    I Solar flare: Help normalizing the Band function

    I am trying to understand how to normalize a proton energy spectrum from a solar flare. The spectrum is given by the Band Function, and I cite the paper "Spectral Analysis of the September 2017 Solar Energetic Particle Events" by Bruno in 2019, link to paper. The equation number in the paper is...

    Half life from two identical radioactive sources cpm

    Homework Statement " Independent measurements are taken on two identical radioactive samples. On the first radioactive sample, a radiation detection system measures N decays on a radioactive sample during a total period of T. On the second radioactive sample, a radiation detection system...

    Insert data into excel, calculate+retrieve data using Python

    After playing with it some more, I decided win32com is too complicated to bother with. I converted the file to ODS, and I converted my script from VBA to python. Got it running decently but it is ~200x slower running in python and LibreOffice than it was with VBA and Excel! Alas, there's always...

    Insert data into excel, calculate+retrieve data using Python

    Hmmm...Interesting I'll give it a look. I figured out how to write a script in excel VBA for a single case, but I much prefer working with numpy and matplotlib. All of the python excel packages I've looked at will let you update a "static" excel file, but apparently you can't dynamically...

    Insert data into excel, calculate+retrieve data using Python

    Hello, I currently have a Google Sheets document that I want to run some analysis on. The document is very formula- heavy (not just raw data). It takes a set of input numbers and does some computations and gives me an important output number at the bottom of the spreadsheet. These computations...

    Physics Medical physicist thinking of moving to US

    Did you happen to do the residency program at National Radiation Oncology Physics Residency Programme. This one is CAMPEP accredited. Thought it was worth a try to ask since you said you are in Ireland. There is also a CAMPEP accredited masters at NUI Galway. You could potentially do that and...

    CT Scan to editable Solidworks file?

    Hello, I have CT scanned an object at my local hospital, and I want to convert the object to an editable part in SolidWorks. So far, I've used the program 3D Slicer to create a label map of the object and exported it to an .STL format. However, it doesn't seem to be editable at all when I...

    Python Best way to get data from a website that is not obviously tabulated

    How do sites like Mint.com do stuff like this? There are a huge number of banks that they have to pull data from and it is all stored in a different way, and even if they changed one tag in the HTML it would cause the search to fail?

    Python Best way to get data from a website that is not obviously tabulated

    I modified the script to: javascript: for(var i=0; i < dataset.length; i++ ){ var ds = dataset[i]; document.writeln("<br>" + i + ": " + " cname: " + ds.cname + " paid: " + ds.paid + " paidrank: " + ds.paidrank + " cfips: " + ds.cfips + " homeval: " + ds.homeval + " homevalrank: " +...

    Python Best way to get data from a website that is not obviously tabulated

    Hmm, it returns 3143 items, but they all say "undefined,undefined". And it seems to be stuck in an infinite loop.

    Python Best way to get data from a website that is not obviously tabulated

    Hello, I'm trying to download and analyze the data from this link. I've used Python BS4 to read tabulated data before from a website, however this webpage is more complicated than any I have seen before. It's not set up as a table (at least that I can tell using inspect element). Is there a...
