The Mach-Zehnder Interferometer: A smart remote experiment based on a software template

Denis Gillet, Christophe Salzmann, Wissam Halimi

Hands-on laboratory sessions are one of the pillars of science and engineering education. It is reputed that institu- tions find it difficult to provide enough laboratory setups that cover all taught scientific topics due to logistical and budgetary limita ...

Two lectures about representing scientific communities by data visualization

Dario Rodighiero

These lectures present a research that investigates the representation of communities, and the way to foster their understanding by different audiences. Communities are complex multidimensional entities intrinsically difficult to represent synthetically ...

Learning from the scientific legacies of W. Brutsaert and J.-Y. Parlange

David Andrew Barry

Though the essence of the scientific literature is to be a repository of unaffiliated truths, scientific advancement fundamentally stems from the insights and efforts of individuals. This dichotomy can hide exemplars for young scholars of how to contribute ...
