Subject: San Diego Tech Meeting 1/06
Dear Physics Faculty,
I have been arranging a meeting for technicians and teachers at
UC San
Diego for this Saturday at 6pm. So far I have 14 people coming and
room
for 200. I hope that you will be available to attend it if you are
planning on being in San Diego for the AAPT Conference. The program
is
designed to be a Share-a-thon. This means that those coming will be
sharing demonstrations for everyone to see. If you can attend,
please let
me know. We are going to have free pizza for all those who come.
Below,
you will find the information needed to get there. Please send this
out on
Phys-L, if you happen to be on that listserv.
Thanks! ...Doug
P.S. UCSD plans on showing their:
Muon spark chamber
Color addition board
Ripple tank projection
============================================================
Directions to UCSD can be found at:
http://www.ucsd.edu/visit/directions.htmlThere is a link on that page to the campus map:
http://www.ucsd.edu/map/The printable map is your best bet, if you can't read pdf for some
reason, the interactive map is gif.
Warren Lecture Hall is Bldg. 625 on the map. Look in the NorthEast
quadrant for Earl Warren College, down a little to where it says
Jacobs School of Engineering, Bldg. 625 is directly below that. We
will be in Warren Lecture Hall 2001, accessible on the North side.
Parking on weekends is free, but reserved spaces, and some of the
(red) faculty spaces are off limits without a permit. They should
be
marked, if a permit is required.
I recommend trying lot p403, if nothing is available there, then
either p502 or p406. p406 is a parking structure now, both of these
lots are just a long block from Warren Lecture Hall.
We plan to feature:
Muon spark chamber
Color addition board
ripple tank projection
and we may do:
bowling ball pendulum
EtOH rocket (with or without Tesla coil - I've got a friend with a
big one, but he's unconfirmed)
