NIST has released the Digital Library of Mathematical Functions (DLMF) and its printed companion, the NIST Handbook of Mathematical Functions, the much-anticipated successors to the agency's most ...

Mathematical methods and special functions have long served as the backbone of modern theoretical physics and applied mathematics. These tools enable researchers to solve complex differential ...

Mathematics is one of the oldest disciplines of study. For all its antiquity, however, it is a modern, rapidly growing field. Only 70 years ago, mathematics might have been said to consist of algebra, ...

The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has released a five-chapter preview of the highly anticipated online Digital Library of Mathematical The National Institute of Standards and ...

Problem Type 1 focuses on identifying whether a given function is even, odd, or neither. This type of problem typically ...

The Handbook of Mathematical Functions by Milton Abramovich and Irene Stegun is the one book I would wish to have on a desert island. Unlike a novel, it withstands infinities of rereadings. Its ...

Most engineering labs have digital oscilloscopes, but many engineers don’t fully explore their features. Among the more interesting features of a digital oscilloscope is its math channel, which can ...

A decade ago astrophysicists at the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), operated by the California Institute of Technology and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, ...
