Guide to Electricity and Magnetism (eBook, PDF)

Using Mathematica for Calculations and Visualizations

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

This is a "how to guide" for a calculus-based introductory course in electricity and magnetism. Students taking the subject at an intermediate or advanced level may also find it to be a useful reference. The calculations are performed in Mathematica, and stress graphical visualization, units, and numerical answers. The techniques show the student how to learn the physics without being hung up on the math. There is a continuing movement to introduce more advanced computational methods into lower-level physics courses. Mathematica is a unique tool in that code is written as "human readable" much like one writes a traditional equation on the board.

Key Features:

• Concise summary of the physics concepts.
• Over 300 worked examples in Mathematica.
• Tutorial to allow a beginner to produce fast results.

Autorenporträt

> c. At CERN, he worked on the discovery of the W and Z bosons and measurement of their properties. Presently, he is working on the Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) which discovered the Higgs boson and is searching for new phenomena beyond the standard model.
