Resources for courses which I am teaching, including lecture notes, problem sheets etc. Important: I will make a set of stripped-down notes (what appears on the projector) before the set of lectures for a given section. Some time after that (a week or so, normally) I will put up the full lecture notes. Note, however, that these will not necessarily contain everything that is explained in the lectures. Electromagnetic Theory (3rd Year)This has the course number PHAS3201. Lectures are at 4pm on Mondays and 2pm on Tuesdays in the Massey Lecture Theatre and 4pm on Fridays in the Chemistry Lecture Theatre. Office hours are 1pm-2pm on Mondays and Fridays in my office (4C2 in the LCN). (See my calendar here for confirmation.) The official web page is here, while the moodle page is here, but only this page and the moodle pages will be kept updated. PHAS3201 Notes
