Today computers and computation is part of everyday life and one of the essential components of science. To name some examples, our mobile phones are more sophisticated computers than the first PCs, our IDs tend to be digital, everyone has emails and most people have mobile banks. In the last few months the new artificial intelligence (AI) softwares have generated much attention, however AI...
In this work we solved the equation of scalar and tensor perturbations for the generalized Starobinsky inflationary model using the improved uniform approximation method and the phase-integral method up to third-order in deviation. We compare our results with the numerical integration. We have obtained that both semiclassical methods reproduce the scalar power spectra P, the scalar spectral...
In this tutorial you will learn to use Fast Fourier Transform algorithms in python to solve parabolic and hyperbolic partial differential equations. There will be guided examples on how to solve the fluid dynamics equations and you will have the chance to work on proposed problems too.
In this tutorial you will learn to carry our Monte Carlo simulations in python with the purpose of studying physical systems. There will be guided examples on how to carry out Monte Carlo simulations, and you will have time to work on a proposed problem too.
The Pseudospectra is a powerful tool to analyze the behavior of dynamic systems associated to non-normal matrices. Studies and applications have increased in the last decades, thus, its efficient computation has become of interest for the scientific community. In the large scale setting, different approaches have been proposed, some of them based on projection on Krylov subspaces. In this...
Data analysis is a key component of experimental physics, this is why the knowledge of frameworks and programming languages is necessary for physicists. In particle physics for example, the ROOT framework is widely used because of its graphical interface for interactive analysis and its capacity to store and analyze large sets of data of more than 1 exabyte. In this talk, I will be introducing...
Explanation about bioimages (i.e. fluorescence microscopy), Bioimage analysis example: quantifying cell morphology from 2D fluorescence micrographs, Importing images and plotting images, Logical operators (pixel-wise operations), Intensity Transformation, Filters and Fourier transformations, Segmentation, Extracting data from segmented images (e.g. cell area, elongation).
Photoinduced processes play a crucial role in different fields of science, for example, the photoisomerization of the retinal chromophore or the synthesis of vitamin D3. Additionally, they are crucial in the development of new technologies such as molecular electronic devices which can be controlled by light. These processes are governed mainly by nonadiabatic transitions which are...
Relatos y referencias históricas de las circunstancias e incidencias que llevaron a la creación del metro como unidad de medida de longitud por parte de los académicos de la Mision Geodesica francesa en Quito el año de 1744.
Brief explanation on astrophysics behind galaxies and their neutral hydrogen (HI content). Reading in fits data cubes (3D spectral line data - HI data of a galaxy). Plotting slices of the 3D data cube and making moment maps. Downloading astronomical images from a database (for the same galaxy as the HI data). Making an overlay of the HI data onto an optical image. Calculating some basic...
