lunar crater data latitude 34.1 N or S S longitude 20.1 E or W E diameter 36 km depth 1.5 km colong 341 eponym Anders Celsius Celsius is a small Moon lunar Impact crater crater that is located in the rugged terrain in the southern sphere hemisphere on the Moon s near side. It lies less than one crater diameter to the south southwest of the crater Zagut crater Zagut , and due north of B sching crater B sching . This is a heavily worn crater with a southwest rim that has been damaged by multiple small crater impacts. There is a valley like gap in the northern rim that joins Celsius with Celsius A. The interior floor of Celsius is almost featureless, except for a small craterlet in the northern half. Satellite craters By convention these features are identified on lunar maps by placing the letter on the side of the crater mid point that is closest to Celsius. class wikitable width 25 style background eeeeee Celsius width 25 style background eeeeee Latitude width 25 style background eeeeee Longitude width 25 style background eeeeee Diameter align center A align center 33.0 S align center 20.5 E align center 14 km align center B align center 34.6 S align center 19.7 E align center 6 km align center D align center 34.7 S align center 19.1 E align center 19 km align center E align center 32.9 S align center 20.1 E align center 11 km align center H align center 33.8 S align center 20.1 E align center 6 km References Lunar crater references Moon crater stub Category Impact craters on the Moon da Celsius m nekrater de Celsius Mondkrater fa it Celsius cratere ja sv Celsius m nkrater ... more details

In recursion theory , a mathematical discipline, a PA degree is a Turing degree that computes a complete extension of Peano arithmetic Jockusch 1987 . These degrees are closely related to fixed point free DNR functions, and have been thoroughly investigated in recursion theory. Background In recursion ... are Turing degree Turing equivalent if each is Turing reducible to the other. The notation A &equiv ... relation known as Turing equivalence. A Turing degree is a collection of sets of natural numbers, such that any two sets in the collection are Turing equivalent. Equivalently, a Turing degree is an equivalence ... ordered by Turing reducibility. The notation a &le sub T sub b indicates there is a set in degree b that computes a set in degree a . Equivalently, a &le sub T sub b holds if and only if every set in b ... of natural numbers, and thus to speak about the computability of these completions. A Turing degree is defined to be a PA degree if there is a set in the degree that computes a completion of PA. This is equivalent to the proposition that every set in the degree computes a completion of PA. Because there are no computable completions of PA, the degree 0 consisting of the computable sets of natural numbers is not a PA degree. Because PA is an effective first order theory, the completions of PA ... The PA degrees are upward closed in the Turing degrees if a is a PA degree and a &le sub T sub b then b is a PA degree. The Turing degree 0 , which is the degree of the halting problem , is a PA degree. There are also PA degrees that are not above 0 . For example, the low basis theorem implies that there is a low PA degree. On the other hand, Anton n Ku era has proved that there is a degree less than 0 that computes a DNR function but is not a PA degree Jockusch 1989 197 . Carl Jockusch .... By definition, a degree is PA if and only if it computes a path through the tree of completions of Peano arithmetic. A stronger property holds a degree a is a PA degree if and only if a computes a path ... more details
