This book adds a computational dimension to introductory physics mechanics course, and is intended to accompany the textbook and other course materials for that course. It uses the programming language VPython in the...
We study a ferrofluid in a horizontal Hele-Shaw geometry subjected to a vertical magnetic field. Specifically, we calculate the energy of a single ferrofluid finger using an idealized model for the finger. By minimizing this...
The Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) 58-month catalog has produced a catalog of active galactic nuclei (AGN) selected without bias by Compton-thin obscuration. Some of the AGN detected by the Swift BAT have spectral properties...
