Experiments for Physics Education at Basic School
One of the ways of promoting students’ interest in physics is the performance of experiments. This paper is concerned to experiments which could be used in physics classes taught at basic education. A questionnaire was created to determine to what extent basic school physics teachers are willing to incorporate experiments into their teaching method repertoire. The questionnaire underwent a pilo...
متن کاملContrast Improvement of Ion Bunches for Plasma Physics Experiments
Most plasma physics experiments that use ion beam heating need short bunches. To accommodate this requirement the RF system in the SIS is used to produce a single compressed ion bunch. Typical examples of such bunches were recorded in two beamtimes at the HHT experimental area in 2009 and are shown in Fig. 1. The bunch form is measured by a fast current transformer in the beamline. The bunch ha...
متن کاملDivertor Plasma Physics Experiments on the Diii–d Tokamak
DIVERTOR PLASMA PHYSICS EXPERIMENTS ON THE DIII–D TOKAMAK. In this paper we present an overview of the results and conclusions of our most recent divertor physics and development work. Using an array of new divertor diagnostics we have measured the plasma parameters over the entire divertor volume and gained new insights into several divertor physics issues. We present direct experimental evide...
متن کاملWoody Hastings: 65 years of fun.
John Woodland (Woody) Hastings, Paul C. Mangelsdorf Professor of Natural Sciences and Professor Emeritus, Harvard University, died at home on August 6, 2014 after a long battle with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. He was 87. To those who worked with Woody, he was a personality larger than life. Woody infected those around him with his love of science, his curiosity, and his view that although wh...
متن کاملThe upgraded Large Plasma Device, a machine for studying frontier basic plasma physics.
In 1991 a manuscript describing an instrument for studying magnetized plasmas was published in this journal. The Large Plasma Device (LAPD) was upgraded in 2001 and has become a national user facility for the study of basic plasma physics. The upgrade as well as diagnostics introduced since then has significantly changed the capabilities of the device. All references to the machine still quote ...
