WHAT IT IS: ARTAbrot is a Mandelbrot program that it uses the AT&T DSP3210 in ARTA to perform the intensive Mandelbrot calculations. 2. SOURCE CODE TOO! Complete source code is provided. For those who would like some sample ARTA source code (which is scarce at the time of this release). The DSP3210 source code is in file mbrot.s. All of the host DSP function calls are in brotcode.c. For those of you considering DSP programming, take a look at the mbrot.s DSP source code. This is DSP3210 assembly code, but it is very much like C code -- one of the very nice features of the DSP3210. Release 1.1 11/22/93 Added support for larger windows, resizable windows, and background processing.

Harold Brochmann 604-926-6716. 1-D Chaos Explorer v0.1b 1992 by Matthew Hall Enclosed is a binhexed, self extracting archive containing 1-d Chaos explorer and related files. This latest release fixes a bug in the earlier version which caused the display on black and white monitors to be rather, well, unpleasant. Also is included, by popular (1 vote) demand, a non-fpu version of the program and some additional help. 1-D Chaos Explorer is an application designed to explore the dynamics of functions on the real line. It allows you to type in any function of one variable (and a parameter) and will let you explore such topics as chaos, period doubling, Cantor sets (fractals) and others through a variety of graphs and plots (plain graph, orbital densities, escape times and the ever popular bifurcation plot). Also includes ability to perform Newton's method. This application was designed to give an intuitive feel for dynamics on the real line, and I hope, is a good introduction to chaos for high school level math and up This application will work on any computer. Another version is included to take advantage of computers equipped with a math coprocessor. Will run in limited color on color Macintoshes, includes on-line help, and programming help to let you include your own plug-in (read 'much faster than interpreted') functions. 1-D Chaos Explorer is Shareware. If you keep it, like it, and especially if you learn something from it, please send $5 or $10.

Bergstrom) dberg@ux1.cso.uiuc.edu Subject: CrystMath v1.0 CrystMath is a powerful set of Mathmatica routines that will help you calculate, manipulate, and display crystal structures. These routines include routines for calculating angles and d-spacings in any crystal structure you choose, but even more impressive are the powerful graphics capabilities of these routines that will allow you to create and view unit cells, lattices, facet surfaces, lattice planes, and atom bonds easily and with far more flexibility than typical crystal viewers. This distribution should come with three files: CrystMath.m, Examples, and Instructions. I run Mathmatica v2.2.2 on a PowerBook, but this code has run with Mathmatica v1.2 a Mac IIsi. To my knowledge this code will run on any platform with any version of Mathmatica that's out there. CrystMath.m works like other Mathmatica packages and can be loaded with the "<<" command. It can also be opened directly if you want to see how these routines work and/or change things a bit. The Examples file is a list of all the functions, their descriptions, and examples of each. The Instructions file is meant to suppliment the examples and gives a more detailed description of how to use the more complicated functions. This software is shareware: You can use this package free of charge, but if you find a way to improve the existing code or come up with new functions that are useful, or just if you do something really cool with this software, please send a copy of the code to me so that I can collect all the coolest stuff. The functions here are tools to be extended, not just to let you make pretty pictures like mine. In case there are any lawyers out there, I retain all rights and assume no liability for anything I may do in the course of my life, but in particular, I don't want you making any money on this without giving it all to me, and I don't want you to sue if you miscalculate the density of plutonium with this and go critical.

You can enter crystal structure data inside the program or import them from CIF files. All 230 space groups from the "International Tables for Crystallography" and more than 700 different atomic, covalent and ionic radii are built into the program. The crystal structure can be viewed in four different ways; as unit cells or multiples of it; as a plane with a user defined thickness; by coordination around a selected atom within a user defined ratio; or as a molecule defined by the atom positions. All are done in separate graph windows. The atoms in the drawing may alternatively be viewed as points, circles or spheres. Bonds between atoms can be created and viewed as lines or cylinders. Groups of atoms can alternatively be viewed as polyhedra. Distance, angle and torsion angles between atoms can be measured by selecting different atoms in the drawing. The program requires System 7 or higher, 2.5 MB available memory, 4 MB free hard disk space, and a Macintosh with a 68020 CPU or higher. Accelerated for Power Macintosh.

PPC Native. See for more info and 68k version. Desc: What is Fresnel diffraction? Diffraction is a phenomena arising from the wave nature of light. Fresnel diffraction occurs when a point source radiates light in spherical waves, diffracts by an object, and projects a diffraction pattern instead of a shadow. For example, the diffraction pattern behind any circular object, whether it is a BB or a bowling ball, yields a bright spot (!) in the exact center of where the shadow would be. (See my web site, below.) Why write the Fresnel Diffraction Explorer? The most common type of diffraction taught in schools and colleges is Fraunhofer diffraction (which uses plane waves), partially because the computations to predict its effects are relatively easy (just a Fourier transform). But Fresnel diffraction has traditionally been very difficult to predict. While I was an undergraduate in physics at Harvey Mudd College, I created an algorithm to solve that problem, a problem I later learned was of significant interest in physics. I wrote a paper to be published in _Computers In Physics_ very soon, and this is a program that produces the results. You can download a copy of it (both 68k+FPU and PowerPC versions) and see demonstrations of its output at: The program has a number of built-in apertures and allows you to import any black and white PICT as an aperture. For non-profit, educational, and scientific users, this software is Postcard-ware: send me a postcard of your home town to register (check the about box for where), and that's it. I'm not asking for money; I just want to get an idea of how far this propagates. And, of course, email me any comments or suggestions.

Authored in HyperCard by Cameron Bales, Paul Cant, Robert Hawkes and Stewart Walker, the CD contains 500 screens covering a wide variety of introductory Physics topics for high school or introductory university students. "We've tried to present the information in an easy-to-understand format," said Hawkes, professor of physics at Mount Allison. "And we've been really pleased with the feedback we've gotten from our own students." The CD-ROM also includes a printable version for use as lecture or study notes for those who do not always have ready access to computer hardware. The CD-ROM was funded through a grant from TeleEducation New Brunswick, with the aim of providing the university experience to students unable to attend Mount Allison. Mindful of its market, Mount Allison has kept system requirements to a minimum-a double-speed CD-ROM drive, a 9" colour or greyscale monitor (with a range of 256 colours or greys), and 4 megabytes of RAM under System 7.0.1 or newer. I give permission for this submission to be included on the Info-Mac CD-ROM, and other CD-ROMS - please contact physicsCDinfo@mta.ca with notices of these inclusions.

Gaussian92 to spectrum converts the output file of Gaussian 92 (andprobably other version of Gaussian) into a X-Y type, vibrational spectrum. If you don't know what Gaussian 92 is, then you probably don't need this program! For your information, G92 is a computational chemistry program that computes the theoretical energies and various properties of molecules. Just run G92ToSpec on a TEXT file containing an G92.output file with the vibrational frequencies. A full vibrational spectrum with all the bands will be saved from 1 to 4000 cm-1. G92ToSpec allow you to specify the IR spectrum, the Raman spectrum or all the vibrational modes. The bands can be of the Gaussian or Lorentzian type. The width at half heigth of the bands can be specified. The saved spectrum can be of 4 different formats, single space delimited, 10 spaces delimited, tab delimited or delimited by a coma. These formats should be readable by any graphing program. Jean-Luc Brousseau Grad.

Using force equations leap-frogged for time, this program is amazingly realistic in its display. The program creates two views: a x-y view and a x-z view. These angles show the galaxies from a top perspective and an edge-on perspective. The code for this program is based upon BASIC code presented in the December 1988 issue of Astronomy Magazine. The original BASIC code was created and copyrighted by M.C. Schroeder and Neil F. Comins. This program is not an update to a previously released program called Galaxy Collisions-3D, although both programs were inspired by the same article. Galactic Interaction requires a 68020 or better Mac running System 7.0 or higher. The program also likes to run with the Thread Manager, although it is not required. See the Readme file for hints, tips, and features not apparent just from running the program.

It provides a macintosh interface but otherwise operates in a similar fashion to GLIM but with less features (most of which you probably won't miss). Features of GLMStat are - spreadsheet style data entry - Normal, Poisson, Binomial and Gamma models with appropriate links and specification of convergence and aliasing parameters - Scatter and Residual plots - Output of deviance, parameter estimates, residuals and parameter correlations - Saving of data files complete with all model specifications. - printing of data, graph and results. - Online Help (under the apple menu) and a brief User Manual. - includes example data files for most examples in two of the texts. The programme is shareware with a fee of $AUD30 for individual copies or $AUD150 or $US110 for site licences. ($1AUD is approximately $US0.78). Further details in the "Read Me" file. Unregistered copies are fully functional but will expire at the end of 1997. Changes in this version are - fixed problem with lack of convergence when fitting models having close to zero deviance - fixed problem with 68K version crashing on some (most?) computers (this was fixed in 2.0.1 but this appears to have been lost Ken Beath kjbeath@ozemail.com.au #### BINHEX gpower-211.hqx **** From: (Axel Buchner) buchner@cogpsy.uni-trier.de Subject: gpower 2.1.1 GPOWER performs high-precision statistical power analyses for the most common statistical tests in behavioral research, that is, t-tests, F-tests, and Chi^2-tests. GPOWER computes (a) power values for given sample sizes, effect sizes and alpha levels (post hoc power analyses), (b) sample sizes for given effect sizes, alpha levels, and power values (a priori power analyses), and (c) alpha and beta values for given sample sizes, effect sizes and beta/alpha ratios (compromise power analyses). The program may be used to display graphically the relation between any two of the relevant variables and it offers the opportunity to compute the effect size measures from basic parameters defining the alternative hypothesis. A few bugs have been corrected and the interface has been changed. A "How to use" HyperCard stack is now included to explain some basic features of statistical power analysis and how such analyses are performed using GPower. The program is free. Support is partial. The file has been checked using Disinfectant 3.6.

'GPS for Mac v1.5' is Global Positioning System which is operated on Macintosh with SONY IPS-3000(or IPS-5000) GPS Module. IPS-3000(or IPS-5000) is easy-to-use GPS module and quite cool. It makes output in RS-232C signal about latitute, longitude, speed, height, time and so on. 'GPS for Macintosh v1.5' processes its information and shows it on macintosh display. This program, especially, is designed for PowerBook. (You can run this program desktop machine, also.) IPS-3000(or IPS-5000) is walkman-size and costs 30,000 Yen(=US$370). At this time, IPS-3000 is discountinued, and IPS-5000 is available now. (IPS-5000 is smaller than IPS-3000 and consumes less power than IPS-3000. Except these, they are same and compatible.) I think it is reasonable price. I don't know that this product is available outside Japan.(My sister in Japan bought it for me. I am in Korea and Korean.) For details about IPS-3000(or IPS-5000), see document, 'About IPS-3000 or IPS-5000'. Also, there is 'GPS Interface Circuit(PICT)' file. This PICT file shows interface circuit between IPS-3000(or IPS-5000) and Macintosh. *** ABSOLUTELY, YOU NEED IPS-3000 or IPS-5000 TO USE 'GPS for Mac' *** *** What informations does 'GPS for Mac v1.5' show? 'GPS for Mac v1.5' shows longitude, latitude, UTC time, speed, and its direction in text format. Double click on 'GPS for Mac v1.5' and see what kind of information you can get. 'GPS for Mac v1.5' shows UTC time or local time. It is selected in preference. In local time, you should specify time difference between UTC time and local time in preference dialog. As a example, it is '9' for Japan and Korea. Now, path tracking mode is realized. This function will show you the path you've moved in six different zoom levels. This function does not need scanned map. It helps you remember return path and it is useful when you are travel the area you never visit, with or without map(paper). PICT files in 'Pict' show you how it works. I captured this screen shot when I was driving my car with GPS IPS-5000 and Duo280 in my hometown. *** What informations will 'GPS for Mac v2.0' show? 'GPS for Mac v2.0' will have one more function. That is map tracking. You can see your current position on the map which is scanned by scanners. This function makes 'GPS for Mac v2.0' real GPS in car. Of course, you need to point two or three points in map for evaluations. I am testing 'GPSfor Mac v2.0' with my car. It takes a lot of time and labor. *** How can you register 'GPS for Mac v1.5'? Send me a shareware fee and e-mail. 'GPS for Mac v1.5' has no serial number, but 'GPS for Mac v2.0' will have serial number and some disadvantage to unregistered users. Shareware fee for 'GPS for Mac v1.5' is $20. Shareware fee for 'GPS for Mac v2.0' will be $40. If you register v1.5, you will also get serial number for v2.0 after 'GPS for Mac v2.0' is completed. Shareware fee for Japanese is 2000 Yen and 4000 Yen. If you were a Korean, contact to me by Chollian ID, Vesta.

Jeff Rommereide J.ROMMEREIDE@genie.geis.com #### BINHEX hacking-physics-hc.hqx **** From: Bill Wallace Subject: unorthodox physics via HyperCard 2,1 http://www.harborside.com/ 4 Sep 1995 POB 5684 (Charleston Marina) Charleston, Or,97420 The explicit thesis is that the theory of special relativity is difficult to understand because it is incorrect. The reason it is incorrect is that light (EM) propagates as an energy wave through a medium of aether particles rather than as a ray of photon particles from a source to detection and destruction in a human eye. The dispute may be in difference with word meanings (if force acts along a straight path through curved space-time or along a curved path through linear space) I'll explain in a moment but, first, I apologize if the statement presses any hot buttons. Consider if you really think that emotion and faith ought to be a pillar in the defense of a scientific theory and used to deter scientific inquiry. I am an engineer and a protestant scientist and, thank god, mother earth and father time, I am not an enlightened high priest of the one, true, catholic science. I beg your indulgence as I express gratitude that the statements posted by Martin Luther before the diet of Worms became accepted as a reformation. The attitude of authority in support of scientific faith needs reformation as I post this document before this assembly with faith in science on the internet that ranges from chaos to freedom of expression with test of truth being with the reader and the consensus of free readers. As shareware, the fee is to do what you can to distribute this ebook and to encourage discussion. Whether you are curious, undecided, skeptical, doubtful or opposed, please feel free to so state. The purpose is to open a topic for discussion and not to introduce a new dogma or catechism. Of course, a donation, a research grant or even (gulp) a job offer would be welcome. I can be contacted via e-mail at: freewill@harborside.com or freewillee@aol.com (temporary, I think) or (voice) at 503-888-3929. My difference with special relativity might be semantic but I think it is more profound. For the case of interaction between moving static charges using the inverse square central force law, the classical analysis, as described to me, has been that of a test charge traveling through a field and that the response of the test charge should have been to a force that is the product of the charges divided by the instantaneous separation distance squared times a universal constant. However, placing the test charge in the center of a moving "static" field implies that the force to points in its potential field travels instantaneously. If the test charge were to instantaneously disappear, a point in its field one light millisecond away would not know for another millisecond. In the Newton law that force leads to response or that action equals reaction, the force and response should not be required to be instantaneous or simultaneous when the force requires time to reach the object that is to respond and mutual interaction requires force from each to reach the other. I'm sure some apparent paradoxes might be observed and the mathematical analysis might get ugly. My interpretation of the inverse square law is that it involves mutual interaction between the two charges ( F = k q1/r q2/r ). At any point in space between the charges, the force from each charge is on a sphere centered where each was when the sphere was generated. The point on the path for the force energy between the charges is where the spheres are tangent. At this instant, the path through space, for all the tangent sphere intersections that were or that will be, is not a straight line through space. Perhaps this is the process referred to by Professor Feynman in commenting on retarded fields and if he had had future hindsight he could have pursued the topic farther. Whether space-time is curved or the energy path is curved or whether the mass is increased or the increased path length results in a force that is less effective than expected might just be semantics but should be considered for discussion (i.e., if F=ma or a=F/m then an increase in m or a decrease in F will result in a reduction in a). Perhaps the supporters and the opponents of special relativity are saying the same thing using words having different meanings. There is an analogy in the navy gun-control space-time problem. The target is detected and its range and velocity are determined. The time for a projectile to reach the target is estimated. During this time both the gun and the target will move so an estimate is made for target location at this time and projectile flight time is re-estimated and iteration continues until satisfactory accuracy is expected. The objective of the game is to cause the projectile and the target to be at the same point at the same time. To shine a pulse from a beam of light on a target we must aim at where the target will be when the light gets there and the target will see us as where we were when we created the light pulse. Now consider the complication when a potential force follows a longer curved path that varies with charge paths, with positions and velocities on their paths, with history for the charge paths and with charge responses to the potential forces. I might suggest that the document be read first with the assumption that the writer is a hayseed from the wilderness, like Ben Franklin or Al Michelson (I know, it's a stretch), who is not aware of special relativity as a modification of classical physics; then rereading to observe the distortions to geometry and definitions needed to satisfy special relativity. Summarizing the points made in the document: First: In derivation of the equation describing the doppler principle, the resulting frequency is dependent on absolute velocities of source and reflector as well as the relative velocity between them. However, for a radar with frequency of 10 Ghz and closing velocity of Mach 1 (about 1000 f/s or 0.2 mi/s) the doppler shift is +20 Khz. For Vr/c about 0.000001 and the classical doppler shift of about 2 Vr/c ( 1 + Vr/c + .. ) for + 20 Khz +0.02 hz. I know of no technological technique to measure this difference. Second: For the deflection of a wave from a moving inclined mirror, the reflection is not instantaneous. The plane of the wavefront intersects the plane of the mirror in a line. As the wave progresses, the mirror is moving and the line of intersection moves along the mirror surface. The path of the beam makes a grazing angle with the path through space made by the intersection line of wavefront and mirror (grazing angle is the complement of the incident angle and I used it because the math and the drawing were easier). The paths for a ray and for a point on a wavefront differ after reflection from a moving inclined plane; therefore, the wave-particle duality principle of deBroglie is not correct (i.e., the deflection angle for a wave and for a particle differ when reflected from a moving oblique plane and there can be only one unique path) for this special case (ref: 1937 paper of Dr. Ives in the Journal of the Optical Society of America as he was retiring as president of the society and not under control of censors or peer reviewers). This is the special case for the interferometer used to derive the foundation of special relativity. To account for the phase shift change predicted in traditional analysis of the interferometer, the path used is that of the particle. However, using the point on a wavefront path, the split paths do not reunite for interference but in fact diverge and the interference pattern that does occur is from different incoming rays. For time-lapse pictures of the progressing wavefront through the interferometer the "prediction" is for the null result that was observed. Prediction in hindsight is not as effective as I would desire but the original analysis was not attempted with wave tracing. The result is that there is no phase shift to be predicted for the interference pattern. I don't ask you to believe this without demonstration but to remain skeptical and willing to check it out. The wave theory of propagation does not actually violate the photo-electric effect of Einstein. As the energy wave approaches collision, the changing E & B fields cause an aether particle (photon) to move or whatever it does in response to rate of change of E and transverse B. It could be quantized in energy or as a domain of aether particles (as when material becomes magnetized): i.e., individual particles in domain opposing change in each other as well as the energy field until switched as a group in an avalanche. For example: the field "lines" are made visible as quantized by iron filings. A single grain of the filings becomes a small bar magnet in responding to the B field and alters the field for the next grain. This next grain becomes another bar magnet by induction. For the tiny bar magnets, the unlike poles attract for alignment as a line and the like poles repel for line spacing or quantization. For propagation of waves of energy on the surface of water (aether), the disturbance travels as a point on a wavefront until it strikes rock or sand on the beach (detector atoms). The wave propagates through a fluid medium (aether) on a path guided by rules for wave propagation and it is only appropriate to consider paths for particles at the boundary where molecules of water (photons of aether) strike molecules of rock or sand (detector atoms). The water molecule (aether photon) does not travel the path for a ray from the disturbance to the detector, not the miles or the wave weeks of distance and time. For man the energy wave propagates through the fluid of water; for a water bug the particles of water strike with discrete force. If the surface of a bay were covered by a layer of ping pong balls, a battleship would see a layer of fluid and a dory being rowed would see discrete objects as obstacles. Third: For the relativistic velocity addition formula, the physical meaning is nonsense even though the formula is consistent as it is a hyperbolic trig sum. Finally, Fourth: As an observation while measuring impedance of high frequency antennas ( 3 to 30 Mhz) the impedance appeared to vary with signal strength as well as frequency. In using a microwatt rf signal generator and an AC impedance bridge to measure antenna impedance as an unknown load on the bridge and, thus, the voltage standing wave ratio for the antenna at the selected frequency, the bridge was extremely difficult to balance, unlike for an inductance and capacitance network. As the bridge was adjusted for balance, the signal strength across the antenna apparently caused its impedance to vary. If impedance varies with signal strength, so also does characteristic impedance of space and propagation velocity in space. This impedance variation occurred at microwatt levels at the ambient noise level. When VSWR was computed and when the transmitter was connected at 1000 watts and VSWR measured, the prediction and measurement varied in an unpredictable way across the frequency band. Although this is not proof, I think it justifies additional testing. Again, with the analogy of water waves, for the large wave the restoring force is gravity and for the extremely small wave it is surface tension. As a result the velocity increases and the wave length increases an the wave energy diminishes, a red shift. My "belief" is that large energy EM waves have the E field as a restoring force and the extremely small energy waves have the equivalent of the nuclear force as the restoring force (larger force operating over a smaller distance). In examples of stellar energy used to observe the galactic red shift, a photo time exposure of 40 hrs over a period of several weeks is needed to view the object. I think I am safe in calling this a weak energy source. I must admit that I have no raw data on signal strength from radar reflected from Venus or of light reflected from moons of Jupiter or from asteroids. #### BINHEX hyper-grapher-10-hc.hqx **** Date: Wed, 26 Oct 1994 17:09:36 -0500 From: Bryan Scott Subject: hyper-grapher-10-hc.hqx --========================_12593213==_ Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Dear Sirs: I was going through my hard disk and found this nifty little HyperCard graphic calculator.

It is free for non-commercial purposes. You may not sell it, or incorporate it into a commercial product for re-sale. If you want to license the software for commercial purposes, please contact Octavian Micro Development Inc. What is Linear Interpolation? Linear interpolation is a simple numerical method for calculating a point in a straight line. This can be useful in the world of simulation, where you might require a random number generator with behaviour that does have uniform distribution. You can approximate a distribution firing a uniformly distributed random number at a table of points that describe the observed distribution, and interpolate (between the points) to get meaningful data. What do I need to run LInterpolate? LInterpolate requires Excel 4 or better and a Power Macintosh. It must have a Power Macintosh, since LInterpolate is an accelerated code resource (PowerPC native). It is very fast. #### BINHEX linear-regression-pro-22.hqx **** From: (Gerard Hammond) ghammond@metz.une.edu.au Subject: Linear Regression Pro 2.2 Pleae update your servers with v2.2 best regards Gerard Hammond ghammond@metz.une.edu.au 5 Curtis St Ph 019 46 5959 Armidale NSW 2350 Australia #### BINHEX lintrp-14.hqx **** From: (Andre Lehre) akl1@axe.humboldt.edu Subject: Lintrp 1.4 -- Excel macro for linear interpolation Lintrp 1.4 is an Excel macro for linear interpolation of Y values (such as elevation or streamflow) given a set of X-values (such as distance or time).

It has an easy-to-use graphical interface similar to standard drawing programs. Circuits are built up from standard elements (gates, flip-flops, LEDs, switches, etc.) and can include more complicated modules created by compiling a previous circuit. LogicSim also has a "Signals window" providing an oscilloscope display of the signals at nodes in the circuit. LogicSim is now a discrete-time-event-simulator which makes it more accurate than LogicSim and most shareware simulators which use a fixed delay for all gates. LogicSim runs on a Macintosh LC or better and requires System 7 or greater (with System 7 you must have the Macintosh Drag-And-Drop in your Extensions Folder). This program is PostcardWare. If you like it, you must send me a nice postcard. The shareware PowerPC version will be soon available.

Data sets can be byte, integer, longint, or real and can be as large as memory allows. MacPhase has an extensive collection of processing tools ranging from simple math operators to fourier transforms. You can use simple tools to filter in the frequency domain. There are 3x3 and 5x5 configurable convolution filters and much more. MacPhase can also display your data using raster, contour, 3D wireframe, 3D surface, 3D rendered surface, vector, 3D contour, 3D line, line, and combination plots. There is an easy to use color look up table editor. Use it to put the colors where they best show your data. MacPhase has a Data Tool palette which allows you to draw in the data layer of your data window. MacPhase has also has a Draw Tool palette which draws in an drawing layer of your data window. Use the draw tools to annotate your data with text, simple shapes, placed pictures, color look up table legends, and even sound objects. Just about every function or operation can be called using a pascal-like macro language. Macros are a great way to extend some of the already great features in MacPhase. You can also write external code modules, Add-ons, for MacPhase. These Add-ons can be an excellent way to extend MacPhase's capabilities. Add-ons will be made available to support the QuickCapture and SCION frame grabbers, GPIB interface, serial ports, QuickTime, video digitization (AV-vdig), Photoshop plug-ins, color channels, image restoration, and more. Add-ons are callable from the macro language. Add-ons can be used to add new file formats as well. MacPhase has a large number of supported formats some of which are PICT, TIFF, MatLab, HDF, FITS, binary, text, EPS, Mathematica, Photoshop, polygon files, sound, color tables, and others. MacPhase supports AppleEvents through the DoScript event and several custom events. Use the DoScript event to send macro commands to MacPhase. Use the custom events to pass data between applications.

I apologize in advance for ugly, very nonmac-like interface. This package is distributed under GNU general license, together with source codes. It has been tested on Centris 610, and Mac IIsi. It should be able to work with any Mac's though. It is not PowerPC accelerated, but it still can run on PowerPC. It should be able to take advantage of FPU or 68040 processor, if present, but FPU is not required. It has been tested under Sys 7.5.1, but it should be able to run under any system older then 6.0.X Source codes and project file are for Think C 5.0.4.

Mike #### BINHEX macstim-221.hqx **** From: ddarby@ariel.ucs.unimelb.edu.au Subject: MacStim 2.2.1 MacStim is a Macintosh application which I originally designed for our own stimulus presentation needs at the Beth Israel Hospital in fMRI. It has grown in "power" considerably since then. It will present PICTs, sounds, QuickTime movies or text according to a script which you create using a simple text editor like interface (the Script Editor). The most complicated part of MacStim is the script window's fields which determine how MacStim presents these stimuli, times and responds to user events. The aim of many experiments is to present stimuli, and then get a response from the subject (a button press, or mouse click, voice-activated sound, serial port or NuBus trigger event which I call user or stop events). MacStim will then record a reaction time (from onset of the stimulus) and move on to the next part of the experiment. It is shareware, so if you want it to work without the time limit restriction, then you can follow the instructions provided in the text file accompanying or read the on-line help on how to register (which is done by email or fax after you have organized payment). Currently, the full version price is US$299 (most people have said it's worth it!) which compares very favorably with other software solutions for this sort of thing. If I can give you any more information to assist in your decisions, or have specific needs which would fall within MacStim's broad abilities which you would like me to include, please do not hesitate to contact me.

What can it do? * Ordinary differential equations * Difference equations * Stochastic equations * Fit models to imported data * Reads Stella models and runs them 10-100 times faster! Madonna was developed at the University of California, Berkeley, for teaching and research. It has been tested for 5 years in classroom and laboratories. Originally developed as a way to import Stella equations and run them fast, it evolved into a general-purpose simulation package. It's strength is its simplicity and speed. It is not an all-purpose program like XPPAUT, but for those problems it does handle, you'll be up and running on it much quicker. There are three versions of Madonna: FPU, SANE, and PPC.

Fractals are infinitely complex and colorful graphical objects. This file includes MandelBrowser 2.0, an MS-Word manual, and 43 sample images. MandelBrowser's features include: * Multiple fractal windows, limited only by memory. * Uses thousands or millions of colors. * Palettes can be of any size. Colors are formed by interpolating between colors in the palette. * Files are saved as PICTs. * Reads Fractint par files. * Has 16 different ways to draw the outside of the fractal and 10 ways to draw the interior of the fractal. * Palettes can be imported, saved, and randomized. The version 2.0 changes are: * Added the Memory, Mouse, Info, Palette, and History windows. * Added the Stack Windows, Tile Windows, and Next Window commands. * Added the Show Orbits command. * Added the Windows menu. * MandelBrowser will now ask if it should switch the monitor to thousands or millions of colors if there isn't a monitor at the correct depth. The old depth is restored when the app quits. * The thumb in the fractal's scroll bars is now dynamic (ie the fractal scrolls as the thumb is dragged). * MandelBrowser switches to 64-bit math a little sooner. * The Center Point command now centers correctly. * Line continuations are handled much better in FractInt par files. --jesjones@halcyon.com #### BINHEX mandelnet-131.hqx **** From: (Christoph Pfisterer) chrisp@ardanwen.sax.de Subject: MandelNet 1.3.1 - calculating fractals on a network MandelNet is a package that lets you compute Mandelbrot fractals using the combined computing power of several Macintoshes on a AppleTalk network.

It uses a text window rather than simulating buttons on a hand held calculator. This live scratchpad interface allows you to see and edit your entire calculation. Formulas can be entered directly and different values can be plugged in for easy "what if" calculating. In addition to being a handy little calculator, MathPad can also take on larger problems. Simple plotting allows quick visualization of results. General purpose arrays allow calculations involving vectors, complex numbers, matrix algebra etc. 2D arrays can be displayed as grayscale or color images. Several examples are included showing such things as equation solving, curve fitting, vector calculations and numerical solutions of differential equations. MathPad does not have all the features of high-end commercial programs such as Mathematica but it can handle fairly sophisticated numerical problems with a MUCH smaller memory requirement (190K). MathPad 2.4.4 is an upgrade intended to replace the previously posted version 2.3.5. Existing documents will still work with the new version. Some of the new features: * PowerPC and 68K applications * log axes * plots an array of functions as a family of curves * expanded interface for XFun plug-ins * XFuns for 3D plotting, FFT, slider bar controls, etc. * Bug fixes MathPad 2.4 runs on a Mac with a 68020 or better and system 7.

Designing a rocket with ModRoc is as easy as choosing parts from a catalog and telling the program where they go. As parts are added, ModRoc continuously displays up to date center of gravity, center of pressure, and stability margin so you can see instantly how the rocket is shaping up. ModRoc is intended to be easy enough to use that grade school kids can use it once they grasp the general idea of what makes a rocket stable and learn which parts in the catalog fit together.

Even when another application or process is in the foreground, all mouse clicks are recorded and the user can activate and deactivate MouseTracker at whim. MouseTracker 1.0 was originally designed to enable measurements in certain mechanical physics experiments. The experimenter videotapes the experiment, loads the video sequence onto a Macintosh, and displays it on the screen. The experimenter then activates MouseRecorder and clicks on each point of interest in the experimental system. These click-measurements are made on every frame in the sequence. Thus the experimenter can measure the linear and rotational positions, velocities and accelerations of rotating disks, tumbling projectiles, complex pendulums, and other complicated mechanical systems. #### BINHEX mouse-up-15-hc.hqx **** From: Michael Stockelman Subject: MouseUp, a HC database for mice in biology research This Hypercard stack is designed to keep track of transgenic mice.

Description NeuroSim is a simple neural net simulator. A neural net is formed by a matrix of connected neurons. Every neuron has a state which is described with an integer. Every neuron also has a border value, which equals the number of connections starting from the neuron. When the state of the neuron exceeds the neuron's border value, the neuron lights up and sends an impulse to all the neurons it's connected to. The impulse increases the state of every connected neuron by one. After lighting up the neuron's state returns to zero. NeuroSim allows the user to create new neural nets with specified characteristics and to "play" with the nets by manually lighting up certain neurons (known as receptors). There's also a demo mode...

Through its windows you can see where the stars are tonight, next month, or any other time. You can view up to over 50,000 stars (if you acquire a big enough data file). You can see where the sun, moon, planets, galaxies and other deep space objects are. You can view all the constellations. You can add, edit, and remove stars and constellations if you wish. NightSky 2.2 updates its sky displays every 90 seconds (on a 6100/60) to keep up with the sky outside. If you want to control which part of the sky is displayed, you can move to another part of the sky with several methods, including a mouse-driven zoom facility. Four different map projections are used by NightSky. Do you want to see what the sky looks like from another star? Just activate the "View from Star" feature and click on a star. You can have up to five windows open at a time, each with its own view. If you see too many or too few stars, you can use the "Bright" menu to change that. Turn on the "twilight" feature if you want to see where day and night are. There is also a "magnitude density" feature if you want an alternative way of seeing star light (your Mac must have color to use these special display modes). There is also an "Auto Const's" mode in which NightSky attempts to draw its own pseudo-random constellations. NightSky 2.21 is a "fat" application, which means that it will run on most 680x0-based macintoshes (an FPU or Software FPU is necessary), and is also accelerated for Power Macintosh. http://www.kaweah.com djensen@kaweah.com NightSky 2.21 may be included on the commercially available CD-ROM of the archives. #### TEXT non-linear-least-squares.txt **** From: "Marshall L.

This is a demo version limited to 4 nodes only. The original version is limited by memory available. Linear problems can also be solved more easily since the solution converges after only 2 or 3 iterations, but it is not useful since the usage of this application concentrates on deflections of soft material (large deflection problems). The subject material is at a Ph.D. level where the idea was used in a thesis by a friend of mine and I took it a step further to add visualization to the solution, and the flexibility of building a random problem easily. You can also save your design to an input file. This is a FAT Binary applications which will run on a Mac with 020/FPU or better OR a PPC Mac. The 68k FPU requirement is due to the math intensive operations (matrix solution of a system of equations by iterations). A non-FPU version is available by special request.

It is also a PPC native application which offers great speed improvements for complex problems. -Version 1.3.3 adds a copy from window to the clipboard option, and keeps the animation on the screen until manually reset (long enough to copy). I am asking $15 for the application and the user manual. Please include your e-mail when ordering. Previous users of the program can have the update free by sending me their e-mail address or a floppy and a self-addressed and stamped envelop.

Suchanek, Ph.D. Mac port: Copyright C 1995, all rights reserved, Richard G. Rothwell, Ph.D. What does it do? MacPDB2POV assists in the creation of photorealistic ball and stick images of molecules. MacPDB2POV reads a protein data bank file and uses that to write a Persistence of Vision Ray (POVRay) ray tracer file. A MacMolecule format file or many others can be converted into the pdb format using MacBabel. MacBabel is available on the net. POVRay renders the data in the pov format file to produce photorealistic images of the molecule. POVRay is also available on the net. How is it used? To use this program with the existing example file, double click on MacPDB2POV and type the command "pdb2pov bucky bucky -h -s -c -b -d 0.9" onto the command line. The command can be copied from the document "Bucky commands" and pasted onto the command line. As long as the .pdb file exists in the same folder as MacPDB2POV that file will be read and status information written to the screen. A .pov file will be written to disk. When the program finishes use the File menu to quit. The .pov file may have to be edited to fit the image into its window when you render it. The camera view point distance is probably the easiest thing to change, although there may be better things to alter. This program was ported to the Mac by Richard Rothwell: chergr@lure.latrobe.edu.au But the program originates with: Eric G.

This application was developed for use on a Macintosh using some form of System 7.0. However, it may operate under other versions of the Macintosh Operating System and has been shown to operate under System 6. This software may be used to circumvent the use of lookup tables. However, it was originally written to allow the calculation of probabilities for the F distribution when the degrees of freedom are non-integer values. The calculation of these probabilities for noninteger degrees of freedom may be especially useful to the experimenter who wishes to obtain probability values after applying the Greenhouse-Geisser correction during an analysis of variance. It should be noted that all distributions, except the binomial, will accept and calculate probabilities for distributions using non-integer degrees of freedom. I would like to hear any suggestions for improvement that you may have.

They have one sense, the ability to see the cell directly ahead of them, which can be occupied by either nothing, food, poison, or another bug. Their behavior is determined by looking up what their eye senses in a genetically inherited array of probabilities. They can reproduce either by asexual division, or by conjugation and genetic crossover, and you can watch the bumbling, twirling ancestors give rise to ultra-efficient feeding and searching machines in a dramatic illustration of Chuck D.'s theories. You'll observe many phenomena that closely parallel nature, especially once you bring poison and walls into the picture... Prokaryote is shareware, and the recommeded fee is $10. Viva shareware! Features: -Full-color, blindingly fast display of the "petri dish." -Fully adjustable window size. -Up to 300 bugs can be simulated at a time. (Contact me to break this rule.) -A selection of painting tools that allow you to completely customize your bugs' environment. -Full file opening and saving ability. Simulations can be saved as ultra-tiny files that contain everything Prokaryote needs to know about the bugs and the environment, or alternatively in slightly larger format that contains an exact duplicate of the map you've drawn. -The ability to save the current simulation in text form, and summarize the evolution of the current bugs. -A built-in editor that allows the user to change any aspect of a particular bug, from its color to its energy, to its actual genetic material. -It's majorly fun to play- (ahem... to experiment) with! System Requirements: -System 7.0 or later. -A 68020 or better CPU or any PowerPC CPU. Prokaryote is fat, and runs native on both 68K and PPC machines. -A 640x480 pixel or larger color monitor STRONGLY recommended. Prokaryote will run on a 512x384 monochrome monitor, but will look terrible and may occasionally act funny.

The task was to display the rating of multiple combinations of a table 50 40 30 10 5.00 4.00 3.00 11 4.54 3.63 2.73 12 4.17 3.33 2.5 ... The actual example is the relation of front/rear chain rings of bicycles as a key parameter for the development. The scattered chart display should look like 1 2 3 4 5 * 0 X *0 X *0 X Thus you may see on a glance how well the range is covered. The solution relies on a plain "high resolution" string length calculation and some special field formatting. It requires FileMaker Pro 3.0, but the concept may get used in other releases as well.

Now coming in both, a plain 68000 and an FPU Version...! *** this version should replace all earlier releases that can be found on AMUG's, MacUp's, etc. CD-ROMS! *** What Soon4 shows you: 1. The weekday and date in "long form"... 2. How many days are gone so far and how many are left this year, including automatic leapyear detection... 3. The current location and timezone including automatic DST detection 4. Three different twilights: The astronomical - starts/ends when the sun is 18 deg. below horizon. That's when no more daylight's left at all... The nautical - 12 deg. below horizon. Used for naval purposes, starts when the brightest stars come out... The civil - 6 deg. below horizon. Ends when there just not enough light left for work (traditional, that is :) 4.1 If you're beyond the polar circle (north or south) you're also noticed about the polar night and the midnight sun... 5. Sunrise and -set time... 6. The moonphase with it's exact days, the position of the moon- terminator and a common phrase of the actual phase... 7. Two analog clocks: - Upper clock, which is a 24 hours analog clock. It shows the start/end of daytime/nighttime plus twilight. This gives you a graphical impression of how much day-/night-/twilight hours you have that day... - Lower clock - is a "usual" 12 hours analog clock. It's updated every second and shows you the current time... 8. A graphic of the current moonphase... 9. The buttons: - The "Set" button, prompts the user for location/timezone data. - The "Log" button, prompts the user for a start and end date and writes the data to a textfile. In a window with 6 buttons you can choose, what data you want to be logged to the file. "Everything" or just some selected moon phases (new, 1st qtr, full, 3rd qtr)... - The "Thank You" button, quits the program... Docfiles included. have fun, Xn. #### BINHEX spectrum-analyser-10.hqx **** From: (Jerome Genest) jgenest@gel.ulaval.ca Subject: Spectrum Analyser 1.0 Spectrum Analyser is an application that shows the frequency content of the audio data currently recorded by the sound input device you select. You can choose to analyse any sound input available on your computer. Common ones are the microphone, internal CD and AV connector. It makes use of real-time signal processing algorithms to display the spectral data as the sound is grabbed by the computer. It can be useful to musicians for tuning and viewing the harmonic content of any instrument. Engineers and students who need a Spectrum Analyser in the audio frequencies can also plug a wire terminated audio jack in the microphone input and probe a circuit. Note that because of the important number of mathematical computing required to calculate spectra in real-time, Spectrum Analyser runs only on Power Macintosh computers. #### BINHEX spice-3e2-14.hqx **** Date: Fri, 14 Jul 95 19:48:56 CDT From: larson@putski.mts.com (Brett Larson) Subject: Spice3e2_14.hqx Analog Circuit Simulator Spice3e2_14 is a version of University of California at Berkeley's SPICE3e2 ported to the Macintosh. Circuit netlists can be created with any editor and then read into the simulator. The size of the design is only limited by the amount of memory available. Integrated with the simulator is Berkeley's NUTMEG, a SPICE post-processing program. With this program you can display data in either a textual or graphical form. NUTMEG also allows you to manipulate the analysis output by doing mathematical operations on it.

Pape, dpape@wintermute.ncsa.uiuc.edu Subject: STAGES 1.0 Demo STAGES is a software program developed to aid the pathologist/toxicologist in tracking germ cells through time in the cycle of the seminiferous pithelium. This program has also been developed to serve as an aid in the teaching of "cellular associations" found in the seminiferous epithelium of various species. Experimentally, the program may be used in experiments that incorporate the basic kinetics of spermatogenesis in various species of animals. Given a specific cell type in the spermatogenic cycle, STAGES can predict its position after a specified period, either forward or backward in time. The use of STAGES can reduce the time required to determine the fate of damaged germ cells, or to determine the original target of a toxin for a given effect observed post-treatment. System Requirements ------------------- o STAGES will need System 7.0 or newer. o 2 megabytes of memory or more would be nice, but at least 1 megabyte is needed. o STAGES will work on any type of monitor, but an 8-bit (256 colors or greyscale) or greater display is best. This demo can be included on the CD-ROM version of your archive. Daniel X.

It will also calculate and display sun path diagrams and position tables. SunPosition allows architects and building designers to evaluate many overhang designs in a matter of minutes with much more convenience and accuracy than the conventional sun path diagrams most designers now rely on. SunPosition has more than 50 major cities in its database and new locations can be easily added by the user. Solar, Standard, and Daylight Savings time systems are built in. Multiple shadows at two hour intervals can be displayed for overhangs, as well as shadows cast on the ground plane by a 'gnomon' at one hour intervals. Sun charts can be generated showing sun position in the sky at one hour intervals. Shadow length and sun position data can be generated in tabular form and saved as tab delimited text files for export to spreadsheets and word processors. A 'must have' for any building designer concerned with energy efficiency and comfort. SunPosition is also valuable to anyone who is affected by the changing location of the sun: photographers, farmers, gardeners, solar heating engineers, lighting engineers, amateur astronomers... the list goes on. This demo can be upgraded to a fully functional version by sending $19.95 check or money order to us, and we will communicate the key code to you to enable the city selection function.

Implicit expressions, ones that cannot easily be solved for either x or y, have presented a challenge to visualize. SuperGraph makes that a thing of the past. For example, SuperGraph can graph complicated expressions in two variables like y^2(y-1)-x^2(y^2-1)+2xy^2-x^4=0. And it's only $15 shareware (payable through Kagi Shareware or directly to the author at 90 Maple Drive, Great Neck, NY 11021). SuperGraph differs from Apple's Graphing Calculator in its flexibility and customizability when dealing with implicit expressions (which Graphing Calculator does not directly support) and in its ability to run on 680x0 (non-PowerPC) Macintosh computers. SuperGraph is especially suited to demonstrating various implicit expressions and techniques of sketching them in a classroom situation. SuperGraph requires a Macintosh with a 68020 or higher processor and System 7. More information about SuperGraph is available at . Changes since 1.5: Multiple consecutive equals signs are treated as one equals sign. Fixes two bugs. -- Mike Epstein "Thank you for sending me a copy of epstein@bozosoft.com your book.

It analyzes and displays the internal forces in the members using color intensities to denote force values. The system requirements to run this application are: 32Bit Color QuickDraw (for system 6), and the QuickTime extension (1.5 or higher) to be able to produce movies of a car traveling over the truss. Some of the features implemented cover: * Create an arbitrary truss. * Alter the geometry of an existing truss design interactively by moving the joint locations or by adding or removing truss members, truss supports or truss joints. * Automatic check whether the truss is indeterminate or not. * Apply loads on a truss, and then change their direction interactively. * Produce free body diagrams of the entire truss or for selected pins. * Produce a color (pattern) graphical display of the load distribution in the individual members with the color (pattern) of the members denoting tension or compression. * Implement Method of Sections and Method of Joints to isolate members or nodes. * Create QuickTime movies of a car traveling over the truss. New features in version 5.2 include: * Better implementaion of the console window where the user can scroll and copy from that window thanks to SIOUX library in CodeWarrior™. * Fat binary version. Will run native on either a 68k or a PowerPC machine. This provides a vast performance increase when run on a PowerPC machine. The demo version is fully operational for 4 node trusses, but cannot solve trusses with higher number of joints. I hope you enjoy this demo, and thank you for your support.

If you have a Mac, teach science or have a curiousity about Water Bottle Rockets, read this: Water Rocket Fun simulates the flight of a water bottle rocket. It can be used from 4th grade up to the college level. The user can input bottle type, (even those pump toy rockets), gravity as found on different planets, the fluid to fill the rocket, the atmosphere's density by altitude, drag coefficient, air density, amount of fluid in rocket, bottle pressure, calculation speed and accuracy and additional fins. The program flies the rocket and gives general numbers like max velocity, apogee, max thrust, time to apogee. The user may request height, velocity, force, impulse, kinetic energy, potential energy, graphs versus time or a pressure versus velocity graph. The results can be printed. The application also includes suggested experiments the software can be used for. It now has a altitude calculation section where a user can enter tracking angles and the program calculates and keeps track of the launch and the altitude and drift distance at altitude in a data table. The data can be saved and opened by ClarisWorks v4.04 automatically as a spreadsheet or as a text file by any other program. All the results can be printed. It also includes how to build your own launcher, rocket and more, much more. THE PROGRAM IS FREE!!

I have this old tattered piece of paper a colleague gave me years ago that shows a decision tree for figuring it out. It has faithfully followed me around for years and now I think it is time I commit it to software. The result is this quick and dirty AppleScript applet. It is extremely simple. I don't know the reference for the book that I have the Xerox from, if anyone recognizes it I'd love to give credit where credit is due. If you'd like the simple source for it just send me some e-mail. As always, let me know if you find any bugs / spelling errors / theoretical errors. If you let me know you use it I'll keep you on an email list that gets sent the program automatically whenever it is updated. WhichStat is guiltware. Requires AppleScript. -- flip flip@cgrg.ohio-state.edu #### BINHEX x-functions-23.hqx **** Date: Thu, 09 Mar 1995 10:24:58 -0500 (EST) From: David Eck Subject: xFunctions 2.3 xFunctions 2.3 -- compared to version 2.2, this has just a few minor bug fixes and a few new new features, including a "Clone Function" command and a display function "As Table with Cluster Point" command. This is a BinHex'ed Suffit archive. The version of the program in this archive will work on any Macintosh, including PowerPC Macintoshes. (A version that uses a math coprocessor is also available---at least as I write this---through anonymous FTP to math.hws.edu.) xFunctions is a general-purpose program for playing with mathematical functions. It is not meant for use in scientific analysis or for making presentation-type graphs and charts. It was written primarily to help students learn mathematics. A major goal in writing the program was to make it as easy as possible to use. Interesting features include: New functions can be input as either single formulas, split functions, graphs, or tables. A knife tool can be used to cut out a rectangle on a graph for enlargement. Seven special "utility" operations include: graphing several graphs on one set of axes; animation of a family of functions of the form f(x,k); graphing of derivatives and tangent lines; Riemann sums, with graphical display; graphs of parametrically defined curves; integral curves of vector fields; and three-dimensional plots of functions z = f(x,y). A limited printing facility is provided. Files can be saved containing utility examples and functions that you input. (Several sampel files of examples are included in this archive.) An "Info" menu is available when the program is run to give full information on the program and the seven utilities.

The circuits can contain feedback loops, so that you can build, for example, memory circuits. This is not a serious circuit design program; it is meant as a learning tool that shows the ideal, "logical" behavior of small circuits. Version 1.2 improves on version 1.1 only in that you can print the circuits you build. I am now using this program with an introductory computer science textbook that will be published in July (1995).

Turing Machines are not meant to be built physically. They are "abstract machines" meant to be studied on the theoretical level. The individual steps in a Turing Machine's computations are almost ridiculously simple. Nevertheless, Turing Machines can solve any problem that can be solved by any real computer. The best way to understand Turing Machines--and to convince yourself of their computational power--is to watch them compute. The xTuringMachine program allows you to program Turing Machines and watch as they carry out their programs. It is limited to 20 states and to the symbols i, o, x, y, z, and $. Documentation and sample machines are included. I wrote xTuringMachine, and several other programs, to accompany my introductory computer science book, "The Most Complex Machine: A Survey of Computers and Computing." Information about the book and the programs is available on the World Wide Web at the URL: http://math.hws.edu/TMCM.html This program can be freely distribted for private, non-commercial use. More details on copyright restrictions are included with the program. David J.
