Classical Mechanics Notes needed:

Click For Summary
The discussion centers on a request for assistance with Classical Mechanics, particularly focusing on Lagrangian and Hamiltonian mechanics. The individual, having a BSc in Physics, expresses difficulty in understanding the subject and seeks basic materials, notes, or slides to aid in their learning. They specifically ask for resources other than books, citing challenges with Goldstein's text. A recommendation is made for David Tong's notes, which are noted for their clarity. Additionally, it is advised that solving problem sets is crucial for effective self-study in this area.

Hello Seniors,
I have done BSc in Physics but couldn't take lectures of Classical Mechanics. I am Almost blind in this subject. Since it's a core course in Physics, so i need your help to understand the basics in this course. If anyone of you have any helping material/notes/slides etc which contains the basics concepts and topics of Classical mechanics please share it with me. I am mostly keen to understand LAGRANGE and HAMILTONIAN. how to make lagrange or hamiltonian of some system? Seniors please Help.

Please don't recommend Books, I have tried goldstein but its too much difficult to prepare it from any book. Thanks

Thread 'Pre-req for Ultrafast Optics? (Jackson or Zangwill for Electrodynamics?)'

TL;DR: Jackson or Zangwill for Electrodynamics? Hi, I want to learn ultrafast optics and I am interested in condensed matter physics, ie using ultrafast optics in condensed matter systems. However, before I get onto ultrafast optics I need to improve my electrodynamics knowledge. Should I study Jackson or Zangwill for Electrodynamics? My level at the moment is Griffiths. Given my interest in ultrafast optics in condensed matter, I am not sure which book is better suited for me. If...
