The ability to simulate nature using a computer has become a useful skill for physicists who work in disciplines ranging from basic research to video games.  This class will teach you these fundamentals using a practical approach, based on a specific UNIX based programming environment, to simulate fundamental physics processes ranging from ionization and the photoelectric effect to producing anti-matter.

Grading

Course grade will be assigned based on homework and a Simulation project according to the table below.

Condition Grade Calculation
If all Homework is complete and Simulation project is turned in on time (50%) Homework + (50%)(Simulation Project)
If 1 homework set is incomplete or more than 48 hours late (60%)Homework + (40%)(Simulation Project)
Otherwise (70%)Homework + (30%)(Simulation Project)

Grading Scale : 90-100% = A, 80-89.9% = B, 70-79.9% = C, 60-69.9% = D, < 60% = F

Homework

Homework is due at the beginning of class on the assigned day. If you have a documented excuse for your absence, then you will have 24 hours to hand in the homework after being released by your doctor.
