  2. Lecture 10 of Leonard Susskind's Modern Physics course concentrating on Quantum Mechanics. Recorded March 17, 2008 at Stanford University.

  3. Scheme Memory Model - How Scheme Instructions Synthesize Linked Lists Behind the Scenes and Perform Operations on Them, Two Different Ways of Laying Out A List In Memory, One With Memory Aliasing and One Without, The Scheme Equivalent of "..." (Functions With Multiple Arguments), Writing A Generic Map Function, Modifying the Unary-Map Function to Handle Multiple Arguments By Adding A . to the List of Arguments, Extending Unary-Map to An N-...more

  4. Professor Barry Sharpless of Scripps describes the Nobel-prizewinning development of titanium-based catalysts for stereoselective oxidation, the mechanism of their reactions, and their use in preparing esomeprazole. Conformational energy of cyclic alkanes illustrates the use of molecular mechanics.

  5. More on the mechanics of shorting stock.

  6. March 30, 2009 - Leonard Susskind discusses the study of statistical analysis as calculating the probability of things subject to the constraints of a conserved quantity. Susskind introduces energy, entropy, temperature, and phase states as they relate directly to statistical mechanics.

  7. April 6, 2009 - Leonard Susskind overviews elementary mathematics to define a method for understanding statistical mechanics.

  8. April 13, 2009 - Leonard Susskind reviews the Lagrange multiplier, explains Boltzmann distribution and Helm-Holtz free energy before oulining into the theory of fluctuations.

  9. April 20, 2009 - Leonard Susskind explains how to calculate and define pressure, explores the formulas some of applications of Helm-Holtz free energy, and discusses the importance of the partition function.

  10. May 25, 2009 - Leonard Susskind picks up on magnets, phase transitions, and mean field transitions. He goes on to explain chemical potential.

  11. April 27, 2009 - Leonard Susskind discusses the basic physics of the diatomic molecule and why you don't have to worry about its structure at low temperature. Susskind later explores a black hole thermodynamics.

  12. May 4, 2009 - Leonard Susskind explains the second law of thermodynamics, illustrates chaos, and discusses how the volume of phase space grows.
