Classical Electromagnetism EM01/2022

The idea of 'field' first emerged in the human mind while exploring the nature of charged objects and magnets. the individual ideas of galvanism, electricity, and magnetism merged into a single theory through numerous experiments and critical reasonings by the scholars of the nineteenth century. Maturing over more than two centuries, the classical theory of electromagnetism portrays fundamental interactions between fields and charged matters and help enhance our understanding of Nature. The course, 'Classical Electromagnetism EM01/2022', offered by CP includes all the aspects of this elegant field theory from static fields to dynamic fields. Followers will learn and feel the physics of electromagnetism which is found almost everywhere, whether it is the reflection on the soap bubble or the cosmic microwave background. The participants will walk through the coursework including regular homework, midterm examinations, and final examinations only to strengthen their understanding of the features of the enriched subject.

Quantum Mechanics QM01/2023

Quantum Mechanics is a fundamental theory in physics that provides a description of the physical properties of nature at the scale of atoms and subatomic particles. It is the foundation of all quantum physics including quantum chemistry, quantum field theory, quantum technology, and quantum information science. Classical physics, the description of physics that existed before the theory of relativity and quantum mechanics, describes many aspects of nature at an ordinary (macroscopic) scale, while quantum mechanics explains the aspects of nature at small (atomic and subatomic) scales, for which classical mechanics is insufficient. Most theories in classical physics can be derived from quantum mechanics as an approximation valid at large (macroscopic) scale. [Source: Wikipedia]

General Relativity GR01/2022

For more than two centuries, Newton's theory of gravity was prevalent in describing the interaction between two bodies due to their masses. But after the publication of Einstein's Special Relativity in 1905, the inadequacy of Newton's theory was apparent. Einstein resolved the problem in 1915 discovering the fundamental nature of gravitational interaction between masses. The discovery was a milestone marking the beginning of a new era of physics and the birth of ‘the Theory of General Relativity' which is the most appropriate theory of gravity so far. Many of its accurate predictions, later confirmed experimentally as well as mathematical rigor has made this theory an essential tool for understanding the nature more precisely. The course 'General Relativity GR01/2022' will allow the learners to perceive the mathematics of spacetime and the way this theory describes and predicts many cosmological phenomena. The participants will walk-through the coursework including regular homework, midterm examinations, and final examinations only to strengthen their understanding of the features of the enriched subject.

Statistical Mechanics SM01/2025

In physics, statistical mechanics is a mathematical framework that applies statistical methods and probability theory to large assemblies of microscopic entities. It does not assume or postulate any natural laws, but explains the macroscopic behavior of nature from the behavior of such ensembles. Statistical Mechanics arose out of the development of classical thermodynamics, a field for which it was successful in explaining macroscopic physical properties such as temperature, pressure, heat capacity, in terms of microscopic parameters that fluctuate about average values, characterized by probability distributions. This established the field of statistical thermodynamics and statistical physics. [Source: Wikipedia]

Quantum Fields QF01/2026

In physics, Quantum Field Theory (QFT) is a theoretical framework that combines classical field theory, special relativity and quantum mechanics. QFT is used in particle physics to construct physical models of subatomic particles and in condensed matter physics to construct models of quasiparticles. QFT treats particles as excited states (also called quanta) of their underlying quantum fields, which are more fundamental than the particles. Interactions between particles are described by interaction terms in the Lagrangian involving their corresponding quantum fields. Each interaction can be visually represented by Feynman diagrams according to perturbation theory in quantum mechanics. [Source: Wikipedia]
