With the help of augmented reality apps objects and text can be added virtually to the physical world (e.g. physical experiments) in real time. The augmented reality (AR) app ‘PUMA: Spannungslabor’ enhances simple electric circuits experiments for students with virtual representations based on the electron gas analogy including visualisations of in...

The current state of research on quantum and ballistic electron transport in semiconductor nanostructures with a two-dimensional electron gas separated from the substrate and nanoelectromechanical systems is reviewed. These nanostructures fabricated using the surface nanomachining technique have certain unexpected features in comparison to their no...

Quantum thermodynamics aims to build a theory of thermodynamics starting from the theory of quantum mechanics. The natural framework for this formulation of thermodynamics is the theory of open quantum systems. Open quantum system theory concerns the dynamics of a quantum system interacting with a quantum environment. Its techniques are suited to t...

Biological intelligence is remarkable in its ability to produce complex behavior in many diverse situations through data efficient, generalizable, and transferable skill acquisition. It is believed that learning “good” sensory representations is important for enabling this, however there is little agreement as to what a good representation should l...

For many system level questions jurisprudential data has grown to a size and scale that no longer lends itself to traditional analytic techniques driven by human examination and direct analysis. While there will always be vast numbers of specific questions well within the capabilities of humans, an understanding of the system as a whole is no longe...

Dual energy CT (DECT) refers to the acquisition of CT images at two energy spectra and can provide information about tissue composition beyond that obtainable by conventional CT. The attenuation of a photon beam varies depends on the atomic number and density of the attenuating material and the energy of the incoming photon beam. This differential ...

Les approches d’ensemble des Illuminations s’emploient à dégager ce que pense le poème en prose rimbaldien, en amont, il convient pourtant de se demander comment il pense. En effet, la pensée s’y déploie fréquemment sous les aspects d’une physique des idées, qui engage un ensemble de figurations matérielles de la pensée, de phénomènes d’objectivati...

Cobotic workstations in industrial plants involve a new kind of collaborative robots that can interact with operators. These cobots enable more flexibility and they can reduce the cycle time and the floor space of the workstation. However, cobots also introduce new safety concerns with regard to operators, and they may have an impact on the worksta...

Decades of initiatives have striven to fix the so-called “leaking pipeline” problem—persistent high attrition of women from the career/educational path toward STEM professorship. Though these initiatives call on academics to increase female retention along this path, it remains unknown whether academics actually prioritize this goal. To investigate...

The paper is situated within the theoretical and methodological framework of the the Joint Action Theory of Didactics (Sensevy, Le Sens du Savoir. Eléments pour une Théorie de l’Action Conjointe en Didactique, De Boeck, 2011; Santini et al., Science & Education 27:921–961, 2018) and within the practice turn line of research on epistemic practices i...
