Undergraduate Physics Degree Programs
Physics is concerned with the most basic principles that underlie all phenomena in the universe. Physicists ask, “How does the world work?” They search for the most elementary particles; they seek understanding of the behavior of collections of particles ranging from quarks in nuclei and electrons in atoms to stars in galaxies; they strive for insights into the nature of space and time, and the...
متن کامل$p$-Adic Mathematical Physics: The First 30 Years
p-Adic mathematical physics is a branch of modern mathematical physics based on the application of p-adic mathematical methods in modeling physical and related phenomena. It emerged in 1987 as a result of efforts to find a non-Archimedean approach to the spacetime and string dynamics at the Planck scale, but then was extended to many other areas including biology. This paper contains a brief re...
متن کاملComputation in Undergraduate Physics: The Lawrence Approach
The physics program at Lawrence University has introduced sophisticated computational techniques throughout its curriculum. Distinguishing features of the Lawrence approach include a focus on flexible, general purpose computational packages, application to theory and experiment, extensive use for preparing reports, and distribution throughout the curriculum. Most importantly, computation is int...
متن کاملPhysics in 100 years
Here I indulge in wide-ranging speculations on the shape of physics, and technology closely related to physics, over the next one hundred years. Themes include the many faces of unification, the re-imagining of quantum theory, and new forms of engineering on small, intermediate, and large scales. When Leon Cooper, on behalf of Brown University, asked me to contribute to their 250th anniversary ...
متن کاملThe first physics results from
The BaBar experiment and the PEP-II accelerator at SLAC started to take data on May 26, 1999. By the time of this conference, the recorded integrated luminosity was 20 fb −1 , of which 8 fb −1 were analyzed to provide a first set of physics results. This talk reviews the first measurement of sin 2β and the study of B meson decays to charmonium modes and 2-body charmless decays. Complementary re...
