Physics these days wouldn’t succeed without software. Whether those lines of code are used to control new apparatus, make sense of fresh experimental data or simulate physical phenomena based on the ...
In the worlds of high performance computing (HPC) and physics, seemingly straightforward challenges are frequently not what they seem at first glance. For example, doing justice to an outwardly simple ...
I love including numerical calculations in my introductory and advanced physics courses. I find that including coding in the introductory physics course forces students to think in different ways to ...
This summer, seven young coding whizzes contributed to CERN projects through the Google Summer of Code program. Anyone in the world with a computer can contribute to research at CERN. Through the ...
“Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!” With a sly grin that I’d soon come to recognize, Paul Ginsparg quoted Michael Corleone from The Godfather. Ginsparg, a physics professor at ...
Physicists are quietly rolling out a new generation of simulation codes that promise to do more than crunch numbers. By weaving together quantum theory, astrophysical data and high precision sensors, ...
AI Godfather’s Advice to Young Students: The world has shifted its wave drastically towards the era of artificial intelligence. Now every search engine, programs and services are AI integrated. It has ...
