of matter, electricity and radiant energy; molecular, atomic and
nuclear structure emissions; theoretical viewpoints upon above problems
with Special emphasis on their compatibility; relativity; astrophysics.

 

 

 

This course is a unified presentation of the use of atomism in the
deveIOpment of modern physical ideas. The basic concepts of many

modern physical theories will be discussed disembodied as far as feasible
from the involved techniques of the theoretical specialist. This course
is intended to provide a survey of recent physics for those interested

in professions other than adVanced physics and a useful introduction for
those planning to pursue physics intensively.

 

 

It has been made necessary by the recent develOpments in the field

of physics. It is a valuable part of our cyclic offering for advanced

students and will not, therefore, increase the teaching load but, when .
given, will substitute for some other course. “
