Abstract:
Current research on cognitive learning is applied to the designing of several experiments for use in high school physical science and physics classes. The goal of the project was to use simple inexpensive materials to construct experiments and demonstrations that illustrate physics concepts and can easily be modeled using simple mathematics.Saline solutions are used to show simple examples of refraction and effects of a solution of varying density. The refractive index of two liquids is measured. The continuous refraction of a stratified fluid is demonstrated. Fluid flow is investigated. This

In this study, a Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) optical sensor, based on Kretschmann configuration, was designed and constructed. SPR is a useful tool for obtaining quantitative kinetic and affinity information on biomolecular interactions. The resolution and the sensitivity of our homemade SPR system was determined and optimized by using thiols and sucrose solutions. The data were normalized and processed to increase the resolution of the system. The sensograms were obtained and the kinetic constants were analyzed.

In this thesis we consider a number of past, present, and future neutrino experiments designed to test physics beyond the Standard Model. First, we analyze potential new physics explanations of the NuTeV anomaly and check their compatibility with the most recent experimental data. The models we consider are: gauged Lmu-Ltau, gauged B-3Lmu, and S1, S3, V1, V3 leptoquarks. We find that only the triplet leptoquark models can explain NuTeV and be compatible with the data from other experiments at the same time, and only if the components of the triplet have different masses.

In classical mechanics, one of the advanced topics is the study of action and angle variables. These variables are quite abstract, but very powerful tools for describing classical motion. If a system has a full set of conservation laws, and if the motion of the system is bounded, then the motion can be described as flow on a torus. Action variables are functions of the conservation laws that identify the torus on which the motion lies, while angle variables tell the location of the system on that torus. In certain cases, the functional relationship between the conservation laws and the action

However, due to Brownian motion, a trapped particle is constantly moving and never at rest. In this case, one must track a bead over a set time, so as to gain an average displacement.

Abstract:
Plasticity experiments have been conducted with single dislocation resolution in both indentation and wear studies using atomic force microscopy (AFM). The high force sensitivity and the small tip radii in AFM permit the measurement of the nucleation of single dislocations in plastically deformed nanoscale volumes. Nanoscale mechanical testing in an ultra-high vacuum (UHV) environment allows for the preparation of oxide-free surfaces, required for direct comparison between atomistic simulation and experiment. Moreover, nanoscale mechanical testing often shows increased strength compared to wha
