In Mathematical Methods for Physics using Microsoft EXCEL, readers will investigate topics from classical to quantum mechanics, which are often omitted from the course work. Some of these topics include rocket propulsion, Rutherford scattering, and boundary value problems and associated special functions as orthonormal bases

This book ¿offers step-by-step descriptions of various random systems and explores the world of computer simulations. In addition, this book offers a working introduction to those who want to learn how to create and run Monte Carlo simulations. Monte Carlo simulation has been a powerful computational tool for physics models, and when combined with the programming language Excel, this book is a valuable resource for readers who wish to acquire knowledge that can be applied to more complex systems. Visualization of the simulation results via the Visual Basic built in Microsoft EXCEL is presented as the first step towards the subject. Prior experience with the Excel add-in VBA is kept to a minimum. In addition, a chapter on quantum optimization simulation utilizing Python is added to explore the quantum computation. Readers will gain a fundamental knowledge and techniques of simulation physics, which can be extended to STEM projects and other research projects.

Covers essential Microsoft EXCEL (R)'s computational skills while analysing introductory physics projects. Topics of numerical analysis include multiple graphs on the same sheet, calculation of descriptive statistical parameters, a 3-point interpolation, and the Euler and the Runge-Kutter methods to solve equations of motion.

Demonstrates Microsoft EXCEL-based Fourier transform of selected physics examples. Spectral density of the auto-regression process is also described in relation to Fourier transform. Readers can also acquire and analyze their own data following the step-by-step procedure explained in the book.
