Teaching:
PH30101 (General Relativity): I
teach the whole unit, on General relativity
without tensors, in year 3 semester 1.
PH40086
(Photonics): I teach half the unit, on Optical fibres and photonic crystals, in
year 4 semester 2.
Details can be found on the
appropriate Moodle page.
Of the units I taught in the
past, I produced typeset notes on Fourier analysis
(half of PH20020, Maths for Scientists 4) and Statistical mechanics
(half of PH20029, Thermal Physics). They're available here in case anyone finds
them helpful. (NB Bath students should note that content, notation and
terminology may differ from the units as they are currently taught.)
