Electro-optical feedback can produce an in-loop photocurrent with arbitrarily low noise. This is not regarded as evidence of `real' squeezing because squeezed light cannot be extracted from the loop using a linear beam splitter. Here I show…
A precise understanding of LHC phenomenology requires the inclusion of one-loop corrections for multi-particle final states. In this talk we describe a semi-numerical method to compute one-loop amplitudes with many external particles and…
The looping pendulum is a simple physical system consisting of two masses connected by a string that passes over a rod. We derive equations of motion for the looping pendulum using Newtonian mechanics, and show that these equations can be…
The evaluation of loop amplitudes via differential equations and harmonic polylogarithms is discussed at an introductory level. The method is based on evolution equations in the masses or in the external kinematical invariants and on a…
Computer experiments refer to the study of real systems using complex simulation models. They have been widely used as alternatives to physical experiments. Design and analysis of computer experiments have attracted great attention in past…
This is a report of a course on modern physics designed and taught to undergraduate science and engineering students in the Spring of 2013. The course, meant for freshmen, attempts to integrate statistical mechanics into non-classical…
This paper describes a cost effective and safe device to perform realistic experiments about the physics of radioactivity in classrooms. It can be used to study both $\alpha-$ and $\beta-$radioactivity as well as $\gamma-$emitters and shows…
This work is in the field of video surveillance including motion detection. The video surveillance is one of essential techniques for automatic video analysis to extract crucial information or relevant scenes in video surveillance systems.…
Building on successful work on studying and transforming our senior-level Advanced Lab course, we have transformed our junior-level Electronics course to engage students in a variety of authentic scientific practices, including…
The Atwood Machine, a classic apparatus in physics education, has historically been pivotal in demonstrating Newtonian mechanics, specifically Newton's Second Law. This study introduces an innovative adaptation, the circular Atwood machine,…
Small vibrations observed in video can unveil information beyond what is visual, such as sound and material properties. It is possible to passively record these vibrations when they are visually perceptible, or actively amplify their visual…
A simple setup was assembled to study the motion of an object while it falls. The setup was used to determine the instantaneous velocity, terminal velocity and acceleration due to gravity. Also, since the whole project was done within $20…
We have created a simple, portable, low-cost setup allowing the students and teachers to experiment with and discuss electromagnetic induction in a safe way, using low currents. The simplicity and portability make these activities well…
Several Authors have demonstrated that substituting computer simulations for real experiments conducted in a lab may help to improve students' understanding of the material. In the present work we try to understand the reasons for this…
In this paper, we demonstrate a low-cost method to measure the speed of light. It uses instruments which are readily available in any undergraduate laboratory in a developing country and some components which are inexpensive. The method is…
Catching objects in-flight is an outstanding challenge in robotics. In this paper, we present a closed-loop control system fusing data from two sensor modalities: an RGB-D camera and a radar. To develop and test our method, we start with an…
Effectiveness of teaching digital signal processing can be enhanced by reducing lecture time devoted to theory, and increasing emphasis on applications, programming aspects, visualization and intuitive understanding. An integrated approach…
With new forthcoming intense neutrino beams, for the study of neutrino oscillations, it is possible to consider other physics experiments that can be done with these extreme neutrino fluxes available close to the source.
A proposal for an experiment to look at some possibly novel aspects of quantum interference is presented, along with some Engineering applications that might result.
A classic problem of the motion of a projectile thrown at an angle to the horizon is studied. Air resistance force is taken into account with the use of the quadratic resistance law. The projectile motion is described analytically with…
