The physical laws which govern electrodynamics were unified (and corrected) by James Clerk Maxwell, the hero of our course, who, alas, did not get a trademark for "Maxwell's Equations". T-shirt vendors have taken full advantage of this. He also made the first true color photograph and made important contributions to statistical mechanics.

Week 5 (Sep 19-23):

• NOTE: there will be an assignment coming up asking you to read a physics paper from a journal, and summarize it. More information will be forthcoming, but for now check out the link and start thinking about finding a paper to read!

• Office hours/help sessions: See "Instructor info" link
  
  
• Solutions: See "virtual office hours" link, in addition to the d2l (learn.colorado.edu) site.
  
  
• Exams: Our two midterms will be Tuesday evenings, Oct 4 and Nov 1, from 7 to 9 PM. These exam dates are now set!
