Thank you George, that's the kind of book I am looking for:partytime:
You are right PeroK, I have not made myself clear enough perhaps. Basically, I am looking for the map of physics (more fundamental than theoretical) but in a book describing all the fundamental theories/sub-theories and their...
Thank you for this suggestion. From what I have seen it is more of a typical physics book focusing on particles physics. I was more looking for a book containing an overview of the tree linking all current theories in physics with their fundamental interactions rather than exploring one specific...
Yes that can sound paradoxical but as a mentionned everything was taught in a compartmentalized way. Also, it is precisely because there are so many different resources online that I posted in this forum to ask about such a "reference book".
So far I have not found such a book. I studied each branch of theoretical physics and the fundamental interactions in a quite compartmentalized way. I had a module on subatomic physics with one professor, another module in quantum physics with a different professor and some classes in optics...
Hi,
I am looking for a book exploring the current theories of physics and their fundamental interactions. As we know, each fundamental theory is associated to a specific interaction. I wish to explore this tree of theories and see their links.
Thank you
Thank you:) I might need to order some communication and PR books...
Would you say that something like "Would you please be able to elaborate for my PhD application a letter of recommendation that highlights my ability to undetake research at doctorate level.." would be ok?
Hi, thank you for your reply. The thing is that I feel a bit worried that the letter will not be complete enough and I really want it to boost my PhD application. Also, I have had a past experience where a letter of recommendation written for my application was really minimal and without enough...
Hi, I am aware that I do not have access to those letters. Most of the uni I have checked provide some guidelines with the kind of recommendation they prefer. The thing is that guidelines are not always very specific and it's a bit similar to cover letters where some get a "go" and others get a...
Hi, I am planning to request some letters of recommendation for a PhD theoretical physics application. Could you please adivse on specific elements that will make the perfect letter with the best chance of getting offers. For instance is could be about my soft skills, my undergrad grades and...
Hi,
Thank you for the detailed answers.
Honestly, for 2, it will definitely be an issue for me since I already have a Master’s degree which was 2 years full-time in 2016 so my priority is to jump into PhD research. Furthermore, I also noticed that the knowledge we get during the Master’s does...
Hello,
I have several questions around the application process as well as the organization.
1. Are you aware of any reference website centralizing PhD offers by countries?
2.When it comes to the organization/management/ supervision of a PhD program, I wonder if there are differences by...
Thanks. At the moment my mind is thinking about MIT, Princeton, Harvard, Stanford, Cornell... Basically all the big ones. It is true that they all have very prestigious theoretical physics departments but as I learned in this forum, I need to focus mainly on the international academic expertise...
