Physics in a Beautiful Context
Like many of the readers, my training during college and graduate school focused on experimental methods for studying cellular, molecular, and developmental systems. This training included little formal education in physics and mathematics beyond the minimal requirement, a single semester of calculus and one to two semesters of physics. If the reader is anything like me, we are now wishing that...
متن کاملBeautiful Physics at Cdf
B-physics with pp collisions at CDF is reviewed, including production cross sections, masses, and decay properties. with a focus on lifetime and mixing measurements. A two-component lifetime t of B 0 s ! ` + D ? s X results in the limit ? s =? s < 0:81 (95% C.L.), which is converted into an indirect upper bound on m s. From our ve B 0 d-B 0 d oscillation analyses, we highlight the use of \same ...
متن کاملSome Beautiful Equations of Mathematical Physics
The basic ideas and the important role of gauge principles in modern elementary particle physics are outlined. There are three theoretically consistent gauge principles in quantum field theory: the spin-1 gauge principle of electromagnetism and the standard model, the spin-2 gauge principle of general relativity, and the spin-3/2 gauge principle of supergravity. Dirac Lecture delivered at the I...
متن کاملContext in the Context of Physics and Learning
This paper re-centers the discussion of student learning to focus on context. A theoretically-grounded understanding of context and the relation of context to student learning are developed. This work argues for a contextual constructivist model of student learning, in order to support efforts in creating and analyzing environments that support student learning in physics. INTRODUCTION: To date...
متن کاملA beautiful mind.
John Forbes Nash, Jr. was a child prodigy. While other boys his age were playing childhood games in their hometown of Bluefield, West Virginia, John was reading E.T. Bell’s Men of Mathematics. Learning more at home than he did at school, the young lad (who was encouraged by his educated parents) was able to solve some of math’s most difficult problems. Accepting a full-ride fellowship to Prince...
