T, Th., 4:00-6:00; S.. 10:30-12:30. Professor Hancock. 10a. Theory of Errors and Method of Least Squares--Johnson. Theory of Errors and Method of Least Squares. The general theory of the adjustments of observations, with applications to triangulation and the derivation of empirical formulas from experimental data. W., 4:00-0:00; S., 8:30-9:30, first semester. Professor Slocum. 11b. Fourier's Series and Spherical Harmonics.--Byerly, Fourier's Series and Spherical Harmonics. This course is Intended as an introduction to mathematical physics. After a preliminary study of certain trigonometric series, Fourier's theorem for the development of a function into a trigonometric series is derived, and the limitations of its validity investigated. This is followed by the study of Lagrange's, Laplace's and Lame's functions, with applications to problems in heat, electricity, potential, elasticity, etc. W., 4:00-6:00; S., 8:30-9:30, second semester.
