Using Word 2007’s new equation editor    Open a new equation by typing   ALT =   You should see something like this:        You can now insert symbols using the Equation toolbar that appears.  Word now also implements a much more convenient way of typing equations.   To try this, in the box that appeared literally type the following   (except for space which means ‘hit the spacebar’)  \alpha=2\kappa space space \omega/c space  The result should look like this:      2   Another example using a ‘charater modifier’ :     S\vec space space = 1/\mu_0 space space S\vec space space \times space B\vec space space     The result should look like this:            Note that the \vec  is a modifier: you can use it to modify any previously typed character  Another example: sub‐ and superscripts.  Type the following, and look at the screen as you do this to see the equation appear  \chi(\omega)=Ne^2/(m_e space \epsilon_0  space  ) space  \cdot  space  1/(\omega_0^2‐\omega^2‐i\Gamma\omega) space  The result should look like this:        Note that the brackets ‘(‘ and ‘)’ can serve to make sure that a group of characters stays together (as the denominator in this example)  You can still edit this by clicking in the equation, using cursor keys, the ‘del’ button, normal cut and paste, etc. , and typing new commands  A final example involving integration and integration limits:     n(\omega)=c/\pi space space \int_0^\infty space space \alpha(\omega’)/(\omega’^2‐\omega^2) space d\omega’   The result should look like this:      A list of the available commands and modifiers is given below.     Operators and common symbols  To get Type × \cdot or \bullet \sqrt \cbrt \qdrt \Im \Re \nabla \partial \emptyset \inc \infty \hbar   Arrows  To get Type \leftrightarrow \Leftrightarrow \rightarrow \Rightarrow \to <- -> Symbol modifiers  To get Type \vec \tvec ^ \hat \overbar \bar \hvec \dot ̈ \ddot ̈ \ddot ~ \tilde   Comparison, equation, etc.  To get Type \cong \approx \propto \sim \simeq \equiv \ne or \neq \ge or \geq or >= \le or \leq or <= \ll \gg \mp or -+ \pm or +-   Integral and summations etc  To get Type \coint \iiint \iint \int \oiiint \oiint \oint \prod \sum   Brackets  To get Type \begin \bra \end \ket \lbrace \lbrack \langle \rangle \rbrace \rbrack   Tricks:   CTRL‐^ a gives â  CTRL‐:  a gives ä  CTRL‐~ a gives ã  CTRL ‐` a gives à  CTRL –‘ a gives á  a^2 (space)   gives a2  a_2 (space)   gives a2    Using modifiers:   a\vec (space)   gives a  \quadratic gives   √     Possible autocorrect entries:   (user definable)     \E=   10^  \del = ∂   \cross = ×   \prop =           \Kappa \ket \lambda \Lambda \langle \lbrace \lbrack \lceil \ldivide \ldots \le \leftarrow \Leftarrow \leftharpoondo wn \leftharpoonup \leftrightarrow \Leftrightarrow \leq \lfloor \ll \mapsto \matrix \mid \models \mp \mu \Mu \nabla \naryand \ne \nearrow \neq \ni \norm \nu \Nu \nwarrow \o \O \odot \oiiint \oiint \oint \omega \Omega \ominus \open \oplus \otimes \over \overbar \overbrace \overparen \parallel \partial \phantom \phi \Phi \pi \Pi \pm \pppprime \ppprime \pprime \prec \preceq \prime \prod \propto \psi \Psi \qdrt \quadratic \rangle \ratio \rbrace \rbrack \rceil \rddots \Re \rect \rfloor \rho \Rho \rightarrow \Rightarrow \rightharpoond own \rightharpoonu p \sdivide \searrow \setminus \sigma \Sigma \sim \simeq \slashedfrac \smash \spadesuit \sqcap \sqcup \sqrt \sqsubseteq \sqsuperseteq \star \subset \subseteq \succ \succeq \sum \superset \superseteq \swarrow \tau \Tau \theta \Theta \times \to \top \tvec \ubar \Ubar \underbar \underbrace \underparen \uparrow \Uparrow \updownarrow \Updownarrow \uplus \upsilon \Upsilon \varepsilon \varphi \varpi \varrho \varsigma \vartheta \vbar \vdash \vdots \vec \vee \vert \Vert \vphantom \wedge \wp \wr \xi \Xi \zeta \Zeta (space with zero width) \zwsp -+ +- <- <= -> >=
