Featured Courses for Spring 2021:
History of Physics
How Important Discoveries Were Actually Made
(not the way they are described in most physics textbooks)
Physics 4920: Topics in Contemporary Theoretical Physics
Mon/Wed 1:40PM-2:55PM, Online, 3 Units
Taught by Martin Epstein
This class will cover the development of physics from the Greeks to the present. We will study the works of Aristotle, Archimedes, Galileo, Newton, Maxwell, Einstein, Bohr and others up to recent discoveries such as, superconductivity, nuclear fission, dark matter, the Higgs boson and gravitation waves. We will study the historical contexts in which these important developments came about and examine the process of discovery including the false starts and mistakes that occurred along the way.
This class can be used to satisfy part of the physics elective requirements for the BS, BA and MS degrees in Physics.
