The cooling of a swede-part of an EUSO CSI challenge

Pendrill, Ann Marie LU orcid (2021) In Physics Education 56(2).
Abstract

This paper presents preparations, execution and reflection on results for the physics part of a CSI task for the European Union Science Olympiad 2010, taking place at the University of Gothenburg. The participants were required to make a graph of the cooling of a swede (Brassicanapus), as a proxy for the cooling of a murder victim, and to choose a mathematical expression for the cooling curve, as well as assigning an approximate time of death.
