  Course Description

  The use of computers in Physics has grown enormously in the twentieth and twenty-first centuries, to the point where computers play a central role in virtually every new physics discovery. Assuming no previous computer programming experience, the course will introduce the basic ideas and programming skills of computational physics and students will develop their own computer software to solve problems in quantum physics, electromagnetism, biophysics, mechanics, chaos, nonlinear dynamics, mathematical methods in physics, geophysics, spectral analysis and other areas.

  This course gives a modern introduction to the basic methods in computational Physics and an overview of the recent progress in scientific computing. Many examples from recent research in Physics and related areas are given with the Mathematica and other computer packages and computer languages. Basic computational tools and routines, including the ones for numerical integrations, differential equations, mathematical modeling, data visualization, spectral analysis, and matrix operations, are dealt with through relevant examples, and more advanced topics, such as quantum mechanics, mathematical methods in physics, geophysics, wavelet analysis, molecular dynamics, Monte Carlo simulations and quantum computing are also treated.
