Developing Ultrafast Physics Tutorials for the AMOS Gateway

POSTER

Abstract

The Atomic, Molecular, and Optical Science Gateway (AMOSGateway) [1] is a computational portal where researchers and educators can access a synergistic, full-scope platform for computational AMOS. The AMOS Gateway currently hosts ten state-of-the-art software suites for computing atomic spectra, transition probabilities, electron and positron collision and photoionization processes, including short-pulse intense-field laser-atom/molecule interactions. Software suites are accessed directly on the gateway, as are the required computing resources, providing novice users with a convenient way to perform calculations. The ease-of-use of the AMOS Gateway also presents an opportunity for involving research-grade software in classroom instruction. In this presentation we will demonstrate the use of Ultrafast Physics tutorials created for undergraduate instruction at the University of Colorado Denver. The tutorials are hosted on the AMOS Gateway and use several of the hosted software suites. We will comment on classroom implementation, student opinions of the tutorials, and future plans for tutorial development.
