The physics program at Harvey Mudd College provides depth and breadth in both classical and modern physics through lecture-discussion courses, laboratories and joint student-faculty research. The program is designed to serve as a strong foundation for graduate work or employment in physics and other technical fields. A set of core courses is required of all physics majors; in addition, a variety of elective courses enables students to select a program to suit their interests and their educational and employment objectives. Laboratory courses in both introductory and advanced physics include experience with electronics, classical and modern optics, solid-state physics, and atomic and nuclear physics. Special courses and reading courses provide the opportunity for study in advanced areas normally offered only in graduate programs. Each student is encouraged to do individual experimental or theoretical research in an area of his/her special interest, in conjunction with a faculty member. Current student-faculty research areas include observational astronomy, astrophysics, biophysics, computational physics, general relativity and cosmology, geophysics, laser and atomic spectroscopy, particle physics, quantum theory and solid-state physics. In some of the optional programs, physics majors may elect to do research in biology or chemistry or participate in Computer Science, Engineering, Mathematics or Physics Clinic Team projects.

Dr. Mendel Sachs On compatibility of the quantum theory and theory of general relativity by Dr. Mendel Sachs. http://www.compukol.com/mendel/
Extractions: The Future of Physics? My name is Mendel Sachs. My subject is theoretical physics. I have recently become aware of this excellent means of communicating ideas to my fellow physicists. I would like to ask your indulgence in some of my thoughts about physics today. I have discovered during my professional career that in order to increase our comprehension of the material world, it is necessary to ask significant questions and then try to answer them, as completely and rigorously as possible no matter how hard this may seem to be at the outset. A "significant question" to me is one whose answer could possibly increase our understanding. Of course, there is no guarantee at the outset that the question would turn out to be significant in the final analysis. On the other hand, it is often clear when a question (that a great deal of attention may be given to) is not significant! Let me start out, then, with some questions that I believe are significant, and then try to answer them, in my view. 1) What do we presently believe are the most fundamental assertions of the laws of nature? My answer is: The bases of the quantum theory and the theory of relativity. I am not referring here to mathematical expressions of these theories; I refer to the basic concepts that underlie these expressions. If you do not agree with this answer, or those to the questions below, please respond with your own views.
C Tutorial The general syntax is printf( format , variables ); where format specifies the converstion specification and variables is a list of quantities to print. http://www.physics.drexel.edu/courses/Comp_Phys/General/C_basics/c_tutorial.html
Extractions: Table of Contents: This section contains a brief introduction to the C language. It is intended as a tutorial on the language, and aims at getting a reader new to C started as quickly as possible. It is certainly not intended as a substitute for any of the numerous textbooks on C. The best way to learn a new ``human'' language is to speak it right from the outset, listening and repeating, leaving the intricacies of the grammar for later. The same applies to computer languagesto learn C, we must start writing C programs as quickly as possible. An excellent textbook on C by two well-known and widely respected authors is: The C Programming Language ANSI C Prentice Hall, 1988 Let's be polite and start by saluting the world!

A History Of Physics At Purdue Essay on the war time history of the physics department of Purdue University detailing work done there as a part of the Manhattan Project and in physics in general. http://www.physics.purdue.edu/about_us/history/war_period.shtml
Extractions: -Solomon Gartenhaus, Arnold Tubis, David Cassidy, and Ralph Bray Seymour Benzer (standing) and Karl Lark-Horowitz in the Purdue physics laboratory. Courtesy of Seymour Benzer. Preparations During the period 1935-1941, research activities in the physics department proceeded almost as if America's entry into World War II had been forseen and that the department would play an important role in the associated war effort. The number of tenure/tenure-track faculty almost doubled, increasing from 7 to 13 during this period and the research productivity as indexed by publications in the Physical Review went up proportionally to nearly 25 publications per year. It was during this period that the department became a major player in nuclear physics research, with the construction of a Van de Graaff accelerator and, more importantly, a cyclotron which would give the department unique capabilities for carrying out research during war time. As envisioned, the Van de Graaff accelerator was designed to produce a stream of neutrons through "high energy" deuteron-deuteron collisions with the resultant neutron flux then being used to study neutron diffraction and neutron activation of heavy elements. Three graduate students, R.E. Schreiber, R.E. Holmquist and W.A. Miller, worked on and completed the construction of this accelerator in 1937 at a total cost of only $825.62 above the cost of labor! Unfortunately, the resultant 250 KeV neutron beam only had a flux of about 0.25 milliampere which was too small to be useful for studying neutron diffraction. However, two years later in 1939, following the discovery in Germany by Otto Hahn, Lisa Meitner, and Fritz Strassmann of the fission of uranium when bombarded with low energy neutrons, the Van de Graaff was put to use to study fission fragments. Detection of the fragments was done by the use of photographic plates.

Hiroshima And Nagasaki For Physics Teachers Information on a workshop for physics teachers who wish to explore creation of a general education course or units about the effects of the nuclear policies of nations. http://titan.iwu.edu/~physics/Hiroshima/
Extractions: Project Illinois Wesleyan University has unusual success with its course, " Problems of Nuclear Disarmament ." It deals with what journalists have voted to be " The Story of the Century ." Students apparently wish to know about their futures and the challenges they may have to face. Perhaps on your campus there already exists a course which deals with the problems of nuclear war, and the social, biological, and physical effects on the cities and people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki wherein the death toll was well beyond 200,000. We believe such courses are rare. We further believe that college teachers can develop unique understandings and approaches to the problems brought about by contemporary threats to world peace, including nuclear weapons.

Extractions: Credit: Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory Catching neutrinos from the Sun. The Sudbury Neutrino Observatory (SNO) is hardly your average physics experiment: buried in a 2000 meter deep mine in Ontario and filled with 1000 tons of heavy water, its purpose is to catch neutrinos, spritely particles which form in the center of the Sun and usually fly through the Earth without being captured. Recent results from this experiment have solved a long-standing discrepancy; we now know that the number of neutrinos observed from the Sun is equal to the predictions of theoretical nuclear physics and that neutrinos can oscillate between three different "flavors" during the course of their trip. Links Questions Although our website is about astronomy, we receive many questions that are related, in whole or in part, to the science of physics.
