When zillions of particles angrily bounce upon each other, genuinly new phenomena are born. Gases and liquids, in their whirlwind dance, often produce terrifying stroms: these are perfect examples of Emergence.

Welcome to:


PHY 3400 Phenomena in Condensed Matter


This is an upper-level undergraduate course, with the goal to explain the concepts of modern Condensed Matter Physics. The emphasis of the courses is equally on conceptual grasp of the subject as well as on problem solving.

The key component of this course is the collaborative student contribution to the course Wiki-textbook. Each team of students is responsible for BOTH writing the assigned chapter AND editing chapters of others.

Outline of the course:

Crystals

Quasi-crystals

Liquids

Quantum liquids
