Summer School 2010.9: Quantum Physics
We conclude the 2010 summer school session with lesson nine, dealing with spin. You will also find more content after the break.
Summer School 2010.8: Quantum Physics
The penultimate lesson in our Summer School details how atoms come together.
Summer School 2010.7: Quantum Physics
Our lessons are coming to a close, but that also means they are approaching the modern view of quantum mechanics. This week, we go Down the Rabbit Hole.
Summer School 2010.6: Quantum Physics
We are at the two thirds mark of our summer school. This week’s lesson: Quanta, Quanta Everywhere.
Summer School 2010.5: Quantum Physics
The midpoint in our series on Quantum Mechanics is available here.
Summer School 2010.4: Quantum Physics
Heisenberg’s work is a prominent feature of summer school lesson four, Don’t Underestimate the Power of Virtual Particle Exchange.
Summer School 2010.3: Quantum Physics
Summer school continues. Lesson three is available here. Links to previous lessons are maintained below.
Summer School 2010.2: Quantum Physics
Last week, we were introduced to the basic questions that quantum physics theory is needed to answer. This week, we start answering those questions in part two: Curiouser and Curiouser.
Summer School 2010.1: Quantum Physics
The onset of summer is no excuse to stop learning. In this year’s session, we will address Quantum Physics. Be here each Monday morning through July and August for a new lesson in the nine part series, covering graduate level physics concepts with grade school math, or no math at all. The first lesson: Classical Thinking: Why Does It Fail? Thanks go out to my proofreaders: Gord Haverland, Maurice Hilarius, Bonnie Hogg, Claire MacDonald, Rob MacDonald, Neil Pritchard and Anthony Stauffer. Thanks also go to Stacey Keeler, the artist who created the spiffy new category icon you see here. Complete syllabus below.
