Theoretical Physics: Classical Mechanics and Special Relativity

Utbildningsfakta

Kod: FYTB14

<p>The aim of this course is that you should learn classical mechanics starting from the principal least action with emphasis on symmetries and conservation laws as well as and special relativity with emphasis on relativistic kinematics. In the course you will learn how to use the Lagrange formalism, get an introduction to the Hamilton formalism, the use of constraints and Lagrange multipliers, a general treatment of the two-body problem and Kepler's laws, Lorentz transformations, four vectors and relativistic kinematics.</p>
