Syllabus |
Thermodynamics. Scope, history, language. Zeroth law: temperature. First law: internal energy. Work. Thermal coefficients. Heat. Thermal capacities. Models: perfect gas, incompressible system. Calorimetry. Thermal machines. Second law: Kelvin-Planck, Clausius. Carnot Cycle. Clausius inequality. Entropy. Principle of increasing entropy. Maxwell relations, generalized Mayer and Reech, potentials. Open systems: chemical potential, Gibbs-Euler and Gibbs-Duhem equations. Phase transitions: Clausius-Clapeyron. Third law: Nernst, Planck.
Structure of Matter. Thermal radiation: Planck's law. Photoelectric effect: corpuscular nature of light (Einstein, photons). Compton Effect. Atomic structure: hydrogen atom, semiclassical Bohr model. Wave nature of matter: de Broglie hypothesis. Wave-particle duality. Heisenberg uncertainty principle. Quantum mechanics: Schrödinger equation. Electron spin. Pauli exclusion principle.

Teaching Methodologies and Assessment Criteria |
X = component classification ''laboratory'' (various reports, the average of the various X_i, i= classification
report-experience); has 40% weighting.
Y = component classification ''proof written in class; face-to-face.'' There are two frequencies; if the media of them;
each frequency is worth half for this intermediate result. OR examination(s).
I always choose the best grade between average attendance and exam, as applicable, never harm students. Y has a weighting of 60%.
The final rating is Z = o.5 * X + 0.5* Y .
Z, Y, and X from 0 to 20 values.
