⿊洞 引⼒波
•In recent years, astronomy has become more and more advanced. For example, we first detected a
gravitational wave (引⼒波) in 2016 and first observed blackhole (⿊洞) in 2019
•Many Nobel prize has been awarded for astronomy
•However, there are still many mysteries in the universe. (e.g. Is there another intelligent
life in the universe? What is the “dark side” of the universe?)
•In my lecture, I would like to tell students how the universe is
wonderful and mysterious.

Difficult point of my lecture
3. 拟采⽤的主要教学⽅法
•Since my lecture is conducted in English, it may be difficult
for non-science major students (e.g. technical terms).
Solution
•I share my presentation slides in advance.
•I use English and Chinese for technical terms.
•Graduate students（助教） in our institute help students understand my lecture.
•I use presentation slide in my lecture and use English.
•My lecture is based on the textbook “今⽇天⽂”, which is
translated of “Astronomy today”.
•I use many photos and pictures

4.课程的考查，考核⽅式
•成绩评定：平时成绩（20%, 报告⼯作），期中考试（25%），期末成绩（55%）
例如1:讨论我们银河系中智能⽣命存在的可能性。
例如2
rg =
2GM
c2
Mearth = 6 × 1024
kg
•In my course, I evaluate students by the daily report, mid-term exam, and final exam.
•In the homework, students choose one of the astronomical topics and discuss it.
•In the mid-term exam, students can bring anything for the exam and discuss some topics.
•In the final exam, students cannot bring anything for the exam. They should try the exam with their own brain.
如果地球变成⼀个⿊洞，它将有多⼤？
Students are encouraged to write reports and
exams in English. But, Chinese is acceptable.
