This study explores the role of visual representations in students' problem solving and provides a foundation for investigating how students' use of visualization changes in the upper-division physics major. Three independent studies were conducted on similar samples of students. At the time of these...

There he undertook a major study of the radiation that the physicist Victor Hess had detected coming from outer space. Millikan proved that this radiation is indeed of extraterrestrial origin, and he named it "cosmic rays." As chairman of the Executive Council of Caltech (the school's ...
The major structural change during the junior year is that two separate traditional course sequences, running in parallel, have merged to form a single intensive sequence, to encourage mastery of the concepts as you go along. These "paradigm" courses, taken typically in the junior year, are ...

A major curriculum revision occurred in 1972, concurrent with the development of a 4-yr BS degree program in nuclear engineering technology (NET). The NET program was suspended about 1980, due to limited financial support and to a misunderstanding by industry of the difference between a BS-...
Without disclosing why, someone in the government of the state (“Land”) of Baden-Württemberg decided to modify the job offer to one that I could not accept (I would have understood reservations about my lack of management experience but it appears that not being German played a major ...
the neutrino from its decay is usually almost collinear with the visibleτ-decay products. The neutrino escapes detection and is reconstructed as part of the{E}_{\,\text{T}}^{\text{miss}\,}of the event. In a signal event, this is the only major source of{E}_{\text{T}}^{\text{...
Electroweak symmetry breaking explains the origin of the masses of elementary particles through their interactions with the Higgs field. Besides the measurements of the Higgs boson properties, the study of the scattering of massive vector bosons with spi
where a is the semimajor axis of the planet’s ellipse, T its period, e its eccentricity and c the speed of light. For Mercury, this comes to exactly 43 arcseconds per century, precisely the missing amount. While strictly speaking this was a postdiction, it was nonetheless impressive....
