Extractions: Welcome Welcome to the Clusters of Wesleyan Unversity! The Physics Department at Wesleyan University in Middletown, Connecticut, operates two Beowulf type clusters: A 50 node Resarch cluster (nodes are 500 MHz Pentium III class) and an approximately 40 node Teaching cluster (nodes are 486/Pentium class). Both clusters run Linux The Research cluster is a joint project with the Chemistry and Astronomy Departments. There are currently three users of the Research cluster. History The cluster project at Wesleyan University was initiated by professor Reinhold Blumel and physics undergraduate Vasilios Hoffman in the spring of 1999. Together they collected a number of retired computers from the Wesleyan University campus and build the first working cluster during the summer of 1999. This project served as a proof of concept. The cluster of retired computers is still operational, and has indeed grown in size. It now consists of around 40 nodes and is used for teaching purposes by professor Reinhold Blumel. The Reseach cluster was assembled during October and November of 1999, starting with 20 Pentium III machines. Soon after the first 20 machines were up and running a further 20 were added. At around the same time the first 500MHz AMD Athlon machine was brought in and it was found to be superior to the Pentium III on relevant codes. Just before Christmas of 1999, 10 Athlon machines were added to the cluster. For this addition a Hewlet Packard HP4000M switch was acquired and the server was upgraded to hold 60 GByte of RAID 5 disk storage. The Research cluster has run stable with 50 operational nodes since the beginning of 2000.

Extractions: This Center was formed in 1989 with funding from the National Science Foundation , until funding expired in 1999. While in existence, it provided a national resource for the Theoretical Atomic, Molecular, and Optical (AMO) Physics Community, through the mechanisms listed below. This page is being maintained at a minimal level, nevertheless, because of possible continuing interest in some of the online talks that can be accessed below. Nevertheless, it should be noted that we are no longer sponsoring workshops, and the Condon Postdoctoral Fellowship is no longer being awarded. CTAMOP sponsored workshops in critical areas of Theoretical AMO Physics. These workshops were intended to focus on current problem areas in the field and to enhance the theoretical study of Experimental AMO Physics problems of current interest. CTAMOP funds the research of a faculty member in the Physics Department at the University of Colorado-Boulder , in the general area of Theoretical AMO Physics.

Site Map RMC is hosting the , 26 - 31 May, 2003. he mission of the Physics Department is to foster intellectual development and creativity in Officers and members of the Canadian Forces. Within the four pillars of RMC and within the Canadian Forces Military College, the fundamental concepts of the physical universe and the scientific method of problem solving and symbolic analysis are taught at the undergraduate and graduate levels in a spectrum of activities in the discipline. Research in Physics is actively carried out in support of the undergraduate and graduate programmes as well as in support of the Canadian Forces through Military Directorates and Defence Research Establishments. One of the main tasks of the Physics department is to support programmes inside the Science Division, namely Honours Science, Space Science and Science. These programmes are relevant to the Canadian Forces in developing a group of officers who have developed strong analytical skills, a strong ability to reason in a physical environment, view abstract concepts as tools to be applied to concrete problems, and have developed an appreciation of the power of problem solving based on sound fundamental principles. A wide range of courses are offered in these programmes to facilitate the officer's development of these abilities, to foster deeper study of areas that may be inherently interesting to the officer personally and to provide a platform from which the officer can intellectually excel in their chosen MOC.

Extractions: Photo Gallery Silicon Zoo Pharmaceuticals Chip Shots ... Movie Gallery Light is a complex phenomenon that is classically explained with a simple model based on rays and wavefronts. The Molecular Expressions Microscopy Primer explores many of the aspects of visible light starting with an introduction to electromagnetic radiation and continuing through to human vision and the perception of color. Each section outlined below is an independent treatise on a limited aspect of light and color. We hope you enjoy your visit and find the answers to your questions. Electromagnetic Radiation - Visible light is a complex phenomenon that is classically explained with a simple model based on propagating rays and wavefronts, a concept first proposed in the late 1600s by Dutch physicist Christiaan Huygens. Electromagnetic radiation, the larger family of wave-like phenomena to which visible light belongs (also known as radiant energy ), is the primary vehicle transporting energy through the vast reaches of the universe. The mechanisms by which visible light is emitted or absorbed by substances, and how it predictably reacts under varying conditions as it travels through space and the atmosphere, form the basis of the existence of color in our universe.
