Most people probably don’t give it a lot of thought, but physics plays a major role in their everyday lives, according to graduate student Theresa Spanjers. However, teaching its more daunting modern concepts at the high school level can be a challenging task, even for some of the best educators.
It’s a simple experiment used to demonstrate some basic laws of physics, but the “fire tornado” was just cool enough to catch the attention of producers at the Discovery Channel planning to air a segment about a nationwide celebration of science.
Physics professor Chitra Rangan began a five-year term heading up the department effective May 1.
A member of the UWindsor faculty since 2004, Dr. Rangan holds the rank of associate professor. Her research interests include nanotechnology, quantum information and biomedical physics. Her current area of investigation is the interaction between light and matter at the nanoscale (atoms, molecules and nanostructures), the control of this interaction, and its applications to early cancer detection.
