HST and ground-based eclipse observations of V2051 Ophiuchi: Binary parameters
We report on high-speed eclipse photometry of the dwarf nova V2051 Oph while
it was in a low brightness state, at B ~ 16.2 mag. In comparison to the average
IUE spectra, the ultraviolet continuum and emission lines appear reduced by
factors of, respectively, ~4 and ~5. Flickering activity is mostly suppressed
and the lightcurve shows the eclipse of a compact white dwarf at disc centre
which contributes ~60 per cent of the total light at 3900--4300 A. We use
measurements of contact phases in the eclipse lightcurve to derive the binary
geometry and to estimate masses and relevant dimensions. We find a mass ratio
of q= 0.19+/-0.03 and an inclination of i= 83+/-2 degrees. The masses of the
component stars are M_1 = 0.78+/-0.06 M_dot and M_2 = 0.15+/-0.03 M_dot. Our
photometric model predicts K_1 = 83+/-12 km/s and K_2= 435+/-11 km/s. The
predicted value of K_1 is in accordance with the velocity amplitude obtained
from the emission lines after a correction for asymmetric line emission in the
disc is made (Watts et al. 1986). The secondary of V2051 Oph is significantly
more massive than the secondaries of the other ultra-short period dwarf novae.
V2051 Oph is probably a relatively young system, whose secondary star had not
enough time to evolve out of thermal equilibrium.Comment: 16 pages, 7 postscript figures, coded using MNRAS latex style. To

Portuguese primary and secondary education in times of COVID-19 pandemic: An exploratory study on teacher training and challenges
The discussion about the use of digital technologies in education is not new. However, the COVID-19 pandemic and the total closure of schools around the world, that forced millions of
students to attend their classes from home, has demonstrated the importance of this discussion. It has highlighted the need to revisit debates about the interactions between technology and education, and the added value of digital resources to enhance the educational process. This article, based on an exploratory analysis, aims to understand how the transition from face-to-face to digital was accomplished in Portuguese primary and secondary education, namely regarding teacher training and the difficulties experienced during the emergency remote education period. The data analysed in this article were collected through an online questionnaire, disseminated through online social networks, and answered by 136 Portuguese primary and secondary education teachers. The questions focused on this article were open-ended, and the information collected was analysed using content analysis methodology. The results show how teachers have been forced to modify their pedagogical work, the importance of training, and the inherent challenges and critical reflections associated with the process, as well as the opportunities presented in a post-pandemic educational reality.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
