This is a set of lecture notes introducing graduate students to the topic of Discontinuous Petrov-Galerkin (DPG) methods.
Recent theoretical results in tau lepton physics and their implications for the experimental analysis are presented. The paper is split into the following chapters: 1. Introduction, 2. Weak Couplings, 3. Inclusive Decays, Perturbative QCD…
This chapter is intended as a pedagogical introduction to the dynamics of optically levitated nanoparticles with a focus on the study of single particle thermodynamics. Much of the work studying thermodynamics with nano- and micro-particles…
Informal collection of lecture notes introducing quantum mechanics in phase space and basic Gaussian quantum mechanics.
The first version of these lecture notes is based on the hand-written notes I prepared for the cosmology course taught to graduate students of PPGFis and PPGCosmo at the Federal University of Esp\'irito Santo (UFES), starting in 2014. The…
This is a self-contained set of lecture notes covering various aspects of the theory of open quantum system, at a level appropriate for a one-semester graduate course. The main emphasis is on completely positive maps and master equations,…
These notes were compiled as lecture notes for a course developed and taught at the University of the Southern California. They should be accessible to a typical engineering graduate student with a strong background in Applied Mathematics.…
This paper will consist of a selected, personal view of some of the issues associated with the intersections of nuclear and particle physics. As well as touching on the recent developments we will attempt to look at how those aspects of the…
These lecture notes are meant to provide a pedagogical introduction, and present the latest theoretical and experimental developments on the physics of vortices in type II superconductors.
These lecture notes are based on a course given at Institut de Physique Th\'eorique of CEA/Saclay in January/February 2013.
These notes are based on a lecture course by L. Chekhov held at the University of Manchester in May 2006 and February-March 2007. They are divulgative in character, and instead of containing rigorous mathematical proofs, they illustrate…
These notes form an introduction to Lie algebras and group theory. Most of the material can be found in many works by various authors given in the list of references. The reader is referred to such works for more detail.
This article is a summary of four introductory lectures on ``Neutrino Experiments,'' given at the 2006 TASI summer school. The purposes were to sketch out the present questions in neutrino physics and to discuss the experimental challenges…
History of Neutrino Physics is revied with special emphasis on anecdotal events often neglected.
