Resources
This part of the TRUMP Astrophysics resource package dealt with historical and modern observations of planets and their orbital motions. Like all other parts of the TRUMP package, this part contains study notes (self-study material for teachers), teaching notes and photocopiable student sheets.
The Teaching Resources Unit for Modern Physics (TRUMP) is a collaboration between school teachers and academic experts whose aim is to support the teaching of modern physics in post-16 courses.
The Astrophysics package was published in 1997. It was written primarily to support modules currently available in...

The TRUMP BaBar Resource Package was produced for, and sponsored by, the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PPARC). The package has three main components: a booklet of notes and information for teachers, a set of photocopiable student sheets and three colour posters/leaflets. This package was linked...
TRUMP BaBar Resource Package: Posters/Leaflets
The TRUMP BaBar Resource Package, from the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PPARC), included three colour posters/leaflets about matter, antimatter and the BaBar experiment. The posters help to explain how the BaBar experiment was designed to study the interactions between B and B-bar mesons as part...
TRUMP BaBar Resource Package: Student Sheets
The TRUMP BaBar Resource Package, from the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PPARC) included a set of copiable student sheets. The activities were linked to the particle physics experiment called BaBar, which was designed to study the interactions between B and B-bar mesons. The sheets include...
TRUMP BaBar Resource Package: Teachers' Notes
The BaBar Resource Package, from the Particle Physics and Astronomy Research Council (PPARC), was written for teachers (and students) with a basic knowledge of modern particle physics, at the level set out in the resources from the TRUMP Particle Physics Project....
TRUMP Part 1: Introduction to Astrophysics
This introductory part of the TRUMP Astrophysics package gave an overview of the current picture of the Universe. It provided some information relating to telescopes and observations, and ended with two examples of physics in astronomy:
*the use of line spectra to...
TRUMP Part 2: Observational Properties of Astronomical Objects
Part 2 of the TRUMP Astrophysics resource package dealt with the observational properties of astronomical objects and was therefore concerned with the analysis and interpretation of observations.
Like Part 1 of the TRUMP package, this part contained study notes (self-study material for teachers), teaching...
TRUMP Part 3: Star Formation and Evolution
This part of the TRUMP Astrophysics resource package dealt with the formation, evolution and 'death' of stars. Like all other parts of the TRUMP package, this part contains study notes (self-study material for teachers), teaching notes and photocopiable student sheets...
