Extractions: Research at R.U. Ph.D. Profiles - the ten Departments ... Research Centres The Department is responsible for teaching and research in both Mathematics and Physics and some inter-disciplinary subjects. Research is centred around four topics: structure and dynamics of amorphous solids, mathematical theory of the dynamics and structure of systems, mathematical modelling - analysis, evaluation, applications, and studies in mathematics and physics education. Main Research Areas In developing the research profile it has been strongly emphasised that teaching and research activities should support each other. The research profile is rather broad, including areas of pure science, and applied science, as well as subjects from the science of science, the history of science, and the didactics of mathematics and physics. The research and development activities are centred around four topics. Structure and Dynamics of Amorphous Solids This is a small but rapidly growing part of solid state physics. Traditionally, solid state physics has focused on crystalline solids, but now research on amorphous solids (bulk-glasses, semiconductors and isolators) and soft condensed matter (liquids, polymers, and molecular aggregates) is developing swiftly. In the Department research is concerned with the following:

Extractions: Contents The MSc Programme in Physics Curriculum Selected Elective Lectures Areas of Research and Study in the Department of Physics ... The City of Stuttgart: Cultural and Industrial Activities The MSc Programme in Physics Physics is concerned with problems that range from minute particles to the universe as a whole. Quantitative methods are used to analyse the apparent complexity of the system in which we live. For this reason, the methods and results from this science are often applied to other fields such as Chemistry, Biology or Engineering. Graduates of the MSc in Physics will have experienced a balanced but diverse period of postgraduate studies and will be qualified to find employment in a wide range of professions. Physics graduates do not only find employment in universities or research laboratories but will frequently be found in computer companies, management consultants or in the field of telecommunications. The MSc in Physics at the University of Stuttgart is taught entirely in English and takes two years (four semesters) including a one-year thesis. Upon completion of this programme you will be awarded a degree which is equivalent to the German degree of "Diplomphysiker" and a qualified graduate of this programme will be entitled to continue to study towards a doctoral degree in Physics at a German university without having to fulfil additional academic requirements. International students are offered a six-week intensive Intercultural Training programme which has a strong German component. This, together with the "Welcoming Service" of the University of Stuttgart, will provide you with the help you need when making your first steps towards starting your studies and feeling at home in a new environment.

Extractions: Chaos Theory and Nonlinear Dynamics In the latter 1950s, the late Georgia Tech physicist Joseph Ford began investigating the scientific phenomena of chaos, described by him as "deterministic randomness." Ford, the self- avowed "Evangelist of Chaos," was a pioneer in this relatively new field of science. During his decades of research in the area, he moved from an evolutionary to a revolutionary view of chaos, ultimately declaring it the key to the future of all science. Georgia Tech file photo In 1994, Georgia Tech researchers, including Dr. Scott Thornburg (above), showed for the first time that two chaotic lasers could be synchronized. He and Dr. Rajarshi Roy, former chair of the School of Physics , suggested potential communications-related applications for the work. (300-dpi JPEG version - 205k) In the 1960s, Ford conducted computer experiments that verified and extended the results of work in chaos published in the 1950s. Ford said he demonstrated that many systems exhibited such completely unexpected, wildly erratic behavior that intuition suggested scientists were observing the long-anticipated deterministic randomness in Newtonian dynamics. There was little argument against his assertions. By the late 1970s, Ford and an Italian colleague had unified disciplines ranging from astronomy to zoology in their findings related to chaos. They started a new journal of nonlinear science called

http://www.physics.ucsb.edu/Research/TPP.php3

Extractions: Particle Physics Theory G ENERAL D ESCRIPTION There have been dramatic developments in high energy theory during the past few years. The nonperturbative properties of supersymmetric gauge theories have been understood to an astonishing extent, shedding new light on the old questions of quark confinement and chiral symmetry breaking. Parallel advances have taken place in string theory, our best hope for a quantum theory of gravity. This work has led to deeper insights into the structure of string theory, and new understanding of the quantum mechanics of black holes. At more accessible energies, experimental results on many fronts (eg the top quark, neutrino masses and mixing, dark matter detection, and cosmic microwave background fluctuations) continue to provide challenges to theorists. In the next few years we expect progress in all these areas, and perhaps a few surprises as well. In addition to the work on string theory, several other topics are being addressed in our group. Robert Sugar works in the area of lattice gauge theory and hadron physics. Anthony Zee addresses problems in random matrix theory and its applications. Astroparticle physics and quantum chaos are the topics of research for Mark Srednicki. In the past several members have also worked on problems in phenomenology and experimentally accessible physics beyond the Standard Model.

Extractions: Research Interests Ratchets are devices that can make particles flow in one direction without any macroscopic forces. The "flashing ratchet" shown below is an example for how this can work. Some molecular motors in biological systems are also thought to make use of ratchet effects. In general, one means by a 'ratchet' any sort of asymmetric potential. A flashing ratchet: The random diffusion when the potential is off (t = 0.5) is converted into net motion to the left when the ratchet is switched on.

Extractions: General References It turns out that an eerie type of chaos can lurk just behind a facade of order - and yet, deep inside the chaos lurks an even eerier type of order - Douglas Hofstadter. I realize that it is difficult and frustrating when one tries to tackle a new subject, especially one as multifaceted and cross-disciplinary as the field of chaotic dynamics. I know; I was there once - awed by the immensity and complexity of the subject. Heck, I am still there, wide-eyed and all! In any case, I hope the following list of books will help you on your way to being enlightened. Feel free to email me any worthwhile additions and/or corrections at lpoon@chaos.umd.edu Help! I try to keep up with the influx of new books, but I can't do it by myself. After several requests for inclusion of more specialized texts, I have hit upon a possible solution. Instead of trying to keep up with all the new chaos books, I welcome submissions from people who feel strongly and positively about any particular book. I would appreciate it if the submission includes a short review that points out the various aspects of the book (eg. good points, bad points, intended audience, etc.) Submissions in the more specialized areas are especially welcome. I can't promise to accept all submissions, but if I do, I will give the proper acknowledgments. Direct your submissions to lpoon@chaos.umd.edu

Extractions: Physics is the scientific discipline, concerned with both fundamentals and frontiers, that attempts to understand all nature from atoms and molecules to stars and galaxies. The physicist observes natural phenomena, tries to create a mental picture or model of how the cosmos works and employs the language of mathematics to describe nature. This ebb and flow of ideas involved in gaining insights and perspectives into the interactions of natural phenomena is the study of physics. Typical subfields in physics are the study of force and motion, energy, heat, sound, electricity and magnetism, optics and laser physics, atomic and nuclear physics, astrophysics, condensed matter physics and elementary particles. In both basic research and applied areas, the physicist contributes his/her knowledge to the solution of questions encountered in all phases of human endeavor. The physics major has a wide range of options in selecting courses in mathematics, computer- science, engineering, biology, geology, education, business, etc. to accompany his or her study of physics. Thus a student can design a curriculum to meet individual career goals. A typical course of study for a physics major anticipating further graduate study in physics might take the form shown below. Many variations are possible. Note that most selections occur later in the program when the student has a better concept of career choices. The first year is quite similar to all other science and engineering curricula in order to provide the maximum flexibility.

Extractions: Guide picks Chaos theory, fractal geometry and non-linear physics are all related and you can find out how through this set of sites. Topics include the mathematics of chaos, the generation of fractal images and collections of fractals to view. Dynamics is the study of motion, forces and energy. Chaotic dynamics is a special subset of dynamics: chaotic systems show what is known as sensitivity to initial conditons. This means that two very similar starting points will rapidly begin following very different trajectories. Imagine balls rolling in a bowl, if you start tweo balls off in very slightly different positions with very slightly different velocities, they will still follow approximatly the same path for a very long time. But, if the bowl is "chaotic" (perhaps due to it's shape, or bieng shaken in someway), then even arbitrarily close initial conditions will diverge.

Extractions: work with Hawking Young Australian physicist, Dr Neil Cornish, is not going to be part of the 'brain drain'. "I'd like to eventually come back to work in Australia," he says but admits it will not be in the immediate future. Dr Cornish is heading to Cambridge to work with eminent physicist, Stephen Hawking. He's been offered a two-year postdoctral research fellowship to work at the Department of Applied Mathematics and Theoretical Physics with Hawking's gravity group and with Professor Neil Turok's cosmology group. Dr Cornish who did his Science honours degree in physics and MSc at Melbourne, is happy to be back visiting the University of Melbourne for a few months to write a book on Chaos and Fractals in General Relativity , with Dr Norm Frankel of the School of Physics. The book deals with applying fractal geometry to the geometry of nature and is designed for graduates and people doing research in this area. The project is supported by an ARC grant. Dr Cornish talks with passion about fractals and chaos explaining that his work is mostly in the strong gravity field. "That's blackholes and the very early Universe because they are both arenas for chaos," he explains. Today's Universe, he describes as smooth and admits it holds less interest for him.
