Popular media and other outreach |
|
This page lists some popular science stories, videos and
podcasts I have contributed to, and other general outreach activity. I have not always kept track!
A sunspot's tale
COSMOS online story about active region 11029 by Heather Catchpole (Feb 2010).
Australian Sky & Telescope article about active region 11029,
edited by Greg Bryant (Jul 2010). [I wrote this following a request

The falling slinky
Also, a
Uni of Sydney online News story (December 2012) was written
by Verity Leatherdale about the American Journal of Physics article
(available from my publications page) I wrote
with Rod Cross on the slinky. In February 2013 I recorded an
Academic Minute for the US Northeast Public Radio, which aired in
March 2013. The mp3 file from the story is archived here.
I also have a page with more information on the slinky work.
