Guide to Modern Physics Using Mathematica for Calculations and Visualizations

This is a how to guide for making beginning calculations in modern physics. The academic level is second year college physical science and engineering students. 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. The companion code for this book can be found here: https://physics. bu. edu/~rohlf/code. html James Rohlf is a Professor at Boston University. As a graduate student he worked on the first experiment to trigger on hadron jets with a calorimeter Fermilab E260. His thesis (G. C. Fox advisor C. Barnes R. P. Feynman R. Gomez) used the model of Field and Feynman to compare observed jets from hadron collisions to that from electron-positron collisions and made detailed acceptance corrections to arrive at first the measurement of quark-quark scattering cross sections. His thesis is published in Nuclear Physics B171 (1980) 1. At the Cornell Electron Storage Rings he worked on the discovery of the Upsilon (4S) resonance and using novel event shape variables developed by Stephen Wolfram and his thesis advisor Geoffrey Fox. He performed particle identification of kaons and charmed mesons to establish the quark decay sequence b –> 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. | Guide to Modern Physics Using Mathematica for Calculations and Visualizations
