Announcements

08/27/04: To get on the class email list, please send an email to gonch@berkeley.edu

08/30/04: Today is the first day of class. Welcome to flavor country.

09/07/04: The derivation of the Heisenberg Uncertainty relation for position and momentum is placed under the Additional Uffstay menu. Also, a few of you keep sending me emails to get on the class email list. Only one is necessary. Multiple emails will result in entering a world of pain. Especially if you mark that frame an eight.

09/08/04: The TA that controls this website is a huge moron and accidentally wrote that the homework is due on Monday, October 13 yesterday on the website. Its actually due on this Monday, Septeber 13. Lo siento for any unnecessary and unauthorized excitement I may have caused.

09/10/04: Allright boys and girls get ready for a night of excitement. Coming to Tuesday nights, at a location to be named, you will have a Quantum Review Session. Tentatively scheduled for between 6 and 7, the review session will be hosted by such TAs as Kateri DuBay and Matthew Prantil. Unfortunately, Scott Goncher will also be in attendance.

09/13/04: So, the class email list is finished, there is no need to send any emails to gonch@berkeley.edu, although he does love to get them. The email that we will be contacting you with is the one that is registered with Bearfacts, so make sure to check that one every now and again.

09/17/04: Homeworks will now be due on the Wednesday following the Wednesday after the homework is posted on the website. Some may call that the Wednesday of the following week. Review sessions will now be on Thursday, at the same time and place. An email was sent out to all students in the class, so if you didn't get this email, you are not on the list. Actually, I don't know when the email will be sent out, so wait until after the weekend before you pillage my inbox.

10/06/04: Need more ammo to be able to yell at the TAs about the grading of the exam? Midterm solutions can be found above ADC on the exams link from the main menu (the menu to the right of this screen).

10/17/04: Check out the supplemental material that Professor Yang posted in order to quash the discrepancy regarding the Bohr magneton raised in class. Its in the Additional Uffstay menu. On a related note, quash is a funny word.

11/03/04: Due to popular demand, last year's midterm has been placed on the website. You can get to it by either clicking this link here (actually the link is right here), or by going to the exam page where it is posted. However, this test may not be terribly useful because it seems last year they covered different topics. But do with it what you will.

11/30/04: I regret to inform you that I do not know how to multiply by four. This may have caused you to download a solution set that contained an error in 5c. That error has since been corrected, and a solutions set that gives the real solutions is now available. Also, there was a typo in problem 10-13c of the solutions manual. This also has been changed.

11/30/04: Another announcement on the greatest day of announcements ever. I placed a link for the page that has the program that models wavepacket evolution in a harmonic potential. Have fun. Oh, in case you couldn't figure it out, the link is on the links page.

12/09/04: The location of the final will be in Hearst Gym Room 230. I put a map up on the website so that you can figure out where hearst gym is. I also put a red arrow in what would seem like a random place on the map. In reality, that arrow points to the building that houses the location of the seat where you take your final, and where I will take a three hour nap. Note: do not look for a large arrow when looking for the building. You will not find one, and then you will miss the exam. Click here to go to the map.
