Open Source Physics, or OSP, is a project sponsored by the National Science Foundation and Davidson College, whose mission is to spread the use of open source code libraries that take care of a lot of the heavy lifting for physics: drawing and plotting, differential equation solvers, exporting to animated GIFs and movies, etc., tools, and compiled simulations for physics and other numerical ...
Tracking (particle physics) In particle physics, tracking is the process of reconstructing the trajectory (or track) of electrically charged particles in a particle detector known as a tracker. The particles entering such a tracker leave a precise record of their passage through the device, by interaction with suitably constructed components ...
STAR detector. The STAR detector (for Solenoidal Tracker at RHIC) is one of the four experiments at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC) in Brookhaven National Laboratory, United States. [ 1][ 2][ 3] The primary scientific objective of STAR is to study the formation and characteristics of the quark–gluon plasma (QGP), a state of matter ...
Single-particle tracking ( SPT) is the observation of the motion of individual particles within a medium. The coordinates time series, which can be either in two dimensions ( x, y) or in three dimensions ( x, y, z ), is referred to as a trajectory. The trajectory is typically analyzed using statistical methods to extract information about the ...
The innermost layer is a silicon-based tracker. Surrounding it is a scintillating crystal electromagnetic calorimeter, which is itself surrounded with a sampling calorimeter for hadrons. The tracker and the calorimetry are compact enough to fit inside the CMS Solenoid which generates a powerful magnetic field of 3.8 T. Outside the magnet are ...
PhET Interactive Simulations. PhET Interactive Simulations, a project at the University of Colorado Boulder, is a non-profit [ 1] open educational resource project that creates and hosts explorable explanations. It was founded in 2002 by Nobel Laureate Carl Wieman. PhET began with Wieman's vision to improve the way science is taught and learned.
Star tracker. The STARS real-time star tracking software operates on an image from EBEX 2012, a high-altitude balloon-borne cosmology experiment launched from Antarctica on 2012-12-29. A star tracker is an optical device that measures the positions of stars using photocells or a camera. [ 1] As the positions of many stars have been measured by ...
According to CNET, the data set contains details on 5,326 domains used by 1,727 companies to track users online. DuckDuckGo hopes that developers will use Tracker Radar to block online tracking ...
