Bringing Physics, Synchrotron Light and Probing Neutrons to the Public: A Collaborative Outreach
Micklavzina, Stanley; Almqvist, Monica; Sörensen, Stacey L.
Physics Education, v49 n2 p221-230 Mar 2014
Stanley Micklavzina, a US physics educator on sabbatical, teams up with a Swedish national research laboratory, a synchrotron radiation experimental group and a university science centre to develop and create educational and public outreach projects. Descriptions of the physics, science centre displays and public demonstrations covering the physics principles involved in using photons and neutrons to probe materials are given.
