Astronomy, Astrophysics & Space Science Education ASTRONOMY CALCULATORS, APPLETS, ANIMATIONS & SIMULATIONS ASTROPHYSICS LESSONS, CALCULATORS, APPLETS, ANIMATIONS & SIMULATIONS Examples of Astrophysics Lessons with Calculators, Applets, etc. INTERACTIVE JAVA APPLETS TO AID THE TEACHING OF ASTROPHYSICS - J. Köppen, Observatoire astronomique de strasbourg, France VERY VERY VERY...EXTENSIVE. Astrophysics Lessons with Java Applets "...This is a collection of Java applets written for teaching, creating exercises, allowing self-study and for use as small research tools. They aim to permit an interactive exploration of the behaviour of physical systems..." For more information see Joachim Köppen's Home Page or the Observatoire astronomique de strasbourg Some examples from over "40" Astrophysics Applets include Blended Absorption Line Applet Blended Absorption Line Applet "... considers a line which is situated near another, strong line. One can study how the shape of the line changes if one alters the parameters of the blending line and the opacity and radial velocity of the line of interest..." Interstellar Extinction Applet Interstellar Extinction Applet "... is a small utility that allows the conversion of extinction, optical depth, attenuation for any optical, ultraviolet and infrared wavelength, using the standard interstellar extinction curve..." Chemical Evolution of Galaxies with Inflow of Metal-Poor Gas Applet Flows in a Galaxy - Chemical Evolution of Galaxies with Inflow of Metal-Poor Gas Applet "... computes the evolution of gas, stars, and metals in a one-zone model for the chemical evolution of a galaxy, under the influence of a (user-specified) completely arbitrary inflow of metal-poor gas..." Examples of Astronomy Lessons with Calculators, Applets, etc. ASTRONOMICAL JAVA APPLETS - S.M. Morgan, Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Northern Iowa VERY VERY VERY...EXTENSIVE. Astronomical Javascript, Java Applet Resources "...is set up as a resource for instructors of astronomy at all levels. Items are presented in a variety of formats and levels of complexity, so that instructors at all levels from K-12 to college level could make use of the programs here..." Astronomical Javascript, Java Applet Resources (A.J.J.A.R.) subjects include: "...Lunar Events; Solar Motions; Gravity; Planetary Motion; Astrophysics; Galactic, Extragalactic, and Cosmology: etc..." For more information see Siobahn M. Morgan's Home Page; Department of Earth and Environmental Sciences or the University of Northern Iowa ASTRONOMICAL OBJECTS: VISIBILITY OF - L. Bogan, Department of Physics, Arcadia University, Nova Scotia, Canada VERY EXTENSIVE. For more information see Astronomy Pages or Larry Bogan's Home Page ASTRONOMY TOOLS - CALCULATORS - A.L. Proctor & D.P. Hamilton, Department of Astronomy, College of Computer, Mathematical, and Natural Sciences, University of Maryland VERY VERY EXTENSIVE. Astronomy Calculators Subject Categories include: "...Astronomy for Beginners; Solar System Viewers; Solar System Calculators; Working With Orbits & Orbital Simulations; etc..." For more information see Astronomy Workshop or the Department of Astronomy

DYNAMICAL ASTRONOMY JAVALAB - C. Mihos, Department of Astronomy, College of Arts and Sciences, Case Western Reserve University VERY VERY VERY...EXTENSIVE. Dynamical Astronomy Javalab "...Here you will find a variety of Java applets which explore the motion of planets, stars, and galaxies. Each applet comes with background information on the pertinent astrophysics, a technical description of what's being calculated, and links to more information both on the web and in the popular and scientific literature..." For more information see Chris Mihos' Home Page or the Department of Astronomy Some examples of Astronomy Applets include Galaxy Crash JavaLab Galaxy Crash JavaLab "...allows you to model galaxy collisions on your own computer. With this applet you can study how galaxies collide and merge gravitationally..." Surface of Section JavaLab Surface of Section JavaLab "...explore how stars orbit inside galaxies, using a tool known as a "surface of section" to map out the phase space structure of stellar orbits in different galaxy models..." GALILEO AND EINSTEIN (JAVA APPLETS) - M. Fowler, Department of Physics, University of Virginia Multimedia Physics Course (Text, Images, Applets & Simulations). VERY VERY EXTENSIVE. The Physics Course "...The course will follow the development of ideas approximately in the historical sequence. It will begin by reviewing some of the Greek contributions to math and science, which were essential to both Galileo and Einstein in their work..." For more information see Michael Fowler's Home Page or the Department of Physics Some examples from over "20" Physics Calculators include Group Velocity and Phase Velocity Applet Pythagoras Theorem Applet Lightclock Applet JAVA APPLETS IN ASTRONOMY - W. Fendt, Augsburg, Bundesrepublik Deutschland (Germany) Available in English, French/Français & German/Deutsch. For more information see Walter Fendt's Home Page
