Short, intensive physics/math courses

AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on finding short, intensive physics and math courses, primarily in the U.S., lasting 1-3 weeks and aimed at high undergraduate or low graduate levels. Participants suggest specific programs, including the U.S. Particle Accelerator School and resources from the Perimeter Institute, which offers graduate-level seminars and lectures. The emphasis is on in-person courses provided by universities or private companies, rather than online options. Users are encouraged to share course names and URLs for reference. The goal is to compile a comprehensive list of suitable courses for interested students.

Hello,

I'd like to create a list of short, intensive physics and/or math courses offered around the world. I'm primarily focuses on the U.S. as that is where I live but for the sake of completeness, anywhere would be good. The courses I'm looking should be short, usually 1-3 weeks in length and highly focused on a specific topic (and very intense). The level should be high undergraduate in physics or low graduate. Any math courses should be somehow related to physics or engineering. Please provide at least the name of the course, a URL would be very helpful.

Thank you very much for your time.

Eric

Thank you jedishrfu. I apologize for being a little unclear.

The courses I'm looking for should be in-person, taught at either Universities or by private companies. An example would be USPAS (U.S. Particle Accelerator School) @ http://uspas.fnal.gov/.

Thank you,
Eric
 
This is from Perimeter Institute: http://pirsa.org/search

You can achieve lots of seminars and lectures,most of them are graduate level. But there are the ones, you can find them easily, which are for the new students that will enter some kind of a qualification exam there. They are highly intense as you seek.

Hope to enjoy.
 
Assume that this is a case where by sheer coincidence, two sources of coherent single-frequency EM wave pulses with equal duration are both fired in opposing directions, with both carrying the same frequency and amplitude and orientation. These two waves meet head-on while moving in opposing directions, and their phases are precisely offset by 180 degrees so that each trough of one wave meets with the crest of the other. This should be true for both the electric and magnetic components of...
