Physics BS & Minor Because physics is the basis of most Physics B.S & Minor engineering disciplines, understanding basic principles of physics can help one become a better engineer. Many students choose a double major, consisting of physics plus some field of engineering. Students going this route often end up in industrial research and development. In a rapidly changing economy where one field of engineering may be in a slump while others are not, understanding physics can assist students in moving across disciplines. For these reasons, students interested in engineering are encouraged to Contact Information consider double majors. Dr. Richard Schnee Physics majors interested in pursuing a career Department of Physics in high school teaching should take standard Dakota Building 101 courses for a physics degree and apply to Black (605) 394-5206 Hills State University's Master in Secondary E-mail: [email protected] Education - Project SECOND. This program prepares students to earn initial certification in the Physics fields of physics, math, chemistry, and sometimes The goal of a program of study in physics is biology. Another option for physics students to provide students with an understanding of the interested in teaching would be to double major in basic laws of physics and to develop skills that physics at Mines and Education at Black Hills will enable students to further explore physical State. phenomena and to solve related problems. Students should have a sense of curiosity Minor in Physics about their surroundings and a strong desire, not A minor in physics requires a minimum of 18 only to find solutions to problems that are hours of courses in physics, which must include encountered, but also to develop a deeper PHYS 213, and at least 15 hours of physics courses understanding of the basic principles involved. numbered higher than PHYS 213.

Laboratory guidelines for minors. skills are also emphasized. For the bachelor of science, students are not Physics Laboratories expected to specialize in a branch of physics. The department facilities are ample for all However, the curriculum has room for electives. aspects of the department’s experimental work Recommended electives are listed for students from the introductory laboratories through graduate seeking employment or further studies in research. They are equipped to enable students to engineering, computational, medical, or observe physical phenomena, demonstrate physical atmospheric physics, The curriculum provides a principles, and learn techniques for making background in applications of physics for quantitative measurements in the fields of students seeking employment in industry and also mechanics, heat, optics, electricity and magnetism, provides a solid foundation for graduate study in atomic, particle, and solid state physics. The physics or in other fields such as geophysics, equipment is the type that students are likely to meteorology, metallurgy, computer science, encounter after graduation, with emphasis on mathematics, materials science, medical physics, computer-based data acquisition and control of and many branches of engineering. experiments.

  • The 4S Symposium 2018 – B. Yost 1 the SMALL SPACECRAFT
    THE SMALL SPACECRAFT SYSTEMS VIRTUAL INSTITUTE (S3VI) AND NASA’S SMALL SPACECRAFT ENTERPRISE Bruce D. Yost (1), Julianna L. Fishman (2) (1) National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035, U.S.A, [email protected], 650-604-0681 (2) Technology Horse LLC, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, CA 94035, U.S.A, [email protected], 650-604-0637 ABSTRACT The mission of the Small Spacecraft Systems Virtual Institute (S3VI) is to advance the field of small spacecraft systems and allied sciences by promoting innovation, exploring new concepts, identifying emerging technology opportunities, and establishing effective conduits for the collaboration and the dissemination of research results relevant to small spacecraft systems. The S3VI is the common portal for NASA related small spacecraft activities. The portal hosts the Small Spacecraft Body of Knowledge as an online resource for the Small Spacecraft Technology State of the Art report, and reliability processes and practices, among other small spacecraft-focused content. The S3VI’s first year activities focused on development of the web portal and investment in collaborative tools to host and support working groups formed to concentrate on a variety of small spacecraft topics such as reliability and access to space. The S3VI serves as the front door for other governmental and non-governmental organizations that wish to collaborate or interact with NASA small spacecraft organizations. NASA presently has a growing number of small spacecraft related programs, projects, and efforts underway to advance the state of the art of small spacecraft instruments, technologies, and missions in order for NASA to achieve its science and exploration goals.

  • Technology Acceleration Process for the THEMIS Low Cost and Reusable Prototype
    DOI: 10.13009/EUCASS2019-97 8TH EUROPEAN CONFERENCE FOR AERONAUTICS AND SPACE SCIENCES (EUCASS) Technology acceleration process for the THEMIS low cost and reusable prototype Jerome VILA* and Jeremie HASSIN** *ArianeWorks / CNES [email protected] **ArianeWorks / CNES [email protected] Abstract While Ariane 6 and Vega-C are about to being fielded and entering operations, CNES and Arianegroup are already actively preparing next generation of European launchers. With the PROMETHEUS oxygen/methan engine starting subsystems testing in 2018, and the CALLISTO experimental reusable vehicle about to complete Preliminary Design, engineering work has been initiated for next step on the European roadmap: THEMIS. THEMIS is both a demonstrator and a prototype of a low cost and reusable first stage, meant as the centrepiece of future Ariane architectures. It is intended to feature PROMETHEUS and will build upon technologies and lessons learned from the CALLISTO programme. Several challenges lie ahead for THEMIS, with two highlights: meeting an aggressive cost targets consistent with the 50% launch cost cut sought beyond Ariane 6, and keeping a swift tempo for getting THEMIS ready well before 2025. To address those challenges, a specific initiative was undertaken by CNES and Arianegroup, under codename ArianeWorks: combining both a “Skunkworks like” approach and an open-innovation platform, ArianeWorks is tasked with getting the project done quicker and bolder than through a conventional organization. The paper will discuss the system engineering approach adopted for THEMIS design, by identifying and then allocating technical objectives related to Ariane 6 evolution/Ariane NEXT between CALLISTO and different sized THEMIS options. Then, the early hardware/testing “agile” development process will be detailed, with an aim at speeding up design iterations and technology maturations.

  • Enabling the Enterprise Through Hybrid Cloud
    Enabling the Enterprise Through Hybrid Cloud Transforming to a Digital Enterprise Enabling the Enterprise Through Hybrid Cloud Traditional IT environments can’t match the pace of change in modern enterprises, and that’s why the hybrid cloud platform is a key element in the digital transformation journey. Combining the capabilities available in the public cloud environment with a modern, on-premises cloud platform eliminates the restrictions of a traditional IT approach, creating a business-relevant infrastructure to meet the demands of business stakeholders, end users and developers. Hybrid cloud environments enable organizations to rapidly develop, deploy, execute and protect next-generation applications through a flexible, policy-driven software-defined platform that reinforces the value IT brings to the business. 2 Enabling the Enterprise Through Hybrid Cloud IT has a tradition of building silos of technology. Sometimes IT builds silos because the organization has discrete functional requirements. Sometimes it builds them because of budgetary cycles, software licensing, hardware scalability or a convincing sales message. Whatever the cause, organizations often end up with many data repositories and a complex, inflated IT estate. Even as walls go up between applications and data, however, businesses need to tear them down. New channels require new applications. Market windows open and close in a matter of months, even weeks. As a result, application needs have undergone a dramatic shift. Today, the table stakes for new applications include the ability to interface with loosely coupled services, to implement infrastructure as code and to tolerate failures. Application developers, data scientists, business analysts, and infrastructure service providers must work together collaboratively to meet the dynamic needs of the digital enterprise.
