Imaging the invisible: how can research software and imaging techniques help scientists study the things we can’t see?

Futurum

When researchers visit the facility to capture images, they are supported by scientists, including research software engineers who help them process their data and access software. Once this is done, the CTC video footage will be accessible to artificial intelligence image analysis techniques. Scientific imaging in physics.

How Did We Get Here? The Tangled History of the Second Law of Thermodynamics

Stephen Wolfram
