Direct linkVannoni, Maurizio; Molesini, Giuseppe; Sordini, Andrea; Straulino, Samuele – Physics Teacher, 2011
The recent celebration of the discoveries made by Galileo four centuries ago has attracted new attention to the refracting telescope and to its use as an instrument for the observation of the night sky. This has offered the opportunity for addressing in the classroom the basic principles explaining the operation of the telescope. When doing so, a…

Mas, J.; Farre, A.; Cuadros, J.; Juvells, I.; Carnicer, A. – IEEE Transactions on Education, 2011
Optical trapping is an attractive and multidisciplinary topic that has become the center of attention to a large number of researchers. Moreover, it is a suitable subject for advanced students that requires a knowledge of a wide range of topics. As a result, it has been incorporated into some syllabuses of both undergraduate and graduate programs.…
