It's a new year, with new lectures. Today is an introduction to Thermal and Statistical Physics. We do a lightning-fast review of quantum mechanics, aided by the excellent program Atom in a Box available at www.daugerresearch.com. We also discuss the... more
Prof. Carlson is teaching a new course this semester, entitled Solid State Physics.
Here is a taste of the new course, which has a separate podcast in iTunes. Search podcasts for Carlson to find the new one, which hopefully will appear in the directo... more
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.

- 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.

United States20 years ago - 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
Apple Podcasts5MPLAWUnited States20 years ago - 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.
Apple Podcasts4Will D.United States20 years ago - 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
