Rediscover the Higgs boson at CERN! Higgsy was created to celebrate the 10th anniversary of the discovery of the famous Higgs boson particle at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). The main goal of the game is to search for the Higgs boson decays in a generic high-energy collider experiment. The game introduces the basic concept and the properties of event topologies relevant to the Higgs boson identification at the LHC and invites the player to test their acquired knowledge in a captivating gameplay.

About

Drawing with Math

This app offers vector and pixel art editors with tools for free drawing, shapes, and function plotting. It allows for linear transformations of images using matrices, eigenvalues, and rotations, alongside pixel image compression.

Highlights
  • Vector and pixel art editors
  • Free drawing and shape tools
  • Function plotting (Cartesian, polar, parametric)
  • Linear image transformations (matrix, rotation)
  • Pixel image compression
  • Editable greeting cards

Read full description

Our “Drawing with Math (Vector and Pixel Art)” app combines two main components: * uniquely versatile image editors, * various methods of linear transformations of both user-entered and system images. Image editors are available in vector and pixelated forms. The editors offer such options as: * free drawing, * entry of all standard shapes, * entry of regular Cartesian, polar, or parametric function into image editor. List of several visually appealing functions is provided. The App stores 10 most recent user entries for each type. Vector images can be linearly transformed in a variety of user-defined ways: * 2x2 matrix, * eigenvalues and eigenvectors, * rotation by degree, * reflection across a given vector. Pixelated images can be compressed by segments to user-selected rank. Mathematical context for the above is provided, whenever possible. Explanation of image compression algorithms requires significant understanding of Linear Algebra, and is available in our “Matrix Solver Step by Step” app. Several bonus images with animations and editable greeting cards are also available. Suggestions and any other feedback are welcome! Write to us at graphmath@aol.com.
