-The equation sheet for MT 1 is {{:mt1_s12_eqns.pdf|here}}Download, print and bring to exam with your notes on the front side.  The equation sheet on the exam will have at least this information, and I may decide to add more.  +[[https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/mrs-bulletin/news/rare-earth-topological-insulator-reveals-its-thermoelectric-properties|Here]] is some fun news about topological insulators with good thermoelectric properties

-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 4/3 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+
  
 +=== 4/16/2019 ===
 +There is a new worksheet on the 4/15 day under "assignments" - you don't need t oturn it in, but it summarizes what we did in class and you should be able to construct it for the molecular orbitals of chain of any number of atoms.

 +There will be a make-up class on Tuesday 4/16 at 8am for those of you who will miss Mon 4/15 for the lunch with Dr. Wineland.
  
 +=== 4/4/2019 ===
 +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.
  
 +=== 3/29/2019 ===
 +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. 
 +=== 2/28/2019 ===
 +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]].
