Can anyone recomment any good linux software for produce "physics type" diagrams that would be of acceptable quality for putting into reports? When I say "physics type", I mean we're basically talking about straight and curved lines, vectors (arrows), angles and so on... of course I want to be...

I'm looking for some software I can use to draw reasonable technical diagrams- the sort of diagrams you'd find in online lecture notes, or in maths/engineering textbooks, i.e. simple shapes, arrows, curves etc. It's hard to describe what I mean, hence why I've came after nothing on Google...

Sorry if this appears a basic question, but could you pls advise me is it possible to have a two identical vertexes but with different strength coupling? I have some toy Lagrangian and when I calculate Feynman rules I get for one vertex following expression: (M1+M2)*(combination of...

Hi, I have a colour-colour (that is, V-R against B-V) diagram of a young open cluster, and I was wondering if anyone has any suggestions on any information that can be gleaned from such a diagram? I have searched the internet and these forums to no real avail. There is a clear linear line...

Hello my friends! I'm trying to learn the meaning of young diagrams from Christoph Lüdelins physics751 (google it :) but I can't figure out what is happening in eqn 4.14. I understand why 4.13 are the possible p-cycles but how does eqn 4.14 apply to this S_5 example? (Sorry that I could not...

Can a vertex of a Feynman diagram have more than three particles going in or out from it? Assuming all other conservation laws are obeyed, of course. I haven't seen this being explicitly stated but all the Feynman vertices I have seen have three arms attached. Thank you.

PV diagrams for heat engines are "legitimate"? Hello forum Since my student days i was wondering about how is it possible to represent the cycle of the gas in a heat engine (e.g. otto cycle) in a PV or whatever diagram when it is obvious that the gas is not in equilibrium during the process...

Figured it out.

Folks, I was checking to see was it possible to determine the bending moment diagram from the shear force diagram. Seemingly one can do it for simply supported beams but if we consider a rigidly supported beam on either end its not possible to derive the bending moment diagram from the shear...

HI every one,i m confused between three line,single line and ladder circuit diagrams.Plz tell brief discription about them.

Homework Statement This would be really difficult to type, so I've attached the given problem and my work. I think it is legible for the most part, but let me know if you have problems reading something. The Attempt at a Solution My shear diagram worked nicely. I've run into a problem...

I've got a few diagrams (on the twin paradox), that I'd like to repost occasionally. It seems that if I just post a link, people are less likely to look at them. PF, however, complains that I've already uploaded the file. I can tweak it a bit, and re-upload it, but that seems anti-social...

Where can one find a general and detailed exposition of Penrose diagrams? What I have seen so far, in the books, are relatively brief general comments and a couple of specific examples. Usually Minkowski and Schwarzschild metrics, sometimes one or two more.

I passed my statics course and am currently taking material stength course. The thing that has been on my head is the fact that, although I know how to do shear and bending moment diagrams... I do not know how to READ them. In other words, the diagrams don't mean anything to me. For...

I'm reading QED. At first I thought I understood Feynman diagrams, but due to ones like these I'm not so sure anymore. In either of these diagrams, the photon "curves" around in space time. Why would it travel in anything BUT a straight line if nothing is influencing it? I liked to picture these...

Hey there, this isn't a homework / coursework question so I didn't think it should be posted in that section. I can't seem to find a source which explicitly tells you how to determine which bosons are used in reactions. I understand how to work out if a reaction is legal or not by using charge...
