| | The [[https://physics.oregonstate.edu/dirac-electrons-one-two-and-three-dimensions|physics colloquium on Monday 4/8 at 4pm in Wngr 328]] (right after our class) is of interest. Prof. Vikram Deshpande of University of Utah will talk about topological insulators, 2D materials and carbon nanotubes. |

| On Friday 4/1, JT will be out of town and Jason Vielma will run the class. He will introduce you to the computer system used to access Wien 2k. If convenient, bring along your laptop. This will be more convenient than the computers in the classroom, which are rather slow. | The comprehensive exam for physics graduate students overlaps PH575 class time on Monday 4/1. In the Monday 4/1 class, there will be a review of mathematical concepts used in the class that should not be necessary for the physics grads (though I will repeat the class upon request). Others should attend. The first "official" class is on Wednesday 4/3. |

| ==== 2/20/11 ==== | 2019 is the [[https://www.iypt2019.org/|International Year of the Periodic Table]], celebrating 150 years since Mendeleev discovered the period system. [[http://www.nisenet.org/events/other/IYPT2019|Explore this amazing scientific achievement]]. |
| Physics graduate students: The comp exam is to be held on the first Monday of class. Class WILL be held that day, but you are excused if you are taking the exam. There is a make-up lecture on Tuesday 3/29 at 7-8 pm in WGR 304. The material (atomic orbitals bra-ket notation) should be very familiar to physics students. Anyone can attend the make-up lecture. | |
