== What is the production process for your images? ==

I'm interested in the image work you've done.
However, neither in your site nor here does it explain how you go about making them.
Are they all custom programs?

:Click the image. Click "Details" in the bottom-right. If you do it right you should get to a page like this: . You'll find details and (when applicable) source code. If you have trouble finding the image details pages, or if you still have questions after that, you're welcome to ask. :-) --] (]) 19:40, 19 November 2020 (UTC)

== Quantum Harmonic Oscillator Animation. ==

Hello.
Thank you for your efforts to visualize hard to grasp concepts. It is appreciated (By many I am sure). I have a quick question. I have to admit I am not a programmer. But I am involved in a theoretical research where I find myself in need of wave form visualization tools, Is there perhaps a program you might suggest? or should I just bite the bullet and go back to school (for the third time lol) I am particularly interested in the harmonic oscillation wave forms animations. I am attempting to map those in three dimensions. Is it possible?

Thank you

:You can click any image on my ], and click "more details", and you'll get to a page like and I always put the source code (or how I made it) at the bottom. You'll see that I made that particular image with Mathematica. Later on you'll see that I mostly switched to using Python to make images, and for the animations I would make a bunch of images programmatically using Python and then call imagemagick to stitch them together into an animated gif. Maybe there are better methods, I dunno. I don't have any special training, just general "ability to write code". --] (]) 16:47, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

== Benford's Law log graphs ==

Hi. I think there is a problem with the graph you made to illustrate Benford's law:

]

<blockquote>A broad probability distribution on a log scale. <b>The total area in blue and red are the relative probabilities</b> that the first digit of a number drawn from this distribution starts with 8 and 1, respectively.</blockquote>

I don't think the part in bold holds. The x-axis is log, so it's a mistake to take areas at face value. Don't you think? ] (]) 12:10, 30 December 2024 (UTC)

Image fix or dataset share

We probably need to fix an image on the page for Bloch wave / bloch theorem. See last comment ], can you please check ? Then can you either fix the image or share the dataset (and imagine some matlab stuff) to rebuild the correct image ? comment added by User:flyredeagle

"Polar vector" listed at Redirects for discussion

An editor has identified a potential problem with the redirect Polar vector and has thus listed it for discussion. This discussion will occur at Misplaced Pages:Redirects for discussion/Log/2022 July 3#Polar vector until a consensus is reached, and anyone, including you, is welcome to contribute to the discussion.

How to Cite Your Shockley Queisser Curve

Hello, I want to use your SQ curve as seen in this link in my publication and I want to cite you. How can I do that? For the time being, I will mention your website, the Misplaced Pages link, and your name, is that correct? The citation will appear as: Byrnes S. Shockley Queisser Full Curve . Misplaced Pages. ; Available from: https://sjbyrnes.com/misc.html. Please tell me if you want it to appear differently. AmrShalaby92 (talk) 16:32, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

It's ultimately your call, but I would recommend linking to either https://en.wikipedia.org/File:ShockleyQueisserFullCurve.svg or https://github.com/sbyrnes321/SolarCellEfficiencyLimits/blob/master/sq.ipynb , rather than to sjbyrnes.com which is not a good archival link because I reorganize my site now and then, and also that page doesn't directly have that curve anyway. --Steve (talk) 16:39, 18 January 2024 (UTC)
Thank you for the prompt response.
Okay, I will use both the Misplaced Pages and the Github links. AmrShalaby92 (talk) 18:13, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

Benford's Law log graphs

Hi. I think there is a problem with the graph you made to illustrate Benford's law:

BenfordBroad

A broad probability distribution on a log scale. The total area in blue and red are the relative probabilities that the first digit of a number drawn from this distribution starts with 8 and 1, respectively.

I don't think the part in bold holds. The x-axis is log, so it's a mistake to take areas at face value. Don't you think? André Neves (talk) 12:10, 30 December 2024 (UTC)
