Welcome to the homepage for the PY212 summer course 2002!

Dear colleagues!

Access since 3rd April 2003 : CNW:Counter

The grading is finished.

I am not allowed to publish any list but I will answer all emails.

I believe I have made a fair scale using your results but also taking into account your activity and progress during the course. I am sorry, if someone will be disappointed by his or her degree but bear in mind, that even the grades may be important to you at the moment, in reality it is much more important what physical knowledge and also attitude towards physics you received! I tryied to do my best in this respect.

Since I am leaving on Tuesday I will leave the final exams with Predeep Kumar Office SCI B13 / tel. 353 9536 and after two weeks he will give it to Prof. Elizabeth Simmons, who is in charge for undergraduate studies.

I have prolonged my office hours but they will always take place i my office SCI 242.

At the time you can get to the

  27. VIII Review

Note that the lectures on-line are not self-explaining. They contain no figures nor deeper explanation! Note that the lectures are "upgraded" also backwards, so you can get better versions even of the first lectures now.

Some things still need to be brushed up. I will try to do that always during the weekends, so on Mondays morning the previous week should be OK.

There are dark blue pages with the main text and light blue pages with some more detailed explanation, sometimes there are more of them. In the end of the last one there should be an arrow to get back to the main text. I would be grateful for any comments! I would also be grateful if some Windows expert could recommend me how to insert figures in some effective way.
