    Hamilton-jacobi and action angle

    hi i am a MS physics student. We are following the goldstein book for classical mech and have exams next week. Does anyone know of any good (easy - "how to do it" procedure explained) notes or pdf hand outs on the Hamilton Jacobi eq and the action angle variables. I do not have time to study...

    What universities in Australia offer a PhD in Astronomy?

    @ Eri - it does not have to be radio astronomy - as long as it some kind of observational astronomy @chiro - I emails the astronomers there - any other names you may want to share are also welcome.

    Which universities in Australia offer a PhD in Astronomy?

    Hi I am a Physics masters student from India in a college in Texas. I want to pursue a PhD in Astronomy (observational/radio) Australia. I have heard Australia is very good at obs astronomy - however google searches are revealing a lot about the telescopes and other facilities there but...

    How can the virial theorem be applied to a quantum particle in one dimension?

    Homework Statement A quantum particle, i.e. a particle obeying Schrodinger equation and moving in one dimension experiences a potential ˆV (x). In a stationary state of this system show that ⟨x∂/∂x(ˆV(x)⟩ = ⟨ˆp2/2m⟩ Hint: Consider the time dependence of ⟨ˆxˆp⟩. Homework Equations...
