Some Useful Resources

 

In this post I will be sharing with you some resources concerning Science, Mathematics & Engineering which i personally found interesting and useful.

Useful links:

• Terrance Tao's WordPress : This is an extraordinary web-page by the legend himself. You can see Terry Tao's latest as well as older research papers and applets. There you have pages to guide you in mathematical writing and career advice. You could also discuss the topics and Professor Tao may reply to your queries as he is quite active on this page. So do take a look at this site it is indeed a treasure.
  
• Math handouts by K. Conrad : Its just heavens. Professor K. Conrad has provided enthusiasts as well as formal students with mind bobbling collection of expository papers. Sub-collections include topics like rings and field theory to multilinear algebra. He covers Number Theory, group theory, analysis, topology and much more. He has a sub-collection devoted to mathematical writing also.

Useful sites:

• arXiv : This is a standard place where you can upload your own research and view others research. It is open source free access but is not peer reviewed. It is by all means a very powerful place for researcher as well as enthusiasts.
  
• MIT OCW : Study in MIT for free! free! free! Sounds interesting. All MIT course lecture notes and problem sets are available on this site for students and educators around the globe for free. The quality of the resources need no description so go immediately and enhance yourself.
• Google Scholar : This is a place for researchers where they can find out their paper citations and other author's paper summary and target journals. Indispensable tool for even a newbie.
• Github : A place for computer scientists as well as other engineers, scientists and mathematicians who need computational support for their ventures. You can access repositories having codes for specific tasks which could be used in your project as well as you can contribute to that repository.

Useful YouTube channels:

• CERN : Official channel of CERN brings to you latest developments going on in the forefront of science.
• 3Blue1Brown : Coolest math channel. You would surely be knowing about it.
  
• For the Love of Physics : A superb platform to learn awesome physics by a superb Professor. 
• Stand-up Maths : Matt Parker's official maths channel for lighter math content.
• The Math Sorcerer : A math student offering advice and book reviews.
• Veritasium : Explores science, science and science in awesome way.
• RICHARD E. BORCHEREDS : Channel by the Fields Medalist himself. Gives lectures regarding advanced mathematics.
• NileRed : You can watch and learn awesome chemistry. 
• Mathologer : Shows the power of mathemagic.
• Gareeb Scientist : Does a great job in displaying the latest technological developments in India.
• Andrew Dotson : A Physics student providing useful advises and resources for interested public .
• Nobel Prize : Watch interviews and the Nobel events here.
• SpaceX : Don't need to say much.
• NASA : Useful resource for space enthusiasts.
• Life Around Science : Another physics student giving useful tips to students.
• Kurzgesat - In a Nutshell : Giving insight into generally unexplored topics.
• Lectures by Walter Lewin : The legendary MIT professor has almost all his lectures uploaded here.
• GreatScott! : Superb electronics channel for hobbyist and professionals.
• DroneBot Workshop : In detailed videos about electronics projects and tutorials .

Markov Chain Monte Carlo Simulations posted on Github

I have created a Github repository concerning simple Markov Chain Monte Carlo simulations.

Link to the repository : https://github.com/PrasannaPaithankar/Monte-Carlo

The programming language used is JAVA .

I have added three simple statistical program description of which can be found in the repository. I have also included three simple ways to compute the number pi.

Do check it out and give suggestions.

I will be updating the repository regularly by adding new programs and making old ones more robust.

You can freely use the codes for educational purpose.

Active! Active! Active!

  I have become active on blogger now.

  Now you will get new expository papers and useful resources for learning.

  Your suggestions are  of the highest value. 

Small, Smaller, Smallest.....

                                                     
    QUANTUM MECHANICS have completely changed everyone's view of seeing this cosmos. We started from simple astronomy to gravity and further went to electromagnetism. What after electromagnetism ? It was quantum mechanics & relativity...
   We have always imagined about what could be the smallest particle. In ancient times people thought that things were made up of elements like water, rocks, air and fire. Then some thought that everything is a form of water. In the recent past people believed that matter was made up of indivisible particle called atoms. Then we discovered electrons, protons and neutrons. We did not stop there. We then discovered what protons and neutrons were made up of. There was a debate since ancient times whether light is a stream of particle or a wave. Answers to that were given by Quantum Mechanics.
             
             Quantum Mechanics is the study of light and matter and the interaction between them
