Would you be able to explain the differences to me about the absolute cross section, real CoM cross section, and lab cross section?

I'm currently doing some research at the moment for my professor, and he gave me a list of things to look at. Before he had me calculate the "real center of mass cross section." Now, starting at point 0 for publication, he's having me go through and do some other things. In his list of things to...

I'm a Physics student currently working on some research with my advisor. My advisor doesn't know much about modeling solenoids so I've been tasked with reaching outside for help. I did that, but I can't remember the formula or the guy's name so I'm turning to you guys for help. There is some...

I drew up a quick diagram to show what I mean. The on-axis elements (along the Z-axis which is located along the center of the solenoid) can be calculated via some method. Ampere's law possibly? However, what would I have to do to calculate the values which are not along the Z-axis?

What would be the best method to model a solenoid? I tried writing a program that calculated the off axis elements of the solenoid but the value came out wrong. Any idea?
