Hi everyone, I'm new to the forum. I've read a really interesting post about the Photoelectric effect the other day, and I thought that maybe some cool and discussions can be carried out here.

Cool avatar picture -- what is it?
 
Thank you for the welcome! It is the absorbed dose due to protons in a plane of a tissue equivalent phantom. It is a Monte Carlo simulation of the irradiation, very much like in a protontherapy treatment

Thread 'Just an enthusiast!'

Hello fellow Physics enthusiasts, I am an aeronautical engineering graduate (Bachelor's) who is interested in Physics and Mathematics, and I have been re-learning all the basics. I wanted to join a science forum, especially one dedicated to Physics and maths, to apply these subjects to my engineering studies. I hope to learn a lot through this forum. Thank you for your warm welcome.

Thread 'Introduction'

Hello! I am a recent graduate with a Bachelors of Science with a major in Mathematics and a minor in physics! I initially wanted to pursue advanced study in mathematics but taking some physics classes in my undergrad ignited an interest in physics for me! I am really interested in Particle and Nuclear Physics and hope to pursue a graduate study in said area some time in the future! Nice to meet everyone! I am happy to talk about physics with you all!
