profile of 103P/Hartley 2 showed m 〈 -1.5,展开更多
