This is a final review for the last 1/4 of the course. This is a very short lecture, because we had a field trip to go see the prestigious Bagwell Lecture given by Purdue's very own Prof. Albert Overhauser of the world-famous Overhauser Effect. more

  • Awesome now you don't need to listen in class

    I'm not even in college yet but this podcast has helped me expand my knowledge of physics and a vast amount of other fields. This podcast was very helpful.

  • A good job ...

    "Energies add and the total is conserved; probabilities multiply and the product is unchanged." - Edward Teller I joined the class late, what I knew about equilibrium statistical physics is contained in this quote from Teller’s book: “Conversations On the Dark Secrets of Physics” Teller was one of the great physicists of the 20th century, a man of his political circumstances and times. I personally did not agree with most of his politics, with one exception, not knowing very much about anyth... more

  • Interesting and surprisingly accessible.

    I have really enjoyed this podcast. The subject is very interesting, and Professor Carlson does an excellent job in explaining the physics behind the laws of thermodynamics. I say this as a person that has not studied any calculus -- I must admit that when the Professor turns to the equations I haven't a clue what's going on -- but the equations are bracketed by very clear explanations and examples. I'm looking forward to the next semester.

  • How to teach

    An excellent bridge between statistics and chemistry. Will require, or motivate you to learn, calculus. For those interested in teaching per se, listen for the interactions; the pacing and organization of questions to students, and, especially, the timing, thoughtfulness, and tone of answers to student questions. The explications of the equations begin with motivating physical questions, but also with relations to previously learned math "technology" or similar laws. Even the individual variable... more
