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, precession and nutation of a top under gravity, parametric oscillation, relativistic Doppler effect, concepts of entropy, kinematics of wave packets, and boundary value problems and associated special functions as orthonormal bases. Recent topics such as the Lagrange point of the James Webb Space Telescope, a muon detector in relation to Cherenkov's radiation, and information entropy and H-function are also discussed and analyzed. Additional interdisciplinary topics, such as self-avoiding random walks for polymer length and population dynamics, are also described.This book will allow readers to reproduce and replicate the data and experiments often found in physics textbooks, with a stronger foundation of knowledge. While investigating these subjects, readers will follow a step-by-step introduction to computational algorithms for solving differential equations for which analytical solutions are often challenging to find. For computational analysis, features of Microsoft Excel® including AutoFill, Iterative Calculation, and Visual Basic for Applications are useful to conduct hands-on projects. For the visualization of computed outcomes, the Chart output feature can be readily used. There are several first-time attempts on various topics introduced in this book such as 3D-like graphics using Euler's angle and the behavior of wave functions of harmonic oscillators and hydrogen atoms near the true eigenvalues.…

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to Rarewaves.com UK, Unit 144 The Lightbox, 111 Power Road, W4 5PY, London, London, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
