A Hermite spline is a type of piecewise-defined curve that is particularly useful in computer graphics and animation for smoothly interpolating between two or more points. The defining characteristic of Hermite splines is that they are defined by their endpoints and associated tangents (or derivatives) at these endpoints. This makes them versatile for creating smooth curves that pass through specified points with controlled slopes.
GÉANT is a high-speed research and education network that connects national research and education networks (NRENs) across Europe and beyond. It facilitates collaboration and data transfer among researchers, institutions, and organizations in the academic sector, providing a backbone for advanced internet services and applications. GÉANT supports a range of activities, including high-capacity data transfers, collaboration on scientific projects, and the deployment of innovative technologies.
An astronomical transit refers to the event when one celestial body passes in front of another, as observed from a particular vantage point, typically from Earth. This phenomenon can occur among various celestial objects, such as planets, moons, or even stars. The most common types of transits are: 1. **Planetary Transit**: This occurs when a planet passes directly between a star and an observer, causing a temporary dimming of the star's light.
AMSRefs is a reference management tool developed by the American Mathematical Society (AMS) for use in mathematical writing. It helps authors manage citations and formatting in their documents, particularly those written in LaTeX. AMSRefs provides a way to create bibliographies and ensures that references are formatted according to the AMS style guidelines. The tool simplifies the process of citing mathematical literature by allowing users to generate references in various formats, making it easier to prepare manuscripts for submission to journals or for inclusion in personal projects.
The weird one, not directly coded in the genetic code.
Where derivation == "intuitive routes", since a "law of physics" cannot be derived, only observed right or wrong.
TODO also comment on why are complex numbers used in the Schrodinger equation?.
Some approaches:
- en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Schr%C3%B6dinger_equation&oldid=964460597#Derivation: holy crap, this just goes all in into a Lie group approach, nice
- Richard Feynman's derivation of the Schrodinger equation:
- physics.stackexchange.com/questions/263990/feynmans-derivation-of-the-schrödinger-equation
- www.youtube.com/watch?v=xQ1d0M19LsM "Class Y. Feynman's Derivation of the Schrödinger Equation" by doctorphys (2020)

Show up in the solution of the quantum harmonic oscillator after separation of variables leading into the time-independent Schrödinger equation, much like solving partial differential equations with the Fourier series.
I.e.: they are both:
- solutions to the time-independent Schrödinger equation for the quantum harmonic oscillator
- a complete basis of that space
In the case of the Schrödinger equation solution for the hydrogen atom, each orbital is one eigenvector of the solution.
Remember from time-independent Schrödinger equation that the final solution is just the weighted sum of the eigenvector decomposition of the initial state, analogously to solving partial differential equations with the Fourier series.
This is the table that you should have in mind to visualize them: en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Atomic_orbital&oldid=1022865014#Orbitals_table
Pinned article: Introduction to the OurBigBook Project
Welcome to the OurBigBook Project! Our goal is to create the perfect publishing platform for STEM subjects, and get university-level students to write the best free STEM tutorials ever.
Everyone is welcome to create an account and play with the site: ourbigbook.com/go/register. We belive that students themselves can write amazing tutorials, but teachers are welcome too. You can write about anything you want, it doesn't have to be STEM or even educational. Silly test content is very welcome and you won't be penalized in any way. Just keep it legal!
Intro to OurBigBook
. Source. We have two killer features:
- topics: topics group articles by different users with the same title, e.g. here is the topic for the "Fundamental Theorem of Calculus" ourbigbook.com/go/topic/fundamental-theorem-of-calculusArticles of different users are sorted by upvote within each article page. This feature is a bit like:
- a Wikipedia where each user can have their own version of each article
- a Q&A website like Stack Overflow, where multiple people can give their views on a given topic, and the best ones are sorted by upvote. Except you don't need to wait for someone to ask first, and any topic goes, no matter how narrow or broad
This feature makes it possible for readers to find better explanations of any topic created by other writers. And it allows writers to create an explanation in a place that readers might actually find it.

- to OurBigBook.com to get awesome multi-user features like topics and likes
- as HTML files to a static website, which you can host yourself for free on many external providers like GitHub Pages, and remain in full control
