Physics on the Back of an Envelope (Estimation in Physics)
Course #: PHYSIC 635
Description:
The goal of the course is to introduce the students to a comprehensive array of qualitative methods practiced by researchers but rarely taught. The focus will be on occurrences in a wide range of areas, including Quantum Mechanics and Differential Equations. As the course title indicates, these methods allow for the quick, and relatively painless, estimation of magnitude of effects prior to subjecting them to more rigors. The ability to do this is widely regarded as the defining characteristic of physicists.
