The Physics Teacher
Volume 58 Issue 7
October 2020
This month's cover depicts a researcher at the Borexino neutrino detector in Gran Sasso, Italy, where they have recently reported a measurement of solar neutrinos from the CNO cycle for the first time.
Since August 1, 2014, the submission process for articles for The Physics Teacher has required authors to submit their article and cover letter at this website: http:www.editorialexpress.com/tpt. Starting June 10, 2020, the submission process for articles for The Physics Teacher will change. On or after June 10th, authors should submit their article and cover letter at this website: http://tpt.peerx-press.org/.
