Analyzes data from the Cavendish experiment using curve fitting. The Gravitational Constant is estimated.

  Eigenenergies Through Matrix Diagonalization

harmonic oscillator

The eigenenergies of a system are found by discretizing the Schrödinger equation and finding the eigenvalues of the resulting matrix.
