Anno L - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2017 La crittografia quantistica come occasione per introdurre alcune proprietà fondamentali dei sistemi quantistici
The article describes a teaching proposal in which some fundamental properties of quantum systems are presented through the development of quantum cryptography protocols. The idea is the use of these properties as operational tools in a context that can stimulate students’ curiosity and interest. […]
Anno XXXVI - n.4 - ottobre/dicembre 2003 La cura delle metastasi epatiche diffuse mediante il metodo TAOrMINA
TAOrMINA (Advanced Treatment of Organs by Neutronic Irradiation and Autotransplantation) is a technique developed at the University of Pavia for treating diffuse cancer in explantable organs. Neutron capture is the most selective among the treatments based on irradiation. First the affected cells are enriched in 10B, […]
Anno LVI - n.2 - aprile/giugno 2023 La didattica satellitare: una risorsa per la formazione dei cittadini del futuro
The article describes an educational project that used Earth observation satellites to engage students in a hands-on learning experience. The project was carried out in the third classes of the scientific track; the students were divided into groups and tasked with researching an Earth observation satellite and presenting their findings in a video. […]
Anno XLVI - n.1 - gennaio/marzo 2013 La diffusione dell’ora esatta nell’era della televisione digitale
The reasons why in our days it is impossible to regulate our watches with precision through radio or TV signals are described and discussed. The International Atomic Time, the leap second concept, the modern techniques used to obtain a correct speaking clock and the reasons that corrupt the delivery of the time check via digital broadcasts are briefly described, […]
Anno XXVI - n.2 - aprile/giugno 1993 La Dinamica Molecolare e l’Insegnamento della Fisica della Materia Condensata nelle Scuole Superiori
In this paper we discuss molecular dynamics, a numerical technique successfully employed since thirty years in research to solve the equations of motion in many body systems. We propose using molecular dynamics as a tool in high school teaching of condensed Matter Physics. […]
