2 Invited Talks Supernovae and Dark Energy (Vaden Miles Lecture) Dr. Peter E. Nugent, Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory Astronomers have begun to measure the fundamental parameters of cosmology through the observation of very distant Type Ia supernovae. Over the past decade more than 300 spectroscopically confirmed high-redshift supernovae have been discovered. These supernovae are used as standardized candles to measure the history of the expansion of the universe. Under the current standard model for cosmology these measurements indicate the presence of a heretofore-unknown dark energy causing a recent acceleration in the expansion of the universe. At this time supernova measurements of the cosmological parameters are no longer limited by statistical uncertainties, rather systematic uncertainties are the dominant source of error. These include the effects of evolution (further back in time do the supernovae behave the same way?), the effect of intergalactic dust on the brightness of the supernovae and the relationship between supernovae and their environments. Here I will review two recent supernova cosmology programs, the SuperNova Legacy Survey and the SuperNova Factory, which hope to address these remaining questions for Type Ia supernovae. I will also present exciting new developments in the field of cosmology using Type II-P supernovae as standardized candles and the prospect of using them to independently measure the cosmological parameters. How the Early Universe Informs the Formation and Long Term Evolution of Galaxies, Stars, and Planets Prof. Fred C. Adams, Physics Department, University of Michigan This talk describes how the physics of the early universe provides the initial conditions for the formation and subsequent evolution of galaxies, stars, and planets. Inflation allows the universe to have a long lifetime and provides density fluctuations that seed galaxy formation. Baryogenesis provides an asymmetry between matter and antimatter and thereby allows the raw material for cosmic structures to exist. Big bang nucleosynthesis sets the initial abundances for stellar evolution. This connection between the early universe continues into the far future. QGP: The Perfect Liquid and the Early Universe Dr. Paul Stankus, Oak Ridge National Laboratory The basic framework for describing the thermal history of the early Universe is reviewed. Special attention is paid to the era of the QCD hadron/quark-gluon transition, and its cosmological significance. Recent intriguing experimental results from high-energy nuclear collisions are highlighted, and their relevance to early Universe physics is discussed. 2
3 Workshops Hands on Experience with the PASCO CASTLE Kit Friday, March 1, 2006, Mc Grgeor Center, 9-12AM, 1-3PM, Room to be announced. Alan Gibson, C3P mentor and PTRA 1 Retired Teacher, Rochester Adams High School Keith Fortan PTRA 1 Teacher Traverse City Central High School CASTLE (Capacitor-Aided System for Teaching and Learning Electricity) is a middle and high school electricity curriculum that leads students from initial naive ideas to an increasingly expert understanding of electrical phenomena.. In this workshop, participants will use a representative sample of the self-guided experiments that help students confront their misconceptions, grasp the physics of current propulsion and build intuitive explanatory models. We also find it to be a good program to help teachers firm up their own understanding of concepts in electricity. The CASTLE approach originated in the research of Professor Melvin S. Steinberg of Smith College and was developed by a team of college and high school physics teachers under a National Science Foundation grant. Extensive testing has shown superior conceptual and confidence gains. The U.S. Department of Education s Program Effectiveness Panel certified CASTLE as a proven effective program in (1) Physics Teaching Resource Agents (PTRA) is a program of the American Association of Physics Beyond Declarative Knowledge in Science Are You Really Teaching if No One is Learning Saturday, April 1, 2006, 8:00-10:00 AM, Mc Grgeor Center, Room to be announced. Dr. Edward Prather, Department of Astronomy, University of Arizona, Researchers with the Conceptual Astronomy and Physics Education Research (CAPER) Team at the University of Arizona s Department of Astronomy are conducting fundamental research into students ideas over a range of science topics typically taught in non-science major introductory science courses. Research in this field repeatedly demonstrates that students enter the classroom with many inaccurate scientific ideas that are poised to interfere with instruction. Our research indicates that these student ideas are difficult to change through conventional lecture alone. Moreover, the depth of student understanding is often masked when they are able to correctly answer test questions that are based on declarative knowledge. To better promote student learning, the results from our investigations are being used to inform curriculum development and instructional practices that are aimed at creating a learner-centered environment in the large lecture classroom. Students working in this environment show substantial increases in their understanding over conventional lecture. 3
4 Registration and Banquet Information The registration for meeting and banquet is due March 15th, The conference fee is $35 for members of APS or affiliated societies who register by March 15th, A fee of $5 is assessed for late registration. Although there is no registration fee charged to students, they are asked to fill out a registratin form. The cost of the banquet is $35 for non students and $15 for students. Banquet reservations must be made by March 15th at the latest. Registration can be made by mail or online. Registration by Mail Download and complete the registration form (MS Word or a pdf file) and send it with your check or money order to: c/o Claude A Pruneau, Dept. Physics and Astronomy, Wayne State University, 666 West Hancock, Detroit, MI Only checks or money orders accepted. Address checks or money order to Wayne State University. No credit cards.

5 Abstract Information Contributed papers pertaining to all areas of physics, physics education and original research are solicited from both APS and AAPT members, for both Oral and Poster presentations. Complete abstract submission form and instructions can be found at We strongly urge you to proof your abstract before submission. Contributors may be accepted in one of two ways: Submission via the web: to submit a contributed abstract using the online web submission process, an author needs to know two things: (1) the number and ordering of the authors and collaborations; and (2) abstract content. The web page will guide you through the rest. Consider trying a test submission before submitting your abstract. Log onto and select the meeting TEST. Follow the directions online to create your own practice abstract. When ready to submit your abstract online, select the meeting 2006 Ohio Section of the APS Spring Meeting by selecting the appropriate check box. A form will be created for you. Simply input the information. Submission via Contributors must create their abstract from an electronic template supplied by the American Physical Society. The templates and instruction for contributed abstracts can be obtained by sending to abs-request@aps.org with the phrase OSS06 in the message. If you have questions regarding abstract submission, please send them to abs-help@aps.org or to pruneau@physics.wayne.edu. If you wish your abstract to be published in the APS bulletin, it must be submitted electronically. The deadline for the receipt of all submitted abstracts is March 15, 2006 by 5:00 PM EST at APS headquarters. 5
