Abstract
The material covered in this document is to support a Yr12 Physics class excursion to ANSTO where students will be taken on a guided tour of OPAL, our new research reactor, and related facilities. This document combined with the excursion to ANSTO, is of particular relevance to those studying the option Quanta to Quarks, but also supports certain aspects of the Medical Physics option. The document contains much of the important theory that relates to the material contained in the NSW HSC Physics course outcomes shown below, and includes activities and questions for students to complete as preparation for the excursion and during their tour of the ANSTO facilities.
