Crash Courses in Physics Topics?

AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on the search for free online crash courses in various physics topics, specifically looking for PDFs that include good examples for effective learning. A recommendation is made for Benjamin Crowell's ebooks available at lightandmatter.com, which cover classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, and theories of relativity. However, there is a noted difficulty in finding resources specifically for quantum mechanics and Lagrangian mechanics. The request emphasizes the importance of examples in the learning process.

Does anyone know of any "crash courses" in various physics topics such as classical mechanics, quantum mechanics, theories of relativity, field theories, etc free online? By "crash courses" I mean PDF's for example with good examples, since I learn the quickest with examples. I know it is rather specific but if anyone knows that would be great. I only ask if you are already familiar with some and would like to recommend them to me, I'm not asking anyone to google for me. Thanks.

Thanks! I cannot seem to find quantum mechanics or lagrangian mechanics anywhere though?
 

Thread 'Hepth programs in Europe'

After a year of thought, I decided to adjust my ratio for applying the US/EU(+UK) schools. I mostly focused on the US schools before, but things are getting complex and I found out that Europe is also a good place to study. I found some institutes that have professors with similar interests. But gaining the information is much harder than US schools (like you have to contact professors in advance etc). For your information, I have B.S. in engineering (low GPA: 3.2/4.0) in Asia - one SCI...

Thread 'Should I pursue a masters degree after 4.5 years working in IT?'

I graduated with a BSc in Physics in 2020. Since there were limited opportunities in my country (mostly teaching), I decided to improve my programming skills and began working in IT, first as a software engineer and later as a quality assurance engineer, where I’ve now spent about 3 years. While this career path has provided financial stability, I’ve realized that my excitement and passion aren’t really there, unlike what I felt when studying or doing research in physics. Working in IT...

Thread 'Tips for a CS and physics major'

Hello, I’m an undergraduate student pursuing degrees in both computer science and physics. I was wondering if anyone here has graduated with these degrees and applied to a physics graduate program. I’m curious about how graduate programs evaluated your applications. In addition, if I’m interested in doing research in quantum fields related to materials or computational physics, what kinds of undergraduate research experiences would be most valuable?
