-
3.00 Credits
Fundamental physical properties of the solid state of matter. Prerequisite: PHY 460.
-
3.00 Credits
An investigation of the physical phenomena explained since 1900 by the introduction of the discreteness of nature and the wave-particle duality, leading to the development of wave mechanics. Topics include Planck radiation, photoelectric and Compton effects, pair production and annihilation, the nuclear atom and Bohr theory, the deBroglie hypothesis, the Schroedinger equation and applications to atomic physics. Prerequisites: PHY 460 or 530.
-
3.00 Credits
Continuation of PHY 580 including angular momentum theory, perturbation theory, L-S coupling, Zeeman effects, nuclear properties, reactions and structures, particle accelerators and elementary particle physics. Prerequisite: PHY 580.
-
3.00 Credits
Fresnel diffraction, polarization, Maxwell's equations, laser theory and application, holography, spatial filtering and applications. Prerequisites: PHY 350 and 460.
-
3.00 Credits
Applications of mathematics to physical and engineering problems, curvilinear coordinates, analytic functions, transform theory, convolutions, Fourier series. Prerequisites: MAT 411, PHY 330 or 530 or consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
Solutions of partial differential equations, special functions, Green's function. Prerequisite: PHY 590 or consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
An applied course for advanced students in physics and engineering. The problems will be planned on an individual basis with topics including Monte Carlo and molecular dynamics techniques, fluidized-bed and numerical fluid dynamics, surface physics, cloud and aerosol physics, crystal growth and analog modeling of experiments. Students will be required to design, implement and test appropriate strategies for the solution of the chosen problem using their knowledge and understanding of basic physics and engineering principles. Prerequisite: CSC 420 or MAT 442 or consent of instructor.
-
3.00 Credits
A continuation of PHY 592. Prerequisites: PHY 592 or consent of instructor.
-
