MRI Scanner leaves The University of Nottingham for CERN
One of the original MRI scanners, which was at the heart of pioneering research into neurosicence and physiology at The University of Nottingham, is heading for a new life at CERN.
Having been superseded by the super fast 7T MR scanner it is bound for a new life with physicists from York University who are working on a particle physics experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. The retired scanner will help them investigate the effects of magnetic fields on the radio-active decay of

Tisha Bender- Discussion-Based Online Teaching To Enhance Student Learning
Bender talks about the 2nd edition of her book, Discussion-Based Online Teaching To Enhance Student Learning: Theory, Practice, and Assessment. The new edition offers new insights and ideas derived from the author's teaching in the eight years since she wrote the first edition, as well as from extensive research in the latest literature.
2.1 Key themes and learning outcomes The key themes of Part A are: company; business; capital. After studying Part A, you should be able to: describe in general terms what a business is; demonstrate an appreciation of the concept of capital. Visit the College of Law website

3.3 Scattering from a finite square step
Scattering is fundamental to almost everything we know about the world, such as why the sky is blue. Tunnelling is entirely quantum-mechanical and gives rise to such phenomena as nuclear fusion in stars. Examples and applications of both these fascinating concepts are investigated in this unit.
3.2 Stationary states and scattering in one dimension
Scattering is fundamental to almost everything we know about the world, such as why the sky is blue. Tunnelling is entirely quantum-mechanical and gives rise to such phenomena as nuclear fusion in stars. Examples and applications of both these fascinating concepts are investigated in this unit.

Next Steps
This unit is intended to develop your understanding of Newtonian mechanics in relation to oscillating systems. In addition to a basic grounding in calculus, this unit assumes that you have some understanding of how to solve second-order linear constant-coefficient differential equations; how to take the dot product of two vectors; of solving statics problems; and of applying Newton's second law to mechanical problems.

Next Steps
This unit lays the foundation of the subject of mechanics. Mechanics is concerned with how and why objects stay put, and how and why they move. In particular, this unit - Modelling Static Problems - considers why objects stay put. And it assumes that you have a good working knowledge of vectors.

Next Steps
This unit shows how partial differential equations can be used to model phenomena such as waves and heat transfer. The prerequisite requirements to gain full advantage from this unit are an understanding of ordinary differential equations and basic familiarity with partial differential equations.
