ITT: /sci/ graphicsI'm fascinated by scientific charts, infographics, flash cards and interactive scientific tools. Is there something like that in your field that you always come back to? Any online tool you particularly like?
>>16811987What are the background groups? Like I see the quarks, the first row of the leptons and the photon put together.
>>16811996It shows the interactions which take place between the particles. The quarks and the first row of leptons are all electrically charged, so they interact electromagnetically by exchanging photons.
Images make you feel understood. They don't make you understand. It's a gatekeeping mechanism, there to keep you from digging deeper. If you don't understand the underlying mathematical principles of what you're looking at, you can't reconstruct that algorithm or whatever just by looking at an image.
Here are some footnotes
>>16812040Over-engineered. Why does God need to show off?
>>16812040Lovely.
>>16811978Hertzsprung–Russell diagram. It's not my field, but it appears in introductory astronomy classes. It’s a scatter plot that compares a star’s luminosity to its temperature. Most stars fall along a diagonal band known as the main sequence.
>>16812858Nice
>>16812040Carlos!
Not an inforgraphic but a program to calculate properties of synthetic oligonucleotides. We used one at work, not this one though. www.oligowizard.com

>>16811987pretty sure got this here too
