Chem 403: Analysis Of Arsenic In Wine Using Xrf, Hannah Meyls Apr 2020

Chem 403: Analysis Of Arsenic In Wine Using Xrf, Hannah Meyls

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

Arsenic contamination in food and beverages is a problem due to the harm it can cause consumers. Currently in the United States there is no regulation limit. Red, white, and pink wines will be analyzed for their concentration of inorganic arsenic. Analysis of the wines will be analyzed by x-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF). From this experiment we hope to develop a new method for measuring low concentrations of arsenic in wine.

Physics 223 Poster: Hubble Law, Andrew Burghaus

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

The Objective of this experiment was to determine The Hubble constant.1 The Hubble constant is a ratio of the recessional velocity of distant galaxies to the distance that galaxy is from the Milky way. The constant can then be used to calculate the age of the universe. Doing this will allow us to compare our results with a more accepted quantity.

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

The objective of this experiment was to calculate the age of the universe. This was done by using provided astronomical data to calculate an experimental Hubble’s constant to which Hubble’s law was applied.

Physics 223 Poster: Hubble Law, Rayshad Lindsay

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

In the work is to determine the value for Hubble’s constant based on observing images and spectra of various spiral galaxies and determining the age of the universe.

Physics 223 Poster: Statistical Mechanics And Dice, Ibrahim Maday

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

In this experiment we will •explore the realm of statistical mechanics by rolling dice. •calculate the multiplicity and entropy of varying dice rolls. •determine the type of distribution pattern that it follows.

Physics 223 Poster: Hubble Law, Nick Zebhideh

2020 Virtual Spring Student Showcase for Research and Creative Inquiry

The purpose of this experiment was to calculate an experimental Hubble constant value and use that value to calculate an estimated age of the universe using data drawn from the Hubble Law Lab from the University of Washington. Both experimental values were then compared to the most recent accepted values respectively.
