Form flows function: Learner‐centered game Re‐design in a STEM classroom

open access: yesBritish Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Re‐designing games facilitates interest‐driven learning and immerses learners in systems thinking. However, there are limited studies exploring how the form and function of tabletop games influence learners' design decisions and learning experiences. To address this gap, we conducted a mixed‐methods study in a STEM classroom in western Canada.

Action-angle Variables for Axisymmetric Potentials via Birkhoff Normalization

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We describe a method for calculating action-angle (AA) variables in axisymmetric galactic potentials using Birkhoff normalization, a technique from Hamiltonian perturbation theory.

Dynamics of the radio galaxy 3C 449 [PDF]

open access: yesMonthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society, 1998
We present ROSAT PSPC observations of the twin-jet radio galaxy 3C449. The soft X-ray emission from this object is dominated by an extended halo with a scale comparable to that of the radio source. The asymmetry of the X-ray emission is reflected in that of the radio lobes, providing evidence that the behaviour of the jets is strongly influenced by the

Rethinking Climate Change on the Role of Human Power Generation, Alternative Perspectives, Potential Solutions, and a Plea for Action

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
All energy matters Let us broaden the discussion on solutions to climate change. Greenhouse gases have upset the delicate equilibrium of the Earth's energy balance. Consequently, all sources of heat affect the temperature of the Earth. Although the amount of additional heat generated by humans is a fraction of that produced by the sun, it is generated ...

Can Dwarf Spheroidal Galaxies Host a Central Black Hole?

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We construct mass models of Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies to place constraints on the central black hole masses they can host. We model the galaxies as a three-component system consisting of the stars, dark matter halo, and a central black hole ...

Dynamics of the disks of nearby galaxies [PDF]

open access: yesAstronomische Nachrichten, 2008
AbstractI describe how the dynamics of galactic disks can be inferred by imaging and spectroscopy. Next I demonstrate that the decomposition of the rotation curves of spiral galaxies into the contributions by the various components of the galaxies is highly degenerate.

Investigation on tunnel stability considering pipe‐roof support with transparent soil technology

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study integrates transparent soil technology, 3D reconstruction and numerical simulation to captures the full‐field deformation of shield tunnel instability. Results demonstrate that pipe‐roof support enhances stability via the “soil‐arching barrier effect,” effectively restraining failure wedge development by extending stress transfer paths ...

MHD numerical simulations in a cosmological context [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Magnetic fields in the Universe are found in almost all studied environments. In particular, their presence in the inter-galactic medium and in the intra-cluster medium is confirmed by diffuse radio emission as well as by observations of Faraday ...
