Liu Caipin

Liu Caipin is a astronomy topic covered in the lgStudy science library. This page brings together a partial reference excerpt, illustrations, worked examples, real-world applications and a short study plan, so you can understand Liu Caipin rather than just read about it. In short: Liu Caipin (Chinese: 刘彩品) is a former Chinese politician, born in 1936 in China. She was a member of the National People's Congress.

Key takeaways

Liu Caipin belongs to astronomy; place it in that map before memorising details.
Learn the definition first, then one example that makes the definition concrete.
Connect Liu Caipin to a quantity you can measure, compute or draw — that is where exam questions come from.
Reproduce the core statement of Liu Caipin from memory before moving on to harder problems.

Reference excerpt

Liu Caipin (Chinese: 刘彩品) is a former Chinese politician, born in 1936 in China. She was a member of the National People's Congress.

Academic life Liu Caipin was a Chinese astronomer and politician. She was born in 1936 in China and studied astronomy at the University of Tokyo in 1955. After graduating, she married Kimura Hiroshi, also an astronomer, and they had two children. In 1971, the couple returned to China and worked at the Purple Mountain Observatory in Nanjing. Caipin published many articles in the field of astronomy, most of which were written in collaboration with her husband. Her most cited article, "Detection of infall motion from the circumstellar disk associated with the exciting source of HH 111," was published in 1997 and has been cited 31 times.

Political life In 1981, Caipin began her political career when she was appointed as the first president of the council of the All-China Federation of Taiwan Compatriots. The aim of this role was to serve as a liaison between the Chinese mainland and Taiwan in order to improve relations. She also played a key role in the development and passing of the Civil Servant Law of the People's Republic of China. In 1990, Caipin was involved with a lawsuit against Japan for the war crimes committed by the Japanese military during World War II, such as the Rape of Nanking. Caipin currently lives Saitama, Japan.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Liu Caipin

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Liu Caipin claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In astronomy, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Liu Caipin before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Liu Caipin ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Liu Caipin

In research: Liu Caipin appears in astronomy research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Liu Caipin in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Liu Caipin is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 1937 births, Delegates to the National People's Congress from Taiwan, Living people, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Liu Caipin outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
