Shaping and steering of light beams is essential in many modern applications, ranging from optical tweezers, camera lenses, vision correction to 3D displays. However, current realisations require increasingly greater tunability and aim for lesser specificity for use in diverse applications. Here, we demonstrate tunable light beam control based on m...

Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is a promising optical modality that is already being used in numerous applications. Further expansion of the capabilities of HSI depends on the modularity and versatility of the systems, which would, inter alia, incorporate profilometry, fluorescence imaging, and Raman spectroscopy while following a rigorous calibration...

The ATLAS experiment is currently upgrading the first muon station in the high-rapidity region with the New Small Wheels (NSW), based on large-size resistive Micromegas (MM) technology and small-strip Thin Gap Chambers (sTGC). The NSW system is going to be installed in the ATLAS underground cavern during the LHC long shutdown 2 (2021) to enter in o...

Complex interactions between the physical environment and phenotype of a tumour, and genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics and epigenomics, are increasingly known to have a significant influence on cancer development, progression and evolution. For example, mechanical stress can alter both genome maintenance and histone modifications, which consequ...

Physics teachers’ definitions of equity inform how they identify inequity and take action to transform it. In this paper, we adapted Gutiérrez’s equity framework from mathematics education research to physics education research. The framework defines equity in terms of four dimensions: access, achievement, identity, and power. We used this equity f...

In this lab activity, carbon copy paper is used to record the horizontal distance a marble flies off a table after rolling down an incline. The minimal scatter of the dots visually shows the high precision—i.e. the small uncertainty—of the measurements to students. The theoretical prediction of this distance will be too big if students forget to in...

Machine Learning: Science and Technology
The cross section is one of the most important physical quantities in high-energy physics and the most time consuming to compute. While machine learning has proven to be highly successful in numerical calculations in high-energy physics, analytical calculations using machine learning are still in their infancy. In this work, we use a sequence-to-se...

Multiple external representations (e.g., diagrams, equations) and their interpretations play a central role in science and science learning as research has shown that they can substantially facilitate the learning and understanding of science concepts. Therefore, multiple and particularly visual representations are a core element of university phys...

In this paper, we review scientific opportunities and challenges related to detection and reconstruction of low-energy (less than 100 MeV) signatures in liquid argon time-projection chamber (LArTPC) neutrino detectors. LArTPC neutrino detectors designed for performing precise long-baseline oscillation measurements with GeV-scale accelerator neutrin...
