Computational Physics

The Part II Computational Physics course consists of three components: a lecture course, a set of compulsory practical exercises, and an optional project. The formal details of these modules are available on the relevant course pages on the Teaching Information Service (TiS) website, but some additional information and links to resources you can use are given below.

Lectures take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1100 in the Pippard, weeks 1тАУ4, starting Jan 14th. PDF files containing the lecture handouts will appear on the Computational Physics section of the TiS as the material is presented.

Practical classes with demonstrator support will take place on Fridays, Mondays, and Wednesdays in weeks 4-7, from 1400-1730. You can use the MCS outside these hours subject to availability of workstations.

The manual for the practical exercises will be available on the Computing Practical Work (2) section of the TiS. You can start these as soon as the manual is available.

The deadline for the hand-in of exercises is the last day of Lent Term, (Friday 11th March 2016) at 1600 UTC.

You will be able to download the projects manual from the Computing Project section of the TiS. You can choose a project and start as soon as the manual is available - note that you do not need to formally register for a project before you start work.

The project deadline is the first Monday of Easter term (25th April 2016) at 1600.
