    Calculating Uncertainty, involving a logarithmic quantity

    Essentially I'm asking if the uncertainty in μ = -5 log10 (d/10) is given by Δμ = 5 * ( Δd / d*ln(10) ) 1. The problem, all variables and given/known data I am to calculate the uncertainty in absolute magnitude (M), which is calculated using an equation involving logs. The equation...

    Quantifying an Off-axis Neutrinos (probability and intensity)

    Quantifying an "Off-axis" Neutrinos (probability and intensity) Considering the modelling of a high energy proton beam neutrino experiment. I have questions concerning the scattering of neutrinos from the axis of the proton beam. I understand that a muon beam (derived from a proton beam)...

    How does the following simplify?

    sure, I don't trust operators so forgive me but I have to ask if I can presume that the order of working through such an example might then follows something like this... k(r) = r^{2} H(r) = \frac{d}{dr} ( k(r) g(r) ) ------> using the product rule => \frac{d}{dr} ( F(r) H(r) ) ------>...

    How does the following simplify?

    1. The problem statement ( F(r) \frac{d}{dr} ( r^{2} \frac{d}{dr} ) ) g(r) 2. The attempt at a solution Does it just melt down to: ( F(r) r^{2} g(r) ) \frac{d^{2}}{dr^{2}}
