ARP Deep Dives

Opportunity to Ask Your Questions

A Deep Dive gives your students direct access to an expert in a specific physics field. It is their opportunity to engage with a researcher who works daily on that exact topic, whether it's the hunt for planets around other stars, what happens when protons collide, or the physics that makes MRI machines work.

Once the date is set, your students receive reading and videos recommended by the researcher to prepare them. They dive into one focused area with someone actively advancing it, getting answers to questions they can't find anywhere else, and gaining insights that go beyond the surface. It's how they explore a subject deeply, understand what it's really like to work in that field, and determine if it's the right fit for them.

Topics

• The universe's first second
• The limits of the Standard Model
• How quantum computers compute
• Measuring black holes
• Finding planets around other stars
• What detectors see in proton collisions
• Clocks precise enough to measure gravity
• Building a universe inside a computer
• Designing materials before they exist
• Magnets that levitate trains
• Building a star on Earth
• Trapping atoms with light
• The physics inside MRI scanners

How It Works

1. 1

   You choose a topic

   Pick from the list or propose your own.

2. 2

   We match an expert

   A physicist actively moving that field forward, publishing in it and respected by the people in it.

3. 3

   We agree the date and format

   Live online, or in person at your school.

4. 4

   The expert prepares the reading

   Recommended reading and videos reach your students ahead of the session, so the room starts from the same place.

5. 5

   The session

   Ninety minutes, and your students' questions decide where it goes.
