Doing Science
There are many tools available that make our jobs as scientists easier. Here is a collection of software, analysis techniques, and more, that you may find useful.
- Linux is a free and open source operating system that is very common in academic and research settings.
- LaTeX is THE standard for typesetting technical papers. Once you learn how to use it, you will never want to write a paper in Word again.
- Gnuplot is a simple, yet powerful, command-line plotting program. You can use it to quickly plot data during analysis, or to create publication quality figures.
- Data Analysis: this page contains various information related to analyzing data, including error analysis.
Student/Class Projects
- The Phys 100, Introduction to Engineering Science, class has been launching high altitude weather balloons as a class project since Fall of 2011. See their project page here.
