Kristina Callaghan, Tim Milbourne, Anna Klales +4
Two-stage exams, which pair a traditional individual exam with a subsequent collaborative, group exam, have been shown to enhance learning, retention, and student attitudes in midt…
The asymmetric rotating saddle potential as a mechanical analog to the RF Paul trap
Aidan Carey, Laurel Barnett, Robert Hart +3
Under specific conditions, a rotating saddle potential can confine the motion of a particle on its surface. This time-varying hyperbolic potential shares key characteristics with t…
Non-orbital particle trapping in binary black holes through dynamic stability
Ali Kurmus, Michal Zajacek, Greg Kestin +1
We present an interdisciplinary comparison between binary black hole systems and Radio Frequency (RF) Paul Traps, modeling the gravitational binary system as a rotating saddle near…
Active Learning Through Flexible Collaborative Exams: Improving STEM Assessments
Kristina Callaghan, Greg Kestin, Anna Klales +2
Two-stage exams, which pair a traditional individual exam with a subsequent collaborative exam, are widely popular with both students and faculty for fostering deep engagement, col…
Use of research-based instructional strategies: how to avoid faculty quitting
