http://www.math.tamu.edu/research/vigre/2003a-kuchment.html

Extractions: The class will be devoted to studying the basic underlying mathematical structures of the three cornerstones of mechanics: Newtonian, Lagrangian, and (time permitting) Hamiltonian mechanics. We will discuss the basic principles of mechanics: space and time, inertial systems of coordinates, and Galilean relativity principle. Important special cases will be considered, as for instance motion in central fields, Kepler's laws of planetary motions, and others. More complex motions of rigid bodies will be studied as well.
Piet Hut: Book Review Of Structure And Interpretation Of Classical Mechanics
After all, classical mechanics is only a limiting case of quantum mechanics I wish I had been introduced to classical mechanics through this book before
http://www.ids.ias.edu/~piet/publ/other/sicm.html

Extractions: by G. J. Sussman and J. Wisdom, with Hardy Mayer (M.I.T. Press) Piet Hut Institute for Advanced Study Princeton, NJ This is the first book I have come across that explains classical mechanics using the variational principle in such a way that there are no ambiguities in either the presentation or the notation. The resultant leap toward clarity and precision is likely to influence a new generation of physics students, opening their eyes to the beauty of classical mechanics. Quite likely, some of these students will be inspired to find newer and deeper interpretations of classical mechanics. In turn, such deeper insight may well lead to a deeper understanding of quantum mechanics. After all, classical mechanics is only a limiting case of quantum mechanics, and the variational principle is the main bridge between the two. Many physics students are introduced to Hamiltonians and Lagrangians only in their first course on quantum mechanics. It often comes as a surprise to them to hear that both Hamilton and Lagrange were long dead by 1925, and that in fact their methods had been around for most of the nineteenth century. Rushing on to quantum mechanics this way turns the historical development on its head, thus obscuring the most fundamental relationship between classical and quantum mechanics, and making the latter seem even more mysterious and weird than it really is. As a result, students come away with the impression that quantum mechanics uses tools that are fundamentally different from those used in classical mechanics. Furthermore, it seems as if one has to go through great trouble to extract something resembling classical equations of motion from approximate treatments of expectation values of quantum mechanical variables.

A Quantum Leap For Cosmology (November 2001) - Physics World - PhysicsWeb
A theory that unites quantum mechanics and general relativity claims that there was no first moment in time, but it still agrees with the predictions of classical cosmology.
http://physicsweb.org/article/world/14/11/3

Extractions: It's in the stars One of the most challenging problems in modern physics is the application of quantum theory to the universe as a whole. Progress in this area has been plagued by two types of problem: conceptual and technical. The conceptual problems arise from the old difficulties of interpreting quantum theory. The standard interpretations require that the measuring instruments and observers are outside the quantum system described by the wavefunction. In the late 1950s, however, Hugh Everett proposed an interpretation of quantum theory that might apply to systems that include the observers and measuring instruments, but the adequacy of such interpretations has remained controversial to this day. The technical problems are no less severe or fundamental. Ever since the pioneering work of Bryce DeWitt, Charles Misner and others in the 1960s, quantum cosmology has basically been studied by applying quantum theory to simple models of the universe. These models typically assume that the universe is completely homogeneous. As a result they only have a few degrees of freedom - the radius of the universe and the value of one or more matter fields. One then makes a quantum-cosmological model by quantizing these simple descriptions of the universe.

http://users.powernet.co.uk/bearsoft/index.html

Extractions: Bruce Harvey 's Alternative Physics site New:- A Classical Quantum Theory I believe that subtle errors in 19th Century Physics have caused a build up of cumulative errors until physics now out-weirds science fiction. This is my attempt to find the Unified Laws of Physics I have a consistent theory which explains the phenomena of Electromagnetism, Newtonian Mechanics and Gravity. (In paper 5 , I use Classical physics to account for the so called relativistic effects of the increase in mass, the Lorentz contraction and the slowing of clocks which SR accounts for. I also account for the effects of the slowing of clocks and gravitational red-shift by gravitational potential and the bending of light by gravity.) We start with the Pure Charge Model of Matter . This theory looks at a universe constructed of nothing but space and sees how electrons and quarks could be formed and used as basic building blocks for matter. Such a model exhibits inertial and gravitational properties identical to the real universe. Newtons Laws of Motion can be derived from the basic properties of space and the nature of pure charges.
Quantum Logic And Probability Theory
How quantum mechanics can be regarded as a nonclassical probabilistic calculus; by Alexander Wilce.
http://plato.stanford.edu/entries/qt-quantlog/

Extractions: Please Read How You Can Help Keep the Encyclopedia Free At its core, quantum mechanics can be regarded as a non-classical probability calculus resting upon a non-classical propositional logic. More specifically, in quantum mechanics each probability-bearing proposition of the form "the value of physical quantity A lies in the range B " is represented by a projection operator on a Hilbert space H . These form a non-Boolean in particular, non-distributive orthocomplemented lattice. Quantum-mechanical states correspond exactly to probability measures (suitably defined) on this lattice. What are we to make of this? Some have argued that the empirical success of quantum mechanics calls for a revolution in logic itself. This view is associated with the demand for a realistic interpretation of quantum mechanics, i.e., one not grounded in any primitive notion of measurement. Against this, there is a long tradition of interpreting quantum mechanics operationally, that is, as being precisely a theory of measurement. On this latter view, it is not surprising that a "logic" of measurement-outcomes, in a setting where not all measurements are compatible, should prove not to be Boolean. Rather, the mystery is why it should have the

Introductory Physics At IUPUI
introduces engineering and physical science students to the foundations of classical physics mechanics, Electromagnetism, Thermodynamics, and Optics.
http://webphysics.iupui.edu/introphysics

Extractions: Welcome to the home page for introductory physics at IUPUI . Comprised of two courses, PHYS152 and PHYS251, this sequence introduces engineering and physical science students to the foundations of classical physics: Mechanics, Electromagnetism, Thermodynamics, and Optics. To access the course materials please click on Phys152 or Phys251 above. The courses are taught in a non-traditional manner, combining a collaborative learning environment with extensive use of the world wide web. Our use of the web is twofold. Active learner assignments and enrichment materials are delivered to the students over the web. Most respond to these assignments electronically. In addition, we have adapted a subset of these assignments to provide immediate feedback to the instructors concerning the state of the classes' progress. These assignments, due in the morning a few hours before class, are used to adjust the lecture content to suit the student's needs. We have designated this technique Just-in-Time Teaching. The faculty at IUPUI are collaborating with faculty at the United States Air Force Academy on this project. We are jointly authoring instructional materials and we are sharing classroom experiences and comparing performance outcomes.
