Module title:Electromagnetism and Quantum Mechanics
Module codePHY3055
Module lecturers:Dr E. Mariani
Module credits:15

This module is taken by BSc students in stage 3. It develops students' knowledge of electromagnetism, quantum mechanics and illustrates the aspects in common and relationships between the two areas. It builds on the Stage 2 core modules PHY2021 (Electromagnetism I) and PHY2022 (Quantum Mechanics I). The starting point is the Maxwell equations introduced in PHY2021 , which are manipulated to obtain the electromagnetic wave equation and the form of the solutions.

Please note that all modules are subject to change, please get in touch if you have any questions about this module.
