Importance of math prerequisites for performance in introductory physics

Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2021
Previous work has looked at the relationship between high school preparation and student performance in calculus-based introductory mechanics (physics 1) courses. Here, we extend that work to look at performance in introductory calculus-based electricity

Undergraduate students’ expectations of practical work in university physics

Högre Utbildning
Instructors’ assumptions about students’ expectations can affect the opportunities and support they provide. A survey of students starting undergraduate degrees in physics in the UK and Sweden found that they expect that their laboratory work will ...

Other spaces for young women’s identity work in physics: Resources accessed through university-adjacent informal physics learning contexts in Sweden

Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2022
For young women, inbound identity trajectories into physics are generally regarded as exceptional. In this study, we investigated the experiences that young women have which may support their sustained interest and achievement in physics, and their ...

Fundamental physics with the Square Kilometre Array [PDF]

Publications Astronomical Society of Australia, 2018
The Square Kilometre Array (SKA) is a planned large radio interferometer designed to operate over a wide range of frequencies, and with an order of magnitude greater sensitivity and survey speed than any current radio telescope. The SKA will address many

A Survey of Physics-Based Attack Detection in Cyber-Physical Systems

ACM Computing Surveys, 2018
Monitoring the “physics” of cyber-physical systems to detect attacks is a growing area of research. In its basic form, a security monitor creates time-series models of sensor readings for an industrial control system and identifies anomalies in these ...

Student evaluations of physics teachers: On the stability and persistence of gender bias

Physical Review Physics Education Research, 2016
[This paper is part of the Focused Collection on Gender in Physics.] There is a long history of research which confounds the simple interpretation that evaluations in an educational context are purely measures of competency.
