2007 Winter, The Music of Quantum Physics

Rolling ripples of water on the surface of a pond, the brilliant colors of a deep rainbow, and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony all come to us in the form of waves. While we all appreciate the beauty of these experiences in life without caring about the underlying physics, they become even more beautiful when we dive into the simple physical and mathematical description of such waves.
The second lecture will continue the journey into the strangest and most universal wave phenomena of all -- quantum mechanics.
