-
3.00 Credits
Motion of a point particle, rotational motion, oscillation, gravitation and central forces, Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formulation. Prerequisite: Physics 117A-118A or Physics 197-198, Math 217, or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Starting from Coulomb's law, the Biot-Savart law, and Faraday's law, the electrical and magnetic fields are defined and applied. Maxwell's equations are derived and their consequences, such as electromagnetic waves and relativity, are explored. Prerequisite: Physics 117A-118A or Physics 197-198, Math 217, or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
The second course in a two-part series covering the classical theory of electricity and magnetism leading to the derivation and application of Maxwell's equation. Topics in electrodynamics including Faraday's law, the displacement current and Maxwell's equations in vacuum and in matter are covered. Electromagnetic waves and radiation, special relativity, and relativistic electrodynamics also are discussed. Prerequisite: Physics 421 or permission of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Lectures and hands-on experience in computational physics combining topics in numerical analysis, algorithms, statistics, visualization, and computer algebra with projects in contemporary areas of physics. Prerequisites: Physics 217 or equivalent and familiarity with a programming language.
-
1.00 - 3.00 Credits
Topics of special interest (e.g., holography, relativity, nuclear power, computer applications in physics, etc.) may be studied under the supervision of a faculty member, variously by lectures, seminars, or individual study or research. Students hoping to arrange such a course must prepare a proposal and secure the instructor's consent to undertake direction of the course from a faculty member.
