Java simulations covering some of the new topics in the CfE Higher/Advanced Higher Physics curriculum.
Simulation topics :
- Special relativity : time dilation (digital clocks, analogue clocks, photon clocks)
- Particle acceleration : a cyclotron
- Doppler effect : Spectra from exoplanets
The simulations were written by Craig Roy using EJsS as part of an undergraduate summer project (Craig’s project report).
To run the simulations you will need to have a current version of Java installed.
These simulations are open source so the EJsS source files can be modified and edited by anyone who wishes to do so.
This is work in progress and feedback is welcome – comments and suggestions to g.r.m.robb-at-strath.ac.uk .
