Undergraduate level research topic in physics

AI Thread Summary
A final-year BSc Physics student in India is seeking guidance on theoretical project topics to undertake before starting a postgraduate course. With a background in Quantum Mechanics and ongoing studies in Complex Analysis, the student is particularly interested in areas such as Matrix Mechanics, Hamiltonian dynamics, and aspects of Mathematical Physics like Matrix Theory and Harmonic Analysis. The aim is to approach local university professors with a well-defined project proposal. The student is looking for suggestions on undergraduate-level research topics that align with their knowledge and interests in these fields.

I am a Final year (3rd year) student studying BSc Physics in India. My undergraduate course is getting completed in one month. As I want to pursue my career in field of physics, I like to do a project especially a theoretical project (kind of writing a junior level thesis) before joining Postgraduate course. I will be having atleast two month free time. I am planning to approach professors in universities on my location, for that i have to be sure what i am proposed to do (project i am willing to do). Honestly to say I have no idea what to do. But I already done a reading project in Quantum mechanics for a month and presently i am learning Complex analysis(mathematical physics).
I have interest in these topics (1) Quantum mechanics (Matrix mechanics, Hamiltonian)
(2) Mathematical physics (Matrix theory (upto eigenvalues, eigenvectors, some linear algebra), harmonic analysis (upto Fourier transforms, Fourier series, etc)
Please Suggest me some Undergraduate level Research project topics that I can do and I acquired some knowledge through my undergraduate course on these topics i mentioned above.
Thank you in Advance​

I am only in year 1 of my undergraduate degree, but as long as you know some maths you can contribute to really any project by doing the grunt work.
 
TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
Hi community My aim is to get into research about atoms, specifically, I want to do experimental research that explores questions like: 1. Why do Gallium/Mercury have low melting points 2. Why are there so many exceptions and inconsistencies when it comes to explaining molecular structures / reaction mechanisms in inorganic and organic chemistry 3. Experimental research about fundamental Quantum Mechanics, such as the one being followed by Hiroshima university that proved that observing...
guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
