An Approach to Quantum Physics Teaching through Analog Experiments
ErscheinungsjahrErschienen in:PhysicsS. Aehle, P. Scheiger, H. Cartarius
With quantum physics being a particularly difficult subject to teach because of its contextual distance from everyday life, the need for multiperspective teaching material arises. Quantum physics education aims at exploring these methods but often lacks physical models and haptic components. In this paper, we provide two analog models and corresponding teaching concepts that present analogies to quantum phenomena for implementation in secondary school and university classrooms: While the first model focuses on the polarization of single photons and the deduction of reasoning tools for elementary comprehension of quantum theory, the second model investigates analog Hardy experiments as an alternative to Bell’s theorem. We show how working with physical models to compare classical and quantum perspectives has proven helpful for novice learners to grasp the abstract nature of quantum experiments and discuss our findings as an addition to existing quantum physics teaching concepts.
Henry Cavendish on Gravitational Deflection of Light
ErscheinungsjahrErschienen in:Annalen der PhysikK. Lotze, S. Simionato
A recent analysis of two handwritten sheets of paper by Henry Cavendish (1731–1810) reveals the details of his calculation of the deflection of light induced by the gravitational field of isolated celestial bodies. Except for a few lines from one of these pages, where Cavendish communicated the result, the two documents have never been published. This gave rise to speculations about how, if at all, Cavendish derived his formula for the deflection angle by his own calculations. Such doubts are dispelled and it is demonstrated how Cavendish, in these documents, applied Newtonian mechanics to the corpuscles of light.
