A fully updated tutorial on the basics of the Python programming
language for science students Python is a computer programming
language that has gained popularity throughout the sciences. This
fully updated second edition of A Student's Guide to Python for
Physical Modeling aims to help you, the student, teach yourself
enough of the Python programming language to get started with
physical modeling. You will learn how to install an open-source
Python programming environment and use it to accomplish many common
scientific computing tasks: importing, exporting, and visualizing
data; numerical analysis; and simulation. No prior programming
experience is assumed. This guide introduces a wide range of useful
tools, including: Basic Python programming and scripting Numerical
arrays Two- and three-dimensional graphics Animation Monte Carlo
simulations Numerical methods, including solving ordinary
differential equations Image processing Numerous code samples and
exercises-with solutions-illustrate new ideas as they are
introduced. This guide also includes supplemental online resources:
code samples, data sets, tutorials, and more. This edition includes
new material on symbolic calculations with SymPy, an introduction
to Python libraries for data science and machine learning (pandas
and sklearn), and a primer on Python classes and object-oriented
programming. A new appendix also introduces command line tools and
version control with Git.
A richly illustrated undergraduate textbook on the physics and
biology of light Students in the physical and life sciences, and in
engineering, need to know about the physics and biology of light.
Recently, it has become increasingly clear that an understanding of
the quantum nature of light is essential, both for the latest
imaging technologies and to advance our knowledge of fundamental
life processes, such as photosynthesis and human vision. From
Photon to Neuron provides undergraduates with an accessible
introduction to the physics of light and offers a unified view of a
broad range of optical and biological phenomena. Along the way,
this richly illustrated textbook builds the necessary background in
neuroscience, photochemistry, and other disciplines, with
applications to optogenetics, superresolution microscopy, the
single-photon response of individual photoreceptor cells, and more.
With its integrated approach, From Photon to Neuron can be used as
the basis for interdisciplinary courses in physics, biophysics,
sensory neuroscience, biophotonics, bioengineering, or
nanotechnology. The goal is always for students to gain the fluency
needed to derive every result for themselves, so the book includes
a wealth of exercises, including many that guide students to create
computer-based solutions. Supplementary online materials include
real experimental data to use with the exercises. * Assumes
familiarity with first-year undergraduate physics and the
corresponding math * Overlaps the goals of the MCAT, which now
includes data-based and statistical reasoning * Advanced chapters
and sections also make the book suitable for graduate courses * An
Instructor's Guide and illustration package is available to
professors

Many of the earliest books, particularly those dating back to the
1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly
expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable,
high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork.
In aseptic processing, food is stored at ambient temperatures in
sterilized containers free of spoilage organisms and pathogens. The
results of this food technology come in all shapes and sizes, from
the consumer packages of milk on the shelves of the supermarket to
the huge containers full of orange juice transported around the
world by cargo ships. Over the last couple of decades, aseptic bulk
storage and distribution has revolutionized the global food trade.
For example, more than 90 percent of the approximately 24 million
tons of fresh tomatoes harvested globally each year are aseptically
processed and packaged for year-round remanufacture into various
food products. The technology has also been applied to bring
potable water and emergency food aid to survivors of the 2004
tsunami in Southeast Asia and the victims of Hurricane Katrina in
2005, as well as to other crisis situations worldwide. The
construction of new aseptic facilities continues around the world,
and an up-to-date understanding of the technology is essential for
a new generation of food scientists and engineers alike. The
contributors to this important textbook discuss all aspects of
aseptic processing and packaging, focusing on the areas that most
influence the success or failure of the process. Fully updated,
this new edition covers all areas of chemistry, microbiology,
engineering, packaging, and regulations as they relate to aseptic
processing.
