This updated edition provides an introduction to computational
physics in order to perform physics experiments on the computer.
Computers can be used for a wide variety of scientific tasks, from
the simple manipulation of data to simulations of real-world
events. This book is designed to provide the reader with a
grounding in scientific programming. It contains many examples and
exercises developed in the context of physics problems. The new
edition now uses C++ as the primary language. The book covers
topics such as interpolation, integration, and the numerical
solutions to both ordinary and partial differential equations. It
discusses simple ideas, such as linear interpolation and root
finding through bisection, to more advanced concepts in order to
solve complex differential equations. It also contains a chapter on
high performance computing which provides an introduction to
parallel programming. Features Includes some advanced material as
well as the customary introductory topics Uses a comprehensive C++
library and several C++ sample programs ready to use and build into
a library of scientific programs Features problem-solving aspects
to show how problems are approached and to demonstrate the methods
of constructing models and solutions
This book presents a detailed look at experimental and
computational techniques for accurate structure determination of
free molecules. The most fundamental property of a molecule is its
structure - it is a prerequisite for determining and understanding
most other important properties of molecules. The determination of
accurate structures is hampered by a myriad of factors, subjecting
the collected data to non-negligible systematic errors. This book
explains the origin of these errors and how to mitigate and even
avoid them altogether. It features a detailed comparison of the
different experimental and computation methods, explaining their
interplay and the advantages of their combined use. Armed with this
information, the reader will be able to choose the appropriate
methods to determine - to a great degree of accuracy - the relevant
molecular structure.

The ultimate DIY project guide for techie dads raising kids in
their own geeky image, in the spirit of "The Dangerous Book for
Boys"
Today's generation of dads grew up more tech-savvy than ever.
Rather than joining the Little League team, many grew up playing
computer games, Dungeons and Dragons, and watching "Star Wars." Now
with kids of their own, these digital-age dads are looking for
fresh ways to share their love of science and technology, and help
their kids develop a passion for learning and discovery.
Enter supergeek, and father of two, Ken Denmead. An engineer and
editor of the incredibly popular GeekDad blog on wired.com, Ken has
created the ultimate, idea-packed guide guaranteed to help dads and
kids alike enjoy the magic of playtime together and tap into the
infinite possibility of their imagination. With illustrations
throughout, this book offers projects for all ages to suit any
timeframe or budget. With Denmead's expert guidance, you and your
child can:
-Fly a night-time kite ablaze with lights or launch a video camera
with balloons
-Construct the "Best Slip n' Slide Ever," a guaranteed thrill ride
-Build a working lamp with LEGO bricks and CDs
-Create a customized comic strip or your own board game
-Transform any room into a spaceship
-Make geeky crafts like cyborg jack-o'-lanterns or Ethernet cuff
