Professor Dave Explains
Welcome! I have a knack for explaining stuff and I want to share some knowledge with you.I received a BA in chemistry from Carleton College, and performed graduate studies in both synthetic organic chemistry and science education at Cal State Northridge, receiving an MA in the latter. Prior to this I taught for about a decade in various high school and undergraduate settings, specializing in organic chemistry but also teaching general chemistry, physics, and biology.This channel is for students at the high school and undergraduate level, but it is also for members of the general public who just...

The Standard Model of Particle Physics
Once you start learning about modern physics, you start to hear about weird particles like quarks and muons and neutrinos. What are all these things? Why are there so many? How do we know they exist? What do they do? Let's check out the standard model of particle physics.

The Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle Part 1: Position/Momentum and Schrödinger's Cat
What do you think, that Breaking Bad made up the name Heisenberg? Think again! He was an awesome physicist. He has a few things to say about what we can and can't know about the quantum world. Then we will wrap things up with the most famous cat in the world after Garfield, Schrödinger's cat.

The Diffusion Equation Part 1: Separation of Variables
After looking at the Laplace equation and the wave equation, it's time to move on to the diffusion equation. This is a parabolic partial differential equation, and it describes systems that tend to spread out over time. This has tons of practical application, so let's get into it!

Quantum Mechanics and the Schrödinger Equation
Okay, it's time to dig into quantum mechanics! Don't worry, we won't get into the math just yet, for now we just want to understand what the math represents, and come away with a new and improved view of the electron as both a circular standing wave and a cloud of probability density. Spooky! Let's introduce the Schrödinger equation!

Quantum Electrodynamics (QED)
In our study of physics, we have become aware of four forces, and the fields that mediate them. Once we got deep into quantum theory, we started to realize that these forces are not mediated by fields at all, but rather by quanta. That's why it's called quantum theory, we are showing how particles, or quanta, run the whole show. The electromagnetic force was the first one to get a facelift, so let's check out how these quantum field theories work by looking at quantum electrodynamics!

Power Series Solutions Part 2: Frobenius Method
We just learned how to solve differential equations using power series. However the simpler approached we used assumed that all the functions involved are infinitely differentiable at the point we are expanding about. This will not always be the case, and a common workaround in situations where the previous approach does not work is called the Frobenius method. Let's see how this works now!

Reacting to Quantum Mystic "Higher Frequency" Self-Help Rubbish
Some jerk named Robert Edward Grant spewed a bunch of quantum mysticism crap about "moving into higher frequencies", which is literally meaningless, and some idiotic channel named Video Advice made a garbage animation to go along with it. What resulted was 15-minutes of nausea-inducing, transparently pseudoscientific self-help snake oil. So let's make fun of it for an hour.

General Relativity: The Curvature of Spacetime
Relativity comes in different flavors, as it happens. We spent some time looking at Einstein's special relativity, so now it's time for the general variety. This is all about the geometry of spacetime, which curves around massive objects. This was a huge update on our understanding of gravity, so get on board!

Ancient Rome Part 3: The Later Empire (250 – 500 CE)
After the crisis of the third century, the later Roman Empire took shape. This period involved many different leaders, great political change, and the eventual splintering of the empire into Western and Eastern halves, the former of which would eventually dissolve, and the latter of which would become the Byzantine empire. Let's go through the details!

Complex Numbers: Operations, Complex Conjugates, and the Linear Factorization Theorem
In getting through algebra, we never talked about complex numbers, but they are important so let's discuss them now! These are numbers with a real component and an imaginary component, so we first have to understand what i means, in a mathematical context. It's the square root of negative one. Then we need to learn how to do arithmetic with these expressions, and finally we can understand how we get answers in this form when using the quadratic formula but with a negative discriminant. Much to discuss, check this out!
