Unfortunately, it is often the case that solving the theory's equations ab initio in order to produce a useful prediction is not practical.

Computational physics - Definition Computational physics is the study and implementation of numerical algorithms in order to solve problems in physics for which a quantitative theory already exists. Physicists often have a very precise mathematical theory describing how a system will behave. Unfortunately, it is often the case that solving the theory's equations ab-initio in order to produce a useful prediction is not realistic. This is especially true with quantum mechanics , where only a handful of simple models can be solved exactly. This is where the computational physicist steps in. Challenges in Computational Physics Physics problems are in general very difficult to solve exactly. Even apparently simple problems, such as calculating the wavefunction of an electron orbiting an atom in a strong electric field , may require great effort to formulate a practical algorithm (if one can be found). In addition, the computational cost of solving quantum mechanical problems is generally exponential in the size of the system (see computational complexity theory Applications of Computational Physics Computational methods are widely used in solid state physics fluid mechanics and lattice quantum chromodynamics among other areas. Computational physics borrows a number of ideas from

Why "Computational Physics". Novadays, it has become more and more important in all fields of science to check the results of theoretical considerations, or to simulate the processes in physical, chemical or technical systems by means of computers. This, together with the ever accelerating development of more powerful computer systems, has brough forth a vast range of possibilities for all branches of numerical system modelling. Today, computational facilities that could in former days only be used by a very limited range of persons have become widely availbale.An average personal computer is now fast and powerful enough to handle many mathematical tasks which formerly could only be processed by expensive systems which therefore were unavailable to students in most cases. The enormous chances arising from this development must not be neglected in current universitarian education.

Computational Physics Education This web-server is maintained for the purposes of several computational physics classes at Michigan State University . It is intended to give information to students and the faculty involved in teaching computational physics. The webserver is not intended to replace the main Physics Department server , but rather provide web-tools experience to interested students and faculty and enable some more serious computational services that require the use of our main Linux teaching cluster in Giltner Hall , room 346. The following course web-pages are referenced and partly hosted on this server: Physics Computations Course Series: Computational Physics Courses: High Performance Computing: Fortran 77/90/95/2000 High Performance Fortran This server will soon be ported to the Linux server in Giltner 346 , gauss, and thus integrate more closely teaching instruction with the web. The web-server is maintained by Aleksandar Donev , supervised by Dr. Phil Duxbury , with valuable help from Computer Services and others involved.

PRODUCTS Mathematica Mathematica Home Edition Mathematica for Students ... Give us feedback Sign up for our newsletter: Computational Physics Dr. Paul Abbott at the University of Western Australia teaches a third-year, undergraduate-level computational physics course. The broad categories of computational physics are simulation, visualization, and modeling. At a finer scale, computational physics embraces a wide range of areas including numerical methods, algorithms, and data analysis. Simulation and modeling are usually taught by stressing numerical techniques. Dr. Abbott's course focuses on symbolic computation, using Mathematica in particular. The course has two objectives: To use computers as an aid to understanding real physical systems To learn efficient methods for the analysis of these systems Power and Convenience Dr. Abbott uses Mathematica for computer presentation and demos in all of his lectures and in assignments for his second-year courses, Electromagnetism and Biophysics Data Analysis, and for his fourth-year Wavelets Honours Module (including the exams and the exam solutions). In addition, he gives two third-year, laboratory-based courses, Computational Physics and Computational Biophysics, each consisting of a set of Mathematica notebooks.
