The Physics Teacher
Volume 58 Issue 3, March 2020
This month's cover poses a classic rainbow conundrum, and celebrates more than three decades of wonderfully compelling “Figuring Physics” cartoons from well-known physics educator Paul Hewitt. For more about rainbows in this issue, see Ken Ford's article “” and Jennifer and Ignacio Birriel’s paper “”. For details about the origins of the “Figuring Physics” series, see , but if you want to see the solution to the cover conundrum in print, you’ll have to wait until next month!.
