what's new

 
 
  1. Sunday, April 27. Remember that we have these extra lectures on the development of the Standard Model. Monday, same time, same place. Tuesday, 10AM, same place. No charge. Bring a friend.
  2. Sunday, April 27. Problem set #3 had some typos. The Assignments link leads to the revised version.
  3. Monday, April 21. Problem set #3 is up. Note that there are some optional problems. Think of it as your final exam.
 


 

what's not
Old announcements will be archived here.


  • Monday, April 21. Scanned lecture notes up.
  • Monday, April 21. um, just realized this...I was too enthusiastic when I wiped out a line from problem set #2. I presume you figured it out, but for completeness...here's the missing bit, the, definition of eta:

    and...in the second part (jeese), u^{\pm}, obviously..not just u^{+}:
  • Monday, April 21. Calendar is up to date. It turns out that we cannot do Wednesday next week. As we discussed on Friday, it appears that Tuesday after 10 is okay, so that's what I've arranged. So, our Standard Model classes will be on Monday at our regular time and Tuesday at 10AM...in our regular room.
  • Wednesday, April 16. Fixed problem set in homework. You can have another week to finish if you want.
  • Wednesday, April 16. Calendar is up to date. Notice that there will be another problem set due during finals week. Notice also that we can have these extra lectures at our regular time, regular room on M and W of finals week. Remember, these will be specifically on the Standard Model (SM), in particular drawing on the language and tools of the mean field description of second order phase transitions which forms the basis of the SM. It'll be fun.
  • Tuesday, April 1. New problem set and notes on helicity and chirality up in 'assignments.'
  • Wednesday, March 19. More lecture notes are up in 'NOTES'.
  • Wednesday, March 19. Calendar is up to date.
  • Sunday, March 16. Many lecture notes are up in 'NOTES'.
  • Sunday, March 16. Calendar is updated.
  • Sunday, March 2. Calendar is updated.
  • Sunday, February 16. Calendar is updated to count the algebraic sum of lectures owed you and for homework due date. Note, I predicted that I would be in town all of this week...but I lied. I must return to Fermilab Wednesday night for the rest of the week. Calendar predicts next makeup opportunity. Sorry. I'll explain Monday...we're currently rediscovering the top quark.
  • Sunday, February 16. Problem set #1is up as a pdf document. Go to ASSIGNMENTS (left).
  • Monday, January 20. Calendar is up.
  • Tuesday, January 7. Class time and location have been changed: normal class will be MW 11:30-12:45 in room 1308BPS. A backup time/place will be F, same time, same place. Wednesday's class will be at the new time and location.
  • Friday, January 3. Still building the site...done sometime this weekend.
  • Watch this space for notices, announcements, etc.
