Course objectives
The lecture summarizes the university course of general and theoretical physics. Its purpose is to give the global survey as well as the sufficient overview of physics as a whole based on the consciousness of integrating ideas, knowledge of general approaches and understanding of universal connections. The knowledge of individual physical disciplines is used but not repeated in detail.
Syllabus
  • 1. Structure of matter; building blocks hierarchy: bodies, molecules, atoms, particles; interactions, bonds. 2. The response of matter to an external action, response and causality, linear response. 3. Material characteristics and their macroscopic interpretation. 4. Periodic processes and their mathematical description; periodic solutions of equations of motion; oscillations; waves; the principle of superposition; the wave equation. 5. The concept of wave in classical and quantum physics. 6. Solution of physical problems; model and its adequacy; theory and its competency; estimation; calculations; approximate methods, perturbation methods, variation methods.
