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

Futurum

Scientific model — a conceptual or mathematical representation of a real-world phenomenon that allows scientists to study the phenomenon in more detail. Scientists can now turn their theories into mathematical models, which can then be expressed in software as simulations. Chemistry with Dr Nicole Hondow and Stuart Micklethwaite.

The Story Continues: Announcing Version 14 of Wolfram Language and Mathematica

Stephen Wolfram

Then for each function (or other construct in the language) there are pages that explain the function, with extensive examples. One new construct added in Version 13.1 —and And now there’s a way to specify that, using Threaded : In a sense, Threaded is part of a new wave of symbolic constructs that have “ambient effects” on lists.

“Nanoscientists manipulate materials at the atomic and molecular level, and thus nanoscience merges physics, chemistry, materials science and biology,” explains Susanne. For us, CeNS is the ideal hub to catch the scientific questions in physics, chemistry, materials science and biology that can be addressed with TEM,” he says.

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

Stephen Wolfram

It began partly as an empirical law, and partly as something abstractly constructed on the basis of the idea of molecules, that nobody at the time knew for sure existed. There were still mathematical loose ends, as well as issues such as its application to living systems and to systems involving gravity.

Launching Version 13.1 of Wolfram Language & Mathematica ??????

Stephen Wolfram

we have a new symbolic construct, Threaded , that effectively allows you to easily generalize listability. Why is such a construct needed? Now “characters” could be 16-bit constructs, with nearly 65536 possible “glyphs” allocated across different languages and uses (including some mathematical symbols that we introduced).
