Across
  1. 2. a pair of equal and oppositely charged or magnetized poles separated by a distance.
  2. 6. the effect whereby the position or direction of an object appears to differ when viewed from different positions, e.g. through the viewfinder and the lens of a camera.
  3. 7. the interaction of electric currents or fields and magnetic fields.
  4. 8. the displacement of spectral lines toward longer wavelengths (the red end of the spectrum) in radiation from distant galaxies and celestial objects.
  5. 10. the science of the origin and development of the universe. Modern astronomy is dominated by the Big Bang theory, which brings together observational astronomy and particle physics.
  6. 11. a variable star having a regular cycle of brightness with a frequency related to its luminosity, so allowing estimation of its distance from the earth.
  7. 13. a nuclear reaction in which atomic nuclei of low atomic number fuse to form a heavier nucleus with the release of energy.
  8. 14. opening gap
  9. 15. the indefinite continued progress of existence and events in the past, present, and future regarded as a whole.
  10. 16. the SI base unit of thermodynamic temperature (equivalent in size to the degree Celsius), first introduced as the unit used in the Kelvin scale.
Down
  1. 1. the state, fact, quality, or condition of being singular.
  2. 3. a variable star having a regular cycle of brightness with a frequency related to its luminosity, so allowing estimation of its distance from the earth.
  3. 4. the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.
  4. 5. an instrument for measuring the intensity of light.
  5. 9. the action of inflating something or the condition of being inflated.
  6. 12. molecules formed by atoms consisting of antiprotons, antineutrons, and positrons. Stable antimatter does not appear to exist in our universe.
