Virtual and remote experiments for radiometric and photometric measurements
See the physics and educational background of our spectrometric remote lab in the European Journal of Physics. https://doi.org/10.1088/1361-6404/aa754f The analysis of spectra is fundamental to our modern understanding of wave optics and colour perception. Since spectrometers are expensive, and accurate calibration is necessary to achieve high quality spectra, we developed...
Phonocardiography with a smartphone
We just happily found out that our latest article in Physics Education - Phonocardiography with a Smartphone - has been chosen by the editors as IOPselect and is thus now freely available for download: https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1361-6552/aa51ec When a stethoscope is placed on the chest over the heart, sounds coming from the...
