I'm hoping there's a reasonable answer to this. To summarize, data I acquired when imaging a particular target shows that I can retain 75% of my images for stacking at 10s exposure times, but only 50% of the images taken with 15s exposures. The difference is entirely due to tracking error and...
Has anyone ever discovered 2 or more gravitational lenses perfectly aligned with earth? So one lens magnifies the galaxies behind it and another lens between the first and earth magnifies it even more? Would you even be able to tell if they were?
I have an encoder that measures the rotational angle of a shaft. The problem is that the other end of the shaft can move in X and Y (forward/backward and left/right) as well as rotate. Assuming I can get couplings to link the shaft to the encoder and the moving item, will the encoder always...
It seems that "most" stock sedans do not have adjustable caster, camber and turning angle, provisions are only provided to adjust toe only. I'm trying to find a way to DIY this at home, if this is possible, and had some questions on the theory behind it.
For my car, the stated toe specification...

I am using 2 lenses in a 4f configuration. The input is a large collimated beam (632nm). After passage through the 2 lenses the beams vertical dimension remains constant, however, the horizontal dimension get smaller, as if it is being focused only in the horizontal direction. Does anyone have...

Hi,
How do I left align the text below? Also, how do I create vertical spaces above and below the line stating "Subbing the following expressions..."? Could you please help me with it?To derive 14(ii) m_{0} \gamma^{2} \frac{d^{2} y}{d t^{2}}=e E_{y}^{\prime} from 13(ii) m_{0} \frac{d^{2}...
Hello,
So I know that the magnetic moments of atoms are dependent on the spin and orbital angular momenta of its electrons. Both of these quantities are limited by the uncertainty principle so that neither of their direction and magnitude can be known simultaneously with arbitrary precision...
Assuming we have an infinite plane capacitor,where the upper plate is charged positively and the bottom layer is charged negatively. Now we know the field outside the capacitor is zero so we can't tell if the positive charge is on the upper plate or the lower plate.
But, if we place it inside...

The Earth’s magnetic field is slowly moving with respect to the Earth’s surface and to the Sun’s incoming radiation and solar wind direction. Does the tilting/moving of Earth’s magnetic field axis to the incoming solar wind direction change the protection on different points of the Earth’s...
Hi all
I have simultaneously recorded data coming from three pre-amplifiers with same input applied to these pre-amps. After post analysis, i found that there are phase and gain differences among these outputs ( which should be zero in ideal case). I set one preamplifer output as reference and...
I'm reading about the theory behind MRI, specifically from Farr's Physics for Medical Imaging, 2nd Edition, by Allisy-Roberts and Williams.
According to this book, the spins of the free protons in a sample line up, either parallel or antiparallel, with the externally applied magnetic field. In...
Hello, working on a puzzle and I think this may be what I need to do to solve it. I have a long string of characters,752 total with the range 0-9 and a-f. I believe that the data needs to be aligned based off the processor and memory. The Cpu is at 2800MHz and the memory is 1024MB. Is there a...
Hi,
I have a question about steel, for instance, silicon steel used in magnetic cores.
I was wondering about how Iron magnetises: can you align the grains/domains and heat treat it [or anything], so that it responds differently to flux one way then the other direction?
For example, say you...
As the title says, how will installing a larger tire/wheel combination or altering wheel offset change the alignment with respect to caster, camber, and toe?
I know that the parameters are affected, but I cannot verbalize or visualize these changes. Feel free to use big words and jargon.
TIA!
I can't seem to find anything online that talks about this distinction. I understand how when the water gets shallower that part of the wave gets slowed down so the overall alignment parallels with the shore. However, I wouldn't think that would change the actual direction of the wave. I need a...

Just bringing to everybody's attention that there's a very nice alignment of planets in the morning sky. Venus, Jupiter and Mars are within a few degrees of each other, next to the constellation of Leo. In two weeks' time, while they'll spread out a bit by then, the Moon will also swing by.

I picked up a book about the pyramids at Cheops. (Relax, it wasn't a crackpot work.) It said that the pyramid was aligned with the star Polaris, and that Sirus and Orion may be sighted through some of the ventilation shafts.
Now the pyramid is aligned with true north. It the time of the...

I have been using an accelerometer and I have realized that it was sitting at a tilt of 18 degrees in the z direction and rotated at 5 degrees in the x y direction. How should I change my accelerometer readings to account for this?
The spin of an arbitrarily oriented electron precesses in the presence of a magnetic field (see Feyman lectures 10-7). The energy states also split due to magnetic fields (see Feynman lectures 12-4). I am trying to understand how to think about spin precession, spin flipping, and spin...

Hi all,
It is well known that poly(3-hexyl thiophene) and other conductive polymers with alkyl substituents align when deposited on a surface (e.g. by spin coating or drop casting). The common orientations for P3HT on silicon/silicon dioxide are "edge-on" in which the alkyl side-chains point...

What is the mathematical equation or algorithm for alignment of four points in cartesian coordinates (X & Y). Say, we have 4 nominal points (Xn & Yn), and another 4 measured points (Xm & Ym)?. After alignment, what are the new locations of the measured points (Xmn & Ymn)?.

A wall clock on Planet X has two hands that are aligned at midnight and turn in the same direction at uniform rates, one at 4.27×10−2 rad/ s and the other at 1.62×10−2 rad/s . At how many seconds after midnight are these hands first aligned and next aligned?

Hello,
I'm looking for an appropriate rotation representation for the following situation.
I have two (always non-zero) vectors, v1, v2, that may or may not be parallel. The rotation relating the two vectors is obviously non-unique having one degree of freedom, parametrized by p. So my...
If I have two strings of equalities within the same align or alignat environment, and the first one is long enough to need two lines, I would want the result to look like
A+B+C=D=E

I=J rather than A+B+C=D=E
=F=G=H
I=J Is there a way to do this? I suppose it can be done...
BACKGROUND:
I calculated a spin-1/2 ptl. with const magnetic field.
I thought that, as time goes by, the spin should align to the direction of the magnetic field, because the energy of that state is lowest energy.
but, the spin vector(expectation value) just rotates around the direction...

If a magnetised neodymium ball has a definite north and south point, could you slice the ball in two, and weld 2 "north" halves together, to create an entirely north ball? If this is impossible, how about designing a ball made in, say, a 3D printer, then embed it with small magnetised neodymium...
