This semester (Fall 2007), I'm teaching
Physics 253: Quantum Mechanics
for the 6th straight year. As always, we are using
Quantum Mechanics, Volume One by C. Cohen-Tannoudji, et al.
For Spring 2008, I'll probably be teaching Physics 256: Particle Physics and Cosmology,
which I developed and first offered as a regular course in 2006.
I've taught a variety of courses in past semesters at Georgetown, including:
- Physics 042: Principles of Physics II (Spring 2002)
- Physics 108: Vibrations, Fluids, and Waves [tutorials] (Spring 2001, 2002)
- Physics 217: The Structure of Matter [team-taught with J. Urbach] (Fall 2001)
- Physics 253: Quantum Mechanics (Fall 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006)
- Physics 256: Particle Physics and Cosmology (Spring 2006)
- Physics 503: Computational Techniques (Spring 2004, 2005)
- Physics 504: Numerical Simulation Techniques (Fall 2001, 2002, Spring 2004, 2005)
- Physics 535: Physics Lab Rotation (Fall 2004)
The students have sometimes convinced me to offer additional courses outside of our normal curriculum
(taken as Physics 260: Special Topics in Physics). These have included:
- Relativity and Quantum Mechanics (Spring 2002)
- Biological Pattern Formation (Fall 2003)
- Statistical and Classical Mechanics (Fall 2004)
- Particle Physics and Cosmology (Spring 2005)
Before coming to Georgetown, I taught two courses at Cornell University:
- Physics 481/681: Pattern Formation and Spatiotemporal Chaos [team-taught with E. Bodenschatz]
- Physics 216: Introduction to Special Relativity
