“Teaching To the Test” Family of Fallacies

Revista Iberoamericana de Evaluación Educativa, 2017
This article explains the various meanings and ambiguities of the phrase “teaching to the test” (TttT), describes its history and use as a pejorative, and outlines the policy implications of the popular, but fallacious, belief that “high stakes” testing ...

Analysis and modelling for CRESST-II

, 2012
The dark matter search CRESST-II completed its most recent run, Run 32, in 2011. Compared to previous runs, the quantity of data taken in this run increased significantly. In this work, Oxrop, analysis software in use within the CRESST collaboration, is upgraded to analyse this new data.

Constraints on self-interaction cross-sections of dark matter in universal bound states from direct detection

European Physical Journal C: Particles and Fields
$$\varLambda $$ Λ -Cold Dark Matter ( $$\varLambda $$ Λ CDM) has been successful at explaining the large-scale structures in the universe but faces severe issues on smaller scales when compared to observations.

Light dark matter investigation with CRESST [PDF]

Proceedings of Neutrino Oscillation Workshop — PoS(NOW2018), 2019
Cryogenic detectors are excellent devices for rare event searches. Thanks to their low energy thresholds, these detectors are at the cutting edge for the investigations of light dark matter (DM). The CRESST (Cryogenic Rare Event Search with Superconducting Thermometers) experiment explores with high sensitivity the parameter space of low mass DM ...

Detection of Asymmetry in the Narrow Fe Kα Emission Line in MCG-5-23-16 with Chandra

The Astrophysical Journal
Iron K α (Fe K α ) emission is observed ubiquitously in active galactic nuclei (AGN), and it is a powerful probe of their circumnuclear environment. Examinations of the emission line play a pivotal role in understanding the disk geometry surrounding ...

Multichannel SQUID readout for CRESST II

Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research Section A: Accelerators, Spectrometers, Detectors and Associated Equipment, 2004
We have developed a 66-channel SQUID system to read out the detectors for the second phase of the CRESST dark matter search using SQUID sensors, electronics and cryocables supplied by different manufacturers. The system has been extensively tested at Oxford to characterise the sensitivity, bandwidth, slew rate, noise, thermal drift, and crosstalk.
