  • Supporting Learning and Thinking with Multiple Representations in Upper Division Physics Courses

    Creator:
    Alfson, Jonathan W.
    Abstract:
    Physicists solve problems and communicate their work using many external representations, such as equations, words, diagrams, graphs, sketches, pictures, and more. To learn physics, then, students must learn to use external representations. In this dissertation, I present three manuscripts. Each manuscript discusses how upper-division Paradigms in Physics students use multiple...

  • An extension of the quantum theory of scattering to the non-asymptotic regime using Bohmian trajectories

    Creator:
    Stenson, Jared R.
    Abstract:
    Quantum mechanics provides a conventional theory of scattering that is limited in at least two ways: it focuses exclusively on the asymptotic regime and, in a more general sense characteristic of all quantum descriptions, provides no concrete account of individual particle evolution in spacetime. This is particularly true during the...

  • Multicellular monolayer’s self-organization under external stimuli

    Creator:
    Li, Guanyu
    Abstract:
    Cell signaling under external stimulation is a critical mechanism that governs many biological processes such as cell proliferation, cell migration, and cell apoptosis, etc. For multicellular organisms, the ability to synchronize heterogeneous individual cellular responses through intercellular communication is crucial to maintain normal functionality. However, even though the biological pathways...
