Introduction Although not explicitly discussed, a previous blog on detonation modeling made use of multiple software packages to explore optical effects manifested by the strong pressure (P) and temperature (T) profiles of explosion shockwaves. Specifically, the...
Introduction In a previous blog post, we briefly discussed ionospheric physics, specifically focusing on the ionosphere’s composition and fluidity. One particularly difficult aspect about the ionosphere is that despite being a massive churning shell of plasma...
Introduction Ensuring that specific chemicals are used, stored, and disposed of properly can be a dangerous and hazardous occupation. Some toxic gases like carbon monoxide ([math]CO[/math]) and carbon dioxide ([math]CO_2[/math]) are odorless and colorless, making...
Introduction Many of the advancements in satellite imagery and data analysis have gone towards automating data analysis and improving the world’s agriculture. At the heart of this analysis, though, lies a problem often neglected in conversations: how do...
Introduction The field of Optics is very old. Although many of today’s widely used optical devices (ex. glasses, interferometers, cameras, etc.) seem to have reached their final stage of evolution, a keen eye for details quickly illustrates this is not the...
