Welcome to the Friday Seminar of the Physics & Astronomy Department!
The seminar intends to introduce students and interested faculty to topics from various fields of physics. The main purpose is to discuss in an informal setting physical concepts to which usual lectures cannot devote enough time.
The Friday Seminar takes place Fridays at 12pm, in PH1-219 (map). Pizza and drinks will be served!
An Introduction to Water Waves IV
Christian Bracher
Friday, May 9, 2008
The waves generated by disturbing the surface
of a liquid are a most familiar example of a wave
phenomenon that is, however, usually omitted in
the textbook treatment of waves. Starting out
from the principles of hydrodynamics, I will derive
some of the unusual properties of water waves.
