Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy
Python Experiments in Physics and Astronomy acts as a resource for science and engineering students or faculty who would like to see how a diverse selection of topics can be analyzed and simulated using Python programs. The book also provides Python solutions that can be learned from and modified as needed. The book is mainly aimed at undergraduates, but since many science students and faculty have limited exposure to scientific programming, having a collection of examples that address curve-fitting, Fast Fourier Transforms, image photometry and image alignment, and many others could be very helpful not just for learning from, but also to support classroom projects and demonstrations. Key Features: Features tutorials using Python for non-computer science students and faculty involved with scientific programming Contains complete scientific programming examples for teaching and academic projects Presents detailed Python solutions for Physics and Astronomy topics, not normally covered in depth, because they would be too time-consuming

Physics Experiments with Arduino and Smartphones

This book on the use of Arduino and Smartphones in physics experiments, with a focus on mechanics, introduces various techniques by way of examples. The main aim is to teach students how to take meaningful measurements and how to interpret them. Each topic is introduced by an experiment. Those at the beginning of the book are rather simple to build and analyze. As the lessons proceed, the experiments become more refined and new techniques are introduced. Rather than providing recipes to be adopted while taking measurements, the need for new concepts is raised by observing the results of an experiment. A formal justification is given only after a concept has been introduced experimentally. The discussion extends beyond the taking of measurements to their meaning in terms of physics, the importance of what is learned from the laws that are derived, and their limits. Stress is placed on the importance of careful design of experiments as to reduce systematic errors and on good practices to avoid common mistakes. Data are always analyzed using computer software. C-like structures are introduced in teaching how to program Arduino, while data collection and analysis is done using Python. Several methods of graphical representation of data are used.
