EXPERIMENTAL TECHNIQUES IN NUCLEAR AND PARTICLE PHYSICS

I have been teaching courses on experimental techniques in nuclear and particle physics to master students in physics and in engineering for many years. This book grew out of the lecture notes I made for these students. The physics and engineering students have rather different expectations of what such a course should be like. I hope that I have nevertheless managed to write a book that can sa…

LANDSCAPES OF INVESTIGATION CONTRIBUTIONS TO CRITICAL MATHEMATICS EDUCATION

Creating landscapes of investigation is a primary concern of critical mathematics education. It enables us to organise educational processes so that students and teachers are able to get involved in explorations guided by dialogical interactions. It attempts to address explicit or implicit forms of social injustice by means of mathematics, and also to promote a critical conception of mathematic…

SAFETY FOR PARTICLE ACCELERATORS
