Data from mocks and QLA will be used to identify areas of underperformance and targeted revision.
Big Bang theory
the theory that the universe was created in a massive explosion (the Big Bang), and that the universe has been expanding ever since
black dwarf
a star that has faded out and gone cold
black hole
an object in space that has so much mass that nothing, not even light, can escape from its gravitational field
centripetal force
the resultant force towards the centre of a circle acting on an object moving in a circular path
dark matter
matter in a galaxy that cannot be seen. Its presence is deduced because galaxies would spin much faster if their stars were their only matter
neutron star
the highly compressed core of a massive star that remains after a supernova explosion
protostar
the concentration of dust clouds and gas in space that forms a star
red giant
a star that has expanded and cooled, resulting in it becoming red and much larger and cooler than it was before it expanded
red-shift
increase in the wavelength of electromagnetic waves emitted by a star or galaxy due to its motion away from us.
The faster the speed of the star or galaxy, the greater the red-shift is
supernova
the explosion of a massive star after fusion in its core ceases and the matter surrounding its core collapses on to the core and rebounds
