Course Resources:
 | Instructor information Link here for information on Adam Johnston, how to find him, when he's in his office, etc. | |
|
| Course syllabus This looks mostly exactly like the printed version, but in case you lost it . . . | |
|
| Course schedule Just like the calendar in the syllabus. | |
|
| Class notes Go here to review notes as imagined by the course instructor. Also, notes for each session will have extra web-demonstrations from time to time to go along with class topics. | |
|
| Assignments and study aides This is exactly what it sounds like. In addition to solutions to your assigned homework, there exist solutions to other questions that might be good study tools. | |
|
| Research project This links to a description of the assigned research project, and eventually an example of a full proposal and write-up of a research project. |
More stuff:
|
| Physics online journals at Stewart Library | |
|
| Physics Today | |
|
|
Usenet Physics FAQ A set of common and interesting questions about physics and physical phenomena, with answers that are written and edited by physicists. | |
|
| PHYSlink This is touted as "The Ultimate Physics Resource." I'd say it's at least very informative and interesting. | |
|
| Physics Web This page presents recent physics research news, updated daily and very readable. | |
|
| Physics Central (APS) | |
|
| Bob Park's "What's New"
weekly column, hosted by the American Physical
Society. This site give some info and editorial regarding recent going's on in physics research. | |
|
| Physical Review's FOCUS A collection of briefs on recent publications in physics. There is a range of readability to these pieces, but they at least give you an idea of the spectrum of topics being pursued in physics research. |
