    The globalization of processes poses the problem of the quality of training of health care professionals in the higher education institution. The teaching process at the higher school has the important social task of preparing specialists capable of carrying out quality professional work with the virtues built up, needed for the daily professional activity.The actuality of the research problem is determined by the need to improve the quality of health care education in the higher school. This requires an adequate assessment of the professional training of future medical specialists, in accordance with changing demographic processes, morbidity, chronic disease and human attitudes towards his or her own health as its highest value.The purpose of the scientific communication is to reveal and outline the need to improve the quality of health care education at the higher school.Tasks of the survey are: to examine the need to improve the quality of health care education in the higher education institution; to reveal the role of higher education; to investigate the effectiveness and relevance of health care education in the higher school; to determine the degree of satisfaction with their performance.The methods used in the research are questionnaire survey, programmed interview, purposefully included observation and pedagogical experiment. Subject of the survey is the necessity to improve the quality of healthcare education in the higher school with the students of the specialty "nurse" at the Medical University - Varna, Sliven Affiliate.Object of the survey is the process and conditions under which the need to improve the quality of healthcare education is being studied.   The analysis of the results has led to the conclusion that it is necessary to periodically increase the quality of healthcare education, in line with the growing needs of the population for proper and timely health care. This requires good organization and management of the learning process; provision of active and planned learning activity; acquiring of professional and moral knowledge, skills and competencies; formation of professionally significant personal qualities of the medical specialist

    Mass-Radius Relationships for Solid Exoplanets

    We use new interior models of cold planets to investigate the mass-radius relationships of solid exoplanets, considering planets made primarily of iron, silicates, water, and carbon compounds. We find that the mass-radius relationships for cold terrestrial-mass planets of all compositions we considered follow a generic functional form that is not a simple power law: log⁥10Rs=k1+1/3log⁥10(Ms)−k2Msk3\log_{10} R_s = k_1 + 1/3 \log_{10}(M_s) - k_2 M_s^{k_3} for up to Mp≈20M⊕M_p \approx 20 M_{\oplus}, where MsM_s and RsR_s are scaled mass and radius values. This functional form arises because the common building blocks of solid planets all have equations of state that are well approximated by a modified polytrope of the form ρ=ρ0+cPn\rho = \rho_0 + c P^n. We find that highly detailed planet interior models, including temperature structure and phase changes, are not necessary to derive solid exoplanet bulk composition from mass and radius measurements. For solid exoplanets with no substantial atmosphere we have also found that: with 5% fractional uncertainty in planet mass and radius it is possible to distinguish among planets composed predominantly of iron or silicates or water ice but not more detailed compositions; with ∌\sim~5% uncertainty water ice planets with ≳25\gtrsim 25% water by mass may be identified; the minimum plausible planet size for a given mass is that of a pure iron planet; and carbon planet mass-radius relationships overlap with those of silicate and water planets due to similar zero-pressure densities and equations of state. We propose a definition of "super Earths'' based on the clear distinction in radii between planets with significant gas envelopes and those without.Comment: ApJ, in press, 33 pages including 16 figure
